Liang Lidong discovered that this Rex seemed to be trying to irritate him all the time, and the reason was unknown. Now he actually wants to run on him with words and use him as a subordinate. This is already another kind of ridicule in disguise, because of the talent of 'noble temperament', most people will unquestionably regard Liang Lidong as a nobleman, if there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates, and if there is no great Due to the disparity in titles, a nobleman is regarded as someone else's subordinate for no reason, which is a great discrimination in itself.
Liang Lidong looked at Rex, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his eyes curled up with a smile, like a fox with malicious intentions: "Oh, Your Excellency Emma, how do you want me to cooperate with you?"
"In my family, there are also a few professionals. They are clan guards who have been trained since childhood." Rex leaned forward slightly, as if wanting to put pressure on the opponent: "If you can cooperate with our clan guards, It is not difficult for me to eliminate the enemy's assassins."
The so-called clan guards are actually dead warriors cultivated by a family since childhood. They are absolutely loyal to the family, and if their contributions are high enough, they can even become part of the family, changing from slaves to masters. The underlying meaning of Rex's remarks is that Liang Lidong will become his clan guard, but anyone with a bit of self-respect will not be able to bear this kind of suggestion that seems to have no problem, but actually hides sinister intentions.
Sure enough, when these words came out, the city lord Uther looked a little ugly. It wasn't that he was facing Liang Lidong in his heart, but that the foreign enemies were imminent. If they were still fighting openly and secretly, it would be tantamount to half of their output. The other two nobles looked a little excited, as if they were in the rhythm of watching a play.
Liang Lidong became more and more sure, the triangular eyes seemed to want to irritate himself, he smiled and said: "Your Excellency Emma's suggestion is good, but there is a small point that needs to be revised. In terms of identity, your clan guard should accept my proposal." Commander, how about your Excellency, as long as you stand behind and watch the show, I will find a way to solve the enemy's assassin, what do you think?"
Since the other party has bad intentions, Liang Lidong doesn't want to make the other party happy. The other party wants to force him to get angry, but he just keeps calm. And he noticed just now that when Rex said those words, the guards behind him moved back, as if they wanted to do something, but they stopped when they saw that Liang Lidong was not angry.
Since the other party wants him to fight, Liang Lidong will deprive the other party of his command. Because Liang Lidong is a player, his world view is very different, and he doesn't have the so-called noble dignity, so trying to use this method to make him angry is tantamount to lighting a fire in the mud, which is simply impossible. Seeing that Liang Lidong didn't get angry, Rex himself got a little angry: "Hmph, the clan guard of my family, when will it be the turn of outsiders to command?"
"Hehe, then I am a dignified spellcaster, when is it my turn to assist the clan guards?" Liang Lidong said this lightly, even with a smile on his face, but there was a sense of sarcasm in it : "As far as I know, the highest title in a border city should be the Earl, but Your Excellency Rex's style is so imposing that even the Lord of the City can hardly match it, so it must be the Duke."
Rex suddenly jumped up angrily, pointing at Liang Lidong, trembling non-stop. Then Liang Lidong continued: "I heard that people are prone to strokes when they are old. People with strokes will keep shaking hands and feet... Your Excellency Rex, since you are old, stop wandering around, go home and have a good rest , these hard work are tiring, wouldn't it be good to let the younger generation in the family do it for you, or do you feel that the position of patriarch is comfortable and you don't want to give it up?"
Liang Lidong's words were a bit vicious... But the other people in the room smiled when they heard it, as if Liang Lidong's words had touched their point of laughter.
And Rex's reaction was even more exaggerated. He yelled with his face flushed, slapped the table vigorously, and cursed: "Beta, you bully too much, you really think my Emma family is easy to bully? Don't think you You have the city lord to back you up..."
The city lord Uther coughed and interrupted: "First of all, let me state something, Your Excellency Rex, I will not get involved in the personal grievances between you and Beta."
Liang Lidong then smiled and said: "Since it's a personal grievance, Sir Rex, how about we have an honor duel?"
The so-called duel of honor is an extreme solution to the irreconcilable conflict between two nobles. Each of the two families sends one person out. Under the witness of many nobles, the duel is fair. The loser must donate one-third of the land to the winner, and he must take the initiative to avoid the winner when he meets the winner in public.
"This is an outdated custom, I don't need to promise you." Rex said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, let's put personal grievances aside for now." Uther clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention to himself, and then he said: "Because there are many assassins at the Temple of Life, I suggest that everyone They all live in our city lord's mansion. This place is heavily guarded, and there is Lord Beta in charge, so I think it should be very safe here. Of course, if someone has a better method, you can tell it. We can refer to it. Anyway, we just need to Hold on for about three months, and when summer comes, victory will be ours."
Liang Lidong listened to Uther's words, looked at Rex, and saw that his face was red and blue, he must have been extremely angry, but he still endured it and did not leave. This made Liang Lidong feel more and more that this guy had some intentions, but what kind of thing, he had to be provoked to get angry to have any effect! After much deliberation, Liang Lidong couldn't figure it out either.
It is also a feasible method for Uther to let everyone live in the castle first. Although the assassins are also a certain threat during the day, their home field is at night. As long as it is a human being, there is always a time to doze off at night. Although Liang Lidong can see through all illusions, he can't guarantee that he will not relax. There is only a thousand days to be a thief, so there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days, but here, because it is a military fortress, it is heavily guarded, even if it is an assassin, it is extremely difficult to get in.
Besides, Barbara will soon be contracted as a magic pet. Cats are nocturnal animals, and they have special bonuses in stealth and anti-stealth, and they have a strong sense of territory. They are very suitable as night guards.
So Liang Lidong naturally agreed with this suggestion. He doesn't know how much advantage the Temple of Life has in the open and secret battle with the city lord, but as a weak person, it is a wise decision to stick to the existing resources and position.
"Since everyone agrees with my judgment, please choose the floor you want to live in." Uther stood up: "After the decision is made, I will immediately bring your family members to the castle. Of course, everyone The private soldiers can only live in the barracks."
The middle-aged fat man of the Mu Jinhua family smiled and said: "It should be so... I don't know much about the height of command in battle. Since my private soldiers will live in the barracks for a while, how about letting the city lord command them temporarily?"
Uther's eyes lit up, he liked this kind of interesting people the most: "Okay, I promise I will treat everyone equally."
"Then I'll choose the fourth floor." The middle-aged fat man stood up: "Now I'll go and see where I will be in the next three months. Is there any problem?"
"Please." Uther stood up and gestured.
The middle-aged fat man nodded, put his hands behind his back, and left slowly. After that, Rex and Wood chose the fifth floor and the sixth floor respectively, but they did not say that they would hand over the private soldiers to the city lord to command. After they left, Uther snorted lightly, and then asked Liang Lidong: "Where do you plan to live, now there are only the fifth and seventh floors."
"Where did Karl live when he was here?"
"On the seventh floor, there is a magic experimental type that he specially built."
Liang Lidong replied: "Then I will live there."
"This is not very good, is it too unlucky!" Uther looked a little embarrassed.
Liang Lidong said with a smile: "Soul is just a kind of energy to put it bluntly. Before I was alive, Karl was not my opponent. Even if his soul wanders in this world, I am not afraid of him at all. The soul that lost the protection of the body, the fighting ability Reduce it by at least half."
"It's up to you." Uther shrugged slightly.
Liang Lidong also didn't want to be alone with Uther for too long. He left the room and walked up the stairs, but he didn't go directly to the seventh floor, but went to the fourth floor silently. Then he was in the corridor on the fourth floor, and saw the middle-aged fat man standing in front of the window looking down at the scenery.
"What did you call me here for?" Liang Lidong walked over and asked.
The middle-aged fat man turned his head: "You really can understand the sign gestures of our Mu Jinhua family."
"Nonsense, I came up with this set of gestures..." Liang Lidong was suddenly stunned, because he was thinking about Rex's problem and didn't pay attention to it, but now he felt something was wrong. The gesture code he came up with should only exist in the game, why is the Mu Jinhua family in the real world also using it!
