Chapter 503: That's right, it's a slap in the face
Chapter 503 is right, it's a slap in the face
"I mean, you're here to be funny, aren't you?"
Leitch's words can be said to be scorched by everyone present, including Susan and Sandra Rhea, both of whom couldn't help but glance at Leitch who was smiling at the moment - this is simply a **** slap in the face!
The faces of the Antonians behind Aubrey were as black as carbon, and Aubrey was also gloomy, but in his heart, he couldn't help but snicker with a hint of ecstasy--what he wanted to see most was that Leitch and the clan had a complete falling out! In the past, Leitch gave him a feeling as slippery as a loach, and he was young, but the city was as deep as the Great Rift Valley of the Abyss Territory! Although he had always had the intention of targeting the other party, he also had a feeling that he couldn't speak! But at this moment, Leitch's words offended almost everyone present, was he really young and frivolous? If he can't seize this opportunity, he will be too sorry for the importance of that one!
I saw Aubrey's face sink and said: "What do you mean by this, do you look down on us people? For the sake of the future of the territory, we took the trouble to come over to inquire about the intentions of the Viscount, is this funny in the eyes of the Viscount?!"
Hearing Aubrey say this, some of the Antonians who came with Aubrey immediately glared at Leech angrily, as if they had really been wronged! However, these people seemed to have forgotten that the purpose of their original 'seeking' of Leitch was not as noble as Aubrey said at this moment......
However, it can also be seen from this that Aubrey really has a bit of a talent for oratory, and easily brings some people into his context.
In response to Aubrey's questioning, and the glaring glances of the other Antonians, Rich's face remained calm, and even the smile on his lips did not diminish in the slightest. I saw Lei Qi said lightly: "How to say it, I just suddenly felt that you people are really annoying." ”
Hearing this, the sudden silence of the needle drop in the study could be heard, and at the same time, all the Antonians seemed to feel a "snap-" slap in their faces, making them feel that their cheeks were hot!
Leitch didn't seem to notice the sudden tension in the slightest, and still said to himself: "First of all, well, it's a matter of dignity - it seems that you feel that I have been slapped in the face, and I feel that I am trampling on your dignity?"
Then everyone saw Ricky grinning and said, "If you really have to think like that, it's not impossible - well, yes, I did slap you in the face." ”
"You?!"
"Don't be too arrogant!"
"Qiang—"
However, these people could not continue, as if everyone had been suddenly choked by the throat, and the words were stuck in their throats—at this time, above all of them, hung a huge demonic scythe! Although everyone could see that this demonic scythe was only a projection of a weapon, the spilled out of the scythe. The kind of killing machine that can irritate their skin, they have no doubt that if the light and shadow above their heads fall, it can cut all of them to pieces, including the strongest Aubrey!
"I'm not the kind of person who likes to bully, but many of you seem to believe that big fists are the last word, so I can only show your big fists first, and then let you listen to me. As he spoke, he saw Leech shrug his shoulders slightly and said, "And you're all quiet, don't you, it seems that you really like to listen to me." ”
"Giggle-"
Seeing this, Susan laughed coquettishly without any scruples, and the two female guards standing at the door turned their bodies with 'hard' faces, and even Sandra Leia's expression on Leitch's face was a little weird......
However, the faces of these people in Aubrey are not so good-looking (there is no need to mention the fact that they are congenitally ugly), at this time they are undoubtedly the fish on the 'chopping board' of Leitch, and it is strange that their faces can be good-looking!
"To me, you're like a bunch of flies that only 'buzz' and scream, and you like to fly around in front of me every now and then, which is very annoying. If I'm a little more ruthless, I'd better slap you all here. ”
Seeing that Leqi raised his head slightly at this time and glanced at the demon scythe hanging on the roof, all the Antonia people swallowed and spat with difficulty, they were really worried, if Leqi really wanted to make any wind, they would really explain it all here!
"Maybe some of you are secretly laughing at me for just blowing nonsense, then I can only say that you don't recognize the reality at all - think about how many troops are in Purgatory City now, and how many of these forces are in my hands, and even if I do pinch you to death, Mavis will never embarrass me, and I absolutely trust my wife in this. ”
"In other words, whether you consider yourself the 'master' of Starmist Valley or not, in fact, as long as I am willing, with the strength in my current hands and my prestige in Starfog Valley, I can easily control the entire Starfog Valley in my hands, and at the same time erase your obstructive existence!" As he spoke, Leitch smiled again, that smile was as sunny and charming as usual, but in the eyes of the Antonia people present, it was simply the grin of an ogre that could cause nightmares!
"So you should be glad that I'm not like that, and as I promised, I won't be in the land of Starfog Valley, and in the future I will let me and one of the descendants of Mavis inherit the land, and at the same time carry on Antonia's surname, this will not change!. ”
It was not the first time that Leitch had made such a promise, but not many Antonians had taken it to heart in the past, thinking that this Viscount was really good at saying beautiful things, but now that he was being put on the head with a knife, they made Leitch's words seem extremely sincere, and even made some people feel a little guilty in their hearts - this is the common saying 'lead and don't go', urine sex......
"Susan, put the knife away, I see that some people have to look up at the roof from time to time when they listen to me, so it should be strangely tiring. ”
Leitch's words made many people laugh, but when they saw that Susan really put away the demon scythe according to Leitch's order, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief - the feeling of being held to the head with a knife is really uncomfortable!
"Don't blame me for being angry, because you who broke into my study didn't care about respecting me at all. Although I don't really care about this myself, I want you to remember that this is not only my study, but also a place for me to study and think, and even where many important decisions are made! Luck gave them a faint look.
"Of course, of course!"
"Definitely, definitely!"
Most of them didn't say anything, but there were a few who echoed it, and these few were obviously a little thicker than the others, and at the same time undoubtedly meant to ease the atmosphere.
However, no one thinks that Leitch is making a big fuss - with Leitch's self-awakening so far, in less than two years, he has broken through to the fourth-order battle mage, and no one will question his talent and ability! And a series of big actions such as proposing the Eight Virtues of Knights and creating the 'Iron Vault', no one can deny Leitch's vision and courage! Therefore, the 'place of learning and thinking', this may not be worth mentioning on others, but if it is Leqi, it really can't be ignored!
In fact, when he heard Leitch call the study 'a place of learning and perspective,' Aubrey glanced at the study without a trace, and a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes.
"As for the purpose of your coming to me, don't be afraid to say something vulgar - look at your ass pouting, and I will know what kind of si you pull!"
As members of the Antonia clan, these people can definitely be regarded as nobles with good roots! Although even nobles, there are many people who sometimes have bad words with others, but they really can't talk like Leitch! So for a while, many people scolded Leitch in their hearts for being vulgar!
"If I'm not mistaken, you must have come for the 30,000 mercenaries in the city. Leitch said suddenly.
Leitch's straightforwardness made many people look surprised, and at the same time, they couldn't help but sigh at Leitch's quick mind - Aubrey organized them in the first place under this name! Of course, this does not mean that they can't have other ideas......
"Lord Viscount, it's understandable that we have to worry about this, right?" At this time, it was Aubrey who stood up and said, "As far as we know, Lord Viscount hired these mercenaries at double the salary of ordinary troops, and all of them are mercenaries above the elite level, this is not a small amount! Now that these mercenaries have been in the Heavenly Lyre Holy City for half a month, we still don't know anything about the purpose of the Lord Viscount's hiring of these mercenaries, shouldn't we be worried?"
"In addition, as far as we know, as the situation in the Roland Empire is eroded, Elliott, the new archdeacon of the Red Demon Empire, is leading the Order of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre to invade the Roland Empire, which is also an opportunity for the Federation! Based on the relationship between the Viscount and the Grand Duke, can we assume that the Lord is also preparing for this upcoming battle?"
"Take our money to fight for others, we don't do this kind of loss-making business!"
"That's it, Lord Viscount, don't just think about selling to the Grand Duke!"
……
These people seemed to have forgotten the demonic scythe that hung above their heads just now, and all kinds of yin and yang strange sounds burst out for a while! This made the two female guards guarding the door almost wish that the big scythe just now could appear again and hack to death all these guys who were even more poisonous than women!
"Military spending is still secondary, if we blindly dwell on money, it is estimated that the viscount will complain about our stinginess again. However, there are some things I have to warn the Viscount, if the Lord is ready to participate in this battle, it will definitely drag Starmisty Valley into the quagmire of war, and then this rich territory will be destroyed!" Aubrey said with a completely elder attitude.
Although Aubrey's gesture was a posturing in the eyes of Susan and Sandra Leia, they had to admit that he said it beautifully, especially when it touched the death of the other Antonians present - they didn't want to be dragged into the flames of war!
Leitch's face remained unchanged and said: "First of all, I have to admit that the 30,000 mercenaries I hired temporarily are indeed paid with double salaries, but at the same time, I also declare that I have not spent even a single copper coin from the Antonia family's treasury, and this military expenditure is entirely borne by me! You don't need to doubt this, it is not difficult for you to find out." ”
"As for the purpose of these 30,000 mercenaries, I don't think I need to explain it to you, because this is a war secret!" As he spoke, he saw Leqi's voice change suddenly, and there was even a hint of sneer on his face, "Also, I want you to be clear-not because my actions may cause war for Starfog Valley, but because the Federation is currently in a state of war! And with the geographical location of Starfog Valley, war is inevitable! So be sober, this is not the time to deceive yourself!"
Leitch's words made many people blush secretly, but some people didn't think so - some people are like this, they don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, that's not fake at all!
"Finally, let me give you another reminder - I know that many of you must have come not only for the '30,000 mercenaries', but also out of personal dissatisfaction with me - for example, you have not been able to get the benefits from the Black Wind Chamber of Commerce and the Iron Vault that satisfy you!" Leitch's straightforwardness made many people's expressions suddenly look a little unnatural.
"I know that some of you have always looked down on me and thought that I was an outsider after all, so they always like to pick and choose from me, always on the lookout for me to see if I have spent your Antonia family's fortune indiscriminately—I must say, you are pathetic like this! And to put it mildly, maybe your Antonia family does have a lot of savings, but whether I use them or not, they have nothing to do with you, and at most you just look at them red-this is the sorrow of the incompetent!"
"As for you wanting to absorb the benefits of the Black Wind Chamber of Commerce and the Iron Vault, okay, that's no problem at all! I can tell you frankly that I am indeed short of people now, lacking talents in all aspects; even if you are not a talent, as long as you are not a waste, there is a place for use! And from another point of view, you are my relatives, which gives you an innate advantage over others! So as long as you can prove your worth, then I will give you a stage that is enough to perform! But if you still blindly stumble on me in the future, then don't blame me for not being emotional!" Facing Leech's shining gaze, he was stunned to let these veteran characters who have lived for hundreds or even hundreds of years involuntarily bow their heads!
At that moment, Angelina walked in from outside with graceful steps, walked up to Leitch as if no one was around, whispered a few words to Leitch's ear, and then stood quietly to the side.
Then the Antonians heard Leech say, "Well, if it's all right, go back, and now I have a guest to meet." ”
