"That's all?" After a while, Zhong Tu, who had listened to the magician's narration, asked with a little dissatisfaction.

"That's all." The magician replied cautiously, nervously.

"In that case, then you are useless, go and be with those companions of yours." Zhong Tu said with a smile.

"Wait, you can't kill me! Didn't you promise me that as long as I told you what I knew, you would let me live! You can't break your word! Immediately, the magician panicked, and screamed as he prepared his magic to resist.

"Really? Did I say that? Sorry, I'm not impressed. Zhong Tu said lightly.

Let's not say that he has never made a similar promise to the other party before, and even if he does, he has no idea of recruiting this kind of guy who has no use value, has soft bones, and looks like a future traitor to be located, so instead of keeping it to contribute to others and exposing his own information, it is better to kill it and save trouble.

After all, they have already killed all of the other party's companions, how can it be lonely to leave such a number one again?

This is not in line with the civilized spirit of a harmonious society.

After all, it's better to be neat and tidy as a family or something.

After that, as soon as the palm of the hand was stretched, the powerful energy collided with the magical power outside the magician's body, neutralized and annihilated each other, directly causing a big opening on the magician's magic barrier, and then Zhong Tu's palm drove straight in, like cutting into the magician's chest like cutting into cream, and with a pull, a blood-colored heart that was still alive was pulled out of the magician's chest by Zhong Tu, and the five fingers were closed, pinched into pieces in the magician's desperate eyes, and burned into ashes.

"Remember to be a good person in the next life."

Then Zhong Tu ignored the magician who was still breathless, and his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the latter's eyes.

……

Sure enough, compared to the means of transportation in the magic world, it is more pleasant to travel by space transfer. No, just after nightfall, Zhong Tu appeared in the Ferrari Barony next to the town of Blackstone Mountain, where he was about to take office, and stayed in an inn in the Barony's direct territory.

"It's just a good time to take this opportunity to get a good look at the situation around here."

Turning into a bored traveler, Chung Tu went into the only tavern in the territory, passing the time with rye wine that tasted worse than beer, and learning about the Barony of Ferrari and the surrounding towns and powers through the gossip of the inhabitants around him.

As a result, there was not much news, but judging by what was heard, it was bad.

Below the per capita poverty line, not to mention that they can't eat enough, they don't have warm clothes, and their lives are still unstable, basically every time the winter comes, a group of goblins will rush out of the Blackstone Mountain near the left side of the Black Rock Mountain town, robbing people and food, and robbing everything they think can be eaten.

Therefore, the number of unnatural deaths every year is quite high, basically more than two-thirds of them die in the sack of goblins, so even in the entire Marquis of Marde, the town of Blackstone Mountain is notoriously poor, and no one has been willing to come. No wonder Zhong Tu was able to buy off the Marquis so easily, and then was arranged to be a real knight and mayor.

Why is there a fire pit on this side of Blackstone Mountain?

However, if you think about it carefully, it is normal, after all, territory is a precious resource, even if it is abolished, there is no reason to grant it to people indiscriminately, let alone buy it through money? If it weren't for the fact that the poor couldn't open the pot, no nobleman with his brain still online would do such a thing. So being cheated was completely expected.

In addition, the town of Blackstone Mountain is still a three-way area, and the Ferrari Baron thinks it is too chaotic - not only because of the problems of Blackstone Mountain, but also because the townspeople of Blackstone Mountain are not simple, they are all extremely vicious, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bandit, so as long as the residents of Blackstone Mountain Town do not attack his territory, even if the group of people are all starved to death, he will not have the slightest sympathy.

At the same time, there are many alien races on Blackstone Mountain, in addition to organized and tribal goblins, there are cavemen and goblins underground, and the resources on the ground are poor, and I don't know what these alien races rely on to survive.

Devouring each other?

"Tsk, what a 'good place'." Knowing the situation in the town of Black Rock Mountain, Zhong Tu muttered speechlessly.

But I didn't pay much attention to it. Isn't it just the poor mountains and bad rivers and the people, plus a group of aliens who rely on humans for food to live, that's not a thing! The former can be smashed down with piles of money and all kinds of gold bars, and he doesn't believe that he can't change the situation here. The latter he has the power of force, and he may not be able to move mountains and reclaim the sea now, but there is no problem in destroying the race.

What's more, there is a good saying, so that money can make ghosts grind, and if it doesn't work, he can still spend money to ask mercenaries to clear the mountain, and if it goes down in a few waves, he doesn't believe that the black stone mountain is not clean.

In this way, as long as it is managed properly, Blackstone Mountain can completely become Zhong Tu's foothold in this world, and become the basis for him to influence the world and change the course of the world to earn source power!

Chung Tu then left the tavern and returned to the inn to rest.

The night was fine, and the next day came in a blink of an eye.

In the morning, Zhong Tu went to the castle of the Ferrari Baron with the certificate issued to him by the Marquis de Marde, and met the owner of the domain, as well as his future neighbor, Mr. Baron, who had a license plate and surname.

A decent aristocratic costume, with a hair ornament on his head, is very much like a European medieval aristocratic lord.

But what does it taste......

It's not satisfactory, the strange smell of the body, I don't know if it's the spice used, or the baron's own fault, in short, it affects the meeting between the two, which makes Zhong Tu a little unbearable.

Therefore, after a simple greeting, Zhong Tu pointed out his intention straight to the point - he wanted to ask Baron Ferrari to help him buy some supplies needed for the territory!

Such as grain, vegetables, daily necessities, etc.

For this reason, the price of the clock is very high, and there is obvious room for operation, so the baron agreed without too much hesitation, and readily agreed to help with the purchase.

In this way, Zhong Tu can be regarded as solving a miscellaneous matter, and he can concentrate on the governance of the small town of Blackstone Mountain.

……

Two days later, in a carriage provided by the Ferrari Baron, and led by the guards provided by the Ferrari Baron, Zhong Tu arrived at his own territory, the town named after the strange mountain next to it, which was suddenly light, black, and full of rubble.

The townspeople came out of the house, staring at the carriage and the guards with dead eyes, and watched them enter the town, and march to the big house in the middle of the town, which had been the mayor's office and residence.

"Haven't those noble lords outside given up yet? We brought over another guy who wasn't afraid of death, and it seems that we've been so quiet lately that some people have forgotten that we exist. Inside the town of Black Stone Mountain, a strong man stared at the guards and Zhong Tu who got out of the carriage with a wicked face, and said coldly to a few companions around him.
