In the midst of this kind of cunning struggle, Hobart certainly had no intention of leaving a legacy behind.

Moreover, as a member of the noble family, you should be prepared to meet this fate, just as every extraordinary person is equivalent to joining a life-and-death competition by default.

In addition, generally speaking, the women of the nobility basically belong to the category of booty, which is why the Grove has such a question.

Although Hobart had previously said that he would take over all the women of the Teutonic Viscount, it was to plunge the Teutonic into deeper pain.

"Let those who want to go home." Hobert said: "If you don't want to go home, send it to the lord's mansion on the other side and let the lady deal with it." ”

Hobart couldn't help but think back to the image that came to his mind when he was promoted, and he suddenly realized that it was the potion that corrupted his consciousness, and that he might be degraded in the future, when he let others fall, he would also fall.

In order to avoid such a thing from happening, Hobert believes that he must stick to the bottom line and not let others fall and follow him.

This is actually a process of fighting potions, after all, potions not only give the extraordinary abilities, but also affect the temperament and will of the extraordinary.

Hobert suddenly realized that if it had been before, he would have asked about the killing of Teuton's sons, or felt a disturbance in his conscience.

But now, Hobart found himself feeling nothing.

That's not right, it's a few lives after all, and it's okay to order them to be killed for your own purposes, but you must know what you're doing.

Otherwise, what is the difference between him and a tyrant who treats life like a mustard?

Thinking of this, Hobart frowned, thinking carefully about the rulers of this world, they were no different from the tyrants in Hobert's impression.

Hobert didn't want to be like that himself, and he made up his mind to strengthen the training of his emotions in the future, neither too flamboyant nor too indifferent.

To put it bluntly, you must maintain enough humanity to fight against the erosion of potions.

It's just that now is not the time to ponder this, and Hobert came to the main hall of the Teutonic Viscount's mansion and assigned it to the town government.

Hobert said to Grove, the hero of this time, "You have two choices, the first is to be the first mayor of Teutonic Town, but you will also obey the mayor's arrangement in business.

"This position is relatively easy and suitable for retirement.

"The second option is to go back and rest for a week or two and help me set up an intelligence agency, which is directly under the lord's mansion, which means that it only obeys my orders."

Grove thought for a moment, "I don't think I'm too old, and I want to work harder when I finally meet a wise leader like you." ”

Hobert smiled: "Okay, when the handover with Conrad is completed, we will go home and rest."

"At present, your eldest son and second son are both fighting bandits, and the eldest son of Ling is already an extraordinary person, and he has chosen to become a 'warrior'! You can't meet until they come back.

"As for Dennis, he's in Beckland at the moment, and I'll take him back in a few days."

Grove sighed in his heart: I didn't expect that I was in my fifties, and my family and I would still encounter such an opportunity!

He had long heard that after Hobert had seized the knight's fiefdom, he had reused Albert and Colwin, and now Grove had finally understood that the lord in front of him was based on ability and loyalty to him, regardless of origin.

Even when the lord first came to the territory, the two knights who were obviously opposed to him, after sincere loyalty, the lord still accepted them.

Hobert sat here, and after taking over all the property of the Teutonic Viscount, he returned to the Lord's Mansion opposite, and had a few glasses of wine for dinner, and celebrated well.

After some intimacy, Hobert realized that although he had a certain divinity and became indifferent in some ways, his feelings and affection for Foirth remained the same.

This made Hobert realize that as long as he had time in the future, he should spend more time with Foirth and keep his emotions in a lively state.

As usual, the two men hugged each other and chatted at bedtime, and Foirth told Hobert: "The 'master trickster' potion has finally been thoroughly digested, and I have written to my teacher to tell him the good news, and can obtain from him another remarkable material."

"If all goes well, I'm going to adjust my form and get promoted next Monday or Tuesday."

Hobert smiled, "Our lord's wife is also an extraordinary person in the 'middle sequence'. ”

Then, the two of them talked about the "Justice League" party, and as they chatted, Forth fell asleep in Hobert's arms.

But Hobert didn't feel sleepy at all, and another reaction after becoming a demigod was: he ate very little and slept very little.

Theoretically, eating only one meal a day and resting for only three hours is enough.

Even if you fall asleep with meditation, you will wake up after three hours.

Hobert reckoned that the demigods of the "Sleepless" route should only sleep half an hour a day, otherwise they would not be able to work 22 hours a day, and they should have time to deal with their own problems outside of work.

Since he couldn't sleep, Hobert began to think about some plans for the next day, and suddenly there were more hours in the day, which seemed to be quite good.

……

Friday morning, Bakerland, 62 Queen's Road.

The carriage of the Earl of Wolf and Count Vincent's family entered the Earl's Court in Hobert half an hour before the party.

The carriage stopped, and came down Corati, the youngest daughter of Count Wolff, and Karl, the youngest son of Count Vincent.

They are members of Audrey and Gleilynt developments, respectively.

At that time, Hobart also planned to use these members to open up the relationship between the nobles of Rune, who knew that if he was not careful, Hobert had become a nobleman.

Hugh and Jessica then arrived in a cab, and finally Viscount Glerint and Audrey's carriage arrived.

After half a year, the gathering of the "Justice League" resumed.

The meeting took place in the study, but the Earl's study did not have many bookshelves, and it looked a little empty.

In the middle of the empty study was a long table and eight chairs, around which the members of the party sat chatting and laughing.

At ten o'clock, Hobart announced, "Let's get started!" ”

Everyone was seated in the same order, with Hobart at the top and Jessica behind her.

Furth and Hugh sat on the left, Audrey and Glerint on the right, Corlatty behind Audrey, and Karl behind Viscount Gleilint.

Audrey looked at Folth on the other side, and Hobert at the top, and the eye contact between the two showed their sweetness and affection, which made Audrey feel a little uncomfortable.

But she is very good at adjusting her mental state and does not let people see her discomfort.

As one of the initiators, Viscount Glerint took the lead and said, "I have asked Miss Hugh for my needs before, and I need the potion recipe and main material for the 'Apothecary' pathway sequence 8. ”

Hobert said unhurriedly: "In Fenerport, I have a good cooperation with the Mother Earth God Church, and I can help you get the potion recipe for the 'Beast Tamer', and as for the main material of the potion, I have it in my hand." ”

Gleilynt knew that his question was not difficult for Hobert, and he smiled and asked, "How much does it cost?" ”

Hobert said, "I don't need gold pounds, I need you to do me a favor." ”

Viscount Glerin made a gesture of please.

"I'm going to make some investments in Beckland and take over the governance of the territory as soon as possible." "But there is a shortage of reliable subordinates.

"It reminds me of the children of the aristocracy who are well-educated and have a good vision.

"Well, I mean the children of the nobility who have no right of inheritance and are not valued by the family.

"I've heard that after they graduate from college or get married, they have to find a way to find their own way?"

Gleilint and Carl nodded at the same time, and Gleilint said, "That's what happened. ”

There are too many such noble children, after all, the high-quality resources of the nobles are also limited, and they are generally more able to give birth, of course, the limited high-quality resources should be used on those noble children who seem to have potential.

And the reason why Carl also nodded along was that if he didn't become an extraordinary person and be valued by the family, he would have to fend for himself in the future.

Of course, it is not difficult for them to work in a government department, or to enter a company as a department head, but in that case, with their income and network resources, they will gradually distance themselves from the aristocratic family they were in before.

Now that he is valued by the family, the family will help him arrange a job as a government leader, or a senior executive of a large company in which the family has investment, and if he works harder, he will also have a good life.

"Help me gather such a group." "I'll do a simple interview with them, train them, and they'll have a great chance of being the core management of my career in Beckland," Hobart said. ”

Becoming an earl's henchman is already a good choice for a noble son who is not valued by the family.

For Hobert, this group generally feels that they have been treated unfairly, and there are general complaints about the current social system, and this group of educated and knowledgeable aristocratic children is a very easy to transform high-end talents.

This was an idea that Hobert had only had last night, and he was referring to the "scholar" class of the Warring States period, a group that was insignificant in the Spring and Autumn Period, but stirred up the world during the Warring States Period.

Viscount Glerint said, "It's not too difficult, do I need to do anything else?" ”

For him it was a meal, a viscount treated, and the children of the nobility would surely flock to it.

"I'll talk about it when I need your help." Hobert Road.

Now for him, the gold pound is no longer the greatest need, and the resources in the hands of Viscount Gleilint are worth more than the gold pound.

Another promoter, Hugh, looked at Hobart and said, "I need the extraordinary characteristics of an 'interrogator.'" ”

The potion recipe she had gotten from the masked man at MI9.

Hobert thought for a moment and said, "As I said before, 1200 pounds." ”

Karl, who was sitting behind Viscount Gleilint, swallowed, he had heard some time ago that an extraordinary characteristic of an "interrogator" appeared at a gathering of extraordinary people, and it was quickly bought, and the final price was as high as 2,800 pounds!

"Or you can pay for it by doing it as well." Hobert said again.

Hugh was stunned: "What's the busy?" ”

"After a while, I will recruit a group of workers from the homeless or poor people in the East Side, and help me identify their character when the time comes." Hobert Road.

"It's too simple, I'd better pay in gold pounds." Hugh didn't want to be cared for like this: "When you need help with screening, just call me and I'll do a favor." ”

"You may have misunderstood me." Hobart smiled: "I have to recruit a lot of people, and the workload may be very large, well, I can also assign you an assistant when the time comes." ”

Hugh asked, "How big?" ”

"Tens of thousands!" Hobart replied.

The other members thought they had misheard, and Audrey simply asked, "Hobert, what industry are you going to invest in?" How many workers are needed? ”

Hobert smiled mysteriously: "Keep it secret for the time being." ”

This made Audrey more and more curious.

Hobert looked at Hugh again: "Of course, the overall recruitment will be carried out in batches, let's set a value, if the number of recruits reaches 10,000, it will replace the value of extraordinary characteristics."

"I'll pay you more for more than 10,000, and if it's less than 10,000, you'll complete the task."

For an "interrogator" to easily get the homeless to tell the truth, such a screening is not difficult, but as Hobart said, the work is huge.

Hugh has an idea of 10,000 people, and even if she has an assistant, she will have to work continuously for more than a month to complete the screening work.

She nodded, "Okay, I'll pay you the way I do the task." ”

Hugh as a Sequence 8, can easily earn around £200 a month by doing bounty quests, and sometimes if you are lucky enough to encounter a good quest, such as the quest you received from Hobart before, it is not a problem to earn four or five hundred pounds a month.

Once you become Sequence 7, you will be able to take on higher-value tasks.

Of course, an "interrogator" will certainly not earn 1,200 pounds in more than a month, but it is almost worth the price for a "interrogator" to work intensively for more than a month.

The official Extraordinaire of the same level certainly does not earn as much as the Bounty Hunter, but the Official Extraordinaire has many benefits that the organization provides.

To use Crane as an example, such as Captain Dunn's business guidance and some protection, such as the occult knowledge that Old Neil taught him, such as the reimbursement of some of his personal expenses, such as the main material of potions, and so on.

Security alone is not something that can be compensated for by much money.

After receiving Hugh's reply, Hobert nodded, "After the party, I'll give you the extraordinary traits." ”

Hugh added, "I wish I could buy that revolver that can be enchanted." ”

Originally, she had finally saved enough money to buy a pistol and an extraordinary trait, but the money for the extraordinary trait was not spent, which made her very rich at the moment.

"No problem." Hobart said: "It's still the price originally agreed, 1,300 pounds!" ”

"Deal!"

Carl and the others still don't quite understand what this deal means, but Audrey realizes that Hugh and Hobart have just completed a deal about magical items!

She wanted to know the specific abilities of the pistol, but she didn't bother to ask because neither of them had explained it, but Hobart had apparently given some concessions, and at other parties, even at tarot meetings, a revolver with enchanted abilities could not be sold for that price.

Forthth is about to be promoted to Sequence 7, and there is no need for it at this time.

Audrey needs the fruit of psychedelic wind chimes, but she knows that the chances of buying this main material in the "Justice League" are slim, and it is easy to expose herself as Miss Justice.

After several promoters ran out of trading demand, the other members began to stir up.

Karl was the first to raise his hand and said, "Lord Earl, I have fully mastered the ability of the 'Arbiter', and I would love to obtain the extraordinary materials of the 'Sheriff'. ”

Since he became an extraordinary, Count Vincent also began to pay attention to the cultivation of this young son, so he gave him the potion recipe of "Sheriff" in advance, but he never bought the relevant extraordinary materials or extraordinary properties.

Hobert nodded: "Prepare 600 pounds, and after the party, I will bring you the extraordinary characteristics."

"Also, at the Justice League meeting, just call me Hobert."

"Yes, Earl...... I mean Mr. Hobert. Carl nodded excitedly: "I have already brought the money!" ”

I didn't expect the problem that had plagued me for several months to be solved so easily.

The dignified aristocratic lady Corati also said: "Mr. Hobert, I need the 'apprentice's next potion recipe and extraordinary materials. ”

Hobert smiled, "Like last time, I have extraordinary properties here, and Miss Furth has potion recipes. ”

The deal was sold for £1,200, with Hobart and Foerth each £600.

Finally, Jessica said, "I need the potion recipe and extraordinary properties of the 'bribe-taker'. ”

"I've got it ready for you, too." Hobert smiled: "Formula 1,000 pounds, extraordinary properties 1,200 pounds!" ”

"No problem." Jessica said immediately.

"You can also pay for it by doing tasks." Hobart said: "I may have to train a group of subordinates of the 'lawyer' path in the future, you guide them and let them digest the potion as soon as possible."

"Digest the 'lawyer's potion for a debt of 50 pounds, digest the potion of a 'barbarian' for a debt of 100 pounds, digest the potion of a 'bribe-taker' for a debt of 200 pounds."

Jessica smiled, "I haven't even digested the 'bribe-taker' potion yet. ”

Hobert leaned back in his chair: "You're always going to digest, aren't you?" ”

Jessica pondered for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'm willing to pay you for the task." ”

For her, it's just a matter of giving some guidance, encountering a suitable case, transferring it to the extraordinary person for handling, and giving some guidance.

At the end of the deal, everyone realized that Hobert, who was sitting at the top, was like a supplier, and seemed to be able to meet the needs of all members.

Corlatty thought to himself: I didn't feel so surprised just now, probably because at the previous party, Count Hobert gave us the feeling of omnipotence.

Audrey notices that Hobart prefers to be paid in the form of a task that asks everyone to do the task: this shows that Hobert is in good financial condition and that he needs a helper more than a gold pound.

Jessica peddled two or two more extraordinary weapons, and Viscount Glerint sold a few flasks of potions, and the free trade ended.

"We're in the exchange of intelligence," Hobert said. ”

Then he asked, "Does anyone know the details of Longtail Island?" ”

Carl was the first to say, "I don't know, but I can help you get the relevant information, and I can send it to you tomorrow night." ”

His second brother works in the Land Bureau, and it is not difficult to get the relevant materials about Changwei Island, and he plans to hire a few more people to complete the transcription of the detailed materials this afternoon and tomorrow.

Hobert nodded, "Do you need any pay?" ”

"No, you don't!" Carl smiled, "It's the best reward to be able to get such an affordable extraordinary trait at the 'Justice League' gathering. ”

Hobert glanced at Carl, who was a little reckless half a year ago, but now he is much more stable, nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Glerint sighed: "O fiefdom, this is a desirable place. ”

Karl said, "Mr. Hobert, can you tell us about your adventures in Fenerport?" I heard that there was a very intense and extraordinary battle that day? ”

"Yes." Hobart smiled: "But because my level is too low, I didn't participate in the battle on the main battlefield. ”

Firth smiled: "You have to be able to participate in the battle at the angel level.

Audrey said to herself: Who said you weren't involved? I'm sure the power of the Creator must have come from what you prayed for!

"My mission was to take control of a seal, but it failed." Hobert was only going to talk about this level: "Because the enemy is too strong!" ”

Curious, Carl asked, "How powerful?" ”

"Everyone should have the concept of a demigod, right?" After seeing everyone nodding, Hobert said, "There are at least five demigods and twenty or thirty sequence 5 who are responsible for guarding the seals. ”

Everyone gasped, and Carl was simply surprised: "So many people! ”

Hobert laughs, "I was lucky enough to get out of there." ”

Glerint and Carl had begun to fantasize about the fierce battle, and only the attentive Corati noticed that since Mr. Hobert's mission had failed, why had he been rewarded so richly?

It's just that she saw that no one seemed to notice this, and Count Herbert didn't want to elaborate on it, so she didn't ask.

After some more talk about Fenerport's customs and anecdotes, the meeting ended.

Hobert told everyone to wait in the study, and he went to take the extraordinary properties out of the "State of Disorder", and wrote down the potion recipe for "The Bribe-taker" in front of his bedroom desk.

Returning to the study again, Hobert gave Corati the extraordinary properties of the "Master of Tricks" and Carl the extraordinary properties of the "Sheriff".

The extraordinary properties of the "bribe-taker" and the recipe for the potion were given to Jessica.

In the end, Hugh was given the extraordinary characteristics of the "interrogator" and the revolver, after which Hobert sent everyone away one after another, and of course Firth stayed in the Earl's Court, after all, she was now the countess.

Hugh also stayed, and she concocted the potion with the tools provided by Hobert, because her "sheriff's" potion was well digested, so there was no risk in the promotion process.

After Hugh had gathered up his spirits, the three of them had lunch together, Dophes took Forthth and Hugh to visit the Earl's Court, and Hobart used his "travel" to the office of Upton in Connat City.

The members of the Balk family, who were originally scheduled to study for about a month, extended it for a while, and finally ended today.

Upton had already calculated that even if the study time was extended by a month, it would only cost more than 1,600 pounds.

Before Hobert paid 2,000 pounds in advance for tuition, he simply waved his hand and gave each student 12 pounds in cash for them to buy souvenirs, and he didn't ask Upton to return the 2,000 tuition.
