Mysterious Tribulation

Chapter 500 Going Away

Green Forest City.

In the mansion of Viscount Offdin.

He is of medium build, with a decent smile, and a beautiful mustache on his chin. He is also Liliat's sufferer, and Lord Lake, who once stole a counterfeit ring from her, is walking back and forth anxiously: "What is the kingdom? Sell us all to Is the Countess gone?"

"Personnel rights, taxation, military... have all been given to the other party, why not also give the legislative power to the other party and let the other party directly serve as the speaker of the House of Lords?"

The local nobles were very confused about the sudden addition of an earl, especially after knowing the other party's outrageous privileges.

Lord Lake was not the first to complain to Viscount Offdin.

In Green Forest City, Viscount Ofdin is the real real authority.

Yes, although in the eyes of many middle class and businessmen, Lord Lake is a great figure, but in the circle of nobles, the Lord is just an entry.

Viscount Aufdin had an old face, green eyes, and wrinkled forehead. He replied calmly: "Actually... the Duke of Algay did invite him to be the speaker, but the countess didn't accept it..."

"Holy Spirit..." Lord Lake moaned, "Is this still the Invensys I know?"

He looked at Viscount Ofdin with anticipation in his eyes: "Your Excellency, as a powerful figure in Green Forest City, you must convey our situation to the parliament and His Majesty the King..."

Viscount Ofdin showed a bitter smile: "Your Excellency, Lord Lake, you think too highly of me... Now that the real nobles are gathered in Pulmouth, I am just a little Viscount, what can I do?" ?”

"What's more...you should also know the secret news. Even the kingdom has chosen to compromise, what can we do? If you really don't want to, just buy the Senate as soon as possible and transfer the fief... But, we still need to find a willing A noble who exchanged land with you."

"How can I find it?" Lord Lake slumped on the chair.

After the lord left, Viscount Ofdin immediately showed a contemptuous expression on his face: "Stupid pig! I don't know how many people would not envy the opportunity to get involved with the Sotos family... how dare you think about it?" leave?"

For nobles, it doesn't matter who they are loyal to!

What's more, Sotos was originally the owner of this forest!

This is not the only thing that Offdin despises Lord Lake.

In his opinion, Lord Lake's ancestors were nouveau riche, without any noble inheritance.

Therefore, although I know some news from the hidden world, I can't understand the impact of the "Count's Return" on the entire world!

He stood up, went to the study, and moved a statue with the symbol of a green banyan tree.

As the statue rotated 180 degrees, a hidden door also emerged on the wall.

Viscount Ofdin followed this familiar path all the way down, and came to a basement.

On the alchemy table, you can see various mortars, balances, beakers, test tubes...

Everything from ancient pharmacist's tools to the latest models of cutting-edge chemical testing equipment can be found here.

On the shelf not far away, there is a large collection of spiritual herbs, as well as other densely packed experimental records and mystical books.

Viscount Ofdin came to the alchemy table familiarly and started today's potion experiment.

The lord's family may not have a stable mysterious inheritance, but at the level of viscount, there is no doubt that it already has.

And this Viscount Ofdin is even a very rare 'pharmacist'!

...

"To rule a territory is actually very simple, give the right things to the right people to do."

The roar of the steam train.

In the carriage, looking at the approaching northern border of the kingdom, Aaron imparted experience to the newly appointed Countess.

"Management is not such a simple matter, is it?" Liliat smiled wryly, feeling a little dazed again: "This is my hometown, I used to think that I was just a low-level bank employee all my life... I never thought that one day I would Come back as such!"

"Managing people is a very simple matter, because we have the power, and the cost of trial and error is very low... After you find a mistake, just kill and correct it."

Aaron replied nonchalantly.

A 'living dead' is enough to become the leader of a secret organization.

"Besides, we don't have to stick to the secular world. We can use mystic methods to consolidate our rule."

he continued.

"For example, those ghosts you released before?" Liliat asked.

"Yes, they are good scouts."

Aaron's eyes were slightly deep, as if he saw a dozen pictures at the same time.

The city councilors, high-ranking government employees, nobles, and big businessmen of Green Forest City... were overwhelmed by the news of the Countess's arrival, and met frequently.

Little did they know that all their plans were under Aaron's eyes.

"Um?"

At this moment, a slightly special picture attracted Aaron's attention.

"Viscount Ofdin...the real powerful figure in Lusen...it turns out to be a pharmacist."

He sighed.

"A pharmacist? That's really rare..." Liliat was not too surprised: "However, nobles generally have mystic inheritance, which is quite normal."

"But my spiritual intuition tells me that he has another identity." The corners of Aaron's lips curled up slightly: "He is an acquaintance you and I both know!"

"Um?"

Liliat immediately became interested, or in other words, noticed Aaron's words, and was delighted that he still retained a certain degree of humanity and memory: "Who is this Viscount's hidden identity?"

"Codename 'Jazz', the convener of the secret gathering in Green Forest City..."

Aaron smiled.

Liliat immediately thought of the secret meeting where she met Aaron, and then thought of more: "That 'sir' does have a deep background and connections, a bit like an official force, and at the same time he is a pharmacist... It turns out that it is the Austrian Viscount Fording."

In her opinion, this matter may become a political bargaining chip, but that's it, it doesn't deserve much attention.

Liliat continued to ask: "What are you going to do about the Sothoth Museum?"

"Let's let the past go... It's not necessary to transform the museum back into the castle. It's good to maintain the status quo."

Aaron's figure gradually faded: "You have done a good job..."

Liliat stared at this scene in a daze, until she was awakened by the shout of "Your Excellency the Earl" outside, and then wiped away her tears: "I'm fine, don't come in."

Although she became a "living dead", won the allegiance and full support of the "Green Banyan Council", and became the Earl of Green Forest, but Liliat felt that some things were getting farther and farther away from her...

The second is later
