Chapter 960 Liszt's Conspiracy
Li Yifei was not sure of Leon's psychological changes, so he handed him the handover list with a smile.
After taking a look at the list, Leon felt that he had forgiven this guy too early.
But after thinking about it, he became much more calm, and he bared his teeth and complained: "How kind the Duke is to you!"
When Li Yifei heard this, he couldn't help but grinned.
He has had too many gifts, a magnificent space estate, a huge interstellar cruise ship, and even stunning beauty in the world, but he has never felt satisfied at this moment.
"Captain Lyon, I don't know much about the empire, please give me some advice."
Leon did not refuse to coach Li Yifei. Although he was a little jealous of the opponent's rapid rise, he knew that Li Yifei's potential strength was not comparable to his own.
Perhaps Li Yifei can rise quickly in the future, and even have a title and power greater than his own.
So offending the other party at this time is the stupidest behavior.
A truly smart person must make friends in advance.
"The Duke has given you many things, basically all of which you can use.
But the most important things are these three: a hundred households of devout believers, five swordsmiths, and this mecha. "
Li Yifei was a little surprised. This was somewhat different from his opinion. He thought which weapons shop was the most important.
Moreover, a knight beginner's mecha will not be used by myself in a short period of time, and it will have to be replaced sooner or later in the long run. What is so precious about it?
For ordinary knights, buying a customized mecha of their own would definitely cost them a fortune.
But to Li Yifei, it shouldn't be so precious.
"Captain Lyon, please elaborate."
"Let's talk about the one hundred households of devout believers first. Did you see that they are from Utopia? They are all slave believers... You don't need to know about the others for the time being, as long as you know that the believers who come out of this can provide you with faith. Just resources.”
"Resources of faith?" Li Yifei was a little confused. Can this thing be used quantitatively?
"I don't know what kind of technology this is, maybe it's a gift from the Lord! Anyway, the empire has a way for you to use your faith to enhance the capabilities of some special items."
Li Yifei reacted quickly and said, "Mecha? The mecha given by the Duke can absorb the power of faith?"
"Yes, it is said that this kind of god-given mecha can be improved with the power of faith. Of course...the big nobles may know the specific situation better. I only know some of the most superficial things." Leon said helplessly.
No matter what the system is, information blockade is a normal phenomenon. With the help of information gap, those rulers can harvest leeks efficiently.
Li Yifei didn't feel sorry. It would be good to get some news from Lyon. This was because he had obtained the title, otherwise Lyon would never tell him these things.
It's understandable even for the other party to hold back.
"As for the swordsmith, I looked at the records on the list and it seems that he was also a slave and was a specially trained private servant.
The empire stipulates that all believers who were born as slaves can be exempted from the identity shackles once when they are promoted to knights, and obtain the status of free citizens or noble subjects.
Of course... there must be various operations in private, you should be able to understand? "Leon stopped. He strongly disagreed with some of the nobles' immoral actions, but he was unable to change them.
As long as there are rules, there will be people who take advantage of them. This is inevitable.
Of course, the empire is very strict in this regard. If you are caught, you will definitely be severely punished, but there must be loopholes in the execution.
Of course Li Yifei understands. If you don't take advantage of the loopholes in the rules to gain benefits, can you still be called a powerful class?
Without Leon needing to elaborate, he could think of some simple ways.
For example, let's say you become a noble subject and then sign a long-term contract for hundreds of years.
For example, let's set up a trap to make you commit a crime and then make you a slave.
Various sexy operations popped out of his mind one after another. As long as he studied the rules of the empire, there would always be a few that could be implemented.
Seeing that his face was clear, Leon did not elaborate on the dirty details, and continued: "These swordsmiths were given by the Duke, and there should be no problem with their origins, so don't worry.
The point here is that these swordsmiths are not the old antiques you think of with hammers.
You see...this is the real extraordinary weapon. "
Leon drew out his sword, and a layer of crystal light continued to flow on the sword. It was the solidification of extraordinary power, expressed in a special form, and represented powerful power.
Combined with the mecha itself, it can unleash powerful destructive power.
This is much more powerful than standard weapons.
Not only mid-level and high-level knights like Lyon, but also low-level knights are willing to change to a customized weapon.
"Of course, your five swordsmiths should be beginners, but if you use them well, they will be of great value."
Leon himself doesn't have a supernatural property. It's not that he doesn't want to have one, but he doesn't have the right opportunities.
The Duke gave a lot of rewards, but he had a large family to support and to update his weapons.
After becoming a noble, he raised several private knights, which were all expenses.
Moreover, these rewards have only begun to appear recently.
As he said before, when something new appears, a wave of leeks will be harvested. Leeks like him are not long enough to be harvested.
Li Yifei knew the value of the reward and had already made plans in his mind.
This title is his own, according to the laws of the Dark Empire.
But how can reality be so ideal?
How can a title obtained with the power of a family belong to him unless he does not associate with the family in the future?
He has already thought of the result. The title is his, but the territory and the benefits brought by the title belong to the family.
The only thing that can be bargained is the things awarded by the Duke.
If it were before, he felt that there was nothing wrong with this distribution model, and it has always been like this.
But now, knowing that he was greedy, he also felt a little dissatisfied.
Perhaps, only when he has the strength to match the title can he truly be called the Baron.
He is not sure whether this is the conspiracy of Duke Lister, but he admits that he is tempted.
This is the human heart. The system can change, the country can change, but only the human heart cannot change.
The three dark factions of the Blue Star Federation want to obtain extraordinary power from Lister, so they must be prepared to pay the price.
Li Yifei thought of this and shook his head with a wry smile. Sure enough... the system of the Dark Empire is more cruel and naked.
But he does not regret it. If you get it, you have to pay. This is an irrefutable truth.
The cruel reality cannot defeat him, but will only give him more motivation to climb up.
