The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 477 Facing Count Siwa
When everyone was still worrying about the life and death of Zhang Qiang and Kumbababoye, and rushed over immediately, it was in the center of the arena, where the two dueling parties were lying.

A man covered in blood stood up first.

A Lumwadia merchant first spotted it, and he called out: "Look, it's your lord. It's your lord, he's on his feet."

Standing up, Zhang Qiang touched the blood at the corner of his mouth, and looked around with his head down, his expression was a bit ferocious, and his eyes were menacing.

"Yes, Mr. Chief Minister, he has won." Many people shouted.

However, Earl Siwa was holding on to the armrest of the chair, and kept shouting in his heart: "Kumbaboye, you bastard, stand up, I asked you to challenge Zhang Qiang, not to pretend to be cowardly!" .”

But no matter how much he hoped, it was of no avail. No matter where Zhang Qiang stood, his accompanying general guards quickly bandaged him to stop the bleeding, and then let him swallow the intermediate healing medicine, seven or eight pills at once. , This reminded Zhang Qiang of the scene of taking medicine in the past. Unfortunately, those doctors now, including James, do not have time to make pills, and it is impossible to sell advanced healing medicines. Not every earl has it. It costs money to try every kind of elixir, and only good herbalists and doctors who have been promoted to senior doctors and take the route of refining medicine and making elixir can be made.

Earl Siwa didn't have it, but he did. With the motive of Earl Siwa wanting to annex Zhang Qiang's territory and seek refuge with the Kujit people, it is impossible for him to help Zhang Qiang.

So Zhang Qiang had no choice but to swallow the best publicly available elixir and intermediate healing medicine that James could buy in Calradia.

It is impossible for him to recover completely. The main reason for his injury like this is that he lost too much blood. It is impossible to restore the blood volume at once, and he can only recover slowly. The more serious the injury, the less effective the healing medicine is. The effect will be manifested slowly, and the healing effect will be manifested when it reaches the healing range of the elixir.

The middle-level healing medicine is generally a elixir for treating the loss of 300 HP, but the healing effect can only reach 240, and the remaining 60 HP needs rest and time to recover slowly.

Of course, this time will be very fast. If there is a mid-level doctor who takes the surgical route, then the recovery effect can be improved. Through good surgery, such as disinfecting the wound, stitching needles, making the wound smaller, or suturing the wound well, then This allows the patient to heal faster.

Over there, Kumbababoye also woke up under the toss of his guards, and stood up unsteadily.

However, there was a considerable time difference between the two of them, and Kumbaboye stood up like he didn't know where he was going, and he couldn't walk straight even if Zhang Qiang asked him to come and fight.

Kumbabboye's guards quickly helped Kumbabboye out of the arena.

At this time, Zhang Qiang had already stood up straight, saluting frequently to the crowd in Fort Lunvadia who were cheering like a landslide and tsunami!
"You have gained the reputation of Fort Lunvadia, you have gained the reputation of the entire Calradia continent, your reputation in the civilian camp has reached [-], you have won the support of the people in the ruling area, and you have secured the chief minister position, you will be a prestigious nobleman and famous person in Earl Siwa's territory in the future, and your influence has already surpassed Earl Siwa."

Zhang Qiang was dumbfounded by a series of game ring reminders. He never expected that he would get so many benefits from a mere competitive duel. It seems that he will have to face up to competitive competitions in the future.

Now he understands why it is so difficult for him to walk on the continent of Calradia, relying on luck and a little foresight of single-player games, but Feng Qingyang quickly established an advantage and ascended to the position of nobleman , and repeatedly paralleled himself, it seems that not only because of the help of his father-in-law, but also because of the prestige of the civilian camp he established in the arena.

After paying tribute, Zhang Qiang rode his horse and rushed out of the arena amidst the cheers of the crowd.

The competitive duel ended with his complete victory.

He gained popularity with a huge civilian camp.

Back in the castle hall, Earl Siwa was already waiting in the castle hall where Zhang Qiang worked.

As soon as he came in, Earl Shiwa greeted him with a smile, "Viscount Zhang Qiang, I really didn't see it. You still have such a unique move, and you used it at the last moment. It's jaw-dropping. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to escape your tricks."

Zhang Qiang sat down with a smile, took the wine glass handed over by Dronton, drank a glass of low-quality malt wine in one gulp, and wiped off the wine stains on the beard around his mouth, "Earl Siwa, I'm plotting against you, this is My real ability is just that I choose the timing very accurately. You will never let me tell Kumbababoye in advance that I am going to use a unique move. You should be on guard. Didn't tell me in advance."

"Haha, yes, yes, your strength is improving so fast, I can't accept it." Count Siwa laughed.

"I can't make progress. If I have a few more rivals to challenge me, wouldn't I die in the arena? Fortunately, it's the arena, and Kumbababoye won't be able to shoot the vitals. If it was on the battlefield, I would have died a long time ago." Hang up, so to speak, I have to thank Earl Siwa for sitting in the town, keeping my rival in love tied up and not daring to really harm me."

"Hehe, where did you go? This is the arena. No one has dared to kill a noble viscount in the arena, especially if you are still my chief minister. If you really want to kill you, I won't let him go out. Fort Lunvadia." Earl Siva laughed.

Zhang Qiang leaned lazily in the chair. Now he has some resentment towards Earl Siwa. It was he who pushed the duel with all his strength. This was obviously to find his own displeasure. , or the capital of his territory was looking for trouble with him, the chief minister, which reminded him of Earl Siwa's scum lord again.

The loyalty of this kind of person, oh no, he is still his own lord, how can he be loyal to himself? It should be said that this person is not suitable to be a friend. Taxes, let him enjoy the wealth of the earl lord with peace of mind.

This can no longer be the case in the future. He raised his tax payable without suing himself, which is unforgivable.

"Lord Xiwa, let's talk about taxes. I don't know why you want to raise my taxes?" Zhang Qiang took the opportunity to ask.

"Well, you also know how coveted the wealth of your territory is. Although my castle territory is also developing, but relying on a few soldiers alone, what taxes can they bring you? Some military merchants, like The lice on your body can only suck blood, which will pay me more taxes, and your territory generates so much tax, you should be loyal to me as the lord, right?"

Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "Well, I will support the army for you, can you lower my tax revenue?" Zhang Qiang said.

"That's it!" Earl Siwa's heart tightened, what does this kid mean.

However, Earl Siwa quickly made up his mind. The old knight went to look for Kujit’s Feng Qingyang, and he would come with Kujit’s army soon. Why don’t you let this kid support the army for me first? It is he who pays, not me, but I have to ask for the tax. I have to squeeze out his wealth first, and when he finally finds out that the Kujit army is coming, he finds that his money has been raised for him. When he joined the army and wanted to get money to recruit more militiamen to resist the Kujit army, he found that there was not enough money, so he could only take his army back to the Kingdom of Swadia in desperation, and become his wandering viscount up.

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said to Zhang Qiang: "No, this tax has already been decided, you have to pay it, and I think you can't pay less, you have to pay more, are you not loyal to me?"

Zhang Qiang could only say: "Master Earl, my loyalty to you cannot be questioned, otherwise you wouldn't let me be the chief minister, would you?"

"Haha, that is, your ability and loyalty, I value it very much, so it's settled, the tax will be increased to a quarter, and you will pay for the military expenditure of the army. Tomorrow is the time for the military expenditure to be distributed again, so you will do it for me. Go post it, anyway, you are in charge of everything in the territory."

"This," Zhang Qiang didn't expect Earl Siwa to take advantage of the situation and increase his tax burden, and asked him to pay military expenses for him, and asked him to pay for his army. He just said a joke casually, He took it seriously.But he is his own lord, the earl lord, and he is still his chief minister, so he cannot publicly oppose him fiercely, otherwise, he will have to talk about loyalty again.

It's not good to have a reputation for betraying your lord.

Zhang Qiang could only accept it.

But he's not one to resist.

He rolled his eyes, and said to Earl Siwa who turned to go back to his lord's hall: "However, Your Excellency Earl Siwa, can you pay the money you owe me first.

The arena official said, before the battle ended, you made a big bet and bought me 100 million dinar gold coins, and you will lose in the duel.

According to the rules, before the opening, you bet 100 million, and you can pay me 400 million at most, which is 1:4 odds. Odds, that is to say, the 1:10 odds you enjoy, if I lose, you can get a compensation of 1000 million dinar gold coins from me, you will not cheat! "

Earl Siwa's face suddenly sank. He was in a trance just now and forgot about it. How much he hoped that the knight hadn't had time to place a bet. But at this moment, Zhang Qiang asked, so the arena has accepted the bet. In other words, he had to really pay Zhang Qiang 1000 million dinar gold coins.

How could I take out 1000 million gold coins? If I had 1000 million gold coins, what tax would I take from Zhang Qiang?
Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you won't even admit this. It's not that I'm not loyal. This is the rule of the Calradia continent. I'm willing to bet and admit defeat. No one can take advantage of the opportunity, even the king. No, as long as he loses the bet, he will have to pay the corresponding bets to his subjects. This may involve his reputation in the continent of Calradia. Just think about the Earl of Varision. When a person is hated by many people, he can't get along in that country. If I hadn't taken him in, he might have been killed, or got out of Calradia, the outer continent world, who knows what it is look?"

Earl Siwa's face was cloudy and cloudy, red and white for a while, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
