Richard has not experienced women, nor is he lacking women. With his current strength, identity and status, no matter in Norland or Farrow, he will have as much as he wants. Moreover, as his strength and power further improve, his chances of getting girls of this level like Luo Qi will also be more and more.

Duke Mensa could give Luo Qi as a bargaining chip to Duke Schumpeter because he felt that the benefit of annexing Schumpeter was far greater than Luo Qi himself. This is the simple and clear logic among the nobles. Richard thought that he might not be as good as Duke Schumpeter now, but in the near future, how could Duke Schumpeter be compared with him?

This is Richard's idea and a common understanding among the nobles. However, Luo Qi is indeed special. She successfully broke the understanding of many people, including Richard. Otherwise, Richard would have been prepared to humiliate and ravage her in Richard's original plan. In terms of attacking Mensa and Schumpeter, Richard had already made up his mind and used all means to do everything.

But under Richard's sharp gaze, Luo Qi was still standing quietly, without any intention of leaving.

Richard's face turned cold and he said lightly: "Are you really planning to have something happen to me? Then I won't refuse."

Luo Qi sighed lightly and said, "Richard, do you really want to let me go back?"

"Otherwise, what?" Richard asked back.

"But you have thought about what kind of consequences will happen if I go back now?" Luo Qi said softly.

"Your reputation is nothing?"

Luo Qi smiled bitterly and said, "How could it be so simple? After this bet, Duke Schumpeter was greatly humiliated. According to normal practice, he should terminate his engagement with me. Then I will return to Mensa, as a symbol of family shame, and from then on, I will become a plaything for someone or someone. My body may also become a bargaining chip and tool for exchanging certain things. But Duke Schumpeter would not do this! He has no way out anyway and is destined to be annexed by Mensa, so he will definitely continue the engagement, and may even ask to get married immediately, so as to get me completely. At that time, all my memories in the Schumpeter family were probably all kinds of insults and abuses. If you inquire, you should know that Duke Schumpeter had a hobby of torture and killing girls. So when I go back now, I will only have two endings, becoming a plaything for Mensa or a plaything for Schumpeter."

Richard admitted that what she said was likely to become a reality. Vinica was different from her, and her experience was largely a secret. Moreover, the current nominal controller of the Gordon series is Richard. Richard has no place to enjoy himself, and it is impossible for others in the clan to turn Vinica into a toy. However, there are many members of other nobles and wealthy families, and such things are endless.

Seeing that Richard didn't say anything, Luo Qi looked at Richard and sighed: "Why is it me?"

Richard spread his hands and smiled, "You happen to be on the scene." Then he said seriously: "Because you are the best choice, you can attack Mensa and Schumpeter at the same time, especially Schumpeter. When attacking opponents, it is best to destroy the biting dog first."

Luo Qi said: "Indeed...but I want to ask, can I choose the third ending?"

"The third ending? Tell me." Richard was a little surprised. She had brought more than one accident.

Luo Qi said without hesitation: "Let me stay."

Richard's expression remained unchanged and asked, "Stay? With what identity?"

Luo Qi's voice was calm and firm: "Any identity, maid, prisoner, escapee, or your lover, bedmate, can do it. But I only accept you. If you let others come to touch me, then I will commit suicide. Because this is no different from going back."

Richard finally showed a hint of helplessness and a little sarcastic expression, saying, "Don't you want to be a toy for Mensa and Schumpeter, but you want to be my toy? It seems that I've gotten back from a big trouble. Okay, tell me your true thoughts. If you want to stay, what's your ideal way?"

Luo Qi hesitated for a moment before saying seriously: "I am very smart, and I can also have some magic, and I have awakened my blood abilities. I hope to get a position through these things, not through my face and body."

Richard smiled and said, "You are very ambitious, but this idea is also very unrealistic. Change it!"

Luo Qi's face was a little pale, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Then add my face and body."

Richard finally nodded and said, "This is almost the same, I am qualified to get my protection. Okay, you go down first, I will ask the butler to arrange yours. You can stay in Fudao first. I will return to the Faro plane tomorrow. When I come back next time, I will think about how to arrange you."

Luo Qi said: "You can take me to Faro with you."

Richard looked her up and down and said lightly: "No need, I don't want to bring a burden, and plane teleportation is expensive. Everyone knows that we, Archmond, are poor."

After saying that, Richard pulled the bell rope to call people, and the old butler walked in. Richard told Luo Qi to find a place to live. After no one else asked for someone, he asked the old butler to take Luo Qi away.

The study finally became quiet, Richard sat at the table and began to plan his actions after returning to Faro.

First, he would like to sort out the harvest this time. In terms of income, the maple sweet amber is seven million, three sets of three million, plus ore and metal, which are exchanged for a total of 100 million weapons and equipment, and the fraction is handed over to the old housekeeper to maintain the operation of the floating island, territory and the cost of recruiting troops. Four hundred folded obsessive iron weapon embryos were exchanged for enchantment at the cost of hundreds. In one month, Richard will get a total of 300 knight-level weapons.

This time, Richard got equipment from Norland that was enough to arm the 1,000 most elite knights. At least for a period of time, he didn't have to worry about the equipment for the time being. Even if he had to even give the two hundred sets of knight equipment to Duke Canglang, Richard could still have eight hundred sets of equipment left. This was the production of the mother's nest for nearly two hundred days.

However, the process of calculating returns was very slow, and Luo Qi would appear in his heart from time to time, and there were some scenes that were made inadvertently but made people bleeding. The scenes with extremely strong impact could not be removed, making Richard's efficiency very low.

At the same time, in a quiet bar in Fushide, Raymond was sitting by the window, looking at the seven-stringed crescent moon slowly moving from the side of the sky, swallowing a bitter strong wine bite. The wine was as thick as fire, and it burned at the mouth, and a line of fire ignited from Raymond's throat to the stomach.

When Raymond poured himself a large glass of strong wine, a hand suddenly reached over and pressed his hand.

Raymond was not drinking alone. A man in a robe sitting opposite him. The brim of the hanging hat covered most of her face, and she could only judge that she was a woman by her figure. She said in a slightly hoarse voice: "You can't drink anymore unless you want to die within three years."

Raymond smiled miserably and said, "Isn't it more painful to be alive now than to die?"

The mysterious woman said slowly: "You could have intervened in this matter today."

"Intervention? How can I intervene? Even if I can stop Richard, can I send Luo Qi back to Mensa and let her fall back into Schumpeter's hell again?!" Raymond's eyes were red and he growled like a wild beast. Even though he was already drunk and could not speak clearly, Raymond still lowered his voice, so that the voice could only be heard by the mysterious woman opposite.

This is Raymond's sorrow. Even if he wants to drown his sorrow with alcohol, his body will never be able to bear it before getting drunk. So no matter when, Raymond's consciousness is always clear.

He broke away from the woman's hand a little rudely, then poured half a glass of strong wine into his throat, and let out a sip of alcohol, and then said, "I know her, just as she knows me. She is a very smart and thoughtful girl. I know that once she goes to the floating island of Archmond, she will definitely find a way to stay. No matter who she is with, it is better than returning to the old pervert of Schumpeter."

The mysterious woman looked at Raymond drinking another glass of wine and suddenly said, "I can help you."

"Help me? You're crazy." Raymond laughed immediately when he heard her words, but his laughter was desolate and sad. "Look at the fate of Kane Mensa! Our Emperor Majesty finally revealed one of his fangs. Is the expression unclear enough? In this duel bet, he does not allow anyone to interfere. It must be executed to the end to maintain the dignity of the royal family. Do you want to fight against the bloodthirsty His Majesty Philip?"

The mysterious woman was speechless.

Her face hidden under her hood looks very young, at most about the same age as Raymond. For the younger generation, no matter how amazing she is, His Majesty the Emperor is a giant that cannot be disobeyed.

After venting, Raymond looked a little calmer, sighed and said slowly: "Actually, I still don't have the strength to protect Luo Qi. If I could let the Joseph family support me with all their strength, I might be able to change Luo Qi's fate. But now I only have a few years of life left. No patriarch of a wealthy family will go all out against a wealthy family like Mensa for a young child who can only live for a few more years. I will not even have the value of making a deal with Mensa."

"Fate can be changed! It's still time to go to Archmond now." The mysterious woman said in a deep voice.

"It's too late." Raymond shook his head, then looked out the window, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Actually, this may be the opportunity she has always wanted to change her destiny. I can't help her achieve it, maybe... Richard can?"

When Raymond finished his last sentence, the wind blew by, and even the virtue of the world that was like spring in all seasons, it made people feel boundless and bleak.
