In the other world, women only slow me down.

But what Hui didn't expect was that the elegant Lin Qi didn't tolerate her at all and directly retorted:

"If you don't do it, someone else will."

Lynch's face was gloomy, and his talent of [Ferocious] was activated at this moment.

"You're taking my salary and doing nothing every day. What are you doing here? Do I give you face? I'll say it again. If you want to work, do it. If you don't, get out. Do you understand?"

Even though he knew that Lynch's fighting ability was not strong.

But at this moment, Hui and Yashu felt a tremendous pressure from Lin Qi for no reason.

It even made the two of them feel a certain threat.

"……you?!"

Hui wanted to say something, but Yashu stopped her.

"OK OK."

Yashu advised Hui:

"What the boss said is not wrong. We really shouldn't just take the money and not do the work. We've been resting for so long, so why not take it as a break to stretch our muscles?"

After hearing this, Hui could only give up in disappointment.

It was true that she was an S-rank adventurer, but it was not so easy to attack a genuine noble.

Attacking the nobles is equivalent to declaring war on the country.

This is something Hui Wanwan cannot afford.

"Just wait for me. We'll leave after we finish this! Don't beg us to stay then!"

Hui slammed the door and left angrily. Yashu spread her hands to Lin Qi and followed him.

[Host, if you do this, your love will fly away, meow! ]

The system never expected that Lynch would actually dare to get angry at these two special targets.

According to the experience passed down by the system's predecessors, most hosts will choose to compromise themselves a little for the sake of rewards.

But looking at Lin Qi, who was not willing to bow down for the sake of love at this moment, the system inexplicably felt that he was a little handsome.

"It's mine, it's mine after all."

Lynch declined to comment.

Now that you know the correct way to conquer these two people, there will be plenty of opportunities to gain love points from them in the future.

There's no need to rush.

"By the way, for these special targets, don't you have a tracking function?"

Lynch asked the system.

【some! 】

[Unlocked special targets can be viewed in real time through the system panel. ]

"...Then why didn't you tell me?"

Seeing this, Lynch couldn't help but frown.

Logically speaking, shouldn't these basic functions be explained clearly in the beginner tutorial?

While Lynch was asking the question, the system panel also changed.

[This feature is being installed... Please wait...]

Lin Qi was stunned, and then he was speechless again.

Is this function of feelings newly created?

This system is really unreliable.

But Lynch thought the other way around, maybe he could make some requests to the system later and ask it to write some useful functions.

Who said that only the system can issue tasks to the host?

It is completely possible for the host to PUA the system in turn!

Lynch thought so.

Soon, the system panel prompted again.

【The live view function has been installed.】

Lynch tried to click the [Real-time View] button, and immediately three more options appeared below.

【Ruri River】

【benefit】

【Ya Shu】

Lynch clicked on the option marked [Ruri River] without hesitation.

A line of subtitles suddenly appeared on the system panel.

[Rurikawa is washing and cleaning under the care of the head maid Robert, please do not worry.]

Lynch nodded with satisfaction.

Robert is indeed trustworthy.

With her taking care of Yin Lingmeng, Rurikawa will definitely be properly arranged.

After finishing today's work, we can start preparing to train Rurikawa.

Lynch's promise to Rurikawa was not just empty talk.

As long as he can ensure the loyalty of Rurikawa's employees, Lynch naturally hopes that Rurikawa's abilities will be as strong as possible.

This may help you relieve a lot of pressure in the future.

The reason why Lynch chose Rurikawa was not only because of her pleasing appearance, but more importantly because of her former status as a young lady.

In Lynch's eyes, the maids in the manor who came from poor backgrounds were just like ordinary college graduates.

Clear and stupid.

It will undoubtedly take a lot of time and effort to train them into qualified employees.

From Lynch's perspective, Rurikawa, who was once a noble, is undoubtedly an old employee with many years of work experience. She has a very good foundation and can easily take over the work assigned to her by Lynch with just a little guidance.

As long as Rurikawa is successfully trained, the affairs within the territory of Lin Qiling*Meng Ve⑴Qi Yaoba Liu⑦Liu Yi can be handed over to Rurikawa to handle.

Lynch can focus his energy on improving his own strength and building his own legion.

"Well... judging by the current situation, the armed forces in my territory are too weak. Not to mention facing the Black Dog Mercenaries, we can't even defeat those fragile princess knights. I must find a way to recruit more people."

Lynch pondered in his mind.

In this world, if you want to expand your manpower, there are generally two options.

The first step is to go to various guilds to post recruitments and attract experts in the guilds to apply.

Hui and Yashu came to Lynch's territory in this way.

The people found in this way have extremely high limits. Sometimes you might find a strong man who can fight against a hundred people at once, and sometimes you might find him to be a complete waste who can't do anything.

At the same time, the relationship between these recruits and the lords was purely one of employment, and there was almost no loyalty to speak of.

It is indeed very suitable to be used as a thug for a short period of time.

However, if you want to build your own team or legion over a long period of time, recruiting in this way seems unrealistic.

Therefore, Lynch focused his focus on the second path.

Buy slaves.

The slave trade is not prohibited in this world. In fact, the larger the kingdom, the larger the scale of the slave trade, and the identities of the slaves are also different.

There were soldiers who had been defeated in battle, merchants who had gone bankrupt, elves captured by slave traders, and ordinary people who had been forced to sell their bodies...

Sometimes you can even see princesses from small countries in the slave market.

Rurikawa had almost faced such a desperate situation before.

Behind every large slave market, there is often a powerful magician.

These magicians would provide magic contracts to the slave market. Once customers selected their favorite slaves from the slave market, they could guarantee the loyalty of these slaves by signing a magic contract.

Chapter 8: Croseo Arena

"As for the slave trade... I remember it was managed by the Third Princess, right? She even opened a slave fighting arena for people to watch. They made a lot of money every year just from the ticket sales."

Lynch held his chin with one hand and thought so.

Since you have decided to buy slaves, you must first understand the situation of the local slave market.

As a nobleman now, Lynch is a member of the privileged class.

Then of course you have to exercise your privileges.

"Perhaps... I can directly contact Her Royal Highness the Third Princess to inquire about the situation. Maybe I can even get a discount."

With this thought in mind, Lynch turned the carriage around and galloped towards the slave arena.

If nothing unexpected happens.

Her Royal Highness the Third Princess should be there.

-----------------

Croseo Colosseum.

"Come on, you wimp! Come on, come on!"

"Kill him! Kill him! I've put all my wealth on you!"

"Real food!"

"..."

Before Lynch arrived at the arena, he had already heard waves of cheers from inside.

Warriors wearing armor so thin that it was almost invisible were fighting in a huge circular arena. Every collision of swords and every spurt of blood made the atmosphere here even more heated.

In this world where entertainment is scarce, watching such exciting duels is one of people's favorite ways to entertain themselves.

There are also casinos of various sizes around the arena.

There are crowds betting on every game.

The bigger the name and the more powerful the gladiator, the more attention and love they will receive from the audience.

It was not uncommon for some nobles and merchants to spend a fortune on a duel.

"It's really... a bit barbaric."

Before coming to the Colosseum, Lynch had no interest in such barbaric gladiatorial performances, and therefore had never invested in these industries.

But after seeing the popularity of the scene with my own eyes.

Lynch couldn't help but feel a little moved.

This arena is simply a treasure trove.

"Since someone has to make money from this, why can't that person be me?"

Lynch walked among the excited crowd and couldn't help but think so.

Just now.

A burst of enthusiastic shouts came from the entrance of the arena.

"Ladies and gentlemen! The highlight of today is about to begin!"

"The protagonist of today's duel is our famous busty fairy swordsman - Dilanda of the Wind!"

"Tickets are limited, first come first served!"

"..."

I saw a young man wearing a funny and conspicuous hat, a few freckles on his face, and a gray-yellow work suit for the arena waving the admission ticket in his hand and shouting vigorously.
