Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1124 Lawrence is Clever

After listening to Bill's description, Xia Duo was thoughtful. If there is no accident, this "Wild Poem" should be a spellcaster. Maybe this is why he can tease Zilan Tower without being held accountable. .

Spellcasters are somewhat tolerant of spellcasters, even if they are not arcane spellcasters.

Of course, it is also possible that Kiran Tower doesn't care at all. As a concentration camp for blood warlocks, would it care about such gossip?
Lord Rodney was also rumored to be a "ram in heat", but he didn't see any action.

Maybe they just take it as a compliment!

If it were Xia Duo, if some of his legendary adventures were passed on, even if they were fabricated, he would just smile knowingly and not pursue anything.

Of course, he wouldn't be happy if someone passed on his gossip, even if he was described as extremely brave, because he was still different from Kieran Tower.

Then, Xia Duo asked Bill some more questions, and waved him away until he couldn't ask any new information.

……

The reception room on the first floor of the lord's villa.

"My lord, those bards are here."

Xia Duo was thinking about how to properly arrange those bards, when Leiden walked in from the outside, approached him and said softly.

"Well, let them in!"

Xia Duo glanced at the door, and said, "Don't leave later, come in together."

"Yes." Layton replied, and walked out quickly.

The next moment, under the leadership of Layton, seven bards in brightly colored clothes and various musical instruments came to Xia Duo:

"Honorable Lord Shadow, Lawrence (Kanal, Reid and others) pay tribute to you!"

"Ah."

Xia Duo nodded, and replied quite formally, "Welcome to Da Xia Ling!"

Then he signaled Layton to sit on his right with his eyes, and then carefully looked at the seven bards in front of him.

These seven people are all about 30 years old, with different appearances and temperaments, among which Lawrence is the most outstanding.

Even Xia Duo, who has never paid much attention to other people's appearance, couldn't help but take a second look, and what impressed him the most was Lawrence's deep lake blue eyes that could not be seen to the bottom.

Combined with Bill's previous description, this one should be "Wild Poetry"!

Before seeing these people, Xia Duo had imagined what they looked like, except for "Wild Poetry", the other six bards were pretty much the same as he imagined.

He has a frivolous style and casual behavior. Even in front of him, a senior arcanist, even if he deliberately restrains himself and shows a respectful attitude, the casualness in his eyes will still show from time to time.

Only this "wild poet" has a calm temperament. Even in the face of a senior arcanist, he is still calm and composed, neither showing timidity nor flattering.

Just looking at his appearance and temperament, he doesn't look like a bard at all, but more like a noble person with a long history, or a holy warrior who abides by the precepts.

Without hesitation, Xia Duo immediately pointed to the seat on the left, and said to the seven people in front of him, "Please sit down!"

This was entirely for Lawrence's sake. Based on the first impression, this "wild poet" won Xia Duo's respect, and the others just incidentally.

……

After several people were seated, Xia Duo asked as usual, "What do you guys think of my Da Xia collar?"

"Dear lord, the Great Xia Territory is full of vitality, the people are hospitable and hospitable, and there are many delicacies. If I don't still miss a few friends from Severton, I really want to settle down here."

The one who spoke was a bard named "Red". Xia Duo has not yet matched this name with those exaggerated titles. If this guy does not look up when he speaks, he may Just believe it.

With a beginning, several other people also spoke, but most of them were "like the scenery here", "like the food here", "like the people here", and some even said "like the air here".

In short, it is as good as it sounds, which is already a flattery. Xia Duo was very disappointed about this, and then turned his attention to Lawrence, that is, "Wild Poetry". He was the only one among the few who did not answer.

"Respected Lord Xia Duo, the Great Xia Territory is the most special place I have ever seen. The sculpture of the Code of Law on the square next to it is unheard of in other territories. I am looking forward to what the Great Xia Territory will look like in the future!"

Xia Duo nodded. Although he also valued the delicacies in the territory and wanted to promote it through the mouth of these bards, only the law code and order were what he valued most.

Even Bill noticed that the laws and regulations of the Great Xia Territory were different from those of other places. Xia Duo didn't believe that bards who were very sensitive to various rumors would not notice.

If you don't say it, you just don't want to say it. Lawrence once again won Xiaduo's favor.

However, good feelings belong to good feelings, the key still depends on how well the business is done, if the business is not done well, then even if Xia Duo has good feelings at the beginning, it will soon fade away.

"Everyone, do you still remember the mission documents I asked Captain Bill to hand over to you? Now it's time for you to hand in the mission! Who will come first?"

Xia Duo glanced at the expressions of everyone, except for Lawrence who was calm and composed as always, the faces of the others showed varying degrees of panic.

"Ugh!"

Xia Duo sighed inwardly, and casually clicked on someone, "Red, you were the one who answered first, so let's start with you now!"

"Respect, Lord Xiaduo, I, I—"

In front of Xia Duo, Reid's eyeballs rolled around, no, it really gave him an excuse——

"I created a long poem, but since I haven't seen the Daxia collar before, I left a lot of elements unfilled, and it's somewhat regrettable to show the incomplete work first.

"I want to ask Lord Xiaduo to give me another month, no, one week, I promise to present you the most perfect work!"

When Rhett said this, the others echoed, and even Lawrence nodded seriously, which caught Xia Duo by surprise.

He originally thought that at least he could listen to Lawrence's works first.

However, there is some truth in what Reid said. It would be a pity if the simple literacy textbook that Xia Duo wanted did not have the relevant elements of Da Xia Ling.

I didn't expect this guy to be quick-witted!
"In this case, I will give you another ten days. After ten days, I will see your works. If not, then I think you may have to swim back to Sevington by yourself!"

After speaking, Xia Duo ignored the expressions of the group of people and teleported away.

The task of creating literacy textbooks can be done by several people. If they can't even create a rough draft within ten days, then these people are not the ones he wants, and it is indeed time to let them swim back to Sevington!
