Chapter 463: Trivial Outside World

After sending Belica and her group away, Mu Hua had at least completed rough arrangements for the small town, not to mention the entire city of Cairns.

After that, the company will gradually develop towards the new urban area. For the time being, the specific affairs may be coordinated by Tina, Rita, Morey, Selma, Barron and others. Mu Hua also has a lot of things to deal with related to his own growth.

Foundation and situation are important, but Mu Hua will not ignore his own strength, which is the key to influencing everything.

"The outside world is avoiding me right now. Is there no problem with Weber?"

The hotel lobby was eerily quiet in the early morning. As an alternative follower of Mu Hua, Melinda sat in the distance, flipping through the magic network projection screen, and occasionally looked up at Mu Hua. Mu Hua did not abuse her, and even arranged a room for her in the hotel.

Deman was also looking through information on the Internet not far away. After everyone left, Mu Hua said to Paige in a self-deprecating manner.

"Those people are not avoiding you, but the ghost of Caines."

"If you act a little more cruelly, even if you get rid of all the ghosts in the city of Cairns, I think there will be many people who will extend olive branches to you and even offer you shelter." Paige said to Mu Hua as if to comfort her.

"Shelter? Why do I need their shelter? Accept their shelter and work for them?" Mu Hua sneered.

"Hehe, look, you are quite clear about it. You have done very well. Don't worry, don't worry about Weber. He is a marquis after all." Padgy said with a smile.

"Marquis? If I'm not mistaken, Heyman should belong to the Earldom of Bridges, right? A marquis living in an earldom?" Mu Hua was surprised. This was the first time he heard someone talk about Webster's title.

"Oh, that happened many generations ago. Most of the titles in the empire were granted at the beginning of the founding of the country. After that, the noble factions declined. In many cases, the strength of a force is related to its foundation."

"Our family encountered misfortune in the early years. The courtyard where our family was based was destroyed. The Knights, including most of the family members, perished along with the destruction of the courtyard."

"Over the generations, although the family territory was gradually annexed by Bridges, it was also because of the title of Marquis that Weber was able to take charge of the Northern Raiders Association." When Padge explained, it was more like gossiping about other families, and she was a little cold when she mentioned Bridges.

"Okay, sorry, I didn't know this before." Mu Hua apologized.

The destruction of a courtyard led to the decline of the Webster family. It seemed that the destruction of the courtyard was rather sudden. This situation is by no means an exception. This is probably the fundamental reason why adventurers still regard the human world as the rear base of mankind.

"Don't mind it. Not to mention me, the title was already like this when it was passed to Waver. Those things themselves have little to do with us."

"But you know that the noble faction has regained power in the north of the empire?"

"You are now considered a member of the noble faction. Waver asked me to remind you not to attach too much importance to the guards and garrisons."

"If possible, try to build a knight order loyal to you. If you are willing to develop a family in the human world, we can provide you with some financial support." Paji said to Mu Hua.

"Well, then what, what do you want?" Without too many surprises or joking attitude, Mu Hua asked seriously.

Not to mention friends, there are countless cases of family members and blood relatives fighting to the death for power and property. A certain amount of money may be secondary, as for work, assets, power and the like, it is normal for brothers to fight over these things until they are bloodied.

Although Mu Hua has a good relationship with Webster and is also close to Page, the nature of the matter has already determined the attitude that should be taken. When it comes to issues of this level, it is certainly impossible to just pat one's back and talk based on personal connections.

"It's nothing for now. The main thing is that Weber doesn't dare to get involved in your situation." Padge looked apologetic.

"Yeah, I understand." Mu Hua nodded.

"If the matter of the Keynes Ghost is settled, Weber wants to get some development and operation priorities here," Paige continued.

"Haha, you really are... I'm planning to develop this place into a ghost city. Are you sure you want that damn priority?" Mu Hua couldn't help but laugh as Padge finished speaking.

Business priority? What priority is needed to develop in Cairns City? It's a ghost town, it's good enough that someone is willing to come here to develop. Although Padge said it seriously, this requirement is simply a disguised way of taking care of Mu Hua.

"Of course, a ghost city ruled by a jealous god is also quite unique, but the prerequisite is that the ghosts here no longer cause too much social impact. We are very sorry for this." Padge said seriously.

"Our Majesty Charles doesn't want to get involved in the affairs of Cairns City, let alone Weber."

"Okay, okay, no need to say polite words. If things stabilize, you can do whatever you want with the new city area. Just consider it as helping me." "If Weber is willing to arrange some staff in the city's authority departments, you can give me a list first. I'm not very interested in this, and you can't really let Youhun take the position." Webster showed enough goodwill to him, and Mu Hua also showed sincerity.

"To be honest, I don't really recommend you to take over the city of Cairns." Padge sighed.

"If I don't accept this place, what will you do as a jealous ghost like me? Settling in the courtyard will be like intruding into the adventurer's territory, and might even attract the likes of the Royal Crown. How about you protect me?" Mu Hua said with a smile.

"I can't protect it." Padge spread her hands.

"Yeah." The two smiled at each other, but did not talk about the previous topic anymore.

Although it is still difficult to predict how the ghost incident will develop, and it is too early to say anything, Webster is willing to help Mu Hua, and Mu Hua is confident that he can deal with the ghost of Caines. As for what will happen in the future, we will have to wait and see.

Putting aside the business, Mu Hua and Padge talked about some trivial matters. Webster now holds several positions in Heyman City, but a big reason is that the nobles who are close to Bridges in the vicinity do not have enough influence in Heyman City for the time being. As time goes by, Webster may have to give up some positions.

Kevin and Annie both have the qualifications to become warriors, but Webster doesn't seem to want them to follow the path of adventurers, and Mu Hua doesn't say much about this.

Paige heard the news that Samantha had killed two branches of the Benson family and caused a river of blood to flow. Paige didn't understand the key point, she only knew that there was armed intervention from the empire. She felt that the empire's unremitting support for Samantha was to put shackles on Mu Hua.

Mu Hua was so angry about this that he couldn't tell Paddy that Samantha had been planning to wipe out the Benson family decades ago.

As for the shackles? Samantha had no intention of taking over Benson's business. As the saying goes, a person with no desires is strong. Once Benson is satisfied, she can take Helen and run away in a minute. If the Empire really wants to put shackles on Mu Hua, then it is overthinking.

According to what Padge said, Princess Ingrid, who plans to stay in the town, seems to be planning to plant a large number of demon snapdragons in the city of Cairns. It is a magical plant that attracts demons if grown properly, but is conducive to the growth of the undead if grown improperly.

Padge guessed that Ingrid was trying to gain fame among the ghosts and reminded Mu Hua to be careful, but Mu Hua just sneered.

If she likes to plant it, let her plant it. That thing is indeed beneficial to the growth of ghosts. But, if you want to win over ghosts? Oh, first ask the goddess of water Aqua if she agrees. . .

After a conversation, Padge did not stay in the town for long, as this place was still the eye of the storm of outside public opinion. Leaving the supplies for Mu Hua, Padge left the Caines area.

Mu Hua didn't take Padget's avoidance to heart. Friends should try not to cause trouble to each other. Besides, given the current situation in Cairns City, Padget couldn't stand it even if she wanted to.

Not to mention Padge, even Tabitha and the other Mu Hua forbade them to get involved in the affairs of the town.

He had no choice because he had become a jealous ghost, and everything about Caines was more suitable for the local ghosts to handle. There was no need to let Tabitha and the others get involved and cause trouble at this time.

After seeing Padge off, Mu Hua put on a cloak and rushed to the courtyard. Melinda hung around Mu Hua like a little tail.

Mu Hua was smelting magic stones along the way, especially the low-level magic stones sent by Paji, which needed to be smelted as soon as possible to prevent the energy from dissipating and turning into stones.

Put the skill stone aside for now, and take out the Hundred Refinements Secret Stone to fill up the Dispel spell first. This magic does not undergo any qualitative change, but its range of effect becomes larger. It is practical, simple, and quite unethical.

Condensation has not been upgraded for the time being, and the frost level is stuck at LV40, lacking the prerequisite of "Frozen Land". Moreover, Mu Hua is afraid of spending too much money, and he still has things to do.

I saved all the magic stone smelting output first and deliberately did not bring the adventurer's certificate when entering the courtyard. What's more, the alarm at the teleportation entrance did not go off.

The privileges of ghosts and gods, in addition to being able to enter and exit the courtyard at will, he seems to have a punishment (killing) target of dozens of people in the courtyard.

At this moment, Mu Hua suddenly thought of the two illegitimate sons who died in a hurry.

Not long ago, he spent all day thinking about how to avoid burying people in the courtyard. Today, not only can he borrow the key from the travel group, but even the Adventurer's Guild has tacitly agreed to his punishment of the offender.

A witch's disaster, a city of ghosts who died in vain, a ghost with the title of "disaster", no one is involved, and no one bothers them.

There are many ironies in the world. (End of this chapter)
