I'm the one running the game

It has to be said that driven by profit, the Sheriff, his son and the captain of the guard worked very hard indeed.

There were no differences caused by competition. Instead, they worked together and have now sent the first batch of perfect quality small earth element essences to Lu Xingshi.

This is 100,000 copies, not just a hundred or so. Naturally, they can only escort them back in batches.

On the road, you have to be careful of bandits or being noticed by other nobles, so you have to be cautious.

Lu Xingshi was also relatively satisfied with the progress of the three of them.

As for him, after tinkering with the crossbows and trebuchets, he spent most of his time studying the bottles of deteriorated white rock potions, and occasionally made targeted suggestions for the development of the territory.

He did not carry out drastic reforms as soon as he came up. Productivity was insufficient and the economic ecology was fragile. If he really wanted to do it randomly, it would be easy to die on the spot.

So you can only change it bit by bit, there is no way to get started at once.

As for the two bottles of white rock medicine that were still effective but weakened due to expiration, they were shelved by Lu Xingshi and were of little use for the time being.

It is impossible to make a new white rock potion and then take it. The earth element in his body has already exceeded the standard. Another potion will only kill him suddenly, not accelerate it.

When the moon is full, it will be waning, and when the water is full, it will overflow.

Suitability is the best. He has long passed the period of wanting everything.

He only covets what he should covet, not what he sees. Even if he gets useless things, they only take up space.

So he turned to study the metamorphic white rock potion, and through its unique pharmacological properties, tried to turn it into a poison or irritating potion to assist in the breakthrough.

As for the conflict between the two extraordinary seeds, the life seed and the soul seed? This has been solved. It can be solved by blending a large amount of earth element essence.

And what might happen next? Let’s talk about it later. Lu Xingshi followed his own path, not the path of a simple knight or wizard.

He suspected that if he consumed too much earth element essence, he might form a unique structure similar to the earth element.

You will gain appearance changes similar to erosion, but gain additional powerful strength accordingly.

Lu Xingshi didn't care about his appearance at all. After all, his body was not a human being. There was no need for a game villain who was similar to an avatar to be so delicate.

Anyway, as long as you can become stronger.

However, there must be flaws, but Lu Xingshi only has paper data for the time being, and no actual data.

We have to wait until he officially possesses the extraordinary seed.

"Is this... considered a success?" Lu Xingshi looked at the strangely turbid new white rock potion type 2 in his hand.

"Through experiments, it can be concluded that after taking it, one's life and spirit can be greatly overdrawn within ten minutes, and one's own strength can be greatly improved within these ten minutes, and a certain degree of mental immunity can be achieved."

"You might die after eating it."

It is equivalent to burning your life in exchange for strength in these ten minutes. If your life is hard enough, you may not necessarily die. At most, you will become a useless person.

"Ordinary people take it for the best effect. After becoming extraordinary, the higher the level, the lower the effect and the shorter the duration."

After gaining strength, the stimulant made by a mere apprentice potion also wants to shake his vitality and mental power?

At this stage, Lu Xingshi doesn't have much extraordinary power to make such a powerful potion regardless of level.

"A young man, within these ten minutes, should be able to compare with a formal knight who inspired the seeds of life."

"The effect will be much worse for young people, the elderly, and sick patients."

After all, what is burning is life and spirit, and there will definitely be differences. We cannot let an old man and a young man have the same life and spirit.

"It's a pity that the cost is too high, otherwise it would be very suitable for cultivating dead soldiers."

The white rock potion used was deteriorated white rock potion. If Lu Xingshi could make a white rock potion without problems, he could directly train knights. What a one-time dead soldier.

Besides, this thing is actually not that easy to deteriorate.

After all, it is an extraordinary potion.

"A penny can stump a heroic man. Poverty is indeed the original sin."

If Lu Xingshi had money, how could he live so carelessly and even use spoiled medicine?

If he had money now, he would surely die as miserably as he could. If a viscount were to be as rich as the country, he would only be targeted instead of spending money like water.

The ecological niche of the Viscount is there, and if you cross the line, you will definitely get into trouble.

However, under normal circumstances, the ecological niche of each noble will not change much.

After all, class has basically been solidified, so how can you climb up?

Especially for a pioneering lord like Lu Xingshi, if he wanted to obtain a higher title, he had to develop a larger territory.

The feudal nobles were a little better and could be promoted through some special favors, but they would never be higher than their lord.

If your master is an earl, the highest you can get is a viscount.

Lu Xingshi was actually able to enfeoff, but he could only enfeoff barons.

The enfeoffed nobles would have rights and may also obtain a territory, but both the rights and the territory were given by the nobles who enfeoffed them, and it was only a matter of words to take them back.

The vast majority of feudal nobles are actually just nobles with no actual power. At most, they are just businessmen who are rich and don't have to worry about being slaughtered as pigs.

Similar to an honorary title.

Like Lu Xingshi, he is only a viscount, but when he meets an earl without real power among the feudal nobles, he can not give him face.

The other party is just a mascot, and no one is willing to offend a pioneer lord with the title of viscount for him.

Unless he is paid.

"In addition to being an overdraft burst potion, it can also be used as a poison, but the color and taste issues must be dealt with."

"Even if the life and spirit are not completely overdrawn within ten minutes, after this tossing, not only will half of his life be left, but he will probably become an idiot."

Lu Xingshi thought about it, and the number of one-time death warriors must be large, but the deteriorated white rock potion in his hand is definitely not enough.

So it is better to use it as poison.

For example, poisoning a great duke can directly cause turmoil in the kingdom.

If two or three more are poisoned, it will definitely cause a large-scale chaos.

With the criminal investigation technology of this era, if Lu Xingshi takes action, they will never find out.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingshi slapped his head.

"Why poison the Grand Duke? I can just poison the King. Wouldn't that cause the whole kingdom to fall into chaos? Then I can just take advantage of the situation." Lu Xingshi found the key point.

"I remember that the King didn't seem to have a prince, but a princess."

It's not uncommon for a princess to inherit the throne and become the Queen. In fact, there are also women who inherit the title.

Although there are more men, there are similar cases.

Compared to the throne, which can only be inherited by unmarried princesses, princes, brothers and sisters, uncles, and unmarried aunts in the same family, the title can be inherited by a wife.

It's mainly because of the legal issue of surnames. Women have to change their surnames to their husband's surnames to join their families after marriage. It's an old feudal tradition.

If there's no benefit, naturally they have to strike hard.

But the benefit is the title, so they must be submissive.

"The King's princess seems to have a big reputation."

"And I remember that not long ago, the King married a bride for this princess." Lu Xingshi recalled. This was some of the little things he saw during his time as a wandering knight.

It is not clear whether it is true or not, and Lu Xingshi has never been to the capital.

The housekeeper has been there, but he came back as soon as he went, and did not stay for too long, for fear of delaying Lu Xingshi's business.

So he doesn't know much.

"It just feels a little familiar for some reason, it shouldn't be my problem."

Lu Xingshi recalled, as if he had found a fairy tale of a stepmother queen and a stepdaughter princess who loved and hated each other.

"The king is still very healthy, and the story of Snow White should not be staged."

"Why should I care about the trivialities of the royal family." Lu Xingshi also came back to his senses. Even if Snow White was staged, what did it have to do with him.

For him, it was a good thing.

"So who should this bottle of poison be used to poison?" Lu Xingshi's eyes once again returned to the new white rock potion type 2 in his hand.

Poisoning the king is to maximize benefits, but the question is how to detoxify?

The king also lives in a castle similar to Lu Xingshi, but the castle is larger, the environment is better, and the facilities are more complete.

He would not leave the castle easily. Even if he saw the other party, he might not have the opportunity to poison him.

The new white rock potion took effect quickly, and Lu Xingshi had no way to clear his suspicion in time.

As for waiting for the magic skill to be fully developed before detoxifying? Then why would he poison his ass? He could just drive the queen directly in front of the king, and the other party could only watch helplessly. Why would he need to make such an effort?

So it is useful now, but it cannot be used.

It can be used in the future, but it is no longer useful.

"If it doesn't work, just give it to Grand Duke Haipa."

"Although it is a bit of a waste, it is better than smashing it in your hands."

The king had no chance and could only choose Grand Duke Haipa, who was slightly less difficult, because he had offended him.

A gentleman's revenge is never too late.

But a villain's revenge is naturally from morning to night.

It is rare to have such a good opportunity. Lu Xingshi can send Grand Duke Haipa to his death.

As for how to poison...

This is also a problem. It requires planning. In terms of overall difficulty, it is much easier than poisoning the king.

The guards of the King's Castle were extremely strict, and there were people testing the poison.

The Grand Duke... shouldn't have any?

Lu Xingshi was not sure, he was just a viscount, not a duke, and there was a blind spot in the knowledge of the nobles.

If Grand Duke Hepa couldn't be poisoned, Lu Xingshi would have to settle for the next best thing, randomly select a noble closest to him to send him off.

Anyway, it had to be used, and it must not be wasted.

Otherwise, the cost of the experiment would be sunk, there would be no value at all, and it would be a complete loss. Lu Xingshi would be happy to cause chaos and gain some benefits.
