Pioneer Lord: A Leisurely Imperial Life

Chapter 68 What are you doing here?

Explore to the very end.

Karl actually found a treasure chest in a remote corner. When he opened the lid, there was only an iron sword inside.

This iron sword wasn't anything special; the blade was covered in dark red rust, there were several nicks on the edge, and the leather on the hilt had long since rotted away, revealing the decayed wood inside.

Karl picked up the iron sword, weighed it in his hand, and looked at it with disgust.

"Are the people from another world crazy? They're hiding this piece of junk in a box like it's a treasure."

talking.

He flicked the sword with his finger, and with a crisp clang, the beginner's sword in the game was broken in two...

"baffling!"

Richard smiled but did not respond.

There are many ways to obtain equipment in the game.

Firstly, you can purchase items from NPCs using gold coins in the guild shop.

Secondly, if you're lucky, you might catch a treasure chest containing top-tier equipment while fishing.

Thirdly, defeating monsters will randomly drop some rare equipment.

Finally, like this, treasure chests will appear in the mine, from which you can obtain some regular equipment.

However, treasure chests only appear on specific floors, and the deeper the mine, the better the equipment inside the treasure chest.

However, after the game system was adapted to reality, many things changed.

Firstly, without the Explorers Guild, it's impossible to purchase game equipment.

Second.

Fishing won't yield treasure chests, otherwise Karl would definitely be yelling and diving to the bottom of the river to search for them.

Furthermore.

When monsters are killed, they will only drop game materials such as [Slime Sludge], and will not drop equipment like in the game.

The only things that still bear traces of the game are the treasure chests in these mines.

This means that Richard is unable to obtain certain top-tier equipment from games in real life.

such as:

The Neptune Greatsword can only be obtained from fishing treasure chests; the Galaxy Sword can only be obtained by unlocking the secrets of the Desert Temple; and the Dark Sword can only be obtained by defeating Ghost Skulls.

Richard's favorite weapon, the Rainbow Cat Blade, is impossible to obtain in reality.

Based on the system's functionality, once these items appear in reality, they will undoubtedly be the hottest magical equipment.

It would be a pity if it couldn't be obtained, and this kind of dilemma also exists in games.

For example, [Galaxy Sword].

Since duplicates are not allowed, what should the four friends playing online do if they all want to get it?

Very simple.

All you need to do is have one of your friends choose the "Equipment Craftsman" class in the "Job Advancement" mod!

With enough materials, you can craft all the equipment that appears in the game yourself.

With the added blessing of [Equipment Enchantment], all sorts of random affixes can be added, making it even more powerful!

Richard was overjoyed at the thought of the Chiffon Knights' terrifying fighting power in the future.

So he decided to reward himself and started working on the scrap of silk.

...

That night.

The wilderness was utterly silent, save for the rustling of the night wind through the withered grass.

The serfs, who had been busy all day, went to rest early, and many of them were snoring. The militiamen on night duty patrolled around the walls with crossbows in hand.

The guards gathered in a corner of the camp, surrounding the few monsters they had just been assigned, teaching them some simple commands. On a boring night, this was the most interesting activity.

Inside the stone house in the very center of the camp, however, was a completely different scene.

Richard, along with six maids, and the seven of them, didn't have enough fabric for two sets of clothes.

of course.

Lord Richard was certainly dressed neatly, holding a soft ruler in his hand, and smiled slightly at the maids.

"Stand still, one at a time."

The candlelight shone on their faces, making their skin appear even whiter and more delicate. Their eyelashes trembled slightly, carrying a hint of shyness and anticipation.

Richard first measured Lina's height, then her shoulder width, waist circumference, and other measurements.

"The golden ratio deserves a reward!"

He pecked her on the cheek, and Lina blushed and giggled.

Next up is Nicole.

Nicole, though lively by nature, couldn't handle the scene. Her heart pounded as she watched the old man put his hands behind his back.

"It's firm and big, give it a thumbs up!"

Boo!

When it was Celia's turn, she was so nervous that she didn't know what to do. Several times she tried to cover her chest with her hands, but in the end she blushed and lowered her head.

Richard leaned close to her ear and whispered, and she could vaguely hear the words "like" and "talkative," which made her cover her face shyly.

"Petite and charming, give her some encouragement!"

...

Next, I measured the body data of Betty, Martha, and Susan in turn and recorded them on a piece of paper.

Martha is practicing her needlework skills, cutting and sewing.

Narrow bust styles are not only simple and elegant, but also perfectly accentuate the maids' curves.

The pure white silk was as soft and smooth as moonlight, and felt cool and comfortable against the skin, making one sigh with pleasure.

Lina was the first to change, showcasing her slender waist and beautiful curves to the fullest.

In the candlelight, the silk shimmered and glowed with the rise and fall of the chest with each breath.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and her large, watery eyes looked at Richard as she chuckled with a hint of teasing.

"Sir, is it beautiful?"

"nice!"

Richard smiled, his gaze falling on her bra, making no attempt to hide his admiration.

The other maids also changed into their new clothes. Each of them had their own unique figure, from Celia's petite and delicate appearance to Nicole's voluptuous and full figure; all of them were youthful and beautiful.

After eating so much life-sustaining food for so many days, her skin became increasingly fair and radiant, and with the addition of silk, she became even more alluring.

Richard nodded with satisfaction.

A visual feast!

Just as he was about to continue designing the bibs for them, a soft knock came from the living room outside the room.

"Knock knock knock".

The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

Although they were in a room, and separated by two walls, the six maids panicked instantly, like startled deer.

They exchanged a glance and then scrambled into the blankets next to each other, interrupting the pleasant atmosphere and making Richard quite annoyed.

The maids were not fully dressed, so it was obviously inappropriate to have them open the door. He had no choice but to leave the room and open the door himself.

There's usually nothing going on at night. With Da Yun around, even monsters below the Star Radiance level don't dare approach the camp.

If Carl doesn't give me a good reason, I'll make him eat the next batch of garlic when it's ripe.

Richard pulled the latch, but the person standing outside the stone house surprised him slightly.

The person who arrived was not Karl, but Snow Moon.

"Is there something you need?"

Richard raised an eyebrow and asked, his displeasure fading somewhat.

Xueyue was somewhat surprised to see that it was her master who opened the door, and quickly lowered her head.

"Master, I..."

"I'm here to pick up my clothes."

"At dinner, Miss Lina said she didn't want her old linen clothes anymore and wanted to give them to me, telling me to come and pick them up that evening."

Richard turned to look at the closed door of the room and understood.

This girl...

It was most likely intentional.

He glanced at Xueyue and the pair of trembling white rabbit ears on her head, a thought struck him, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"Xueyue, do you like the dresses the maids wear?"

Xueyue's eyes lit up instantly.

"like!"

"They all look so beautiful."

Richard smiled.

"If you become my maid, you can wear such beautiful clothes every day. Would you like to become my maid?"

Xueyue might not be familiar with certain unspoken rules. She tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then asked curiously:

"If I become a maid, will I be able to eat life-giving food every day like Miss Lina and the others?"

In her opinion, what made the maids most enviable was not their beautiful clothes, but the delicious food they could eat every day.

Richard shook his head.

"Of course not. Ordinary maids can only eat ordinary food, only personal maids can eat life-sustaining food every day."

Xueyue quickly pressed for more information.

"So how do I become a personal maid?"

Richard didn't answer directly. He stepped aside to make way for the doorway, beckoned to Xueyue, and spoke with a hint of seduction in his voice.

"You'll see once you come in."

"Don't worry, I won't force you if you don't want to. Even if you're just a regular maid, you can wear pretty clothes and get extra work points every day."

Done.

He gestured for Xueyue to close the door.

Xueyue nodded obediently, closed the door, and followed Richard into the stone house.

Her heart was filled with curiosity: what conditions could allow the maid to eat life-sustaining food every day?

Walk through the living room.

Enter the room.

Xueyue spotted the six maids hiding under the covers at a glance. They only peeked out, their eyes sparkling as they looked at her and chuckled softly.

Xueyue was even more confused. What were they doing?

When Lina saw that the person who came was Xueyue, a sly glint flashed in her eyes.

She threw off the down comforter, jumped off the bed barefoot, and ran quickly to Xueyue's side, taking her hand.

"Oh dear, I forgot to send you the clothes, I'm so sorry."

Xueyue stared blankly at Lina's pure white, narrow-breasted dress and her fair, exquisite figure.

Sudden.

She finally understood what a personal maid was supposed to do!

Her cheeks flushed red as if they were on fire, and her heart pounded so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.

She instinctively wanted to run to another room and escape this place that made her so embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Lina was prepared. She grabbed Xueyue's arm, leaned close to her ear, and whispered a few words.

Xueyue shuddered and looked up at Richard standing to the side, her cheeks flushed and her breathing rapid.

Just then, Lina gently pressed down on her back and gave her a soft push.

Caught off guard, Xueyue let out a soft cry and uncontrollably threw herself into Richard's arms.

"oops!"

Seeing this, Betty and the other maids in bed couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Richard instinctively hugged Xueyue's soft body; he could clearly feel the person in his arms trembling slightly.

He understood what Lina meant, but he didn't take advantage of her vulnerability. He simply pushed Xueyue away gently and reached out to pat her head.

"If you want to leave now, I won't stop you."

His voice was very soft.

It carried a hint of reassurance.

"but..."

"I would prefer you to stay..."

Xueyue stood there, stunned, biting her lip, at a loss. The candlelight reflected on her delicate, fair face, making her indescribably beautiful.
