Transmigrated with a Demon-Refining Pot: Hehehe, Refine in an instant

After sailing for some time, Ron finally had the opportunity to carefully take stock of his spoils.

Leaving aside the silver, the most valuable item left is the original liquid that Ron intercepted.

That's a full 70%!

Margaret hunted relentlessly all day, reaping a bountiful harvest from land, sea, and air. She slayed the monsters in the nearby waters, deterring them from even daring to show their faces.

They've finally fattened Ron up.

Although I later exchanged quite a bit for Margaret, it was a case of going out and coming in! The more I accumulated, the more there was.

He set aside 50% to bring to Margaret next time. The other 20% went into inventory for his own use.

This is of much higher quality than the original liquid he collected himself. It is basically made from first-tier magical beasts, and the lowest quality is from quasi-tier magical beasts.

Lord Ron no longer values ​​the goblins and kobolds' refining techniques; he'll now use them as a bonus for his men.

Ron unscrewed a bottle of deep red concentrate, took a sniff, and exclaimed, "Hey~ this smell is really strong, powerful!" He downed half the bottle in one gulp.

Ron's body was like a red-hot iron, glowing bright red and steaming with heat. It took him a long time to calm down and suppress the surge of energy.

Ron hurriedly went to find the pink-haired girl to spar with.

"Ouch! Brother, it's hot..."

The ship sailed at sea for a day and a night.

Finally, in the evening of the second day, they arrived at the territory's port.

However, as soon as Ron stepped off the ship, his men rushed over and told him some bad news.

The Earl of Bauhinia has sent someone.

Now that they were in Linshui Territory, Elise immediately sent someone to inform Ron.

Unfortunately, Ron was riding a dragon on the island at that time.

Ron's expression turned cold upon hearing the news, but he didn't panic. He first settled Lilith in before leading the entire ship to the estate.

Upon arriving at the territory, they saw Perrin rushing towards them. The old administrator's forehead was covered in sweat, and his complexion was not good.

"My lord, you're finally back."

Ron sent him to gather his men for a meeting, which allowed him to obtain more detailed information.

The other party arrived at Linshui Territory two days ago, and the leader was a formal knight named Sam. Ron's expression turned solemn when he heard this.

However, they did not interrupt and continued to listen to Lauen's report.

The other party was staying in Linshui Territory under the pretense of visiting relatives, and did not forcibly break into the Linshui Territory castle. They set up camp in the open area outside the castle, sending people to patrol the area every day, without clashing with Elise's people.

He hasn't caused any trouble in the past two days, except for sending a visiting card to the territory, saying he wanted to personally thank Ron for taking care of Elise recently.

However, upon hearing that Ron was not in the territory, they did not disturb him further.

Ron thought to himself, "This newcomer doesn't seem friendly!"

This is not something that can be dismissed simply by preserving his original interests.

Earl Bauhinia wants more, even to oust Ron and take over the waterfront territory for himself.

However, the newcomer also had his reservations; a formal knight wouldn't dare to start a brawl in pioneering territory. To say there were bandits of formal knight rank would be an insult to everyone's intelligence.

If you can't even come up with a proper excuse, the powerful nobles behind them can still beat you up.

Ron glanced at the detailed information Elise had sent, but he didn't believe it entirely; he didn't know Elise's current situation.

We can only compare and analyze the intelligence with previous intelligence.

Ron had heard Elise describe the Bauhinia Territory before; it had four official knights.

One was Earl Bauhinia himself, and the others were the local sheriff, the commander of the knights, and a baron loyal to the family.

Both the sheriff and the knight commander were trained by the Bauhinia family, and upon reaching the rank of full knight, they were granted the title of baron and fiefdom. However, their focus remained on their territorial duties, while the family was managed by the heir.

The one who came this time was the Knight Commander, Baron Sam. He brought twenty knights, all of whom were at least low-ranking knights or squires.

Ron was making plans in his mind.

The opponent was at the early stage of Tier 1 four years ago; I wonder if they have improved in the past few years.

Even though he had advanced a small rank, Ron didn't back down.

Although his fighting spirit is only at the early stage of the first rank, he can still easily defeat a mid-level opponent with his beast-like physique.

It might be difficult to keep him here, and if we can't wipe out the enemy, there's no point in fighting.

Ron leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the table.

Earl Bauhinia's attention to the Waterfront Territory was greater than he had anticipated. He had even dispatched a full-fledged knight, along with twenty knightly squires. That was quite a show of force.

It's impossible to say he had no ulterior motives. But the fact that he didn't take direct action suggests he left himself room to maneuver.

After all, official knights can't stay in the frontier forever; they'll have to return sooner or later. And it's difficult to directly attack the River Reef. The only option is pressure.

Ron thought for a while and decided to meet the other party.

"Send someone to invite Baron Sam to go hunting in the wild tomorrow."
