The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

“I am a nobleman, and I know very well why nobles fight so hard to obtain titles. If he were normal, he would inherit the title even if he died. That is the mindset a nobleman should have.”

“Instead of abandoning the soon-to-be-acquired Marquis's daughter and the title of Marquis just for the sake of some desire in his crotch,” Lana said resolutely.

Xue's Law silently began to ponder.

He didn't know much about the human customs of this world, but now, after listening to the girl's explanation, he was able to construct a model.

That is, the nobles of this world are closer to the aristocratic families before the Han Dynasty, valuing their status and titles more than their own lives.

However, it's one thing for ordinary people to try to satisfy their desires by threatening Lana, but it just shows they've really gone too far.

However, it seems rather unworthy for the second son of the Grand Duke to abandon his title, which is more important than life itself, for such a trivial desire.

As for whether he was attracted to Lana's status as the daughter of Countess Lana, or whether he was confident that he would return safely from his expedition and obtain a title...

Firstly, if he truly coveted Lana's status as a daughter of the Earl's family, he shouldn't have resorted to such a despicable threatening method. Instead, a romantic "hero saves the beauty" scenario would have been far more appropriate.

Xue's Law doesn't believe that noble families lack basic manners. Lana's method of gathering information while gossiping among noble ladies proves that the nobles in this world at least have some ability in terms of upbringing.

As for the second one...

Xue's Law didn't think the second son of the Grand Duke's family, who couldn't inherit the title, was a fool. He wondered whether the difference between marrying a marquis's daughter to rise to power and live off his wife to become a marquis or starting from scratch as a baron was enormous.

Marquis was similar to the Cao, Yang, and Chen families in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, while baron was at most the level of the Mi family, Liu Bei's brother-in-law. The difference could be hundreds of times.

No, this kind of situation where people value their crotch above everything else...

Could it be caused by the descent of Zeus?

Xue's law suddenly had a very strange conjecture.

“Indeed, this behavior is very problematic. Not only the second son of that duke, but also that commoner who threatened you, are both very problematic…” Xue Dinglu thought, and for some reason, he thought again of the little beggar who had summoned him and was so arrogant and foolish.

He had felt that the little beggar was unusual at the time, and now, comparing him with the other two people Lana mentioned, he suddenly realized that the situation of those two people was very similar to that of the little beggar.

Just as Xue Dinglu and the countess's daughter were deep in thought, their fingers tapping incessantly on the table, there was a knock on their door.

"Please come in." Lana opened the door directly. She thought it was the royal court mystic who had come, or that he had brought some ritual props and materials that Xue Lude needed.

But the person who opened the door was not a member of the royal family, but another heroic spirit, the one-eyed pirate woman.

"Sorry, I might have interrupted your conversation, but Viscount Madman, I have something very important to discuss with you." The Heroic Spirit casually sat down in Lana's original spot.

This action seemed to annoy the noble lady of the count's family, but she still silently stepped aside and gave a slight bow.

Although both Xue and the pirate woman noticed her dissatisfaction, Lana maintained a good facade.

But the female heroic spirit didn't seem to care about the noble lady beside her, and said directly, "Little girl, you should listen to this too. Although it's a scandal, what I want to say is, haven't you all noticed that all the hosts are quite strange?"

Her words startled both Xue Luding and Lana. After exchanging a glance, Xue Luding said, "Explain in detail."

“Young lady, I’ve noticed you. You were being harassed by those other two, weren’t you?” the pirate woman said directly.

Lana's lips twitched, but she nodded nonetheless. She felt uncomfortable talking to such a rude and barbaric pirate.

"Heh, what's interesting is that the kid asked me to sleep with him tonight. Heh, I'm his great-grandmother!" The pirate woman sneered, then said something that Xue Luding and Lana never expected.

The noblewoman blushed for a moment, then quickly recovered and began to analyze the situation.

After being shocked, Xue's Law also began to analyze it.

Are people in this world really that sexually repressed?

It should be understood that this so-called Heroic Spirit Summoning is essentially an alternative form of "resurrection of the dead." Just as the entity that gave birth to Zeus was actually just a wooden figure, the entities of all other Heroic Spirits, except for Xue's Law, are dead people.

As soon as a heroic spirit leaves the body, it will immediately die and turn into a pile of rotten flesh.

And now, even more outrageous, the child of that count in that remote coastal area actually wants his dead ancestor to sleep with him.

Xue Lude glanced at Lana and could only say that her aristocratic family really knew how to play games. If this was a normal phenomenon, then the chaos in her world was comparable to that of ancient Greece.

Lana noticed Xue Luding's gaze and quickly said, "We have no such tradition; this would be a disgrace to our honor!"

“Heh, I thought so too.” The pirate woman put her long legs up on the table and said, “I don’t think it’s normal for a humanoid creature to appear among my descendants. Even if he does have desires, he should be targeting you, the beautiful young lady from the Earl’s family, just like the other two boys. You should be the type that group of boys like the most, not a dead man like me.”

"Then what brings you here to see His Excellency the Viscount? If you're just here to complain, then let's see you out." The young girl, not as thick-skinned as the pirate woman, finally couldn't help but turn her face dark and wanted to see him out.

"Don't be angry, I'm just here to join forces with the Mad Viscount." The pirate woman stared intently at Xue Dinglu, and then she smiled. "I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very strong, and I can absolutely trust you, at least until there is a conflict of interest between us. How about we join forces?"

"Haven't we already joined forces? To fight the demons," Lana said, puzzled.

“It’s different. This time, my alliance is to find out the problem. I always feel that the empire and the nobles are facing many problems that I can’t even imagine.” The pirate woman said, extending her hand to Xue Dinglu. “How about it? Cooperation? Not to deal with the demons, but to investigate why the nobles are like this.”

Xue's Law: "..."

Is it possible that the person in front of you is the culprit?

Xue Law really wondered if it was because he had released the breeding Zeus that such an incredible thing happened.

"Why did you choose us?" Lana continued to ask.

"I told you, I have a very good impression of your familiar, this mad viscount," the pirate woman said impatiently.

Xue Dinglu paused for a moment. This should be the normal situation for his "human protection". His basic charm value is very high. Generally speaking, a stranger will have a friendly or above-friendly impression of him.

This reminded Xue of the little beggar who had summoned him. Why was the little beggar so hostile to him?

"Knock knock knock!" The door was knocked on again.

The people inside were stunned for a moment, but Lana thought that this might be the real court mystic who had come to deliver materials and props, so she said "Please come in" and opened the door.

However, it was not the court mystic who appeared at the door, but another heroic spirit.

The only two female among these six heroic spirits, the archer.

At this moment, she was like a cold wind in an icy plain, her face was very ugly, and she looked coldly at the pirate woman who was also in the room, in addition to Xue Luding and his master.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Lana continued to bow slightly and asked.

"Mad Viscount, I know your background. A brilliant occultist, you should be able to exploit loopholes in the contract, right?" To everyone's surprise, the archer ignored Lana and instead coldly asked Xue Dinglu.

"Hmm? What is it?" Xue Dinglu adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and asked with a smile.

“Take control of me, become my host, and then kill that kid,” the archer said coldly.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. In an instant, the pirate woman who was about to speak shut her mouth and looked at the heroic spirit who was about to devour its master.

"Why?" Xue asked calmly.

“He wanted to control me and force himself on me,” the stern-faced female archer said.

In an instant, the room fell silent, with only the light from the magic lamp remaining.

Both Lana and the pirate girl couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

At this moment, they suddenly realized that out of the six master-servant pairs, apart from Xue Luding and Lana's pair who were behaving the most normally, two of them had been harassing Lana all day. Two of them might be thinking of having some kind of negative relationship with their female Servants.

The last remaining host of the mystic did not seem to have these problems.

Even so, out of the six hosts, four of them exhibited extremely outrageous and bizarre ideas today.

This time, Xue's Law didn't even consider Zeus, but instead thought of many other places.

Zeus was summoned in the Earl's cellar. If the power of reproduction were to leak, the Earl's family would be the first to suffer, as well as Lana, who is closest to Xue's Law.

However, it was clear that Lana was perfectly normal, even extremely lucid, and showed no signs of being manipulated or affected by the breeding process.

From this perspective, the real problem isn't about breeding Zeus, but rather what makes Lana different from the others.

Where?

Xue Luding suddenly realized that he had not actually signed a contract with Lana, but had instead completely hypnotized her into believing that he had signed a contract. Xue Luding was now her familiar.

Even so, the young girl remained very polite to Xue Lude.

If there's anything different, it's the contract!

He immediately looked at Lana, but Lana was completely confused.

The archer seemed to be waiting for Xue's reply, saying, "How about it, Mad Viscount? I at least have some goodwill towards you. Become my host, then help me kill that person, and I'll take responsibility for all the consequences."

Xue remained silent. He did not respond directly to the archer, but said, "I think I understand the reason for the problem. Wait a moment, I will conduct an experiment."

He looked at Lana and said directly, "Lana, I'm asking you now. I may understand why the other hosts are abnormal. Now I want to conduct an experiment on you, but I promise that if your mind is also distorted, I will definitely help you recover."

After Xue finished speaking, everyone else was stunned, and Lana's expression became even stranger.

But she seemed to have no hesitation at all, and said directly, "Let's go straight to it. I trust you more."

Perhaps it's because of the high level of favorability.

Xue Dinglu directly found the old Heroic Spirit Contract and handed it to Lana.

"A Heroic Spirit Contract?" She tilted her head in confusion.

“Sign it again; this is the first step of the experiment,” Xue said.

Lana signed her name without hesitation.

The next moment, it seemed as if some unseen connection was established, but nothing seemed to change.

The other two heroic spirits were also completely bewildered, not understanding what Xue's Law and his servant were doing.

Suddenly, Lana's expression changed. The once proud and wise noblewoman's face was now contorted, revealing a madness and lust that caught everyone off guard: "Mad Viscount! Kneel down! Suck my toes, and I command you to serve me well tonight! Serve me until I am satisfied. This is your master's order to you, my dog!"

Chapter 330 I'm really sorry, I didn't make you use your full strength.

This sudden change caused everyone present to shrink their pupils.

Whether it was the female pirate who thought she had seen through Lana or the newly arrived archer, they were both so shocked that they couldn't speak when they saw Lana, who seemed to have completely transformed into another person in an instant.

Even Xue Lude, who had roughly confirmed the situation before the experiment, shook his head slightly when he saw the originally talented noblewoman turn into this state.

"This is the truth behind what you find strange. I don't know why, but as long as a Heroic Spirit Contract is signed, one becomes completely distorted, turning into such an arrogant, sarcastic, and mean-spirited being. This is not my imagination... but that little beggar, was he himself distorted by the contract?" Xue Dinglu looked at Lana, who was looking up at him with great dissatisfaction.

At this moment, "Lana" was so arrogant that she didn't care about Xue's attitude at all. Her eyes were like poisoned silver needles, and when she swept over everyone present, they always carried three parts mockery and seven parts disgust.

"Can't you understand human language? Familiar? Or are you not even as good as a dog that knows how to obey commands? Kneel down!" She immediately glared at Xue Dinglu, seemingly preparing to forcefully issue the order.

Unexpectedly, Xue Dinglu appeared behind her and delivered a karate chop to the back of her neck. The girl, who had instantly transformed from an intellectual noblewoman into a little devil, fainted with her eyes rolling back.

The archer and the female pirate were stunned. They looked at Xue Luding, completely unable to understand why Xue Luding was able to attack the host.

The contract contains a restriction that prevents the familiar from harming its host, which is why they can only come to Xue Dinglu for help.

"Hmm... I made a slight modification to the contract," Xue Dinglu explained casually. The only difference was that the second party on Lana's contract was not Xue Dinglu, but "Zeus the Breeder".
