Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 123 - 117: Gem Collector

The leader of Baron Harun’s family is Harun’s wife, Olaya.

Olaya is not a delicate noble lady.

She wore a set of won’s armor, standing tall and straight.

Luo De rembered that Harun had ntioned his wife was a lady knight.

She was adopted by Harun’s father and grew up with Harun.

Harun fell into despair after his father’s death, and Olaya stayed by his side, and the two got together.

"Thank you for your kindness, for giving the chance to bring my husband back."

Olaya nodded slightly in salute, her voice gentle as she spoke to Luo De, "May I see my husband first?"

"Of course."

Luo De nodded.

Luo De had already agreed that Baron Harun could leave at any ti. Olaya was just here to exchange those soldier captives.

And Olaya brought along a group of slaves, full of sincerity, so naturally, such a small request like visiting was granted.

Luo De let Olaya’s team follow Lawrence to the inn, and then he took Olaya to find Harun.

Harun was treated quite well. Luo De gave him a separate wooden house, with als also provided separately, giving him ample noble treatnt.

Aside from lacking freedom, Baron Harun could do whatever else he pleased.

— This was still to protect Baron Harun’s personal safety, to prevent anything from happening to him while in Luo De’s care.

Luo De even allowed Harun to self-solve so physical needs at his own expense.

When the guard opened the door, Harun was reading Empire history at a table, his eyes lighting up noticeably upon seeing his wife Olaya appear.

"Olaya!"

"My lord Baron!"

Without any extra words, the two embraced tightly.

"You two have a good talk first."

Reunion is sweeter than marriage.

Luo De voluntarily stepped out and asked the guard to close the door.

Before long, suggestive sounds emanated from within the room.

The guards couldn’t help but let their mouths curve upwards.

Luo De gave Baron Harun and his wife the entire afternoon.

It wasn’t until dinner ti that Luo De, along with Durant and others, invited Baron Harun and his wife to dine together.

During the al, Olaya once again thanked Luo De for taking care of Baron Harun, then reported on the number of slaves they brought this ti.

"Sixteen elite to exchange for ninety-six slaves, ordinary soldiers to exchange for one hundred and eighteen slaves, fifty-eight militian to exchange for one hundred and sixteen slaves, a total of three hundred and thirty people."

Olaya explained, "Among them, there are one hundred and three adult n, the rest are won."

"I’m sorry, there aren’t that many suitable n slaves, so there are a little more won. I specifically bought a stone mason and a blacksmith as compensation."

Harun’s facial muscles twitched continuously upon hearing this — it was a real bleeding this ti.

But he had no choice, for the task given by Count Hawk could not be ignored.

Even though he had beco passive and didn’t care about losing the battle, he didn’t expect to fall into a trap.

The ransom can only be paid by himself.

Now Baron Harun cannot make enemies freely, or else all previous efforts would go to waste.

At this point, Baron Harun could only put all the resentnt on Count Hawk.

"Alright, I understand."

Luo De nodded.

"We can make the exchange tomorrow, and your people are in good shape too, their injuries almost healed."

Luo De casually remarked, "However, Harun, don’t you plan to use that Extraordinary Gem to mitigate the losses?"

Regarding the Extraordinary Gem that can see the darkness, Luo De had no expectations.

But Luo De looked forward to unlocking his own perk effect.

Harun glanced at Olaya, who understood and took out an exquisitely carved wooden box from her bosom.

Harun took the wooden box, opened it, and placed it in front of Luo De.

Underneath the white fur padding was a dull black gem.

"This is the Extraordinary Gem I ntioned."

Harun demonstrated by holding it in his hand,

"As long as you hold it in your hand, you can see the darkness."

Luo De nodded, taking the Extraordinary Gem from Harun’s hand.

A chilling sensation imdiately swept over from his hand, sowhat akin to the Spirit Gem but with a faint pricking sensation when held.

Harun’s so-called "seeing darkness" wasn’t complete darkness, but rather the vision gradually losing color and darkening as if stained by ink.

[Acquired an Extraordinary Gem, Gem Collector progress: 5/5]

[Collected five different varieties of Extraordinary Gems, unlocked perk: Gem Collector]

Luo De appeared calm upon seeing the prompt, but inside, he was very pleased.

Just as he imagined, obtaining it ant it was collected.

[Gem Collector (Purple): You are able to absorb so energy from Extraordinary Gems, improving your body and soul, acquiring the ability to manipulate energy (but please absorb the energy that suits you)]

[Next perk: Acquire a hundred Extraordinary Gems and absorb their energy, unlocking perk: Extraordinary Lord]

...

This perk of Gem Collector left Luo De very satisfied, and he was eager to know what effects energy absorption would yield.

However, Luo De remained patient, smiling as he placed the Extraordinary Gem back in the box.

While unlocking the perk, Luo De also knew that this gem is called the Shadow Gem, containing Shadow Power.

"A very magical gem,"

Luo De retracted his gaze to look at Baron Harun, "but it seems to be of little use. If the price is right, I am willing to collect it."

The next perk is too far off, and Luo De doesn’t want to spend too much Gold Coin on it for now.

He currently has three Extraordinary Gems in hand, and after testing the [Gem Collector] capability, there’s still ti to allocate resources.
