Advent of the Archmage Chapter 207: This weather makes life impossible (2/4)
Two days later, Doras brought Link and Celine into the Field Wilderness.
After running for ten minutes in the wilderness, Dorath couldn't help but: "Linke, this is your territory? Seriously, I have lived for almost 400 years. This is the most barren I have ever seen. Somewhere, I crouched here and shited, I felt like I was pierced with stones. "
Xilin only frowned: "This situation is much worse than I expected."
Along the way, Link is saying that the territory is very barren, and one person and one tiger are also mentally prepared. Well, barrenness is also normal, but when you really see it, it is still difficult to accept.
It's more than barren. This is a pile of rocks. It doesn't matter how many coins you drop.
Although Link is ambitious and has a plan in mind, the reality is indeed a bit bad, and he can only chuckle and laugh: "It will be fine, this is only temporary."
While talking, the weather changed, and the wind started to rise. After ten minutes, the wind rose, with raindrops in between, and ten minutes later, God turned his face completely, and used a storm with hail. Welcome two new guests into the wilderness.
"No wonder you want to change the climate." Celine was taken aback by this violent weather. Dorath had a wind elemental shield. They did not get rain or slammed hail, but Faced with this climate, what should ordinary people do? How does this place grow crops?
Doras walked deep in the mud, he carefully asked Link: "You said you would hire someone to serve me, can I choose to give up? As long as you let me go to Gwent Forest and stay Just fine. "
He doesn't think this place is suitable for his life, and if he stays here, his life will be 100 years shorter.
"We all said yes, you will repent so soon? What about the credibility of the Xiaofeng Tigers?" Link asked.
"Ah ~~~~~"
Doras snarled in sorrow and continued helplessly. He felt like he was being pitted, but he was a trustworthy howling tiger .... He forbeared for the tigress promised by Link!
After walking for a long time, Jiaotuling appeared in sight.
Although there is no magician in Jiaotuling, just in case, before entering the camp, Link passes a delicate necklace to Celine: "The camouflage pendant can completely shield your breath, inside There is also a storage space. "
This is Link's creation in a carriage on the south road. Although it is a hurry, under Link's obsessive-compulsive disorder, this thing is still delicate.
The main body of the necklace made of gilt gold is shining like purple lavender, which is mixed with the shimmering star of Thorium silver. Finally, the pendant is made of the finest material Dokun stone for space equipment. This piece The space stone like sheep fat jade was crystal clear by Sander.
Xilin fell in love with a glance, but she did n’t reach out, raised her chin slightly, and said to Link behind him, "You put it on me."
Linke smiled softly, and gently put the pendant on Celine's long neck. From his perspective, she could inadvertently see the white light in Celine's collar.
Looking at Lin Ke, he jumped heavily, hurriedly retracted his eyes, and coughed softly: "Doras, don't lose your temper when you get to the camp, and don't make fun of people, it will cause panic."
"I know. Don't forget the promise you made."
Linke said to Celine again: "When you arrive in the territory, don't show your skills at will, just keep mystery."
"What is my identity?" Celine turned and looked at Link with a smile.
This question is difficult to answer. Link considered it for more than ten seconds: "You are a friend I brought back from the south ..... good friend, well, that's it."
He wanted to speak more intimately, but he was afraid that Celine was unhappy. He said that he was alienated, and he was not willing to do so, and eventually became a good friend.
Xilin made a sigh and turned around. There was no unhappy expression on her face, but she wasn't happy either, and that was all set.
Linke's south is only 4 days. These days, Jiaotuling is basically spent in the storm. From a distance, Link can faintly see potholes on the ground. There are wooden boards blown by the wind everywhere. Occasionally, there were people who hurried past and then retracted into the room.
In such a climate, the harbour cannot be built, and everything else in the territory must be stopped. A group of people are sitting in the house, basically in a state of boredom and waiting.
‘This wo n’t work. The climate issue must be resolved as soon as possible! ’Link feels that the problem is very urgent and has greatly affected the progress of territorial construction.
Fortunately, the alertness of the Flamingo Mercenary Regiment was still satisfying to Link. When Dorath appeared more than 50 meters away from the city wall, although the storm was already pouring down, the highest sentry tower still sounded the enemy. Assaulting the alarm horn.
A short while later, the soldier who had originally contracted in the sentry tower and sheltered from the rain in the corner of the wall rushed out in the heavy rain. After another ten seconds, the heavily armed Yak also appeared on the wall.
This reaction speed made Link nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, Yake also saw Link on the tiger's back. He wiped the rain on his face, raised his hand to stop the archer beside him, and shouted, "It's Lord Lord coming back, put down your weapon! "
The mercenaries also saw Link, and their original nervousness relaxed.
Such a beast that is more than four meters tall is under tremendous pressure, but the lord is sitting on its back. This should be no problem. In the eyes of these mercenaries, the lord can do everything, even if he is riding A giant tiger and a beautiful woman were brought back, and that was normal.
Enter the Scorched Ridge from the gate of the camp, Link and Celine descend from Dorath's back, and Yake, Gridan, and Lucy have already ushered in the rain.
Linke waved and said, "Don't stand outside and talk in the room."
He then said to a mercenary captain: "You need to find some workers. The manpower is enough. Be sure to set up a large shed in an hour to shelter Doras from the rain. This is this. Salary for temporary arrangements will be distributed in accordance with regulations. "
Linke handed 10 gold coins to the mercenary captain.
The workers who came to his territory were all freelancers who ran from the Winter Forest to make money. His lord's order was not easy to use. He could only open the way with gold coins, and both sides had a detailed agreement on the specific salary. For example, if you rush to work in the rain, if you work for half a day, one worker will pay 1 silver coin.
In this regard, Link is never in arrears. He always checks out directly after he finishes his work. Therefore, despite the poor living conditions in this camp, there are still a steady group of workers following Link.
"Yes, sir." The captain of the mercenary turned to organize the workers.
Linke said to Lucy again, "Go ask the head chef and slaughter a cow and cook it for Doras. Oh, Doras is the name of this tiger."
Doras then said directly: "One cow is not enough. Two heads are not required. You don't need to cook it for me. Just give it to me. I'm starving."
His words scared everyone, but being able to speak meant that he could communicate, and the fear of everyone suddenly dropped a lot.
Lucy went straight to the corral in the corral. Dorath knew that there was something to eat, and followed him honestly.
Linke entered the house.
At the lobby, Link introduced to everyone: "This is Celine Furan, it is ... one of my magic apprentices and my friend."
This magical apprentice was Link's clever idea, but it reminded of Celine's experience of learning magic at the Fleming School of Magic.
Linke then introduced Celine and others to Celine.
Yake and others greeted Celine, and Celine also gave a decent response. With a warm smile on her face, Link took a careful look at her and wanted to see her thoughts, but he was always very hot. Observation was not working at this time. After watching it several times, he couldn't understand Celine's mind. In the end, he simply didn't want to.
Lucy is here too, and Link introduces her to Celine again.
Lucy's eyes are much sharper, and she glanced between Celine and Link a few moments, then suddenly smiled, and then said enthusiastically, "Ciline, you look so pretty."
However, the praise of Link's mother Lilith that day was passed on to Celine.
Xilin laughed: "Sister Lucy, you are also a big beauty."
Lucy sighed: "Oh, I am old."
When speaking, she gave a subconscious glance at Link, who didn't notice, and was chatting with Yak, and Lucy was a little disappointed. Celine found out that she would be close to the enemy. Lucy seemed to like Link too. She had to be careful.
Linke didn't expect a secret consideration among women. He sat down at the long table and said, "This weather is really a delay, but I have found some solutions. After a week, I will go out again. One trip, when I come back, I will start to act. "
This is a heart-strengthening agent. The faces of all the people are showing hope. Although the territory is very barren, there is still hope for change. The weather alone is too foolish, and the manpower cannot fight it. With a solution, everyone was relieved.
The atmosphere suddenly became active, and everyone started talking, talking about future plans, while Link listened and occasionally interjected a few words, but discussed several feasible ways.
At this time, there was a man coming in outside the door, but it was Carrido, the magician of the mercenary group.
Carrido has been in Gwinter Forest recently. His job is a magic officer. At present, he is mainly the middleman between Link and businessman White, responsible for giving White the magic equipment created by White. And settle the payment, so most of the time, he was not in the territory, but he just returned today.
He saluted Link, and then handed over a space bracelet: "Lord, this is the income this time."
Linke glanced at about fifteen thousand gold coins. It was a huge sum of money. I was happy in my heart. After thinking about it, I returned this space bracelet to Carrido: "You take this Go to East Valley, find Master Voss Minglun, and order a large ploughing puppet. "
Master Vosminglund is best at making all kinds of magic puppets, commonly known as puppets. This is reflected in his notebook, so Link needs the puppets and thinks of him.
Carrido froze and didn't understand: "Plowing the puppet?"
Linke explained: "Yes, I have seen the land in the territory. The gravel layer does not exceed half a meter. Below is the soil for planting crops. As long as the soil is turned up, the territory can grow crops.
In other places, the surface layer is mud, and the lower layer is stone, but the Field Wilderness is just the opposite. This is also a great wonder of this Wilderness. One reason for this deep plowing of the puppets was to dig out the soil, and the second reason was that Link was ready to mine anti-magic clay.
Carrid understands this time and nods: "I'll do it now."
"Not in a hurry, rest for a few days." Link waved his hand, and then handed Carrido a magic book called Breath of the Wind: "This book should help you, you Study carefully. "
Carrido's grateful expression appeared on his face. He respectfully took the magic book and put it away carefully.
Linke ’s recommended magic book is not simple. He has read five books now, and his understanding of magic is completely different from the past. He is now a semi-academic magician and is no longer the wild way he used to be. Already.
Then they discussed the matter for a while, and then Link was ready to arrange a place for Celine.
Lucy's sidewalk: "The camp huts are full. Sister Celine should live with me these days, and wait a few days for the new huts to be built before moving in."
Linke thinks that's good, looks at Celine, and Celine nods, so she can look into this Lucy's mind.
After that, nothing will happen, Link will leave the conference hall, ready to go back to the house to build a few magic equipment, and Waynes' old wand must be prepared. Changing the climate is imminent. As soon as possible.
When I walked out of the house, I saw Doras under a large canopy, holding a large piece of roasted meat with interest, to see what he looked like. There was a piece of **** raw beef, but he didn't even look at it.
Well, this savage kid has been conquered by the chef's barbecue skills. (To be continued.)
