Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 22:
Walking around in the huge underground, enjoying the exotic landscape, the tour group left with satisfaction-oh, there is one left, lying on the pile of gold coins, slumbering, while sleeping One side is still talking in sleep.
Sui Xiong leaned forward curiously. He heard the dragon's voice echoed in the back of his throat. After using the ability to understand the language, he realized that he was muttering: "Gold coins, gold coins, bedding, bedding... sleep... "
"This girl is not saved!" He shook his head, and used an enchantment to expand the hail's dragon power to avoid the surrounding monsters from approaching and affecting her to sleep. It also allows those who will explore later to discover her existence early, so that they won't be confused and bump her mouth.
Although Hao has never eaten people in the past, who can tell when he is sleepy? And even if she doesn't eat people, what if she is awakened, and she wakes up, and a petrified dragon's breath comes out, what should I do?
With Hao's age and strength, her petrified dragon's breath strength is not high, basically a qualified adventurer should be able to withstand it. But it was just a group of ordinary people who came to explore this maze!
Set up the barrier, Sui Xiong thought for a while, and put a sign on the edge of the barrier with the words "No one can enter, there are bulldogs", and he flew away contentedly.
As for whether the explorers could understand simplified Chinese characters, he directly ignored them.
The underground labyrinth is almost finished. Next comes the passage to the ground and the construction of the playground on the ground.
Luo Luoben wanted the pioneers to help, but Sui Xiong refused his suggestion.
"It's fun." He said, "I tell you, construction...really fun!"
Rhodes really didn’t understand the fun of doing coolies, but after another thought, Masquerade Void was able to build such a big maze underground with great interest. Maybe his old man likes to play with bricks and mud. what.
So he understood.
From the playground on the ground to the labyrinth underground, Sui Xiong arranged three passages.
One is the main entrance, which is wide and large, connecting the ground and the underground with a very high and extremely long staircase. The steps circled back and forth, stretching for hundreds of meters, and there was a hall every ten meters. He planned to arrange various auxiliary facilities in the future, such as pubs, restaurants, training grounds, lounges, etc. The library...wait, wait.
Although there will be such facilities on the ground, the styles on the ground and the underground are completely different and can be used to create an atmosphere of "exotic culture".
The second passage is a huge deep well, which is large enough to accommodate three people in parallel. The spiral staircase goes all the way down. There is a column in the center for fast sliding. This is for those who are challenging and want to To go to an area where you might encounter hail, you must go down here.
The last passage is an extremely long **** that extends far away. It is not usually used, but only as a backup at critical moments.
Of course, in addition to these normal passages, there are also two transfer rooms. The huge fixed transfer array can send users to the transfer point in the rest area of the maze or transfer them back from there.
Not only that, when they encounter great danger, the magic pre-arranged on them will take effect, and they will be sent back to the teleportation room immediately to avoid accidents.
To ensure safety, there is a small shrine next to the transfer room that can provide first aid services. If any unlucky ghost unfortunately scares out myocardial infarction or cerebral hemorrhage and dies in the maze, the temple can also provide him with resurrection services.
...Of course, this is for money.
The arrangement of the three passages and the transmission room took Sui Xiong a lot of time. It was not until midsummer that he had time to start building a playground.
At this time, the believers of the Void Masked Church have been escorted by Gerrard and have successively arrived in this town that is scheduled to be built into a holy land.
Because the negative energy from underground has been cut off, and the ground has been purified by Sui Xiong's spellcasting, this forest doesn't feel a bit gloomy at this moment. The dark brown soil is covered by thick weeds, and both tall trees and low weeds reveal the emerald green that should not have appeared in the ash forest. There is also a small clear river that passes through this forest. The river does not smell like unpleasant rust like it is usually polluted. Instead, it contains a fragrant green grass fragrance.
At some point, many birds and beasts also came here. They keenly discovered this pure land, built nests here, and thrived. Every morning, everyone wakes up to the sounds of birds, and sleeps with the deer at night.
Even if there is no hunting ban specifically issued by Sui Xiong, the pioneers are unwilling to hurt these lovely creatures. They affectionately called these birds and beasts "neighbors," and they also petitioned Mrs. Liv, the pioneer of the land, asking whether they could adjust the layout of the city to leave enough space for the birds and beasts to survive.
Liv, who was transferred from the patrol team captain to the pioneer leader from Gals City to the Ash Forest with a teleportation array, happily approved this request.
She thought that she would come to a place where there is no mountain and bad water, and be with rude adventurers and dirty laborers, busy fighting all kinds of dangerous monsters all day long. But I didn't expect it to be a beautiful forest.
Oh, "Shuixiu" is right. "Mountain green" seems wrong. The nearest mountain is hundreds of miles away. The sky is gray and the ground is black. Even the leaves of the trees are there. A layer of black air.
The notoriety of the Ash Forest has long been heard by her even from the far side of the mainland. It's just that she couldn't think of what method Majesty Masked Void used to open up such a pure land in this terrifying black forest?
However, she did not go to the playground construction site to ask Sui Xiong, who was busy playing the live-action version of "My World" in another world all day long, but kept this question in her heart and concentrated on her work.
His Majesty the Void Mask sent envoys to help them when they were most difficult. And her teacher is also a believer of His Majesty-it is said that she is still the chief priest, which is really strange, why is it not the chief of the knight but the chief priest? The teacher doesn’t look like a priest at all...
Combining various factors, she feels that this deity can be trusted, and she should complete the tasks assigned by him.
This is not only a reward for Majesty the Void Mask, but also a reward for the teacher, and it is also a great opportunity to realize the value of oneself in life and not to humiliate my father's lifelong learning!
She can remember that her father occasionally sighed in melancholy in private, lamenting that she had learned a lot of skills in governing the country and managing the people, but she had no chance to practice it. Whenever he taught his daughter alone, he would sigh from time to time.
Now, it is time to practice the things taught by my father to see if they are right or not, and to prove whether my father has the ability to be a good lord.
Of course, she absolutely believes in her father!
Facts have proved that the knowledge that Paen Knight taught his daughter is indeed very useful. Even though the manpower she had to manage this time was much more than that of the previous Gals Patrol, and the quality was also uneven, she quickly entered the state and maintained the order of the entire territory well.
Every morning, she will take a few soldiers to patrol the entire territory, listen to the opinions of the pioneers, and collect the problems found. After lunch, she will set out to solve the problems one by one, and in the evening, she will go to Frost, who is responsible for managing logistics, to check supplies to ensure a stable supply of the entire territory.
It was her suggestion to let Shuang visit the warehouse. At that time, Shuang looked very dissatisfied, and even threatened her by showing the real body of the dragon. But Liv exploded with amazing courage and did not give in to the dragon's sharp teeth. In the end, Shuang did not dare to really kill her in one bite, so she had to become the treasurer unwillingly.
But this job is indeed very suitable for him. This stinky teenager has an expression of "You owe me money, pay me back" to everyone, plus the faint dragon power that exudes from him. As a result, the pioneers did not dare to play tricks with him at all, even the most cunning old fritters did not dare to try to take advantage of the dragon.
They don't have the strong nerves of Ms. Liv. They dare to stare at the angry dragon with big eyes. It's better not to die!
Mrs. Teague is responsible for the management of agriculture. Together with a druid "Nan" who has already said that she is only a part-time job, she uses wizard spells and natural magic to help farmers clear the land and plant crops.
Because the soil here has been well purified, what they grow is not the slow-growing "Golden Vine~IndoMTL.com~" but some tubers, grains, and vegetables.
The soil in the Ash Forest is very fertile, and these crops are growing very well. It was midsummer at this moment. Even if the town was in the north, the temperature was still warm. The seeds were planted in the soil, and with the effects of spells, they took root in a day or two, and after only half a month, it was thriving.
"But the winter here will be very cold." Nan, the strangely named druid said, "I am worried that these plants will not survive the cold winter."
"Don't worry, the gods who rule here can freely manipulate the cold. At that time, he will absorb the surrounding cold and keep the area warm enough." Mrs. Teague, who has already communicated with Gerrard, has learned of these messages. Say, "If you are interested, you can stay for a while and see for yourself."
Nan shook his head: "Although it is for good intentions, this kind of behavior against nature is still contrary to our druids' beliefs. I'd better not stay."
He is a very stubborn person, and he does what he says. In the autumn of that year, after the harvest of the crops, he helped the farmers complete the harvest, insisting that "the contract is over" and leaving.
The autumn in the Northland passed very quickly, and it felt like it was just a blink of an eye, and the first snow had already fallen.
The winter in the Ash Forest, as always, has come early...
