Immediately after, a small number of leaves shot out from the magic circle, and they flew in the air in a spiral motion in the direction of Cross.

Cross raised the Orb of Spellbreaker and calmly responded.

I saw that the leaves of the tree instantly turned into pale green crystal powder when they touched the orb, and these crystal powders were absorbed by Cross's hands.

These pale green crystals are magical.

Seeing this, Link immediately stopped casting spells and said in surprise, "Are you a Demon Drinker!?" and then he started to shake his head again, "No! Demon Drinkers need magic to absorb magic power...... Don't...... You are a human born with a demon-drinking physique!"

Seeing the stunned Link, Cross said lightly, "Maybe, I may be a natural demon drinker." ”

"Born ...... The Demon Drinker......" Link's eyes widened and he looked at Cross in disbelief. He was clearly frightened by this peculiar and exaggerated ability of Cross.

Cross's ability is no longer something that can be described by a simple demon drinker, if you want to understand it in a more precise and shocking word, the Hunter will definitely be more eye-catching.

In Link's opinion, Cross's ability combined with the Spellbreaker Orb can easily subdue most wizards and mages, and there is no problem at all in calling him a Spell Hunter.

Looking at the surprised Link, Cross only said one sentence, "You know now, that's the real reason why I want to know about magic and magic." ”

And this sentence made Link even more confused.

However, for Link, none of this is important, the important thing is that this life-saving benefactor Cross is an extremely powerful existence, as long as he follows Cross, Link can easily and happily play in nature, and it is too comfortable to have such a hunter by his side.

But Clos's next words completely disappointed the joyful Link.

"Link, you said you could make plants grow quickly, and I need your help right away. ”

"Ah......" Link looked dazed.

"Humans are not like elves, we will die if we don't eat food, your magic can make food ripen quickly, and we can have enough food. ”

"Oh......" Link nodded as if he didn't understand, "I think my magic still has this effect, so I think it's true." ”

"Link, you will be responsible for the food production in Copper Mountain Town in the future. ”

Link exhaled lightly, "Okay......"

Now Link didn't dare to disobey Cross's orders at all, especially after he saw Cross's terrifying abilities.

"But you have to stay invisible. ”

"Good. But...... Sir Cross, you can't drive me away, although the elves have magical powers, they are too small in size, and there are too many things that can threaten us......"

Link took this opportunity to express his desire to stay by Close's side all the time, he didn't have this idea at first, after all, he just saw Cross as an ordinary human, but when Cross showed his extraordinary special abilities, he realized that being around this human was the best choice.

"As long as you listen to me, I won't drive you away. "For Cross, although the magic provided by Link is very small, it is already very good in this world where magic is scarce. Moreover, this wood goblin has other uses.

"Hehe, how dare I not listen to your Excellency?"

After Link, he flapped his wings and flew onto Cross's head.

Cross began to change his clothes, and the ragged clothes really couldn't be worn anymore.

......

The construction of the granary is proceeding in an orderly manner under Wendy's leadership and command, and the construction of other aspects of Copperhill must also begin.

Cross summoned Wendy and Ulala to discuss and set a rough layout for the initial construction of Copperhill Town.

From north to south, Tina's laboratory, the blacksmiths' shop, and then the main road.

On the west side of the main road are granaries and other warehouses and barracks, and on the east side are farmland, chicken farms, and residential houses.

The original area of Copper Mountain also needs to be renovated and rebuilt.

All buildings must meet two criteria, the first is safety, and the second is to save land area.

The discussion didn't last long, and soon after, Cross began to register the new recruits one by one, and then assigned the various tasks.

First up are the little Hubfel, who are tasked with setting up a chicken farm and then loosening the dirt on the wasteland with their powerful legs.

As for the slaves bought from Sunset City, the men followed Cross to cut down trees in the forest, while Wendy arranged for the women.

......

At the end of the day's work, Cross was not satisfied with the results, although the most basic skill of cutting trees was not difficult for the slaves, they were not highly motivated, and they liked to be lazy.

Because of this, at the end of the day, only 13 cedar trees were cut down, that is, only 13 thick and long trunks.

Three of them were cut down by Cross within an hour, after which he stopped doing it himself and began to direct the chaotic crowd.

39 men, only doing such a small thing in a whole day, this is incomprehensible to Cross. If these people were in a military academy, they would definitely be severely punished by their mentors.

However, in addition to seeing that these people were very poorly motivated, Cross also saw other problems, that is, he himself was too anxious, and the general construction layout was only formulated, and he began to rush the people who had just arrived in Tongshan Town to work, and even, these people didn't know what the purpose of cutting trees and trees was, which was obviously not good.

They can not know the truth, but they need some reason, some reason to do things.

However, they were once slaves, and they have become accustomed to the slave way of life and doing things, and whenever there is an order, they will do it. But it doesn't have to be hard.

It's not that easy to change the way slaves think, and it's a problem that Cross has to solve as soon as possible.

On the way back, Cross had been thinking about these things.

"Lord Cross, you're back!"

As soon as Cross came out of the forest, Tina staggered over to her, shouting.

"I came back yesterday. ”

"I know, Wendy has already told me. ”

"How's your lab?"

"It's going to take a few days to finish. ”

"Soon. ”

"Of course, I'm the genius alchemist Tina!"

Tina's condition was much better than expected, and she was clearly recovering well after the spell was lifted.

"By the way, Lord Cross, when will Nia return?"

"I don't know, but it won't be long. ”

"I've been praying for them for the past few days. ”
