Chapter 47: The Maid √ the Guard×
Cross temporarily arranged for Gawain and Lancelot to conduct a simple reconnaissance job, and the two of them became temporary scouts for Coppermountain. In addition to allowing Copperhill Town to have a certain amount of basic reconnaissance power, he is also exercising Lancelot.
As for Gawain, Cross just hopes that he can adapt to life in Copperhill as soon as possible, after all, this remote and barren town is too far from the environment in which Gawain used to live.
On the other hand, Wendy has already drawn the artwork of the granary and is directing the civilians to enter the granary. The granary is located in the northern direction outside of Copper Mountain, which is the first step in Cross's preparation to expand the town of Copper Mountain.
Randall chose his alchemy laboratory in the mountains southeast of Copper Mountain. Cross was pleased with his decision, he had been worried that the path of the mountain might become a secret passage for the enemy to infiltrate Coppermountain, and now he had no such concerns.
Randall's alchemy lab was the equivalent of an outpost, and, with the disgusting smell, the enemy would no longer advance through that mountain road.
It's just that Randall's laboratory is not easy to build, and he will definitely not be able to open up the mountain and split the road alone, and Cross promised him that he would find someone to help him when the time comes.
As for Tina's lab, Cross had already made a decision for her, and he was going to let Tina dig the pit at the fork in the road, so that there would be a barrier on the road to Copperhill.
Of course, their lab was just a place to conduct experiments, and Cross would build his own house for them in Copperhill in the future, and he didn't want the two of them to be the same as they had been in Creek Town, just treating the lab as their own.
Cross himself was not idle, he chose an area suitable for growing food based on his knowledge of geography and some of Wendy's teachings.
This area is close to the mountains to the southeast, and to the northeast outside of Tongshan Town, once this area is developed into fertile land, the road to Tongshan Town will be much narrower.
This was Close's first plan, and he was going to expand the town of Copper Mountain directly along the highway to the fork in the road.
However, the fields need to be cultivated, but the population of Tongshan Town is too small, so he can only wait for the granary to be built before the fields are cultivated, and as for the subsequent planting, he is still ready to hand it over to Wendy.
After Cross explained the matter to a few people, he prepared to set off for Sunset City, and Copperhill Town was temporarily managed by Wendy.
However, he was not alone, and at the moment, he was waiting for Nia in front of Wendy's house.
"Lord Cross, please wait a moment. This was the fifth time that Nia had said this, and she didn't want Cross to wait impatiently, so she had to say it over and over again.
Nia was wearing the maid's dress, and Tina was helping with trimming. Since Wendy said that it would be more perfect to wear it directly and trim it, Nia finally made such a decision.
It's just that Tina is not Wendy after all, she doesn't trim clothes, she only trims metal. Fortunately, Tina was very patient, and it took a whole morning to finally trim the maid's dress.
When Nia opened the door and appeared in front of Cross, the latter was also attracted by Nia's outfit.
The maid's long skirt, which was originally ankle-length, has been trimmed above the knees, and even part of the thighs are exposed. As for the long sleeves, they were cut off directly and became sleeveless.
Of course, for the sake of beauty, Tina made a piping circle where she cut it, which is where she spent her time, and she also made a lovely headdress out of the cut fabric, so that Nia didn't even have to wear a headscarf.
Nia, who was staring at by Cross, turned her head shyly.
"Hehe, Lord Cross, I'm pretty good. If Nia's hair had grown a little longer, I would have tied her in a double ponytail!" said Tina, who suddenly poked her head out behind her. She also has some cut scrap in her hands, which is supposed to be a garbage collection in the house.
"Yes, even more lovely than last night. ”
"Last night?" Tina curiously turned her head closer to Nia, who blushed inexplicably. Nia blushed not because of Tina's approach, but because she was praised by Cross for her cuteness.
"So you went to see Lord Cross last night, so no wonder you were so happy when you came back. ”
"I'm happy now. ”
"I can't see it, let me touch my heartbeat. With that, Tina's right hand touched Nia's left breast.
"Tina, don't make a fuss. ”
......
Close and Nia rode out of Copperhill, and before leaving, Cross borrowed the greatsword he used from Reiner, and without this weapon representing Reiner, the lords and nobles of Sunset City would not have met Cross at all.
The reason why Cross is going to Sunset City is not only to tell Copperhill about the attack by the Goblin Army, but also to find out where Reiner lives and visit his family by the way, he doesn't want to let Reiner go back to Sunset City so easily.
Of course, in addition to these, it is impossible to keep Reiner, and he needs to use some methods.
However, keeping Reiner wasn't the real purpose of Cross's trip to Sunset City.
