The war is coming

It was another sunny day, and Li Ya woke up in bed, thinking about the embarrassment of falling into the water yesterday. It's careless, I'm too excited to release magic for the first time, and I'm going to practice my magic control ability well in the future.

Fortunately, I can swim, if I can't swim, I may be the first magician to be drowned by myself, and I can be written into the textbook as a negative textbook.

The door was pushed open. The baron walked in, a sly smile on his face.

"I heard that you fell into the water yesterday and came back soaking wet. ”

"It's just a little mistake. ”

"I almost drowned in my own magic, and sure enough, it's my son, and it's so special to put a spell. ”

"Father, if it's okay, I'm going to meditate."

The baron probably couldn't hold back his laughter and laughed out loud until Li Ya's face became extremely ugly, and the baron suppressed his laughter and said. "You are also an Awakened now, and you will inherit the territory in the future. Get up, I'll take you on a good patrol of Sunshine City. As a lord, you must know everything in your territory. ”

Wait for Li Ya to wash up and have breakfast. The baron led Lea, followed by the baron's henchmen.

"By the way, let's arrange a follower for you in the future, although the population of the island is not large, there are also many things to deal with, if you don't have a follower, you can't be busy at all. ”

"Can I choose for myself? ”

"Yes. The baron agreed.

The baron took Li Ya all the way and chatted, it seemed that he was really cultivating Li Ya, and the baron said a lot of things that Li Ya didn't know before.

First, I went along the path to see the fruit grove area. The fruit grove area is mainly planted with a kind of fruit trees called bread trees, each one is seven or eight meters up and down, the canopy of the bread tree is large, it seems to be a specially cultivated fruit tree, you can see dense ripe or semi-ripe fruit hanging on the branches. Bread trees bear fruit all year round. The fruit can be eaten raw, but it tastes better when roasted, and the average civilian rarely makes a fire, and most of the people on the island choose to eat it raw. There are about 200 bread trees in the orchard, which are the main source of food on the island. The orchard is guarded by a special militia to prevent seabirds or others from damaging the orchard.

After that comes the timber area. It is all wood, a type of wood that is mainly used for construction, and the wood is very hard, and most of the houses on the island are built of wood. In addition, the wood is very resistant to burning, and the wood used for the daily fire in the castle comes from this wood.

Then there's a large area of cactus. Yes, cacti, and this area is very critical. These cacti are very tall and drought-tolerant, but they also store water very well. The baron took a knife and made a small cut in a random cactus. Suddenly, a large amount of clear juice gushed out. Li Ya tasted it, and the taste was a little sweet, this is a very important fresh water storage on the island, which can save lives when necessary.

In the end, the baron took Lea to the highest point on the island, and the Gaia Giant Tree, which also had a fruit on it, a fruit similar to an apple, large and small, the small one was about the size of a peach, but it was just such a small fruit, enough for an adult not to feel hungry for a day. There are also some larger fruits, which are not eaten by the average person. This fruit contains a lot of magic power, and ordinary people cannot absorb it, and they will be poisoned by magic after eating it.

But this fruit is the biggest wealth of Sunshine City, although ordinary people can't absorb magic power, but knights can absorb this magic power, knights' cultivation methods are different from magicians, knights strengthen their bodies by absorbing magic power through their bodies, so fruits containing magic power are very suitable for knights to absorb magic power sources. For example, the baron, who has grown to the level of a high-level knight in just a few decades after awakening, relies on the giant tree fruit, and the great nobles have been buying the giant tree fruit at a high price.

The great nobles had larger territories and larger families, and often the families could have several knights. Therefore, the demand for fruits is extremely huge, and in a small city like Sunshine City, only the lord is an extraordinary person, and there is no local natural awakener. Often, in addition to personal use, the remaining fruit is sold. For example, Sunshine City exchanges with Holy Light City every year through the Giant Tree Fruit for a large number of materials that Sunshine City cannot produce.

Moreover, large families often absorb natural awakened people to form the family's extraordinary power guard. At this time, the fruit has a great allure. If there is no magic fruit, the knight can only reach the level of an intermediate knight at most, and the talent is almost even a junior knight for a lifetime.

Now the baron still needs some fruits to improve his strength, but Li Ya is a magician and doesn't need fruits at all. After Li Ya takes over Sunshine City, Sunshine City will inevitably be able to exchange more materials than it is now, and Sunshine City will definitely be better in Li Ya's hands, the baron thought.

"Do you know why when you were young, I didn't let you and Li Dong climb this giant tree of Gaia?"

"It's about the fruit being poisonous to us."

"Not bad. In the future, you have to learn more about managing the territory, and you need to learn a lot of things to manage the territory, and it is not so simple to be a qualified lord."

"In addition, in the future, practice more rain seeking techniques, this spell is very important. It can make the territory develop better, and then you can take in more people, and if the population goes up, there will be natural awakeners. With the Natural Awakened, the power of the family can also be taken to the next level. ”

"Father, I will definitely study hard"

"If you don't understand, you can ask Barov the butler, who has been a butler in the castle for more than forty years. A lot of things are clear, and if Barov doesn't understand it, you can go to the library and have a look at it, which has the experience accumulated by the family for generations."

"Father, don't you teach me personally?"

"Am I not teaching you now, but it may not be possible after a while. ”

"What's wrong? Is there something big going on in the kingdom?"

"His Majesty has always wanted to gather the forces of the whole continent, and recently the alliance negotiations have failed, and His Majesty may unify all of Gaia's city-states through war. ”

"Father is going to war. ”

"It's definitely going to go, it's the duty of the nobility. But it will take some time, you can cultivate well during this time, and when I am not there, the territory needs your management. ”

In the days that followed, Li Ya became familiar with the operation of the territory while exercising his magic control ability. There is no difficulty in asking for rain, just activate the runes and make it rain. The tsunami spell can't be cast because the magic is not enough. Therefore, the main cultivation is the Giant Wave Technique.

Through this period of practice, Li Ya discovered that the Great Wave Technique is not simply a wave to knock over the opponent, and when the runes are controlled, this state is maintained. You can control the direction of the wave, just like a flexible hand, and then release it when it touches the target, and you can shoot the target directly. It feels like the palm of your hand, and you can control it to shoot around at will. And the power of the waves is very great. You can shoot a stone more than one person high more than ten meters away. The speed of the waves is also quite fast, compared to the speed of normal people's 100-meter sprint, only fast and not slow. Li Ya felt that this spell was quite strong.

"Looks like you've pretty much mastered the Great Wave Technique. The baron's voice came from behind him.

"Okay, do you want to try it. ”

"Yo, it's itchy, isn't it?"

As he spoke, Li Ya unleashed a giant wave technique to attack the baron, and the giant wave quickly called out to the baron like a giant's palm. However, the baron didn't even look at the giant wave, and when the giant wave ran to the point where it was less than half a meter away from the baron, the baron smiled slightly.

In an instant, the baron appeared behind Li Ya, Li Ya only felt that his whole body was tight, and he was lifted up, and then there was a whirlwind, but fortunately, the baron threw it at the tree. But just like that, Li Ya was also stunned.

"Don't you dare. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. ”

"The attack power of the giant wave is indeed very strong, but the speed is too slow for a high-level knight, and you can't catch any mid-level knight. Even a junior knight can dodge it with a little training, and in this world, when an individual fights, a knight is still stronger than a magician. Although the magic of the magician is good, the speed of the magic is too slow, and without the premise of level suppression, you must not go head-to-head with the knight. ”

"Li Ya is now dizzy, and he has no strength to refute the baron. And I just been educated, and I don't have the confidence to refute it."

A few days after the peaceful days, a large ship appeared near Sunshine City, with a pattern of wings and light hanging from the ship. It is the emblem of the Gabriel family in the City of Light. The servant hastened to inform the baron.

By the time the ship docked in Sunshine City, the baron was already waiting on the shore.

A group of men and horses stepped out of the boat, led by a young man, about two meters tall, apparently also a knight. The blonde hair obviously has no intention of being taken care of, and it is directly cut into an inch board, and he is wearing a black tight wallet, which looks very capable.

"Now, Reed Gabriel, captain of the Guardians of the City of Light, there is an order from the Viscount to convey to the Baron."

"I'm tired all the way, let's go to the castle study and talk"

In the castle's study, Reed Gabriel took out a paper and handed it to the baron.

"This is a document signed by Lord Viscount, and I hope that Lord Baron will immediately organize people to go to Holy Light City to meet Lord Viscount. ”

"In such a hurry, is there something wrong?"

"It is said that it is Your Majesty's intention, and Your Majesty hopes to achieve certain results before other countries react, so the lords of the whole country are speeding up the gathering of warriors. ”

"No problem, you can leave tomorrow, please rest in the castle for the night, and when the warriors are assembled tomorrow, I will go to the Holy Light City with you." The baron said after reading the papers.

The butler left the study with Reed, and the baron looked at Lea and said.

"Confirm that there is going to be a war, and I will take thirty men. After I'm gone, Sunshine City will rely on you. ”
