Chapter 573: The Promised Land (8)
From the time she first came to the monastery, Barka had always been on her radar, without it, she was the daughter of the princess of her homeland, and it was not until the great change half a year ago that Barka finally had a chance to get close to her.
At first, he always saw her with a gentle and distant smile, and later, as they became acquainted, he felt that she was a moody person, not as gentle as she seemed...... If you're interested in something, you'll be desperate to get into it, but it's easy to lose interest again.
She's smart and decisive, but she's indecisive at times — she's too focused on her reputation to kill those who threaten her.
Barka didn't know if such a character was good or bad, but at least she wasn't mediocre, and maybe she could really give them a place to live.
The roar of the machine forced him to retract his wandering thoughts, and in front of him was the delicate little face with shaggy pale pink hair, and Barka glanced at Sharia standing beside him, and she was also thinking.
"As for the reward, you can think about it slowly. ”
Loria watched as the massive converted tank in the distance toppled down trees, and the warriors who followed it worked the timber on the spot with axes and saws, preparing to build several watchtowers and huts in the southern part of the island as a base from which to explore the mysterious island...... The island is mild and full of vegetation, but until more precious resources are discovered, it is still far less valuable than the rich snowmans of the other world, and it is not worth investing too much manpower and material resources in it, but it is too much a pity to use it as a prison for two people.
Loria hadn't figured out what she could do with the mist-clad island, but that didn't stop her from rewarding the island's two discoverers, and she generously rewarded it...... Let them choose their own rewards.
Of course, if they asked her for Elyse, she would have turned her face...... It's okay to be considered by the United States, but anyway, he's just a stupid guy who just eats and doesn't work.
"Miss......" Sharia seemed to have thought about it, she lowered her head so that she could almost lose her face, and said slowly and hesitantly, "I hope you can give me a small piece of land that can be cultivated...... In the snow. ”
"Of course, no problem. Without thinking about it, Loria agreed to Sharia's request, and she made arrangements after recalling her estate, "When I get back, I will have the Annenberg estate handed over to you, which is about four or five hectares in the most fertile land to the south of the snowy man." ”
Sharia bowed in gratitude, and she was rewarded more generously than she had expected.
Barka looked sideways, the tavery lady with whom he had spent some time on an adventure clearly had a clear plan for the future, and most of the Crusaders had a mad obsession with the land that would give birth to life, but she seemed to be thinking a little further.
She can rent her land to farmers for a profit, and when she retires (if one day, she can build a cottage on her farm and spend the rest of her life leisurely).
Barka was still planning Sharia's future, and when he noticed Loria staring at him, he quickly withdrew his thoughts, and realized that he had never thought about what he wanted.
Would you like to embark on the road to recovery?
Her majesty is increasing day by day, so don't point fingers.
Ask for a piece of land like Sharia?
It's kind of exciting to think about, but he's still young, so he shouldn't stop there...... The sound of falling trees kept coming, and the ghost of Barka made his strange request: "Give me the woodland on the northwest side of this island, and order that no one should come near it...... I will keep the secrets of the woodland for you. ”
Barka realized that the red eyes were staring at him.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure. ”
"Well, since it's your choice. ”
He chose his own path and became a jailer ever since, forever guarding and being kept secret in the deserted forest.
……
The watchtower and camp seemed to be completed in an instant, led by a few of Loria's most trusted red-eyed officers, and the search party traveled every inch of the island day by day, and the island was as beautiful and peaceful as paradise as no one knew the exact location, with food and fresh water at its fingertips, forests and patches of unknown wildflowers.
However, nothing more than some low-quality copper deposits that have no mining value, prospecting experts have found nothing...... The expedition finally crossed the strange rift that split the island in two, reached what they called the North Island, and as the terrain grew, they found some tin ore in a valley...... Compared to Xueman, which is so rich that it seems that you can dig metal ore with a random hoe, it still has no practical value, and at most it can allow those novice miners to practice a little.
The map was getting better day by day, and now, Loria in Tirisfara knew that it was a gourd-shaped island high in the north and low in the south, and that the rift was right in the narrowest part of the middle...... It may have some secrets, but it's impossible to know, but there's something interesting on the northernmost hill.
The expedition team discovered the owner of the island...... A group of intelligent beings...... Of course, the Crusaders will not admit it, neither the master nor the wise.
It's not a rare breed, it's just some bear monsters, and apart from the fact that it was once connected to the mainland, the crusaders didn't care about these creatures that had been degraded by living in the peach orchard for a long time...... They split into three tribes that were at odds with each other, one of whom had tried to sneak up on the Crusaders' expedition, but was repelled by Mills, who was alone outside the camp at night to work on his abs.
For a long time, the bears did not dare to leave the mountains where they had lived for generations.
It's hard to dig out more hidden value on this secluded island, because without saying goodbye, it's hard for mages who haven't mastered all of her portal techniques to build a low-cost and stable magical device like a portal to the sky, and even if they grow crops here, the cost of bringing them back to the monastery will far exceed the cost of the crops themselves.
It was left behind, except for Loria's occasional teleportation to fish, and the only place was inhabited by Balka, who guarded a certain forest, and the watchtower and hut were gradually deserted, and the island returned to its original form...... Wild and peaceful.
……
The number of adventurers who tried to slip past was becoming scarcer, and the undead on the eastern shore of the lake were cleaned, leaving the Crusader recruits to venture deep into the south in search of someone to exercise in, and occasionally, they would encounter a powerful, richly dressed adventurer with a few ragged companions hurrying away.
