280th river network
"If you really don't want to go, you will stop paying half a year's salary as compensation for those who sacrificed!" Malone suggested that he couldn't really deal with Harvey for this little thing. [with _ dream]ā
"Yes!" He nodded in response.
The meeting was almost over.
Then it was to rebuild the destroyed places and provide bereavement to the families of the knights who died in battle.
When they die in battle, their families not only have a generous pension, but if they have offspring, they can also be supported until they reach adulthood.
It can be said that there is no worries!
It looks like Malone spent more money, but he thinks it's worth it.
This is how the people's sense of identity with the territory is built little by little.
In the future, when Marlon needs it, they will also fight for the honor of the lord!
"Your Lord!" Bob, the engineer, entered the door and saluted.
Since Malone was not personally involved in the construction of the territory, he was in charge of related matters.
"What's the matter?"
"It's about reconstruction!"
"What's wrong?"
Ma Long was a little puzzled, although Bob is not yet a master, he has also dealt with many big projects over the years, and it can be said that he is infinitely close.
A small recovery and reconstruction is not just because it should be difficult.
"It's Jewel Lake." He was a little embarrassed, "That octopus monster doesn't know where to get through the underground river, now the amount of water is amazing, and many places outside the city have been flooded, if you don't deal with it......"
"Is there such a thing?" Malone got up from the chair and said, "Let's go, take a look." ”
Immediately recruited the red rabbit, and after a while, they arrived at the gem lake.
Sure enough, as Bob said, it was already flooded, and large fields were submerged.
If it weren't for the temporary accumulation of debris at the break in the city wall, I am afraid that it would have flooded into the city.
The important thing is that you can still see a stream of water in the center of the lake, going upstream, looking at the movement, not very small.
"Is there any way to do it?"
Marlon thought about whether to just let the octopus block it and let it move when there was a shortage of water.
"Malone." Someone behind him greeted him, it was a female voice.
He could tell that it was his cousin Haiwen, who was also the consul of Black Rock City.
Turning his head, Malone asked, "Why are you here?" ”
The other party is supposed to be appeasing the citizens, so he still has time to come here at this time?
She tilted her chin and nodded, gestured to the farmland outside, and said, "Someone came to the city hall and said that the land was gone, and I came to see the situation, but I didn't expect it to be so bad." ”
"Any ideas?"
"Open the river to lead it away, or block it!"
Malone turned to Bob again, "What do you think?" ”
"It's better to be blocked, I think it's better to lead away." He looked at Haiwen and hesitated, "That's it...... I'm afraid it will take a lot of manpower, and it will take ......"
"I don't have any idlers here." Before he could finish speaking, Haiwen interrupted: "Why don't you try that big octopus, maybe you can let it help." ”
"That's a good idea." Malone smiled, and turned to look at Bob again, "Do you dare to use it?" ”
"This ......," he hesitated, and although he had never seen it, it was terrifying to describe.
To direct it to help open the river, Bob felt a little weak in his heart, and he was panicked!
"Don't worry." Ma Long looked at him and knew that he was worried about safety, so he comforted: "You can control it absolutely." ”
"Good!" He gritted his teeth vigorously and agreed.
"That's ......" Ma Long pondered, looking at the water outside the city wall, "It's like this anyway, and there's no hurry, you can plan well and reorganize the entire territorial water network."
"Where there is a shortage of water, and where there is too much water, let's do it thoroughly."
"This ...... The amount of work is too large, and even with the help of a big octopus, it will take at least several years. Bob was surprised.
"How long will it take?"
"This ...... I won't be able to come up with exact data for a while, but five years should be fine. ”
"Okay!" Malone nodded, "You go for it, I'll let the big octopus cooperate with you." Start from the vicinity of Black Rock City, first get the place south of the Grand Canyon, and then get the north of Xinjiang.
"After this is done, you should also be promoted to a master, and then there should be one of the nobles."
"Yes!" Bob was completely excited.
Dredging the river network is a major project that no one has ever set foot on.
Now that Blackstone is blessed with a big octopus to help, he is confident that he will complete it.
Becoming a master has been a dream since childhood.
There is also the noble title of the Black Stone Collar, which does not seem to be much in the eyes of those who do not know.
Not only is there no territory, but the rights of ordinary nobles are quite restricted.
At least killing an ordinary person here for no reason is definitely a felony.
This kind of harshness, nowhere else.
So Malone had a high reputation among the commoners, but he was not likable among the nobility.
But only real insiders know how rare the Blackstone Rank nobles are.
Not to mention anything else, just participating in the operation and sales of various new products in the territory is enough to make people rich.
There are also some special things that ordinary people can't get, which money can't buy......
After the big octopus incident, the black stone collar suddenly became lively!
It's not that it's not lively originally, but a common topic has suddenly been added - the big octopus
The whole city is inundated with the topic of octopus.
Many people swore that they had seen a huge octopus monster of hundreds of meters, and with a wave of their tentacles, the walls of their houses collapsed.
As soon as you stomp your foot, the earth shook three times.
As for octopuses with legs?
That's a Warcraft, can it be the same as a normal octopus?
Unbelief?
Isn't the wall being repaired over there proof of this?
As for where it went?
Some people think that the octopus monster is dead, and there are no bones left!
Some people also thought that the knight army was invincible to the lord and fled.
Someone is interested and wants to study it.
Others began to feel panicked, thinking that the Blackstone Collar no longer seemed to be safe, and wanted to leave, even though there were more knights here than the entire kingdom!
It wasn't until a few days later that Bob came up with a preliminary plan for draining, and Malone summoned the octopus monster and handed it to him.
The rumors have dissipated a lot, but the topic has suddenly increased to the peak.
When it comes to communicating with octopuses, Malone naturally can't follow it all the time and take charge of it personally.
Although he is not busy right now, he has his own things to do.
In fact, it is not a hassle to solve.
Just let it obey orders, and then let a wizard with animal affinity communicate with it.
The lake is rippling, the waves are rolling!
This time the octopus came out of the water during the day, and compared to the last time when the vision was not clear at night, this time a large group of people could see it clearly.
"What a big ......"
Even if they had explained in advance, the crowd around them who were watching from the periphery of the cordon still trembled with their legs and unconsciously opened their mouths wide.
"I wonder if it's going to get out of control?"
The octopus came out of the water with its four legs supporting its body, and after receiving Marlon's orders, it followed the guidance of the wizard who was speaking beside Bob and used its tentacles to open the secluded river.
Its body is invulnerable, except for Ma Long's day-by-day swordsmanship, and for the time being, nothing has been found to break the defense.
