Chapter 443: Bureaucracy and Paddle

The Far North.

On the white snowfield, a large convoy of ten giant rabbits and ten sleds is running on the snowfield. On the sleigh, Mona, wrapped in a cloak, wields a leather whip, and under Mona's drive, the giant snow rabbits pull the sleigh and run to the lighthouse at the end of the snowfield.

A bright lighthouse rises over the snowy field. The lighthouse made of snow and ice rises from the ground like a javelin over the snowy field, and the flames from the top of the tower guide the travelers in the direction of their progress.

The sled convoy ran through the snow, getting closer and closer to the lighthouse.

Slowly, the view below the lighthouse appeared in front of the travelers' eyes.

Under the lighthouse, there is a camp made of ice, and within the ice wall, there are spherical Xiaoice houses of various sizes, which look like a town of ice and snow.

The sleigh soon approached the city walls and stopped at the city gates.

On the city wall, Mona, with a small skin on her head, cautiously poked her head out of a small window and glanced at the approaching convoy.

Mona on the city wall: "Mona Mona Mona?" ”

Mona in the convoy: "Mona Mona, Mona." ”

Mona on the wall: "Mona Mona." ”

Mona in the convoy: "Mona Mona, Mona." ”

After a period of exchange, Mona on the city wall retracted back into the city wall, and then said to the monster guarding the city inside the city wall: "Mona Mona! ”

Inside the city walls, a five-meter-tall snowman is sitting next to the city walls, seemingly resting.

After hearing Mona's order to defend the city, the snowman slowly opened his eyes, slowly stood up, and reached out to move the winch on the side.

With the rotation of the winch, the originally closed city gate slowly opened.

The sled convoy drove into the camp.

Soon after, the sleigh stopped outside a large igloo in the middle of the camp. This is the snow hare hut inside the camp, where snow hare and sleds are housed.

"Mona~" Mona, who was in charge of the snow rabbit hut, greeted Mona as she drove the sled.

"Mona Mona Mona~" The Mona on the sleigh jumped down one after another and handed the sleigh and the snow rabbit to Mona in the snow rabbit hut.

Soon, a group of Mona poured out of the Snow Hare's hut. With the cooperation of the Mona, the snow hare and the sleigh were sent to the hut, and the Mona who drove the sleigh left the snow hare hut and went to the command room in the center of the camp.

The command room of the camp is located below the lighthouse, and is one of the few "igloos" in the camp that allows humans to enter and exit.

Mona made their way to the command room and slipped straight into the rabbit hole beneath the command room.

In the command room, the bonfire in the room emitted a fiery light, and some Mona and demons were sleeping, chatting, in a daze, and playing games around the bonfire.

This icy world is monotonous and boring, and even Mona would not want to go out in such cold weather. Therefore, when there is no work, everyone can only stay in the house, around the campfire, chatting and being in a daze. This is true of the Monas, and so are the demons stationed in the area.

A beast-eared demon girl was sitting by a campfire with a cup of hot tea in her arms, carefully studying a book. In this boring world, learning and reading is one of the few entertainments of the demon girl, and only when learning knowledge will the demon girl feel that time flies quickly. At the same time, the desire to leave here is also the motivation for the girl to study hard - if she wants to transfer out of her current job, she must acquire more technical skills and then apply for a higher-level job.

Noticing a group of Mona scouts coming in from the rabbit hole, the demon girl's eyes moved slightly, and she raised her head to take a look.

"Mona Mona Mona~" Mona Scouts walked over to the campfire and said to Commander Mona, who was sitting in the first seat.

Commander Mona: "Mona? ”

"Mona, Mona, Mona." Mona's scouts replied in a rambling voice.

After some exchange, Mona looked at the demon girl who was listening, and began to consult the girl's opinion: "Mona Mona. ”

"Now that a new monster lair has been discovered in the north, wouldn't it be better to turn it into our lair?" The demon girl was a little puzzled.

Mona: "Mona, Mona, Mona, Mona." ”

"Can't convert?" The demon girl's eyes couldn't help but widen, "This ...... I don't know what to do. ”

Mona: "Mona Mona. ”

The demon girl thought for a moment: "Hmm. It seems that I can only contact the central government. ”

Mona: "Mona, Mona, Mona, Mona." ”

The demon girl took out a communication mirror from the box next to her: "How do I convey it to the center?" ”

Commander Mona: "Mona MonaMona~"

Demon Girl: "Okay. ”

The demon girl infuses her magic into the magic mirror. After a while, the image of a demon maid appeared in the magic mirror.

Demon Girl: "This is Stronghold 103 in the Northland, please answer when you hear it." ”

Communication Magic Mirror: "This is the Central Communications Department, please answer when you hear it." ”

Demon Maiden: "An ice demon's lair has been found in the north of Stronghold 103. But strangely, we can't transform that monster lair, and we can't control the monsters in that monster lair. ”

Communication Magic Mirror: "Received by the Ministry of Communications." We will convey this news to the Development Department. ”

After a short exchange, the newsletter ended.

After receiving the news, the Central Communications Department compiled the news into a document and promptly submitted it to the relevant departments.

And the person in charge of the development department looked confused after receiving the news from the north.

"Mona?" Mona from the Pioneer Department looked confused. Mona, who didn't understand how to deal with this matter, could only turn to her secretarial team for help, "Mona Mona? ”

The secretary of the Minister of Pioneer is three demon elites.

Hearing the inquiry, the smartly dressed secretary general raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose: "The monster lair that cannot be transformed, this is a situation that has never been encountered before. It should be reported to the Demon King, and the Demon King will decide on the course of action. ”

"The Demon King has said that if it's something we can handle, we'll handle it ourselves. He only looks at the results. Another secretary spoke slowly, "I think we should first ask the Minister of Administration if we have been in a similar situation before." If you really can't deal with this problem, then leave it to the Demon King. ”

The Secretary-General pondered for a moment: "You should also ask the Ministry of Intelligence, which may know more about this information." ”

Mona looked at the other secretary who didn't speak.

The secretary, who hadn't spoken before, thought for a while: "Agreed." ”

Mona: "Mona! ”

Although Mona is a bit silly, most of the government affairs do not actually need to be handled by it, but are decided by the team of secretaries below. The only thing Minister Mona needed to do was to put the secretaries' opinions together and give them over.

Now that all three secretaries have reached a consensus, there is nothing to hesitate about. Minister Mona decisively instructed the following Mona to go to the Administration Department and the Intelligence Department to inquire about the situation.

In the Demon King City, the offices of various departments are not far away, and it is as easy as "visiting the door" to inquire about information. Therefore, it soon became known that the Pioneer Department had discovered a "monster nest that could not be transformed".

The bureaucracy will refer to the "precedents" of the past when dealing with government affairs and follow the patterns of the past. Therefore, if it is something that has happened in the past, there is no need for the top leader to speak, and the people below can automatically handle it. However, there is no precedent for this matter. Therefore, after discussions in various departments, the decision-making power was finally handed over to Green's office.

At this time, Green had already left the Demon King City, so the official affairs of the Demon King's office were handled by the secretariat.

After receiving the document, the secretariat of the Demon King's office made a judgment on the importance of the document. In the end, the Secretariat decided that this official business could only be handled by the Demon King, but it was not very important, and even if it was not handled for the time being, it would not have much impact. Therefore, the Secretariat did not use the emergency contact authority to contact Green, but pressed down the document, planning to wait until the monthly routine report to report to the Demon King - but before the report, the Secretariat also needs to give its own "suggestions" and "judgments" on this document, and then the Demon King will make a decision.

The existence of the bureaucratic system has greatly reduced Green's work burden, so that Green can be a rice worm with peace of mind without worrying about internal political chaos. Even when there are occasional cases where you have to make your own decisions, with the assistance of the Secretariat, it has basically become a simple "multiple-choice question".

After leaving all the work to his bureaucratic team, Grimm, dressed in a relaxed suit, left the royal city with his guards and maids, and rode a warship to the island where the legendary "Elysium Restaurant" appeared.
