The afternoon sun shines on the fallen leaves, and the surrounding light is constantly changing, shining warmly on people, so comfortable that people just want to sleep.

The slender man was lying on the grass near the cliff, holding a weed in his mouth, his hands resting behind his head, and his eyes closed, enjoying the peaceful afternoon. His extravagant outfit seemed to indicate his aristocratic status, and it looked like a wild retreat for a hard-working aristocratic lord, but the ropes and climbing tools beside him made it hard to believe that he was climbing from this cliff step by step.

"It's unusually quiet." The man muttered softly to himself, enjoying the climb to the peak, but at the same time making sure he was fit enough to face the next adventure in the jungle.

After lying down for a while, the man finally opened his blue eyes and got up from the ground. Patting the floating ash on his body casually, the man shook his short black hair to make sure no insects crawled on his body, and then put away the climbing tools like a mountaineer, and turned around and walked towards the jungle that was fascinating to look at from afar.

His footsteps rustled through the forest.

"It's a scary environment."

The young black-haired man muttered to himself, the two sackcloth-wrapped spears behind his back swaying with him left and right, looking well prepared, not at all like the person he said was afraid of any risk.

He looked up at the sun between the leaves, and the dazzling light pierced his eyes slightly.

In front of him, it was a half-buried holy white rock, and the specks of light fell on the white stone wall, which made people feel even more dazzled. The black-haired man lowered his head and placed his hand on the stone wall when he saw it, his slender fingers stroking the path of the pothole along the rock. The slippery touch isn't as historic as it seems.

"What is this?" The young man muttered to himself, but soon his expression was grim, and from the breeze in the woods, he felt the threat of the jungle on his side.

His figure shimmered to the side, the hood on his back lifted by the wind.

It was a creature that resembled a tiger, but in terms of skin color and size. It's not just about "beasts".

The young man let out a soft "oh" similar to an exclamation, reaching out and pulling out one of the spears from behind his back.

"Looks like you're interested in me," he said, peeling off the wrap around the place, "so let's have a fight?" ”

Green sat at the beech desk in the lord's room, stunned at the paper in front of him, the edge of the quill pen in his hand had been exposed to the air for too long, and the ink evaporated and only black solidified on it.

Knock knock -

There was a knock on the door, and Green was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized, and simply put down the quill in his hand. Shouted "Come in".

"Your Excellency?"

It was Lilith who walked in, holding a thick stack of papers, and walked over to look at the slightly tired Green and blinked slightly, "Is there anything bothering?" She was assigned to collect the damage of various parts of the magic energy area, and at the end of the day, Lilith, who had always been full of passion for the work of the magic guide, did not feel the slightest tiredness, but was full of expectations for the next work, so she saw Green's sad face. I couldn't help but ask.

Green looked up and looked at Wen Jien, who was holding her almost over her shoulder. Looking at her face without any difficulty, even in this posture, she still stood upright and elegant, and the aristocratic fashion in her bones was unobstructed, and hurriedly made room on the table for her to put down.

"Not really," he said. While removing the paper on his desk that was densely filled with Chinese characters. Although he is no stranger to lingua franca after crossing over, Green is no stranger to lingua franca, but if he really writes something, it is more convenient to use Chinese characters, "You also know." The territory has just been recovered, and I need to arrange a lot of things - and don't call me Lord when no one is around, just do what you used to call it. ”

The aristocratic daughter smiled sweetly, "Okay, Mr. Green." ”

Green took the text from Lilith's hand, "Some things are more urgent, others can be fast or slow, and even some things that are not done in a hurry will affect other work, so it is necessary to rationalize and arrange." ”

Sitting back in his seat, he pulled out his quill from the inkwell, but even though he had restarted his thoughts, he still didn't know what to do.

Green rubbed the corners of his forehead, a little headache.

"This is a magic rune?" The aristocratic girl glanced at the white paper on the table.

"Hmm...... I think it's a portable term I invented, and one character can mean a lot. Green opened his eyes and said nonsense.

"Ahh

Lilith snorted softly, she didn't expect Green to invent her own language, and her eyes sparkled even more when she looked at him.

Green, taking advantage of her inattention, secretly stuck out his tongue.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Green, Mr. Assesis has a message, those gnolls are working well today." Lilith remembered and hurriedly said, she recalled Acesis's original text, "He said that they were like they were full. ”

Green nodded, finally hearing some good news.

After capturing the Gnolls, Grimm didn't kill them all, and decided to talk to their leader out of some thought. No one knew what Green said to the white-haired jackal, only that when the two came out of the secret room, the gnolls had already sworn allegiance and worked for Grimm from now on.

In fact, Green said a very simple thing, since this team has lived here for several years, there must be a reason why they can't return to their hometown, so he doesn't mind letting them stay here, but requires them to "share" with their labor, and if they are willing to contribute to the construction of the territory of Kinglunga, he can accept the jackals as legal citizens of Kinglunga. Green's first consideration was to clear the roads and repair the basic fortifications of the territory, and so far, the gnolls have done a good job, although at first the mercenaries from the swamp were a little unhappy that they had to work, but when they saw that those burly and eccentric humans were also working hard, they suddenly felt that it was not so difficult to accept.

And today it seems to be on the right track.

"It's rare to have good news."

Green stretched his back, finally feeling a little more energetic.

"So Miss Lilith is there." The voice of the mage came through the door, and the two of them looked over at the same time, and saw Albert walking in with a scroll. "Is it not the right time to belong?"

Didn't you come in too?

Green rolled his eyes and waved Albert to get over if he had something.

"These are the wear and tear of the various parts, as well as my estimate of the resources needed to repair them, and the ...... Your Excellency will have time to approve it. A blush flashed across Lilith's face, and after reporting to Green about her work, she nodded hurriedly to Albert. Say goodbye and leave.

"It's slow."

Green put down the quill and leaned back on the backrest.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, after all, I've only heard about it from the Examiners and seniors, and it will take a little time to sort it out," Albert walked over with a smile and handed the scroll to Green, "So, Your Highness, before you leave." Is there a plan for the territorial issue we talked about earlier? ”

"Well, I guess I got some ideas." Green picked up the piece of paper, picked out the important parts and read them one by one, "First of all, the necessary part, I heard that the work of repairing the road has begun." ”

Albert nodded, "Exactly. ”

"Then we'll need a warehouse, and at least a blacksmith's shop."

"As for the warehouse, there should be one of the seven generations of territory. Unfortunately, it needs to be rebuilt, and the blacksmith shop should be easier to manage. I can handle both the stove and the tools, and as for the blacksmith, I think Acesis' men should be able to handle it too," replied Albert, who had a cursory calculation of the cost, and then added. "The son of the seventh generation of military uniforms took the initiative to withdraw in order to avoid the slaughter of the people, and out of revenge, although the army attacking Jinlunga failed to tear down the city wall, they smashed almost all the buildings in the territory, although there was a foundation. The reconstruction should also take a lot of time. ”

Green nodded, whether it was weapons, armor or simple building materials, the blacksmith shop was indispensable, and the warehouse naturally needless to say, many materials could not be placed in the open air, otherwise most of the resources they had on hand would be wasted in natural corruption.

"Then there are buildings that can be postponed, post stations, prisons, and training grounds, which we will all use in the future."

"Inn? Oh, you mean the information center, I built you to use Endymion's magical information transmission mechanism - well, I'll take care of this, the prison does need to be renovated, and I'll be scared for days when I'm holding the gnolls," Albert put on a frightened expression, and then asked, "As for the training grounds, ...... does Your Highness mean?" ”

"I guessed what you meant, it's both." Green stood up and turned to look out the window at the busy territory, "You can't be a strong man just by fighting on the battlefield, every bit of training on weekdays is important, and correspondingly, a training ground with complete facilities to maximize the effort is essential - but I do have another meaning, we need buildings that can cultivate military strength." ”

The young Servant Mage hummed, then asked thoughtfully, "You mean the shooting range or the equestrian range?" ”

Green nodded, "I checked the remaining training places in the territory, it seems that the buildings that can produce troops are all destroyed, maybe this was a military fortress in the seventh generation, and now it is simply an abandoned fortress with open doors." In short, we need more forces, there will inevitably be wars in the future, you know, we can't rely on foreign forces or take prisoners to expand our military strength, not to mention whether these added forces are reliable, at least once there is a loss, it is very difficult to replenish, if the enemy finds out that the military strength of our territory is weak, we can't afford to fight a war of attrition. ”

"Your Highness really thinks long-term," Albert smiled helplessly, thinking that the city would be attacked by enemies in the future just after restarting the territory, and in the Dark Mage's heart, his Highness would be too worrying - if it were Green, it would definitely be called "victim paranoia" - but at least Green was not short-sighted, and Albert was also relieved, "but if that's what you're worried about, then let's just introduce some creature nests." ”

"Creature nests?" Green turned around, and there was no surprise on his face, "If you're referring to dimensional lairs like Griffin Towers and Pegasus Demon Springs?" I do have that idea, but this thing can only be left to chance, not to mention whether our territorial energy can handle it. It takes a lot of effort just to find such a nest - and as for capturing ready-made nests, I don't think we already have the strength to do so. ”

"So, what about the constructed creatures made with the magic guide technology?" Albert suddenly said.

Green was stunned for a moment, and slapped his head sharply, "Why did I forget this stubble and tell Lilith to stop what she was doing right away—that's not right." It was for her to start building and building the necessary places as soon as she finished repairing them, as well as the puppets and puppets, and she was left to do all these things. After a pause, Green suddenly raised his head and looked at Albert, "By the way, you seem to be from Endymion, and you seem to be very familiar with magic techniques, can you go and help?" ”

Albert bowed happily, "We're here to help." ”

"And humans. The training of human soldiers will take time, but compared to the creature nest and the magic machine, it can at least be used on the spot, and perhaps the village we encountered before would be a good source of population. ”

Albert agrees on this point, except that he prefers to look for independent villages nearby, and Greene feels that it makes sense after hearing his explanation, so he will do it.

"In addition, there are some details in the arrangement." Solving a problem is like removing a boulder that weighs on Green's heart. The young lord sat down in his chair, took the paper and continued to read, "We need to train some of the staff, and as for the race, I will leave it to you and Assesis. In terms of territorial revenue, we need to set up a tax office and a team of inspectors to carry out work patrols. In the reserves, there is a need for fire brigades and garrisons, and for daily life there are well cleaners, street cleaners, noticemen, and lamp drivers, and as for skilled craftsmen from all walks of life, I am afraid you will not be able to do anything about this. Try to recruit from out of town. ”

"Oh!"

After listening to Green's orders, Albert couldn't help but let out an exclamation, "Your Highness Green, were you really just a woodcutter boy living in a border village before?" It seems that you are not afraid of this responsibility at all, just in case I came to make a good plan, but I didn't expect you to think so comprehensively, it's amazing. ”

Green shrugged, a kind of Cheng dù said, Albert's surprise satisfied his little vanity, "But also, I'm not racist, so you have to implement it, the Golden Lunga will be a racial melting pot in the future, and any citizen who can't accept this I can only say sorry." ”

Albert's eyes flickered, "As you wish, Your Highness Green." ”

"Well, I know this is not a problem for most of us, after all, we have undead and Kunali in our ranks, and everyone should have used to it a long time ago, and I am only worried about the future lords," Green said, turning the page to the next page, "We will need chapels, chapels, cathedrals, shrines, and monasteries, these buildings do not need to be rushed, but considering that everyone has different beliefs, at least to meet the prayer needs of the lords." ”

Albert finally got a little frustrated, and asked Green for a piece of paper, borrowing his quill brush to write down quickly.

"Besides, the legal side is a hole - I mean it's troublesome, I don't think I have so much time to think about it, you guys discuss it, and when I come back and give me a draft, as for the other aspects, I ask for a standard of hygiene, and a standard of subsistence and supply for the people, these two things are the most important, and we must not leave them behind."

Albert continued to record.

"Finally, in terms of information, we are geographically remote and need a lot of information, which we will need various forces or guilds to be stationed in our territory, which will not only facilitate us to get the latest information, but also help the economic development of the territory, oh, speaking of which, although the hotels and taverns are not operated now, they will also be completed this morning, after all, our territory is not completely closed, as long as it will be open to foreign population, these buildings will always be needed- And we don't have that much time to wait for investors. ”

Green spoke, and explained the gist and reason for this to Albert, who hurried over and dipped it in ink and wrote it down on the paper. Finally catching up with Green's speed of speech, he suddenly noticed that the boy's voice had long been still, and the dark wizard looked up in surprise, only to find that Green was sitting in a chair, reading intently the scroll he had given to the boy.

"Your Highness?" Albert put down the quill and his voice was still a little incredulous, "...... Gone? ”

Green took his gaze off the reels, "Huh? Or else? ”

"Well, I just think it's a little incredible......" Albert scratched the back of his head rarely, it seemed that this was the first time Green had seen him make such an embarrassing and surprised gesture since he met the shepherd's Dark Wizard, "I always feel like you've been a lord of a certain land, and you are familiar with it." ”

Green smiled, "Then you haven't been a lord, where I'm here, there must be a lot of important things left behind without knowing it, and many things will have to wait until you actually work to find out what is lacking." ”

"That only means that this place doesn't work out of the way you're familiar with," Albert shrugged, "At least in my opinion, your talent isn't the best among the children of uniform, at least it's one of the best, originally this is just my understanding of your combat talent, and now it seems that if you put it all together, you may have a day when you surpass the first generation!" ”

Green raised his eyebrows, "Then I'll borrow your auspicious words." ”

The Master and the Son of the Costume looked at each other and smiled, all without saying a word.

“…… So, you're just about to get started, right? After a moment of silence, Albert spoke softly.

Green nodded and raised the scroll in his hand, "Don't worry, with your tips, I will definitely succeed." ”

Albert had a relaxed expression, "That's right, you're His Highness Green—then I wish you a victorious return." ”

"Ah," Green said, standing up and putting down the scroll, "the others will bother you to speak, now is not the time to say goodbye." ”

The Black Wizard bowed slightly. The moment he lowered his head, he only felt a flash of light shining in front of him, and when he raised his head again, there was no one in front of him, and Green's figure disappeared into the room.

"Don't you want to talk to Your Highness?" Albert looked at Green's handwriting on the table and whispered as if to himself.

Footsteps behind him sounded steadily.

"I have faith in him."

"Confidence...... Al nodded with an approving expression as he listened to the muffled voice behind him, "That's what I said." ”

I have full confidence in you. (To be continued......)
