Chapter 31: A New Castle
The Black Wind Village was destroyed with the death of the boss.
Locke lowered the flag of the Black Wind Village and raised the flag of the town of Sephir, and when the mayor of the town, who had already heard the wind and had been waiting at the foot of the mountain for a long time, saw it, he immediately led all his men up the mountain, and the outpost bandits who had just defeated the Rock Gang on the mountainside and intended to return triumphantly, when they saw that their hometown had fallen, the enemy killed again, and then they all surrendered.
In the end, Sefir successfully took over the Black Wind Village without any supplies, although others had a slight complaint, but the mayor said that he could get rid of such a big problem, and his life would be worth it, and then after seeing the sandalwood box that Locke handed him, he was almost so excited that he couldn't speak......
After receiving a letter of recommendation and a personal reward from the mayor, the absent-minded Locke put it away, immediately waved goodbye to everyone, and quickly headed towards the northern wilderness area, in order to recover his energy faster, he directly caught two more crocodiles in the energy lake, and so far, in the underground river channel in the city, there are three 'diesel generators' that must consume 150 corpses every two days.
Although the pressure is a bit high, in the eyes of Locke, who is like an arrow at home, it is not a problem, there is nothing to eat, tighten their belts, and endure it is over.
Now the most important thing: go home!
It took only a few days for the energy reserves to be replenished, and during this time, Locke was looking for a place to place his castle.
The site must be far away from living things, it must be desolate enough, the place must be absolutely large, hundreds of thousands of square meters is basic, and there can be no high-level life activities around, otherwise it will be very troublesome to see such an exotic castle that appears out of thin air.
"How's it going here?"
Locke stood on a high slope of loess, looking into the distance, in the vast dry yellow plain, very desolate, this desert is not to mention people, not even half a beast has been seen - this is far from the sphere of influence of the Buckmondi Empire, if the castle is placed here, it should be safe enough, after all, the human empire is busy fighting.
After inspecting for a long time, the impatient Locke directly clapped his head and said: "I have explored all the neighborhood, there are no creatures, and there is no human battlefield, here it is!" Ready to get started? ”
"Hmm!" The elf replied that after the castle materialized, she would have to leave Locke's body with the castle, and the connection between them would be severed.
Let's get started.
Locke closed his eyes, meditated, and then reached out and pointed at the clearing in the distance.
Boom ——!
The towering black castle stands proudly on the plain, surrounded by a huge city wall around the castle, and the spire-shaped buildings in the middle towering into the sky, looking from a distance, like the main city fortress in an epic movie, and like the exquisite picture scroll depicted by the master's pen, majestic and brilliant!
It used to have many names: Castlevania, Eternal Castle, Immovable Fortress.
However, in Locke's generation, it was given a new name: Crescent City
Demons rely on the moon to replenish their energy, and the full moon emits the largest amount of energy, but the new moon has the purest energy.
From the ordinary werewolf full moon transformation to the high-level vampire crescent moon dancing, it can be seen that the more advanced the demons, the greater the influence of the crescent moon on them.
The castle was to Locke: it was as pure and irreplaceable as the crescent moon!
Locke, dressed in a black satin robe, quietly passed through the city gate, passed through the inner city, and stopped in front of the closed temple gate, looked up at the towering gate, took a deep breath, and stretched out his hand to slowly push it open.
After a loud bang, Locke entered the large inner hallway, which was a big change from when he first arrived:
A neat and tidy red carpet leads to the end of the hall, along the way on both sides of the stand a silver-gray knight's armor with a big sword, a gorgeous crystal chandelier hanging in the corridor air, the surrounding walls are clean and tidy, and the various swords, guns and sword marks that were imprinted on it at the beginning have not left a trace at this moment.
The castle is completely new, no longer as dark and cluttered with cobwebs as it was at the beginning—a true royal city.
The core crystal was directly upgraded to the first order after being repaired, and the moment the castle hit the ground, the core origin automatically consumed the materials and building materials that Locke had painstakingly collected from the outside, which was used to repair and restore the damaged places.
While a significant portion of the space has not been repaired due to material mismatches, most of them have been restored through time-backtracking at the cost of a lot of energy.
Locke looked around, sighed, and walked towards the wide inner hall in the distance.
"The host ~~~~~!!!"
When she first arrived in the hall, Anne fluttered her wings excitedly, but now her appearance has also changed a lot: her body has been enlarged to the shape of a 3-year-old girl, her golden pigtails hang down her neck, and the small dress made of pink petals on her body looks vibrant.
It makes people feel the urge to come forward and hug it.
"Hahahaha~~" As soon as little Annie rushed over, she reached out and took Locke's hands and kept spinning in mid-air, looking quite excited, and after she was done, she stared at her sapphire eyes, and said excitedly with a flushed face, "I used a little energy to change my appearance, don't you mind?" ”
"It's good if you're happy." Locke smiled and reached out to caress her little head, which playfully stuck out his little tongue.
"Annie."
"Huh?"
Locke looked at her with a calm expression and said softly, "I'm back." ”
The elf was stunned for a moment, and then replied with endless tenderness in his eyes, "Welcome back, my king." ”
After the castle is materialized, if you want to upgrade or build facilities, you must go to the core crystal in the depths of the dungeon to give instructions in person.
But at present, Locke does not plan to do it immediately, he has been in the dust all the way, now he just wants to take a good bath, and then sleep well, as for other things tomorrow.
Listening to the sound of running water in the mouth of the lion-headed statue around him, Locke, with a white bath towel on his head, leaned back in the large and misty bathhouse, his expression was very pleasant, and he felt that the hard work of so many days was worth it.
Reaching out and taking a sip of the glass placed next to him, Anne's voice came: "Master, is the hot water enough?" I'm in. ”
The voice fell, the door opened, and the little goblin flapped its wings and flew straight in naked.
"Poof——! (To be continued)
