Chapter 597: The South Coast (Part II) The Second Update
So in the past few days, he has indeed found three suitable places for the construction of the port - the so-called suitability, in fact, is only relative. www.biquge.info The terrain here is not gentle, and there are almost no decent beaches, so there are only three fishing villages in the whole northern part of Evta, and the rest of the place is desolate.
After this exploration, Houdini sent a signal to the "Boratini", which was docked a few nautical miles away, and signaled that a ship should be sent to pick him up. After all, it will take a while for Roddy to finish the affairs of Holier City, and he will get a batch of supplies for the ship first.
But he didn't expect that the attendant who came in a small boat brought a letter from the council at the same time, which was full of harsh criticism, which suddenly made Houdini's face gloomy - he did not expect that the Barlenna Academy would continue to put pressure on the speaker, and even to the point of giving himself an "ultimatum"!
The letter was apparently sent by the Speaker after he was annoyed by Congressman Barrena, because it was full of offensive words, and even wrote that "the Bolatini is not Houdini's plaything, and must return as soon as possible, otherwise the council will warn".
If the threat from Barrenna College is nothing, then the signature of Councilor Corey of Blunka College at the end of the letter is something that completely angers Houdini...
Even the core members of the academy are involved in an ultimatum to themselves... The huge Blunka Academy doesn't even have the courage to say "no"?
Houdini felt like he hadn't been so depressed in years. His brow furrowed deeply, his eyes fixed on the bread in his hand, and he felt that he had no appetite at all.
"Are you going to fall into the well..."
He got up slowly, his robe was windless, and his depressed mood was wrapped in huge magic power and vented directly towards the sea in front of him - under the afterglow of the setting sun, a large area of sea water rose into the sky!
With no technique, no chanting, Houdini simply relied on this method to vent his anger.
The Magister's magic is immense, and in an instant the entire coast is as bare as if the tide is receding. Hundreds of tons of seawater were captured in the air by the magic, and Houdini felt the heavy pressure, but this feeling of competition was exactly what he needed, and after holding on for more than ten seconds, he exhaled sharply, and finally let the water fall back.
The sound of the crash was like muffled thunder, and there were echoes in the bay and canyon.
The whole process only took a minute, but Houdini felt much more relaxed, he exhaled slowly, steady his breathing, turned around, but saw a dozen or so students stunned, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, continue to eat." ”
He wanted to go back to the tent early to rest, but the apprentice next to him suddenly spoke: "Lord Houdini, just... Something strange seemed to be under that beach. ”
Houdini hadn't paid attention to what was on the beach before, and frowned a little when he heard this: "What did you see?"
"Regular lines... Just a little further along the coastline, where... Could it be something left a trace, or rather... Ruins?"
"Ruins?"
Turning his head to look at the sea that had calmed down again, Houdini couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous in his heart: could he have discovered something new by venting his anger?
The city of Elson was still in full swing at this time.
The villages and towns outside the city have begun to take on a scale, and the orc prisoners of war have been dispersed in batches and sent to different places to work as coolies, but I have to admit that these guys have more strength than humans, and they are very efficient in their work.
After the first few days of dismounting, the food for these orcs has been upgraded to a higher level - it is said to be an increase, but it has only been maintained to a normal level. But that's all there is to it, and the orcs have significantly fewer complaints, and they don't have so much to complain about when they get to work.
And Tevelin, who lives in the isolated area of the city, has also stabilized in the past few days. More than six adults have chosen to go out to work in exchange for pay, and starvation due to laziness has disappeared completely. As a result of the opening of classes, many Tevelin, who were talented in learning, were given new jobs, and after the overall salary increased, their living standards were quickly freed from the initial embarrassment, and now at least every family has enough to eat, and even can save surplus food.
Outside Elson, food crops are growing well – or rather, farmers have never seen them before. At this time, they cultivated mostly wheat, rye, oats and buckwheat, and the harvest season was not yet in early June, but the well-growing oats had already been harvested early, and wheat, the finest and slowest growing crop, was also growing well at this time, making the farmers smile all day long.
As logging expanded and new towns were built, several villages were rapidly expanded. Under the supervision of Elson City, the hedron-powered arcane golems have completed the heaviest heavy farming tasks, quickly organizing the fertile land into patches of farmland, and it is foreseeable that Elson will soon become the most productive area of the year in Evta, just after the war ended.
Because of a series of "talent collection" orders issued by Roddy before, there have been found guys who have come to Elson City with an ignorant face. However, in Roddy's absence, Camila had to entertain and arrange for these few seemingly unremarkable fellows - some of them were young men who had just become bards, some of whom had worked in a blacksmith shop for three years, and some of whom had been displaced by the war.
Anyway, these guys are nothing special, and they don't mix well with each other. After all, it is difficult for people with stable jobs and livelihoods to easily agree to come to an unfamiliar city to survive. Camila knew this, but she didn't show any impatience, and arranged temporary work one by one, waiting for Roddy to come back and explain where they were.
Instead of wandering around as bored as she used to, Merinthera locked herself in a luxurious laboratory specially prepared for her in the Pachar Tower, thinking about how to break through the first threshold of the "Elemental Messenger". Nephie has been in a good mood lately, and has been fantasizing about what she needs to prepare if she goes out with Roddy all day long, but she was reprimanded a few times by Camilla because of this, and the little girl felt that her mother was in a bad mood these days, so she obediently hid in the library to read books, and occasionally read popular novels from the High Elf period, but also read them with relish.
Nata wanders around the barracks every day, and she is now also incorporated into the "Elson CIA" department, but because her personality is not suitable to be a leader, she is currently known as a "vice captain of operations", with a salary level and power three levels higher than that of Tevelin, who is undergoing education and training, but is not responsible for commanding the gang.
She often practiced archery in the school field of the barracks, so she always met Nora who returned from class, and the latter greeted Nata when they met for the third time, and the Wood Elf Ranger was quite surprised, so he simply chatted with each other - both of them are not the type to talk much, but it seems that they really can be regarded as "no fighting, no acquaintance", Nata, who basically has no friends on weekdays, found that Nora and herself have many similarities, so the number of contacts gradually increased, although there are still not many words, but they can barely be called "friends".
However, compared to others, Akasha is undoubtedly in the best form. (To be continued.) )
