King Feiling put on an elf crown on his beloved daughter, and in the cloud hair on the top of Lin Man's head, a magnificent flower crown inlaid with cyan spirit beads appeared, looking like a noble queen.

"Against fate, my daughter will entrust you from now on, I hope you can try to protect her safety." King Feiling took his daughter's hand, stuffed it into Li Xu's hand, and said solemnly.

"Patriarch, please rest assured, even if I die, I won't let Lin Man encounter any danger." Li Xu took the beauty's hand and nodded in promise.

"Then I am relieved, I trust you." Feiling Wang nodded with satisfaction, grabbed the hands that the two were holding tightly, and a dazzling green light suddenly appeared, and the two bodies of Li Xu and Lin Man were all shrouded in a green light curtain

Ding System: Dear rebel against fate, you and the wood elf princess Lin Man are about to sign a temporary attendant contract, do you accept it?

Temporary Squire Contract?

Looking at the system prompt that suddenly popped up in front of him, Li Xu was not only stunned

This temporary attendant contract is equivalent to a temporary battle pet agreement, which means that as long as the two parties sign this contract, Lin Man can occupy a place in her pet space, and she can be called out to fight at any time, and she can also be recalled.

In this way, the safety of the elf princess is more reliable, and there is no need to worry about dangerous things happening.

The rest of the temporary attendant contract is almost the same as the conditions for the player's special pets, except that the cooperation between Li Xu and Lin Man is voluntary, and if Lin Man is unwilling to appear and participate in the battle, then she can refuse Li Xu's summons.

Moreover, this contract is temporary, and once the war is over, Linman can return to freedom.

Li Xu understood that this contract was actually dispensable, but King Feiling specially set up this contract for the safety of his daughter, which was to fully protect Lin Man's life from threats.

I do!

He chose to accept the contract, and the green light suddenly shattered, turning into two dazzling lights and flying into the bodies of the two of them.

Ding System: Congratulations to the players for fighting against their fate, and your temporary attendant contract with Lin Man has officially taken effect!

The system prompt just sounded, and when I saw it, Lin Man's slender figure also turned into a green halo and flew into Li Xu's body and disappeared.

He hurriedly opened the pet bar interface and found that after the two pets of Blade Bear Rider and Golden Feather King Eagle, in the third originally empty pet space, there was a slender and beautiful person standing impressively

The top of the head of this beautiful woman wearing tight-fitting leather armor and setting off her slender and graceful body is exactly the two big characters of Linman.

It's just that unlike the two other pets, Linman's management interface is largely blank, and there are only two management commands of [Summon] and [Recall].

"Linman, come out." Li Xu's heart moved, and he tried to summon a beautiful woman to appear.

Swish!

Cyan light and shadow fell from the sky, and beautiful women appeared

"I don't even have to go back to the ring space," Lin Manjiao exclaimed.

"Yes daughter, you have the power of the water system, and the Tree Spirit Ring is no longer of much use to you, but your father needs it very much, so from now on you can get along with your benefactor." King Feiling smiled with satisfaction, and with a wave of his hand, green light flew back to his body from Li Xu's hand.

Li Xu's heart tightened, and when he raised his hand, the ring in his hand had disappeared

"Young man, this ring is actually my weapon, and now that the battle is about to take place, I will also take up arms and go to war, so my daughter will entrust it to you." King Feiling said.

"Understood, I'll take care of Linman." Li Xu nodded.

"Okay, okay, Brother Feiling entrusts Lin Man to you, it can be regarded as a matter of concern, the Wood Spirit Clan is waiting for the emperor's war edict now, and they will go to the front line to participate in the war against the enemy." King Tsubaki said helplessly.

"Don't worry, the two patriarchs, although the war is cruel, we have our own methods to deal with the enemy, and we will definitely try our best to protect your safety when the time comes." Li Xu said.

"I hope so, the hot spring lake you want has been divided into your control, and the long vine seal there has been lifted just now, don't worry." King Tsubaki laughed.

"Thank you, two patriarchs, then I'll go and see it now." Li Xu said excitedly.

The purpose of his coming today is for the Heavenly Fire Divine Crystal Vein, which is an important resource mining area that must be taken down quickly!

Bidding farewell to a group of NPCs of the Wood Spirit Clan, Li Xu turned around and beckoned his mount, and was just about to beckon Lin Man to ride together, but found that the beauty had excitedly rushed to the treetops with a large group of tree elves and ran quickly.

"Brother who rebelled, come after me." Lin Man giggled, her graceful body turned into a faint black shadow, and rushed straight into the depths of the forest.

This girl. Li Xu shook his head helplessly, and had to urge his mount to run wildly in the forest.

In the quiet dense forest, only the wind whistled in the treetops in the distance, and a large group of tree elves followed behind Lin Man, rushing to the edge of the forest, and soon threw Li Xu's mount down a long distance.

In the forest, the tree elf can do anything, and he can only chase with a wry smile, bypassing the large monster refresh area, and finally sees the sunlight in the woods in front of him, and he is about to reach the edge of the forest.

Lin Man stood on the ground with a group of tree elves, smiling and waiting for Li Xu to arrive, and then waved goodbye to his people.

"Brother Rebel, can you really help my people and minimize sacrifices?" Lin Man asked sadly.

"There's no problem, trust me, I'll be involved in this fight." Li Xu smiled and stretched out his arms, watching the beauty jump lightly and fly into his arms.

The war has not yet started, but Li Xu does not have that feeling of excitement, because the delicate feelings of these NPCs in the troubled times make him understand that the war that players are looking forward to is the life and death of these NPCs!

But now, the clouds of war have just appeared, and there is still a long time to prepare before the battle begins.

Li Xu rushed out of the forest with Lin Man, and under the bright sunshine, a large area of beautiful grasslands and lakes appeared in front of his eyes, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

Running through the verdant grasslands, he rushed straight to the hot spring lake in the middle of the Thousand Lakes Plain

Under the blue sky not far away, a large area of mist formed a beautiful landscape, and under the sun, the colorful halo shone in the mist, as if the holy beast unicorn appeared when it was a beautiful grand occasion.

The two of them looked excitedly at the blue lake shrouded in white fog in front of them, and countless bubbles were surging, reflecting the charming scene of thousands of purples and reds.

The mount rushed into the white mist, and the two hurriedly landed, trotting to the shore of the lake, looking at the beautiful hot spring lake that they were once familiar with.

"Linman, stand aside first, I'll get down to business." Li Xu said with a smile.

"Got it." Lin Man obediently stepped back, standing on the lawn far away, staring at this guy's movements.

Li Xu is also welcome, he already has the management rights of this hot spring lake, and now he can build resource colonies and other buildings at any time.

Bringing up the fiefdom management interface, a blue lake map appears in front of you in a green grassland.

Li Xu moved his fingers to find a suitable construction site on the grassland, and soon confirmed by the system that any building can be built on the lawn on the shore of the lake, but the premise is that it must have architectural drawings.

He found the flat meadow closest to the shore of the lake, took out the construction plan of the resource colony from the package, and clapped his hands to use it

Ding system: The player is against fate, you have chosen the right building location, are you sure to build?

Are you sure!

Swish!

A pillar of black light rose into the sky, the ground rumbled violently, a crack cracked in the green lawn, and the top of a black building slowly emerged from the ground, rising higher

Under the surprised gaze of Li Xu and Lin Man, a black single-story hall slowly emerged from the ground and stood in front of the two of them.

This was the first time Li Xu had seen the appearance of the resource colony, and he couldn't help but be very puzzled.

As the system prompted that the building was completed, Li Xu took Lin Man curiously to the stone steps of the gate of the black building, which was seven or eight meters high.

Outside the main hall, rows of black stone pillars are majestically arranged, and the four corners of the roof of the main hall are each arranged with four arrow towers, and in the middle there is a higher watchtower, the top of which seems to be arranged with a lookout platform and a catapult.

These four arrow towers and watchtowers are the basic defense facilities of resource colonies, and they are a measure to protect resources for players, but the defense force is really thin.

This kind of resource colony is a very special system building, it does not need to be built in or near the city, as long as the terrain where the resource vein is located belongs to the ownerless building or legal territory, it can be built immediately according to the player's wishes, and directly put into use.

The two of them curiously walked up the stone steps, came to the entrance of the main hall, and entered the open gate.

Inside the large hall, the four corners are the entrances to the four arrow towers, and in the center of the hall is a circular pedestal that leads to the observation deck.

After bypassing the huge circular pedestal, a small blue teleportation array appeared on the opposite side of the main hall.

Li Xu understood that this small teleportation array was not a teleportation facility for players, but a special setting for teleporting ore resources.

Standing in front of a small six-pointed star array, looking at the faint blue halo, he reached out and touched the blue light curtain, ready to activate the function of this teleportation array

Ding system: The resource transfer array function is on, please bind the city resource warehouse! Note that once a city is bound, 1,000 gold will be deducted from the city vault every day!

So that's the case, and it costs money.

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, temporarily denied the order, and did not intend to start the teleportation immediately.

Because this map is already the right to use a legal fiefdom, there is no need to worry about players attacking here, because launching an attack on the resource colony means declaring war on the entire wood spirit clan, and few people are so stupid.

Moreover, the Aromatic Forest is under the jurisdiction of Tianmeng City, and in this main city, Li Xu now has almost no enemies, and all of them are his own people.

The main hall of the resource colony is a huge space for storing ores, so there is no need to start spending money to teleport now.

After making up his mind, Li Xu turned around and took out the Elite Foundry Recruitment Token from the package
