The study course is intense and orderly, and Al will also fantasize in his spare time. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info use his pre-time knowledge to do something shocking. For example, Alan recently wanted to draw on the experience of his motherland and develop a five-year development plan for the West, and for this reason, he also asked Mr. Felipe about the advantages and disadvantages of the Westside compared with other regions.

"The biggest disadvantage is that the West lacks everything. The western frontier lacks arable land, so it imports a large amount of grain every year. There is also a shortage of people in the West, especially young and middle-aged people, so the Westland Legion has not been able to fill its capacity, and all other projects have a shortage of labor. In addition, the Western Realm does not produce Yuan Stones, and the required Yuan Stones must rely on the Divine Radiance Realm, and can only maintain the minimum daily needs. What the West lacked most was money, because most of the taxes were used to import various goods. As for the advantages of the West...... "Mr. Felipe paused, "in exchange for the above disadvantages, the benevolent gods have bestowed upon the brave Westmen: cold weather and a large amount of uncultivated frozen soil, vicious beast tides and orcs, and barren desolation. Mr. Felipe stated the harsh reality with a blank face. "As a word of caution, Mr. Al, the Thorn Castle hasn't been renovated for nearly a hundred years, so it's not really inhabitable. Mr. Felipe added kindly.

Alan listened to it with a dead face, if it was a game, it would be a hellish difficulty, just like Civilization 6 started directly in the desert, and there was nothing around. If you want to get rich, you must first build roads? The problem is how to build roads if you want money, no money, no people, no people. I don't know if commerce can develop or not, but it is certain that Duke Edward, the lord of the West, will go bankrupt directly. Abolish the checkpoints and improve trade, but the western frontier needs everything, and can't sell anything, but it cheapens those foreign merchants. Let's not say that this is an act of killing chickens and eggs, let's talk about Mr. Sasha, the richest man in the West, the entire Spalletti family has about tens of millions of assets, which is a drop in the bucket compared to those big nobles and rich people in the realm of Shenghui. As a result, Mr. Alan Edward, the chief economist of the Kingdom of St. Teresa, had to regrettably abandon the five-year development plan for the western frontier due to various force majeure.

At the end of the course, Al would read some of the Iron Thorn Family's collection, among which his favorite was the history of the kingdom of St. Teresa, which could be compared to the well-known histories on Earth, but unfortunately there were too few books on this subject. "Since humans have learned to harness the elements, they have finally been freed from the fear of demonic beasts and can breathe freely in this sky. Then after a series of wars and divisions, mankind finally formed five kingdoms, but the days of peace did not last long, a large number of Yuan Shi found on the Sunset Plains broke the fragile balance between the five kingdoms, a protracted war broke out between the five kingdoms, it is said that the scavenging crows at that time covered the sky, the harvested grain rendered red, and what is more terrible is that the elves invaded human beings for some reason, at this critical juncture, the hero King Silori Relot united with the Holy Religion to lead the people to overthrow the rule of the five kingdoms, repelled the invasion of the elves, and created the Tulip Dynasty, at the same time, the Holy Religion promulgated the Holy Codex. However, three hundred years later, the blood of the Hero King unfortunately withered, the tulips no longer bloomed, and the Violet family and the Blood Rose family, who were married to the tulip royal family at that time, broke out in a hundred years war, and finally the Violet family won and established the current Violet Dynasty. Reading this, Al put aside the "A Brief History of the Empire" in his hand and complained to the teacher: "These books are too simple, and there are gaps in the middle, and there are still many details that are missing." ”

"It is said that because of the years of war, especially the Hundred Years' War, many books were lost, many of which were collected by the nobility, and most of the long-established noble families disappeared during the Hundred Years' War. ”

"Why? What happened?"

"Because the original Violet family was a Tuobian noble, and the Blood Rose family was an old noble, it is said that many old families supported the Blood Rose family at that time. However, the goddess of victory stood opposite them. ”

Surprised by Mr. Felipe's profound knowledge, and seeing that the teacher's face was quite gentle, Al asked another question that he was most interested in: "Sir, have you participated in the battle against the orcs for so long as a foreign officer?"

"Orcs, twenty years ago, the orcs invaded on a large scale, and I did not go to the front line at that time, but was responsible for preparing food, grass, ordnance and other materials, and the Duke was still a hairy guy at that time. Mr. Felipe had a rare look of pride in his eyes: "It was a great victory, and I still remember the grand ceremony to celebrate it, and I was so tormented by the ceremony and the pension." Many of the slaves on the border are orcs who were defeated twenty years ago, and the orcs have never invaded the border even once. ”

Listening to the teacher's description, Al couldn't help but be a little fascinated by the prosperity of the year, so he studied seriously, listened to Felipe tell stories first, followed the old butler to practice martial arts, and practiced swords with Freeman, and the days slipped by, Al even thought that all the letters sent by Mr. Duke to the City of Divine Radiance had been thrown into the wastebasket, and a month had passed, and the magic teacher had finally arrived.

When he was told that the magic teacher was coming, Al, who was practicing his sword, happily dropped his sword and ran straight over, too excited to even notice Lady Greel's strange look.

Al who ran into the hall was instantly attracted by a lady sitting in the hall, if there is one word to describe it, it is "glamorous", and her long fiery red hair is scattered wantonly on her shoulders, which seems to symbolize the unrestrained and enthusiastic hostess. He wears a long-brimmed yarke hat with lace trim diagonally. A golden hairpin is inserted in the red hair under the brim, and under the sunlight, it seems to coat the flame with a layer of gold, and the harmony is complementary. The misty eyes, half-closed eyes, and ruddy and slightly upturned lips are like a girl who is in love, waiting for a kiss, and like a noble lady who longs to be caressed and expects to be moisturized. Wearing a black low-cut skirt, the smooth and tight satin incomprehensibly wraps the beautiful curves, the pure black has a serious sense of taboo, but it makes people feel more tempted to tear apart the black and explore. Under the delicate collarbone was a white greasy, but it was hidden by a purple corset, allowing only the upper part of the neck and chest to be seen. Two delicate rose-shaped buttons are buttoned underneath, and a heart-shaped neckline leaks a groove. She sat lazily back in her chair, her legs folded, her hands playing with an incense fan, revealing a jade foot, and if she hadn't seen the sandals with pearls and embroidered gold thread, she would have thought it was marble from the Starlight Forest of the North.

Her posture may be a bit coquettish for other women, but for her, it is just a natural amorous style, and even Al, who has lived for three lifetimes, has to praise: "What a beauty." ”

Admiration to admiration, Al couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart: "Who is this lady, where is the magic teacher?" and even with a little dark psychology: "Could it be my father's mistress who came to the door?" ”

However, the Duchess immediately answered Al's doubts, "Al, this is the teacher sent by the Mage Guild. The Duchess introduced with a slight frown.

Is this the magic teacher sent by the Mage Guild? Al felt like he had been smashed in the head with a wooden club, and his eyes were full of stars. With his eyes wide open, Al looked at the beauty in front of him with suspicion. Of course, he was not stupid enough to doubt the authenticity of this teacher, and since he was still sitting here, he must have been verified by the duchess and duchess.

As if seeing Al's suspicions, the beauty generously introduced herself directly: "Hello, young master, I am Medea Merlin, a mage sent by the Mage Association. The voice was a little hoarse and a little low, but it was very good, and it slowly scratched into people's hearts, making people want to forget it.

Al asked tentatively, "Your Excellency Merlin, welcome to you, are you here alone, and you don't seem to see your entourage?"

Lady Medea smiled playfully, "I'm here alone. He shrugged his shoulders as he spoke, "The Mage Guild is poor and doesn't have the money to hire a guard for me. The duchess next to them also became more serious when they heard this, a woman came to Thorn Castle from the realm of Shenghui alone, not to mention that the western realm is so cold, this person is still dressed so coolly, thinking about it, it will not be an ordinary person. They didn't say much, though, and left it up to Al to decide.

Al pondered for a moment and bowed to Lady Medea, "Thank you, Lord Merlin, for coming, and please give me a lot of advice in the days to come." Al decided crisply and decisively, it had been a month, and he didn't want to waste any more time. Although the mage is mysterious and unknown, this is the Castle of Thorns, and El has nothing to worry about.

"I'm glad I'm glad I am, but can you tell me why she made the decision so quickly?" Ms. Medea looked at Al curiously, there was no test, so easy and crisp, Ms. Medea really didn't expect it.

"Because your name, Medea Merlin, is a good name, especially for a mage. Al replied earnestly.

Lady Medea was stunned directly, and then she laughed out loud and stood up and walked towards Al, the open incense fan covering her extremely interested face, she bent down to stare at Al's eyes: "Whether this is the flattery of the nobles or not, it is the best compliment I have ever heard, you will become a good mage, little master." Then, before Al could react, he kissed Al on the forehead, leaving a bright red lip. "I'm going to rest, take me to my room. The back of the maid who commanded the maid to leave in a dashing manner left everyone present.

Al smiled wryly and rubbed his forehead, it seems that the days ahead will not be boring.
