It's hard to imagine that there are so many worshippers in the Temple of the Twin Goddesses that they have to queue up outside the temple gates, and after entering the temple, they will first complete their prayers in the main hall, and then have to walk around the temple's gardens before finally leaving reluctantly.

Or only then, when these believers return to the town where they live, can they boast to their neighbors about how beautiful the temple of the two goddesses in the town of Dodan is.

Regardless, the shrine has become a must-see for many visitors to the town.

Another place where there are many people at night is the grass on the south bank of the Dodan River, where lovers will almost sit in a row on the grass by the river, and everyone will not shout, and they can even hear the sound of the water flowing in the river, but there are so many people that Selena can't even continue to live in the riverside hut.

It feels like the river-view villas are like animal cages in a zoo, and they don't even dare to light up at night, and all the windows have to block the white gauze curtains, and everyone doesn't even dare to enjoy the cool on the terrace, unless they are not afraid of being watched.

So Selena, who became the acting mayor of Dodan Town, moved her family back to a house in the center of town, and the riverside cottage sat unused this summer, except for Signa and Nika who occasionally returned for a night.

The only bakery in the town of Dodan has now opened a branch in the east and west of the town, and the taste of the baked wheat cakes is not great, but each baked wheat cake will have salt and sesame seeds, and the freshly baked wheat cakes will also be very crispy, each one is still two copper plates, which is much cheaper than buying wheat flour and making it yourself.

Presumably, the existence of this cheap baked wheat cake is also the reason why the town of Dodan gathers a large population.

Even some of the young men in the Warrior Academy would run to the town every morning to buy baked wheat cakes.

Many people do not understand why the town hall has to bear such a financial subsidy, and the devotees of the Temple of the Two Goddesses interpret this as the last guarantee of the goddess to the believers, ensuring that no matter how poor the people here are, they can always eat a baked wheat cake every day......

This is the first town run by Surdak, originally there was only one main street in the town, which could be seen from south to north, but now, after just two years, the town is at least four times larger than when it was first taken over, and the south is almost connected to the War College, and there is no room for expansion in the north of the town, unless a house is built outside the north wall.

There are not many workshops in the town, and most of the people here rely on the continuous influx of supplies from the Invercargill Forest to drive the employment of local residents.

"Now some people in the town are starting to discuss whether you will build a city here, the population of the town is increasing every month, and the town already has a northern wall, we just need to plan a big outline in the south of the town, and define this area as an urban area......"

Selena on the attic terrace held a wine glass, a touch of carmine on her face, and her eyes looked at this bustling town with a little confusion.

Surdak shook his head and said:

"This has reached a bottleneck period of development, it is difficult to increase the population after reaching a certain upper limit, and the most important thing is that this is always a garrison camp, I have only been stationed here for four years, and it is still unknown where the military headquarters will send the legions to garrison here."

Selena put her pointed chin on Surdak's shoulder, her body in a thin nightdress was tightly pressed against Surdak's back, and she pressed her lips to his ear with a faint smell of wine and said, "That's why you built the Iron Ore Refining Workshop at the north exit of Dodan Town?" ”

Surdak's bright eyes looked in the direction of the northern wall, casting his gaze into the endless darkness hidden in the night, and replied calmly: "That's right, and in fact, all the rich land from the hilly and mountainous area at the north exit to the north is my territory, and this iron ore refining workshop must be built on top of my territory." ”

Selena asked curiously, "Will you develop the copper mine into a small town in the future?" ”

Surdak thought for a moment before saying, "If necessary, I will, but I hope that the trading center in the northern part of the White Forest Plane should be a little further north, at least a place where the magic airship needs to sail for seven days to reach, whether it is Dodan Town or the copper mines, it is too close." ”

Although Selena knew that Surdak led the army here this time to continue to expand northward, she was still a little surprised when she really heard what came out of his mouth: "I have to open up further north!" ”

Surdak nodded: "That's inevitable, there are those ghost-patterned red ants in the north, I close my eyes every day, sometimes in my dreams there will be a scene where the entire valley is filled with ghost-patterned red ants, the next beast tide, Invercargill Forest will bear the brunt of the impact of the red ants, I didn't think that this place will be rebuilt again in a few years." ”

……

Surdak didn't stay long in Dodan Town, and the lord's army continued north through the Dodan Gorge.

Coming to the northern exit of the Dodan Gorge, there is already a part of the boundary monument of Surdak's territory, and on a hill in the northern pass, a steel dragon spreads down the gentle slope, like a steel giant lying on the mountain.

Although the furnaces had not yet been activated, seven huge chimneys had risen into the sky, and Surdak had already seen the steelworks in ruyt.

He saw Hamlin at the top of a column with a high-propped arched keel on the construction site, and the technical director of the steel mill had lost weight again, and even his cheekbones were a little collapsed, and he was tanned, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright, as if he was full of longing for a new life.

When he saw him, he was pointing at a worker at the top of the pillar and scolding, and the worker was so scolded that he did not dare to say anything.

It's hard to imagine that Hamlin's thin body can burst out with so much energy.

Surdak wisely remained silent and did not intervene.

After Hamlin had dealt with the matter, he accompanied Surdak around the steel workshop and briefed him on the progress of the construction of the workshop.

"So, in three months, I need to ship the selected ore powder to you?" Surdak stood on a high post, looked at the steel behemoth in front of him, and asked Hamlin.

Hamlin's forehead wrinkled, and after thinking for a while, he said: "It should be two and a half months later, and I need high-quality iron ore powder." ”

Surdak didn't know what his iron ore mine had been built for, and when he left, he was just cleaning up the foundation of the shed, and now he used to see how the ore screening and grinding equipment was installed on site, and according to the news from the Dwarf Workshop in Bena City, they should have started the final step of commissioning in recent days.

"Alright, I'll keep up with the progress of the work at the iron ore site......" Surdak nodded in agreement.

The more times like this, Surdak will realize that there are so few people available around him.

……

Without even stopping at the northern exit of Dodan Town, the army of 50,000 lords headed east along the hilly and mountainous terrain, bypassing the Thorny Mountains towards the Three Rivers Plain to the east of Thorn Mountain.

It was only on the morning of his third day in the hills that Surdak met the wolf knight Tiger and his companion Bernita, who were returning from the east.

Maybe it's because life is a little comfortable, the wolf knight Tiger has become stronger during his time in Dodan Town, and the frost wolf is even more exaggerated, his whole body has become round, and the silver quill on his body like pine needles is even more erect, shiny and shiny.

The four paws looked like the paws of a giant bear, and the horsemen's horses did not dare to approach it, and the horses of their knights' squad behaved slightly better.

This orc still doesn't like to wear magic pattern structures, usually this set of dealers is packed in a box and carried behind his back, he wears simple leather armor, and his pale cyan body is full of countless muscle blocks, and at a glance he knows that this body is full of explosive power.

Unbeknownst to the officers of the Alliance Lords, Surdak's men had an orc wolf rider, they were stared at by Tygo's murderous gaze, and most of the officers did not have the courage to come up and greet the wolf knight.

Tygo pulled the head of a giant ghost-striped ant out of a bag and grinned at Surdak, "Boss, this is still fresh......

When he laughed, two canine teeth were exposed, still a little terrifying.

Surdak leaned in and asked Tiger, "What is the situation in the east?" ”

The wolf knight said in a deep voice: "There are a lot of demonic beasts over there, and they often cross the boundary monument into the territory of Invercargill Forest, and the main purpose of our patrol is to chase the tracks of those demonic beasts, kill them or drive them out. ”

Surdak nodded, and when he and Bernita ate so strongly, he asked, "In my opinion...... You probably won't chase them away, as long as you track the prey, it's hard to escape! ”

"Hey, boss, Bernita and I need to improve our food once in a while!" The wolf knight smiled and replied honestly.

Hearing the wolf knight say this, the two-headed ogre standing behind immediately widened his eyes, it turned out that there were still these good things to stay in the Bailin plane, he muttered behind Surdak, saying that this time he would live in the Bailin plane for a while anyway.

Surdak leaned in, patted the wolf knight's strong shoulder, and said to the two-headed ogre: "Then you will follow Tiger in this short time, he is a very good hunter, and he will definitely let you eat some different prey......"

"That's great, Tygo, you won't dislike me, will you!" The two-headed ogre said to the wolf knight with an excited face.

"Of course not, you just happened to be here, I recently found a big guy on the side of the Three Rivers Plain, and Bernita and I really don't have a good grasp of it......"

The wolf knight said briskly.
