Chapter XV Situation of the Parties

While Mike and Saduriena are fighting, Cecilia is enjoying the "Dark Elf-style Cabaret" and is overjoyed, unaware that Mike has betrayed her and Kena again. Sermena is discussing matters with Dahni, and recently has to dispel the foolish idea of domesticating the mutant leader himself with the dog Sal, and to investigate the specialty and consider what to bring on the return trip, so that the animal trainer Sermena has no time to pay attention to the monkey Mike's tricks. Goku is basically aware of Mike's behavior, but he is more interested in communicating with the dark elves about the aesthetics of conspiracy, where to care about such, but he has gradually overturned his initial speculation about the dog-man relationship between Ovo and Mike. Sal knew a little bit about Mike's behavior, but he felt that he should fully support his brother Mike, who also supported him in a similar incident.

"Mike, you're back, how are you doing, is it dangerous?" Cecilia was very happy to see Mike who was 'coming back honestly after the battle'.

"For a mage as powerful as me, there is nothing in the world that can make me feel dangerous. "Mike blows. Although every time he saw Cecilia who didn't know anything, Mike felt guilty from the bottom of his heart, but he only felt guilty.

"Tell me about it. Cecilia didn't like to watch Mike fight, but she loved to hear these kinds of stories.

"Well, let's change to a good place and talk while walking. ”

"Okay. Cecilia was delighted and had another story to hear.

Fuerna, a multi-race mixed-race, was also very happy that she had another story to hear, and it was a story that she had personally experienced. She heard stories of brave warriors dressed in shining armor and wielding sharp swords fighting the demon lizard knights and their minions for the sake of Faturi and peace. At the end, as usual, in the midst of danger, Mike thought of Cecilia, thought of Kenar and Sinedi in the distance, burst out with great potential, and released a move of "Flying Lizard Flying High-Five" to kill the demon lizard knight when the spell slot had been exhausted, pulling everyone back from the brink of death.

Furna was deeply impressed by the language art of the leader, and she felt that if she had this level, even if she was the same as before, she would be able to eat in the civilized world.

Sadurella, who joined halfway, also cooperated with the performance from time to time, causing Cecilia to exclaim from time to time. The two of them have a good relationship now, and Sadurierna has learned a lot of information as she wished, but it is scattered and trivial and not detailed, so that the dark elves who are not familiar with the surface world cannot figure out why they came for a while.

"Anyway, do you need lizard eggs in your family?" Mike asked, unsure of what to do with the loot.

"I'll make fried lizard eggs, it's delicious, do you want to try it. Shadurellna laughed.

"That's right. "Mike has a headache.

"Fried lizard eggs, shall we eat them later?" Cecilia had already heard that fried lizard eggs were a famous dish of the Dark Elves, but she had never eaten them.

"We're talking about petrified lizard eggs, not the kind you want to eat. However, the fried lizard egg you are talking about is actually a kobold egg, are you sure you want to eat it?" Mike pinched Cecilia's little face. She, like Sal, often makes the mistake of not knowing much. Although this fried lizard egg is very reminiscent of an underground lizard egg, the kind of egg that costs two hundred gold coins is no more delicious than an egg, and naturally it cannot become a famous dish.

"Huh~~~ Why is this so......" Cecilia really elongated her little face.

"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to eat water, the elves also eat several kinds of insects, the last time I went to the elven tree, didn't you also order a fried bread, but I didn't eat a bite. "This fried bun chews crunchy and tastes like chicken, and it's a high-energy, high-protein goodie.

"Huh~~~ Don't talk about this...... Isn't the petrified lizard the monster you fight, didn't you say it's pretty powerful, why don't you raise it?"

"It's too difficult, it's too dangerous. One of the main reasons for the demise of the former Second Family was the domestication and magic of deadly magical beasts such as petrified lizards. Shadurellna sighed.

Whether it is a beast or a monster, as long as the skill is superb enough, it can be domesticated. If you start domesticating wild beasts from cubs, even brown bears and lions, the difficulty is not too high, and a skilled animal trainer can do it. However, if you start to domesticate a magical beast with otherworldly characteristics from a cub - not necessarily magical, but certainly stronger than a beast of the same size - you need advanced talents who specialize in animal taming, and even if you use magic, it is still very difficult. As for domesticating magical beasts with lethal abilities, especially petrified monitor lizards that can instinctively activate lethal abilities without warning, they have to risk being killed inadvertently at any time, and the difficulty can be described as high as flying, which is significantly higher than that of taming white dragons. But in terms of value, the petrified monitor lizard and the white dragon obviously can't be compared.

"That's right. Cecilia nodded knowingly, "Isn't that useless?"

"I can't say that, there is still a need for magic research. I've met someone who bought petrified lizard eggs and pups at a high price, and I don't know if that person can take them now. Mike remembered the Sentia Academy of Magic, and he didn't know if Adrian had a way to do that.

Adrian, who was only thought of by Mike when he was useful, is also about to become a father, and in addition, he has another important identity - Kena's Cecilia detector.

As early as when the mercenary group decided to get involved in the war between Santil Fort and Far Mountain City, Senior Adrian was ordered by Sister Kenar to quickly learn the 4th Order Detection Technique to meet Kenaer's sister's urgent need to care for Mike's brother-in-law.

This made him feel miserable.

Adrian wasn't good at prophecy spells, and he didn't understand why Mike's brother-in-law seemed to be able to learn any spell he wanted. However, the prophecy system is extremely important after all, and it is a mandatory spell for any mage to learn at the beginning of the period, and Adrian can also cast a second-order prophecy spell: Insight into the Invisible ......

However, the cannibalistic mouth is short and the hands are short, and Adrian's current expenses for learning magic are basically all paid by Sister Kenaer, so he can't refuse Sister Kenaer's "reasonable request".

By the time Adrian finally learned the Tier 4 detection technique, it had been four months since Mike had been underground. Detection and detection, it turns out that Mike can't be detected at all, because of the Nether core, he is immune to such spells, so he has to detect Cecilia, and thanks to this detection, the panicked Kena ends his thoughts.

As a result, for more than ten days, all I saw was Cecilia in good health, ruddy face, or sitting on a flying plank or walking, surrounded by goblins and sometimes gnolls, scurrying around in the burrow all day long.

Now Kena was much more relieved, but she couldn't help complaining: 'What, 'at least a month or two, at most three or five months, I will definitely be able to come back'. I should have known that this guy would look confident no matter how low he grasped it. Let's hope there isn't any danger. ’

Kena really wanted to get Mike back and let him see if he was worthy of his daughter, who hadn't seen his father for four months since she was five months old. But she could only think about it.

"Good men have ambitions in all directions, just stay at home honestly, don't nag all the time. "Mr. Offitt went home in the middle of his busy schedule, and he did not forget to take the time to teach his daughter a lesson. He himself has always been like this, only five or six days a month at home. After taking over Sanzang Town, I can't wait to even return home. He never imagined that he would one day be the mayor of a town with thousands of people. Although it is only a small town of an evil race dominated by goblins, although it still has to be commanded by his son-in-law, the mayor is the mayor.

The Chamber of Commerce is also thriving. Sales of needles and hooks have reached 10 to 120,000 per month, and the number of fire sickle knives is 12,000 to 15,000, and the annual sales are expected to exceed 100,000 gold coins, which is something that I never dreamed of before. The fly in the ointment is that even if other businesses are pulled by small commodities, they still haven't improved much, and it's thankful that there can be 8,000 gold coins for a piece, and the profits are extremely meager.

This made Mr. Offett very worried, the Chamber of Commerce has never been able to buy magic materials in large quantities, unable to solve the "semi-finished product production problem", in case one day the small metal products business is out of stock, the Chamber of Commerce is afraid that it will be immediately beaten back to its original state. As for his son-in-law's courageous attempt to go underground to solve the problem of purchasing magic materials, Mr. Offett raised his hands and feet in favor of his son-in-law's behavior of bravely going underground to solve the problem of purchasing magic materials.

Mr. Offitt once approached Koria, who handled the semi-finished raw materials on behalf of Mike, about the matter, and Colya replied: "Don't worry, I believe that Mike and they will be able to solve this problem." ”

"I hope so. Mr. Offett let out a long sigh.

Of course, Coria knows that there is no need to worry, according to the current sales scale, the semi-finished raw materials handed over to him by Mike will be enough to last until the end of next year, and there are more important things to worry about at the moment, such as the competition for the fishing ground in the glacier estuary.

This place is robbed every year, and this year is no exception. In fact, with the current strength of the kingdom, it can be firmly occupied and completely cut off the wishful thinking of careerists, but Sanzang Town and Leadfeng Dragon Palace both require the kingdom to keep a low profile, so as not to be discovered that its strength has increased and attract unnecessary attention. Therefore, Koria had to keep a low profile, and as in previous years, he personally led the army on the siege crab.

Kolya's plan was to create the illusion of a "gradual increase in strength", and so far it seems that it is carrying out well. In fact, the fish-man troops led by General Bruno have indeed gradually strengthened, and ninety percent of the fish-men in the kingdom have gathered around the city of Coria to engage in construction, production and training, and General Bruno only led some of the fish-man troops to take turns to participate in combat and training. According to Koria's idea, the kingdom should wait for the time to be ripe and really eat the eastern part of the Moon Sea with a thunderbolt, and then decide whether to develop towards the central part or directly take the golden waters at the mouth of the two rivers depending on the situation.

Koria's biggest grievance was the embarrassment of his men. After more than a year of careful teaching, there was only one druid among the fishmen who could use Tier 1 spells, and there were two warlocks. He had discussed it with Thunder Swordsman Rex many times, but he couldn't come up with any particularly good way to cultivate spellcaster talent. There is no way, spell talent is only easier to test after long-term study and practice, and their subordinates are all slaves, so it is obviously impossible to have the opportunity to learn and practice spell knowledge for a long time.

Rex advises Kolya to train fish-man warlocks. But the talent of the fishman warlock is relatively limited, and Koria does not know how to cultivate it. Sea elves are not keen on keeping slaves, and humans live on the shore, so no one has specially studied the problem of bloodline awakening for the fishmen, and the fishmen's own research and development capabilities are too weak, and whether they can awaken or not basically depends on luck.

Rex couldn't help with this, he still had a lot of things to do, the most important of which was to fight the monsters in the Galena Mountains. He originally thought that this place was closer to Lola's lair, and there should be fewer monsters, but in fact, although the number of monsters that settled here was indeed small, the problem was that they were more mobile in the mountains, and they also liked to come to the glacial estuary to find food, and the result was that he had to patrol every day like Sal had done at the beginning, but one active and one passive.

What's more of a headache is that the development team of Glacier Town and the development team of Sanzang Town have a large gap in terms of high-end strength and are very comprehensive: Rex is weaker than Goku, Alan is weaker than Thrall, Ryugu Mage is weaker than Mike, and Ryugu Druid is weaker than Sermena. Among them, Rex is weaker than Goku, which is the most critical, making it difficult to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, let alone recruit the captives.

The lack of combat effectiveness of the Leadpeak Dragon Army is also one of the reasons for this problem. Although a number of operations have been carried out to revive the military, the army is still embarrassed. The key is the personnel structure. There are many kobolds and few dwarves in the Dragon Palace, and there are more craftsmen and fewer warriors among the dwarves, which is very reasonable for production, and there is nothing wrong with the tactics of superheroes and cannon fodder, but if you fight a conventional war, the army of Sanzang Town can beat the lead peak dragon army all over the ground to find teeth. With Rex's strength, he can't take on the heavy responsibility of a superhero, so it's easy to understand that he is in trouble when he leads the Leadpeak Dragon Army.

After the Dragon Palace sent eighty dwarves to Sanzang Town to support another hundred warriors, Rex thought that the problem had been solved, but after entering the mountains and sweeping a few times, he unfortunately encountered mountain giants, and only sixty-two dwarves and Sanzang Town warriors came back. This made Rex deeply aware of the seriousness and persistence of the problem, and began to change his strategy, turning the initiative into passive defense, and preparing to rely on the fortifications to develop steadily.

The Red Dragon Lady doesn't have much to do about it, fighting the monsters is a permanent mission, and it can only be based on Glacier Town's own strength. The people currently sent out are already the best choice to be sent out, except for Alan, but replacing Alan with a stronger flange can't solve the problem, the key is not her. Originally, it was not impossible to send Master Aland over temporarily, but now that the Dragon Palace was developing the mountains and forests, he couldn't pull out. It's too big......

This reminded the Red Dragon Lady of the ungrateful Laxis. If she hadn't defected, with her strength, joining forces with Rex would have been enough to solve the problem, but she was a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised. She thought of the little silver dragon Xuefeng that Sal picked up, most of them were white-eyed wolves that they couldn't raise, and they should still be thrown back to the mercenary group as soon as possible to save a waste of money.
