Chapter 22: After the Attack

Mr. Orfitt was going to stay in Centia, but when he suddenly heard Sermena say that Sanzang Town had been attacked, he was really relieved and went back together. When he saw the town of Sanzang that had been rebuilt after the disaster, he was extremely worried.

"I think we should change places, it is better to move one or two hundred kilometers west. At the sales briefing, Mr. Offitt made his own proposals.

"No, absolutely not!" Goku and Semena said in unison.

Goku wants to fight Coria to reclaim the Zen staff, and he will never agree to relocate until then.

Sermena has received a secret order from the Red Dragon Lady to develop Sanzang Town in the vicinity. You can move it if you want, but you can only move it to the east, which is closer to the Dragon Palace.

"But the frequent attacks of pirates are also not conducive to development. And they blocked the sea, and the price of air freight is too high. "Mr. Offitt is bitter.

"We are solving the piracy problem, and we will definitely solve it!" Goku vowed.

"yes, we can definitely fix it!" When Mr. Offett asks Mike for help with his gaze, Mike supports Goku.

"A mere pirate is nothing to worry about in the presence of a wise me!" Thrall had always been a giant of thought.

Mr. Offet had no choice but to hope that the mercenary group could really solve the problem, otherwise in the future that could be encountered, Sanzang Town would not be able to develop well, and it would be difficult to expand the scale of production.

Lady Red Dragon secretly ordered Sermena to prevent the relocation of Sanzang Town because she thought it was a good idea to build Sanzang Town so that Sal could have his own property. The current location is also good, and it is one of the two good places near the Dragon Palace that is suitable for development, and it is relatively easy to rescue in case of danger.

The Red Dragon Lady had thought of sending someone to help Sal build a nest here or at the mouth of the Glacier River before, but there were only three people in the Dragon Palace who had this ability, Master Zewahid who was in charge of the crystal mine, Master Aland, who was in charge of the mountain and forest management, and the lady herself who was in charge of the Dragon Palace, so she couldn't spare the manpower to do the work for Sal.

Mike and Wukong are now going to build the town of Sanzang and are willing to invest money to build Sanzang Town, which is very good, and the best place is to bring Sal and share half of his income. Although they definitely want the Dragon Palace to provide protection, no matter where a dragon nests, it will be more or less troublesome, and Thrall is just right close, as long as they don't take the initiative and cause too much trouble, then there is no problem. There is only one headache, since it is a partnership, they will definitely propose to let the Dragon Palace contribute in the future. Ms. Honglong is reluctant to contribute, and it is better to replace it with labor exports, and the basic labor force Longgong is relatively wealthy.

In the lady's opinion, although the income from small commodities is unreliable, and Saar is estimated to be able to divide a few hundred gold coins a year, Mike's "Sanzang Town 15th Plan and Development Outline" is very good. It is indeed a good place for agriculture, and Sanzang Town can become an agricultural town like Darmshal. That plan, although most of them alone will not be able to complete it on time, it is very promising for them to contribute to the Dragon Palace. 5,000 acres of arable land for slave cultivation should be more than enough to meet Saar's living expenses, and there will be more room for development in the future, enough to become his lair.

If Sanzang Town can really develop, Dragon Palace can also use its manpower and material resources to build a town nearby. Longgong has explored before, and the total area of Sanzang Town is nearly 2,000 square kilometers, and it is easy to develop 3 or 400 square kilometers. Or give them exclusive possession, and the Dragon Palace can also develop the glacier estuary, where although the total area is only 1670 square kilometers, it is easy to develop nearly 100 square kilometers, and there are natural fishing grounds, and the natural conditions are better.

The current Coria pirates are a headache, no one in the Dragon Palace is good at water warfare, and it's hard to say whether the elite can win Wukong in the water, let alone deal with the divine beasts. It was an opportunity for the siege crab to go ashore before, but unfortunately the Dragon Palace lacked preparation and failed to attack in time, and Wukong fought too hard, but he was afraid that he had already scared the other party, and it was difficult to have such a good opportunity again.

Although he did not dare to go ashore to achieve his goal, there were still hidden dangers, at least there was no way to solve the sea blockade. Although he wanted to eliminate it, the Dragon Palace had never had anything to do with the forces in the sea, and he couldn't do it for a while, so he had to develop like this first.

The top priority is to provide enough blankets and send people to help rebuild the houses in Sanzang Town. It's already December, and even if the climate is mild, it's already cold, and I'm afraid you'll freeze to death if it lasts a little longer. It doesn't matter if you're dead, but there aren't many people in Sanzang Town, and a batch of them have already died in the attack, and another batch of frozen to death will definitely not be able to open up the wasteland next spring, and it will be delayed for at least half a year in vain. If Mike and Wukong feel that there is no hope for Sanzang Town and are ready to leave, it will be a big deal.

Therefore, Sermena, who had been lingering in Sentia, was ordered to return to the city at once, and brought back all 2,500 blankets, 15 tons of rice, and a large amount of urgently procured farm tools.

Two days later, Master Zewahid also came to Sanzang Town, bringing 10 tons of carrots, 5 tons of soybeans, 300 spears and a group of men.

"Little Mike, do a good job, I'm optimistic about you, Kuku Kuku ......"

"Thank you so much, Master. ”

"Count it as Thrall's funding. These twenty kobold warlocks are all able to summon horses, which should be helpful for the construction of Sanzang Town, especially convenient for you to open up wasteland, but they don't have much combat effectiveness. One of the two dwarves was a druid who was good at agriculture and forestry, and the other was a scholar who knew architecture, and he was not very strong in combat. Everyone will stay until the end of February next year, and then they will go back to work on the affairs of the Dragon Palace. Ordinary kobolds can give you a batch if they need it, but they don't bring it because they think it's easy for you to catch goblins. You must build hard and work hard to develop, don't let the money go down the drain, Kuku Ku Ku ......"

"Absolutely, thank you so much. ”

The sudden capital injection of the Dragon Palace made Mike feel that it was not so good. He didn't really want to develop this Sanzang Town, but he was just idle and bored while fighting pirates. Although small metal goods are to be made, where can the goblins make them, Mike originally planned to move to the Dragon Palace when he leaves, and he can also use kobolds, and Sentia can also do them. Now look at the things that the master asked for urgent purchases, hoes, nails, rakes, hammers, axes, iron ploughs, and then look at the aid workers, who are good at building and developing agriculture, and clearly want to develop Sanzang Town into an agricultural town. But Mike didn't want to develop agriculture, he felt that it was too much work, and it was better to buy food.

What's more, in this way, the plan to redeem the nine-ring tin rod with Sanzang Town will not work at all. And their money is almost spent, and I'm afraid that the ransom will have to be earned by small commodities, which is really troublesome, and it would have been enough to throw a hollow town......

That's it, just build it well, and it doesn't take much effort on my part anyway, just let them do it, I'll just study my magic.

So, Mike irresponsibly left the matter to everyone.

Sermena is in charge of camp construction and agriculture, leading all the people of the Dragon Palace and a large number of gnolls and goblin slaves. The two dwarves in the Dragon Palace were her deputies, one in charge of construction and the other in charge of agriculture, No. 3 commanded the hand-felling, and No. 4 commanded the hand-carrying of stones and provided them with building materials.

Thrall is in charge of training and recruitment, and the main force of the mercenary group is under his control. Number 1 served as his deputy, assisting in the training and domestication of captives.

Cecilia is in charge of logistics, and her main role is to bring the cooks to receive rice when the time comes, and goblins and gnolls are not qualified to receive rice privately.

Mr. Orfitt and Kennar are in charge of production and trade, and with three men, they command the industrial goblins to supervise the seven dwarfs.

In addition to conducting raids, Goku will also teach martial arts or help Sal attack, in addition to instructing the 2 organization to deploy the camp defense. Originally, Mike had always thought that there should be no danger here except for evil creatures and fish-man pirates, but who knew that just yesterday, the seven dwarfs of the blacksmith found that an adventurer had infiltrated the blacksmith shop, and a battle broke out between the two sides, three dwarves were injured, and the intruder was killed. Mike then asks Goku to guide the 2 organization to set up the camp to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

Mike, on the other hand, excuses himself to study magic and has no time to take on heavy responsibilities.

Sermena is also doing research, she only does planning, and the specific things are all done by the two dwarven deputies and No. 3 and No. 4.

Kenael can also not be a serious business, Mr. Offitt thinks that the most important thing for his daughter is to have a child with Mike, and then to educate him to do a down-to-earth production, but Kenar obviously has other ideas.

"Mike, let's instruct other people's magic~~~" After three years of academy career, with Kena'er's current magic level, the most important thing to do is to digest the knowledge that she has learned before but has not mastered. Although it is theoretically possible to learn on your own, it will definitely work better if someone gives you advice. Now, Kennar had hit Mike with the idea.

"Well, I think about it. Mike touched his chin and pondered, "Okay, you worship me as a teacher first." ”

"You're someone's husband, why do you still have to apprentice for advice......" Kenael didn't expect Mike to have such a request, and she didn't let him teach any family secret methods.

"It's a good way to teach. "If you want to learn from X or something, do you think Mike will say it, and it can be used as a case to support similar behavior in the future.

"Okay, okay, people worship you as a teacher~~~" Kena'er doesn't know enough about Mike, and she can't think of that aspect at once, "Here, my spell book, do I want to give you another apprenticeship." ”

"I'll make it up later. Mike didn't hesitate to take it, swiped a few strokes, and signed his name in the teacher's column.

"Magic is in ......" Mike began to think to himself about how to teach what made sense but everyone knew what made sense.

Kenar listened very carefully, not realizing that Mike was playing tricks again. With her talent, as long as she is willing to work hard and be patient, it is not a problem to master second-order spells, but it is difficult to say about third-order. Although Kenael didn't mention this, after getting along for a while, her spell book Mike also turned it many times, and Mike himself could judge it.

If you want to break through your talent, one way is to work hard with great perseverance and perseverance, plus enough luck, and surpass yourself again and again. Kenael clearly didn't have that realization. Another way is to eat talent improvement books, which is very easy, as long as there are books, you can improve.

This talent improvement book cannot be called an artifact just because it is a one-time consumable, and the most important material is the soul of a strong person who has mastered the ninth-order arcane wishing technique or the ninth-order divine magic miracle technique.

Mike had seen a bloodline book, and it was Owo who felt that he had a new body and didn't need to care too much about the damage to his soul, so he split his soul into pieces and created a bloodline book for his own use. When he was a lich before, Owo had eaten an intelligence book, and he didn't bother to make any other books.

Mike also wanted to eat books, so Mr. Ovo encouraged him to study hard and develop his talents, so that he could make his own when the time came.

Since he knew that it was so difficult, what Mike was thinking about was definitely not how to make Kenael break through her talent, he was thinking about other issues. This Kena always refuses to cooperate obediently, and this time she must be allowed to comply.

"Let's use my spell book as a teaching material. Mike pulled out his spell book.

"People want to learn your trick first~~~" I didn't expect that what Kenaer wanted to learn was not a spell at all. She felt that it was very convenient and worth learning.

Mike secretly rejoiced, I was thinking about how to get around, and you sent it to the door yourself. "You know how a warlock casts a spell. ”

"Well, a small amount of blood is activated every day through a certain technique, so that those blood are in a state of different degrees of excitation, and the spell structure is temporarily constructed with the stimulated blood when casting the spell. Corresponding to the spell level, the blood activation state is also divided into 0 to 9, a total of ten types. "Basic common sense, of course the academic Kena knows it.

"What about the universal spellcasting materials?"

"There are many kinds of ordinary spell casting materials, and it is inconvenient to use, so there are alternatives. Some can also enhance the effects of spells, but they are more expensive. With a little practice, it can be used.

Magic crystal powder is the most representative universal spellcasting material, which can not only make spells more difficult to resist, but also improve the success rate of spells, which is a great help for learning new spells. The amount consumed per cast is approximately 5 GPP.

Pearl powder is another representative general purpose spellcasting ingredient that has no special effect and is worth about 1sp per cast. "Kenael, the daughter of a small merchant, is usually reluctant to use even pearl powder.

"The principle of material-free casting is similar to that of general casting materials. It's just that the blood must be active first, which is the same technique as the Warlock to stimulate the blood. Teacher Mike solemnly, "Come, let the teacher test if you have the talent of a warlock." ”

"Give a good lecture, why are you so annoying~~~" Kena opened Mike's groping hand.

This method of "testing whether there is a talent for a warlock" is usually mistaken for a hooligan, and the actual situation is not very different from people's perception. There is a big difference between the step-by-step learning method of a warlock and a mage, and the hardest part is getting started. For the vast majority of races, including humans and elves, only those with a higher talent for warlocks can step through. As a result, either you can't use the Warlock talent, or you're obvious enough to be able to self-detect in a generic way. The Academy of Magic has taught several general testing methods, but the results of Kenael's self-test are none.

Usually the so-called testing refers to the "bloodline determination", including bloodline judgment and characteristic determination, etc., which is used to help people with warlock bloodline find suitable training methods to stimulate and improve bloodline, and "testing whether there is a warlock talent" is not the same thing at all.

"Kena-san, it's not good for you to do this, magic learning, you need a rigorous attitude and professionalism, you will achieve nothing like this. Mr. Mike's expression was serious and his tone was serious.

"Okay, Mr. Mike, please check it carefully for me, I'll lock the door first. "Kenael is so angry and funny, this Mike, can't wait until the evening......

"To make it easier to check, you'll have to do it first. Mr. Mike's expression was serious and his tone was serious.

"Good good ......"

"Again. ”

"Don't go too far. ”

"Kenael, have a rigorous attitude. Mr. Mike's expression was serious and his tone was serious.

"Good, fine, but I warn you, don't take an inch. ”

......

This examination lasted for an hour, and Mike, who was satisfied, began to explain to Kenaer, who was flushed.

"You don't have enough warlock talent. Mr. Mike said solemnly, "Don't be busy getting dressed, that's good." ”

"What if someone comes looking for me......" Kena ignored him.

"However, it is not necessary to have a high talent for warlocks. Mr. Mike's face continued to be serious, and he continued to play hooligan in his hands. "Anyway, you only need to stimulate the blood, and most people have this level of warlock talent. It's just that people with insufficient talent take a long time to learn, and it takes five or six years to practice specially. ”

"You just have to say no to that at first. Kena kicked Mike a few times in anger, no wonder there is no special teaching in the school for such a useful skill, how idle does a mage have to be to spend five or six years learning an unnecessary skill. But one thing is strange, "Then how can you?"

"I'm a mage, but I can also use a few warlock spells. Mike took it for granted, "Didn't I say that?"

Kena was furious and kicked him twice. "When did you say you were a warlock, I saw that you were deceived by you when you held a spell book all day long...... Speaking of which, I seem to have seen you use two third-order spells, flying and bread-making, and you can tell me honestly, do you use the warlock or the mage method for those two spells?"

"Mage!" Mike replied categorically. However, his spell book can't prove this, and there is not a single 3rd order spell above, and Mike has only learned the three 3rd order spells he can use in the way of a warlock, namely the flying spell, the bread making technique, and the newly awakened fireball spell, which can be prepared without a spell book, so he didn't copy it at all.

"You're at this level, how dare you say that you are ashamed to ask me to worship you as a teacher......" Kenaer slammed at Mike with a pair of pink fists, if he could only use level 2 spells, he was quite limited in strength than himself, no wonder he had to let himself worship him as a teacher, he was thinking about that kind of thing......

"Don't look at me like that, am I that kind of person, I'm very proficient in all kinds of spells. "Mike didn't lie at this point, he can do most of the spells of the first and second orders, even if he is banned from the illusion system, he understands it well, but he can only rely on the talent of the warlock to cast spells, and this is how stealth is used. And it won't be long before he can learn several third-order spells, and the time to accept apprentices is a little earlier......

"Cut...... Let's learn how to make hot water first. Kennar was indignant, and let Mike take advantage of him for nothing, although he had to be taken advantage of every night, but he still hated it. She's more interested in life spells, and she's already been taken advantage of anyway, so what else can she do. After my father came back, I asked me to give birth quickly, I must have just known that he was a warlock, this bad guy has not said anything, it must be to deceive himself with his mouth......
