"Blueberry fruit tea? I like it. Reiter smiled.

"This is the freshest blueberry of autumn, or did I just pick it the day before yesterday!" Henk looked triumphant, took two steps back and sat down.

Noticing the stone box in Ret's hand, Henk looked at it curiously, blinked, and suddenly stretched out his finger to point to the box, and said in surprise:

"My lord, this... Is it a Warcraft cub? ”

"That's right, it's still a white-pupiled rat cub with mid-level bloodline potential." Ret generously admitted, opened the lid directly, dispelled the dark element, pinched the back of the mouse's neck, and threw it in front of Henk.

Faced with the sudden little mouse, Henk's eyes widened, and he carefully took it, this is a precious monster cub, and there is no room for mistakes.

The little guy who was thrown out suddenly saw the light, and for a moment became panicked and rolled in the palm of Henk's palm.

It narrowed its small eyes and opened its eyes to look at the strange world around it, everything was new.

The first thing I saw was naturally Henk, who had a distinctive appearance - a scarred face with a light head, and was looking at it.

Out of fear of the unknown, the white-eyed rat cubs trembled and did not dare to move.

Henk was immediately attracted to the white-pupiled mouse cubs, and gently stroked the shallow white hair that had grown for a week, which was warm and soft, and the red skin could be felt with a little force.

"Squeak." The white-eyed rat cub screamed weakly twice, lying on his stomach and refusing to get up, a little listless.

Henk had an idea, and hurriedly left his seat, ran to the drawer at the base of the wall, rummaged through the cabinets, and found a small bag of bellflower leaves.

Quickly returned to the white-pupiled rat and handed out a cyan bell-shaped leaf, the white-pupiled mouse's tender red nose twitched, and then the small eyes lit up, a very attractive taste!

Forgot everything in an instant, opened his little mouth and nibbled on it little by little.

At this time, Leiter, who had been watching from the side, smiled:

"Tsk, yes, you were so skilled the first time, it seems that handing it over to you is the right decision!"

"Of course... What? Henk's smile stopped abruptly, and he was suddenly stunned, and said incredulously: "Handed over, leave it to me?" ”

Reitt rightly said:

"Of course, is there a third person here?

Moreover, I already have a monster, so if I don't give the cub to a reliable person, why don't I release it when it grows up? ”

"I remember that Thales doesn't seem to have Warcraft yet." Henk asked.

"On this trip, I found an ice rat for him."

"Navodrg ......"

This time, before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by LTECH:

"He's not exactly to me, he's more like a good friend.

And you are an indispensable member of me and the whole territory, a dedicated alchemist, and this is what you deserve! ”

As the words fell, the room fell into absolute silence for a moment.

Henk was stunned for a moment, his expression was moved, and his eyes were deeply moved, Lord Lord... He was so good to me......

He took a deep breath, quickly stood up, and bowed:

"Thank you, Lord Lord, your generosity is like the light of the sun, this white-eyed rat cub, I will treat it well!"

Leiter waved his hand: "You're welcome. ”

Then, as if suddenly remembered, he asked:

"If you're alone in your room all day, will you feel lonely and bored?"

The emotion on Henk's face had not yet dissipated, and he immediately replied:

"Lord Lord, as an alchemist, patience is a compulsory course, as long as you are immersed in the fun of alchemy potions, you will not be bored at all."

After that, he looked down at the white-pupiled mouse cub again, "What's more, now that I have this little guy, my life in the future will definitely be more interesting......

Leiter raised his eyebrows, nodded, thought for a moment, and then said:

"I remember you said that you had a younger brother who went to the royal city?"

"Yes, I told you about this when I first joined Eagle Town."

"How does its later alchemy level compare to you?"

After thinking about it carefully, Henk said:

"I have to admit that the environment on the other side of the royal city may have been sharpened more and absorbed more adequate nutrients.

After a certain return, when we exchanged alchemy knowledge, through conversation, it was obvious that he had a deeper understanding of alchemy than me.

So, in the past, my brother's alchemy level should have been a little higher than mine.

But now it's different, thanks to the alchemy manual you gave me last time, I benefited a lot, and now I have absolute confidence, even better than that guy Felix! Henk said with a hint of confidence on his face at the end.

Then he added: "And Hernan and Philos, who joined at the beginning of the year, a second-level magician and a first-level magician."

Although the two of them are not very talented in alchemy, thanks to the help of the manual, they have made rapid progress recently! ”

"Well, that's good." Rat nodded approvingly, "In that case, I'm going to set a small goal for the Alchemy Tower. ”

"Your Excellency, please speak."

"The first step is for everyone to successfully refine the Moonlight Elixir and the Boiling Elixir, and the second step is to maximize the success rate of these two elixirs and strive to meet the passing standards."

Henk touched his chin and thought about it:

"Except for Yunica, it shouldn't be difficult, I believe that with the help of the manual, as long as you are interested in alchemy, you will be able to do this sooner or later."

After speaking, while Reiter was silent, Henk showed a look of hesitation on his face.

Hearing the abnormality, Leiter frowned, and immediately asked, "What?" Anything else? ”

Henk nodded heavily:

"It's some important debriefing, and in recent months, I've noticed something weird!"

Surprised, Leiter asked, "What happened?" ”

"It's an anomaly in the Demon Plant Cultivation Field, and in recent months, I've gradually discovered that the growth rate of the Earth-based Demon Plant there is surprisingly fast.

Not inferior to the water demon plant blessed by the snow elves!

Those earth-based demon plants had only been planted for four or five months, and the progress of their growth was as if they had grown for nearly a year.

It's unbelievable......" Henk's eyes were both delightful and suspicious.

Leyter's eyes flashed suddenly, it turned out that he was talking about this matter, and he blamed him for not telling Genk about the sand elves, and there was a misunderstanding.

Shaking his head, he drank the cup of fruit tea in one gulp, and simply got up and walked to the door.

"Henk, come with me."

Looking at Leiter's back, a strange thought appeared in Henk's heart, looking at the meaning of the lord, as if he had known it for a long time?

So, put the white-eyed mouse cubs into a box and followed in the footsteps of Shanglei without delay.

The Demon Plant Cultivation Field was only a kilometer away from the Alchemy Tower, and the two of them arrived quickly.

The eye is blue and yellow, and the sea of magic plants set off by colorful colors.

After entering, Leiter whistled first!

Having been ordered in advance, the fire grid, which had not been far away from the air, swooped down in response.

A gust of air blew the demon bushes swaying, and the branches and vines rustled.

The magic crystal packages on the two claws of the fire grid have been placed in the manor, but there is still an important thing on the wings - earth-type high-grade magic plants, mud berries.

Rett touched the head of the fire grid, and the latter obediently spread his right wing, allowing Rett to remove a black package.

After the fire grid flew away, LTECH opened the package.

Under Henk's curious gaze, he pulled out a two-meter-long dark yellow rattan with a dense and slender gray-white vein, and at one end was a round fruit the size of a light yellow walnut.

Henk's eyes widened, and he saw clearly what Reiter had taken out of the package, and exclaimed:

"It's... This is a high-level earth-based demon plant, mud fruit?! ”

Leiter smiled: "As you can see, the two mud berries are also the harvest of the white rat branch veins this time." ”

"That's great!" Henk took a deep breath and gradually calmed down, the shock in his pupils was replaced by joy, and he volunteered: "Then what are you waiting for, leave it to me, I'll plant it." ”

Rett did not refuse, and directly handed over the two mud berries to Henk, who hurriedly ran to the area of the earth demon plant, picked up the tools on the ground, and turned over the soil, digging a pit, and filling the soil, and the movements were extremely skillful. After all, an alchemist who can't farm is not an excellent alchemist!

Finally stepping on the ground, Henk clapped his hands and happily returned to Reiter, and heard Reiter say again:

"Henk, there's a secret that should be told to you......"

As soon as he finished speaking, in Henk's puzzled and curious eyes, a sand-yellow phantom gradually appeared next to Leiter, more than a meter high, floating quietly in the air, quite quiet.

Suddenly, the Demon Plant Cultivation Field fell into an eerie silence.

Henk's facial expression was quite exciting, his mouth was wide open enough to stuff an egg, and his eyes were round, and it lasted for several seconds before he gradually realized what had just happened—his lord, who had subdued a sand elf!

In front of him, apart from the elf explanation, he couldn't think of anything else to replace it.

"This, is this really a sand elf?" Henk, though he had a strong intuition, couldn't help but sigh and ask.

"Not bad." While calmly controlling the sand elf to fly towards the mudberry planting field, Reiter explained: "To be honest, the last time I went to the Rem Kingdom on business, I accidentally met this sand elf, and I subdued it by chance. ”

Henk's eyes lit up, and he looked at Reiter's body with great admiration!

"Lord Lord, you are the chosen one, you are the only one!"

"Huh." Reiter shook his head with a smile, and instead of answering, he said:

"From now on, the Demon Plant Cultivation Field, always maintain the previous rules - except for you and me, and a few people in the know, no one else can be allowed in."

"Understood!" Henk's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he said with a serious face:

"And I usually take care of this place alone, only Ruilai and Young Master Thales sometimes come over, and no one else is allowed to enter!"

"So good, keep it up."

Then, the two of them chatted briefly around the Alchemy Tower and the Demon Plant Cultivation Field.

By the time we got back to the manor, it was getting dark.

At night, the castle held a sumptuous dinner.

Having eaten and drunk, Reiter returned to the hall on the fifth floor alone and sat down on a bench near the fireplace.

Feeling the warm current behind him, after a while, a sound of footsteps going upstairs sounded, getting closer and closer.

Sveta walked up with a glass of wine and greeted, "Good evening, sir." ”

"Good evening, Sveta." Rett turned his head to look.

Sveta touched the handrail and said, "Master, Master Ruilai and Krina went to Dam Town, saying that they would stay for a few days and have not come back yet.

Before leaving, Young Master Ruilai specially explained to me, saying that when you come back, I will report to you on the construction and development of Dark Eagle City and Shenyan Village. ”

Rett sat upright, "No problem, please speak." ”

Sveta stepped forward and poured most of the wine for Reiter, then took two steps back to keep his distance:

"As of today, there are four thousand five hundred registered lords in the entire territory, and since you were promoted to Earl and established Dark Eagle City, the inflow of population has increased explosively.

Although it has slowed down recently, it has always been in a state of inflow.

Most of these influxes were ordinary civilians who were assigned to settle down in Shenyan Village to farm. Some of them don't want to farm, and they don't have any skills, so they do some manual labor or service work in Dark Eagle City.

A small number of people with a skill, about a hundred or more, were arranged to set up shops in Dark Eagle City. ”

Leiter put his right hand on his cheek, and kept listening all the time, and when he heard this, his heart suddenly moved, and he asked casually:

"I've learned everything, but besides, there haven't been any recent cases of kidnapping men and women and opening a silver place, right?"

"It's... In the early days, someone tried to fight this idea, but after being severely punished, no one ever defended the law again. ”

Well, I don't want chaos in my territory. It doesn't matter if there is a scattered surname transaction, but the signs of organization and scale must be curbed...... Lei nodded and said, "How many transcendents are there in Dark Eagle City?" ”

"According to the daily statistics of the guards, the number of transcendents fluctuates between fifty and one hundred per day, and the overall number is slowly increasing.

Among them, there are twenty-three people who are resident in Chaofan, and so far eleven people have purchased real estate in Dark Eagle City, including residences and shops. ”

"What is the level of extraordinary strength of the permanent superordinate?"

"Young Master Ruilai said, only one is a third-level knight, three are second-level knights, and the rest are first-level knights.

But most of these people are nobles, and Young Master Ruilai guesses that it should be an investment made by the forces behind them. ”

It should be like this, it is normal for nobles to invest in other territories and open shops...... Leiter pinched the crystal goblet, took a sip of wine, and continued to ask:

"In the month since I left, have there been any cases of disputes between transcendents and civilians?"

Sveta groaned, "There seem to be a few, but there were no casualties, and they were stopped in time by the patrol led by Shireen. ”

"Well done." Leiter affirmed: "We can't change a person's morality and character, but as long as you are in Dark Eagle City, you will be bound by our rules and force. ”

"The master is right."

After chatting about the specifics of the territory, Sveta stepped back with the wine bottle, and Rett got up and walked down the passage, all the way back to his room.

Two in one, long waiting

The words of thanks are in the "Writer's Words".
