Chapter 243: Cook
Coming to the vicinity of the Lost Lock, he first checked the surrounding physics
"Trap", after finding that there is no abnormality, Xia Duo entered the lock. The magic arrow was still in place, but the area where it had been had been had been almost hollowed out by Shado, and the thin brackets of dozens of branches had held it in place completely.
Originally, it was inserted diagonally into the ground, and then covered with humus and floating soil for the last time, but now it is suspended and fixed by the bracket.
The aura on the magic arrow is still there, weak but still strong, and it doesn't want to be completely extinguished. Xia Duo grabbed a handful of leaves left over from yesterday's sharpening bracket and put it on the side of the probe, spread the notes on his lap, and began to record.
This magic arrow is quite precise, far more complex than the [Focus Ring] in Xia Duo's hand, and it involves different levels of the magic net, and it is impossible for Xia Duo, who has only come into contact with the second layer of the magic net, to record it completely.
He can only record part of it now, but even this part is a project. And this is also the first time that Xia Duo has used a secret text to take notes, this magic arrow is worth it, even if it was the [Imprison Magic Ball] before, he only drew an arcane geometry analysis map of the spell, and he didn't even do it.
In fact, everything he has learned and known now is from the Tower of Time, and a 2-ring spell is nothing to the Mage Tower.
Encryption not only makes it difficult for others, but also for himself, unless it is to use the Chinese characters he is familiar with, but Xia Duo is not ready to use Chinese characters on a large scale at present.
There is a way that as long as a text appears more in this world, the easier it is to be cracked, and the cracking here is not only through linguistic analysis, but through magic brute force.
That's why there are mages who need a personal secret text. In addition, Chinese characters have very unique ideographies, and Chinese is also a mature language that is more complex than Naseyu and more concise than Elfism, so it may be troublesome to appear rashly.
Xia Duo only occasionally records in Chinese when he encounters the difficulty of expressing the color language, and even then he uses pinyin.
In the next few miles, Xia Duo seemed to clock in and out of the lock, from early morning to dusk, every time he was on time, and if he went further, he would probably forget to sleep and eat.
Until all the elements that can be recorded are recorded,
The "Owen" is also coming, and that's about it. The last time he returned to the Tower of Time, he made an appointment to go to Severton with Nia, in addition to letting Nia read the [Colorless Scroll], Xia Duo was also very much looking forward to what the true core of Nessreel was like!
The descriptions in the book are often one-sided and indirect,
"City of Seven Towers", the Austrian Federation, Xia Duo has been fascinated for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity to travel.
…… This, Xia Duo is
Inspecting the work of the people on the "construction site", Norman, a soldier from the George team who was in charge of guarding the riverbank, came to report: "My lord, the 'Lucky Owen' has arrived. ”
"Hmm." Xia nodded a little, and did not go to the landing site to wait for the first time, he knew that there was not much to look forward to on this ship, probably food!
After a while, Leiden also seemed to have received the news, first came to see Xia Duo, and then the two came to the landing site together,
The "Owen" has already lowered the springboard. Old Owen was directing the crew to move the supplies to the shore, and when he saw Xia Duo coming, he hurriedly saluted and reported the situation
"My lord, this boat carries pounds of semolina, a cook, and a servant, but both of them are hired for money, not recruited lords." Hearing that there was a cook, Xia Duo was happy at first, now the staple food of the camp is ready-made bread, and as there are more and more people, it will become more and more troublesome and expensive to buy ready-made food.
It's just that this cook is not his people, which is a bit of a pity. However, if he really became his leader, Xia Duo probably wouldn't be willing to be a cook with such precious manpower, and it would be true that he would cut down trees for me.
Now all the bushes near the camp that are easier to clear have been cleared, and the ground has been burned, but then there is hard stubble.
In this primeval forest with no traces of human activity, there are almost everywhere with one or two hugging trees, and you are already snickering when you can meet a thigh-thick tree.
At this point, it is very difficult to expand the soil outward, and it is not only necessary to put down such a large tree, but also to clean it up, whether it is made of wood or burned directly, it is not a project.
In addition, the ground is not completely flat, if it is only uneven in the terrain, the key is that there are stones in some places.
Clearing these stones is another difficult task. If you clear a forest within a radius of five miles on earth, it will be completely cleared in three months, not three years.
In the absence of advanced tools, the so-called productivity is people! Shado needed a large number of people, a large number of people at his disposal.
Looking left and right, Xia Duo asked again: "Is there a special channel situation for Yarman?" "The so-called special channel is slaves, but the reputation of engaging in the slave trade is not good after all, and generally few chambers of commerce are willing to openly admit it.
"My lord, the current Savile Territory can't buy any slaves, and when I came, Steward Yarman specially asked me to tell my lord that the Liaton Chamber of Commerce has gone to Connefila City to search, but it will take time."
"Time, yes, it takes time." Chado was silent, not only the Liaton Chamber of Commerce needed time, but also the Slevin Chamber of Commerce.
And it could be longer, after all, it's much farther to go to the mainland than to Connefila to the east! If he had the talent to train slaves, he would have been ready to catch the orcs, or if he had known that he would get a territory, he could have prepared in advance.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a strong interest in prophecy spells, even if he could only get some specious fragments, he could gain a bad advantage because of it.
It's just that Xia Duo has never heard of a mage who is proficient in prophecy, and even those famous mages who have personal biographies are not Sakura only some clergy can make predictions, but most of the time it is not accurate, it is difficult to change the future, or it is really not accurate.
And for Xia Duolai, the prophecy spell or something may just be a luxury. Soon, all the supplies had been sorted out and put into storage, and Xia Duo also took the time to chat with the cook of the paddle cook.
When he learns that the cook would rather risk the unknown to come to a fledgling pioneer just to save up for his son's 20 gold coins a month to learn magic, Xia Duo doesn't know what to do.
The recruitment will not come out (the people will not give cash), of course, it is impossible to increase the salary, and 20 gold coins per month itself is double that of a normal cook.
He is not a peerless celebrity chef, he is just an ordinary chef, and his skills may not even be as good as Xia Duo!
