Of course, it is not excluded that these people have no face at all, and they talk about people and ghosts, after all, except for Lawrence, although these people are quite famous in Severton, their reputation is not so positive.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo looked forward to Lawrence's work even more!

"Lawrence, they are all multi-person collaborations, and you are only one person to create alone, what kind of work you can come up with, I'm looking forward to it!"

Lawrence's face was calm in the face of Xia Duo's expectant gaze, and even in the face of a veteran arcanist, he was always calm, neither fearful nor flattering.

"Lord Chado, Lawrence will not let you down!"

After saying that, he did not start performing directly, as the previous bards did, but took out a stack of manuscripts from his robe, handed them to Xia Duo with both hands, and explained:

"Your request is to create an easy-to-learn literacy textbook for your people, and that's it!"

Xia Duo stared slightly, and did not find any traces of magic on the manuscript.

As for the poison, he was even less worried, not to mention how rare the poison that could take effect on contact was, even if it did, there was always a film of air on his body.

This is shaped by the bloodline ability [Wind Control], which is enough to withstand the vast majority of physical toxins.

He casually took the manuscript and flipped through it quickly.

There is a saying in Chateau's hometown that "the words are like the people", and the handwriting on Lawrence's manuscript is elegant, neat, and almost harsh, and there is no alteration in it.

Combined with the fact that Lawrence can spell, there is a high probability that there are spells involved, but it may be that Lawrence finished the manuscript earlier, and there is no remnant of aura on the manuscript for a long time.

The content of the manuscript is indeed related to the Great Xia Collar, but the intention is inferior to the previous performance of "From Color-Resistant Slave to Great Xia Citizen" performed by Kanal and others, and even "The Legend of Great Xia" performed by Rhett at the earliest.

This is a pure travelogue in the south, although the second half mainly focuses on the Great Xia Territory, but it also describes most of the natural scenery and less of the cultural landscape.

Its only advantage is probably that the writing is simple, from shallow to deep, and at the same time it is secretly legal and easy to preach.

This is not a lyric or a script, but a literacy textbook that almost perfectly fits Xia Duo's requirements!

"Lawrence, you really didn't disappoint me!" Xia Duo said lightly.

Although there is still a gap between him and his expectations, objectively speaking, he really can't find anything wrong with this "Travels to the South".

Let him write it himself, it is estimated that he can't catch up with Lawrence, and sure enough, he still has a specialization in the art industry!

……

After a comprehensive understanding of several of the works of the seven bards, Chateau arranged for Leiden to settle the final payment for the men, and then issued a new assignment -

First, continue to improve the literacy textbook, a single "Southern Travels" is still slightly insufficient, at least to include most of the commonly used texts, grammar, this can be regarded as a formal textbook.

In the future, there will definitely be competition between humans and elves in the field of culture, and if they are not even proficient in writing, how much competition can they talk about in other aspects!

The second task is to compile an encyclopedia that can be used to increase the knowledge and broaden the horizons of the people, and can also be used by the apprentices of the Tower of Time.

In fact, before, Xia Duo also asked Leiden to collect the customs and customs of various parts of the north from the mouth of the consulate, but the consulate had a low status and limited knowledge when he was in the north, so it was also the right thing to involve more professional people.

To this end, he also promised to open some of the books of the Tower of Time to the seven bards, many of which contain various hidden materials, which is very attractive to the bards.

The third task is to select bard apprentices in the Great Xia Territory, of course, more precisely, "to train suitable literary and artistic workers for the Great Xia Territory".

As for spells, the bard's spell casting is somewhat similar to elven magic, and the requirements for personal sensibility are relatively high, and Xia Duo does not make any requirements for this.

If so, you can enrich the composition of the caster in the territory, such as druids and priests; If not, it doesn't matter, it's okay to the big picture.

There is no doubt that the mainstream of the magic in his planned territory is Nesser's arcane magic system, which is more suitable for ordinary people to develop in a crowd.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

There are three missions in total, especially the last two, all of which take a long time to complete, and even the last task, Xia Duo did not put forward a clear goal.

This is actually equivalent to recruiting Lawrence and others.

"Lord Lord, I am very interested in the compilation of the Encyclopedia, and there is no problem with advanced literacy textbooks and even recruiting apprentices, but I will not stay in the Great Xia Territory forever, once I lose the touch in my heart, I will leave, this is also the fate of the bard, I hope Lord Xia Duo can understand!"

Karnal, Red and others readily agreed to Xia Duo's recruitment, but it was Lawrence who really surprised Xia Duo.

It was the first time that Chadori had heard such a description of "the fate of the bard" in such a formal tone, so he asked curiously:

"Lawrence, what do you mean by 'The Bard's Fate'? If it's inconvenient, don't answer. ”

"It's no secret either, as any bard who has gained the ability to cast spells will be aware of it."

Lawrence glanced at a few bards next to him, and then explained: "Bards are born after emotion from the beginning of the sublimation of sensibility, and once the things around them are no longer fresh and can no longer provide the emotion in their hearts, sensibility will be dusted and spells will disappear." ”

Speaking of this, Lawrence gave a rare smile and continued: "I don't value spells, but after so many years, I have long been accustomed to chasing and moving, otherwise I don't know where the meaning of life is. ”

Chateau naturally knew that the "moved" that Lawrence meant was not gratitude, but sensual germination, or clear fluctuations.

However, Lawrence's explanation changed Chardo's opinion of him again.

Judging from the fact that the bard constantly tracks for novelty, he is more like a "scumbag" and a "prodigal son" than an ordinary literary and artistic worker.

Now that Xia Duo looks at Lawrence, he no longer looks like a noble man with a long heritage, or a holy warrior who strictly abides by the precepts, but a ruthless person who plays the world.

Even treating sick slaves on ships to the South may have been just out of curiosity, or maybe it was a new experience.

For a while, Xia Duo regretted knowing this, but if he didn't know it now, he would regret it even more in the future.

At the same time, he also knew where so much of the minstrels' lace news came from, and there was no doubt that it was the easiest to get a sense of freshness.

From this point of view, Lawrence, who does not mess with flowers, seems to be quite decent.

But in fact, there is not much difference, similar to the flower pie and the acacia pie in a certain demon gate in Xia Duo's hometown.

Only care about the moving itself, not the person or thing that triggers the moving, and the essence is a ruthless person.

If the bard were to be regarded as a disease, Lawrence was terminally ill, but Karnal, Red, and others were still in the mild stage.
