Section 163. The tranquility of Xingyue Bay

"I was ready to swing my fists and beat the nezumi to the ground, but they avoided me when they heard that the nezumi nemesis was coming......"

In the study of the Lord's Mansion of Xingyue Bay, Annan talked eloquently about his adventures in the royal capital.

"Looks like nothing." Olmedo chuckled, "You can still brag." ”

"How can you think that? My name is known to everyone from humans to nezumi, and in order to please me, the acting king asked me to live in the princess's manor and wanted to marry me, but I refused in the name of reviving the family. ”

"Since the future king values you so much, why don't you stay in the royal capital?"

"Some people see the strong and want to take refuge in the strong, and some people see the strong and want to become strong."

Annan couldn't be a pale peacher, ugly to please the aristocracy, and a slave to money like Farro Barros, who didn't want Annan to steal his business.

"The North is indeed a poor place......"

Olmedo lamented her experience as a young man: "I went to the South once...... That's where the real bustle is. Crystal paved floors, weapons made of gold. ”

"The crystal is so brittle, and the gold is so soft."

"Yes, throw away the broken floor, and melt the broken golden sword."

Annan was concerned about their wealth. The southern aristocracy is so extravagant, it must be quite barren psychologically...... After the kingdom crisis is over, he has to find a way to make the southern nobles also shout "Jack, I love you".

"By the way, is there any way to make Xingyue Bay not like a street, anyone can open a portal to come?"

Annan was apprehensive by fear of retribution. At this time, the only one who can change the situation is the messenger of the Golden King...... The Thirteen Supreme Kings will never be in the same league as the royal family.

"Put a mage tower there, or ask the legend to reinforce the space."

"Is Agarwal back?"

"Nope."

"Oh...... Remember to strengthen the walls and recruit soldiers, for from what I have seen and heard in the royal capital, they will suffer heavy losses even if they hold back the nezumi. Who knows if a swarm of rats will be missed and run to the north. ”

"Well, I've been doing it."

The unstable portal disappeared, and Annan's smile disappeared.

This is the first time that Annan has hidden from Olmedo and from everyone. Because the truth is too heavy. Young Annan let out a sigh and suddenly found a sneaky figure lying outside the window.

Leila stared at him intently: "It's my word!" ”

“…… Why would you want to eavesdrop in your own home. ”

"The eldest sister doesn't care, and you can't care either." Lella shrank back.

Remembering that this was the second floor, Annan hurriedly ran to the window and saw Leila carrying a fishing rod through the sunflower garden and into the street in the distance.

Pedestrians on the streets were beamed with joy and the hope of an upcoming harvest. For the first time, Annan felt the heaviness of the lord.

It's no wonder that Olmedo is always buried in a pile of government affairs.

"Lord Annan, the gifts you brought back have been divided." Maid Abby knocked on the study door.

"I'll go out for a walk."

Annan went out as he spoke, and on the way he responded with a warm greeting and came to the foot of the warm city walls, which had been construction sites since the beginning of the year.

Looking up at the concrete city wall that has just broken through the fifteen-meter-high wall, it still seems too short......

Having seen the pervasiveness of the nezumen, Annan now had no confidence in the defenses other than the Floating City. The only good news is that there is no reason for the nezumi to run to the north, and even if they do, there is no reason to invade Starmoon Bay in a big way...... There should be no reason.

Annan offended the Stoon rat man, what does it matter to the McCain rat man?

The ground vibrated slightly, and a dirty white dragon dragging a cart approached Annan and gently arched his head at him.

Annan smiled and hugged the white dragon's head, rubbing it gently. The dragon trainer is no longer here, and Ingrid arranges a task for him and the remaining twelve white dragons: to lure more white dragons to the foot of the snowy mountain.

Annan praised her for her initiative, and as a result, Rela also invited her to catch a hundred pounds of fish in a day, and a dozen pounds when she was small.

A thousand Leila can afford to raise one Xingyue Bay.

"How long will it have to serve its sentence?"

Seeing that the board car behind Bailong was full of goods, Annan was still a little distressed.

"It's over, but it won't leave......" said the foreman who came with him, embarrassed.

The workers were reluctant to approach the white dragon at first, but after getting acquainted with it, they dared to get closer and say hello. It was one of the thirty-four Jacks who opened the magic box, and he didn't have an appetite so he asked the white dragon if he wanted it, and the white dragon really ate it. Then the boring workers seemed to find fun, and fed a piece of bread or dried fish when they had nothing to do...... Xingyue Bay is not rich enough for everyone to eat, but feeding a dragon is enough for these workers to brag about for a lifetime.

As a result, after the white dragon got used to feeding, he shamelessly rubbed food around at lunchtime, but because the white dragon still had its own food, it was the same as the other dragons in the group...... So this white dragon eats double portions of food every day.

Annan looked at the white dragon in front of him again...... Under the embarrassment of the gray face is a body that is too strong to be strong.

Yili Gravel ran over, and Annan spared the white dragon, proudly saying that after day and night construction, the city wall had reached fifteen meters high—

"It's not enough, do you know how high the walls of the royal capital are? As tall as the white dragons in those bays. Annan was not satisfied.

"It can't be! Your Excellency the Blue Dragon can't even climb over it! ”

"I mean when they fly." Annan exercised the authority of the lord: "Before winter, I want to see the 20-meter-high city wall!" ”

"Wouldn't that be too high...... "The height of the wall now makes Eliyang's neck hurt, "We don't have enough soldiers to garrison the wall." ”

"Just another batch of soldiers."

Five hundred guards is still too little. In addition to conscription, there should also be training for the whole population, at least so that residents do not lose their toes because they can't hold their weapons.

Fearing that Yili Gravel was not attentive enough, Annan exaggerated the grandeur of the royal capital. But even to tell the truth, in front of the fifty-meter-high walls of the royal capital, the natural moats, the millions of inhabitants and the mage towers, academies, scavengers, knights, and noble private soldiers, Xingyue Bay is a small fishing village. In other words, Xingyue Bay has an idyllic scenery that no king has.

Then Annan went to Ingrid and asked her if she could let the other white dragons eat with her. Ingrid shook her head, she had tried, but she couldn't. White dragons are omnivores, but their prey is mostly fish and snowy animals.

The white dragon was special, and that was why it wanted to introduce its stomach pouch to the guard. With the nourishment of the double serving, the white dragon, which was stronger than its siblings, had become their leader.

A few days later, when Annan's life returned to peace, he received a letter from the royal capital, signed by Professor Emeritus.
