443. Changes in the East

"This Lord of Night Qi City, just have me in his heart, why don't you build such a tall god statue, let the orcs see it in the future, and it should be mistaken for an ancient god." At the regular morning meeting of the Tower of Purity, the God Emperor said with disgust in front of many legends: "Besides, it's just a matter of building my statue, why don't you build a statue of his family next to it?" What an impact on the image of the gods of our human empire. ”

At the morning meeting, there were really disciples who thought that His Majesty was indeed disgusted, until the God Emperor said it for the fourth time at dinner, and at this time he also understood that if he really didn't like it, why did he send God down once yesterday?

As the main god of the Temple Alliance, the entire empire has very strict regulations on the size and specifications of the gods and emblems, and according to the standards of the Temple Alliance, Rand simply cannot build such a high god statue.

However, the Galloping Horse Plain was outside the scope of the Temple Alliance's reform edict, and this was the first temple that Rand had built in the plain, and the Emperor was still very satisfied with the barbarian believers brought by this temple.

"That statue in the south can't be built in your image, right?" Ben pointed out Rant's careful thoughts, but he didn't say much, after all, his ancestor's demigod path was right in front of him, and it was logical for him to want to take the demigod path with the Holy Fire Goblin in his hand.

"Actually, my idea is to build a religious and commercial city like Abaidi in the north, and a military fortress to the south of the mountain pass." The southern slope is low, the western slope is relatively gentle, and Rand sometimes walks down the mountain himself, so it must be heavily guarded, compared to the northern slope, which is taller and steeper, and the enemy has no way to attack, so it is suitable as a city barrier.

The valley between the two hillsides has now been completely sealed off by two 50-meter-high walls in front and back, with only two gates serving as entrances and exits between the plain and the basin for caravans, and in the future a large number of giant crossbows will be carried to the walls and fortresses.

"I must warn you that Abaidi is a thorn in the eye of the orc court, and they have their own interests," for an imperial capital like Ben, this kind of city-state is too independent, and it is completely a gathering place for small merchants.

"I know, but once it really becomes a bustling commercial city, the benefits are huge."

Ben didn't pursue Rand's opinion of Abedi, he came here for more important things: "By the way, the first batch of 2 of your small boiler and large boiler have been processed, and the next few are estimated to be completed in about 10 days, but the imperial capital requires the Salt and Iron Division to test first, and the remaining magic furnaces will have to wait until the installation of the Salt and Iron Division's magic furnace is completed." ”

Rand's new magic furnace, the Tower of Purity and the Red Dragon Rock are all known, since the imperial capital has ordered 8 units, and the Dragon Tooth City has also followed the pace and ordered 3 units, the production plan of the entire Salt and Iron Division has basically been re-changed, and the second hall is dedicated to the production of magic furnaces.

"In that case, why don't you let Sophia come back, and just come with me to the Great Forest." Rand said with a grin.

"You think beautifully, Sherman has arranged a full rune processing plan for them, many castings need earth elves to build molds, and she also asked Wendy and Gruya when they are available to help with the processing."

"There are so many mages in my territory, and he will take Faneuil and the little cardinal with him, and I will have no mages here" In fact, Lante let Sophia and other girls go to work in the Salt and Iron Division, and Sherman sent the magic library of the imperial capital to her in order to make them draw more magic circles and magic patterns, and the mages of the Salt and Iron Division also had no reservations about them.

However, now that the war is imminent, Rand has this little manpower in his hands and sends it to the Salt and Iron Division, and there is no one to work on the front line.

"I won't let you suffer," the legendary mage said and took out a list, "This list is the magus provided by the Tower of Purity and the Salt Iron Division, all of whom are good at combat magic and have the ability to fight in close combat, these 5 magisters will fight for Wendy, Jonny, Sophia, Faneuil and Cardinal on the western border, and the girls can draw magic patterns in the Pure Tower and the Salt Iron Division during the war." ”

"I'm not afraid that Lili and Firefly will be sad when you say that," Rand smiled as he looked at the list.

"Firefly, are you still willing to put on the front line, she can't take care of the demon plants in Night Qi City? Lili is not good at fighting, so you let her accompany Wendy; As for Gleia, I guess you don't dare to let her go to the front, right? "The legendary mage is quite accurate with Rant, and of course, Rand admits that even without this replacement list, Rand will not let the girls come to the front.

In the evening, Rand wanted to have a drink with Ben Kaul, but was called into the communication room by the Cardinals.

"My lord, Neil brought a leader of the Ankylosaurus tribe a few days ago, Frengo, who said that he had an urgent matter and hoped to contact you immediately."

"Yes, but you tell me in advance, is it because one of his grandchildren has a problem, or is there a conflict between the people of their tribe and the people in our territory?" When Franco suddenly asks to meet, Rand thinks something is unusual, so he asks if there is a conflict.

"No, it's Neil who has taken him these days, and the ankylosaurus of their tribe is stationed in the Dragon Knights, and is taken care of by Guchraf"

Soon Rand met Frengo, the tribal leader who had crossed the mountains from Kirislav, in front of the magic mirror, with a different sense of vicissitudes, and some traces of chilblains on his face had not completely disappeared.

"Uncle...... Lord Rand, today I met the talkable Tapara Frost Wolf" Frengo was obviously very hesitant when he spoke, and seemed to have no face to face Rand, "She asked me for the gift that she was supposed to bring you, I thought about it, I was afraid that she would use that gift to do something unfavorable to you, so I came to contact you." ”

"If it's too embarrassing for you, don't tell me, Tapala won't take what belongs to me for no reason," Rand said with a smile, he really didn't believe that the tribal leader in front of him could have any good gifts.

……

In the Frostwolf Forest, the snowy Detapara was walking through the woodland, and after crossing the east-west galloping tributary, the tribe of wolf barbarians and orcs was noticeably reduced, and occasionally there was still a trace of a former camp, and those charred black lands had been tribal camps a few days ago.

"Woo~" The frost wolf let out a wolf howl while running, and occasionally a few responses from the same clan, all of which were ten kilometers away to the north.

Less than 5 kilometers in the direction of the frostwolf's advance, a nine-man group of knights was searching the woods, led by a high-ranking knight and a high-ranking mage.

"Be careful, two days ago, a patrol was attacked by a demonic beast in the forest, Mentor Belikov said that his war bear is very hungry and needs demonic beast meat!"

"Captain, don't worry, we've been fighting hungry wolves for half a month, when have we ever suffered a loss!" The mid-level knight in the patrol smiled, "If you want me to say, Count Larzan is still too cautious, and the bandits here are not threatening at all. ”
