Spring is going to summer, and the weather is getting hotter.

The construction of New Quint Town has been in full swing for more than two months.

In addition to his practice, Alan was busy planning municipal administration, supervising the construction of houses, and cultivating wasteland.

The face of the town has changed dramatically.

Streets, houses, town halls, wells, markets and warehouses have been built.

Facilities under construction, as well as defensive facilities such as city walls, barracks, and arrow towers.

Schools and libraries are also urgent, and children need to be educated.

On the outskirts of towns, the amount of construction is even greater.

The harbor and the lakeside each need a dock.

Lighthouses, dams, reservoirs and aqueducts are all under construction.

Watermills and windmills have been set up to provide free power to construction sites around the clock.

The map drawn by Allen before has been copied in many copies and distributed to all walks of life.

Based on the resource points listed on this map, a quarry, a lumberyard, a mining field, and a blacksmith shop were established in the town.

Farms and pastures are also in full swing to open up and cultivate.

Building a home is not all smooth sailing.

Field construction sites, often harassed by fierce beasts.

In the vicinity of the newly developed farm, there are also goblins who come to steal from time to time.

Alan can't tolerate these "monsters" getting in the way of his blueprint.

A militia regiment has been created in the town to maintain law and order.

Instructor Carter and Hunter Hunter, elected chief sheriff and militia leader, respectively, work together to train young militiamen.

Allen's old classmate Robin is now also a militia captain.

Ordinary beasts, small goblins, enough militia to cope.

However, I heard that there have been signs of ferocious wolf activity on the farm recently.

A ferocious wolf, a mutated beast.

The relationship with ordinary dogs is similar to that of rats to giant rats!

The intelligence level of the ferocious wolf is similar to that of the ordinary wild wolf, but it is larger and more ferocious.

The obscene little goblins actually domesticated a group of ferocious wolves to act as thugs.

Goblins are not to be feared, but riding a ferocious wolf and turning into a "wolf cavalry" can be a big difference in changing shotguns for guns!

Not so long ago, there was a clash between the militia regiment and the goblin wolf cavalry.

After a hard battle, they repelled this gang of bandits and paid a lot of losses.

Six militiamen were killed and five were seriously wounded.

The number of immigrants was already small, and the loss of six militiamen was a big blow.

Eren decided to take matters into his own hands and exterminate the goblin bandits!

Early the next morning, Allen led the militia to set off.

The entourage, in addition to Hunter and Robin father and son, Instructor Carter, also Kelly and Angel.

Armed to follow the tracks of goblins and ferocious wolves, the group gradually descended into the woods.

During the hunt, Kelly occasionally disappears alone for a while, and when she returns, she always has at least one big cat by her side.

This woodland is often infested with leopards and giant lynxes.

Alan asked her sister to keep an eye on these wild big cats, and cast spells to tame them.

Kelly was happy to be able to help her brother.

Following the militia regiment and wandering around the woods for two days, the tamed big cats have exceeded double digits.

Cheetahs, leopards, and lynxes, following her, a huge herd of mighty and magnificent!

Surrounded by big cats, Kelly is like a queen of the jungle!

Angel was very envious of Kelly's majesty.

She also has a cat-human ancestry, and after returning to her ancestors, she can communicate with the big cats in her heart.

But she didn't awaken to the magic of "turning beasts into friends", and the cold big cat may not be willing to listen to her command.

Angel is right behind Kelly's butt to help manage the big cat guard.

By rubbing Kelly's light, she got acquainted with the big cats.

Two days later, he was able to command the meow meow team to hunt everywhere and provide enough meat for the militia.

After three days of tracking, the militia finally found a goblin lair deep in the valley.

Rough shacks, damp caves, emitting a disgusting smell.

"It's hot, and it's time to clean up all this stinky garbage."

Allen issued the order lightly.

"Put a fire and burn it."

Countless rockets shot into the valley, and the goblin lair turned into a sea of fire.

In the smoke and flames, screams were heard from time to time.

There are one or two thousand goblins in the valley, to say the least.

It's too troublesome to pull them out and kill them one by one.

Fire attack is the best choice, followed by poison attack.

Alan finds the cave where the goblins are hiding and releases a "poison gas splash".

High-grade toxins are not worth wasting on goblins.

Alan can casually order a level 2 toxin, and he can take the goblins hiding in the hole in one pot, and the whole family will be neat and tidy.

In the sea of fire, there was a terrible wolf howl.

Alan raised his eyebrows, and his spirits were lifted.

Fierce wolf, has it finally appeared?

The goblin's screams and curses accompanied the wolf howl from far and near.

Nine black-haired wolves, each as big as a brown bear, each carrying a goblin, flew out of the sea of fire.

The militia regiment was on standby, under the command of Hunter and Carter, firing their bows and arrows.

Whew!

Three-stage shooting!

The goblins on the back of the wolf fell one after another under the rain of arrows.

Some are not dead yet, struggling to climb on the wolf's back.

The injured mount is already furious, turning his head and biting off the goblin neck!

Fierce wolves are indeed fierce!

However, no matter how fierce it is, it is at the level of a brown bear.

Nine wolves, three of which were killed by random arrows.

The other six, all of them wounded, were just right for the young militiamen to practice.

Kelly and Angel lead the Meow Meow team to press on the side.

When he found that the wolf had broken through the militia, he whistled and told the big cats to come forward and fill the gap.

Alan watched as the crowd hunted, sometimes using "water control" to artificially rain to extinguish the fire that was spreading beyond the valley.

Pick some wild fruits and eat them with grilled meat.

Meat and vegetarian combination, reasonable nutrition.

Alan was reluctant to roast the ferocious wolf and eat it.

The corpses of these mutated beasts, he still has them useful.

As the sun was about to set, the battle was over.

Nine ferocious wolves were hunted, and in the valley where the smoke was billowing out, there were still goblins running out.

Alan carried the carcass of the ferocious wolf to his tent.

Implant parasitic spores on the corpses of the wolves.

Within half an hour, all nine hungry wolves were reincarnated in the filthy soil and turned into "fungus beasts".

With the help of psychic spores, Eren can remotely control the fungus beast.

After Kelly and Anqi's "Meow Meow Team", the militia regiment has another "Paw Meow Team".

The ferocious wolf that has become a fungus beast can't roar like he did in life, and he is as quiet as a mushroom, but his combat effectiveness is not bad!

It can even be said that ...... Stronger than before death!

The Fungi have lost their fear of death and pain, and unless their heads or limbs are completely destroyed, they will follow Alan's orders and fight endlessly.

Instead of bringing the nine "fungus wolves" back to town, Alan had them patrol the valley and hunt down goblins that had slipped through the net.

After killing the goblins, the Hydra Wolf lurked in the woods near the farm, ready to answer the call of its master.

Allen intends to use them as a hidden reserve team, which may come in handy at a critical moment.

Kelly and Angel did not follow the militia back to town.

The sisters took the meow team and walked around the mountains.

"Angel and I have made a plan, spend half a month to thoroughly inspect this mountain forest!"

Kelly said to her brother excitedly.

"From now on, this is our territory."

"On my turf, there are no big cats that are not well-behaved!"

Boy! Queen Meow is ambitious!

Alan learns that his sister plans to subdue all the big cats in the forest, which is funny and thinks it is a good idea.

Tell An Qi to accompany her sister to cultivate in this mountain forest, and if she encounters any trouble, she will send him a message through the "Secret Law Mark" as soon as possible.

The strength of Angel and Kelly, coupled with the growing Meow Meow team, is enough to walk sideways in this mountain forest.

Alan also left two vials of spores for his sister and Angel, so that they could not waste their cultivation while subduing the group meows.

Kelly and Angel are already familiar with the assembly meditation method.

Even if Alan wasn't around, they could use the psychic spores to set up their own gatherings.

Kelly also enthusiastically gave her and Angel's meeting a name that she thought was very nice - Lily Tea Party.

Alan objected.

But it doesn't work.

……

During this time of hunting in the wild, Alan had a good time.

Back in town, however, the mood is not so beautiful.

The town of more than 3,000 people started from scratch, and there are endless trivial troubles every day.

These things, in order of trouble level.

Dad dealt with a large part of it.

Sola processed a small portion.

In the end, what was sent to Alan were two problems that neither Dad nor Sora could solve.

The newly rising immigrant town has finally attracted the attention of the "Dimen Fort".

Two days ago, an orc messenger riding a wolf arrived in town to deliver a message from his master.

The orc warlord "Flame Axe" Akira has ordered New Quint to pay heavy taxes!

The tax is levied on the basis of capitation, including babies and livestock, and those who can breathe are counted!

"The deadline is one month, and I must pay the full amount of taxes for the current year, otherwise I will do it myself and take everything I want."

That's what the orc warlord said, a naked threat!

The militia of New Quint is obviously unable to resist the raids of the orc army.

Turning to the Case family?

Ms. Sora privately tells Alan that the Keys are not strong enough to help New Gentry survive this catastrophe.

So who else can you turn to?

The answer can only be the Silvermoon Monastery.

The monastery approved the settlement of the settlement, which would theoretically also provide security for the immigrants.

Security isn't free.

Through the Case family, Ms. Sora has sent a letter of help to the Silvermoon Monastery.

The senior management of the monastery quickly replied.

Agree to send someone to protect the town, but with extra money!

Conservation agreements, signed annually, at a cost based on the town's population and economic situation.

Alan compared.

The "protection fee" charged by the monastery is actually similar to the "poll tax" issued by the orcs!

In the market where protection fees are collected, information is symmetrical.

The monastery knows the orc's price, and the orcs know the monastery's price.

Have the parties discussed it beforehand?

Alan didn't dare to say.

At least a tacit price alliance.

This also explains the question: why didn't the monastery completely eliminate the orc legions in the Underground Gate Fort?

Without the threat of orcs, will immigrants still pay protection money?

If you have the ability, you can settle the trouble yourself.

If you don't have the ability, then I'm sorry, please spend money to buy peace.
