026 A new look for the floating island
The next day.
The spells that the king had prepared that morning were all used to deal with the sudden battle during the expedition. After all, after the fairy bean tasting meeting in the morning, the preparations for the take-off of the floating island are almost completed, and the island can be flown up and start to enter the exploration stage.
After making preparations, Wang went to the ground through the elevator.
As soon as I came up, I saw the towering mast.
It was the Monrovia merchant ship Indomitable that had been moved to the island in its entirety, and it was on this ship that the Acantro Federation team arrived on the floating island.
Now the Indomitable has become a storage warehouse for materials on the floating island, which is full of important and moisture-sensitive materials. For example, iron nails that were removed from a ship or something.
A hole was made in the bottom of the Indomitable ship, and a door was made, and two Pelican Gang men stood by the door, one on the left and one on the right.
Opposite the Indomitable is the captain's cabin of the new Asterisk, which has been moved to the floating island in its entirety.
Originally, Wang moved this thing, because he was reluctant to live in the internal space where the salvation team could live together. But after moving this thing, Rosalie calculated that it could fit ten families of survivors with children, and decisively applied to Wang to turn it into a "dwelling".
As a result, the island had its first "Chrono Dwelling", which refers to the dwelling using permanent space compression magic.
The space between the Indomitable and the "parts" of the new Star Chaser is the planned central boulevard of the floating island.
The foundation of the avenue is the road of the original Cyclops ruins, and now except for some remnants of green bricks, it is almost impossible to see the appearance of the road.
Walk along the planned avenue and immediately see the stacks on the island.
After a week's work, the stacks were full of wood that had been dismantled from the ship, and in time it should turn into houses on the island.
After the stack, there is a house built with the bottom of the boat buckled to the ground, and one such "houseboat" can live in many households.
Thanks to the houseboats, most of the tents on the island have been dismantled, but half of the people still live in tents.
Further down the avenue is the island's water storage facility, because it had rained only yesterday, the huge pond has been filled, and there are soldiers standing next to it.
It is said to prevent naughty children from peeing into the pool.
The king inspected this point and decided to turn around, because further on was the "compost" area.
He really didn't want to go near this area.
The feces in the mage tower will be quickly decomposed into various useful things by the decomposition device, such as phosphate fertilizer or something, and there is no problem such as foul odor at all.
But there is no such technology here, and the composting area has always had an impressive smell.
That, after all, was the excrement of nearly 2,000 people.
According to Rosalie's report, in order to collect the excrement from the toilets every day, she arranged for 10 workers to pick up the excrement on a full-time basis.
At this time, the survivors did not receive wages for their work, and Rosalie came to ask the king how to reward these dung pickers, after all, their work was the hardest, most tiring and dirtiest.
Wang's final decision was to reward the families of the dung diggers for living in the best dwelling on the island to date: the original captain's quarters of the New Star.
The king had not walked a few steps back from the front of the compost area when he saw a manure picker. The workers hurriedly avoided some distance before they put down the dung buckets they had picked up on their shoulders and saluted the king.
"Good work." The king waved to the workers.
The workers just laughed and didn't dare to answer.
After bidding farewell to the dung pickers, Wang walked a few more steps and saw a "civilian unit" on a floating island approaching from a distance.
At first, the king was worried that the ancient golems had bulldozed what the islanders had worked so hard to build.
After all, the Golem's mission is to maintain the island's Cyclops architecture, and during the Cyclops Empire, humans were considered slaves with two eyes. How dare a mere slave desecrate the master's masterpiece?
But for some reason, the golem ignores human creation.
Possibly - the golem judged that humans built these things on the orders of slave owners?
After all, how can a mere slave dare to build something on the island casually without the order of the slave owner, right?
Anyway, now the golem is basically integrated into the lives of the island's residents.
The golem that the king saw had two little children hanging on it.
The little kid riding on the golem's neck shouted, "Lord of the city! Walking? ”
Wang waved his hand: "Yes, walk." Don't climb so high, be careful of falling. ”
The little kid patted his chest: "It's okay, I learned two tricks from Master Liguang!" ”
Wang smiled.
After the golem passed, Elizabeth appeared.
"You really like to walk around the island in the morning." She laughed.
Wang: "I don't know why, but looking at the current appearance of the island, I actually feel a sense of accomplishment.
"When I was in the Mage Tower, I had a senior brother who liked to make all kinds of miniature landscapes, and then he became smaller and ran into the miniature landscapes to visit. I didn't understand him then, and now I ...... I kind of understand. ”
Elizabeth walked side by side with the king: "It shows that you are gradually getting used to the role of the city lord." You are aware of your responsibility to them, and at the same time you take the improvement of their lives as your own merit. ”
Wang: "Is that so?" ”
"Yes. However, the living conditions on the island are not even comparable to the shack area of Repulse City. The lord of the castle will continue to work hard. ”
Wang: "I also want everyone to live in a sturdy and comfortable brick house as soon as possible, but it's not impossible. Let's put up with it in a wooden house. Is it Rosalie in front? ”
Elizabeth looked up and sighed, "It's her." Really, she's so well-informed, I just walked a few steps with you when she came. ”
Rosalie had already approached, and when she heard Elizabeth's words, she immediately said, "I have not come to spoil your walk with the king, but I have come to tell the king that the fairy beans have been harvested, and we are about to start promoting the fairy beans to the inhabitants." ”
Wang: "Got it. How to promote it? ”
As if she had already prepared, Rosalie took out a sticky note: "You really don't have an idea, just follow this thought." ”
Wang took the sticky note paper and read out the words on it: "This is the fairy bean, a magical creation that does not go hungry for a day, from the magic tower of the traveling mage!" I don't tell him about ordinary people! ”
Elizabeth snorted and laughed, "Something, it sounds like a lame slogan." ”
Rosalie: "That's the crappy propaganda slogan, I improvised, I improvised. If you're not satisfied, think of a good one for yourself! ”
**
"This is the fairy bean, a magical creation that does not go hungry for a day, from the Traveling Mage's Magic Tower! I don't tell him about ordinary people! Standing on the podium, the king announced aloud to the gathered residents.
Xiaobai: "It's, it's delicious!" ”
Flint: "Isn't that a little too pompous?" ”
Xiao Bai glared at him and whispered, "You care about me, say the words!" ”
Flint: "Ah! Fairy beans! Kaylin begged me on my knees that I wouldn't give it to Him! For the sake of fairy beans, I would rather blaspheme! ”
After speaking, the dwarf's expression was very subtle, as if the last sentence was not from his original intention.
Gortrek: "High! ”
Elizabeth next to her whispered to Rosalie, "You wrote all the words?" ”
Rosalie: "I didn't write the 'blasphemy' paragraph. I added it myself. ”
She paused, looked at the dwarf's expression, and changed her words, "I don't know if Kailin herself manipulated him." ”
Elizabeth was about to say something, but Rosalie patted her on the back: "It's your turn!" ”
So Elizabeth walked up to the viewing platform and ate a fairy bean with a pompous gesture: "Ah, fairy bean! I am more beautiful because of you! ”
Rosalie muttered in the audience, "You don't write much better words than I do!" ”
Wang: "Come on, let's try the fairy beans!" Delicious food just for our floating island! One a day, no tiredness a day! ”
Boss Hashir in the audience shouted: "Don't give me nonsense, one every morning, and then go to work!" ”
The people of the Salvation Squad looked at Hashir together.
Flint: "Why do I think our pompous performance is not as good as her old voice?" ”
Someone in the Pelican Gang below echoed: "It was meant to be! ”
In any case, the problem of rations on the floating islands was temporarily solved.
