Chapter 288: Golden Autumn October
"This is the Duke Sage Mage Tower, Lord Duke Sage, it is here that the Great Brand Ring and the Great Spirit Rhino Ring were invented!"
The beautiful female arcane mage, Alyssa Moon Falcon, faces the camera, and introduces the magnificent mage tower behind her in a tone of adoration and excitement.
The camera follows the direction of her finger, looking down on the Duke Sage Mage Tower standing on the top of the hill.
She beckoned gently: "Let's go, let's go to Sanhai University at the foot of Lingya Mountain first, which is the first university in the Seven Towers Federation to train students." Five years of primary school, three years of middle school, three years of university, and 11 years of complete educational experience are enough to train any student to become a talent! ”
The camera follows Alyssa Moon Falcon, constantly wandering around Sanhai University in Lingya Mountain, teaching buildings, laboratory buildings, accommodation buildings, canteens, grasslands......
Soon.
The camera switches to the castle, and Alyssa Moon Falcon changes into a milky white dress, and the whole person looks holy and charming.
"Lingya Mountain Castle, which is home to many arcane mages, all of whom work in the Duke Sage Mage Tower...... Professor, Associate Professor, Assistant Professor...... Special Researcher, Senior Researcher, Intermediate Researcher, Junior Researcher...... Everyone can find their place in the Mage Tower. ”
Walking along the castle path, there are spiritual plants everywhere.
It's a garden castle.
Soon Alyssa Moon Falcon arrived at the Duke Sage Mage's Tower, ascended the spirit ladder, and began to introduce the laboratories on each floor.
"This is the laboratory of the Giant of Light Artifact Company...... This is the laboratory of DreamWorks Films, and by the way, our documentary recording of "Duke Sage Mage Tower" is DreamWorks Productions...... Okay, now let's interview the researchers. ”
After the interview.
Alyssa Moon took a deep breath and made a nervous look: "Next, I'm going to visit Duke Sage, wow, I'm finally going to meet my idol!" ”
The next moment.
Mula Li appeared on the scene, with a melon seed face, a water snake waist, and a beautiful temperament that was not lost to Alyssa, the arcane mage, and her voice was sweet and glutinous: "Hello, Lady Alyssa, I am Mulali, the assistant of Duke Sage, your appointment time has arrived, please come with me." ”
"Okay, thanks."
Following Mulari, Alyssa Moonfalcon beckoned lightly and led the camera into Duke's exclusive office on the one hundred and first floor.
The office is large, but the decoration is not gorgeous, but rather plain.
However, like Lingya Mountain Castle, the office was decorated with spiritual plants everywhere, as if it was not entering the office, but entering a large garden.
Turning around, I came to a glass-enclosed greenhouse.
The handsome and handsome Duke is facing away from the camera at the moment, staring at something in front of the greenhouse.
Mulali called softly, "Sir, Alyssa Moon Falcon has brought it." ”
Duke turned his head.
Glancing at the camera, he smiled elegantly and gently: "Welcome, Alyssa Moonfalcon, I remember you are the daughter of Baron Edwin Moonfalcon." ”
"Ah, yes, yes." Alyssa Moon Falcon stumbled a little like a little fan girl, "My father asked me to say hello to you. ”
Edwin Moon Falcon is the Moon Falcon of Gale Town, a 3-ring arcane mage, and serves as the director of the Elemental Tower of Shen Jiao City.
After the politeness.
Alyssa Moon Falcon began to ask Duke, "What were you looking at, Lord Sage?" This looks like a greenhouse? ”
"I'm looking at a vision of the future." Duke smiled and responded, "In this greenhouse that simulates the climate of a tropical rainforest, I have planted a heart of oak, which is an oak tree that failed to break through the 3rd ring, the remaining seed of life. ”
"Did it sprout, then?"
"Not yet, I've tried a lot of things, but I haven't found a way to make it sprout. But it doesn't matter, sooner or later it will sprout, because I've seen the power of the heart of oak that has the potential to change the future. Duke seemed to be babbling a little dabbling.
Alyssa Moon Falcon asked curiously, "Do you know what kind of future it is?" ”
"If nothing else, it's about the future of Qi Sea cultivation, and in the future I speculate, Qi Sea Monks, also known as Spirit Plant Envoys, can draw power from plants and evolve a variety of abilities, rather than simply planting crops."
"Wow, can Spirit Plant Envoys also gain combat power?"
"Quite possibly." Duke smiled, "Of course, it's just a speculation, and the specific content will take a long time to experiment." ”
The oaks of the Assiba tribe have not opened the three seas, but their strength can reach the level of 1 ring or even 2 rings.
If they thoroughly studied the way they drew power from acorns, they might really be able to make the Spirit Planter, who could only grow crops, gain combat power comparable to that of a great knight.
After chatting for a while, I didn't.
The camera cuts to the sofa chair in the office, where Alyssa Moonfalcon's legs are together, her body is straight, and she falls on it with half of her ass in a straight posture.
Duke leaned back in his chair casually, crossing his legs.
"Lord Sage, Cuihai City is newly built, what kind of plan do you have for the city as the chief consul of the United Tower. If people want to settle here, what kind of benefits can they enjoy, and what kind of opportunities can they get? ”
These lines are all drawn up in advance.
Duke naturally has a copy here, and the corresponding lines, without the help of a teleprompter, Xiaoyi directly projected the full text on the Douqi holographic screen.
"Many people know my origins, I was born in the town of Sheshou, not far from Cuihai City, where my parents were killed in the Pioneer War. To be honest, I don't know if my parents died from spirit animals or from infighting. ”
Duke's tone was flat, but he seemed sincere: "So after I came to power, the first thing I did was to make sure that Cuihai City was the safest city possible...... I organized a team of knights here and patrolled the periphery of the city for a long time...... I strictly forbid infighting between mercenary groups, even in the forest! ”
He talked a lot about security.
We are committed to creating the lowest crime rate in the city, ensuring that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment, without having to worry about it all day.
Then he talked about the scarcity of talents in all walks of life in Cuihai City, there are too many jobs to provide, as long as you immigrate and settle in Cuihai City, you can have a good life.
"I, Duke, are with my hometown of Cuihai, and I will try to build it into a paradise." Duke said solemnly.
"I believe in you, and you can do it." Alyssa Moonfalcon's eyes twinkled with little stars.
So far.
The documentary "Duke Sage Mage Tower" comes to an end, and in Alyssa's narration, aerial photos of Cuihai City are accompanied by subtitles.
"Cuihai City welcomes your arrival, let you and I work together to build a beautiful home!"
……
Django helped his wife Natalie, took their two children, Jiang Wanda and Jiang Tro, got out of the black beetle car, and looked at the skyline of Cuihai City not far away.
I suddenly remembered the documentary "Duke Sage Mage Tower".
It was only after watching this documentary, which was screened for free at the Phantom Opera House in the morning of the town, that he became interested in the immigrants from Cuihai City promoted by the mercenary group.
In the end, I decided to drag my family and come to this newly built city to start a new life.
He believed that Duke, who had become a prophet, would not deceive innocent people, after all, this was also Duke's hometown.
And now, it's finally here.
"Please don't mess up, don't crowd, we are the staff of the internal resettlement team of the Cuihai City United Tower, and we will be responsible for your food, clothing, housing and transportation for the next period of time." A kind woman shouting with a loudspeaker.
Draw the attention of Django's family to the past.
Immediately, another woman in a white coat also shouted: "Are you sick, are you sick, Cuihai City Hospital has sent a special car to take everyone to the hospital for free treatment, and if you are sick, treat it as soon as possible, otherwise it will get worse and worse." ”
Since there was a period of time before, many immigrants died of illness on the way, or died of illness in Cuihai City.
The United Tower urgently cooperated with Cuihai City Hospital and started the treatment work.
And signed a contract with the major mercenary groups to ensure that no one died on the way to immigration, and for this reason, a large number of 1-ring arcane cards - healing cards - the ring of imprints technology has matured, and there is a spiritual card industrial park in the city, and the price of the healing card has been greatly reduced.
However, the treatment card has a miraculous effect on external injuries, but the effect on the disease is not good, and it can only barely hang the patient.
Eventually, you will need to go to the hospital for treatment.
"I'm me, my wife is sick!" Django immediately raised his hand, then squeezed through the crowd and put his wife, Natalie, in the hospital ambulance.
"The hospital has limited space, and only one escort is allowed for a patient, so you decide who will accompany you?" The nurse in the car asked.
Django looked at the two children and decisively pushed his eldest daughter Jiang Wanda into the car: "My daughter Jiang Wanda, she can take care of Natalie." ”
"Okay, register here."
"Well, my wife and daughter went to the hospital, how can I find them?" Django held his son tightly with one hand.
His son, Jiang Tro, beckoned to the wind-bladed gray wolf skin lying on the pile of luggage not far away.
Pipsqueak rolled his eyes and ignored Giantro.
"You go with the resettlement team first, arrange the temporary accommodation, and then come to the hospital to visit. Oh yes, not only is the treatment in the hospital free, but the food expenses for patients and escorts are also provided by the United Tower, so you don't have to bear it. ”
Leaning on her daughter Jiang Wanda's shoulder, Natalie waved her hand weakly: "Django, you take care of your son, I have Jiang Wanda by my side, and it will be fine." ”
Cuihai City's arrangements are very thoughtful, she has suppressed the panic and anxiety in her heart, and has a good impression of this strange city.
"Well, wait for me!" Django nodded.
With his son and Pippi, he soon loaded his luggage into a large truck under the command of the staff and drove out of the station.
Speeding all the way through the streets, the gorgeous light and shadow screens make people overwhelmed.
Tree-lined and gardens all over the place.
As the name suggests, Cuihai City seems to be a city built in a sea of greenery, far more green than his hometown city he has visited.
Of course.
The city has not really been built, and there are still large barren vacant lots between the streets, waiting to be built.
But Django didn't find these wastelands unsightly, because he knew that his family's future might lie in one of these wastelands.
Soon, the truck was parked under a building.
"When the immigration apartment building arrived, everyone got off the bus in an orderly manner, brought their luggage, and controlled the spirit beast with me. We were in apartment complex 3 and when we got to the place, someone would give us the keys, and each family would receive a key. ”
The staff held loudspeakers and skillfully maintained the immigrant team, a job she has been doing for half a year.
"Where are we eating?"
"Do I need to re-apply for these spirit cards when I turn back the spirit dragon card?"
"My old mother is still in the hospital, when can I visit in the hospital?"
The immigrants spoke with different accents and asked questions, but fortunately, although the accents were different, they were still Taven after all, and they could still be heard clearly if they were careful.
"Go to the dormitory first, and when the dormitory is divided, there will be staff to take you to go through various procedures, and in a day or two at the latest, you will be able to live normally in Cuihai City." Once you're settled, you'll be able to move out of the building. ”
Two days passed.
Django has gone through all the formalities of settling in, the staff of the Union Tower, and has also registered his information, ready to recommend him for a job.
Leaving Pippi to look after the house, he took his son Jiang Tro and hurried to Cuihai City Hospital.
His wife, Natalie, has improved significantly after treatment. Daughter Jiang Wanda changed into a nurse's uniform, she was hired as a temporary nurse at the nurse station, with a salary of 20 copper dragons a day, and she could get 3 silver dragons a month.
"Jiang Wanda, you don't have to fight so hard." Django looked at his daughter and said, "Daddy is going to have a job soon, you have to go to school." ”
"I'm just making a little bit of pocket money." Jiang Wanda has his own ideas.
"Well, I inquired, the middle school in Cuihai City has a summer vacation that ends in early September, so you can only work part-time until the end of August."
"Thank you, Dad!"
Jiang Wanda left happily and went to work at the nurse's station.
Django put his arm around Natalie and said with a smile, "The resettlement team here recommended a few jobs for me. ”
He will work one by one: "One is to work at the outpost, I have Pippi to investigate, the position is very suitable for me, 50 silver dragons a month is really not low." One is to work for the Knights of Peace, supervising the security of the streets, and only 30 silver dragons a month, but it is said that the subsidy is very high. ”
There is also a knightly guard for a mage tower, and a patrol knight for an industrial park.
"Which way do you want to go?" Natalie asked.
"The outpost and the security knights, I can't make up my mind, the outpost has a high salary, and the security knights have a high subsidy." Django was a little tangled.
"Then let's go to the Knights of Peace, be safe." Natalie immediately said, "The outpost is too dangerous, and you have to face the spirit beast head-on." ”
"However, Pipsqueak and I don't go through some grinding, I'm afraid it's ......," Django smiled bitterly as he spoke, "I don't mention my talent, then go to work in the Knights of Security and train Jiang Wanda and Jiang Tro well." ”
Natalie nodded, "You can help me keep an eye on whether there is a job that suits me." ”
"Don't worry, the resettlement team will arrange everything, and when you are discharged from the hospital, you will definitely find a good job." Django exclaimed, "Only when I came to Cuihai City did I know that it was as good as advertised, and this will be our new home in the future." ”
"yes, new home......" Natalie was in a trance.
Until now, she is still a little unbelievable, her family has crossed thousands of miles, come to the unfamiliar realm of wind breath, the unfamiliar Heijiao River, and the unfamiliar Cuihai City, and start a strange new life.
If there are no major changes in this life.
I'm afraid that I will never go to my hometown again, so I can only stay in Cuihai City for the rest of my life.
She turned her head and looked out the window of the ward, where she could see the towering five towers of the inner city, with the Union Tower in the center and the other four towers guarding the Union Tower in a diamond shape.
"Django, is Lord Duke the Prophet in that tallest tower?" Somehow, at the mention of Duke, the panic in her heart dissipated.
Django nodded: "It should be, Master Duke Prophet is the chief consul of the United Tower, but I heard that Lord Duke Prophet does not go to the Union Tower very often, and he spends most of his time in the Duke Sage Mage Tower studying great things." ”
He didn't know much about the Ring of Spirits, and he only knew a little bit about the Ring of Branding, which in his eyes belonged to great things.
Natalie snorted, and the apprehension in her heart completely dissipated.
Living in the same city with the Prophet was truly reassuring.
It is precisely because of the existence of Duke that this Cuihai City will become a city trusted and expected by the people in the Federation of Seven Towers.
……
Golden autumn October.
Duke personally travels to the Cuihai City Flying Station to greet the arrival of a warship.
"Chief Director Thea, welcome to you, and Winona Firefly Candle, also welcome to Cuihai City." Duke greeted with a smile.
Escorted by the knights, Thea Firefly and her great-granddaughter, Winona Firefly, boarded the large shuttle prepared by Duke.
"There's Prophet Lauduke, who came to pick him up in person." Thea Firefly smiled in response.
She sat with her great-granddaughter, looking like a pair of sisters, the only Morning Star Arcane Mentor among the forty-eight stars of the Seven Towers Federation.
The other stars are still young despite their physical functions and even appearance, but their hair, eyebrows, and beards will still turn white.
And some subtle features, it will still show old age.
Only Thea Firefly Candle, every detail is not abnormal with a young man, and even her demeanor is like a young man.
Because Thea Firefly was a secret operation and was not made public, after the shuttle arrived at the Duke Sage Mage Tower, Duke did not notify any outsiders, but only asked the teacher Suktara to come over to meet him, and then gave him a brief reception.
After meals.
Suktara took Winona Firefly's hand and said with a smile, "Duke, I'll arrange Winona's academic training, and you can take Thea-sama to take a good look around Cuihai City." ”
Duke snapped his fingers, summoned the Tower Spirit Pheasant Feather, and said to Winona Firefly: "This is the Tower Spirit Pheasant Feather, if you have any needs, you can call it directly, it has all the permissions of the Duke Sage Mage Tower." ”
Pheasant Feather does not have the ability of the Shell Sage of the Offa Tower, but he has enough ability to be the grand steward of the Duke Sage Mage Tower.
Subsequently.
Duke takes Thea Firefly Candle on a shuttle ride around Cuihai City.
After chatting a few words from time to time, he slowly became familiar with it, and the information about Thea Firefly was also displayed on Duke's Douqi holographic screen.
As the 7-Ringed Morning Star Arcane Mentor, Thea Firefly is 260 years old this year.
After serving as the chief director of Offata, he was basically an idle position, and he was usually responsible for some diplomatic academic exchanges.
He often travels to various countries.
Her husband has been dead for many years, and it is worth mentioning that her husband, Wifsky, is not from the Seven Towers Federation, but from Mercenary City.
Mercenary City is a regime formed by a group of arcane mercenaries, located in the Endless Sea, which is tentatively known as the Great Western Sea.
In her early years, when Thea Firefly served as an Arcane Aid Legion, she traveled to the Endless Seas to hunt wurms in them, and met and quickly fell in love with Wefsky. After the war, the two returned to live in the Seven Towers Federation.
It's a pity that Wefsky was only a Grand Arcian mage, and he was not young at the time.
So the married life didn't last long, and Wifsky died.
Later, Thea Firefly gave the title of the family to her descendants, and continued her husband Wifsky's "Wei", which gave her name Winona Firefly Candle.
It is said that the Hotaru Candle family objected to Thea Hotaru Candle handing over the title to outsiders, and even the surname was inherited by outsiders.
There was a stir in the Holy City of Ofa for a while.
But going against a Morning Star is obviously not a good idea.
All in all, the Firefly family has become Thea Firefly's exclusive family, and the descendants are all inherited from her and Wefsky's bloodline.
"With Thea Firefly's achievements, it's easy to start a family of earls by yourself, so why do you have to snatch the earl of fireflies? Could it be that the title of Earl of Firefly Candle is very commemorative for her? Duke didn't understand Thea Hotaru's approach.
However, he was just thinking about it in his heart, the truth had long been buried over time, and the direct bloodline of the Firefly Candle family probably no longer existed.
There is no point in discussing the original dispute again.
"Firefly candles don't sound very good, or my Ring of Branding, Ring of Spirit Rhino is better, Duke Brand, Duke Spiritrhino...... Well, Duke Guangming is still good-sounding, and when I am interested in being knighted one day, I will be called Duke Guangming...... Well, it doesn't seem to work. ”
The knights of the Seven Towers Federation are basically old arcane mages who choose to start a family.
And the founder of the title itself does not bear a noble surname, because the authority of the founder does not come from the surname, but from himself.
For example, Bernoulli founded the Black Jade family, but he is still called Bernoulli, but his sons and grandchildren have the surname Black Jade, and future generations will take Black Jade as their surname.
"Even if I am knighted, I still have to be called Duke!"
Duke was a little deserted.
However, this does not prevent him from chatting with Thea Firefly from time to time, and Duke himself is not a person of many words, and Thea Firefly does not talk much.
Wait until the shuttle is done walking around Cuihai City.
Thea Firefly commented on the new city: "The world is vast, and there is a lot to be done. ”
"It's really promising, Cuihai City is a frontier land, and it's in the west of the Seven Towers Federation." Duke said with a smile, "I don't think I'm going to be blocked by the Great West Sea anytime soon, and I think there's still a lot of land to explore." ”
"You don't agree with the four seas?" Thea Hotaru raised an eyebrow.
The theory of the four seas has become a popular academic argument in recent years, and most of the arcane mages believe that the wild continent has been almost exploited by humans.
In addition to the Great Beihai is still invisible, the Great East Sea, the Great South China Sea, and the Great West Sea have all been determined.
"It's just my personal intuition, I think that even if there is the Great West Sea, there is still a vast land beyond the four seas waiting to be explored." Duke said.
Thea Firefly smiled indifferently and said with emotion: "I spent a long time in the Endless Sea in my early years, where the islands stretched endlessly, but except for the islands, they were still just islands, and the further west they went, the stronger the storm became, and it was difficult for even the arcane mages to cross. ”
"So west of the storm, you're not sure what it is?"
"I can't be sure, the Great East China Sea continues to the east, and there are also raging storms, and south of the Great South China Sea, there are also raging storms. These storms are spiritually powerful enough to tear the heavens and the earth apart, and I, as the Arcane Teacher, need to be in awe. ”
Duke suddenly thought of something and asked, "With your knowledge, Chief Director, do you think that humans originated from the Knight's Source Island?" ”
"I don't know."
"If it really originated from the Knight's Source Island, then how could the earliest humans who were just ordinary knights be able to cross such a dangerous storm and reach the Wild Continent?" Duke shook his head, "Maybe we were born on this continent. ”
It occurred to him that the Asiba tribe, the oak people might have inhabited the depths of the Wild Continent.
They are indigenous, and human beings may be indigenous.
It was only when human beings tapped the power of spiritual arcane law and opened the three seas to evolve that they became the human beings they are now.
And the natives of the Aciba tribe only get a trace of the power in the acorn, so they will evolve into an acorn like a slender bamboo pole.
But he soon suppressed the thought again.
The secrets of the Asiba tribe cannot be revealed for the time being, and everything about the Duke Star needs to be kept secret until he has enough strength to deal with the crisis of the Sinking Demon.
