Chapter 644 Transition

In the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.

The whole of Britain seems to be really crumbling, and the building is about to fall. After all, the former kingdom has completely collapsed, not even as simple as being torn apart, but completely wiped out all at once.

All the savings and background, including the former nobles and princes, and the most elite soldiers have been completely exhausted in the Battle of Kamran.

So much so that in the face of the barbarian aggression, Britain is now unable to organize any decent resistance at all. Although Artoria is running around, and even spread the legend of the Knight Princess because of this, she can't do anything by herself. Might be busy.

The result is a matter of course, she can't save everyone.

But it is precisely because of this that the legends caused by her running around did not attract anyone's attention. Even the foreign peoples who came across the sea didn't care too much about it, thinking that maybe the British island was left behind. The last stubborn resistance of some of the knights.

This kind of thing happened from time to time, or it happened everywhere, because there were always some stubborn knights who were unwilling to accept the reality and submit to colonial rule, so they launched a rather tenacious resistance.

But such a small setback was within the expectations of the Saxons. They did not expect to be able to swallow the entire island at once, even if King Arthur died suddenly and Camelot fell apart all of a sudden. good thing.

It's pretty good now--

They can fight steadily, step by step, gradually encroach on the territory of the British people, seize their arable land, occupy their forests and rivers, until the British people are completely wiped out.

As for the sporadic resistance that they will encounter, this is a very normal thing, but those so-called knights who are so stubborn can't make any waves at all. Anyway, the strongest round tables have already fallen apart.

As long as you don't meet the kind of heroes who surpass human beings, those superpowers who have the protection of the holy sword and can single-handedly defeat the legendary dragons and demon pigs, then there will be no problems.

Compared with the precarious and chaotic Britain as a whole, what stands in sharp contrast is the new hope that is bred in the depths of the island.

It is an undeveloped wilderness inside the island, because the dangerous geographical environment has become a natural protective barrier, so neither the current Saxons nor the British before have set foot in this area. area.

And without anyone noticing, the Kingdom of Camelot, which was being reborn from the ashes, was being rebuilt here in full swing.

Although there is currently only one town with a scale of over [-] people, no one would think that it is the prototype of a new kingdom... However, this is the truth, and it is also the so-called "orthodox" beyond doubt.

But in this era, Merlin, the only flower magician who can clearly see this matter because he can see through the present clairvoyance, is currently being imprisoned in Avalon. sentenced to life imprisonment without appeal.

In the foreseeable future, I don't know how long it will take before I can have a chance to get out of trouble.

In addition, he didn't care at all, didn't think about what to do, just watched with pure curiosity, so in this era, there is no one who can stop this from happening.

……

……

In a certain forest outside the new city, a brick-burning factory near a clay mine was operating at full capacity, and thick black smoke was rising continuously.

With the help of the workers, George worked hard to carry the solid and solid bricks, quickly filled them into the cargo box behind a freight carriage, and then quickly sat on the driver's seat and picked up the reins .

The strong pack horse quickly pulled the carriage forward and drove forward along the flat road. He looked back at the brick-burning factory that was emitting black smoke, and after thinking about it, he felt that he should not use it every day Tell your son every time.

That kid wasn't so stupid yet, he was still very clever all the time.

Feeling relieved, he also resolutely said nothing, and drove away without looking back.

He was originally just a farmer in a remote village, but his skills have become a little rusty in the past few years. Because of years of hard work, the barren land seems to be unable to grow anything, which is really very desperate.

I had no choice but to enter the forest and become a hunter. Although I was still unsecured and unstable, an unstable income was better than a stable income. In addition, the king had been buying food from Europe through the Knights of the Lake, and the family was struggling. survived.

After that, the situation didn’t get any better. First, there were rumors of the princess’s infidelity, and then Lancelot, the Knight of the Lake, treacherously. After that, Camelot, who was not very good, seemed to be cursed, and kept walking. downhill.

What happened next basically goes without saying. The legend of the King of Knights was ended, the kingdom fell apart, and Britain as a whole fell into the turmoil of blood and fire again.When the village was slaughtered and destroyed, George and his son were rescued by the knight Ji, who was like a magic soldier from heaven.

He couldn't describe his gratitude to that knight girl in words, just like he couldn't describe in words what kind of unparalleled skills the other party used to easily slaughter all the Saxons at that time.

In short, George and his son finally chose to come to the deepest part of the island like other villagers, and started their lives again.

He originally thought that this would be a very difficult journey, everything would need to start all over again, leaving civilization, drinking blood like a savage.But as long as you can get away from the flames of war and stay away from those bandit races that come across the sea, it's worth it.

It's just that it may really be the end of all hardships, and from then on, it seems that everything started to get better.

That powerful knight girl seems to be the lord of this place. With the assistance of a wise magician, she manages everything in a neat and orderly manner, whether it is a spacious road, Or a clean ground, or a tidy house...

Whether it is already built, is being reclaimed, or just started to plan, it can make people feel that the lord has already made arrangements, and thus makes people gain unspeakable hope.

Everyone has arrangements, even the disabled can do some work within their ability, and they will not be abandoned if they say that they are worthless.Of course, in this case, no one dares to try to be lazy and slippery.

It takes a lot of brainlessness to strive to be the first person to eat crabs in this kind of thing.

After a short training and surprise training, George was assigned to manage a recently built brick-burning factory because he was quick and proficient. He and his son worked diligently and led a group of workers to produce bricks at full capacity every day. piece.

There are many people like him, who have been assigned to various novel jobs, not only in brick-burning factories, but also in sawmills, smelters and so on. He never thought that there would be so many novelties s things.

Moreover, things in the production field can be centralized through a unit like a "factory", and then the production is planned in a unified manner, and various materials are allocated and dispatched. This is something he had never thought of before.

However, the effect is very significant. After all, it is only by concentrating strength that major events can be accomplished. During this period of time, although the population of the town has just exceeded [-], the productivity that has erupted has directly surpassed any big city-state in Britain in the past.

Although George doesn't quite understand this, he can also feel the thriving vitality from the bottom of his heart, and because of this, he is more motivated to devote himself to construction and production, and race against time to build a beautiful home.

He didn't know a lot of things, and he didn't understand them, so he found them very novel, but he was able to see the changes in the town day by day, the scale was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the supplies in all aspects were growing rapidly.

These are all places that can make people feel at ease, especially in this precarious era, it is even more commendable.

People's hearts and order are condensed bit by bit like this.

But George also knows that those novel things that he doesn't understand often have a great effect, just like the bricks and cement he is responsible for can be used to build a stronger and stronger house.

The same goes for other things, the master magician who is in charge of everything naturally has his uses.

Just like the magic puppets called "golems" that have appeared recently, many of them are made of a large amount of clay and rocks mined by them. They are not only powerful, but also full of patience. They can be said to be the most ideal guards or puppets Worker.

As the carriage moved forward, the outline of the town surrounded by tall log fences could already be seen ahead, and George could just see a group of tall figures walking back and forth on the road ahead.

It is those magic puppets called "golems". Their number has been increasing since their appearance, and they have begun to take over the most arduous related work, such as road construction and mining, which greatly increases their efficiency.

At the beginning, George still felt very distrustful of these terrible puppets——

After all, with a body as high as three meters and materials, the weight alone can directly crush a horse, and the weight of a fist is close to a hundred pounds. The sturdy body is as hard as a stone, and can withstand the damage of swords and swords... …

If this kind of thing suddenly went crazy, it would be a disaster, and George's thoughts were normal, just like modern people's fear of certain machines.

But after discovering the efficiency of these magic puppets, everyone fell in love with these golems... After all, who doesn't like a working machine that can run continuously without complaining of pain or fatigue?

It is said that as long as there is one such golem, it is equivalent to adding the efficiency and speed of twenty people or seven mules at once.

It's a pity that this is a creation that the master magician can make. The average person probably has no chance to get such a magic puppet...

Driving past the group of golems and walking on a smoother road, George subconsciously looked at the plains on both sides of the city, and found that the reclaimed cultivated land was indeed much larger than what he saw the day before yesterday.

Many people and golems are busy digging ditches for irrigation, and miraculously, a large green area has appeared, and many wheat seedlings have grown out.
