Demon Lord

( ) Houdini's shock had its reasons.

No matter how powerful a country is, it has to face the most basic food problem. The foundation of economic development is to have enough food for people. As a high-ranking official in the Rahiman Kingdom, Houdini naturally understands the efforts made by the mages to increase food production all the time. Among them, artificial rainfall has always been a project that seems to be the best solution, but has not actually made a breakthrough so far.

This is also related to the climate of the Rahiman Kingdom. Because of the drought and lack of rain, irrigation is much more difficult than that of the Karen Kingdom, which is full of rivers. The floating tower consumes a lot of energy, although some people put forward the concept of using the floating tower to artificially rain , and it has been successfully tested in a small area, but because the cost of energy consumption is too high, it cannot be extended to the whole country.

However, such a difficult problem was solved in a magic barren land? Houdini's first reaction was disbelief, but after he confirmed the truth through prophecy spells, his old face almost wrinkled into a bun.

Elson...Elson...who is its lord?

Inexplicably, he thought of the line of writing that Merlinsera reflected in front of his eyes, and his originally decided mind was gradually shaken.

And the lord of Elson City who he was talking about was sitting at his desk thinking hard at this time, not at all proud of the city's dazzling magical buildings—or, he still doesn't know the history of the Rahiman Kingdom at all. As for the actual situation, I don't even know what Ambassador Rahiman's name is.

Luo Di was staring at the city construction column in front of him, thinking about the future strategic steps.

The city level of Elson City is composed of a blue level 9 and a gray level 17 side by side, which means that the city used to be level 17, but the current construction level can only be regarded as level 9 - several months When Rody just became the city lord, the city was a deserted level 4, but now it has risen to level 9 at a rocket-like speed, which can be said to be a miracle.

But Roddy was not satisfied.

He didn't think the development was too slow, but when he stood in the position of city lord, he had already seen the limit of the city one step ahead of others.

Elson City was built as a fortress city with military purposes at the beginning. Although it is much stronger than the current single-purpose castle fortresses of the Kingdom of London, the basic structure has already determined the room for future growth of the city: Even if Elson City is upgraded to level 17 in its heyday, it still cannot meet the needs of Roddy's next strategic goals.

To stand firm in the kingdom, what Rody needs is a highly developed and well-planned main city—that is, a super city that maximizes the use of resources and can become the heart of the kingdom.

Elson can't do that,

Although its core technology is ahead of the entire kingdom, more than half of the buildings in the city are related to the military. If sufficient funds are not used to operate these military factories, barracks and other buildings during the truce period in the future, then the city will obviously fail. Will fall into an embarrassing tasteless position.

At this stage, there is nothing wrong with vigorously developing military technology. But what about after this turbulent period? When facing an economic war, the military buildings that were originally powerful will become shackles that imprison development.

Of course, it's a bit early to think about this when facing the triple attack of orcs, undead, and Karen's domestic royal family, but now Rody is no longer a ranger who eats enough for one person and the whole family is not hungry. The so-called seeking his own government in his position, the title of the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and the Lord of Elson City is not just a title for showing off, but also represents that he wants to control the future destiny of countless people.

What a big head...

Roddy deeply understands that a person's ability is too limited. Even if he has the advantage of rebirth, he still feels deeply powerless when faced with such a large-scale and multi-faceted plan——Aide Camilla There are already enough things to be responsible for, and there is no time to come and discuss these now, so Roddy finally understands why the commanders in the past had to have staff teams, business groups had to have think tanks,******** There will also be a group of secretary teams below.

In battle, Roddy can find the best option as quickly as possible. But in terms of complex construction, one person can't do it at all.

The biggest problem right now is the lack of people...

Roddy sighed involuntarily, and lay down in the armchair a little tiredly.

Although I have built and trained many talents by myself, such as Sodlornata, Akasha, Irwin and the current Dragonlance Knights, this can only be regarded as the smallest group in the Raid team. According to Roddy's vision, in the future, dungeons or areas that need to be led by the team will require a team of at least 30 to 40 people-this kind of team is not enough to just recruit the Knights to make up the number. Strange enemies, Roddy needs all kinds of professional players to help him...

Assassination thieves, blood warlocks, holy light knights, prophets, druids, etc., are circling in Roddy's mind - every job in Cracking Earth has its own unique characteristics. Properly grasped, a standard RaID team of 30 people can completely make Rody invincible on the road of opening up wasteland-those hidden ancient underground cities that no one cares about, rare treasures left over from ancient civilizations, and priceless expensive mineral veins, all of them It depends on such a team to explore and discover.

Roddy's established strategy is to rapidly increase the wealth and technology of the territory by means of treasure-discovery-style RaID activities, and at the same time consolidate the existing advantages of Elson City horizontally, and lay the foundation for a stable economy in the future step by step.

So regardless of the crisis we are facing now, the matter of attracting outstanding talents must also be done in advance. Rody sat up, rubbed his temples, and began to carefully recall the powerful NPCs he had seen in various places, and began to write down the area where they lived, their appearance, and their names...

'Tree of Life' Fantney, he should be in the Silent Forest at this time, and he probably hasn't become a mentor yet.

'Blaster' Alostez, forget it, this guy has a problem with his brain, and he will be a disaster even if he comes...

'Shadow Step' Renault? Tsk tsk, it's quite difficult to find him.

After all, the advantages of rebirth are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Many characters with extremely high achievements in the future are still in a state of obscurity. After all, large-scale wars have not yet broken out, and these gold have not yet been tested and shine. And now that Roddy has sufficient funds and power, soliciting such a low-investment and high-return business in advance is really a waste of time.

After writing down a few people's names, the floodgates of memory seemed to be completely opened. Rody not only wrote down the names of the people that the Raid team needed, but also listed a large number of famous blacksmiths, leathersmiths, enchanters, rune makers, Construction machinery manufacturers, spell material vendors, etc. made a long list...

Rody was so engrossed in thinking about these things that he didn't even notice a series of subtle footsteps behind him - when the familiar light fragrance filled the surroundings, Rody realized that she had been standing beside her for more than ten seconds .

You don't say anything when you come here, what are you looking at secretly?

Luo Di rubbed his bloodshot eyes due to fatigue, stretched his waist and put down the pen. He wanted to continue to say something, but found that Nai Fei's face was not very good-looking, so he asked: What? Who bullied you? Or is there Who made you unhappy?

Naifei didn't speak, but raised her hand silently. Sitting just like this, Luo Di was a little curious about what this eccentric little girl was going to do, but Naifei actually helped Luo Di massage her temples, and said in a low voice: Someone is bullying me, and they keep bullying me.

Ah? Who is it? Tell me, I'll clean him up!

Luo Di was in a daze because of what he had written before, but when he heard Naifei say this, he didn't suspect him for a while.

Well, that guy stays in the study until very late every day before going to bed, and sometimes he doesn't even go to bed, but he is strict with me, even if he goes to bed a second later, he will call my mother to kill me...you go and help me clean him up Is it a good meal?

Rody didn't know who she was talking about when he heard this. Although he was speechless, he felt warm in his heart. After all, Naifei obviously used this protesting tone to express his concern for him. After figuring this out, Rody pulled over the parchment that had already been written on several sheets and said, I don't want to exhaust myself, so I'm going to find some people to help me.

Naifei was obviously a little surprised. She actually came here today to recommend herself - she can already do a lot of things for Rody, why do she have to do boring spell training every day? But seeing what Rody said, she couldn't help wondering what was written on the parchment. She took it over and flipped through it. The densely packed names, regions, and appearances immediately surprised Naifei.

Rody also didn't realize for a while how complicated the distribution of the guys on that list was, there were all kinds of corners in deep mountains, wild forests, and Nai Fei had never heard of even one-third of the place names. The list is enough for the little girl to realize the gap in experience...

So she looked at Luo Di differently.

Brother Luo Di, these people...have you seen them all?

Uh, no, most of them just heard about them. I knew some of their deeds when I passed by those places, so I hope to invite these guys to Elson to help me. Of course, it's not bad if half of this list can be included in the end. .”

Naifei didn't say anything more, but her eyes stayed on the names of the suspected women on the list for a while, her sly eyes narrowed, she snorted, and put the list back—now she has recovered Seeing her strange elf look in the past, Rody felt relieved when he saw her like this, and patted Naifei's hand: Okay, okay, it feels much more comfortable after rubbing it, you can sit down and rest for a while.

After finishing the words, Nefei squeezed into the armchair and sat side by side with him abruptly. Luo Di knew that Naifei was prone to jumpiness, but he had always been indulgent and let her mess around, so he didn't stand up and move his place at this time, but leaned as far as possible, and asked, Why do you suddenly want to ask me these things? gone?

Brother Luo Di, I heard that those people in the city are discussing the war. Is the war coming soon?

War...

Rody nodded meaningfully, and said in a low voice, Actually, it has already begun.

The howling wind brushed over Nata's cheeks, and the spread wings of the pintail sand cone left a shadow on the vast grassland - after the Rahiman Kingdom and Charles II were arguing with each other, and the magical buildings in Elson City were activated one by one At the time, the wood elf ranger had been flying over the Nehemia prairie for ten days.

In the field of vision, the flat and open prairie can be seen at a glance, and the orc base camp is more conspicuous like black sores.

Every war is not just a decisive battle. Everything, such as reconnaissance, supplies, transportation, etc., may affect the outcome of a battle. Therefore, when everyone's eyes are on the Karen Kingdom, as a Nata, the number one ranger under Roddy's command, had already started her mission.

Nata hovered unscrupulously in the sky by virtue of the air supremacy, without any worry that she would be discovered. After three days of uninterrupted observation, she has confirmed the composition of the opponent's troops, roughly calculated the amount of luggage, and even sorted out the proportion of members of each tribe...

In other words, this is the advantage brought about by information inequality. When the orcs didn't know where the warlord troops that suddenly disappeared went, Rody had a panoramic view of all their movements.

After completing the last inspection mission, Nata hid the map that was still perfected last night close to her body, and then slowly pulled the rein, causing the needle tail sand cone to change the direction of flight—however, her front was not the way back, but the majestic The stretching Gondola Mountains, and the gloomy and depressing black forest in the distance...

There... is the silent and pale land of the dead, Tasman. Mobile users please visit
