My Magic Age

After I determined the exact location of the second ancient war tree with the ancient war tree, I left the Dustwallow Marsh with the token of the ancient war tree and returned to the Trum camp.

When I met Justus, he was holding a bonfire dinner with the dwarf Bernd in the camp. The theme of the dinner was roasted spider legs.

Justus returned to the camp with a team of barbarian slaves. More than 200 barbarian slaves wearing black iron armor returned triumphantly with many spoils on their backs. The spoils they carried really shocked the laborers in the camp.

This time, Justus's mission was to eliminate the giant spiders that sneaked in around the Trum territory. With the help of the tree spirits in the forest, almost every hidden giant spider was dug out. Some were killed directly on the spot, and some were captured and brought back.

Perhaps it was because the Nibru spiders built spider camps in the Black Forest, which made the ancient war trees and the tree spirits feel the approach of danger. Therefore, these peaceful tree spirits chose to form an alliance with me and dig out all the giant spiders hidden in the forest.

In this Black Forest, no creature can escape the sight of the tree spirits.

Most barbarian slaves carry some giant spider legs on their shoulders. These three-meter-long spider legs with sharp black barbs have delicious and tender spider meat, which is deeply loved by barbarian slaves. They like to grill the whole spider leg on the bonfire. When the hard black shell on the surface of the spider leg is burned and cracked, the aroma will rush out of the spider leg, and then add a little white pepper and a little salt. The delicious taste is irresistible.

The meat is fresh and delicious. This is why barbarian slaves like these delicious spider legs.

Some barbarian slaves walking behind the team dragged arm-thick vines, which tied giant spiders with severed legs. These giant spiders looked like huge meat mountains that would tremble and scream. Every four barbarian slaves dragged a giant spider together and returned to the Trum camp.

Although the laborers who came to Tanton City suffered from the persecution of the Nibru Spiders, few of them had such close contact with these giant spiders. When they saw these huge meat mountains that had no power to resist trembling in front of everyone, the laborers in the entire Trum camp cheered for them.

The laborers in Tanton City seemed to feel the victory of the war, and the depression suppressed in their hearts was released.

They all looked for some sticks and stones from the camp to attack the giant spiders. These giant spiders were tied up in the vines and had no power to resist. In fear, they sprayed out balls of pure white spider silk from their abdominal spinners. Perhaps this was the survival instinct of the giant spiders. Once their lives were threatened, they would automatically spray out spider silk to protect themselves.

It was precisely these precious white spider silks that saved the lives of these giant spiders. These spider silks reminded Bernd that these fresh giant spiders needed to be transported back to the Xinliu Valley Silk Reeling Workshop. Each giant spider was a valuable asset to me, so when these giant spiders were beaten to spit out spider silk, Bernd prohibited the laborers in the Trum Camp from abusing and beating these giant spider captives.

…

I left Ying Li and Le Die in Tanton City, and took the opportunity to meet the ancient war tree to take Katarina and the Minotaur Warrior Luka back to the Trum Camp, mainly to move the stones in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley out.

Before this, the granite strips accumulated in the underground warehouse had been moved out by the barbarian slaves and have now become the foundation of the walls of the Trum Camp. Now that the Trum Camp is going to continue to build, a large amount of granite strips are needed to build the remaining part of the walls and some important buildings in the town.

Since the underground light rail was laid in the underground warehouse, those heavy-loaded mine carts can follow the inertia of gravity and rush directly from the orc village to the underground warehouse along the underground passage. Therefore, it is quite convenient to transport these stones. As soon as the mountains of stones on the underground warehouse square were cleared, a large number of stones were transported from the orc village.

Now there are nearly a thousand orcs and half-orcs living in the orc village, and there are hundreds of barbarian slaves in the quarry. It is not a big problem to use these laborers to carry those strips of stone. When I took Ying Li and Le Die through the underground cave of Xinliu Valley, the underground warehouse was already full of stones.

Five hundred barbarian slaves and more than one hundred orc construct warriors once again became the main labor force for transporting these strips of stone through the portal.

There were nearly seven hundred native Yelos helping in the underground warehouse, but these hundreds of kilograms of stone required at least six to eight native Yelos men to lift them, so their role could only be said to be negligible.

So the main labor force was still these three-meter-tall strong barbarian slaves, but as long as they were given meat to eat, it didn't matter even if they were asked to carry two pieces of stone on their shoulders at the same time.

Bernd stood at the portal and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, work hard for me, and when you empty the stones in the underground warehouse, I will give you fifty frozen yellow sheep in the ice storage."

The barbarian slaves cried excitedly when they heard that there would be yellow sheep meat to eat later.

The portal was open for a day and a night at the granary of the Trum camp. Of course, this time was calculated according to the time of the imperial capital of Roland Continent.

On the Yello plane, if the time on Roland Continent is compared with the time here, four days and four nights in the imperial capital are almost equal to one day and one night on the Yello plane.

When the lightning power stored in the left shoulder blade was consumed again, the granite stones piled up in the Trum camp had piled up like a mountain.

I also took this opportunity to return to the imperial capital once, set the portal between the imperial capital and Xinliu Valley in the warehouse of Alia Manor, and moved all the rune plates made in the Xinliu Valley Magic Seal Workshop and the magic pattern spider silk ingots produced in the silk reeling workshop to Alia's home.

This time, the dwarf Bernd will stay in the Trum camp to manage the granary and town construction. I am worried that there will be more spider warriors sneaking into the Trum territory next, so I left Bernd a team of fifty barbarian slaves. Considering that this team is responsible for patrolling and defending the entire Trum territory, I took out ten boxes of giant magic crossbow arrows from the magic seal workshop.

In this way, even if a small group of spider warriors enter the Trum territory, they will not return.

When the problem of stone shortage in the Trum camp was solved, I led Kalancuo, Katarina, Minotaur Warrior Luka, Siren Descendant Justus and others, as well as 450 barbarian slaves and 100 orc construct warriors to the outside of Tanton City.

I let these barbarian slaves and orc warriors stationed on the edge of the forest outside Tanton City, and did not bring them into Tanton City.

Justus and Kalancuo managed these barbarian slaves and orc construct warriors in the forest.

On the third day, Katarina, Minotaur Luka, and I returned to Tanton City.

As soon as the three of us stepped into the nearly 100-kilometer-wide grassland outside Tanton City, we were discovered by Deborah, who was flying all day over Tanton City.

She rushed directly in front of us from high in the sky, suddenly spread her wings, and forcibly stopped her body. The huge inertia made Deborah's wings bear this huge burden. I could even hear the crisp sound of her wing bones "cracking". However, Deborah did not have any painful expression. Instead, she said to me excitedly: "Ji Jia, is Kalancuo here?"

I pointed to the edge of the black forest behind and said to her: "She and those orc construct warriors are waiting in the woods over there."

"Oh, then I'll go see her!" Deborah cheered, spread her wings and flew into the air, gliding towards the edge of the black forest against the air currents in the air.

Kalancuo always taught Deborah a lesson, told her a lot of rules and principles, and sometimes punished Deborah physically, but Deborah was very dependent on Kalancuo, and would actively approach her every time, as if Kalancuo would feel uncomfortable if she didn't scold her severely for a few days.

I took Katarina and Luka back to Tanton City, and saw Knight Kasim waiting there again at the city gate.

Knight Kasim told me that Count Rez had rented a manor in the inner city of Tanton City, and now all the constructed knights of the guard team have moved to that manor, and Princess Yingli and Princess Ledie also live there.

Perhaps it was because the food crisis in Tanton City was solved, perhaps it was because Tanton City had not been invaded by the Nibru Spiders for more than a month, or perhaps it was because Pereira City and Tanton City were connected again. In short, the city has more or less restored some of its past bustle.

Some small vendors can even be seen on the roadside, and some shops on the street have also quietly opened. This city used to be a paradise for adventurers. Most of the adventurers in the nearby hundreds of miles would choose to replenish supplies in Tanton City.

The main reason is that there are many shops here, and these shops are varied, almost buying everything, magic herbs, magic beast materials, magic ores, etc.

In addition, most of the shops here can repair everything, whether it is ironware or leather goods, they are all repaired in a decent manner.

Finally, the grocery stores here have a full range of items, basically all can be purchased in one stop.

Catalina and I walked on the street and found that even the pedestrians on the street gradually became more and more. Everyone held some valuable items in their hands, probably wanting to exchange some food or something, which made me feel that the city had returned to its prosperity a few months ago.

The manor rented by Count Rez is in the most prosperous area of ​​the inner city. Originally, the most powerful and richest nobles in Tanton City lived here, but now those manors are almost deserted.

We followed Knight Kasim into this manor that looked very grand, but the lawn in the front yard of the manor was already overgrown with weeds, and some marble columns with fine relief patterns stood in the weeds on both sides of the road.

The climate on the Yelo plane is warm and there is plenty of rain. As long as the weeds on the lawn are not cleaned for a few days, they will grow out. Many low ornamental trees in the courtyard have not been trimmed for a long time, and their original shapes can no longer be seen.

The magic pattern array of the fountain in the front courtyard has long been abandoned, but the pool is full of rainwater, and a layer of green duckweed floats on the water.

Some knights from the bodyguard regiment were washing their war horses by the pool. These war horses were all black-scaled horses, fat and strong, and covered with a layer of gorgeous armor. Now those armors were neatly placed at the door. On the stone steps, the construct knights wore simple leather clothes and used brushes to scrub the bodies of war horses that were as shiny as brocade.

When these construct knights saw Kasim and me, they all greeted Kasim and gave me knighthoods.

Count Reitz and Jason Knight are in the conference room of the main building of the manor complex. On the wall of the conference room is an extremely detailed map of Tanton City. Not only is Tanton City marked in detail on this map, It is located opposite Pereira City and includes the entire southern area of ​​the Black Forest.

Moreover, some of the original spider camps are clearly marked on the map. These spider camps have special markings with red pens, and there are also some clear annotations on the red circles to indicate the current status of these spider camps.

Count Reitz and Knight Jason were discussing in the conference room which route they should take to clean up the spider camp on the outskirts of Tanton City. They both seemed quite happy to see me returning safely. Count Reitz said excitedly I said: "Count Jijia, what have you gained from this trip?"

I stood at the door of the conference room and said frankly to Count Reitz: "I will gather the followers scattered in the area around Tanton City, and some combat teams will also gather together. They will follow us to clean up the southern area of ​​​​the Black Forest. Spider Camp.”

After saying that, I walked to the map on the wall and drew a large circle with a red pen on the lower right corner of the map, almost reaching the edge of the map.

I said to Count Reitz, "I have received the latest news that there are still a large number of Nibru Spider-men stationed in the southern area of ​​the Black Forest."

I then found Tanton City on the map, once again drew a very eye-catching red circle, connected the two red circles closely with a red line, and drew a big arrow.

"We set off from Tanton City. If we ride quickly on horseback, it should take about ten days to reach the edge of this area." I pointed to the southern area and said to Count Reitz.

At this time, Count Reitz and Jason Knight frowned, and they didn't seem so satisfied with my action plan.

Count Reitz hesitated for a moment and said to me: "Count Jijia, will it be risky for us to go deep into the southern part of the Black Forest alone?"

Knight Jason on the side saw me raise my head, followed Count Reitz's gaze, and focused his gaze on the map again.

He also interjected and said: "Yes, after all, in this hunting operation, we have to ensure the safety of the two princesses. Should we choose a more conservative action plan?"

I touched my nose and said to Count Reitz, "I think this plan is already very conservative. Do you two have a more conservative plan?"

Count Reitz stood next to the map, pointing to the red-marked locations around Tanton City, and said to me confidently: "According to what we know, in the outer suburbs of Tanton City, um! Here...here ...There should also be a large number of spider warriors stationed in this area. We can choose a camp with a spider warlord from these spider camps..."
