The Defeated Dragon

No one can match Ake's speed on the sea.

On the day before the New Year's Day, Liszt first went to Ironshoe Island with Ake, and after landing, he changed to Leo and went straight to Ironshoe City to host the New Year's celebration in Ironshoe City.

After taking over the Ironshoe City from the Sapphire family, Galtai, the advisor of the Ironshoe City, Blair, the Administrative Officer of the Ironshoe City, and Garcia, the head of the Knights of the Ironshoe City, encouraged and maintained the operation of the largest city on Ironshoe Island. The first thing to do is to count the household registration and conduct a census of farmland.

It's a pity that no trace of the elf insects was found, and the sapphire family was searched cleanly before the handover.

And among the city residents, even a master-level craftsman can't be found, and they were obviously transferred by the Sapphire family early on. Apart from stonemasons, carpenters, blacksmiths, cobblers, and tailors, there are not many other types of craftsmen, and most of them are worker-level craftsmen working in workshops.

In the end, most of the population was serfs who made a living from farming.

In order to ensure that these populations would not starve to death, Galtai and others had to buy food from surrounding cities, and then began to arrange workers and serfs to work-relief with work is an advanced governance plan brought by Liszt, which does not directly provide food to serfs. To distribute food, you must work to give food.

Because the farmland is going to be gradually leased out, Ironshoe City will be dominated by trade, so the job of the serfs is to clean up the sanitation of Ironshoe City.

Taking advantage of this winter, first clean up the feces and urine, and then demolish some empty wooden houses and build toilets.

The original city with a population of 150,000 lost space due to a large number of population losses. Of course, Liszt would not spend a lot of money to renovate the city, but simply cleaned up the sanitation, built some toilets, planned the streets, and maintained a bright appearance. .

You can't go back to Heima Island to be with your family, but I will remember all your hard work.

To renovate Ironshoe City, it is enough to maintain the scale of 50,000 people. The remaining 50,000 people have to arrange their migration work one after another. After the work is completed, I will give each of you a credit.

At the celebration banquet, Liszt toasted to drink with his followers, and said some words that the leader fooled his subordinates. Followers expressed their determination not to work hard but to work hard, and the atmosphere was joyous.

The banquet is over.

Liszt rode on Leo, left Ironshoe City with Ake, returned to the sea, and then drove back to Heima Island overnight on a shell. On the second day, Heima Island entered into a festive atmosphere. Most of the civilians were already on vacation. Even if there were civilians who worked overtime, they were paid three times their wages.

The Messiroes and his wife arrived at noon, and the William Lee and Levi's couples also arrived at noon with Richard. An unprecedented excitement was brewing in the Castle of Thorns.

As night fell and before the dinner began, Chris led the magicians of the Magic Guild to set off many magic fireworks in the square in front of the Thorn Castle—this was a research task issued by Liszt in the Magic Guild, and it was not difficult Big, so there is a firework show in front of me.

Back then, when he celebrated the New Year in the Taro Castle, the great court magician, Grimandan Truth, released magic fireworks in the Taro Castle.

This made him remember deeply.

If there are no fireworks during the New Year's Day, is it still called a New Year's Day?

it's beautiful!

It's so lively!

so happy!

Watching the fireworks composed of magic power blooming in the air, everyone's expressions are shining with colorful lights, changing constantly with the fireworks.

Three years.

Liszt murmured silently in his heart that this was already his third New Year's Eve in this world. He misses his relatives a lot during the festive season, but he doesn't have any relatives to miss, so he quickly shakes off this trace of melancholy, anyway, he is already a part of this world.

I asked someone to send a potted plant from the castle as a New Year's gift for you. As long as you treat it well, it will reward you, just like the Lithops in the Castle of Thorns.

Mrs. Penelope came over, took his hand and chattered.

Lithops potted plants are placed up and down the Castle of Thorns as decorations for the castle.

After knowing that the Lithops and Cordyceps were bred by the potted plants she gave, Mrs. Penelope believed that her potted plants were different. Now she is sometimes reluctant to give away potted plants as a gift.

It is only a generous gift to Liszt and other family members.

However, since Lithops, she has sent out hundreds of potted plants, and she has never found a single Cordyceps.

Liszt received ten pots back and forth, none of which bred elf worms.

But for Mrs. Penelope's kindness, he generously accepted: Don't worry, grandma, I have people take care of the potted plants you gave me on the balcony to prevent them from giving birth to elf worms one day.

That's right, that's it!

...

The noisy New Year's Eve subsided in the middle of the night.

Liszt went back to his bedroom, drank a cup of Banpo milk tea, and circulated Dragon Dou Qi to evaporate the alcohol in his body and restore the clarity of his brain.

Then open a chivalrous novel and wait for the time when the new and the old intersect.

After a while.

The bell of the castle rang, 153 years of the sapphire calendar passed, and 154 years came, and the task of smoke also quietly changed at this time.

Complete the task and reward the magic circle plan.

When the smoke slowly outlined the serpent script of unknown rewards during the New Year's Day, Liszt's spirit suddenly lifted: It turned out to be a plan to send a magic circle!

The value of this reward can be said to be no less than a dragon!

Because once the transmission magic circle is popularized, the benefits that can be generated will be unimaginably huge. It is roughly similar to the invention of the telegraph or telephone on the earth, which brought subversive social changes.

very good!

I appreciate this mission reward. As for the plan of the magic circle for sending the message, it is either on Ake's side or at the mage's tower. I will go and ask carefully tomorrow to find out who invented the magic circle for sending the message. plan. Liszt was in a good mood.

After taking a few deep breaths, he suppressed his emotions and began to check the new smoke mission.

Mission: The new year will begin with the advent of the age of great voyages. It's time for the expedition fleet to set out to explore the sea. Keep in touch at all times. Let Jevic lead the fleet to sail out to find new living islands for you. Please Find three islands outside of Sapphire's sphere of influence. Reward: Restlessness of the Rubber Elf Bug Triplets.

The rubber bug triplets are going to be restless again?

It seems that after I recently turned my attention back to the elves, I repeatedly posted the missions about the elves, which indeed had the effect of taking the initiative to attack. The fate of the smoke dragon began to trap the elves.

Liszt thought about the content of the mission: Jevich's expedition fleet can set off, but before setting off, I must first create a magic circle of messengers, so that I can keep track of the fleet's movements at any time. By then, every time Jevich discovers a The island, Ake and I can arrive in time to arrange manpower development.

Moreover, he and Ake can replenish supplies for the fleet at any time.

In fact, Ake is the best candidate to explore the archipelago, but Ake's energy is devoted to magic experiments. As a mage, it seems a bit wasteful for her to go to the vast sea to find islands. After all, there are so many important mysteries waiting for Ah Ke to explore.

Thoughts wandered, Liszt fell into a deep sleep.

At dawn the next day, after practicing the daily knight class, he went straight to the laboratory upstairs, where Ah Ke was indeed doing experiments.
