Basically, except for the 'cultivation' stage, which is a matter belonging to Yggdrasil, one of the steps of 'ruling the land' is a continent-level transformation project, and 'establishing the world' is a social transformation plan, which is not something that can be easily carried out. . The negotiated part is just a rough plan. Detailed implementation of detailed planning is another long expedition.

So not only Lin was not in a hurry, but even the plants were also patient. Anyway, I have been waiting for thousands of years, so this is not enough time. What's more, having direction now is better than having no direction before.

After finishing the discussion with World Tree, Lin returned to his original life steps. Apart from adding a daily trip to a high-level meeting, the life shown to the outside world is still ordinary.

After breakfast in the morning, people disappeared from the holy city and went to the High Seat Meeting. Come back for lunch at noon, take a short break in the afternoon, and then mentor your apprentice.

Halumi and Kaya have long been in a state of letting go, but whether the newly joined Leonardo has his heart in magic or not, someone as a teacher still has to pay attention. But this kid always asked about some knowledge that had nothing to do with magic, so Lin just answered him as usual.

Lin is also planning to put the education of Ezio and Vana's child, Kish, into consideration. Kish must be six years old, after all, he has a mother. Ezio's exact age is unknown, but he should be around the same age as Kish.

If these two lawless scourges are left alone, this family will almost be turned upside down by them. Not to mention other things, a few cats were often tortured by their vicious hands. And with the black dragon Augustus as his backer, the gray cat Hardy had nowhere to get angry, let alone the fact that these two were still human cubs, Hardy really couldn't get angry.

But to Lin, he is someone else's child anyway. Lin plans to replicate what kind of training Harumi and Kaya went through when they came to him. At least that one was used on two girls. Although there was a slight deviation, it did not go astray. It can be regarded as a successful experience.

As for the training standards someone plans to set, there are no standards. Anyway, with Fen, a being who transcends the lich level, he can still be resurrected even if he dies, let alone his limbs.

So Lin planned to let these two lawless fat boys fully understand the principle of "sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war". This is definitely not revenge or anything like that, and it has nothing to do with his favorite cup being smashed.

Speaking of which, Lin had a similar attitude when teaching students at Chengguo Eton College in Xijia District, southwest of Midi. This bad taste was already part of his twisted personality. Now it looks like he plans to repeat the same mistake. I don’t know how the ending will turn out this time.

After guiding the apprentices and worrying about the two fat boys, it was time to attend the math class at Kabamba College. It is also a state of not doing its job properly, and it has long gone from the path of pure numbers to who knows where. Lin didn't bother to correct these people. Anyway, he paid for the teaching and provided them with the knowledge they wanted to know. Everyone was happy.

Then dinner, chatting with people at home, stargazing, and sleeping, the day passed like this. No one could have imagined that he was currently discussing matters with the high officials of the Ikaruga Alliance that could overturn the status quo of Lost Land.

Only a few magicians who are proficient in earth magic, or are proficient in astrology and prophecy can see some clues from the subtle signs, if they pay attention. To most people, whether it is the High Seat of the Turtle Dove Alliance or the World Tree, they are both unfathomable and quite far away from ordinary people.

People will be concerned about the movements of this existence, but they cannot reflect the details of the other person's daily life. It's as if people are concerned about the emperor of today's empire and the news of the invasion in which direction the whole country will be mobilized, but they have no way of knowing how many times the emperor brushed his teeth today or what he had for breakfast.

This is simply impossible, it’s not that people don’t want to know. There is gossip news to read, and people who eat melons still like to hear it.

However, the high officials of the Ikaruga Alliance suggested that each of them should separate a clone and gather at someone's home in the holy city of Estali so that they could discuss matters at any time. Someone is strongly opposed to this stupid proposal.

If you agree to take your work home with you, you will be able to change your eight-hour workday into a twenty-four-hour workday on the spot. You will not give up until you die from overwork. Not to mention that it only takes less than four hours a day to do the work of World Tree. If you really let these big guys keep an eye on you all the time, you won't be able to survive.

You must know that this is a group of plants that can work continuously for a month without eating, drinking or sleeping. What's even more frightening is that they have no liver! What a horrifying creature.

As for the work related to the World Tree, the only person around who can help is Fen, the former Demon King. It's okay for two girls to act as an opponent, but they can't take the lead alone. It's just that the lich has been busy with his own affairs recently, and often can't see people. Of course, he can't catch the tolerance.

On the contrary, for the garment-making commission from Dharma Saint Mahatab, someone was captured by a lich who suddenly appeared and was squeezed until the program for the jacquard machine was solved, and he was freed. A certain person can only look at the back of the lich leaving gracefully with full of resentment, biting the handkerchief that cannot be torn apart sadly...

It was autumn, 732 years of the Aramaic calendar, on a certain day.

On this day, Lin rarely ran to the high-level meeting early in the morning, but stayed at home, preparing to receive a guest - the Grand Duke of the Guevana Empire, Ricardo Carvey. We met again after more than seven months.

As for the reason... I don't know. He said he would come, and he came. How could such a big man like a domineering president care about the thoughts of a little magician? After all, the other party was the financial owner. Lin also wanted to take a breather from the core modification hell of the World Tree, so he decided to take leave from those high-ranking officials to meet this old man who never went to the Three Treasures Hall for anything.

In fact, the Grand Duke and his party had entered the automobile manufacturing and R&D center as early as yesterday. If you really want to show off, you can directly send an envoy to 'invite' a certain magician to the center.

However, he still made an appointment this morning to visit him in person, which was considered as a sign of respect. Fortunately, it was agreed in advance. Otherwise, according to someone's habit of leaving immediately after breakfast, you might not be able to meet him when you visit unexpectedly.

Maybe it was because the old man had eaten enough and went to bed late and got up early. In short, after someone got up and had breakfast, the Grand Duke of Kawei's motorcade came in force. The motorized Duke's Guards, with vehicles of various functions, almost filled someone's courtyard and the street outside.

It is said that the old man's Duke's Guard still retains cavalry specifically for charging. However, horses are also carried in vehicles to retain their physical strength for charging on the battlefield.

What is extremely conspicuous is that among the large and small vehicles that are uniformly green in color, there is a carriage that is quite gorgeously decorated and seems to have quite good protective capabilities. The horse pulling the cart wears a silver visor, and there is a tuft of blue hair on top of the vest and helmet. It looks very... mighty? Or is it ridiculous? In short, the aesthetics of aristocrats are quite far from someone's reality.

I don’t know if this old man is here to show off, or if he really cares about showing off when traveling. Fortunately, only two teams of escorting knights got off in the end, instead of everyone getting off the car and once again filling the place that was already crowded with vehicles with people.

It's just that among the two escort teams, only one looks like the Duke's Guard that I've seen before. The other team consisted of guard knights wearing black robes and black silk veils.

This is a specialty of the Gwana Empire, a knight squad composed of noble women. According to their customs, noble women, whether unmarried or married, were not allowed to show their faces in front of men who were not family members.

But you must not underestimate these knights composed of noble women. Because their attire is so concealing, no one knows what is hidden under the veil and robe. It may be a pair of magic armor or a hand crossbow. Their aristocratic background means that their families are well off, so their weapons and equipment are naturally very different from ordinary soldiers.

And such a team of noble female knights cannot be used by everyone. They only serve female high-ranking nobles, and even underage men cannot have such a team. The only exception is the emperor of the empire, but he is only a nominal commander, because the female knights only protect the concubines and replace the men in guarding the emperor's harem.

Such a group of women, someone has only heard rumors before, but has not really seen it. But since we see such a team here, it means that there is a very important noble woman in Duke Kawei's motorcade.

As expected, besides Grand Duke Kawei, there was also a shorter woman who got off the only carriage. Of course, the loose robe cannot reveal the figure, but Lin can still use his own detection methods to obtain various data on the other party's physical appearance, and even further simulate the other party's appearance.

However, subsequent actions must be taken proactively by someone. If Lin did not take any action, the detection program he had written on the Dreamland Magic Tower would only passively accumulate data without further processing to avoid taking up too many computing resources.

But even without doing that, just from simple environmental detection information, Lin could come to the conclusion that the woman in front of him was the granddaughter of Kawei. Because her body parameters are similar to the driver parameters provided by the Grand Duke when he was designing the No. 1 car. The person scheduled to drive car No. 1 is the grand duke's granddaughter, a girl who lost her parents at a young age.

In order to welcome this great nobleman, Lin personally took his three apprentices and stood waiting at the door of the main house. This was considered the highest-level lineup. The seemingly cheerful old man stepped forward with heroic laughter and gave Lin a big hug.

"Hahahaha, long time no see, Xiao Gai." He was an old man who was also familiar with the Dharma Saint Babak Abunahan, and used the affectionate name. He looked at someone up and down, and said with a strange expression: "The way you look now, it should be considered very bad -" while saying this, he rubbed someone's Xuanwu robe sleeves rudely with his fingers, "——I'm still in my prime, and I finally have some clothes that suit my net worth."

Patting his cheek, which was so thin that it looked like a skull, Lin chuckled. "As for magicians, there are still many people who look strange, let alone those who are dead. I'm not the worst among them."
