On March 20, 997, the year of the God Emperor, under the east gate of Yeqi City, a team of more than 300 people was slowly moving eastward under the leadership of the intermediate knight Rune Egret.
This team was headed for construction in the industrial zone 20 kilometers east of the city, and was accompanied by Ben Kaul, Kurya Gan, the centaur girl Kai Yin and the earth elf.
"This Lant, he patted his chest and told his father that he wanted to train Wendy to be a magister, but he and the girl were bored in the salt mine. He didn't even do things like develop the territory himself, and only sent a cavalry to pass the order." Albert He complained to Ben Call angrily.
Since Lant went to the salt mine alone, Albert was sent by Huck to sit in Yeqi City as a representative of the Galloping Horse family.
"What? Isn't it normal for a man to love his concubine?" Ben said casually.
"It's so normal. This boy has perfectly inherited his father. He can't take his eyes away when he sees a girl." Albert became angrier as he spoke.
Ben looked at Albert seriously for a while, with a smile on his face.
"What's wrong?" Albert felt uncomfortable being stared at by Ben.
"According to the latest theory," the mage tried hard not to laugh.
"A son will always be consistent with his father, so...don't you and Huck have the same father? Or are you tired and jealous of Lant and the girl?"
"..." Albert was speechless for a while by Ben's joke.
"Hmph, I think this kid has no idea. It doesn't matter if he just wants to be a stable Viscount. It's obviously him who said he wanted to recover the entire Galloping Horse Plains."
"I think" Ben looked at Albert very pleased. After so many years, he still maintained the same enthusiasm as before.
"Don't underestimate your nephew too much, and don't underestimate that girl too."
"That Wendy?" Albert's eyes widened. In his opinion, Wendy was just an ordinary girl who possessed demons. Perhaps she was rare in the Galloping Horse Kingdom, but in the Imperial Capital, such a girl was not few.
"Yes, in the past few days, that girl has started to spy on me."
"this?"
"She set up a small magic circle in the emergency communications room and monitored the time and communication methods I used in that room." Ben still remembered the unusual light he saw in the emergency communications room. It was him. It only appeared after opening the magic mirror.
"But...you...will still fall in love with her." Albert was shocked and speechless.
"If she made changes in the communication circle, of course I would be able to feel it, but she used a very small rune to monitor the opening time of the communication room. By the time I noticed it, it was already too late." Ben smiled. Patting Albert on the shoulder,
"Everyone's magical talent is different. I've always heard that someone's child is a born magician, but I don't feel it. This time I really see it."
"Are there really born magicians?" Albert felt dry for a while, but he asked
"You're not going to have trouble with a little girl, are you?"
"Look what you said, if we were in the Tower of Purity, such students would be worthy of my personal teaching." At this point, Ben showed a rather regretful expression.
"I finally understand why Teferi always has trouble with the Feilong family. They have wasted a good child."
. . At the same time, in the camp outside the salt mine, the ground was shaking continuously, and a whirlwind with strong magical elements was swirling around the camp.
Wherever the cyclone struck, earth was piled up to form walls, and sand was gathered to form towers. A fortress building equivalent to the size of Lot Castle was completed within half a day.
The Salt Mine Castle includes a five-story main castle. The first floor of the main castle is a 10-meter-high hall, and the upper four floors are all 6-meters high.
Attached is a 50-meter watchtower and a 3-story auxiliary fort. The surrounding high wall of no less than 15 meters blocks the entire south entrance of the salt mine.
The walls inside the castle are stone walls directly condensed by the big goblin's magic. The columns, beams, and even the floor on the first floor are also made in the same way.
"Would it be too much magic for you to create rocks?" Looking at Tenia, Lant was a little worried that she was tired.
"I didn't create new sand, I just used magic to change their shapes. The structures of the walls, columns, and ground are different." Tania said,
"Don't worry, I understand your requirements for these places. The structures in this castle have natural magic patterns, so it won't be a problem to leave it for thirty to fifty years." After the castle was completed, Tenia even made The roof, chimney, and finished walls have natural reinforcement circles.
Lant and Wendy ran to the castle and watched everywhere. Tenia even left some regular pattern decorations on the roof.
"No wonder Pete said that day that he was an earth magic fairy queen. In a short time, he completed the 40-meter-high city wall of Maned Wolf City." Looking at the huge castle, Lant finally saw the true power of the magic fairy. .
The castle and high walls surrounded the former tent camp in the middle. All the tents in the camp will be temporarily put away, and some commercial buildings will be built on the original foundation of Tenia.
Existing residents will move into the auxiliary fort first, and they can build tents or houses nearby in the future. In Lant's eyes, this place will become a viscounty in the future, specifically responsible for the operation of salt mines and coal mines.
This will become a nice town in the future, but Lant doesn’t plan to keep Tenia, the infrastructure master, here for too long, so he needs to take advantage of these few days to complete the underground drainage pipes, ground walls and commercial buildings. Finish.
"No, you mean, I will do all the construction here, and then I have to pave more than 200 kilometers of roads and build 6 castles?" Tania looked at Lant angrily, and what happened to her petite face? He doesn't even look angry.
In fact, Wendy specifically told Lant yesterday that this consumption is nothing to Tenia. Tenia's anger was simply because Lant's level was too low. His gesticulation made Tenia, who was equivalent to a magister, feel... offended.
"My Tutor Tenia, everything I plan here is to make this salt mine safer and more efficient, so that you don't have to make several trips." Lant kept coaxing.
"Why, how many more times do you want me to make a trip? What's wrong with one trip not being enough?" Lant mobilized all his strength and thoughts to coax Tania. The big goblin showed off his power in front of Lant, and also So he went to build his own house.
"Sir," Wendy said beside her. She had seen several interactions between Lant and the big goblin in the past two days. She covered her mouth and laughed non-stop every time.
"If one day I break through to the Magisterium, will you coax me like this?"
"Do I owe you or something? I just want to find a technical director. How can it be like finding a girlfriend?" Rant kept complaining in his heart. The key is that magic fairies have no gender. They use female pronouns entirely because The Wen Goddess Vili is clearly recorded as female.
"Then I really hope" Lant looked at Wendy,
"You have broken through to a high level between me, otherwise you wouldn't be able to enjoy my coaxing." Wendy and the other girls have been demon embracers since they came to the plains a few years ago, because they have always been She was the apprentice of a barbarian priest. Until recently, in recent days, Wendy had broken through to become a junior magician, and several other girls were also showing signs of breakthrough.
Lant is now at the intermediate level and is about to reach the advanced level. In terms of level and breakthrough speed, Lant is faster than several girls.
"We will all work hard, I'm looking forward to that day"
"Huh? By the way, how have you been doing in math lately?" Lant asked leisurely,
"They have all begun to rely on teaching to learn. If you learn slowly, you may not be able to catch up with them."
