Khanduras has entered late autumn. As soon as they stepped out of the teleportation circle, the moist and cold air gave a few people a familiar feeling. However, after walking outside, they found that there was a lot more atmosphere here than when they came back last time. Variety.
The streets seemed a bit crowded and chaotic, because houses were being built in many places, and they were all made of earth and stone.
Approaching the outskirts of the camp, they saw that a heavy stone wall was being built outside the original wooden wall. The foundation was two feet wide, which was not inferior to Lu Gaoyin's city wall.
Seeing all this in Mo Bei's eyes, he felt a bit like the transition from the feudal era to the castle era in the "Age of Empires" series of games, and he felt a lot of emotions for a while.
The establishment of Rogge Camp was actually quite accidental. There were originally many villages on both sides of the river. After the fall of the monastery, some members of the Sisters who luckily escaped settled here and resisted together with the villagers here and all kinds of human adventurers. Wandering monster.
Over time, nearby villages also moved to one place and began to join groups for warmth, and this gradually evolved into what it is today.
Although I have not seriously considered the location, in fact, it is not far from Tristram, which was wiped out by space magic. It can be seen that it is also a livable and convenient place.
For the convenience of construction, most of the materials were sourced from the lumberyards in the north. Therefore, only some of the more important buildings in the camp, or places where fire protection was required, such as repair workshops, were built with earth and stone.
Judging from the current situation of building stone walls and houses, this place habitually called Rogge Camp by human adventurers will probably need to be renamed soon.
A group of people walked on the street, chatting about what they should name it if it became a big city in the future.
Upgrading directly to "Rogge City" seems a bit random and sounds weird.
But no matter what it is called, everyone agrees that the name "Roger Camp" will definitely not be forgotten.
Just like the last time he came back, Mo Bei sent Milor and Perona back to Blountar Village first.
Just because it was just after noon, this time he declined the Bray couple's invitation to stay for dinner. Instead, he returned to the hut in the city without stopping, refreshed himself for a while, and then set off for Melrose Village.
It is still the busy farming season, and there are still many late-maturing crops waiting to be harvested, so there are busy figures in the fields.
When Mo Bei saw Akali from a distance, she was standing in the yard, dismantling logs and thick branches into sizes suitable for burning with her bare hands.
She was still wearing the neat training leather armor, and she had obviously grabbed the job to help as soon as she got home, without even changing her clothes.
Uncle Tim was at the sink outside the yard, rinsing the dirt from his legs and gesturing at Akali with his hands, as if to signal her to stop. But Akali just turned around and responded with a smile, continuing to break down the firewood like twisting twists.
Looking at this scene, Mo Bei couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He thought to himself, how could a girl chop wood as soon as she got home, in such an unusual way.
At this moment, Akali also turned her head and saw him directly through a row of hedges. She suddenly looked happy and a little embarrassed. She looked around, then dropped the wood and came out.
Tim followed the direction Akali ran out and saw Mo Bei coming to the door, with a gentle smile on his face, and he didn't seem surprised.
The aunt dressed as an ordinary woman also appeared at the door. She put her hands in front of her eyes and looked out with squinted eyes.
"You're here." Akali stood in front of Mo Bei, her bright eyes slightly gleaming, looking a little shy.
Girls are mostly like this. Even if they have established a relationship, in front of their elders, even with Akali's bubbly personality, she inadvertently shows a hint of shyness.
"Um."
Mo Bei nodded, and then Akali took his arm and pulled him into the courtyard gate. He felt so happy and filled with a warm feeling of happiness.
The uncle and aunt still looked like they were not very good at talking. Facing Mo Bei's greetings, they just smiled and nodded, but there was recognition in their eyes.
The juniors in front of them grew upright and had clear eyes, which left a good impression on them. Moreover, in their eyes, job transferees who could leave here and go elsewhere were already very powerful. They could take care of each other outside. A little bit is better than anything else.
As soon as he entered the house, Mo Bei took out a wooden box from the inventory. As soon as Tim saw his move, he hurriedly took a step forward and held down his hand:
"You... don't take anything out! We don't lack anything, we don't lack anything..."
Mo Bei didn't expect that his action would cause such a big reaction from the other party, but he still smiled and said:
"This is the tobacco from Kurast. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
As he spoke, he opened the box, revealing bright brown cigarettes. The craftsmanship was far less sophisticated than the cigars in the original world, but they had a different simplicity.
The last time he came here, he noticed that Tim's right index finger and thumb were yellow, which was caused by smoking on the mouth of the pipe for a long time. He was obviously a long-time smoker, so he took advantage of it.
As he spoke, he took out another object the size of the palm of his hand, which looked like a dragon beast. As soon as he pressed the mechanism, a faint red light would emit from the open beast's mouth, emitting heat outwards.
This is what Iqir got in exchange for the job transfers from Kaldeum. Like the music box that Perona picked up, it is also a small magical object powered by embedded rubies. To put it bluntly, it is the same as the music box that Perona picked up. A lighter is almost the same.
However, just to reduce the size, it was necessary to use inlaid grooves with spatial attributes, which seemed extremely luxurious, and Mo Bei felt crazy when he first got this thing.
But in the final analysis, this was still better than the Wanci matches filled with kerosene, so I took them out together.
Unsurprisingly, Tim suddenly had a strange look on his face, feeling both excited and embarrassed.
Mo Bei had quick eyes and quick hands and stuffed the thing out before the other party felt embarrassed.
He also knew that bringing out a lot of things like last time would definitely make the other party feel uncomfortable, so he only carefully selected two items.
It's definitely not easy to favor one thing over another, and the things he prepared for Aunt Akali were the things he really put his effort into.
Mo Bei opened a small long box and took out a pair of glasses polished with crystal.
The last time he and Akali talked about the topic that village residents rarely lighted lamps after dark, he remembered that this aunt always habitually half-squinted her eyes when looking at things and looked closer.
People who often rush to do some embroidery work when it is getting dark are prone to myopia. He happened to remember how to calculate the degree based on the focal length, so he practiced polishing and polishing repeatedly whenever he had time, and finally made it. Such a pair of low-power myopia glasses.
Under Mo Bei's explanation, her aunt put the strange-looking thing in front of her eyes and looked at it. She couldn't help but be startled, put it down and blinked, then picked it up again, and finally opened her mouth in surprise.
"Put it on and see if you feel any discomfort." Mo Bei asked.
Auntie shook her head, looking a little excited:
"No...no, I can see things much more clearly! You...must be a mage, right!?"
