Chapter 61

==================

At the same time, another possibility emerged in Lian Yun's mind.

I must not be the only one who thought of using God to make a fuss.

Are there many organizations now that are secretly using the guise of "God" to win over people and make profits?

"My Lord, are you still worried about this?" Mary called her softly.

Lian Yun came back to his senses and thought for a moment, "I was wondering, what would happen if we told the public that a divine oracle had descended upon Bubu Town?"

Will a lot of people flock to the town, and then the town will develop greatly, and she will be able to take a big step closer to her ultimate mission in an instant.

Meili thought about the various possibilities and slowly shook her head: "It's very dangerous."

"Why?"

"Humans are much more complicated than plants." Mary smiled.

She didn't need to say much, Lian Yun could easily figure it out after calming down.

This is also why Gary often reminds her not to reveal the fact that she has countless gold coins.

A tall tree attracts the wind; even a god is coveted by countless people.

"Everyone believes in the existence of God, but not everyone respects Him. For some with ill intentions, freedom is more like a secret code that holds the secret to all the wealth in the world. Possessing it gives one the power to control everything."

Lian Yun continued, "So, until the town becomes strong enough, there will be no gods in Bubu Town."

Meili and Lianyun looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

At this time, the molten crystal in Meili's hand made a sound again.

Mary listened carefully.

"It said...it's too late today, and urged me to rest early and do the task tomorrow."

Quite humane.

"I'll have to ask you to explain this matter clearly to everyone tomorrow. By the way, we collected a lot of new seeds in Kuoge City this time. You can find some time to plant them and see how they go."

Lian Yun handed her the seeds and said goodbye to her.

When walking towards her home, Lian Yun saw people coming out of the tavern holding the gifts they had received and greeting her happily.

Lian Yun sincerely feels that the money is well spent as it can make everyone happy.

Each of them received one piece of clothing and equipment they brought back, and the rest were hung in the renovated clothing store and had to be exchanged for points.

When there are more residents, Lian Yun can discuss with Gary about exchanging points for gold coins so that everyone can use a common currency.

Just now in the tavern, Lian Yun introduced the three teachers brought this time to Gary. Gary will expedite the school plan. Buck took the initiative to offer to help them share the pressure, so the blueprint of the mission hall was given to Buck.

After all necessary preparations were made, Lian Yun finally let go of his forced spirit and returned to his residence.

Lanner had also returned. He looked at the exhausted Lian Yun with some concern. Lian Yun gave him a reassuring smile: "Don't forget to choose a profession tomorrow before you leave."

"Okay." Lana knew that Lian Yun had her own arrangements, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Lian Yun dragged himself upstairs, pushed open the bedroom door, and was so shocked by the object in front of him that his sleepiness instantly disappeared.

Lina, who was hiding behind the door, touched her nose. She knew that the surprise that everyone had carefully prepared would be distracted by something else. She tried hard to push away the giant beside her, trying to show what was behind the giant, but the giant pushed back without giving in.

"Sister! You're back! Look at the bed we prepared specially for you! How is it?" Lina squeezed hard and smiled through gritted teeth.

"Very, very good..."

Lian Yun recognized that the thing that was almost squeezed out of the window was called a "bed", and it was similar to the style she wanted, so she was naturally very happy.

But this joy was obviously washed away by the shock before him.

Please tell her that this round ball that is half the size of a room and is white except for a pair of black eyes must not be "Little" Bai, right?

"Master~ I miss you so much!"

Lian Yun would never mistake this familiar baby voice.

But she still found it hard to understand.

She knew that Xiaobai was a mutant rat, but does mutation mean becoming abnormally large?

The black eyes suddenly became watery, and the giant sniffed its pink little nose a few times, feeling very aggrieved: "I eat by my own ability."

After hearing its brief and fragmented explanation, Lian Yun realized that it had indeed been relying on hunting to get enough food.

The little frog can also control the big frog to fight with it, but this is easy for Xiaobai.

"I ate too much without realizing it."

Xiaobai burst into tears, feeling so wronged.

Lian Yun couldn't bear to say anything more: "Alright, alright, you've already dealt a dimensionality reduction blow to the frog. Go out with Lanner tomorrow. There are many monsters outside, and they won't be that easy to fight."

After many days of training, Xiaobai no longer had the timidity and shyness he had before. When he heard Lian Yun's arrangements, he no longer had any resistance. Instead, he was happy that his master did not despise him.

After sending away Xiaobai who occupied the room, Lian Yun finally threw himself comfortably onto the new bed.

The head of the bed was placed against the wall, and there were smooth brackets at the four corners supporting the off-white bed curtains. This was specially bought by Lian Yun, and I don’t know when they fixed it in place.

The quilt was made of animal skin, soft and warm. The pillow was also soft, Lina said it was filled with the hair that Xiaobai had shed.

All in all, this bed filled everyone's hearts.

Lian Yun untied his cloak, rested his head on the soft pillow, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

This night was the most peaceful night for her.

The next day she was awakened by the noise of the crowd. Waking up from her 1.8-meter-tall bed, Lian Yun felt as if she had returned to her own world. She was awakened by the square dance music in the community at 7 o'clock every morning.

Lian Yun walked to the window with sleepy eyes, pushed it open, and the fresh air and the noise of the crowd rushed in.

Lian Yun understood without much thought that the sound came from the altar not far away.

Bubu Town is welcoming its first batch of residents with jobs.

"The Lord is here."

Lian Yun changed his clothes and came to join in the fun. From a distance, he saw a group of people chattering around the golden sunflower. Some of those who were level 5 were already talking to the elves in the molten crystal, while those who had no elves following them were looking at them with curiosity.

When everyone saw her coming, they quickly made way for her.

"How about it?"

Level 8 Gerry held the molten crystal in his hand and nodded at Lian Yun with a slight smile. "I'm still choosing a profession. They gave me a few options: blacksmith, administrator, and architect."

Gerry looked at Rong Jing with some difficulty in making a decision: "Can't we choose both?"

The elf gave the correct answer: No.

"Once you really choose a career, you will have to put in much more energy and effort to study it than before," Lian Yun explained.

After thinking for a moment, Gerry chose the career of administrator.

"Where is Lana?" Lian Yun turned to Lana, who had already put away the molten crystal.

"Knight," Lanner responded. "It leaves me no other choice."

Lian Yun also found it quite amazing that Lana was the first person not to be chosen: "Wait a minute."

She remembered that there would be descriptions of existing professions in the career system.

Sure enough, when I opened the career panel, an explanation about [Knight] was displayed: the predecessor of the Knight was a Brave Warrior, and he could be upgraded to a Knight after his attack power was greater than level 5.

The same type includes shield warriors, who are required to have a defense greater than level five, and warriors, who are required to have excellent comprehensive physical fitness in all aspects.

For people like Lanner who have high attack power and focus on offense, knights are indeed the best choice.

Jamie, who had just reached level five, chose the warrior profession.

"It just so happens that I have to escort a caravan away today, and the task assigned to me includes fighting monsters. I can solve them on the way." Lanna said.

"That would be great."

Lian Yun gave him a few more reminders, asking him to ensure his own safety and to make sure his equipment was properly worn so that he would be fine even if he got hit a few times.

In the end, Lian Yun was still worried, so he stuffed him with a few more bottles of blood and medicine.

"Drink when you're thirsty, don't feel bad."

Lana glanced at the [Lv. 18] above his head and the stamina bar below, and smiled softly: "Okay."

He finally understood why Lian Yun could know his physical condition at any time.

Adults are watching him all the time.

Lana carefully put away the bottle and said goodbye to Lian Yun solemnly.

The caravan members were also ready to go. They took away the cargo boxes but left behind a few camels.

Lian Yun stood on the altar and waved to Lanna. This was the first time he and Lanna acted separately.

"Sister, are you really reluctant to leave Brother Lana?"

Lina, who was secretly sad because her level was less than level 4, stood up quietly after seeing this scene and moved closer to Lian Yun.

Lian Yun didn't think there was anything wrong and replied casually, "I can't bear to see you go out on a mission."

"Oh..." Lina nodded slightly disappointed.

"By the way, what is your occupation, sister?"

Lian Yun paused, then looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. "It says that lords cannot have professions."

Lina covered her mouth and laughed out loud. She finally found someone who couldn't have a career like her!

"I've thought it all out," Lina said with a look of longing. "I'm going to take good care of Kui Kui and the others, and then when they reach level 5, I can choose the career of a breeder!"

She heard that elves would assign professions based on their strengths and abilities.

“So as long as I specialize, I can definitely get the career I want.”

Lian Yun: ...Okay, this is very Lina.

"Where's Fiona?"

Lian Yun looked at Fiona, who had been holding the molten crystal for a long time without saying a word.

She just moved in as a resident yesterday and had to choose a career before she even got familiar with the town.

"Is it difficult?"

Fiona nodded, then quickly shook her head, her expression confused for a moment: "I just haven't found the career I want."

The elves recommended to her - puppeteer, nouveau riche, and etiquette lady.

Lian Yun also had a face full of question marks.

She knew about puppeteers, but what the hell were nouveau riche and etiquette ladies?!

Ever since Fiona came into the picture, it seems like the whole style has changed?!

"It has an explanation—" Fiona leaned close to the molten crystal in her hand, "It seems to be because of the unstable outburst two days ago. It was detected by it."

Fiona sighed softly as she spoke: "A hostess only needs to stand there and smile. I'm quite optimistic about this profession, but the premise is that there is a place in our town that needs it."

"Also..." Fiona paused, a mysterious, yearning smile appearing on her beautiful face. "Yesterday, I experienced a new job with Buck, and I think, maybe that's where I belong."

Although Lian Yun didn't know what the so-called "destination" was, it sounded very strange.

But after all, it was her personal matter, so Lian Yun didn't ask any more questions. "It's okay, you can learn from Lina and specialize in that job. When you reach a certain level of proficiency, you can choose the corresponding profession."

Fiona nodded: "I thought so too."

Fiona shook her hair and waved to Lian Yun: "Then I'll be leaving first."

Most of the people above level five in the town have chosen their careers, and Abe lived up to everyone's expectations by choosing the career of chef.

The three teachers were probably also above level five, but two of them expressed their reluctance to move into the town and become residents, so Lian Yun did not force them.

But the third teacher readily agreed to settle down in the town, and the residents arranged a house for him. So the town finally had a teacher who taught basic knowledge, and Lian Yun doubled the salary he offered.

This also motivates the residents of the town to work harder.

Anyone with recognized abilities can teach; this is the new rule set by Lian Yun.

Lian Yun could see that the other two teachers didn't seem very willing to teach. There was no shortage of chefs in the town anyway, and there was no rush for magic education, so he simply let them just participate in the design and planning of the school.

We found the brightest and most spacious empty house in the town and simply built a few desks with wooden boards.

In this way, the children can finally attend their first class in the small town.

Although the conditions were difficult, every child had a happy smile on his or her face.

As soon as the new teacher Eugene stepped into the classroom, he saw this scene and felt warm in his heart.

Lian Yun listened to a trial class in front of the classroom window. After one class, she was very satisfied with Eugene's teaching method.

He can make words and numbers vivid, concise and easy to understand, and the children in the class gain a lot.

She originally just wanted to see the teaching effect and only taught this one class before the school was built. She was also unwilling to let the children study under this condition all the time.

But after she expressed this idea, the children expressed disappointment.

They don't want good terms.

A child weakly raised his hand: "As long as we can attend class, we don't care about the environment."

The idea of ​​survival of the fittest has been deeply rooted in their hearts since childhood. It is a desire and yearning for strength and ability. Even though they now live in a small town where they have no worries about food and clothing, they will never forget this.

No child is truly a child.

At their age, they have to consider much more than what they are used to.

"We know that the town will have no protection in a year," a child whispered.

The more they learn and the faster they grow, the more chances the town has of survival.

Lian Yun really didn't expect these children to think of this.

For a moment, she was speechless.

"Sir, they are very smart." Eugene stepped forward and expressed his thoughts: "This classroom can accommodate enough students, and there are not many students now, so let everyone study here."

"What people want is not a fancy school, but a place where they can learn."

This sentence awakened Lian Yun. After some modifications, the school drawings she brought back from Kuoge City exuded a sense of exquisiteness and elegance everywhere.

But such a building is out of place in Bubu Town.

Do we really need such a school?

After leaving the classroom, Lian Yun went to find Gary and stopped the plan he was planning.

Gary listened to her idea and agreed to terminate it.

"Actually, we can continue building on the foundation of the classroom," said Gerry.

Lian Yun also had the same idea.

Since they had decided to continue in that classroom, even if everyone was not demanding on the conditions, they could not let the children keep using desks made of wooden boards.

Gerry quickly sketched out a rough idea on paper.

"It can be expanded outwards. Depending on the surrounding buildings, it can be connected to the unused houses on either side. Since the houses on both sides are larger, it will form a concave shape, and the middle part can be reserved for activities. In addition, when renovating, there will be room for a second or third floor if there are more children."

Lian Yun agreed very much. This was much more economical and faster than the previous solution.

After saying this, Gary seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"but……"

Gary glanced outside and said, "The two teachers we invited this time don't look very good."

Lian Yun was silent for a moment: "You felt it too?"

Gary smiled and said, "Last night at the pub, when we were having barbecue, the chef refused to eat meat, saying that monster meat was poisonous. Abe was just kidding."

"What about Abe?"

"Abe was so angry that he cut off their food supply. The chef spent half an hour chewing on dried parsnips while he was here this morning to work on the blueprints."

It's quite pitiful.

Lian Yun sighed: "What about the other one?"

"He didn't say anything, but it was clear that he had the same attitude as the chef."

"How about... wait for Lanner to come back and let him take them away. He's more familiar with the route," Lian Yun said as he helped Gary sort through the papers. "I don't think they really want to stay. It's a waste of time, and the food isn't to their liking."

"Yeah...right," Gerry took the blueprints Lian Yun had sorted out and shook them, "We didn't have enough meat, so I sent Jamie and the others to kill a few."

Considering that Lian Yun had previously said he wanted to set up a frog farm, Gary had been controlling the amount of meat he consumed.

"It's okay, you can handle this kind of problem yourself, no need to ask me."

The two of them had almost finished packing, Lian Yun turned around to leave, but was startled when he closed the door.

"Why are you here?"

The expressions of the chef and magician standing outside the door looked a little strange. It was unknown when they stood there.

They looked at each other, then looked at Lian Yun at the same time, with ugly smiles on their faces.

Lian Yun shook his head slightly, thinking that they were living very uncomfortably here: "Wait a few more days, I'll let Lanna take you..."

"No need!" The two of them suddenly raised their voices.

Lian Yun was stunned for a moment: "What?"

Don’t they want to stay here?

"I think that we should make the best of it and at least see the child's potential first." The magician suddenly looked very serious.

Lian Yun:?

Did she miss something?

"Yes, even if you don't have a talent for magic, cooking skills can be developed." The chef suddenly restrained his previous condescending look, and the "earnest advice" on his face made Lian Yun mistakenly think that he was driving them away.

They were originally invited here to teach. Although they didn't know what happened and suddenly changed their personalities, their ultimate purpose remained unchanged.

Lian Yun asked tentatively: "Then we..."

"Let's go and see it now!" they both shouted.

Lian Yun had no choice but to take them to the classroom.

Everyone had just finished lunch and rushed to the first class of the afternoon.

Lian Yun brought the magician to the front of the classroom and introduced him to the neatly seated group, "This one was invited here together..."

"Joel." The magician smiled.

"Okay, Teacher Joel." Lian Yun walked off the stage. "First, he will test your magical talents to see if you are suitable for learning magic."

The children looked at each other and nodded silently.

Joel took out a crystal ball. In order to prevent them from thinking that he was fooling them, he took out the most beautiful crystal ball in his collection.

Joel placed the crystal ball on the podium and smiled kindly at the children: "Now I need you to put your hands on it, and your talent will be revealed on it."

The talent test officially began. Except for Buck who was helping Gerry, and Bart and Mary who already had their own clear goals, the remaining ten children spontaneously stood in a line and stepped forward one by one in an orderly manner.

The first child carefully placed his palm on it, and Joel opened his eyes wide and looked at the crystal clear crystal ball.

No response.

Joel pursed his lips. Although it was the same as he had expected, he couldn't be happy.

"Next one."

The second child...the third, the fourth.

Until the eighth one, the crystal ball still did not move.

Joel's lip began to tremble and he stared at the crystal ball.

No, even if there really isn't...

When the ninth child walked up to the podium and gently placed his hand on the crystal ball, Joel secretly hooked his fingers, and the crystal ball emitted a subtle change from the center inside.

It is a drop of water condensed in the center.

This drop of water with a faint blue glow can be seen from all directions.

Joel breathed a sigh of relief calmly and smiled. "Great! It seems this child has a talent for water magic. This drop of water is proof of it. Although the talent is a little small, it doesn't matter. I can..."

Joel was talking to himself when he suddenly realized that no one's eyes were on him.

Joel looked down and saw that the drop of water in the center of the crystal ball was getting bigger and bigger, and was about to spread to the entire crystal ball.

"This..." Joel was stunned.

Before he could make any move, a layer of frost quickly extended from under the girl's palm.

In a flash, snow-white frost covered the entire crystal ball.

Joel and the chef stared at the girl in amazement. Joel was a little incoherent: "You, you are very powerful. This is a rare ice magic."

Even in the current Magicians Association, there are only a handful of people who possess the talent for ice magic.

Although the ice type grows very slowly in the early stages, once it is effectively trained and grown, it will become an extremely powerful existence.

Joel couldn't imagine that there would be an ice talent in a town "like this".

"Yes, thank you for telling me." The girl withdrew her hand and the frost slowly melted.

After saying this, the girl turned and left, seemingly unaware of what her ability meant.

Joel saw it and was anxious. He couldn't even sit on the stool and wanted to pull the girl.

But he was stopped by a little boy.

That was the last boy who hadn't taken the test: "Teacher, are you going to watch me finish the test?"

Joel was about to speak when he noticed Lian Yun looking at him with raised eyebrows.

He swallowed the unspoken rejection, sat back silently, and watched the girl walk away anxiously.

"You start." Joel nodded quickly at the boy, signaling him to move faster.

The boy was also very quick and put his hand on the crystal ball without saying a word.

The frost on the surface of the crystal ball melted quickly, and everyone couldn't help but stare at the crystal ball until they saw a small ball of red burning inside - flame?

Joel's mind went blank for a moment, and a bad premonition came to his mind.

The next second, a crisp "click" sound came from the crystal ball.
