Chapter 23 Three Updates in One "First, I owe tens or hundreds of millions of gold coins...
After Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang suddenly disappeared in the bedroom, Leo and Pereira slept on the floor at the door and started playing cards because they were too bored.
When Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang opened the door and came out, Pereira was drawing circles on Leo's face: "You're back... huh?"
Xia Xifeng rushed out the door, picked up Perilla and cried.
Pereira said in embarrassment: "Don't hold me like a child!" People with long legs are the most annoying!
Qin Lang walked towards Leo.
Leo crossed his arms to protect his chest and asked cautiously, "Are you going to pick me up too?"
Qin Lang said, "I have gained some experience in combat. Shall we practice?"
Leo thought for a moment and stretched out his arms. "Why don't you just hold one? Look, Feng hugged Perilla and cried as soon as he came back, but you just wanted to fight with me. I feel like I'm being treated differently, and I'm not comfortable."
Qin Lang frowned.
Xia Xifeng let go of Pereira who was pushing his face, picked up Leo, and continued to sob.
Leo was amused by Xia Xifeng's crying face. "Why are you crying? You're crying as if Perilla and I are not only dead, but also died miserably."
Xia Xifeng cried even louder.
Perilla straightened her clothes and said, "Lang, Leo and I are not going to die miserably, are we?"
Qin Lang said: "You will not die."
Perilla smiled and stopped asking, "The wind won't stop crying for a while, why don't we practice?"
Qin Lang said: "Okay."
He had just informed Amuruo that he and Xia Xifeng had successfully completed their mission and returned.
Amuruo replied "OK" and told Qin Lang to take good care of Xia Xifeng and not to reveal the future too directly because of being too excited.
As for how to find an excuse, the prophecy book that Suer prepared for Xia Xifeng is the template.
Qin Lang remembered the system's reminder. Can Xia Xifeng, a naive person who can't keep secrets, really be a good prophet?
He still thought about how to bypass the professional restrictions, learned the Silence Technique, and manually made Xia Xifeng shut up.
Qin Lang and Pereira returned from their practice and learned about what happened the day he was away. Xia Xifeng was already in the kitchen. He asked Leo to order whatever he wanted and he would prepare a big meal for Leo and Pereira.
Pereira was a little afraid to eat this big meal.
Looking at the sumptuousness of the meal, he always felt that it was linked to the tragic death of him and Leo.
Pereira didn't know about prophets, but as long as there was a world where supernormal abilities existed, prophets would not be uncommon.
The difference between a prophet and a seer is that the prophet's predictions "have no world destiny of their own", but as long as they predict, they can definitely change the future.
Prophets would pretend to be ordinary fortune tellers. The prophecy book Su Er gave Xia Xifeng was a teaching material for the prophet's acting skills.
Halfling elders more or less possessed some ability to divine. Perilla, the most favored of the Day of Hope, sometimes possessed visions of the future, such as premonitions.
Suer misled everyone around him into thinking that he was a "powerful fortune teller", and Pereira thought that Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang were also the same people favored by God.
So he had already guessed something about Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang's "retreat".
In fact, Pereira's guess was not wrong, it was just that he did not know the specialness of the prophet.
After a meal that foreshadowed her bleak future, Pereira lost her appetite.
Leo also guessed it. He enjoyed the meal very much and even wanted to take advantage of the miserable future that had not yet come to eat a few more meals with Xia Xifeng.
Xia Xifeng patted his chest and said it was no problem. Perilla couldn't stand Leo's shamelessness, so she tied Leo up with vines and threw him out of the window.
"Ignore him," Pereira said. "You have a lot to do and don't have time to spend in the kitchen."
Xia Xifeng originally wanted to say that it was just cooking a meal and it wouldn’t take too much time.
Qin Lang: [Don't be too enthusiastic, it will scare them.]
Xia Xifeng: [I can't help it.]
Qin Lang: [I couldn't help but read a book.]
Xia Xifeng's mouth twitched. Thinking of all the books he still had to read, his mood instantly darkened.
"Okay." Xia Xifeng said, "I'll call you when I try the new dishes."
Perella nodded.
Although I don’t want to trouble Xia Xifeng, I still have to eat the new dishes.
After calming down a little, Xia Xifeng made a list of things to do, and suddenly he felt overwhelmed.
Looking at this long list of plans, it seems that I really don’t have time to be sad about the passing of time.
The system's rewards have arrived.
In addition to regular rewards such as money, experience, and materials, the system also rewards a piece of "sun fragment".
[“Sun Fragment”: A fragment of the godhead of the Day of Hope. I don’t know what it is used for yet, but it can’t be eaten.]
Xia Xifeng guessed that the Fallen Sun quest chain would reward "Sun Fragments".
He was very curious whether the "sun fragments" could be pieced together to form a sun after completing all the tasks.
However, the Day of Hope in their world is still "alive", and it should be impossible to create a second Day of Hope.
Really looking forward to the sequel.
Although Xia Xifeng was very upset by Leo and Pereira's original tragic fate, he saw that Qin Lang could still easily defeat the evil god alone after reaching the maximum level. Although he had no combat skills, his maximum defense allowed him to withstand the evil god's ultimate move and run around, and he could also add buffs to Qin Lang. Xia Xifeng's fear after coming to this world was reduced a lot.
The power of player accounts was exaggerated in the game, with everyone treating the gods like cash machines. Only when participating in Outer God activities would players be forced to team up with NPCs. But when the game became a reality, Xia Xifeng felt uneasy.
Knowing that their combat power in reality was similar to that of the player characters in the game, or even a little stronger, Xia Xifeng thought that he would definitely not have nightmares at night.
Xia Xifeng touched his chin. He decided to try getting into Qin Lang's bed again tonight and see if he wouldn't wake him up this time.
Qin Lang felt a chill.
He turned his gaze to Xia Xifeng without hesitation.
Xia Xifeng said with a straight face: "Why are you looking at me?"
Qin Lang looked away. Sure enough, it was Xia Xifeng who was plotting something bad. He needed to be more vigilant.
After half a day of sorting out their emotions, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang returned to their normal selves.
Perilla breathed a sigh of relief. He really couldn't stand Xia Xifeng's corny manners.
Leo felt very sorry. He had thought he could enjoy a few more days of feasting.
That night, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang quietly came to Green Sand City with the dwarf girl Lana.
This was Lana's own request.
Xia Xifeng felt sorry for Lana because she had encountered such a cruel disaster and was mentally traumatized.
Since the shadow monster has been controlled by the city lord, Leo and Pereira will definitely be able to protect Lana if they are prepared.
It might be better for Lana's body and mind to recuperate in the Knight Territory.
But Lana hopes to go to Green Sand City.
The clever Lana has guessed that her father has also been "resurrected" by the shadow monster.
Hatred did not cause Lana to collapse further. After talking everything out and taking a day's rest, the dwarf girl quickly recovered.
Lana said, "I think the city lord might need me. If I stand in front of Dad, the monster disguised as Dad will definitely be exposed. I want to avenge Dad."
In the communicator, Amuruo's phantom was very serious.
He said, "Lana, you are still a child. I will avenge you, don't worry."
Lana shook her head. "I will personally avenge my father and my uncles and aunts. When our family migrated, we left behind a motto: 'There are no children in the face of disaster.' Our ancestors were also children when they migrated. I believe the strange monsters I encountered must be the prelude to disaster."
Lana, who was so broken down that she couldn't speak two days ago, now looks as mature as an adult.
Amuruo agreed to Lana's request.
He thought to himself with self-mockery, it’s a good thing that Suer is in seclusion.
Sur has a kind heart that can't help but dote on good cubs of all races who are kind and well-behaved.
Suer believes that children in disaster situations should be free from worries. His dream is to prevent all disasters from happening to children.
This unrealistic dream is probably the reason why Heavenly Father chose Sur to be a prophet.
Is Xia Xifeng also such a person?
Amuruo smiled.
Fortunately, fate had already caught Su Er's eye. The one who would have the biggest headache next wasn't him, but Qin Lang.
He is very optimistic about Qin Lang. He believes that Qin Lang will be able to grow rapidly just like himself while worrying about his beloved.
Amuruo once loved this world deeply. But Suer loved this world too much, and Amuruo almost rebelled for a while and became world-weary.
"Sul, I heard from Pereira and Leo that when the little prophet returned, he hugged them and cried very sadly." Amuruo walked into the room where Sul was in seclusion.
Sur's retreat is to transform into a shrunken black dragon and sleep in his crystal nest.
No one else can come in, but wherever Suer is, Amuruo can go. He and Suer are one, even if Suer is meditating, he will not disturb him.
Amuruo played with the tip of Sur's tail and said, "It seems that you have been captured by fate this time. Fate has taken away a lot from us. You must wake up quickly, otherwise I will make trouble."
To save the world, the object of salvation is “the world” rather than a specific individual or group of creatures.
In order to save the world, sometimes drastic measures are more effective, but Su Er doesn't allow that. He loves all the kind creatures in the world.
"But if you can't wake up in time, I'll have to resort to violence to protect the child under our wing. It doesn't matter if I kill the wrong person. As long as I kill enough of them, those bastards in the dark sewers will inevitably jump out. Although you will be angry, I was forced into action, and you will forgive me."
Amuruo smirked.
The tip of Sur's tail flicked, as if he felt the threat from Amuruo.
Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang have arrived, and Amuruo has left Suer's room.
He put away the expression on his face that was not in line with the temperament of a city lord, and resumed the majestic appearance of a city lord in front of strangers.
Lana lifted the hem of her skirt and greeted Amuruo.
Her hands were shaking slightly, but her eyes were firm.
Amuruo pointed to the chair next to him and asked Lana to sit down. "Sit down for a while. I need to contact someone. He's putting on airs and has to leave me alone for a while before he's willing to communicate directly with me."
Amuruo asked someone to serve Lana black tea with a lot of milk and sugar to calm her nervousness.
Just as he was about to ask Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang what they wanted to drink, he saw a book spread out on Xia Xifeng's lap: "What are you doing?"
Xia Xifeng said, "Seize every spare moment to study."
Amuruo laughed: "Okay, very good. If you have any questions, ask Sur... Ask Damon."
Damon, who was acting as a water pourer, said: "???"
Since Mr. Sur was not around, my uncle didn't even consider me his nephew, he just treated me as a laborer.
Damon smiled tiredly and nodded, "Well, ask me and I'll teach you."
He didn't want to teach the young couple at all, the atmosphere was too awkward.
"Qin Lang, Pereira said your combat skills have improved a lot. It's as if you're not a true novice like him and Leo, but rather have acquired the power suppression rune." Amuruo said, "You and Xia Xifeng will stay in the castle today. Tomorrow I will test how much your strength has grown."
Qin Lang thanked him and said, "Okay. Thank you Mr. Amuruo for your guidance."
After chatting for a few words, the big mirror in front of Amuruo finally emitted light.
The contact was connected.
Before the figure in the large mirror appeared, Amuruo sarcastically said, "Meet the great Dwarf King Firebeard VII. You are such a busy man! Even when your own people are in trouble, you make me wait half a day before responding."
In the mirror, the burly dwarf, his long braided red beard glowing faintly like a flame, sneered, "If you don't care about your people, what qualifications do you, a mere city lord, have to communicate directly with me?"
Amuruo raised an eyebrow: "Do I have the right to strip you naked and hang you on the cliff before you become the Dwarf King?"
Huoxu VII clenched the golden hammer that symbolized the scepter in his hand.
If Amuruo was in front of him, he would definitely smash Amuruo's head with the golden hammer!
After he became king, he secretly vowed to kill Amuruo and destroy Green Sand City.
However, the Dwarf Kingdom and Green Sand City signed a permanent peace agreement. If he wanted to secure his position as the Dwarf King, he could not take the initiative to send troops, but could only lie in wait and look for opportunities.
Amuruo has always looked down on Huoxu VII, who is ambitious but lacks the talent to match his ambition.
The only advantage of Firebeard VII is that no matter how much ambition and selfishness he has, he will never put it above the entire Dwarf Kingdom.
If the conflict only occurred between Greensand City and the dwarves, Firebeard VII might seize this opportunity to disgust Amurro and try every possible means to provoke conflict with Greensand City in order to create disputes and seize the land in the "Wasteland" that has been cultivated by the Free Alliance.
But Huoxu VII did not care about the death of one or two dwarves. When he saw that a monster whose appearance could not appear in the photo could actually replace the dwarves that had been killed, his intuition as the dwarf king sounded the alarm.
No matter how much Huoxu Seventh hated Amuruo, he had to admit that Amuruo was very powerful.
If he hadn't happened to rescue the survivors and obtained the photo stone, even Amuruo wouldn't have been able to discover that the dwarf had been replaced by a monster.
Huoxu VII knew without hesitation how dangerous it would be if the dwarves replaced by monsters returned to the dwarf kingdom.
This time he did not respond to Amuruo's contact immediately, not because he was deliberately putting on airs as usual, but because he had been in a meeting for a long time.
Huoxu VII summoned his confidants to discuss how to guard against attacks from unknown monsters.
Should we inform the human and elven empires? Should we send an envoy to Green Sand City? Who should we send as an envoy?
Huoxu VII did not want to be looked down upon by Amuruo, so he had to come up with a feasible plan before meeting Amuruo to prove that he was a wise king.
When Xia Xifeng saw Huoxu Qishi, although he tried his best to keep a straight face, his eyes could not hide his disgust and anger.
To avoid being noticed, Xia Xifeng lowered his head and stared at the book open on his knees.
Qin Lang: [In reality, he might not only not be an enemy, but also a comrade.]
Xia Xifeng: [Stop talking, I'm already starting to feel sick.]
After Xia Xifeng was disgusted by Qin Lang's words, the hostility he had towards the Dwarf King disappeared.
"Don't take your anger out on the people of this world for things that happen in other worlds, and don't let prejudice blind you," Xia Xifeng warned himself.
Amuruo also discovered Xia Xifeng's dislike for the Dwarf King.
As he expected, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang's mission this time should be a future where Leo and Pereira will step into death.
Leo and Pereira are both dead, and the two suns in the sky are probably in danger.
(Beep—) The end of the world.
The dwarves, replaced by monsters, had caused trouble in Green Sand City or Sunflower Valley, leading to the tragedy of Leo and Pereira. Based on Amuruo's understanding of the Dwarf King, he must have deliberately shielded the dwarves to disgust him, thus fueling this tragedy.
He was thinking about whether to advise Xia Xifeng from the perspective of a senior, telling him not to be blinded by the prejudices of another world, otherwise he would not be able to control the future, but would be led by the future. Or he should first use the excuse of venting his anger for the other children to beat the Dwarf King severely, and then advise him as a senior.
What a good excuse! Even if he beat the dwarf king and caused political trouble, Sur would definitely not be angry.
While Amuruo was still thinking, the disgust towards the Dwarf King in Xia Xifeng's eyes faded.
Xia Xifeng adjusted his mentality.
As expected of a young prophet. Amuruo regretfully gave up his plan.
The content of the meeting was important, but the entire meeting process was dull and tedious.
Even though the danger is right in front of them, the Dwarf King and his trusted ministers still have to consider the impact on the public, allies, and friendly countries.
The world is about to end, what impact are you still considering? This world won't last long enough for your son to succeed to the throne.
Amuruo's face was full of annoyance. He suppressed his impatience and discussed politics with the Dwarf King.
Fortunately, the Dwarf King still knows what is important and has sent the only great sage of the Dwarf tribe to Green Sand City to deal with this group of monsters together with Amuruo.
Dwarves are generally not good at magic, but there are always magical geniuses among their tribe who are naturally very compatible with the magic network. These dwarves who are good at magic will be absorbed into the Dwarven Sage's Court.
The development of dwarven magical technology is led by the Sages' Court. The Great Sage is the leader of the Sages' Court, and his status is second only to the Dwarf King.
Dwarf sages are born academic geeks and technology geeks. They don't care about the politics of the Dwarf Kingdom at all. Apart from academic and technical exchanges, they rarely leave the Sage's Court.
The Dwarf King persuaded the Great Sage to come to Green Sand City in person, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.
If Huoxu Seventh had not been decisive in dealing with major issues, Amuruo would not have just stripped this man naked and hung him on the cliff.
After reluctantly reaching a consensus, Amuruo agreed not to inform the Elf Empire and the Human Empire of this matter before the arrival of the Great Sage.
Amuruo had no intention of involving more forces before gaining more information.
Not only might this alert the enemy, but the Elf Empire, the Human Empire and the Dwarf Kingdom have been at peace for too long. Whenever they speak, they talk about politics. As long as the end of the world is not in sight, they always think about pursuing their own interests, which is really annoying.
The dwarf king breathed a sigh of relief.
This time he managed to get through Amuruo's bottom line.
"Your name is Lana, right? Good girl, I will definitely avenge you. Wait patiently for the arrival of our great sage, and everything will be fine." The Dwarf King spoke to Lana in a gentle tone, "You are very strong, and you are worthy of our name of dwarf."
Lana saluted the Dwarf King excitedly.
The Dwarf King turned his gaze towards Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang: "Amuruo, won't you introduce these two to me?"
"Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang, humans, are Green Sand City's new pioneering knights," Amuruo said. "Their surnames come first, their given names come last. They come from a distant island nation in the Illusory Sea. They happened to save Lana. Xia Xifeng is Su'er's disciple, not mine. Please take good care of him when he travels to the Dwarf Kingdom."
The Dwarf King snorted coldly and said, "Of course I will take care of Mr. Sur's disciples. You're saying this as if I've ever troubled your disciples? The grudge between you and me won't harm the younger generation."
"Oh." Amuruo answered perfunctorily.
If he hadn't seen the hatred in Xia Xifeng's eyes towards the Dwarf King, he would have really believed it.
However, from the perspective of the Dwarf King, the reason he sheltered the dwarves was probably not to embarrass the "younger ones", but rather due to complex political considerations.
Tsk, bullshit politics.
After finishing the serious business, there was nothing more to chat about given the bad personal relationship between Amuruo and the Dwarf King.
They exchanged a few pleasantries and then hung up.
"Okay, the matter is resolved." Amuruo said calmly, "Lana, you can stay in the city lord's mansion peacefully. When the dwarf sage arrives, I will take you to see your father's body."
Lana wiped her tears and said, "Yes, City Lord!"
"Go to bed early tonight. Don't worry about this matter. Study hard and fulfill your duties as pioneer knights." Amuruo said, "The arrival of the great dwarf sage is a good opportunity for you to borrow some manpower to help build the pioneer territory. The dwarfs' craftsmanship is quite good."
Go find the dwarven envoys to build a city for themselves? Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang looked at each other in confusion.
Okay, since Mr. Amuruo said so, they will give it a try when the time comes.
As Amuruo said, the reason why a conspiracy is a conspiracy is that it cannot be exposed to the sun.
After they were all alert, the dwarf caravan was very well-behaved, just like normal dwarves, and did not cause any conflicts in Green Sand City.
Amuruo found an excuse to close the entrance of Sunflower Valley and not allow outsiders to enter.
Xia Xifeng remembered that the trigger of this conspiracy was Rosie's murder by the dwarves. He signaled Leo to send Rosie to keep Lana company.
"Lana is all alone and definitely needs the company of friends of the same age." Xia Xifeng thought he had found an impeccable excuse.
Leo agreed readily.
Turning his back, his face darkened.
Pereira patted Leo's shoulder and silently comforted him.
Leo is very attached to his family and dotes on his sister. If anything happens to Rosie, Leo will go crazy.
Could it be that Leo had gone mad because of Rosie's accident, and that he and Leo had perished together? Pereira had a wild imagination.
He shook his head vigorously. "We are so lucky to have met Feng and Lang. It must be the sun blessing us."
Leo took a deep breath and managed to regain his composure: "Yeah. I've always had good luck, but you've always had bad luck."
Pereira: “???”
I comfort you, and you still insult me?
Pereira raised his staff.
There was a commotion, and Xia Xifeng leaned out the window. "Qin Lang, Leo and Pereira are fighting again. Do they fight every day? It's so boring."
Qin Lang: "Very boring."
Xia Xifeng sighed: "Seeing them so lively every day, I can't feel sad anymore."
Qin Lang: "That's perfect. You haven't finished reading the book yet, so you don't have time to be sad."
Xia Xifeng was mad: "Qin Lang, you are so boring!"
Qin Lang didn't even raise his head and continued reading.
I have to watch it anyway, so there’s no point in procrastinating.
…
As Amuruo said, Qin Lang and Xia Xifeng would not need to be involved in what happened next.
By using the teleportation array and teleportation scroll at all costs, and including the preparations of gathering manpower, the dwarf sage arrived at Green Sand City in just one day.
The great sage of the dwarf came in a swagger with the "dwarf envoys" under the pretext of visiting the master magician Sur - although Sur was still meditating.
Even if he is not keen on politics, the dwarf sage is very cunning and has a lot of experience.
He visited the dwarf caravan very kindly, cared about their lives, praised their adventurous spirit, and encouraged them to continue to open up new trade routes.
The members of the dwarf caravan were flattered and very excited.
The dwarf sage sighed to Amuruo, "If Lana wasn't still alive and the image stone hadn't been monitored and proven correct, I really wouldn't believe they'd been replaced by monsters."
Amuruo said: "This is the dwarf ancestor god blessing the dwarf kingdom."
The dwarf sage smiled and said, "Yes."
The unknown enemy's conspiracy had no flaws. Even Amuruo could not detect their abnormality, but they missed the weakest little girl.
The little girl happened to be swallowed by a scorpion and happened to meet the hunting Green Sand City pioneer knight.
This series of "coincidences" is really the blessing of our ancestors.
"After careful investigation, I found gaps in their memories," said the dwarf sage, "especially Lana's father, Jim. This is our breakthrough point."
Amuruo said: "Try to consider Lana's feelings and don't do anything extreme. I don't mind it, but Suer has a bad temper."
The dwarf sage laughed: "Of course."
The dwarf sage was very excited, and the entire sage team was ready to go.
Perhaps academic geeks and technology geeks all have some "inhuman" tendencies. Although their dwarf compatriots who were devoured were pitiful, they were extremely excited when they thought that this was a monster they had never seen before.
Experiment! Experiment!
They must find out the true identity of the monster!
Amuruo's eyelids twitched.
He knew that the dwarf sage had this kind of character, which was why he didn't allow Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang to enter the city during this period.
If Sur wakes up and finds that the little prophet has been corrupted, he will go into a cold war with him.
Xia Xifeng couldn't go into the city, but he cared about what was happening there from afar.
When he heard that the city was peaceful and the residents of Green Sand City had begun to hold celebrations, he felt very complicated.
Mr. Amuruo... well, how should I put it, knowing full well that the dwarves shrouded in shadows will bring about great tragedy, he is still really leisurely.
Is this what it means to be daring because of your skill?
"Qin Lang, you have to work hard and become as strong as Mr. Amuruo. Then I can also walk sideways." Xia Xifeng hopes that his childhood sweetheart will become successful.
Qin Lang agreed and urged Xia Xifeng to quickly improve his life skills and earn money to support him.
How can you become stronger without money? Work hard.
Xia Xifeng held Hui Lan's food in his mouth and continued to work while humming.
With Green Sand City as his backing, Xia Xifeng doesn't have to worry about collecting materials at all.
It was like he had turned on the Fengling Yueying material cheat, and all he had to do was work hard to make things and sell them for money.
Damn it, why doesn't this cheat unlock level experience and skills at the same time? Xia Xifeng thought unsatisfiedly.
While Xia Xifeng was working at full capacity, Qin Lang was not idle either.
Apart from daily combat training, Qin Lang was almost entirely responsible for city construction.
Without a preliminary plan for the Knights' Territory, they won't be able to recruit people.
There are many pioneering knights in the Free Alliance, and whether they can attract residents to move in depends entirely on the personal abilities of the pioneering knights.
Although Sur gave the two of them great convenience, in the eyes of outsiders, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang had no fame at all, and their strength was not strong. The area they chose to explore was still the most dangerous area, and few people were willing to join the Knights' Territory.
Relying on the help of half-orc friends is not a long-term solution. Xia Xifeng used his experience in playing the game of pioneering infrastructure to first build a good infrastructure and then formulate welfare policies before using money to attract the first batch of people.
Once the first batch of labor arrives and the first tax revenue is collected, adding more staff will be a snowball effect.
Urban construction in fantasy worlds, like on Earth, starts with sewer planning.
Xia Xifeng's system has built-in city construction functions, and he can quickly complete the design drawings with the help of the system.
How to coordinate the construction is Qin Lang's responsibility.
The system can only handle the general form of the city, although it can pass without details. Qin Lang and Xia Xifeng are both studying civil engineering books, and obviously they are not the kind of people who will relax on details.
Qin Lang first installed the magic network stabilizer, and subsequent construction was easier than using heavy machinery on Earth.
In the original world of "Fantasy of Wonderland" - the dream world, technological development is as fragmented as in all fantasy worlds.
The main energy source of the dream world is "magic element", which is the magical element.
Magic is everywhere. The God of Magic is the innate deity who controls the concept of magic. He generously shares magic with everyone, using his divine power to soothe it. With a high enough affinity for magic, even children can safely use magic.
Magical elements can enter plants and animals, and can also be stored in minerals.
The magic element relying on divine power is almost endless. As long as it is used properly, it will be a clean energy with extremely high energy conversion efficiency.
Any nuclear fusion on Earth would be ashamed of itself when compared to magic energy.
If magic energy is so convenient, then the technological level of the dream world must be very high, right?
In fact, the skill tree of magic energy has been very high.
Whether it's the city construction speed that's comparable to 3D printing, or the teleportation technology that can span half a planet or even the subspace plane, it can be seen that the magical technology that relies on magic energy has reached a very advanced level.
However, these convenient magical technologies are difficult to be widely used by civilians.
The reason is that magic elements are too easily controlled by intelligent creatures.
On Earth, if you want to cut a power line and cause a city-wide power outage, it is not easy at all, and you will almost certainly be caught.
In the dream world, a world where individuals possess great power, it is too easy to tamper with the magic wire.
Not to mention intentional tampering, even a fight between two big guys could cause a shock to the magic network.
To avoid this problem, the city needs to build a large magic network stabilizer to eliminate factors that interfere with the magic network.
The city must also have a complete defense system to prevent anyone from invading the magic wire circuit.
To maintain the infrastructure of magical technology in the city, you can imagine how much it costs and how strong and stable the ruling class needs to be.
There are the two empires and the Dwarf Kingdom. Apart from the capital, only a few large cities can popularize magical technology in their inner cities.
Taking Green Sand City as an example, only the core inner city has fully popularized magical technology.
Outside the inner city, even magic carts cannot be driven on the road at will and must use animal power.
Without the magic network stabilizer to force the magic element to be "lazy", a bad guy with dark intentions could quietly throw down a scroll in the shadows, causing the magic car on the road to lose control and crash into the crowd.
Thanks to Sul's own subsidies, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang's knights were able to use a small magic network stabilizer from the beginning, and its range was roughly a small town of 10,000 people.
The living conditions in the knight's territory that can use the magic network stabilizer are completely incomparable to those in ordinary towns.
The magic network stabilizer and magic infrastructure both consume a large amount of magic ore, and the materials used to draw the magic wire circuits are not cheap either.
If they could build the town according to the blueprint, the experienced free people of the "Wasteland" would immediately be able to see how strong the background and financial resources of the owner of this knight territory are.
By then, it will be very easy for them to recruit people.
Of course, Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang didn't have that much money. They had borrowed all this money from Su Er and Amuruo privately.
Originally, they had planned to take it slow, starting with an ordinary village. But after they confirmed the end was near, Amuruo took advantage of Suer's meditation and forcefully ordered Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang to sign an IOU, assuming the debt and starting construction immediately, striving to build a solid frontier town before the end of the world.
So when their business just started, they owed tens or even hundreds of billions of gold coins.
Not to mention Qin Lang's expression became even more expressionless, even Xia Xifeng's smile became stiff.
Even if he was in the game, it would be difficult for him to save so much money.
It would be impossible for him to repay these debts by selling goods by hand alone. He had to be a kind-hearted lord, lead his people to become rich, and pay more taxes, in order to fill this huge debt.
The end of the world has come, but Qin Lang and I still haven’t paid off our debt, right?
The debt was so heavy that Xia Xifeng had no energy to think about anything else.
What shadow monster? Isn’t it just an ordinary monster that even a life player like him can randomly spawn?
Everything has been exposed in front of Boss Amuruo, what else does he have to worry about?
Working hard to save money and pay off debts is the most important thing in his life.
"The pressure doesn't have to be so great, does it?" Perilla came to help, frightened by Xia Xifeng's near collapse. "The City Lord and Mr. Sur didn't ask you to pay back the money immediately. You and Lang will definitely be able to reach the legendary realm, and you still have a long life ahead of you. There's no need to worry about this debt. Besides, the City Lord and Mr. Sur only subsidized you and never expected you to repay."
