Chapter 150 Roadside Scholar
After killing a wither, Levi did not stop.
A moment later, another Wither was summoned, then destroyed by the person who summoned it.
Use obsidian as the base, place a nether star on it, and then put on a glass shell to make a beacon.
[Achievement: Bring the beacon home]
Click.
Inside the castle, Levi placed the newly synthesized beacon on a full-level base, and replaced all the building materials above the beacon with glass.
Swoosh——
In an instant, a solid white beam of light shot up into the sky, cutting through the night sky, and it was unknown where it spread to.
[Achievement: Beacon Engineer]
Strength, life recovery.
Two types of amplification are stimulated from the beacon.
On this day, many people felt that they had become stronger and more active, and any minor injuries they accidentally sustained healed on their own before they could even be treated.
The source of all these changes comes from the center of the territory - the lord's castle.
Regardless of the night, many residents got up from their beds, walked out of their homes, and gathered around in reverence and awe, praying to the pillar of light that suddenly appeared above the castle and to the person who created it.
The miracle, which seemed like the presence of God himself, caused a hint of fanaticism to appear in the eyes of the residents.
"it's beautiful."
Inside the castle, Levi stroked the glass cover on the outside of the beacon, staring at the star-like crystal inside that was as bright as daylight, with surroundings as blue as the clear sky, and a center that was whiter and more flawless than mithril. He didn't blink for a long time.
Perhaps the only thing in the world that can rival it is the Silmaril.
However, judging from the performance, the power contained in the latter is always greater than that of the beacon. The beacon has indiscriminate amplification, and the Silmaril is the nemesis of evil. Any evil creature with insufficient status will be blinded on the spot after taking a look at it.
As soon as Levi placed the beacon and walked out of the castle, he was frightened by the residents.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"Sir, we are here to see the miracle you have created."
One of the residents took a step forward, put one hand on his chest, and made some kind of prayer gesture.
Li Wei waved his hand: "Alright, alright, let's go back now that you've seen enough. It's getting late, time to go to bed."
"If you don't sleep now, be careful that the sun will burn your butt the next day."
Sunbathing your butt? Upon hearing this, a resident frowned slightly.
What does this mean? Why does the sun hit your butt?
He simulated in his mind the scenario that would occur if this sentence were to happen:
A man was snoring in his bed in a rather indecent posture. He didn't wake up until the sun rose and his butt was sunburned.
oh--
So that's how it is.
My lord is quite humorous.
The resident's brows suddenly relaxed, and he suddenly realized something. Looking at the other residents around him who had bewildered expressions, he knew that this would become a topic of conversation for him tomorrow.
An unintentional remark became a kind of slang and gradually spread in Roadside Fort.
Some sleepy kids don't know it yet, but their parents have learned a new saying from the Lord, which will last throughout their childhood...
"Follow your instructions."
The residents agreed and reluctantly returned to their beds.
Many people couldn't sleep at night, their minds full of the pillar of light and the tall figure in front of it.
After sending away the gathered residents and pressing back the little pinky's head that was sticking out of the tree, Levi walked into the tower and used the star from the underworld as raw material to make the "Guardian" core.
This thing...cannot be used lightly. Its power is too extreme and it can easily lead to disaster if you are not careful.
Every time you use it, you must be cautious.
When protection is excessive, it will become eternal torture. Whether it is for the enemy or for yourself, it is too cruel.
Spent a night studying in the tower.
The next day, just as the sun rose, a group of people were discussing in the square, looking up at the white beam of light above the castle.
Little Pink was lying on the edge of the tree canopy, with his dragon head stretched out and staring at that place motionlessly early in the morning.
Since I'm forced to go to bed at night, I can probably watch it during the day.
"Don't fall..."
Levi went up and added a guardrail to the platform.
A few seconds later, a dragon head emerged from the gap in the guardrail and stuck outside, staring at the beam of light.
"You'd better not let me hear the sound of your head being stuck."
After measuring the size of the gap in the guardrail and confirming that it could not get stuck for the time being, Levi walked down the tree, touched the big yellow dog dozing on the grass by the roadside, stretched himself, and strolled around the territory.
As he was walking around, a voice caught his attention.
"Have you memorized everything?"
In a house with a slightly different layout, an old man who looked to be in his sixties or seventies stood in front of a large table and said something to the children sitting on chairs opposite the table.
“Remember!”
The children answered in unison.
Is this...? Levi pushed open the door and walked in.
"My Lord!"
The old man perked up and walked over to bow to Levi.
The children sitting at the table also stood up and imitated the old man's manner of greeting, but their movements were quite unfamiliar.
Levi pressed his hand and gently touched the head of the child standing in the front. He asked, "What are you doing?"
"I am teaching the children knowledge, sir."
"Oh, so we are in class."
The room was indeed decorated to create a study atmosphere. The walls were lined with bookshelves filled with new and old books, as well as some paper and pens.
There are some names recorded on it.
"These are the names of the children whose parents entrusted me to teach them knowledge."
The old man stepped forward and explained to Levi.
The inheritance of knowledge...
Levi's expression became more serious.
Previously, the population in the territory was too small, and there were very few children, so education issues had not been considered for the time being.
Now...
"Your face seems unfamiliar, have you been here recently?"
Levi asked the old man.
The temperament of this old man who serves as a teacher is quite unique, it is a temperament that belongs only to cultured people, calm and stable. Standing there, he is like dust on the ground, old and thick, and will not flutter at all as long as there is no interference from external things.
If such a person had come to the territory a long time ago, he would definitely have no impression at all.
"Yes, my lord. I come from a small town between the forest and the river mouth in the west of Anorien. I used to work as a librarian in the town."
"Anorien? This name...if I remember correctly, it should be a fiefdom in the north of Gondor."
Levi thought for a moment and asked, "What happened in your town? Why would someone like you wander out?"
Seeing Levi asking, the old man did not hide anything and told his experience in detail: "It was not like this in the early years, sir. When I was young, there were many young and strong people in the town, and occasionally caravans passed by. Later, I don't know when it started, orcs appeared in the surrounding woods, and at night there were scarlet-eyed wargs wandering around the town. Many people couldn't stand it and chose to migrate to the southeast and gathered around Minas Tirith."
"In the end, there were only old people like me left in the town, and there were many abandoned houses. But I haven't seen fires in other houses for a long time. Maybe I'm the only one left."
"I didn't want to give up the precious books and knowledge accumulated there over the years, so I stayed there, watering the vegetable garden, making fire and cooking, and then reading every day. This life continued until a few orcs riding on wolves suddenly broke into my house. At that moment, I regretted staying in the town."
"Just when the orcs were discussing whether to chop me up and stew me or roast me directly, a ranger who passed by rescued me. He was strong and agile, with a longbow on his back and a rather ancient-looking sword on his waist."
"He told me that if I didn't want to go to Minas Tirith, I could go west. There is a recently built city on the west side of the mountain that seems willing to take in refugees."
"Besides, he also said that if I am willing to come here, he can personally give me a ride."
"oh?"
Levi suddenly became interested.
"Where is the ranger? Where did he go after he brought you here?"
"He went farther west, my lord, to a place called the Forgotten Inn."
"ha."
Levi couldn't stop the corners of his mouth from rising, and he almost laughed.
Well, I didn’t expect to hear news about that guy from the residents.
A ranger with an ancient sword who often hangs around the Forgotten Inn, who could it be? It's really hard to guess.
It has been several years since we last parted.
I don’t know where this guy went.
This time, I even picked up an old scholar from the roadside.
Looking at the lord with a somewhat subtle expression, the old man felt quite uneasy. At a certain moment, he seemed to suddenly realize something and his breathing slowed down.
The Lord would ask this, which means he is completely unaware of all this...
I had no idea where I, an outsider, was going, nor did I know how the children’s classes were progressing.
The old man reacted and said quickly:
"Forgive me, my Lord, for gathering the children together and teaching them my scanty knowledge without reporting to you."
He slowly lowered his head.
"No, it was my negligence. I should thank you for reminding me of this."
Levi smiled.
The old man raised his head.
I only heard the lord in front of me say: "The population of the territory has increased recently, and there are so many children that they can fill a room. I think we need to set up a special place for study."
"How about you be the first lecturer?"
"What you've learned over the past few decades will come in handy."
