◎Construction of Nightmare Village officially begins!◎
The first task of the Nightmare Demons when they arrived at the Demon King's Palace was not to make pottery, but to build a house for themselves.
Warren had previously considered building a habitat for the Nightmare Demons before they arrived, but then he thought that he did not understand their living habits, and that he would feel more at home in a house built by himself, so he did not build houses in advance. He just drew a few design drawings based on the house styles that appeared in the cards and the current architectural level of the Demon King's Palace, and let the Nightmare Demons choose for themselves.
The Nightmare Demon Chief Sur was flattered and carefully selected a wooden house design.
"My king, the food brought by the Nightmare Demons has been moved into the granary," she asked docilely, "There are also a lot of pottery and some miscellaneous magic props. Where do you think we should put them?"
Although not very powerful, the Nightmare Demon Clan has been passed down for thousands of years and still has some assets. Although it is dwarfed by the vast treasury of the Demon King's Palace, it is indeed a considerable fortune for the Nightmare Demons.
Although offering it to the Demon King is indeed the wisest approach, the Nightmare Demon Chief's straightforwardness is enough to show her intelligence and tact.
Warren thought for a moment and felt that if he didn't take it, it would frighten the Nightmare Demons and leave hidden dangers. So he nodded calmly and said, "Give it to Lier and let him keep it in the treasury. If it's something that the Nightmare Demons can use now, you can keep it for yourselves."
Speaking of which, the Demon King's treasure house that had been stolen long ago is now so empty that there is not even a blade of grass left. The magic props sent by the Nightmare Demons can be considered to add some appearance.
After the system scan confirmed that there were no magic cores in the homes brought by the Nightmare Demons, Warren no longer paid attention to them and sent Alex's magic soldier team and the goblin construction team that had completed the excavation of the lava river to help the Nightmare Demons build houses.
...
...
After gradually becoming familiar with the demons in the Demon King's Palace, the goblins no longer acted in groups, but instead joined the potato planting team, the blood soul grass cultivation research team, the mushroom planting research team and the construction team according to each goblin's ability and willingness.
Barlow, who was originally most familiar with potato planting, was appointed as the team leader of the mushroom planting research team because he had participated in a potato research project. He was carefully cultivating mushrooms in a corner of the Demon King's Palace with several familiars and goblins.
The one who paid the most attention to the progress of mushroom cultivation was not the Demon King Warren, but the servant chefs. After eating roasted mushrooms, they tried boiled mushrooms, stir-fried mushrooms with meat and mushroom sauce, and all agreed that this ingredient was worth adding to the daily menu. Now every day they look forward to the mushroom cultivation research team finding a way to cultivate mushrooms in the Demon King's Palace so that they have enough mushrooms to try more cooking techniques.
The goblin who led the construction team was the former goblin chief, Xili. Compared to when he first arrived, he had become fatter, and the animal skin coat that originally fit him well had to be altered to be much wider. His eyes were filled with joy, and he would touch his pocket every once in a while to take out the jerky left over from dinner, and take a bite with a full sense of happiness.
Compared to the lively and talkative Barro, although Xili is the chief, he is shy and introverted. You have to get to know him well before you can know how rich his psychological activities are. York, the winged demon who is also in the construction team, is the demon that Xili is most familiar with.
At this time, the Winged Demon York was holding the claw of the Goblin Xili and flying with him in the air, rushing to the temporary residence of the Nightmare Demon Clan: "Hurry up, we are going to be late! Today is the first day of the official opening of the Nightmare Village!"
The Nightmare Tribe had a total of about 400 Nightmare Demons. This time, the entire tribe came and instantly became the second largest race in the Demon King's Palace. Even if there were ten Nightmare Demons living in each cabin, more than 40 cabins would have to be built, so Warren simply named this place Nightmare Village.
"It's a bit crowded now, but the king said this is just your temporary residence," said the construction team.
The demon soldier patted the nightmare demons on the shoulders and comforted them, "When the pottery factory is built, many demons will move there to live in single rooms. If you can pass the legion's assessment, you can also live in the barracks. The tents over there are very beautiful."
The Nightmare Demon blinked dizzily, confused: "... a bit crowded?"
Their original clan land was a natural valley, where more than 400 Nightmare Demons lived together in caves in the valley. In their opinion, the wooden house village on the design drawing was already an incredibly spacious place to live. The construction team even said that they could live in better houses in the future!
The Nightmare Demon, who had previously been confused about the clan leader's decision to move to the Demon King's Palace and had only followed the clan leader out of trust in him, now felt deep admiration for his clan leader.
Sure enough, the patriarch’s decision has never been wrong!
After rushing to the construction site, Winged Demon York finally arrived on time. He put Xili on the ground and took a few deep breaths before he recovered. He was also a reserved and shy person. He was embarrassed to talk to the strange Nightmare Demon, so he chatted quietly with the Goblin Xili:
"I've also seen the design drawings. The Nightmare Village is pretty nice. Of course, it's definitely not as good as the place where we Winged Demons live. Although we still live in the Demon King's Palace, the Flamewood Forest has grown very tall. The King said that when the Flamewood grows to the thickness of five Winged Demons, we can build tree houses there! Each Winged Demon will have a separate tree house to live in!"
"Wow, that's great," Xili was happy for his friend, "The king asked us before whether we should renovate the Goblin Stone House, but I think the Goblin Stone House is already exquisite enough! And we goblins are not used to living alone, so we feel safer sleeping together - but each of us goblins has his own bed!"
The two of them huddled together and whispered. Not far away, the leader of the construction team, the Dark Iron Dwarf Silver Ingot, waved at them: "Hey, come on, we're going to start working!"
York and Cialis ran over quickly.
The Nightmare Demons had never been involved in the construction of wooden houses, so they could only follow the construction team and listen to their explanations in a daze. Several goblins led by Xili put on work clothes and skillfully opened a groove on the ground. Yinding pointed at the groove and gestured: "See, this side is a wooden house, and that side is the second one. We will pave the distance in the middle with stones to make a stone road and plant some bushes..."
Listening to his description, the Nightmare Demons seemed to see neat and beautiful wooden houses rising from the ground, and cubs running happily on the clean stone road, carrying clay jars full of food towards their home.
They looked at each other and saw the same shining light in each other's eyes.
…
They were fantasizing about their happy life in the future. In the Demon King's Palace, Warren called the tailors and handed them several large baskets of magic cotton that the Cotton Demons had brought in for trading.
Originally, the tailors in the Demon King's Palace were just servants, but now several winged demons have joined the ranks of tailors, as well as a slime demon and two bat demons who have come to serve as apprentices.
"I've seen demons wearing clothes made of cotton before," Warren said, activating the card and showing them a picture of a cotton coat. "Your task is to find a way to turn cotton wool into clothes."
The tailors carefully observed the cotton-padded jacket on the card, all with confused expressions on their faces, and it was obvious that they had no idea.
"All right, my king," they said, a little unconvincingly, "let's give it a try."
Warren nodded, patted their shoulders one by one, handed them a piece of chocolate, and comforted them: "Don't worry, just study it slowly."
All the tailors responded in unison.
They actually had a mission to accomplish. The nightmare demons who had newly joined the Demon King's Palace did not yet have the official Demon King's Palace uniforms, and were still wearing the worn-out animal skin clothes they brought from their clan. In addition to mending damaged clothes, the tailors were usually very busy.
Warren also knew this, and since turning cotton wool into cotton clothes would require a very complicated process, he was not in a hurry at all. As a result, only five days later, when the Nightmare Demon Clan's house was less than half built, the tailors happily came to meet the king with cotton cloth.
"So fast?" Warren praised in amazement, "You are so smart!"
Being praised by the Demon King, the tailors held their heads high, blushing and looking at the king excitedly.
"It was the work of the Winged Demon York and the Goblin Xili," they talked about the whole story in a flurry. "We were originally holding cotton wool and wanted to try to see if we could fuse it together like animal skins, but we ended up just making a large piece of cotton wool -"
Although the king had told them not to worry, the tailors were still very disappointed and sat on the ground sighing.
York and Xili, who had just finished the construction task for the day, were walking to the cafeteria together and happened to pass by here. Xili was dancing and saying, "The king must be the demon god who came to the demon realm to save the demons." Such a random guess, he didn't notice the stone under his feet, rolling in front of the tailors.
York quickly flew over and picked him up.
Several winged demon tailors saw York and greeted him listlessly.
"What's wrong with you?" York asked with concern, "Is there something wrong? Do you need help?"
"Nothing, I just don't know how to turn these cotton wool into clothes," the Winged Demon Tailor sighed, "A soft ball like this is completely different from the shape of clothes."
"Don't be discouraged, there is always a way," York comforted them, "Look, the vines are not in the same shape as the chairs, but can't we weave a vine chair?"
"But rattan chairs are made of ropes, and this cotton wool doesn't look like it can be woven," Xili whispered. At this point, he paused and blinked his eyes. "Hey, I remember that straw ropes seemed to be made of grass? Can this cotton wool be made into cotton ropes?"
"Then we tried it, and we found that cotton wool can actually be rubbed into cotton ropes!"
The tailors' faces turned red with excitement and they made rope-twisting gestures to show the devil.
"That's it. Twist it into very thin cotton ropes, and then weave it like weaving rattan mats to make cotton cloth! My king, this cotton cloth is both soft and fireproof, and much more useful than animal skins!"
Warren retreated tactically. Although he was also happy, he somehow felt that the way these tailors looked at him was a little too hot.
The goblin Xili, who first proposed that "the demon king is the devil incarnate", said: Oh? I'm just making a reasonable guess! I don't mean anything else!
