◎Blood Moon Medal and Commendation Ceremony◎
"The teleportation gloves can only be used by two demons at most?" Faced with such precious equipment, the lich Laodun was shocked and incoherent, "So this is why the king only allowed us to choose one lich to go?"
Lil looked at him sharply: "Why else do you think?"
Lao Dun stammered for a long time, not daring to tell the truth.
Not only him, most of the liches thought that the Demon King only sent one lich to rescue Tono in order to reduce the loss of labor and let the liches continue to work for him.
- Of course, it's not that he is dissatisfied with this. In fact, even so, the liches are already very grateful for the Demon King's kindness. After all, the Demon King has no need to save a young lich. Even if he doesn't do so, with Tok around, the liches will work hard for the Demon King's Palace without complaint.
Even if the lich didn't say it, Liel could roughly guess what he was thinking, and his expression suddenly turned cold.
He was very dissatisfied with the lich's suspicion of the king, but thinking of the king's instructions, he suppressed his anger and pointed the way to the lich: "Take these equipment and go to the forge to find Captain Tiechui. He will make armor for you."
Lawton nodded shamefacedly.
He is a lich who only has conscience and knows how to be grateful, otherwise he would not be so loyal to his deceased patriarch Pikachu. Thinking that he had misunderstood the Demon King's intentions, he was almost too guilty to raise his head, with his tail tightly clamped between his legs, and he was just about to disintegrate into a cloud of mist on the spot.
...
...
Seeing him like this, Lil's expression became better, but he still ignored him. He watched the lich slowly walk away, then returned to the house and angrily sorted out the account books in the office.
At this time, Warren was standing in the textile team's factory, looking at the new machines made by the textile team.
He didn't know about the little conflict between Liel and Lawton. Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much about it. When he asked the liches who could go to the tribe to bring back Tono, he was so vague, which was largely intentional.
After all, although this group of liches seem to be loyal to Pikachu, the former lich leader, but considering the torture Tok suffered in the lich clan land, and the possible changes in mentality brought about by living in the superior environment of the Demon King's Palace for such a long time, he has to test the credibility of this group of liches, and by the way, make the liches feel a sense of belonging to the Demon King's Palace through the shock and gratitude brought about by such ups and downs in treatment.
The Lich Lawton will then need to wait for the forging of his armor to be completed and practice using the Mist Bow. It will take at least seven or eight days before he can officially set off. Now is still the preparation stage, so Warren naturally won't pay much attention to it.
He stopped thinking about the lich's question and reached out to touch the clay gears of the magic textile machine. The textile team leader Bowen stood by and reported the textile efficiency of the new magic textile machine with great excitement.
Warren's study of bicycles, clockwork toys and several other high-tech assembly toys in the card [Illustrated Guide to 100 Educational Toys] helped him understand the basic usage of gears. A few days ago, he picked a warm night and explained gears and their applications in detail in the Demon King's classroom, encouraging the demons to expand and innovate on this basis and combine gear technology with magic.
Most of the demons only understood half of what was said, and in the end they just remembered that clockwork toys were fun, so they ran to the grocery store to buy clockwork toys, and laughed and competed to see whose toy could run the farthest.
However, many demons understood what was said and after careful consideration, they formed teams to discuss whether there was room for improvement in the tools they were currently using.
The textile team was the first to achieve results.
Their captain, the winged demon Bowen, learned a lot of magic from Feiwu when he was in the winged demon tribe. Later, he came to the Demon King's Palace and followed Sur to learn how to make magic textile looms. Sur, who thought he had good aptitude, specially taught him how to use a lot of magic circles. In addition, he had a good grasp of magic runes and mathematics, so he quickly thought of a way to speed up the flow of magic in the textile loom and reduce magic loss through the operation of gears.
However, precision instruments like gears need to be made of metal, so the textile team must first report to the king, and only after the king nods in agreement can the task of forging gears of corresponding models be entrusted to the forging team.
There happened to be a goblin in the textile team. After his magic power gradually increased, he was able to use a lot of earth magic. He pinched mud gears and made a simple new magic textile machine to test the working efficiency of this new textile machine.
"The efficiency of the new machine has increased by nearly twice," the winged demon Bowen proudly introduced, with his wings pointed up, almost flying in circles in the air, "and the magic power required has been reduced a lot. The previous magic spinning machine needed to replenish magic power every day, but now it only needs to be replenished about once every three days!"
Observing the magic loom carefully, although he had no magic power, having come into contact with so many magic arrays and magic machines, Warren could almost understand the entire working principle and could not help but admire and applaud.
He immediately notified the forging team to manufacture gears and other parts of the new textile machine, and awarded small gold cups and silver coins to Bowen and other members of the textile team. The joyful praise made several demons blush.
After leaving the textile team, Warren returned to the stone house, leaned against the window, and thought quietly.
Adequate food and a large amount of magic practice have made the magic power of the demons in the Demon King's Palace more abundant. The Demon King's Palace's extensive use of magic and the use of many technological machines have also allowed the demons to spontaneously study the many uses of magic in production and life. Facts have proved that this invention is of great benefit to the development of the Demon King's Palace.
"I always feel that the reward of only silver coins is not strong enough," he habitually tapped the Demon King's Crown. He did not expect the system to answer him, but just muttered to himself to sort out his thoughts, "This kind of thing should be known to all the demons in the Demon King's Palace, to encourage the demons to try to innovate and think independently."
He recalled the time long ago when he used illusion cards to simulate a martial arts arena and announced the winners on the podium. He also remembered the lively Spring Festival Gala on the card [Celebrating the New Year with the Fragrant Laxative Flavor]. He soon came up with an idea and quickly recorded it in his memo. After deleting and revising it for a while, he closed the memo with satisfaction and got up to find the logistics team leader Lille.
That night, all the demons in the Demon King's Palace received a notice that the King would hold a commendation meeting to award the Blood Moon Medal to the demons who had performed outstandingly during this period.
Such lively activities are always popular, especially in Magic Domain where there are few entertainment options. Whether in the cafeteria or chatting after work, everyone is guessing who might win the prize, and their words are full of expectations.
The lich Lao Dun did not join in the fun.
Since he decided to go to the Lich Tribe, he asked for leave from his captain and concentrated on practicing archery. Although it was difficult to master archery in a short period of time, the enchanted arrows had their own aiming magic. He only needed to get familiar with the feel and learn how to draw the bow and shoot arrows quickly, which was not difficult.
Filled with guilt towards the king and determination to rescue Tono, Lawton practiced archery day and night. By the time the anti-curse armor was forged, he could even use ordinary arrows without any enchantment to hit targets a hundred meters away. This progress was much faster than that of the army that had just been equipped with bows and arrows, so much so that Arabella was so angry that she trained the magic soldiers overnight.
After completing all the enchantments on the armor, it was already evening. Lawton looked at the sky, put on the armor, and was about to teleport directly, but was stopped by Tiechui: "Wait until tomorrow daytime. If you go to the Lich Tribe's territory now, won't you run into the Lich Tribe's hunting team?"
In the current Demon Realm, the dark and windy night is not a good time, after all, all the liches will gather in the tribe, and any movement will be discovered. If it is during the day, the hunting team members will leave the tribe, and the lich tribe will be unguarded, which is much safer than at night.
Lawton paused and shook his head: "No, I can go now."
Of course he knew the life patterns of the liches, but he also felt that wearing this set of equipment, he could teleport directly back to the Demon King's Palace. Without any worries, it should be no problem for him to defeat a group of liches.
——He used to be just an average level in the hunting team, much worse than the strongest liches, but in the past six months in the Demon King's Palace, the strength of their group of liches has improved by leaps and bounds.
With the addition of the enchanted bow and anti-curse armor, he felt that he could easily defeat Feko alone.
"I must remind you not to let hatred cloud your reason," Tiechui said with a serious expression. Having lived for more than two hundred years, he was very good at reading people's expressions and could see the self-destructive tendency that the lich in front of him was suppressing. "You are going to bring back a cub, but that cub doesn't have the strength you have. The slightest mistake could result in the cub's injury or even death."
Lawton turned pale.
In the past, the young patriarch suffered torture because of his partial listening and credulity. Now he is very willing to listen to the advice of other demons, not to mention that he himself has a good impression and trust towards the demons in the Demon King's Palace.
Thinking that Tono was indeed very weak and that Tono had not even learned the simplest protective magic when he left, Lawton felt that he should act with caution, so he looked at Tiechui gratefully and said, "Okay, I'll go again tomorrow morning."
"Right, be careful," Tiechui smiled, his expression relaxed, and patted the lich's shoulder, "Let's go, tonight is the award ceremony time for the commendation ceremony, you have been tense for so many days, you should relax first."
Lawton didn't feel that he needed to relax, but he didn't want to refuse Captain Tiechui's kindness, so he nodded silently and followed Tiechui to the small square next to the lava lake.
The breeze was blowing gently, the bright sunset was casting a gorgeous halo, and the laughter of the demons playing and fighting filled the air.
The lich walked slowly and suddenly felt as if he was so far away from all the joy that he could not touch it. He did not speak, nor did he chat with any demons. Any emotional fluctuations that were not related to sadness and guilt would make him be judged by his own reason. He shouted at the top of his lungs that a lich like him who was charged with serious crimes was not qualified to enjoy these joys.
He found a seat in the corner and sat down alone, deciding to go back to sleep immediately after watching.
All this excitement has nothing to do with him.
Half an hour later.
"Congratulations to Tok for winning the Invention Award - Blood Moon Badge! The underground magma river magic self-circulation system he created has greatly reduced the difficulty of operating potato fields, increased the amount of arable land that can be reclaimed, and enriched the potato storage of the Demon King's Palace! Everyone applaud!"
Lawton: “Yeah!!!”
He suddenly jumped up, cheering loudly with the other demons, waving his hands in the air and laughing ecstatically. After jumping around for a few rounds, he happened to meet the eyes of another lich. They were all stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst into tears.
