Chapter 47: A Century of Changes in Wonderland
Who knows how much time has passed? 10 years, 100 years, 500 years...
In Fairyland, the passage of time is meaningless because the fairies have hopelessly long lifespans.
Duan Lingyi didn't know how many weapons she had forged, probably as high as a small mountain.
While Yue Heng was sleeping, her weapon was docked with Mandola.
Mandola was also very enthusiastic when she first learned that Duan Lingyi was an old friend of her teacher.
And when Duan Lingyi placed a pile of weapons in front of Mandola, she was even more excited.
"The teacher arranged everything for me before he fell asleep. I must work harder."
I don't know what Mandola had in mind, but she actually invited Duan Lingyi to be the empire's chief blacksmith. All the territories conquered by the empire and the spoils collected could be freely disposed of by Duan Lingyi as long as they were useful to him.
This is equivalent to giving Duan Lingyi unlimited costs and opportunities for trial and error.
Only a fool would refuse such generous conditions.
So she didn't stay in Jin Litong's Golden Cave for long before moving to Huayan Mirror Palace.
By the way, the Huayan Mirror Palace has now become a truly huge palace.
As Mandola gathered more and more fairies, the original Huayan Mirror Palace seemed a little narrow, so she spent a huge amount of fairy power to rebuild a more solemn and majestic palace.
The current Huayan Mirror Palace looks like a real ancient palace complex, with carved beams and painted rafters crisscrossing each other.
The roof covered with glazed tiles sparkles with dazzling light. There is a corner tower at each corner, with high eaves that look like a flying white bird. Wind chimes are hung under the corners, making crisp sounds when the breeze blows.
The sun is willing to favor, the breeze is willing to blow, and the laughter and joy are willing to linger here. The once cold castle has become a real paradise on earth.
On the first day of moving to Huayan Mirror Palace, Jinling and Huoyi were so shocked that they were speechless.
Their impression of Mandola was still that of a thief hated by everyone in the fairyland, but after not seeing her for a hundred years, they found that she had become a powerful controller.
In the following hundred years, Duan Lingyi witnessed Mandola's growth and methods.
I have to say that Yue Heng’s teaching is indeed excellent. Now Mandola has become a qualified leader.
She is willing to listen to the needs of the people, and will take responsibility for implementing wrong plans. She has also implemented many welfare mechanisms to protect the rights and interests of the people.
Duan Lingyi thought that when Yue Heng woke up, he would be proud of Mandola, after all, his student was so outstanding.
However, the past hundred years have not been peaceful and uneventful.
After becoming the Great Fairy, Mandola unified almost all the dark night fairies in the fairyland and strengthened their training. The empire now has an army composed almost entirely of dark night fairies.
As it stands, there is almost no force in Wonderland that can stop the development of the empire.
Because of the gathering of the dark night fairies, most ordinary fairies lived in groups, forming a pattern of large settlements and small mixed settlements to jointly resist Mandola's army.
At this time, the two sides were in an irreconcilable situation with Princess Ling's sea of flowers as the boundary.
At the same time, Xin Ling and Mandola gradually became estranged because of their different ideas. Although they are sisters, the time they spend together is not as much as that spent by Duan Lingyi and Mandola.
Apart from Mandola, other fairies in the fairyland have also been affected to varying degrees by the development of the human world.
For example, the Golden Prince Jin Litong, who used to come to see her often, has now become a mad god of war feared by everyone in the fairyland.
Pang Zun has also been promoted to a great fairy. He releases lightning in the sky above Lei Tingxuan every day, scaring countless little fairies into moving out of that area overnight.
Du Xifei had put on a mask and gloves at some point, and she didn't take them off when she met her. I guess the poison marks had already appeared on her cheeks.
As for Zhou Yin, as Princess Qing’s favorite brother, he can clearly feel the changes in Princess Qing.
Aizhen became more and more irritable and often got angry over trivial matters. Although she was trying hard to restrain herself, it was obviously not very effective.
Judging from the current situation, whether it is Rongrong, Zhouyin or Duan Lingyi, it is time to proceed to the second step.
After raising pigs for so many years, they can finally be slaughtered.
"Rongrong, let's go. We've been waiting for so many years, it's time to go out."
Duan Lingyi shrunk the hammer on the forging table and inserted it into the base of the horse's tail. She straightened her leather armor and put on her waist bag, ready to go.
Rongrong also stopped praying and flew into Duan Lingyi's waist bag, quietly acting as a doll.
I don’t know if it’s influenced by the religions of the human world, but Rongrong has become more and more fond of praying over the years.
But it is certain that Rongrong is not religious.
After all, the prayer prayed by the good person sounds like a curse, cursing all the fairies who make her feel uncomfortable.
"Mandola, I'm going to be out for a while. Recently, Jin Litong has gone crazy in the fairyland. I have to go and catch him back."
Duan Lingyi greeted Mandola and flew towards the northern forest on the empire's special flying boat.
Why does the Empire have flying boats?
This story probably happened decades ago.
The original flying boat was built by Duan Lingyi at the request of Abdu, imitating Yue Heng's vehicle.
He fell in love with the king's exquisite vehicle the first time he saw it, and he vowed to have a flying boat of his own.
So when Duan Lingyi came, he pestered her to help build one.
Duan Lingyi, unable to resist Abdu's unreasonable demands, had no choice but to help him build a desert flying boat.
The flying boat is made mainly of branches trimmed from the laurel tree, with metal provided by Jin Litong as secondary protection.
Although it is not as good as Yue Heng’s silver flying boat, the Crescent Moon, it is also a pretty good flying vehicle in the fairyland.
However, Abdu’s happiness did not last long, as the flying boat he had been dreaming of was confiscated after Mandola found out about it.
After discovering the other uses of the flying boat, Mandola directly took out various materials that the empire had accumulated over the years as reward, hoping that Duan Lingyi could build a few more of them.
She was very ambitious. Since Duan Lingyi could build one ship, why couldn't she build two? Three?
As long as she had enough flying boats, she could establish a number of air routes belonging to the empire, which would make it extremely convenient for transporting supplies during wartime and for residents to travel during normal times.
I have to say that Mandola has really transformed thoroughly. In the original plot, she used all kinds of conspiracies and tricks to achieve her goals.
Now, she is smart and decisive, integrating all available resources to increase the cards in her hand and overwhelm the enemy with the general trend.
The flying boat was moving very fast and soon reached the northern forest.
However, at this moment, the forest, which should have been filled with fairies and laughter, became barren in the east and dilapidated in the west.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Duan Lingyi knew that Jin Litong was nearby.
