Chapter 53

Although everyone was coveting the big fans in the supermarket, Jiang Li did not give in, and neither the dwarf Eugene nor Augustus returned empty-handed, so the small fans were still very popular.

The small fans in the supermarket are portable, and they can blow air as long as they are equipped with batteries sold in the supermarket. They are also very energy-saving, and one battery is enough to run the whole summer. Whether it is the residents of Duole City or the Royal Capital, they love them, and Jiang Li had to restock several times.

However, the dwarf did not give up easily.

After that, Eugene came to the supermarket to buy small fans several times. Jiang Li did not ask him for details, but according to what Chris occasionally revealed when he visited the supermarket, the dwarf seemed to be trying to make fans by himself, and he blew up his workshop several times for this.

I don't know if he succeeded, but Jiang Li guessed that he didn't, because one morning when he came to the other world, he heard that the dwarf Eugene was imprisoned in Dore City.

The crime was trying to sneak into Jiang Li's house, but before he entered the door, he was discovered by Messenal who lived inside, and was fixed outside by the elves with magic until he was discovered by the patrolling guards.

Jiang Li: “…………”

Jiang Li’s home in the other world had been transformed by him. A generator was installed and the wires were hidden in the wall. There were not only large fans inside, but also various household appliances. Even people who had never seen the inside could tell that it was special just by looking at the strange reflective solar panels on the roof. The dwarf coveted it so much that he wished he could touch and test it with his own hands, study the special features of those props, and find out the secrets hidden underneath.

Unfortunately, his plan failed at the very beginning.

The dwarf was imprisoned in the prison for a few days before being released. After returning, he locked himself in the workshop. Thick smoke rose from the chimney of the workshop for many days. When he came out again, he moved a huge tool out of the workshop.

——Bicycle fan!

Yes, Jiang Li’s bicycle was also developed by him!

When Jiang Li was invited by Chris to go over and saw the large fan outside the dwarf’s workshop, he was filled with admiration for the people from the other world.

The large fan is made of iron sheets. The dwarves thinned large pieces of iron ore into thin iron sheets and made them into the shape of fan blades. The three fan blades are installed together, and the appearance is no different from that of an ordinary fan, except that it is a little bigger. The difference is the device at the back. The densely packed gears form a power device, which is connected to the bicycle at the back. The bicycle, which is somewhat different from the modern ones, is fixed on a wooden frame. When the dwarf rides the bicycle on it, the wheels turn, and the chain will drive the power device in the front to rotate the large fan.

The refreshing cool breeze, carrying the slight heat in the air, blew across everyone's cheeks. The wind was strong for a while and then weak. At first it was a strong wind, then a breeze, and finally the dwarf stopped panting, and the wind stopped with him.

Ginger: "..."

Chris asked in confusion: "Why isn't it turning?"

The dwarf Eugene jumped off the bicycle, patted the fan device beside him that was much taller than himself, and said with a gasp: "I haven't found a power source to replace the battery yet."

"So, the fan will only turn when you ride on it?"

"That's right."

Chris was silent for a moment, and asked: "Can't it be replaced by magic?"

"Magic? Of course not!" The dwarf glared at him: "Magic, magic... You don't understand the beauty of forging, the creation from nothing, the reaction of the collision of ore and fire, magic can't do it."

The dwarf muttered, angrily removed the bicycle from the fan device, turned around and went into his tool room, trying to find a more suitable replacement, rummaging around and making clanging noises.

Jiang Li looked at the bicycle curiously.

He didn't know how many times the dwarf had studied his bicycle privately. Without a tutorial, the bicycle he made already had a modern appearance, with two wheels, and could be ridden, and the front of the bicycle could also turn. The frame was made of wood, and the wheels were made of metal. However, due to material limitations, the outer ring was not wrapped with rubber, so it was a bit difficult to push, not as easy as the current bicycles.

But this was already amazing. Jiang Li was sure that his bicycle had not been disassembled, but the dwarf still copied it. If it were not for the limitation of materials, maybe he could really make a bicycle that was exactly the same as the modern one.

Jiang Li also found a few clocks and flashlights among the tools thrown out by the dwarves. They were not the ones sold in the supermarket, but replicas of the dwarves. The limitations of the materials resulted in some differences in appearance, but they were almost the same except that they could not be used due to lack of energy.

...

After returning to the supermarket, Jiang Li said hello to Messenner who was sitting behind the cashier, and went to the warehouse to search.

But the warehouse was full of goods from the supermarket, which had been sorted many times before, and there was nothing he wanted to find. To no avail, Jiang Li walked out again.

Seeing Messenner still sitting behind the cashier, he was a little surprised: "Teacher, are you not going out of town today?"

Messenner nodded.

"In that case..." Jiang Li glanced at the clock hanging on the wall: "It's almost noon, so are we going to Levi's restaurant for lunch? The new menu I gave him before seems to have been researched recently."

Recently, the farmland outside the city has begun to harvest.

Perhaps it is because the soil and sunshine in the alien world are good, or perhaps it is because the agricultural officials have taken good care of them. After modern seeds came to the alien world, they not only did not have any problems with the soil and water, but also grew very fast. The growth time of various seeds is different, and some early-maturing crops can already be harvested. Not long ago, Lord Dean just brought people to harvest a large batch, and those crops also flowed into the market.

Jiang Li provided a new menu for Levi's restaurant, and those vegetables have been very popular in the restaurant recently.

When talking about those new vegetarian dishes, Messenner's eyes lit up, and he shook his head modestly: "No, in a few days..." He thought about it, and swallowed the rest of the words, "You will know in a few days."

"Huh?" Jiang Li looked at him puzzledly, and asked again: "What about tofu..."

The silver-haired elf still shook his head.

I don't know if it was Jiang Li's illusion, although Messenner's expression didn't change, he seemed to be in a good mood today.

He is already a mature elf, and Jiang Li didn't ask much, just seize the time to study with the teacher during the remaining business hours.

The clock on the wall turned to noon, and seeing that the business hours were almost over, Jiang Li closed the magic book and planned to return to Earth.

"Teacher, then I..."

There was the sound of horse hooves at the door. Jiang Li looked up and saw Augustus rushing into the supermarket.

"Luckily I made it!" The blond noble chief breathed a sigh of relief and skillfully took out a gold coin from his pocket: "Jiang Li, please buy me that dessert tomorrow, and two cups of milk tea with milk cap." "

Okay." Because Jiang Li would occasionally take out things that the supermarket didn't sell, this kind of shopping had happened many times, Jiang Li naturally took it and confirmed with him: "Two cups of milk tea?"

"That's right!"

Without waiting for Jiang Li to ask, Augustus said directly: "Ophelia is coming back. Her academy is on vacation, and she doesn't plan to travel to other places this year. We received a letter from her, and tomorrow, her carriage will arrive in Dore City!"

The blond nobleman was delighted: "It's rare for her to come back, I don't know how many surprises she has missed in these days... By the way, are your pancakes still for sale?"

Jiang Li shook his head, and Augustus was immediately disappointed: "What a pity, I also want Ophelia to taste the pancakes, which is a delicacy that can't be tasted in the royal capital."

"Isn't there a pancake stall on the shopping street?" After the Ice and Snow Festival, food imitating mixed grain pancakes appeared in Dore City. Because Jiang Li no longer sells mixed-grain pancakes, many residents also patronize them.

Augustus shook his head: "You know, the taste is too different from what you make."

However, it doesn't matter if he misses the pancakes. Some of the food sold in the supermarket cannot be transported to the capital due to inconvenient transportation. He still has a lot of surprises for his sister.

"By the way." Augustus took out the gold coins from his pocket again: "And the seafood we ate last time, can I buy that? I think Ophelia will like it too."

"No problem."

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

Not knowing the price of the seafood, Augustus directly handed over his wallet.

Jiang Li took it down readily and would refund or pay more when the time came.

Suddenly, a sharp horn sounded outside, and the conversations of several people stopped at the same time. Jiang Li looked outside in confusion. It was the first time he heard such an alarm since he came to Dore City. At the same time, Augustus's face changed drastically.

"There is a monster attack!" He stood up suddenly, and after hearing the rhythm of the horn clearly, his face became even uglier: "There is an accident in the farmland!"

Jiang Li was shocked: "What?!"

Messenner, who reacted faster than him, flashed the corner of the light blue robe of the silver-haired elf. Before the two of them could come to their senses, the elf had already rushed out of the supermarket and disappeared in front of the two of them.

In a hurry, Messenner ignored the ban on flying magic in the city-state. In front of the young city lord Dean, the flying magic took him off the ground and turned into a stream of light to rush out of the city.

But at this moment, even if the young city lord Dean was present, he would not care about him at all.

Jiang Li and Augustus rushed to the city gate as fast as possible. Standing on the city wall, they saw dust rolling in the direction of the Monster Forest from a distance, as if a sandstorm was sweeping in, but if they looked clearly, they would find that it was a large group of monsters running towards this side.

Almost all the monsters in the forest rushed out and rushed towards Duolei City with great momentum. The earth trembled slightly with the rolling thick smoke. People inside and outside Duolei City responded quickly. After the alarm sounded, people quickly hid in the houses. Soldiers took up their weapons and prepared to deal with the upcoming monsters.

What made people anxious was that in the path of the monsters, there were large tracts of farmland that were about to be harvested. The rich fruits were hanging heavily on the branches. The fast-running monsters in front had already rushed into the farmland. The people who were working in the farmland ran back in panic.

Messenner, who came faster than them, was nowhere to be seen at the moment, but Jiang Li had no time to look for him. Augustus drew the sword from his waist and mounted his horse, and he also picked up his staff.

Flying magic wrapped around his whole body, and attack magic shot out from the top of the staff, hitting the monster running in the front. The monster let out a wail and fell to the ground. The tomatoes, which were still green on the surface, were crushed into puree by the monster's huge body.

The long sword in Augustus's hand pierced heavily into the neck of a monster. He turned around and shouted: "Jiang Li!"

Jiang Li responded loudly: "I understand!"

There were too many monsters and they were rushing too fast. We couldn't let these monsters rush into the farmland and destroy the crops that were about to grow!

Jiang Li's mind was working quickly, thinking about the magic he had learned, and what kind of magic could knock down the monster without affecting the farmland.

Light shone from the top of his staff, and magic power extended out. Several barriers made of magic blocked the running monster. The monster hit the transparent barrier heavily, and before it could turn around, transparent walls rose in the other three directions, firmly restraining them in a square space.

Bang! Bang! Bang bang bang bang!

At the edge of the vast farmland, an indestructible barrier slowly rose up, crashing into the monsters pouring into Dore City one after another, and then angrily attacked it, but the huge defensive magic firmly protected the farmland behind, and the branches and leaves of the crops trembled violently.

After the alarm sounded, members of the Magicians Association and the Adventurers Guild in the city also ran out to help deal with the monsters. Seeing the magic fluctuations at the edge of the farmland from afar, the members of the Magicians Association widened their eyes in disbelief: "Defensive magic, can the range be so wide..."

Jiang Li felt the magic power in his body rapidly draining away, and he held the staff tightly in his hand. At this moment, Jiang Li was extremely fortunate that he was able to use the staff proficiently and use the least magic power to exert the greatest magic power. Otherwise, he would not have been able to do this before.

First use defensive magic to block the monsters' way, and then deal with these monsters...

Unknowingly, the sky darkened.

The sky, which was clear just now, was now covered by dark clouds. The endless dark clouds pressed down heavily, almost covering the entire continent. Thunder flashed in the rolling sea of ​​clouds.

No, it was not thunder and lightning, but the fluctuation of magic elements.

The magic elements in the air were surging violently and restlessly. Jiang Li looked up and was surprised to find the figure of Messenal in the sky.

At this moment, the silver-haired elf was surrounded by anger.

Rage filled his chest, and the magic power that escaped made his hair and robes flutter in the air. He raised the staff in his hand high, and a vast magic was brewing at the top. The light of magic sank directly into the sea of ​​clouds that was surging and roaring in the sky.

Messenner looked at the ugly and ferocious monsters below with a cold expression. His emerald eyes reflected the fields trampled by the monsters. The vegetables were mixed with mud. Even if he closed his eyes, he could still recall the tragic scene he had just seen.

Those vegetables were grown with hard work and sweat day after day.

Starting from a seed, pulling weeds, catching insects, watering, and finally harvesting fruits,

all were destroyed by this group of monsters!

Messenal swung his staff heavily, and the huge magic power turned into thunder and fell from the sky!

"Heavenly punishment!"

Boom!

Thunder roared down from the sky. In an instant, the world was covered by lightning, and the strong thunder almost split the entire continent. Jiang Li was covered by a white light in front of his eyes, and he couldn't see anything clearly. He closed his eyes subconsciously.

"This is..."

The president of the Magicians Association stood on the city wall. Behind the lens, his old eyes could not bear the stimulation and began to cry, but he was still reluctant to close his eyes, trying to see the scene behind the white light.

"This is the legendary magic..."

The white light covered the sky and the earth, submerging everything within the field of vision .

Jiang Li's magic power detected that the defensive magic he cast lost pressure in an instant, and those monsters seemed to give up the attack at the same time and turned around to escape.

After the white light dissipated, he opened his eyes again.

There was no trace of monsters.

The charred corpses were piled up, and the monsters that were rushing like a tide just now had all lost their breath of life.

Jiang Li was stunned.

The defensive magic dissipated as soon as he relaxed.

The monster corpse trapped in the magic barrier fell to the ground with a thud, and the lifeless beast's eyes reflected a large area of ​​vibrant green.
