"Little Ou, I have deposited all your money into the vault for you."
Ai Lan has already planned to keep this messenger gull as a pet.
The main reason is that it has little fighting power and is very timid. It only barks and flies around the village every day.
At first glance, it looks like there is no future.
"Gah, why do you put my money in the vault? Is the money you put in the vault still my money?"
"Of course, look, didn't I write you a bankbook?"
What Ai Lan calls a passbook is a small book with a few words written on it.
Only Ai Lan himself knows what purpose this little book has.
Passbook: In a certain month of a certain year, the messenger gull deposits 4,000 gold coins in the vault and can enjoy 2% interest every year.
This deposit is a time deposit. If you withdraw it within two years, you will need to pay a handling fee of 1,000 gold coins.
Lord: All the rights of interpretation of all the above regulations belong to Ai Lan.
"How about, with an interest rate of 2% per year, if you put this money here, you don't have to do anything, you can use the money to make money."
"When this money becomes money and continues to be stored in the treasury, it can still make money, make money, make money. Isn't it cool?"
"It's great!" The messenger gull almost drooled when he thought about the pile of golden coins.
Seeing that it was so satisfied, Ai Lan suddenly smiled happily.
"I knew you would be satisfied. Okay, let me train now."
The messenger gull's trade wind skill requires him to open his mouth to deliver it. This guy is squawking all day long, so this is definitely not going to work.
Now the most idle person in the village is West De, and Ai Lan specially asked him to teach the messenger gull how to speak, at least to change this damn oral habit.
After solving the little trouble with the messenger gull, Ai Lan started thinking about the issue of territory construction again.
With the drawings and materials in his hand, he can still build several low-level buildings.
Such as blacksmith shop, training camp, trading market.
These are very important urban buildings, and they will all be built sooner or later.
But these buildings also consume a lot of wood.
After a wave of continuous improvement, whatever blueprints he obtains later will be jammed with materials.
"The blacksmith shop can wait a while."
With just a blacksmith shop and no equipment blueprints, you can't forge any equipment.
Moreover, Ai Lan does not have many minerals on hand, mainly because there is no stable mine output.
The trading market can also be built later.
Although this building is important to a city, Ai Lan's territory is not only in the deep sea, but also moves everywhere. It is impossible for merchants to come and trade with him.
Unless he finds a suitable foothold and temporarily fixes his territory, the trading market can play its role.
"Let's build a training camp first."
Many of Ai Lan's soldiers, such as the tree men, have nothing to do when they are at the bottom of the sea.
It is better to set up a training camp and let them exercise on their own than to stand there in a daze.
"Then it's decided happily."
Once the training camp is built, Ai Lan will have no other buildings to build in a short period of time.
Unless he gets new blueprints again, or hundreds of units of wood.
"Light, come here and try your new skills."
Ai Lan planned to place the training camp on the southernmost side of the territory, right next to the city gate.
In this way, if there is an attack, the soldiers who are training can quickly go to support.
"Your architects used excellence and consumed three and a half times the amount of materials to start construction."
"Ding, the construction of the training camp is completed."
Name: Training camp
Faction:General Building
Level:Level 2
Durability:1500/1500(+50%)
Function: Training soldiers, the number of soldiers that can be accommodated is related to durability (+50%)
Bonus: Keep improving
Advancement: None
As soon as the training camp was built, Ai Lan immediately upgraded it.
The training camp has been upgraded to a large training camp, and the durability has been increased from 1500 to 2000 points.
A large training camp, with all bonuses maxed out, has a durability of 2000+1000, and an additional 1500 functions, which can accommodate a total of 4500 soldiers for training.
For a long time, Ai Lan didn't need to worry about the training camp.
As for the experience he can gain through training, he still needs to experiment with it himself.
Ai Lan entered the training camp with a level 1 soldier, a level 2 soldier, a level 3 soldier, a level 4 soldier, and three elites of different levels.
The area occupied by this camp outside is only the size of an ordinary building.
But once you enter, the place inside is very open.
And almost all training equipment, including all kinds of knives, guns, sticks, sticks, bows and arrows, and throwing spears, can all be found here.
"You all value your own experience. Now, the one-hour short training begins."
In order to test the experience value acquisition rate, Ai Lan did not arrange a particularly long time.
An hour later, Ai Lan discovered that the experience gained by this kind of training was indeed different for everyone.
In addition, in addition to experience, training in the training camp will also increase your proficiency in basic skills.
Of course, the rate of increase is also different.
There are many reasons for this.
The first is the reason for intelligence, the second is subjective initiative, and finally there are the influences of various factors such as skills, level, and templates.
Ai Lan finally conducted experiments and found that level had the greatest impact.
The higher the level, the less experience you can gain in the training camp. After the total level exceeds level 5, the experience acquisition rate plummets.
This may be related to the level of the training camp itself.
But even so, this training camp has already made Ai Lan very satisfied.
There are quite a few elites in his team whose total level is lower than 5.
The total levels of Shadow Beast, West Germany, Crow's Nest, and Messenger Gull are all less than level 5.
The total level of Wright and Gray Crow has just reached level 5.
Ai Lan's pace was so fast that many elites in the team could not keep up with him.
But this time against the wasteland pirates, there should be many fierce battles.
The few combat elites in the team should be able to rise up immediately.
"Go and inform everyone that if you have nothing to do in the future, you will come to the training camp to train, including the messenger gull."
If the messenger gull thinks that he is a pet and does not need training, then he is thinking too much.
Ai Lan is looking forward to what other abilities the messenger profession has.
The combination of telegraph and trade wind is already very magical.
If he could be more concealed, such as spreading the rumors quietly, then the messenger gull would definitely become his trump card.
In addition to these elites, all the soldiers in the city, except for Mangrove, including the tree elders, were all thrown into the training camp by Ai Lan.
Even if the level is high, the experience they can gain is actually very little, but gaining experience is better than doing nothing every day.
He really built this training camp late. He should have built it as soon as there was enough wood.
(Actually, the author forgot.)
Since Ai Lan's own total level has reached level 8, the experience required for upgrading cannot be met by the training camp.
He himself doesn't care whether he practices or not. If he has nothing to do, of course he will come here to practice for a while.
After all, whip technique is also a combat skill, although it is most likely difficult to use.
————————
The reason why an accident is called an accident is because it is unexpected enough.
Almost everyone thinks that the arcanist should finish deciphering the elves' advanced magic book tomorrow, which is the last day of the fourth week, probably close to the fifth week.
But Fastan completed all the cracking work a full day ahead of schedule, and successfully used the prophecy spell to locate the location of the Dragon Mad Lock.
When the female arcanist suddenly contacted him, Ai Lan almost didn't react.
"So fast, it's only been a few days."
He seems to have underestimated Fasitan's level a little. Even if this arcanist has not reached the heroic realm, he should be almost there.
Once you reach the heroic realm, you are no longer an arcanist, but should be called a great arcanist.
"Hello madam, I am Ai Lan."
Fastan's way of contacting him was very special. A void dragon suddenly emerged from the void, and then threw a magic ring to him.
Through this ring, the two of them began to communicate over long distances, several continents apart.
"You should be in the Desert Islands now. It just so happens that I have something for you to do."
This female arcanist didn't seem to know what politeness meant. As soon as she contacted Ai Lan, she immediately explained something.
"This is 500,000 gold coins. Please help me go to the sea market to buy 1,000 mana pearls."
"The remaining money is your reward."
"These pearls are very important, I will use them the day after tomorrow!"
"Hai Shi? Mana Pearl?" Ai Lan heard these two terms for the first time, but she was confused.
"Madam, I won't arrive at the Desert Islands until tomorrow. I won't be in a hurry the day after tomorrow."
It's not that Ai Lan doesn't want to buy it for her, it's just that he doesn't know what to do.
Moreover, the task only lasted about one day, and he was not confident that he could complete it.
Fastan heard his excuse, but thought he felt the reward was not enough.
"Elf, don't be too greedy."
"A mana pearl only sells for 400 gold coins in the market. This mission is enough for you to earn."
That being said, the market price and the price in the market are definitely different.
The sea market is actually a place where pirates deal with black goods, but the Desert Islands are the territory of pirates, so there is no such thing as a black market or not.
This market is built directly on an open space outside the city, and its business is always very good.
And it's right next to Huangyi Town, so no one dares to cause trouble here.
Unless it was needed urgently this time and the quantity required was very large, how could Fastan have given this task to Ai Lan?
Of course, there are also many reasons for witches in this.
After all, Ai Lan was recommended by the witch, and Fastan naturally had a little trust in the witch's vision.
"400 pieces!"
500,000 gold coins, which means if he does this task well, he can earn 100,000 gold coins.
As soon as he heard the quotation, Ai Lan immediately forgot about the previous difficulties.
"No problem, ma'am, leave this task to me!"
"Um?"
Ai Lan's change of heart was so fast that Fastan felt a little weird for no reason.
"Ma'am, I'm just not familiar with Haishi, so I'm a little worried."
"But I just thought that there is a lizard man in my team who lived in the Desolate Sea for a while."
"Leave this task to me, don't worry."
Hearing Ai Lan say this, Fastan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
These thousand pearls were very important to her. After locking the location of the Mystic Lock, the Lingyu Sect decided to let her personally lead the team and go with the Paladins to destroy the Dragon Madness Mystic Lock.
If she can succeed, she will gain a huge advantage in the subsequent sectarian elections.
In order to become the chief mage, Fastan has spent most of his wealth on it.
"Then sign the contract, elf."
How could the mage hand over such a large sum of money to a stranger casually?
It was inevitable to sign a contract. A very strict notarized contract was spat out from the mouth of the Void Wandering Dragon.
Ai Lan carefully read the contract several times and signed his name on it after finding that there was no problem.
He successfully completed this mission, which was worth 100,000 gold coins.
Next, the two of them had a detailed exchange around this task.
Ai Lan directly called Old One-Eye, and Master Tan also told everything he knew about Haishi.
At this point, Ai Lan finally had a certain understanding of the market opened by pirates.
Haishi has its peak season and off-season every year.
There is no fixed time in these two seasons. The peak season is when pirates go out to rob and seize large merchant ships or large amounts of treasures.
The off-season is when I go out and don’t grab any products, so I go home clean and tidy.
During the peak season every year, many businessmen who are not afraid of death come to trade and buy black goods.
During the off-season, there will be fewer people coming to Haishi.
Originally, February is basically the peak season every year, but this year there have been great changes in the ocean.
The Pirate Council held meetings one after another during this period and almost never moved outside.
Such a tense atmosphere has also resulted in merchants not daring to come to the Deserted Islands easily.
Therefore, Fasten predicted that there should be a lot of mana pearls in stock in this sea market.
Normally, it would be very difficult to buy so many mana pearls at one time.
Fastan also made it clear to Ai Lan that it is not necessary to buy a thousand pieces.
It's about buying as much as you can. If you can spend all the five hundred thousand gold coins, that would be the best.
The Lingyu Sect is willing to pay a high price to acquire it, but the reward will definitely not disappoint Ai Lan.
Of course Ai Lan also believed that the mages definitely had enough money to pay him.
The Lingyu Sect is a relatively rule-abiding sect, and Ai Lan still believes in their reputation.
Ai Lan also had some guesses about the task assigned to him by Fastan.
If he guessed correctly, these pearls should be used to cast legion magic.
Casting legion magic in a town and casting legion magic in the wild are two completely different things.
With the support of universal energy in towns, you don't have to worry about running out of mana when releasing legion magic. You can directly use universal energy instead.
And there is no need to be afraid of the risk of failure. With the existence of universal energy, spell failures can be forcibly reversed.
Universal energy is not called wish energy for nothing.
But casting legion magic in the wild is different.
Once the legion magic fails to be released, the powerful backlash is enough to cause all mages below the hero level to die instantly.
Five hundred thousand gold coins was certainly nothing compared to his own life, especially since Fastan was a powerful mage close to the heroic realm.
The impact of death on her at this time is unimaginable.
But if Fastan can successfully destroy the mystery this time, she will not only gain huge reputation and support from the sect, but also gain a huge amount of experience.
This was of unimaginable help for her to reach the heroic realm.
Fastan attached more importance to this incident than anyone imagined.
In fact, when the witch sent high magic to her, Fastan's surprise was simply indescribable.
For this reason, she has always been grateful to Ai Lan.
Originally, she planned to reward Ai Lan well after the mission was over.
But for some reasons, she decided to give a very important task to Ai Lan.
This can be considered a big gamble. Five hundred thousand gold coins is not a small amount.
Of course, if Ai Lan can succeed and buy a thousand mana pearls.
Then Fastan is confident enough that even if she is alone, she can completely destroy the Mystery Lock.
It can be said that the task Ai Lan received is enough to affect the progress of the entire expansion pack.
Ai Lan had already thought of this when signing the contract.
Since he could reach the Desert Islands in one day, he also asked Fastan if he could provide military help?
This is very important if you can't buy enough pearls.
Ai Lan decided to grab enough mana pearls even if it was a robbery.
He did not shy away from anything and directly expressed his thoughts to Fastan.
Unexpectedly, Fastan agreed with the mage very much.
"You are right. Even if you rob, you still have to get a thousand mana pearls."
"If you can do it, or if you find enough opportunities, let me know immediately."
"I will stay in the mage tower during this period and can provide you with sufficient mana support at any time."
With Fastan's guarantee, Ai Lan immediately felt relieved.
A powerful mage close to the level of a hero, although she is thousands of miles away, the help she can give is unimaginable by ordinary people.
Even if it's just low-level spells, master-level spells and low-level spells, can they be the same thing?
"Then it's settled."
Since the goals of both parties were extremely similar, their exchange was very pleasant.
Unknowingly, Ai Lan has successfully established a good personal relationship with Fastan.
If he can complete this mission, the goodwill between them will be greatly improved.
In other words, Ai Lan can get a mage friend who is close to the heroic realm.
This kind of harvest is even more important than one hundred thousand gold coins.
It can even be said that spending one hundred thousand gold coins will definitely not gain the true friendship of a mage of this level.
