Since there are eighteen Thunder Rhinos raised in the military camp, each Thunder Rhino can be equipped with fifty archers. Therefore, a thousand archers are recruited in the military camp, 80% of which come from the hills and mountains.
local young aborigines.
The remaining 20% are the aborigines from Duodan Town and the town's mercenaries.
In this way, the Archer Battalion transformed and became the battalion with the largest number of people in Surdak's army. The captain of the Archer Battalion was the king of merit in the military camp. In just two months after arriving in Duodan Town, he made great achievements in the military camp.
The station gained a massive 240,000 merit points.
What puzzled the soldiers was that they had never seen Captain Samira redeem her merits. No matter how many merits she accumulated, she didn't even bother to take a look.
Andrew and Samira have successively advanced to Level 2 powerhouses. Their bodies have stronger carrying capacity, and both of them can have a second piece of magic pattern breeding equipment.
Since they were already second-level powerhouses, Surdak felt that they were not suitable to colonize the life magic pattern of the ghost-patterned soldier ants.
The second piece of magic pattern colonization clothing should be peeled off at least from the third-level monster. However, the life magic patterns of the ghost pattern male ants and ghost pattern queen ants are obviously not suitable for Andrew and Samira, so Surdak decided to wait.
wait.
It is said that the carrying capacity of the second-level powerhouses allows them to wear intermediate magic pattern structures.
However, in the Green Empire, even elementary magic pattern structures are in short supply, and intermediate magic pattern structures are even rarer. I heard that only in large-scale auctions, you can have the opportunity to encounter intermediate magic pattern structures, and the lowest price of the auction is enough to persuade you to leave.
There are many second-level experts.
…
After the cavalry battalion cleared the red ants in the hills and mountains, they continued towards Invercargill Forest.
The Archer Battalion can carry a large amount of supplies, so every time the Cavalry Battalion goes to the edge of Invercargill Forest to clear out ghost-marked red ants, it basically stays for five or six days before returning to Dodan Town.
The young natives who came out of the native tribes, after possessing excellent armor and weapons, showed much greater combat power than the veterans of the deserted land. Moreover, because they were young and energetic, they also had greater growth potential.
space.
The indigenous tribal warriors are more familiar with the hills and mountains, and are more familiar with the Invercargill Forest, which makes the cavalry battalion and the archer battalion almost invincible on the edge of the Invercargill Forest.
Red ants invaded the hilly and mountainous areas and gnawed away large areas of turf and shrubs, leaving large areas of red soil exposed in the hilly and mountainous areas.
When the cavalry battalion arrived at the edge of the Invercargill Forest, they discovered that the entire forest was covered with dead trees all over the mountains and plains.
After the ant tide passed, some dead trees sprouted again, and the forest vegetation revived.
Some high-level monsters have returned to the Invercargill Forest. They originally occupied a territory in this forest. When the ant tide came, they left the Invercargill Forest with their strong survival instincts and hid in the Thorny Mountains.
Now that the ant tide has begun to decline, these monsters that occupied the Invercargill Forest have returned. I am afraid that these high-level monsters are the biggest enemies that Surdak will face when he enters the Invercargill Forest.
…
The situation in Duodan Town has stabilized. Hundreds of mercenary groups and adventure groups have passed through Duodan Canyon and entered the hills and mountains to hunt for the remaining ghost-marked red ants in the mountains.
Almost every day, horse teams carry large amounts of Warcraft materials from the hills and mountains to Duodan Town.
It was the Warcraft materials transported by these horse teams that attracted many caravans from Wilkes City to Dodan Town to do business, making the trade in Dodan Town unprecedentedly prosperous.
Many businessmen believe that the prosperity of Duodan Town is only temporary. There is no special output here and there are no large mines. As the beast tide recedes, Duodan Town will eventually return to its former peace.
There are many caravans coming to Duodan Town now. Every caravan that comes to Duodan Town will basically transport some supplies. After disposing of these supplies, some Warcraft materials will be purchased and transported to Wilkes City.
A large amount of supplies were transported to Duodan Town, which greatly improved the living standards of local residents.
Although the trading market in Duodan Town requires payment of taxes, it provides great conveniences to merchants. First of all, such a trading market also guarantees some interests of merchants. At least there are no scammers in the market.
Secondly, the market in Duodan Town has become a distribution center for Warcraft materials. Merchants who want to purchase any materials related to ghost-marked red ants can always find them in the market.
Everyone is beginning to realize the benefits of having rules and order after the market is established.
Businessmen's opposition to paying taxes is also gradually disappearing.
…
Martino stepped off the magic caravan, and his Martin boots sank into the dark mud. When he raised his feet again, he picked up a heavy ball of sticky mud under his feet.
Fortunately, the attendant helped Baron Martino from behind and he did not fall down in the mud.
It rained just last night in Duodan Town, and the construction site by the river became muddy.
Baron Martino walked awkwardly as if he was drunk. The road here was crushed by trucks transporting lumber.
Mrs. Luna's figure was just in front of the first riverside wooden house built not far away. She was holding a sheepskin notepad in her hand and was listening intently to what Suldak was saying.
Suldak held a wooden house construction plan in his hand and was discussing the details with a craftsman and steward.
Baron Martino walked over, with more and more mud under his feet, and his steps were heavy. The distance was only a few dozen meters, and he was sweating all the way.
Suldak saw Baron Martino and quickly called him over.
Martino walked into this wooden house and discovered that in just three days, the first wooden house had begun to take shape.
However, according to Suldak's strict requirements, the riverside wooden house was not refined enough, and many details needed to be corrected immediately. However, the craftsman in charge felt that there was no need to be so troublesome in some places.
Mrs. Luna didn't understand many things, but she wrote them all down in her notebook.
Suldak climbed up the wooden steps outside the wooden house, stood at the door, pointed to the corridor of the room, and said: "The ground here must be paved with oak floors, and painted with varnish, and the walls must also be made of oak boards.
The logs should be paved flat, and the logs should not be exposed at the edges of the windows. The logs should be covered by window sills and window frames. In addition, these wooden windows should be equipped with large pieces of glass as much as possible..."
The craftsman's steward had a grimace on his face, but he didn't dare to argue.
Surdak walked into the living room, stood next to the empty window frame that had not yet been installed, looked at the Dodan River ten meters away, and said to the craftsman:
"The windows here need to be opened wider. I want to open the windows and see the Duodan River. The land outside the window will be the courtyard of this wooden house. A flower pond will be built here..."
If it weren't for the fear of his power, the craftsman-in-charge would have wanted to give up the job and quit it altogether.
Suldak did not feel that he was talking too much. In his heart, he still maintained the inertial thinking that the customer is God.
He continued pointing to the footings of the walls around the living room and the stairs on one side, and said: "In addition, the stairs here are too rough. There must be wooden fences erected here, and there must be skirting lines under all wooden walls...
Um, do you know what a skirting line is? It’s just..."
Surdak explained everything in detail to a craftsman in charge for a long time.
The head craftsman stood next to Surdak. He was almost scolded by Surdak at first. Now when he talked about the rectification plan, he realized how high Surdak's requirements were. He was so overwhelmed by his complicated requirements.
I felt dizzy, but I didn't dare to say anything against it.
Everyone in the town doesn't know how strong Commander Surdak's character is. He drove away Mayor Marco, suppressed Baron Josh Golding's trading firm, and closed down Viscount Dalton's cooked leather shop by the river.
Workshop, this series of events are aimed at the most powerful nobleman in Dodan Town.
The craftsman steward glanced at the sword on Surdak's waist. He didn't know how much blood was stained on the sword before it turned bright red...
Baron Martino, who was following him, listened with great interest. He concluded that Suldak must have come from a noble family and lived in an exquisite house since he was a child, so he had such high requirements for the construction of wooden houses.
The model room of this riverside wooden house has been finalized. The appearance adopts the design of Baron Martino. It is very consistent with the architectural features of the Bailin plane, but it is fundamentally different from those simple-style wooden houses. When built, it gives people a sense of
It feels very high-end.
"Overall, it's quite good. It shows all the charm that this wooden house should have, but some places are not detailed enough." Suldak walked around the upstairs again and walked down to talk to the craftsmen.
The steward ordered: "Let's build twenty wooden houses like this by the river first. Now there is a shortage of housing in the town, so you have to act quickly..."
The craftsman steward finally heard the compliment and immediately said with a smile: "Mayor, we will do our best."
Surdak reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Do a good job. The next wooden house must be of the quality of the model house. There are still many projects in the future. If it is done this time, the subsequent projects will definitely be given priority."
Leave it to the construction team in Dodan Town, but if the work is not done well, the project may be stopped at any time."
Surdak decided to draw a big pie for the craftsman steward first, so he said to him: "In addition to the Twin Goddess Temple, I also plan to transform this aboriginal slum area..."
"This slum area?" The craftsman steward looked back at the dilapidated slum area dozens of meters away. He also thought of Suldak's forcible move to the cooked leather workshop, and asked with some worry: "Are you planning to let these people live in this slum area?"
Will the indigenous people move away too?”
Surdak was slightly startled and asked:
"Why move away? They will continue to live here, but I will build them new townhouses for free. This will make the layout more reasonable. In the future, more townhouses can be built in these saved areas..."
Baron Martino and Lady Luna stood side by side behind Suldak. Listening to his plans for the future of Dodan Town, they realized that Suldak was determined to change the face of Dodan Town.
For a moment, I actually looked forward to the future of the town...
…
Nika did not go to the military camp to change dressings for the wounded soldiers. She hid in the corner of the attic room.
The panic in her heart caused her chest to rise and fall, and even her breathing became weak.
She wanted to take a sip of cold water to calm her hot heart, but it was of no use.
Suldak and Selina were not at home, and Xigna also followed Selina to the military camp. She didn't know who to discuss this matter with.
Then, she lowered her head and looked at the faint light coming from her lower abdomen, and had to hold a back cushion to block the faint light.
This is somewhat different from the holy light described by Surdak...
Surdak told Nika that the power of the Holy Light he felt was hidden in countless nodes of the body. As long as he needed the power of the Holy Light, he would use his mental power to control the power of the Holy Light to flow out of the body.
She didn't know how this change happened. She couldn't feel any nodes in her body, and the power of the holy light she had condensed through meditation could slowly gather in her lower abdomen.
This ball of holy light is very penetrating. If you are only wearing a thin long skirt, you can clearly see this ball of pale golden holy light.
It seemed impossible for her to wear a thicker dress to cover the Holy Light.
Nika did not dare to go out on the street, so she could only hide in the attic of her home, trying to block out the light.
As her faith turned, this ball of holy light appeared in her palm. She sat in the corner of the room, resting her chin on her knees, hugging her knees with her hands, staring at the holy light in her palm. For a moment,
I don't know what to do either.
She had sensed light very early on, but it had not focused on her lower abdomen before.
She even felt that she was like a firefly that kept glowing in the night. If the light in her body kept shining like this in the future, Nika felt that it would be a luxury for her to go shopping in the future.
She kept chanting Surdak's name silently in her heart, hoping that he would come back soon.
The holy light in the palm of my hand does not look like a burning flame, but more like a scattered light.
Nika sighed slightly. She knew that she was a little different from others, but she never thought that these would cause trouble in her life.
At this moment, a familiar sound of horse hooves came from outside the yard.
Nika's eyes immediately brightened, and she stood up suddenly, forgetting that this was an attic, and her head hit the sloping ridge of the roof, making her dizzy and almost falling to the floor.
There are stars in front of my eyes.
Suldak's familiar footsteps came from downstairs, walked into the yard, and opened the door...
Nika finally breathed a sigh of relief, hugged the cushion, endured the strong dizziness, and quickly ran downstairs to find Suldak.
…
As soon as Suldak entered the small building, he saw Nika rushing downstairs in a nightgown.
Thought she was sick.
I was just about to ask Nika what happened...
When he saw her throwing the cushion on the floor and a pale golden light coming from her lower abdomen, Nika looked at Suldak eagerly.
At this time, Surdak was a little stunned and speechless. He pointed at Nika's shimmering belly with his finger, paused for a while, and then said with a look of astonishment: "Nika, you can't be a magician."
