Arriving at Layton's temporary office, Chateau found that Layton was not here. After asking the clerk, he found out that Layton had gone to the cemetery and said he had something to discuss with Mott.
In this case, Xia Duo no longer stayed, but returned to the lord's villa.
He moved to the new house last night, but found that there were no windows. He asked Norman, the soldier on duty, to find a carpenter to cut a piece of wood to seal it. Unexpectedly, he received news that a new dimension had been discovered.
He walked in a hurry and did not wait for the windows to be sealed. When he was flying in the sky, he noticed that the windows had been sealed, and not only the window of his bedroom, but also the windows of other rooms were all sealed.
stand up.
Even the door is covered with a layer of wood.
Looking at the specifications up close, it looks familiar. Isn’t it just the spliced wall panels among the standard wooden house components?
When he returned to the bedroom, he followed his instructions and blocked the window with a piece of solid wood. There was no trace of water in the room. Xia Duo checked the rooms upstairs and downstairs and returned to the bedroom very satisfied.
Although this villa is called a villa, it is actually more like a small castle. In this era without reinforced concrete, it is still not easy for ordinary people to build a stone double-story building.
This requires very sophisticated structural design and engineering management. Chateau's house is very similar in structure to other villas in Savileland. Perhaps this is the so-called "craftsman's secret".
…
At dusk, Leiden came to see Chateau, and it was only then that Chateau discovered a disadvantage of living here. Such a large villa must require many servants to maintain it, and maybe he also needs a housekeeper.
This time when Leighton came, Norman, the soldier on duty at the door, ushered him in.
Shado is deeply aware of the cumbersome worldly etiquette. Let alone Shado, a person who traveled from the earth, even the mages of Netheril don't like to waste time on these aspects.
After all, spellcasters do not need to design cumbersome etiquette to show authority like ordinary people in power. The powerful power they possess is their natural authority.
No wonder mages like to live in places like the Mage Tower, which combine the functions of "research institution" and "residence"!
Thinking of this, Xia Duo suddenly felt that building such a big house was in vain. The construction period was long and the cost was high. Instead of doing this, it would be better to build a wooden villa.
After sending Layton to the bedroom on the second floor, Norman left without saying a word, leaving Chateau and Layton alone in the room.
Chateau closed the page and looked at Leiden, asking: "Do you know what happened last night?"
"I know, sir! I have already arranged for someone to repair the gaps in the fence."
"Since you know how to repair the gaps, why don't you check other parts of the fence?" Xia Duo asked again.
I just learned from Gibb that Layton only arranged for people to repair the gap where the wolf got in, and did not arrange for anyone to check other locations. In the end, patrolling soldiers inspected it, and then hired carpenters to re-reinforce several locations.
After Xia Duo said this, Leiden immediately reflected on himself, "Sir, it's my fault."
Chateau's original intention was not to reprimand Leiden, but to remind him that in fact, if it were not for Leiden, he would probably not be able to do better than Leiden if he handled the territorial affairs by himself.
However, this question is actually a management question.
"Assign a person to be a security officer who will be responsible for discovering potential safety hazards in the territory. Let's end this matter."
"yes."
"Are the people of the Kabu tribe still emotionally stable today?" Xia Duo changed the topic.
Yesterday, the shaman of the Kahun tribe had just been buried in the Linshui Village Cemetery. The remaining Langas people became anxious and uneasy. Xia Duo felt that this was a good opportunity for them to integrate.
Leiden happened to visit the people of the Kabu tribe today, so he said, "Sir, their emotions have stabilized, and some are even willing to accept the comfort of the Holy Light."
Xia Duo nodded. In fact, when the Kaban shaman just died, Leiden tried to use holy light to comfort those who were sad, but the Langas people were unwilling to accept other "shamanic witchcraft".
witchcraft".
In their understanding, witchcraft is related to faith. They only accept the witchcraft of their own shamans and regard the witchcraft of other people as a curse.
This "taking advantage of the opportunity" of the Holy Light may be the beginning of the transformation. Sha Duo reminded Leiden not to be too radical, so as not to cause estrangement. The current Daxia leader still has the image of a savior and protector in the eyes of the Kabu tribe people.
, but cannot become an antagonist.
"How are they learning Nese Common?"
"Today they are more attentive than before."
"Very good, keep up the good work and make those four Slavin Chamber of Commerce people have a better attitude." Just as he was talking, Xia Duo seemed to think of something again, "By the way, from today onwards, no more barbarians are allowed in the territory. You can only
Said Langas, you know?"
"Yes, I will notify you."
"Well, that's it for today. It's getting late. Go back and rest."
"Yes, sir!"
Layton withdrew, and after reading a book for a while, Chateau also "turned off the lights" and took a rest.
…
Three days later, it snowed heavily.
A burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from the bedroom of the lord's villa in Linshui Village. Norman, who was on duty downstairs, touched his head and wondered why the lord was so happy.
The lord he usually saw had never smiled like this.
Xia Duo is indeed very happy, because he has stepped on the threshold of a high-level mage, and he can step in at any time as long as he is willing.
Once you become a high-level mage, although you are not as good as an arcanist to become the absolute backbone of Netheril, you can at least move forward and retreat freely in today's era. Even a great arcanist will not ignore a high-level mage.
[Flying], [Teleporting], the core advantages of the mage were fully demonstrated during this period.
The 4-level [Mage Armor] equivalent to the 5-level level has been completed. It is just waiting to be successfully used to get a glimpse of the fifth-level magic network, and then it will be compiled into a formal 5-level spell. Xia Duo is a true high-level mage.
Already.
At this moment, Xia Duo was very glad that the magic in this world did not require any profound understanding, just like doing a math problem, 1 is 1, 2 is 2!
You may make a mistake in calculation, but the answer to the question will not be wrong. As long as you keep calculating, you will eventually be able to figure it out.
Now Xia Duo has come up with the answer to this stage!
…
After removing the wooden block from the window, the wind and snow still blew into the bedroom and hit the face. The weak element balance ability of the [Crimson Protection Robe] was turned off. The wind and snow that were originally as silky as gossamer instantly became sharp.
, carved messily like a carving knife.
Xia Duo couldn't help but shudder, but his heart was burning.
After traveling so far, he finally reached this point. He did not suppress his happy emotions, but allowed them to flow and burst out.
After a long time, feeling that his face was numb from the cold, Xia Duo began to calm down his emotions, concentrate, and slowly cast this low-level spell to explain the high-level spell.
It's quite proficient, but it's not at the extreme yet. Of course, it's not necessary. It's just a transitional spell in the intermediate state.
Ten seconds later, a faint light flashed through, and then became invisible again, but the wind and snow in front of the window was blocked by an invisible barrier.
At this moment, Xia Duo's consciousness was suddenly raised, and it was "high" enough to see the entire face of this vast magic network - a complex structure that spreads between heaven and earth and is filled with infinite energy.
Everything exists within this magnificent structure, and the strings of the magic network connect everything and intertwine with each other.
