The crisp words that suddenly sounded were like a hand, pulling Annan out of the sticky mire. He saw a girl of thirteen or fourteen standing in front of the bookshelf, her clear eyes shining with curiosity and inquiry.
Is there anyone in Breeze City who doesn’t know me?
"I'm looking around. My name is Annan."
"Fudot." The girl raised her chin and looked at Annan's cheek: "Are you new here? Why haven't I seen you before?"
"This is my first time here," Annan said.
It seemed that another snowstorm was approaching, and the flames of oil lamps and candles were burning around the library.
"I am a junior administrator. What do you want to read? "Weird Illustrated Book" or "Herbal Identification" or "Elementary Alchemy Guide"?"
Fudot mentioned several book titles related to race and alchemy. Annan tentatively said: "I prefer stories..."
"I thought your knowledge would be as good as your appearance." The girl said with some contempt, pointed to the corner, ignored Annan, and left the bookshelf.
As the girl left, the library became bright again.
Annan put down the strange "The Sunken Place" and headed in the direction the girl pointed to - that was the library exit.
Well, I really didn’t come to the library with the intention of learning knowledge.
Annan found another librarian, but during the chat, he learned that there was no librarian named Fudote, and there was no girl of twelve or thirteen years old.
…
In the Mage Tower, Annan recounted his previous experiences to Michael and remembered the banned books in Mr. Victor's basement: "Mr. Victor told me that some knowledge itself is power."
"It's almost the same. The better the talent, the easier it is to perceive. Do you remember the 'Book of Filth'? It's also a kind of thing."
As for whether the story is true or false...
"Who knows?" Michael said nonchalantly. "Just like our dreams may be stories that will happen sooner or later in the past, our stories may also be other people's dreams."
Annan agreed with this idea and inspired the magic ring in Michael's room.
A large fire element appeared in response to the request. Annan listened carefully. The sounds of the burning flames did indeed form "burning", "burning", "igniting", "blazing" and other nouns related to flames, but there was no complete sentence.
Even if I don’t know the answer, I won’t answer.
Annan tried to imitate the elemental language. When the fire element said hot, he also said blazing, and when the fire element said burning, he also said burning. Nothing happened except that the already unstable fire element became more restless.
"Will there be any abnormalities when the elements gather?"
"Except that the gathering of elements makes the gathering of elements."
The meaning of this nonsense is that the gathering of elemental creatures will make the elements in the area converge, making it easier to release similar magic, and project some creatures from the elemental plane.
In any case, the element is okay without saying it.
The Elemental Legion program continues.
Finally, Annan went to the scavenger headquarters and told the centurion that Xingyue Bay needed scavengers.
"Other nobles are worried that the scavengers will interfere too much in the territory, but you welcome us instead?" the centurion said playfully.
"Why not welcome?"
The centurion agreed to apply for Annan, and Annan completed all the matters for this trip to Breeze City in one morning.
Returning to the manor, the ice that had frozen Della had not melted. It seemed that the temperature had returned to normal. Della's skin color was no longer pale and had returned to a slightly darker color.
Annan wrote down what happened in the past few days and when she woke up to find the ogre, and put it on the desk to prevent her from waking up before she returned to Xingyue Bay and not knowing what happened.
Find a regular time to check on Della's condition. Della continues to "hibernate" and goes to the warehouse with the gifts she is going to give to the ogre.
"This is the gift I prepared for you, a whole piece of human-shaped candy, which allows you to enjoy the dual pleasure of eating people and sweets at the same time."
This sentence, which sounded like an advertisement, inspired Annan. He recorded it in his notes and added an advertisement after "Make more movies."
The ogre was quite satisfied, and after bidding farewell to Olmedo, the busy and young lord set off on his return journey.
…
There are new changes in Xingyue Bay every day, either a complete house or a straight road.
The price is that Xingyue Bay, which was originally prosperous, suddenly faces a financial crisis.
At this time, outside the log house, Francois and Ingrid were arguing, and a soldier was sneaking around in the distance.
"What if we don't pay the residents for the time being? They should be able to understand..."
"They're going to riot."
"It's impossible. The citizens of other territories don't even talk about their salary, they can't even have enough to eat..."
They thought well. Francois said good things, Ingrid said bad things, the soldiers spread the news, and the local people would take the initiative to propose canceling their salaries - but Annan's appearance disrupted the arrangement.
"Salaries must continue to be paid."
"You are such a good lord..." Francois sighed helplessly.
What Annan thought was that instead of discussing how to divide the cake, it would be better to make the cake bigger.
…
The cold and biting sea breeze penetrated directly into his collar.
The harsh winter completely froze the bay. Annan stood on the beach and watched the knights poking around the bay with their spears.
The survey results showed that there are a variety of fish species under the ice. They can dig through the ice for fishing now, but it can only partially alleviate the problem. The food consumption of Xingyue Bay will not be truly alleviated until spring.
Annan's "Lord's Mansion" was temporarily moved to a single-family house next to a low hill. The bedroom on the second floor was where Della stayed. He usually worked on the first floor and dealt with some trivial matters.
For example, the southern part is planned as a factory area, where spinning mills and other future factories will be located.
For example, there are no fishermen in Xingyue Bay who can weave fishing nets and catch fish? Then grab them from Breeze City...invite them.
For example, if some of the people in the territory get sick, then a "witch doctor" is hired from Breeze City.
Xingyue Bay is becoming more and more prosperous, and its finances are becoming increasingly depleted.
After Ingrid warned again, Annan said: "I'll find a way."
Everyone has no doubt that he is there. "The Fall of the Wizard's Tower" has made more than 10,000 gold coins. It seems that it is not difficult to make a few thousand gold coins by shooting a magic video - but Annan knows that this is not possible. In fact, "The Wizard"
I never got tired of watching "The Fall of the Tower". For example, the citizens of Xingyue Bay who watched it more than 60 times never got tired of watching it. What really made "The Fall of the Mage Tower" cold was this cold winter.
One silver coin means burning firewood for half a month or ten pounds of bread. In other seasons, even a week of hard work can earn such money, but in the dead of winter, many people cannot afford it.
"Countless nobles in Breeze City are proud to invite you. You can come and go in the banquet room like a noble lady." Francois deliberately suggested.
The druid has not returned yet, and the frost giant camp is still 160 miles away, but there is something wrong with the magic ring.
Murat got the magic ring, but a group of people suddenly appeared to hunt him down.
