Bai Xiaowen glanced at Dr. Zombie with suspicion: "Do you really have the ability to interpret the research notes left by the great polymath Norton?"
"Of course, I'm a professional." Dr. Zombie patted his skinny chest.
"I think it's better to be on the safe side. After all, this notebook can only be viewed by one person, and it will self-destruct after reading it. I can follow the path of Prince Nicholas and invite a master who is proficient in alchemy." Bai Xiaowen touched.
He lifted his chin and said, "Well, if Prince Nicholas is not reliable, I can wait until I venture into other worlds in the future..."
"Wise boss, you must believe me!" Dr. Zombie shouted, "I once helped you develop a plague killer! I also made a zombie induction fluid and a camouflage fluid! My professionalism can definitely be trusted!"
Bai Xiaowen said awkwardly: "But you are on vacation."
"As your loyal and diligent employee, I can temporarily give up my vacation!" Dr. Zombie shouted, "I will not give up this opportunity to anyone for my precious notes that record the mysteries of alchemy!"
"You...volunteer to work overtime?"
"Yes, that's right!"
"Okay, then I will give you Master Norton's research notes, this is the only chance to study them," Bai Xiaowen took out the somewhat scrawled research notes from the storage space and handed it to the zombie.
Doctor, "Now, let me tell you my request."
Dr. Zombie couldn't wait to open the notes, but Bai Xiaowen raised his hand and held him down. He said angrily: "Well, okay, request... um request, tell me quickly."
"I have a summoned creature, which should be related to this notebook." Bai Xiaowen raised his hand and summoned the voodoo suture body Fat Boy. "After reading the notes, you have to come up with a practical plan to help Fat Boy inspire him.
consciousness.”
Dr. Zombie's face fell a little: "Boss, you know nothing about the contents of this notebook. Is this request too early? What if the notebook is not about the consciousness of the Stitch Monster? I think it's better to wait.
I’ll talk about it after reading this note, okay?”
"Impossible," Bai Xiaowen snorted, "My judgment will not be wrong. You should study it carefully for me. If you can't meet my requirements, you can just wait and work overtime until next year."
"...evil capitalists!"
"Um?"
"Ahem... I mean, I'm going back to the research institute now. See you later, boss!"
Dr. Zombie ran out with agility that was totally out of proportion to his size.
Bai Xiaowen and Cecilia looked at each other and smiled.
There were only two of them left in the room. An inexplicable atmosphere of ambiguity was quietly spreading.
"Cecilia..."
"Stop talking," Cecilia pressed Bai Xiaowen's lips with her slender white fingers, then quietly slipped her arm down, hooked Bai Xiaowen's neck, and closed her gleaming eyes, "Kiss me."
…
The next morning.
Bai Xiaowen stretched and sat up.
Cecilia lay a little lazily and said to Bai Xiaowen: "Don't get up."
"ha?"
A pair of snake-like arms wrapped around Bai Xiaowen's neck and knocked him down on the bed with a slight hook. Cecilia turned over and pressed Bai Xiaowen down, with a touching smile on her lips: "You are so strong, Dio.
"
The quilt slipped from Cecilia's body, and Bai Xiaowen's eyes suddenly couldn't see enough...
…
When it was time for lunch, the two finally got up, freshened up, and had lunch.
Bai Xiaowen had never been to the spirit world before and lived so comfortably. He didn't have to do any tasks or worry about anything. He was surrounded by beautiful women. Even the government affairs of Baishi City were handled by Cecilia. After all, she
Already familiar with the road.
However, in the schedule set by Cecilia for Bai Xiaowen, patrolling the territory is still the highest priority. The lord Bai Xiaowen must be allowed to show his face in front of the people to strengthen his sense of presence.
At least, the city defense army must be made aware of the lord they are loyal to, right? These were Cecilia's exact words.
Bai Xiaowen didn't think it mattered - because he had just received a reminder of the rules of the spirit world, and Cecilia's love for him had reached the "beloved" level. I don't know if it was because of the charm bonus of the leaf-covering peony picture, or whether it was because of the charm bonus of the leaf-covering peony picture.
Because of Bai Xiaowen's hard work...
Bai Xiaowen inquired about the rules of the spirit world regarding the information about devotion, and the reply he got was still "please explore on your own". He was not in a hurry anymore. Anyway, true love is definitely better than falling in love. No matter how you look at it, Cecilia is completely devoted to him.
It looks like, combined with Cecilia's character, the possibility of betraying him is basically zero.
Inspecting the city defense force in the afternoon, Bai Xiaowen discovered that the city defense force of Baishi City was actually a military force that should not be underestimated.
This army is composed of three arms. The largest number is longbowmen, with four columns and 400 people. The second is the guards, armed with short swords and wooden shields, with two columns and 200 people. Finally, there are light cavalry, who are mainly responsible for
For patrolling and delivering messages, there was only half a column of fifty people.
The average level of this army of 650 people is above level five. Among them, the strongest light cavalry team is the backbone of the cavalry team under Cecilia. There are many with levels as high as level 7, which is the most powerful.
The types of troops trained are related to the level of the barracks. The current existence of level 3 barracks is mainly due to the fact that the leader Cecilia is in charge. These soldiers were all trained by her.
With Cecilia's ability, these three arms are not her limit. If conditions are sufficient, Cecilia can even train powerful arms such as strong archers and heavy armored cavalry.
The so-called conditions refer to the level of supporting facilities such as blacksmith shops and stables. Currently, the White Rock City blacksmith shop is a level 2 building and can only produce iron knives, longbows, leather armor and other equipment. The highest quality is only blank slate quality.
Strengthening the army with this equipment is not easy.
It is impossible to gain a foothold in the dangerous northern Xinjiang without a strong army.
"So, my next goal is to upgrade the blacksmith shop and recruit professionals who are proficient in casting. As long as I can build strong bows that meet the requirements, I can first train the strong archer troops. Strong archers, even in the center of the empire
The army is also the main battle arm." Cecilia said.
"Well, you told me yesterday that you were negotiating with Black Rock City recently to buy a batch of strong bows? Why not buy them directly from the blacksmith?" Bai Xiaowen asked. It's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, borrowed ones
It always belongs to others, and only independent production is the right way.
"Of course the Iron Thorn family will not agree. Even if we offer higher wages, those blacksmiths will not be able to come to White Rock City." Cecilia said.
"Hehe... that's not necessarily the case now," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, playing with a silver seal engraved with a thorn flower, "How much do you think the Tiethorn family is willing to pay for their reputation?"
