The production of Mirage has brought Stormwind City into a stage of rapid renovation.
In fact, the most obvious change is the road.
The original design that a layer of fine grass could be regarded as a road was completely abandoned. Every day, workers would use wooden boards to plan squares one after another on the ground, and then transport a large amount of gray-white mud from the blacksmith shop.
Fill them evenly in the squares.
There were even knights setting up cordons to prevent anyone from passing through the area under construction.
Under Herod's instruction, Stormwind City's first passage built with mirage ash is taking shape bit by bit.
This road crosses the entire Stormwind City and will become the main road of Stormwind City in the future.
Within a few days, the mirage cooled down and formed a straight, flat and clean avenue, which amazed the citizens of Stormwind City who had never seen such a road before.
"Nobles are different. Even the roads they walk have to be built in such a grand manner."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Be careful, His Highness Hilo will catch you and feed you to the sharks after hearing the blame."
At first, the citizens of Stormwind City would make fun of Herod's road construction in this way, but when it started to rain heavily, everyone's views took a 90-degree turn.
The Gulf Stream Island Chain has rainy weather all year round. According to the geographical knowledge Hilo has learned, it has a typical tropical monsoon climate.
After a rain, except for the newly built Mirage Avenue, the rest of the roads became muddy and even washed out by the rain, making it extremely inconvenient to walk.
Only Mirage Avenue is still flat and clean, which does not affect travel and work at all.
"His Royal Highness Shiloh is truly a nobleman and has great foresight."
"Yes, yes, thanks to this road, I can get to the fields in time to prevent floods and waterlogging. Otherwise, I don't know how much this year's harvest will be ruined."
After seeing the benefits of mirage ash, the citizens of Stormwind City even began to look forward to it, hoping that Hilo would use mirage ash to build roads in various places to provide convenience.
Shiloh also heard the citizens' comments from his subordinates. He chuckled and said, "First, repair all the roads, especially the roads on Gold Coin Island, so that we can transport iron ore."
With the smooth and solid roads, whether for psychological reasons or not, Shiloh felt that the development of Stormwind City has become much faster.
What needs to be done next is to establish a market to stimulate economic development in Stormwind City.
Otherwise, why would he pay everyone a salary?
But before that, Shiloh was going to give himself a day off. He was going to visit the military camp where Connor was in charge.
"I don't know how Connor's training is going."
After the White Oll Queen returned to Hope Island with a new population, Connor specifically approached Hilo, hoping to build a military camp so that he could properly manage the new mercenaries and train the new army.
Shiloh was very happy at the time, and he immediately passed the decree with a stroke of his pen, so another piece of forest adjacent to Stormwind City was opened up to build a military camp.
The military camp is not far from Stormwind City, and you can occasionally hear the sound of drills coming from the military camp.
However, Hilo has been busy with agriculture and infrastructure construction recently, so he has given full military power to Connor without any interference.
Now that more than half a month has passed, he is also ready to see how far Connor has trained those mercenaries and slaves.
With a few sailors, Hilo walked towards the military camp and vaguely saw fences and gates made of solid wood.
Before I even got close, I heard a loud bang: "This is an important military camp! No trespassing allowed!"
Although Shiloh was startled, he was still quite satisfied with the defense here. He was about to speak when he saw a head sticking out of the door and staring at him.
"Could it be His Highness Hilo?"
"It's me." Shiloh responded.
The head immediately retracted. Shiloh was wondering when he saw the door of the military camp being opened in a hurry. Several knights came out to greet them. They knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice: "I didn't know that Your Highness is coming from far away. Please forgive me for being rude."
.”
Shiloh walked over and motioned to the knight to excuse himself. He looked at the military camp. The entire military camp was surrounded by solid wood piles and was quite large.
"Where's Connor?"
"Your Highness, the commander is training new recruits. I'm going to call the commander over now."
Shiloh waved his hand and said, "No, just take me to see it."
"Yes!" Several knights guarded Hilo, one of them led the way, "Your Highness, please follow me."
"Oh!"
"ha!"
After walking a few steps, Shiloh heard loud shouts from the camp. When he got closer, he saw nearly 200 people in the camp, divided into several small teams, fighting with each other, each move after another, extremely fierce.
.
Shiloh's eyelids jumped.
Looking at the other side, Shiloh was even more shocked. On the other side, he saw Connor leading several knights to face attacks from opponents several times their size. What surprised Shiloh even more was that Connor's side actually used wooden swords.
Sword, but the opponent used a real sword.
This is too dangerous.
Shiloh was surprised, thinking that the two sides would end the fight, but saw a knight slashed by his opponent's sword. Even if he dodged in time, a blood arrow spattered from the wound.
"Stop!" Shiloh yelled hurriedly.
"Who dares to make noise in the military camp and disrupt the military camp!" Connor was training when he suddenly heard someone shouting to stop. He was furious and was about to scold him. When he took a closer look, Shiloh stood not far away with a livid face.
, the momentum suddenly leaked.
"Your Highness... I don't know that Your Highness is here, so I'm rude."
Shiloh snorted and walked to the injured knight. When he took a closer look, he saw that a large piece of flesh had been cut off from his arm and it was bleeding.
"Connor, is this how you train?"
Connor was slightly stunned and said: "Yes, Your Highness!"
"The training has to be done to the point. It's so dangerous. What if someone loses his life!"
Connor looked at the knight, then at Shiloh, and said: "Your Highness, you don't know something. The elite knights of the Royal Pontos are all trained in this way."
"As soldiers, the most murderous thing is, and as elite knights, how can we live up to the name of the royal family and the name of elites if we are just training normally."
Shiloh was stunned and felt that what Connor said was somewhat reasonable, but he still frowned and said, "Even so, training like this is too dangerous."
"Your Highness does not know. Since we are royal knights, we can only win when we go to the battlefield. There is no such thing as failure. Otherwise, it would be an insult to the dignity of the royal family."
"This...victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists. There is no true victorious army."
"The royal knights of Pontos are the victorious army!"
Shiloh was stunned. Seeing the confidence in Connor's eyes, he thought for a moment, clapped his hands and said, "Even so, this kind of training is too dangerous and cannot be continued."
"Connor, the way to become an elite is not just to be fearless of life and death, but also a belief."
"Starting from tomorrow, I will train you!"
"ah?"
"What, Connor, do you have any dissatisfaction?" Shiloh frowned.
Connor immediately saluted and said: "Everything will be subject to His Highness's arrangements."
Shiloh looked at Connor who looked unconcerned and snickered secretly in his heart.
Hum hum, even if you have never eaten pork, have you never seen a pig running?
I'll bring over the special forces tactics I saw in my previous life. I won't be able to train you to death!
