When Nan Wukong woke up again, he was already in the bedroom. Sakuya was standing by the bed with a wet towel in his hand and a basin of water on the cabinet beside the bed, seemingly taking care of him.
"How long has it been?" Nan Wukong asked, holding his forehead.
"Three hours and twenty-five minutes." Sakuya answered.
"Thanks a lot."
Nan Wukong cheered up. Excessive mental energy consumption would not be something that could be recovered in a short while, but compared to before, the recovery speed of mental energy was already very fast. After all, he was already a magic apprentice.
"I have prepared dinner for you, please use it." Sakuya pushed the dining cart over and opened the lid, and the aroma of food hit her face.
"noodle?"
"You don't like it?"
"No, I really want to, I like it very much!" Nan Wukong took the plate and started eating.
"It tastes very good and I like it very much. Can I make it more often in the future?" Nan Wukong asked as he rolled it up with his fork and ate it.
Sakuya smiled and said, "I will get tired of eating the same dish all the time. I will prepare other dishes tomorrow."
From the looks of it, this noodle should be just spaghetti. It's not that he has never eaten spaghetti before, but it's just the first time that it's as delicious as Sakuya's.
Although Nan Mukong still wanted to eat another portion, looking at Sakuya's appearance, he probably wouldn't give it to her.
Even the cat-eared sisters were restricted to eating canned tuna once a week. If he hadn't interceded, Lillie might have been drooling over those cans every day.
It is said that eating tuna can make cats addicted. I don’t know if it is true or not.
Seeing that Nan Mukong had recovered, Sakuya left here. Nan Mukong continued to sleep on the bed until he completely recovered his mental power at night. After regaining his mental power, he learned a lesson this time and went to the bath to continue building magic diversion.
The magic diversion that previously supplied the water attribute has been completed. The thunder attribute is not urgent. The fire attribute is actually enough to be cultivated under the sun. If you put a fire, the fire element will just be more.
When the water attribute magic diversion was formed in the morning, the squeezed out fire element returned to normal and merged into magic power. Even if it was not enough, it didn't matter. He could directly access the fire element stored in the underground heating bath array.
The first time is the second time, and the water attribute meridians are built closely together with the fire attribute magic power. However, the fire attribute magic power is not enough only halfway through, so I use my mental power to extract some fire elements from the underground magic circle in the bath, and then merge them into magic power.
Keep building.
There was no rush to build the magic diversion meridians, so we had to do it bit by bit. Fortunately, Nan Wukong was patient and successfully completed it after an hour.
However, there is no fire-attribute magic power stored in the magic energy-conducting meridians, because there is no magic left to store.
After several times of heavy mental consumption, his mental power was somewhat improved. Nan Wukong just felt very tired and no longer passed out like in the morning.
After forcibly integrating some fire-attribute magic power to replenish it, Nan Wukong was finally exhausted, so he went back to his room to rest.
Notice the system prompt: "Ding! Skill: Fireball is unlocked! Please check how to use it yourself."
Nan Wukong opened his eyes slightly and closed them again.
The next morning, Nan Wukong woke up early and returned to the sub-world through the system. After completing the diversion of thunder magic, he completely filled the meridians with thunder magic before returning to the main world.
Nan Wukong, who was finally successful, breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first level of a complete magic apprentice! Moreover, he could also master three attributes of magic, and his combat power soared. It was just that the mage used a wooden sword... very weird!
In the next few days, Nan Wukong practiced water magic and fire magic. At first, the speed of condensing magic into magic was very slow. After mastering it, the fireball technique can be almost instantaneous.
The fireball technique is not very powerful, and Nan Wukong's existing fire magic power can be released about ten times.
Summoning the water element is a bit of a laborious skill. It requires some mental power and magic power to summon low-level elemental spirits to possess the water element body that you made with your magic power, so that you can fight with you.
However, the water element giant is equivalent to a melee warrior and has pretty good combat effectiveness.
As for the Thunder Armor Technique, Nan Wukong only practiced it quietly, because it was too troublesome to practice Thunder Magic and he had to go back to the sub-world, so he didn't practice much.
Practice magic in your free time and deal with government affairs at other times.
In fact, there is nothing left to handle in government affairs. Every household is busy growing vegetables, so there is no time to look for trouble.
The only government affairs handled these days are to ask the guards to repair the only school in the territory. For future development, Nan Wukong also asked the guards to take time to go to the school every day to take the children to exercise.
Occasionally, I went to see the people farming, and watched the farmer uncle plowing the land with hoe after hoe. Nan Wukong suddenly realized that in this backward era, there seemed to be no agricultural tools such as "ploughs", nor irrigation tools such as "waterwheels".
Although cattle are raised, they are only used for food and take the place of pigs.
In order to achieve better development, Nan Wukong returned to the sub-world and began to look for the design drawings of plows and waterwheels. He even flew back to China to search for them in museums.
For more than ten days, Nan Wukong even paid experts to design a special design. Then he returned to the territory with the design drawings. Except for the bearings of the waterwheel, he bought other things in the sub-territory and the blacksmiths and carpenters in the territory could make them.
"Lord, do we really have full responsibility for this design?" The blacksmith and carpenter looked at Nan Wukong in shock. The concept of the people in the territory is very similar to that of ancient China. They are all afraid of "teaching the disciples to starve the master to death." The design is
What you plant will not be shown to others.
"These two things are not allowed to be spread outside, you know!" Nan Wukong showed the majesty of a lord.
"I know! These two design drawings are my family heirlooms!" the carpenter and the blacksmith said in unison.
"Don't worry about the production. I will provide the money. I just ask for high-quality products!"
A week later, Nan Wukong came over to inspect and accept the work. Unexpectedly, the water truck and plow were completed, and the efficiency was pretty good.
After letting a farmer try it out, the effect was unexpectedly good, so Nan Wukong asked carpenters and blacksmiths to make it.
The bearings of the waterwheel are made of modern technology. Nan Wukong bought more than twenty more and took them to the territory to give to two craftsmen. If the wooden bearings or iron bearings were damaged, it would be very serious. Rather than having so much trouble, it would be better to complete it in one go.
As a lord, it is normal to inspect the territory. Fortunately, the people in the territory are simple and honest, and there is no cheating or deception. Except for the occasional presence of merchants from other territories in the market, there is nothing to pay attention to.
After going to the school to inspect, I learned that most of the more than a hundred children in the territory had simple and boring courses, either arithmetic, literacy, or just physical education. So Nan Wukong specially added blacksmith classes and carpentry classes to make the territory more accessible.
The blacksmiths and carpenters went to teach.
Some crops have begun to sprout and grow, and Nan Wukong has begun to invest in various constructions for future development.
Bought lime from Vice World and taught the citizens to make cement and then let them pave cobblestone roads.
Including the construction of commercial streets are also being re-planned.
Even in order to increase the population, Nan Wukong enacted a law to reduce taxes on having children.
Medical construction was also a top priority. Nan Wukong prepared many medicines and handed them over to the doctors in the territory for her to take charge of. To this end, various types of medicines were specially translated.
Nan Wukong's dedicated development kept him busy for more than a month, and then he had time to rest. (To be continued)
