Alien world

Chapter 1105 27. Delivery of the Golem
"Who are the nobles?"

Girardi was like a child who had been bullied and came home to complain. He listed a long list of names.

Olmedo, who was listening in, sent someone to get the elite members of the Free Blade - they knew best how to deal with the nobles.

The war was over, but Freeblade was not abolished. Olmedo preserved its structure and allowed it to develop freely like a scavenger.

Soon, Little Smalls led Dirk and another man in. As soon as he saw him, Dirk was surprised and asked, "Buster?"

The man named Buster felt guilty and didn't dare to look up at him: "Lord Annan gave me a chance to make meritorious contributions while serving my sentence..."

On the other side, Annan asked Olmedo: "Who are these two people?"

"You do not know?"

Annan looked innocent: "It's been so long, how would I know who it was?"

"If you were a woman you would remember it."

"Oh? Look at how jealous you are now~"

"I just think you are embarrassing. Have you forgotten that they were both undercover agents of the Free Blade in the new capital? Buster later betrayed Dirk, and it was you who gave him a chance."

"Oh... I remember now." Annan had some impression. "By the way, how is Louise? She is the priestess of the Maiden of Doom."

"She spends all day in the Pantheon, praying for the Maiden of Doom."

The Church of Doom is hated by everyone, and it is rare to see a temple with a statue of the god... It's just a bit heretical.

Annan thought for a moment and said, "Louise is powerful, but lacks love. You can send more people to take care of her."

"Why don't you go by yourself?"

"I have too many things to do." Facing Olmedo's contemptuous gaze, Annan said confidently: "I feel like I'm about to make a breakthrough."

Four years, seventh-level warlock.

It’s not slow by any means, after all, Annan has the best meditation materials and potions.

It’s just because there are not many magic spells that can be used. After getting the amulet, all I have to do when I encounter trouble is “Help me, Mr. Svarro”. It lacks the freshness and sense of accomplishment after a breakthrough... Only the innate spell that I can’t use can give me some expectations.

Annan had a reasonable excuse, so Olmedo had to take over the matter.

Compared to Annan's hands-on approach, Olmedo's methods are much more like those of a person in power.

In addition to the Free Blade, she also sent the Punishment Legion to accompany Girardi back to the Overwatch Territory without any hesitation.

Although the Punishment Legion is led by a great wizard, the Principality is not without resistance... It's just that the nobles are all scattered. As soon as the Liberty City army arrived, they opened their gates to welcome them, showing more respect than they did to Girardi.

Without any surprise, Girardi took over the Overwatch Territory and began to liquidate those nobles with the Free Blade... or rather, the Free Blade took Girardi.

The nobles in the city were silent, but fortunately the Free Blade only killed the main culprit.

The nobles wanted to resist or flee, but it was like child's tricks in front of the Punishment Legion, which was formerly the Legion of Evil. They easily captured the nobles who thought they were hiding well and defending well, and replenished the Duchy's treasury.

Then he pushed Girardi to the throne and announced in front of all the nobles: "Girardi is the Grand Duke of the Duchy. No one can offend him, and no one can destroy the friendship between the Free City and the Duchy!" Even Girardi himself could not do it.

The unusual behavior of Liberty City made some small lords around it uneasy. They were worried that Liberty City had tasted the sweetness in the war against Rekanel and wanted to use them as a target. Reports and requests for help were sent to the Empire.

When the news reached the empire overlooking Middle-earth, Montreal's first reaction was actually relief.

Annan finally became a qualified person in power.

Although they were happy, the Principality of Montamblelock was still nominally a vassal of the Empire. The Imperial Military Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs jointly dispatched officials to the Principality to challenge the accusation, only to find that the soldiers of the Free City had already retreated.

The Free City had no interest in ruling others, it just sent troops to help Grand Duke Girardi suppress some ruffians.

Now that they were here, the Imperial Military Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could not return empty-handed, so they turned their spearheads towards the local nobles.

As soon as the Free Blade left, the nobles had no time to breathe a sigh of relief before they were suppressed again by the Empire, which arrested several nobles to establish its authority.

The nobles of the principality, who had been beaten up alternately by the Free City and the Empire, became completely obedient. This time, let alone Girardi, even if a sheep was brought over, he could sit securely in the position of Grand Duke.

The imperial officials left, and the nobles thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief and stick their heads out... The female golem named Guardian appeared on the streets of Overwatch again.

The Golem factory started full operation as soon as it was completed. Hundreds of workers quickly became familiar with the process and stabilized the daily number of finished products at 20 units.

After all, the Golem Factory is mainly responsible for casting and assembly, and the added rune modules are purchased from the Empire - Wilhelm's things are good, but they are really expensive.

Apart from the money spent on building the factory, the combined cost of workers' salaries, materials, and modules is about the same as what Dumbledore said, 83 gold coins per unit.

Fine steel is not that expensive. Liberty City has its own iron mine and blacksmith shop. The money is mainly spent on purchasing modules, and this is a preferential price after bulk purchase.

Annan asked Mushroom House to develop the Rune Module: "In the short term, spending money to buy it saves time and effort, but our technology will never be improved. No matter how much money we make, we have to share it with others."

As for what to do if the Mushroom House is short of staff, Idilia is already working on it.

She summoned all the punitive corps and graduates from the school, asked the punitive corps to release the common language proficiency to the new citizens, and asked the graduates to give lectures to the new citizens in the open air.

There is no requirement for everyone to become smart, as long as they can simply learn addition and subtraction, it is enough to find some gifted children.

During this period, Annan came to Deng Lishao's laboratory, and he came up with a new module: malicious detection.

Since we use the Guardian Golem for patrolling, it would be more useful to add a module to detect surrounding malicious intent. However, the mold has been made, and dozens of finished products have been made. If we change our mind temporarily, it will take another ten days.

"It's okay. Keep researching. If you have any ideas that can be installed on the Guardian II, you can buy it for them again after it's done."

Annan hadn't intended to make a one-time deal. There were only so many people willing to buy the golems... Instead of expanding the business, why not expand the business and reap the benefits repeatedly?

In the midst of busyness, time came to February.

The 500 Guardian Golems ordered by Vitalig, Girardi and Ulmit were completed. They were neatly arranged in front of the logistics warehouse portal in the amazement of the people of Liberty City, representing a kind of power and order.

While Liberty City was developing rapidly, Annan was staying in the City Lord's Mansion in a gloomy mood.

Because Wilhelm’s invitation letter has not arrived yet.
