Alien world

Chapter 182 35. Whose Dream Will We Be?
"How did you get here?"

The sudden crisp words were like a hand, pulling Annan out of the sticky mud. He saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl standing in front of the bookshelf, with curiosity and inquiry in her clear eyes.

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 observed Annan's cheek: "Are you new here? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"It's my first time here," Annan said.

It seemed that another snowstorm was approaching, and the lights of oil lamps and candles were lit around the library.

"I'm a junior administrator, what do you want to read? "Weird Illustrated Book" or "Herb Identification", "Elementary Alchemy Guide"?"

Fudot mentioned several book titles related to race and alchemy, and 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 was bright again.

Annan put down the weird "The Sunken Land" and went to the direction the girl was pointing at—that was the exit of the library.

Well, I really didn't come to the library with the idea of ​​learning knowledge.

Annan found another librarian, and found out during the chat that there was no librarian named Fodot here, and there was no girl of twelve or thirteen years old.

……

In the Mage Tower, Annan narrated his previous experience to Michael, remembering the forbidden books in Mr. Victor's basement: "Mr. Victor told me that some knowledge itself is power."

"Almost, the better the talent, the easier it is to perceive. Remember that 'Book of Filth'? It's also one of a kind."

As for whether the story is true or not...

"Who knows?" Michael said nonchalantly. "Just as 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 then activated the magic ring in Michael's room.

A large fire elemental appeared at the meeting, and Annan listened carefully. The sounds of those flames did indeed form words related to flames such as "burning", "burning", "igniting", and "blazing heat", but there were no complete sentences. will not answer.

Annan tried to imitate Elemental Language.The fire elemental says blazing, he also says blazing, the fire elemental says burning, he also says burning.Nothing happened except to make the already unstable fire element more restless.

"Will there be any abnormalities in the gathering of elements?"

"Except that elemental gathering will make elements gather."

The meaning of this nonsense is that the gathering of elemental creatures will bring together the elements in the area, making it easier to release the same kind of magic, and project some creatures from the elemental plane.

In any case, the elements say nothing.

The Elemental Corps program continues.

In the end, Annan went to the scavenger headquarters and told the centurion about the need for a scavenger in Xingyue Bay.

"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 spent one morning on this trip to Breeze City to complete all the matters.

Returning to the manor, the solid ice that had sealed Della hadn't melted. It seemed that the temperature had returned to normal. Della's complexion was no longer pale, but a little darker.

Annan wrote down what happened these days and waking up to find the ogre in a note, and put it on the table so that she would not wake up before she returned to Xingyue Bay and didn't know what happened, and then asked the maids to spend the next two days Find a time to check on Della's situation, Della continues to "hibernate", packs a gift for the ogre and goes to the warehouse.

"This is a gift I prepared for you, a whole piece of human-shaped candy, allowing you to enjoy the double pleasure of cannibalism and sweets at the same time."

This sentence, which seemed like an advertisement, inspired Annan, recorded it in his notes, and added an advertisement after "making more movies".

The ogre was quite satisfied, and after saying goodbye to Olmedo at last, the busy and young lord embarked on his return journey.

……

There are new changes in Xingyue Bay every day, or a complete house is added, or a straight road is added.

The price was that the originally wealthy Xingyue Bay suddenly faced a financial crisis.

At this time, outside the log house, Francois and Ingrid were arguing, and a soldier was sneaking in the distance.

"Why don't we pay the people a salary for the time being? They should be able to understand..."

"They will riot."

"Impossible, it's hard for the citizens of other territories to eat enough, not to mention their salaries..."

They think well.Francois said good things, Ingrid said bad things, the soldiers spread the news, and the leaders would take the initiative to propose to cancel the salary-but the appearance of Annan disrupted the arrangement.

"Salary must 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 is better to make the cake bigger.

……

The icy sea breeze penetrated directly into the collar.

The harsh winter made the bay completely frozen. Annan stood on the beach, watching the knights holding up their spears and poking around the bay.

The result of the survey is that there are a variety of fish schools under the ice.They can dig ice for fishing now, but it can only alleviate part of it. The food consumption in Xingyue Bay will not be really alleviated until spring.

Annan's "lord's mansion" was temporarily moved to a single-family house by the side of the low hill. The bedroom on the second floor was where Della was placed. He usually worked on the first floor and dealt with some trivial matters.

For example, the factory area is planned in the south, where the spinning mill and other factories in the future will be located.

For example, there are no fishermen who can weave fishing nets and fish in Xingyue Bay?Then grab it from Breeze... Please.

For example, if some citizens get sick, they will hire a "witch doctor" from Breeze City.

Xingyue Bay is becoming more and more prosperous, and its finances are becoming more and more exhausted.

After Ingrid warned again, Annan said: "I'll figure it out."

Everyone does not suspect him.It seems that it is not difficult to earn more than 1 kinnars for a piece of "The Fall of the Mage Tower", and it seems not difficult to make a few thousand gold coins for a magic video-but Annan knew that this would not work.In fact, "The Fall of the Mage Tower" is not tired of reading. For example, the residents of Xingyue Bay who have watched it more than [-] times have never been tired of it.What really makes "The Fall of the Mage Tower" cold is this winter.

A silver coin means burning firewood for half a month or a dozen pounds of bread. In other seasons, even a week of hard work can earn this money, but in the harsh winter, many people can hardly afford it.

"Countless nobles in Breeze City are proud to invite you, and you can come and go between banquets like a lady." Francois deliberately suggested.

The druids haven't returned yet, and the frost giant camp is still 160 miles away, but there's something wrong with the magic ring.

Murat gets the magic ring, but a gang suddenly appears to hunt him down.
