Happy people from Blue Star

It took Hadi more than a day to return to the sphere of influence of the city of Basov.

From a distance, you can see the huge purple tree canopy, stretching for several kilometers.

The 'light' shining from below adds a special 'halo' layer to this huge purple tree crown, which looks quite psychedelic and mysterious.

Thanks to the development strategy set by Hadi at the beginning, Basov is very fond of infrastructure construction.

As long as there is extra money and food, he likes to hire people to build roads.

There are now several wide avenues around Basov for travelers to walk on.

There were many people coming and going on the road, most of them were businessmen, and a small number were people who had fled with their families.

Compared to a year ago, the city of Basov is really lively now.

Even more lively are the farmlands on both sides of the road, with canals crisscrossing. Large groups of people gather around the farmlands, looking around and unable to contain their joy.

The reason is simple. In less than two months, the newly planted crops are almost mature.

The arrival of the World Tree previously caused the destruction of a large amount of farmland, and the people in the territory at that time were almost in despair.

The Lord's Mansion did provide one month's rations, and combined with what he already had, he could indeed live two or three more months.

But what about after that?

I thought there would be a famine, even though the Lord's Mansion had advertised many times that new crops would mature quickly.

But few people really believe it.

Thinking that this was just a "pacifying move" by the Lord's Mansion, they followed the Lord's Mansion's orders and planted new crops, just hoping that... they might be able to hold on until that time.

Then they watched the seedlings grow day by day, much faster than they had imagined.

Only then did I gradually feel relieved.

Now, it is estimated that in two or three days, the crops will be fully mature, and the farmers are naturally very happy.

Such a strange sight also attracted many foreign businessmen and refugees to watch.

Some skinny refugees looked at the crops that were about to mature, with greed flashing in their eyes.

In a blink of an eye, they saw the patrols walking around fully armed and murderous, and they suppressed their thoughts in their hearts and dared not show them.

Hardy walked beside the field and watched for a while.

He was then spotted by a male sheriff who was on patrol.

He trotted over, bowed, and said, "Sir Hadi, Ms. Qili said that if she sees you, she will inform you and ask you to return to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible."

"Thank you." Hardy nodded to him.

The sheriff said he dared not.

Hardy quickened his pace and rode his warhorse back to the gate of the city lord's mansion.

As soon as he dismounted and walked in, he was thrown into someone's arms.

It was Nefertiti, her eyes moistened: "Dad, you took so long to come back, I missed you so much."

Hadi brought her to him, kissed her forehead, and said with a smile, "I'll tell Nana a story tonight and coax you to sleep, okay?"

"Okay." Nefertiti nodded excitedly.

At this time, Qili hurried down from upstairs. She looked at Hadi and was obviously relieved: "You are finally back."

Hadi looked at her: "What happened?"

Qili looked at Nefertiti in Hadi's arms without saying a word.

Neferti was actually very smart. She jumped down from Hadi's arms and said, "Sister Qili, you talk to dad about business. I'll wait in the room first."

After saying this, she ran upstairs, dragging her shoes.

Qili looked around. Although there were servants in the main hall, they were too far away to hear the two of them talking. "Things are a bit troublesome." Qili took a deep breath. "Sixth brother found us earlier and said that there was a problem in the Red Soil Plain. The sentry post where mother and Lolonia were was shrouded in a circle of black fog and disappeared."

"Didn't you send anyone in to look for it?"

"We tried it. No matter how many people went in, they couldn't see anything five meters ahead of them. Even with an oil lamp, they couldn't see the road. They walked out. Sixth Brother also asked many magicians to help, trying to blow away the black fog with a hurricane, but it didn't work at all. The fog seems to be a very special ability. Neither magic nor physics has any effect on it."

Hardy thought for a while, but there was no such spell in his memory.

Even the fog of war simply makes it difficult to tell the direction.

Besides, the fog of war can be blown away with strong wind magic.

Hardy looked around: "Where's Claire?"

"She left the day before yesterday." Qili sighed and said, "I'll stay and wait for you. Please, I beg you. I know that your relationship with mother is not very good, but I still hope you can save her."

Hardy frowned and pondered.

Qili took a step forward, pulled Hadi's sleeve, and whispered, "You should also know about Fina's prophecy. I remember she told you about it."

When saying this, Qili looked very conflicted.

Hardy nodded.

"Although it's a matter of the future, but rounding it off, Mom is actually your woman, you can't not save her." Qili said in a resentful tone: "Maybe you and Mom are connected because of this 'opportunity'. When the time comes, the three of us will accompany you, just like the prophecy, right..."

As she spoke, Qili's face turned red.

She remembered again the happy and ecstatic look of her mother in Fina's crystal ball.

It's really full of temptation, much better than their two daughters.

Hadi thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow morning."

When he came back this time, Hardy still had a lot of things to explain and deal with.

"Thank you." Qili's eyes were red. After hugging Hadi for a while, she said, "The greatest luck for my sister and me is that we have chosen you."

Then she wiped her eyes and smiled, "I'll go back and get ready."

After that, she ran upstairs and returned to her room.

Hardy returned to the study, stayed there for a while, and looked around. There were not many government affairs that needed to be dealt with.

After all, the eleven succubi are not just there to eat.

Not long after, Judy came in. Without saying anything, she crawled under the desk.

Half an hour later, he came out, wiped his mouth elegantly with a silk scarf, and said, "Hadi, more and more spies have infiltrated our city."

"Should we not allow outsiders to enter the city at will now?"

"I was bribed." Judy shrugged helplessly: "There are always people who sell their souls for temporary benefits."

"For spies, if there is evidence, just send them to build roads."

Judy laughed. "That's a good idea. There's another thing you should know."

"whats the matter?"

"Aya's church was discovered by her."

"Huh?" Hadi was stunned: "When did it happen?"

"Just ten days ago."

"How did she react?"

"She felt ashamed and embarrassed," Judy laughed. "Then she smashed her own statue and moved into the church, forbidding us to erect another statue of her." (End of chapter)
