Mage Lord: The Tech Tree is Skewed by Me

Thorn collar.

At the moment when the loud noise resounded throughout the world, the Antolian militiamen blocked the streets after a brief surprise, and the soldiers of the garrison also immediately closed the city gates.

On both sides of the street, patches of fluorescent grass lit up the night in Thornland.

The soldiers' resolute faces were illuminated by dim light.

The peace during this period did not reduce the vigilance in the hearts of the soldiers. As the strongest force in Leon's hands, the soldiers of Antolia responded immediately.

This is the vigilance that the Antolian people have tempered with blood through the trials and ups and downs of the past.

At this moment, the lord's castle of the Jimena family was brightly lit.

Chief Butler Aaron, Archmage Albert...

Representatives of ancient tribes such as Fast and Kerman...

Antoria generals including Stan, Juan, and Andrew...

They didn't know exactly what happened, but they gathered around Leon immediately.

Your Majesty the Marquis, the Antolian militia has entered the city to maintain order, and the garrison stationed in the Thorn Territory has also closed the city gate.

Juan reported immediately:

In addition, the Lapruk Army is also on full alert.

There is no small matter in Abandoned Land.

This is a request that Leon mentioned to them before.

And the loud noise that came from the direction of the abandoned land and lasted for nearly a minute naturally made them wary.

After pondering for a moment, Aaron concluded:

The top priority is to find out what happened in the Abandoned Land.

Todd should send the news back as soon as possible, but just in case, a scout is also sent to the abandoned place to investigate the situation.

Leon said in a deep voice.

This was obviously not going to be a sonic boom.

There is absolutely no such level of technology in this era.

Moreover, if you say you are not worried, it will obviously be false.

after all……

The previous sound was definitely not just an ordinary roar.

Leon never minded using the highest degree of vigilance to assess threats that might exist in the abandoned land.

earthquake?

But Antolia didn't feel the earthquake at all.

Some kind of creature?

But even magical creatures such as giant dragons may not be able to make such a movement.

And not only the abandoned areas, but also the southwest highlands and the south bank of the Meyerson River must be sent to.

Leon added immediately.

After finally calming down, the Antolian people also started the lively Holy Spirit Festival.

But he didn't expect that something like this would happen again.

Can't you just let yourself enjoy the aristocratic life in peace for a few days?

Leon thought distressedly.

Everything is business as usual in the Territory of Thorns, but the guard strength of the old city in the Territory of Thorns needs to be strengthened to keep the soldiers of Antolia on alert at all times.

Without understanding what happened, this was the only decision Leon could make.

yes!

Everyone present responded.

Only after everyone retreated did Leon pull out the little pig bear that had already curled up into a ball from his pocket.

Chirp!

Arcas' claws struggled in the air.

How does this thing look like a World of Warcraft?

…

Abandoned place, Fort Wilson.

Todd, the governor of Fort Wilson, was currently sitting in his governor's tent under the World Tree.

Except for the prime location in Fort Wilson, the decoration of the objects in the governor's camp can be said to be simple.

Most of them were brought by Leon when he arrived in the abandoned land.

no way.

This land is filled with a large number of creatures and phenomena that the Antolian people do not understand. Instead of spending time repairing the governor's palace, it is better to spend more energy on the construction of the city wall.

In fact, just last night, Fort Wilson was obviously affected more strongly than the bursts of roaring noises that reached Antolia.

At that time, Todd even felt the earth shaking!

earthquake?

This was indeed Todd's original idea.

but……

Even though Todd had never experienced an earthquake, he was now certain that this was definitely not an earthquake.

Rather than calling it an earthquake, the feeling at that time was more like the ground beneath his feet moving extremely slowly under the influence of some force.

Not only did the civilians living in Fort Wilson not suffer any casualties, even the buildings under construction at Fort Wilson did not suffer any damage.

Only the skeletons living outside Fort Wilson became a little uneasy after the roar, and began to repeatedly break off the joints on their bodies, and then reinstall the bones on their bodies.

The style of painting is quite weird.

And as the night fades, the sun rises.

After experiencing a whole night of tension, Todd, as the governor of Fort Wilson, was finally able to see clearly the changes outside the city after dawn.

Outside the city there are still large areas of farmland.

But other than that…

many!

So many creatures that have never been seen before!

The loud noise in the middle of the night seemed to frighten the creatures living in the abandoned land inexplicably, driving them to flee to the edge of the abandoned land.

So at this moment, the rising sun dispelled the dark night, and countless creatures of various shapes finally gradually appeared in Todd's field of vision.

how to say?

Anyway, Todd feels that he is not very good at judging the appearance of those creatures.

It doesn't look like a living thing.

For example, for those mice that are about half a meter long, it is difficult for Todd to deduce whether they have mutated mice or whether carrots have turned into mice.

The sly eyebrows and rat eyes look exactly like those of a rat.

But the orange-yellow body is like an upside-down carrot, and it looks so weird and weird.

Another example is those lizards that seem to be carrying a bush on their backs.

Their whole body is covered in gray and green, and a few grasses come out of their mouths from time to time. It is really difficult for ordinary people to tell what kind of evolution they have undergone.

Mr. Governor, what should we do now?

The adjutant on the side asked hesitantly.

These creatures have not yet shown any obvious aggression toward humans, but these creatures living in abandoned places cannot always be taken at face value.

Who knows where they come from?

And it seems that because of the World Tree, these creatures are deliberately moving towards Fort Wilson.

If it weren't for the Antolian soldiers stationed at Fort Wilson who were already well prepared, they might have already crossed the unfinished city wall and entered the city.

Report to the Marquis immediately!

I'm afraid Antolia also heard such a loud noise yesterday.

To be honest, Todd was confused too.

Although he had already made plans to face various threats and strange creatures when he took over the job of Governor of Fort Wilson.

But can you not come together?

The citizens should not leave the city today. Drag all the horses and fences left behind to resist the attack of the pigs to the gaps in the city wall.

These creatures don't seem to be a big threat at the moment, but...

Who knows if there will be other hostile creatures?

Todd said in a deep voice.

As a native of Antolia, Todd has clear memories of those plateau hounds that suffered a thousand cuts.

And since the Antolians came to the abandoned land, they have never found any trace of those guys.

so……

Todd naturally has to face possible threats with the highest vigilance.

…

Early next morning.

The Emergency Report on Abnormal Events in the Abandoned Land document dictated by Todd and transcribed by the clerk was placed on Leon's desk.

According to the description of Governor Todd of Fort Wilson, due to changes that may have occurred deep in the Abandoned Land, a large number of creatures living on that land began to flee towards the outskirts of the Abandoned Land.

And this also exposed a large number of creatures that originally lived in the black mist to the eyes of the Antolian people for the first time.

So much so that after looking through the report carefully, Leon was not even sure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

The benefits are obvious.

The great changes that occurred in the Abandoned Land overnight brought a large number of creatures that originally lived in the depths of the Abandoned Land to the surroundings of Fort Wilson. This is very important for the Jimena family to accurately assess the value, significance and possible development of the Abandoned Land. The dangers faced in the process undoubtedly have great benefits.

But the shortcomings are also obvious.

That is, even at this moment, due to the darkness of the black mist, the Antolians still cannot figure out what kind of changes have occurred in the abandoned land, let alone what kind of changes such changes will bring to the Jimena family. What impact will it bring.

The state of emergency in the Thorn Territory can be lifted.

Leon took a deep breath and handed the report submitted by Todd into Aaron's hands: But the Bergoli Pass requires additional troops.

The Antolian militia and the Lapruk Army cannot move. Aaron added.

As the chief steward of the Jimena family, the most important thing in Aaron's eyes is always Leon's life safety.

so……

Before the alarm in the Abandoned Land is completely lifted, the Antolian militia commanded by Juan and the Lapruk Army under Andrew must guard around the Thorn Territory.

Then allocate a group of men from the garrison corps stationed in the southwest highlands to supplement the defense force of Bergoli Pass.

besides……

Aaron, do you think Hussein could use it?

After a moment of hesitation, Leon said the name of the Walrasian prisoner of war.

Didn't the Marquis already give him the identity of an Antolian and let him lead more than a hundred Walras prisoners of war to station in the Tila Grassland?

I mean... give him more power.

Does the Marquis want to follow the model of the Lapruk people and establish a Walrasian army on the land of the Abandoned Land?

Aaron confirmed aloud.

That may be an option in the future, but it won't be an option now.

Leon shook his head:

I plan to let Hussein expand the number of troops in his hands to five hundred men, and serve as the vanguard in the exploration of the abandoned land.

Walras has a strong body. If he can be used by me, he will be a considerable fighting force.

Leon's ambition was never just to become Lord of the Antolians.

All those who are willing to serve the Jimena family will be appointed by Leon.

In the past, this was true for the Lapluk people.

The same can now be said of the Walrasians.

I think it's okay.

After thinking for a long time, Aaron finally agreed.

If you are a noble of the Andal Kingdom, then appointing a Walrasian may cause controversy among other nobles.

But as the co-owner of the Antorians and the ancestors of Agares, Leon's approach is understandable.

This is like what Leon often mentioned to him before - unite all the forces that can be united.

As long as he is willing to be loyal to Leon and sacrifice his life for the Jimena family, Aaron is willing to regard him as the humerus of the Jimena family.

not to mention……

It's an abandoned place!

As the only human noble among the human nobles to march towards the abandoned land, Leon's ambition is in line with the Walrasian people's desire to be strong.

Coupled with the fact that one man is at the gate of Berigoli Pass, Aaron thinks it is quite feasible if he just instructs Hussein to form a team of 500 people.

But... before the situation in the abandoned land is known, please do not go to Fort Wilson, no! Don't even go to the Bergoli Pass!

God knows how uneasy Aaron felt when he heard that Leon personally led troops to fight against the pigs at Fort Wilson a few days ago.

Infantry against cavalry.

This is an act of narrow escape.

If the pigs' brains were not fully developed and their cerebellum was not developed at all, in short, their brains were not working well, the Antolian army would have paid a very heavy price even if they won.

This is not like disputes and conflicts between human beings.

Even if you lose the battle, you can redeem your lord with real benefits.

The alien race will not tell the human nobles these twists and turns of unspoken rules!

As the only direct descendant of the Jimena family, the last thing Aaron expected was for Leon to be in danger.

That time was a special situation. I could never leave my people behind.

Leon explained helplessly: There will be no next time. I promise that I will not go to the Abandoned Land until Todd has a clear understanding of the situation in the Abandoned Land.

Of course Leon is afraid of death!

As a time traveler, he cherishes his life in this life very much, and naturally he will not object for the sake of opposition.

Give Todd the order now to instruct Hussein to expand his team and explore the situation in the abandoned land.

In addition, Aaron, you personally draft a document and have it brought to the Moon Elf Queen Alicia. Just say that the matter of the Abandoned Land is not just the Antorians' own business. The Moon Elf is that land. For the aborigines on the planet, it would be best if the moon elves and humans can move together.

They will either provide elves, or provide fire and elves. If that doesn't work, they will provide a few monthly passes.

Just write it this way.

yes!

Aaron replied extremely seriously.

combine! No more today.
