Mountain and Forest Kingdom

"To deal with dragons, it is of course best to send out dragon-slaying heroes."

Lawrence stood up and looked out the window. The windows in the office were old-style windows located on a wall three meters above the ground.

There was no concept of an office at the beginning, and this was not considered during the design. Neither the barbarians nor the nobles outside had the concept of a study.

Paper in this world is too precious, and books representing knowledge are also extremely scarce.

Nobles had few books at all, and only the churches and the homes of some special people would collect some books.

There is no concept of study and office, but the concept of cellar and maid's room, as well as various guest rooms and warehouse prison dungeon is taken seriously.

Lawrence's home had cellars, wine cellars, dungeons for disobedient maids and prisoners, and even an interrogation room.

The dungeon is now used as an ice cellar, and some rooms have been repurposed.

Lawrence looked at the tall windows. This height was not for lighting at all, but just to ensure ventilation and hear the sounds outside.

In winter, the windows are sealed and the room is illuminated by candles and lighting stones, so the lighting issue of the windows is not considered.

"Let's wait until there is more glass before renovating the place where we live. I feel that there are many places that need large-scale modifications. Maybe... we should find a new place."

Lawrence was thinking about his new residence. He had lived in this castle for more than five years, and many places seemed too crowded because of the big oak trees.

"Perhaps we should look on the other side of the mountain. There are many places in that area. We should be able to find a place with good terrain and not so cold in winter."

Lawrence had plans to build a new home, and soon called Salil to Lathander's house with Cassandra, Khalan and others.

Luosanda saw everyone coming and asked in confusion: "What happened?"

The others were also confused, especially Salil, who had no idea what was going on.

"I don't know. Lawrence said something happened and called us all over."

Lawrence said casually: "Everyone sit down and let me tell you something. Let's discuss it together and see if it's appropriate."

Everyone sat down on the carpet, and Lathander brought out a bucket of milk from the sterilization room not far away, and poured hot milk for everyone in the wooden teacups she made.

Because the temperature here is suitable, Lawrence often has people put the milk and eggs he needs to drink in Lathander's house, and use the high temperature here for disinfection.

Lathander doesn't mind this kind of thing, it just takes up a little space, and Lathander also has to eat these things.

Salil quickly stood up, "I'm going to get some candy."

Lathander didn't stop her and quickly sat down to drink milk without sugar.

Unlike those young witches, Lathander is accustomed to maintaining some ascetic training. She usually eats a lot of delicious food, but she also drinks some unprocessed milk to clear her taste.

Lawrence respects every woman's preference and is willing to accommodate everyone as long as it does not affect others.

When Salil came back with the sugar bowl and everyone started to add sugar to the hot milk and taste the hot milk, Lawrence also said his plan.

"A fire dragon has appeared over at the church that can fly on the sea and breathe fire to burn more than a dozen ships. I will send someone to deal with this fire dragon later."

Salil held her glass teacup in one hand, took a sip of hot milk, and asked slowly: "Aren't you going?"

"No." Lawrence said: "You can leave this kind of matter to the people below. I think you should understand that the fire dragon is just an obstacle that needs to be eliminated for me, but for many warriors, it is the best opponent. , and the pinnacle of glory.”

Sariel wondered: "Why should I understand?"

Delen couldn't stand it anymore and reminded: "What he said is that if Andrew is here, he will definitely challenge this fire dragon."

"Oh..." Salil nodded, then lowered her head and took a sip of hot milk, "That seems to be the case."

Lawrence felt that as time went by, Salil had accepted Andrew's death very calmly. As long as others did not use this to ask Salil intentionally and asked if Salil missed her father, then Salil would behave very calmly. normal.

The most annoying thing is that someone reminds me repeatedly, as if I have to live sadly.

Lawrence basically didn't mention Andrew's affairs, and Salyl had been living with a group of witches who had no father and no mother for a long time, so she acted very calmly.

Sofia has never thought of avenging her parents, Heidi is also a bird, and all the witches' families have dead husbands or fathers, but whether it is Clara, Lolita, or Finn and Yulia, they have never I don't care about this grudge.

The same is true for Catherine and Cassandra. For these witches, there is no need to worry about hatred being passed down from generation to generation.

It’s impossible, I’ll forget about it in a few years.

On the contrary, the human race, especially mortals, are particularly prone to holding grudges. A bit of hatred can be remembered for a lifetime, or even passed down from generation to generation.

Lawrence didn't want to remind anyone of hatred. Whether it was Heidi Sophia or the witch family, so many witches around him basically came here because of trouble. If they reminded each other of hatred, everyone would not be able to play happily together.

"The fire dragon is a dangerous and terrifying monster, and it is also a proof of honor for the warriors to chase it."

Lawrence continued: "I don't care about the danger of the fire dragon, nor do I care about the strength of the church. Whether it's us or several outside kingdoms, the big forces that can continue to this day have some tyrannical trump cards."

"The Church of the Dawn is indeed very powerful. The Gran, Io, and Fili we have occupied so far are only its radiation range, not its foundation."

“Just like our current Gran and Io, the population of these two places accounts for 90% of our total population, but even without these two places, we still have a strong deterrent effect. "

"This is what the Church of the Morning is like now. The most troublesome thing for me now is that the church has air power."

"If their flying dragons pass through the mountains and come directly to our Oak City area, then our people here will get into trouble if we don't find out in time."

"My idea is to build another city on the west side of the mountain, one that has offensive and defensive capabilities, and can also cover some special facilities, such as gunpowder factories, glass factories and other advanced technologies."

Kassandra frowned and said: "It is indeed a big trouble. The knight on the back of the flying dragon is definitely not an ordinary knight. If it is an extraordinary person like a wizard, or a magician, it will cause us a lot of trouble."

The destructive power of a wizard is far greater than that of a bomb.

If paired with a flying creature like a flying dragon, it could indeed threaten Lawrence.

Lawrence said: "I believe that the pastor of the church doesn't want to die, and he doesn't want to take the risk of coming to us to cause trouble, but if we don't guard against this kind of thing, we won't be able to sleep well at all."

The threat of flying dragons was indeed great. Jade quickly thought of something and suggested to Lawrence: "We can also breed flying dragons. There are bipedal flying dragons in the swamps in the south."

Before Lawrence could say anything, Kharan said quickly: "We can't feed the wyvern babies at all. Without the care of the adult wyverns, those wyvern babies won't eat at all, and even if they eat, they will be very tired." Die soon."

"Then find a way!" Lawrence affirmed: "You can ask some local tribesmen near the swamp. I think the aborigines near the swamp know how to deal with flying dragons better than us."

Kassandra asked: "Even if we can raise a bipedal flying dragon, it won't change the fact that we can't defend against those priests who suddenly come over. Sophia's perception ability can't detect enemies too far away. By the time the flying dragon comes, it's already too late." .”

Lawrence said: "So I want to establish cities and outposts in the plateau area, and then strengthen our residence, and eliminate the dragons of the church as soon as possible."

"Their flying dragons must eat a lot every day, especially if they want to fly over the Agama Mountains and have to eat midway. If we build a city and set up rangers in the forest, we can detect problems in time."

"Furthermore, I will design a new type of long-range anti-aircraft cannon, specially used for slaying dragons!"

The emergence of the fire dragon stimulated the development of military technology in the Kingdom of Stars and stimulated the barbarians' desire to conquer foreign countries.

It also stimulated Lawrence's control over the supply line, allowing Lawrence to once again gain control over the Agama Mountains behind him.
