Our family is in decline

Chapter 288 Developing the Wilderness

Hamlet is not big, but it displays a vitality that even a big city cannot match.

As Amanda walked on the street, it was the first time she saw so many people with smiles on their faces and being very friendly to each other.

The people who work are also working very hard, and there is no sign of laziness at all. What is even more strange is that there is no church in this town, and even the graves have been dug.

You know she's been to so many places, you can have no administrative bureaucracy, but you will definitely have churches of churches, and walking clergy, who are the real controllers at the bottom.

But not even half of the clergy were seen here. The people responsible for managing the town's operations were ordinary people.

As they walked in Hamlet, everything in the town was managed in an orderly manner, and there was no trace of bureaucracy in the administrative staff.

Here she couldn't see those soldiers who couldn't stand straight and looked helpless, nor did she see those savage and chaotic mercenaries who appeared everywhere.

Replaced by security team members, these people are professional enough to become aristocratic private soldiers, but here they are only used to maintain law and order.

Under their protection, Hamlet's level of security was simply beyond Amanda's understanding.

There were no thieves, gangsters, bullies, or fights. Everyone got along well, and it was completely peaceful and peaceful.

Of course, that's because Amanda arrived late. It had just been a round of severe crackdowns, and those guys who had just become bureaucratic were still digging mushrooms in the wilderness.

Those who dared to disrupt public order were all severely punished, using tough measures in the context of peace and stability.

To a certain extent, this was a wonderful misunderstanding, but it also made Amanda feel quite good about this place.

Except for some anti-social guys, people are always instinctively inclined towards beauty.

The better the town behaves, the more she becomes curious about it and the man standing behind Hamlet.

But after going around, Amanda discovered a very embarrassing situation, that is, those people showed resistance to herself, a foreigner, especially when they inquired about relevant things in the town, they attracted vigilant eyes.

He even alerted the sheriff, and after being taken in for questioning, he learned that he was suspected of being a cultist.

But Amanda didn't feel timid at all, and instead spoke to the Sheriff confidently.

"Your Lord Lance and I are friends. If you don't believe me, you can come to him."

"The lord hasn't come back yet, I'm going to notify Sheriff William." The sheriff seemed a little helpless, but he didn't expect that his unintentional words would expose the lord's whereabouts.

Amanda also confirmed something when she heard this. The army had returned last night, but the lord was not with them, which was strange.

According to the guaranteed leave after the operation, William took leave last night after attending the celebration banquet, but he came immediately after hearing that a woman in strange clothes was brought back to the Sheriff's stronghold.

He knew a little bit about Amanda. She was a killer who was chasing the Roma man, but he was imprisoned by the lord for hurting someone in Hamlet. How could he be released so quickly?

William doesn't want to get involved in the conflict between them, but Hamlet's law and order regulations absolutely do not allow provocation!

But when William arrived, he saw her chatting with a sheriff, and there was no sense of distance from a stranger at all.

"Ahem!"

William reminded him. The sudden appearance of the leader made the Sheriff make a decision and stood up suddenly to report.

"Hello, Sheriff!"

William did not pay attention to the greetings from his men, but looked at Amanda. His scrutinizing eyes were full of distrust. Who told her that she had just been released?

But he still put it back to the Sheriff, "Come out with me first."

"So what happened?"

"We received reports from the masses..."

Initially, he thought Amanda was caught causing trouble, but only now did he realize that the killer was not causing trouble. He was only reported by the townspeople for acting suspiciously, and was brought back for questioning.

As for the outcome of the questioning...

William knew from the look of the sheriff that the young man had been deceived by a woman, and there was a somewhat angry look on his face.

"What did she ask you? What did you tell her? I hope you still remember the confidentiality regulations."

"No! No! She asked about very common things that everyone knows. I didn't say anything about other things."

In any case, he has been trained to keep secrets, and he will not lose his mind after just a few words.

"You go back and write a report detailing the conversation just now."

"Yes!" Although the Sheriff was a little helpless, he still agreed.

William's approach to justice is faced by everyone, and he will not relax his demands just because he is his subordinates. On the contrary, he needs to demand them more strictly.

Because they are responsible for Hamlet's security issues, and if they are not handled correctly, chaos may occur.

There was almost a problem that time before, but it was Leonard's quick response and the troops that came to suppress it that prevented any serious trouble.

Although the Lord did not criticize this matter, he praised him for doing a good job.

In fact, William knew that what he did was not good enough, otherwise the army would not be dispatched for matters that were within his scope of work.

The reaction of his men just now also reminded him of Leonard's words at the award ceremony. He knew that some people were relaxed, but the danger never disappeared. It was just that the Lord stood at the front and blocked the danger. So they can feel stable.

The existing professional quality is no longer enough. The security team cannot hold back the lords. They must strengthen training and dig deeper into how to perform their functions.

But now we need to deal with this trouble first.

After sending his men away, William re-entered, looking at Amanda who also had a headache.

He doesn't have a good impression of killers and people who have committed crimes. If it is certain, he will imprison the person and wait for the lord to come back to deal with it.

But Hamlet is not in those places. She has not committed any crime and cannot be detained without reason.

So he could only take out the rules and regulations of Hamlet and hand them over, emphasizing: "You must abide by these rules in Hamlet."

Amanda walked out of the Sheriff's Station, feeling somewhat bewildered herself.

She originally wanted to find someone to learn about this town. If ordinary people didn't want to tell her, just ask the sheriff, but she was sent out before she could say anything.

Although she was somewhat confused about these people, these police officers were all very well-behaved and did not embarrass herself, which made it a little difficult for her.

Amanda has never been a good person. Her view of the bureaucracy cannot even be said to be a prejudice, but a law.

If those magistrates just gave her a hard time, that would give her an excuse.

Haven't you always emphasized the rules? Now it's your people who are unruly at the front.

This will be a bargaining chip between her and Lance, but Amanda has never forgotten about Tamara.

Since Tamara is hiding here through the rules, she just needs to break the rules and find loopholes.

It's a pity that the police officers were very serious. They neither asked for bribes or framed her, nor did they use any tricks. They just asked her briefly, explained the rules to her, and then let her go.

This made her a little confused as to where to start.

Amanda knew that this guy Tamara would definitely not leave this shelter that she had found with great difficulty.

Do you really want to spend time with her here?

In this regard, she could only find her own car. This kind of carriage made by Roma has special extraordinary powers. Only by holding the "key" can one enter or exit, otherwise it will only trigger an alarm or a trap.

And Amanda found no signs of forced entry. Did the man really not move at all?

But he didn't care about that at this time. He immediately took out the black crystal ball with a golden base and lit the incense. With the help of the ritual left in the carriage, Amanda quickly contacted the inside of the organization.

She had been missing for seven days without completing anything, and the things she encountered were too strange. She needed to ask her superiors for instructions on whether to continue the mission.

At the same time, she also needs to understand what happened to the outside world during the time she was imprisoned.

Roma tribes wander around the world. For their own safety, they will deliberately collect all kinds of information in the world, and this communication method also gives them the ability to transmit messages over long distances.

After years of development, this trend has gradually integrated into a huge information network, and omen seekers are actually "people looking for information."

That is what intelligence dealers mean. They are a famous intelligence organization in the world. Their strength can be seen from Tamara, a guy who has left the organization and still knows a lot of intelligence in the world.

And obviously, the information about Hamlet Town and Lance has also become an intelligence.

It is precisely because of its value that Amanda is willing to abide by the rules temporarily and does not want to directly offend Lance. Tamara can't run away anyway.

Of course, the premise of all this is the strength shown by Lance. If Lance couldn't beat her, then Amanda wouldn't care about a small town.

The message is being passed on…

After a night's rest, Lance led the team to continue to Hamlet.

The expected harassment last night did not appear, and the Ascended Cultists completely disappeared into the wild jungle as if they had really left.

After getting some rest, the rest of the team also recovered. It has to be said that the Demon Hunter has a strong physique. He only needs four hours of sleep to feel full of energy, and he recovers quickly from his physical injuries. No wonder he can survive in one night. Just heal yourself from the wounds you got from fighting the wizard.

What a terrifying recovery ability.

Lance felt that Geralt was not inferior to him in other aspects except for being slightly weaker than him. Moreover, he also mastered the ability of sigil. He was also a demon hunter with rich combat experience and proficient in killing. He was called [ Master] makes sense.

But he is not bad either. The plug-in allows him to heal injuries, has the ability to continue fighting without getting tired, and is immune to mental attacks.

Hmm~ That’s right, being able to reach the level of [Master] is all due to my own efforts.

"At that time, the Ascension sect teamed up with the cannibal witch hiding in the wilderness to spread the plague to Hamlet. Many people in the town were infected with the blight. In order to save them, I led the team deep into the wilderness, killed the witch, and then found the cure. s method……"

On the way back, we inevitably entered a corrupted area in the wilderness.

The development has not yet reached this point, but you can still see the terrifying sight of being swallowed by fungi. The weird, twisted and tall mushrooms left a deep impression on Geralt and the others.

After losing the control of the witch, it is still spreading outward at a stable speed, and the spore cloud shrouding this place does not know when it will dissipate.

And this is one of the directions that Lance is working towards. If you want to get to the old site, you must open up the wilderness.

Likewise, he chose this path not to take a shortcut, but to investigate the path from Hamlet to the entrance to the den.

Although he does not plan to provoke the monsters in the cave now, as the scope of wilderness development becomes larger and larger, he will definitely have to deal with them when the time comes.

If you do your research now, then if you want to launch an army to suppress them, at least you won't be unaware of this.

Lance knew that he had little ability or talent, but he knew that as long as he was prepared in advance, victory would be tilted in his favor.

The beast cave is in the northwest of the wilderness, and the ruins are in the north of the wilderness. This road only needs to repair the old road leading to the north, and then open up a westward road. There is no need to completely build a new road.

During this inspection, Lance and his team finally returned to the frontier development camp, which was very lively.

Trees were cut down, shrubs and weeds were harvested, and the huge mushrooms were collected. There were several iron buckets set on the fire beside them.

This is a specially customized iron bucket. It is connected by dense rivets and supported by an iron frame. It also has an additional device like a guide tube on it. It looks somewhat like a scrap metal style. Simply put, it is very ugly.

Wood in a corrupted area cannot be used for other purposes, but can be used to burn charcoal. The high temperature will remove all corruption.

People cut the wood into pieces and stuffed them into iron barrels, closed them and sealed them with soil to completely cut off the air, and then set up bonfires underground to burn them.

It only requires a small amount of firewood to ignite, and the iron pipe on top extends out, spraying out wood gas through the furnace, and at the same time, a black turbid viscous liquid drips from the other side, which is wood tar.

Use self-produced wood gas to complete carbon burning, saving most of the firewood, and at the same time, no waste gas will be emitted to cause pollution.

When the time was almost up and the sealing mud was broken open, all the wood inside had now turned into black charcoal, and any fungi that might have remained on it had long since been reduced to ashes in the high temperature.

After the plants near one place have been cut down, move the big iron stove to the next place, and then plan a place, set a fire on the dried shrubs and weeds, and let the flames purify everything.

The burnt black land began to be plowed, and the fermented organic fertilizer was mixed into it to open up square farmland.

There are also some specially planned medicinal fields that have been cultivated more carefully in preparation for transplanting and planting medicinal herbs and precious plants that were discovered in the wilderness development.
