Therefore, he broke into Lana's room on the night of staying in the Lord's Mansion. Looking at the girl on the bed who had changed into her pajamas and was covered with a quilt, he rushed forward with great interest and directly lifted her quilt:

"Lana!"

"No, no...! We are too young...!" Lana, who seemed to have misunderstood something because of his actions, shrank back with flushed cheeks, and shyly said: "It's too early, still....."

"It's okay! Age is not a problem! Time is not distance!"

"But... well, if you must give it a try, then I..."

"——Lend me some money!" He said try it, he didn't have the embarrassment of ordinary borrowers, rubbed his hands and approached again.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Borrowing money...?" The girl was dumbfounded.

"If I remember correctly, the king should have given you a lot of money over the years, lend me all of it! I will pay you back double in one year!"

"No...no need, since it's what you want to do, I will definitely support you with all my strength! After all, we are best friends!"

(Running to my room for most of the day, not because of my body, but just to borrow money?! Are you really a man!) The expression on Lana's face seemed to say, you are so out of touch, but in your heart Can't wait to give him a slap.

"That's so kind..."

"Why is there such a difference between us?"

"That's right, then I'm not going to be polite."

"Well! Just use it, what's mine is yours!"

Although the direction of the topic was a thousand miles away from what she had imagined, Lana still stretched out her hand to wrap Luo Mo's with an unpretentious, very natural gentle smile, and Luo Mo also shook back with emotion. raised her hand.

The two young children seem to attach great importance to each other's friendship, but in their hearts...

(I knew it would be like this, this guy's face is really thick... sooner or later, I will let you pay me with interest, and pay me by the way!)

(You can just pretend, but this is what you said yourself. Since what is yours is mine, then mine must still be mine, right? Don’t regret it then!)

.....................

.....................

Relying on Lana's financial support and the reward from the king, Luo Mo directly started his own plan.

I bought dwarves, elves, and a group of humans from the slave market, and gathered them to help them make breech-loading flintlock guns and paper. The problem of magic steel is not a problem at all, and at the same time, they began to call up regular troops.

With the assistance of Lana, he also set up an epoch-making institution, issued new bills to reduce taxes, increased the loyalty of the people to him, and strengthened productivity.

By the way, concentrating serfs improved farming methods and allowed farmers to work to increase food production.

While studying the method of secrecy, he directly made great efforts to reform it.

The sales of paper, once launched, sell well in various countries.

The flintlock gun was regarded as a precious magic weapon, and he bought it at a very high price, which solved his financial problem cleanly.

The first harvest season of grain has also been considerably improved. Five thousand soldiers have been set up with a unified slogan, a consistent salute method, the same style of military uniform, and a common belief, so that they highly identify with their territory and themselves.

.... To put it simply, it refers to the brainwashing method of Germany in World War II.

In the blink of an eye, another year passed, and the entire army became united, excited and full of passion. Even the territory was affected to show a high degree of cohesion, and the originally ordinary territory directly became the wealthiest and most vibrant in the entire kingdom. territory.

Residents from other nearby territories also came here admiringly. They came to settle in Luomo's territory, which directly tripled the population, and the number of troops increased from 3000 at the beginning to [-] because of the sufficient treasury.

Although only more than 500 people were equipped with flintlock guns due to the production of flintlock guns, he still asked people to get all kinds of smoothbore guns out for fun according to his requirements.

"People in the old days were just easy to fool, or... brainwashing is always easier to win people's hearts?"

On the newly built towering castle, looking down at the soldiers standing guard with bayonets and flintlock guns, and the cavalry patrolling carefully with swords on their waists and spears on their backs wrapped in armor, and the ever-changing streets in the distance. ...but felt a void.

There is no way, the leap forward that is too simple to complete, it is really impossible to achieve a sense of accomplishment.

Moreover, humans in this world are too weak, subhumans have too obvious advantages over humans, and the gap between human bases is too great. Even if you use flintlock guns to fight against humans, they are very effective against humans, but they can't hit strong individual artillery. Can break through the array for slaughter.

In terms of dealing with humans, there is no need to exaggerate too much. A hundred-man flintlock team with a lot of ammunition, if there are no masters, it sounds exaggerated to kill the neighboring empire or kingdom, but it is not difficult.

The morale of ancient soldiers was generally low, and their ability to withstand casualties was low. Not to mention that the soldiers in this world were generally composed of ordinary civilians. From what Luo Mo knew about the past... 180 men were old-fashioned arquebuses that were lower than the rear-loading flintlock. The colonial team defeated the Inca Empire, where the Inca king had tens of thousands of troops alone, and completely conquered the Inca Empire with a hundred or so people after several battles.

Theoretically, a hundred musketeers can take over the kingdom, but in reality, there is no way to do it... It's not that they are inferior to the colonial team, it's just that the kingdom has steel-level fighters.

The mobility of the fine steel class will become a big problem. Even if he can solve the morale problem with faith and will not collapse easily, it is really difficult for the centurion to fight against the fine steel class.

After all, even for him, the steel level and even the hero level are too weak to be motivated, but they are at the limit of human beings without using martial arts. If they use magic equipment and magic to properly exceed the limit of human beings, an army composed of ordinary people is really not good. deal with these people.

This also means that he has to cultivate a strong individual to fight against. The problem is that a human individual wants to cultivate a superhero. For him personally, it is more difficult than letting the territory enter the industrial age in advance, so he directly gave up this option.

And it was precisely because of the rapid development of the territory that he suddenly became a thorn in the side of the kingdom's nobles, and even the king gradually became afraid of him as a child.

No way, who made him refuse to share papermaking, flintlock guns, and gunpowder technology with the king, and the [-] well-equipped professional troops were a huge threat to the kingdom.

Especially the [-] troops using flintlock guns, the power of directly piercing ordinary plate armor is almost equal to that of magic equipment. To the kingdom, this is basically an army in mythology, and it is really unscrupulous.

It is not stingy that Luo Mo did not give these things. One is that the king did not dare to ask for them directly, and the other is that he thinks that the corrupt kingdom will only make these technologies lose their value...even if he himself does not like them.

.....................

Everything in the territory is thriving, the population and the military are booming, and the undercurrents are surging outside the territory. The nobles from all over the place are sharpening their knives and trying to get some oil from Luo Mo, but they are afraid that no one in the territory will dare to do anything.

Luo Mo naturally knew something about what was going on around him, but he didn't care about those nobles at all, and it was too troublesome to even talk to them.

Lana behaved as usual, and handed him the black tea with a smile on her face while holding the tray, and said with concern:

"Carlos, what are you looking at? It's getting cold, why don't you drink some tea to nourish your stomach?"

"Oh, thank you."

Looking away from the street below, he took the tea casually and drank it down.

Then... as if suddenly feeling exhausted, he sat down on the sofa behind him, looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh as if he had lost interest in everything.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Lana hurriedly leaned over to observe with a worried face, Luo Mo closed her eyes and waved her hands lazily: "It's okay...just a little tired, I don't feel interested in anything."

"Really? Then let me give you - redefine the meaning of life?"

Smiling and muttering, Lana sat directly on his lap, pressing both hands on the sides of his cheeks, the cute smile on her immature face gradually turned into a dark smile.

"The meaning of life? What are you talking about?" Luo Mo opened his eyes speechlessly, looked at the girl above who was acting like a monster, and said in astonishment, "Speaking of... what are you doing?"

"...I'm taking your temperature?"

The darkness disappeared in a blink of an eye, and Lana once again showed him a pure and innocent smile.

"...Sitting on the body? Pressing on the face?"

"Yes~ how is it? Lana's body temperature...do you feel it?"

While whispering softly, Lana's cheeks gradually turned red, and her blue pupils also became moist, making one unable to help but be attracted by it.

However....

"I'm not talking about you, do you want to seduce me or take my temperature, and how does taking your temperature turn into feeling your temperature? You should choose one of the three first?"

"Sex...to seduce?"

"Are we only nine years old? Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Just kidding~ yes~ just kidding~ this is just a little joke with you~"

Facing Luo Mo who was indifferent and even complaining mercilessly, Lana stood up from him with a smile, picked up the plate that was thrown on the ground and left here unhurriedly.

Luo Mo, who was on the sofa, didn't say anything else, just looked at her back in the distance speechlessly, almost... no, it was absolutely certain that she had put some medicine in the tea.

But he was born as the strongest ghost race among demi-humans. In principle, human medicines should be properly adjusted for their specificity, otherwise they will not be effective at all.

.....................

.....................

To be honest, even after being together for three years, Luo Mo still doesn't quite understand why Lana is obsessed with herself.

There are quite a few possible suspicions, maybe it's interesting to have a comparable opponent?Want to feel a sense of accomplishment by beating yourself? ...he just couldn't figure it out.

But since he didn't notice the hostility, he didn't bother to care, and continued to lazily bask in the sun on the sofa, hoping that time would pass faster.

But...just when he was about to close his eyes again, the engraving spell on the back of his hand suddenly flashed light, and a flock of birds flying past his eyes also stagnated in mid-air at this time.

Since he had been in contact with Xin Ke in the past, it was naturally impossible for him to be defenseless against time and space attacks.

The engraving technique of time acceleration can accelerate the separation of one's own time from the external time, resisting the possibility of suspending time to kill oneself in seconds, or activate the engraving variant to create time distortion, so as to resist the attack of space and time.

Originally, it involved quite a lot of time consumption, but it seems that because the world itself is too fragile, time and space can be easily broken through. Even now, he can easily support the consumption caused by activating the engraving technique.

"... Time has stopped? It's really similar to the precursor of the sea of ​​trees, but... the confrontation caused by the engraving technique obviously took me as the target, but the sacred tree should not target me. Time has to stop."

He glanced at the engraving spell that was emitting a faint red light on the back of his hand, and unconsciously looked around in this time-stagnant world, trying to find the object that caused the time anomaly.

But before finding the target, the system created by the Ex-Machina core in his head showed a prompt first:

[When a time-based attack is detected, the inverse calculation begins-end, the reproduction design is successful, and the synchronization can be started at any time. 】

"...Sure enough, fighting with people directly is the most effective means of strengthening." The ability of the Ex-Machina made him reproduce the ability of someone who didn't know it in less than a second.

This also made his salty fish heart, which was already so boring and almost could only bask in the sun, become active in an instant.

But just as he was about to search for the strong man who used Time-Stop Magic, light footsteps came from behind him first, as well as a somewhat immature but clear and sweet voice:

"Oh~ Can you resist time magic? You really are not that simple."

Far from what was expected, the petite girl who looked like she was only in junior high school walked out of the shadow at the corner without haste.

The girl's hair is very unique and eye-catching, the colors on the left and right sides are different, half silver hair and half black hair, and the pupils of the eyes are in the opposite position.

Under the black hair is a silvery white that makes people's eyes bright, while under the silver hair on the other side is the pitch black that seems to swallow everything.

This unique and beautiful girl, with delicate and small features, looks like a delicate porcelain doll, as if she has stepped out of a fairy tale, she is beautiful and fascinating.

If you have to point out the shortcomings, it is probably...the chest is mediocre and still in the stage of development.

"...I can only look forward to the future." After carefully looking at this strange girl, he deliberately pretended to be an ignorant child and asked:

"Beautiful big sister, who are you? Why did you come to my house?"

"Beautiful sister...your little mouth is so sweet~" The girl raised her tender lips and showed a mocking smile: "Obviously... people from the Church have come several times and you have refused Outside the door, I will call you back even if I break in, now that I have come here in person, have I suddenly become more obedient?"

"How come, I have always wanted to go to the Church, but I am not ready yet. Everyone in the territory still needs me, but everyone praises me as a good boy?"

"Since you are a good boy, sister wants you to come with me, you won't refuse, will you?"

"My sister said so, of course I - also refused!"
