"Vivian!"
Soran caught the little girl who rushed over, hugged her petite body and turned around. Then he lowered his head and kissed her red cheeks. The little girl wrapped her arms around Soran's neck and hung on his body. She arched in his arms like a kitten and took a deep breath. Then she looked up at Gloria next to her and opened her arms to ask for a hug.
Vivian opened her arms and threw herself at her, "Sister Gloria! I missed you so much! "
Seeing the cute little girl, a gentle smile appeared on Gloria's face. She reached out to catch the little girl and stroked her long hair as she said in a gentle voice, "Vivian, I'm sorry. I missed you too! "
The little girl hung onto Gloria's body and buried her head in her chest, as if she was very comfortable.
After a while.
She suddenly frowned slightly and sniffed Gloria's body like a puppy, causing Gloria's expression to become a little uncomfortable. The little girl sniffed Gloria's body and muttered, "Sister Gloria has big brother's smell!"
Upon hearing Vivian's words, a bright blush appeared on Gloria's face, making her appear particularly charming and alluring.
"Oh!"
The little girl wriggled in her arms, and then moved her little nose to her full chest. She sniffed seriously at the spot near the top, and even used her little hand to pinch it lightly. She muttered to herself, "The smell is the strongest here!"
Slap!
Gloria was a little angry and slapped the little girl's butt gently. Her charming face was already red. She held Vivian and walked forward with her head down. Even her earlobes were already red. Before leaving, she gave Soran a slightly reproachful look. As for Søren, he didn't blush at all. He only looked into the distance to hide his embarrassment. Since when did Vivian's nose become so powerful? She could even tell which part of his body he liked to play with.
The little girl seemed to have understood something!
After all, she grew up in the slums and was far more mature than other children of her age. She poked her head out and looked at Soran, then looked at the blushing Gloria. She stretched out her pink little finger and scratched her face, saying mischievously, "Shy!!! … "
"Sister Gloria! Did you do something shameful with big brother?!!! … "
Slap!
Ouch!
It hurts!
The little girl pursed her lips and touched her butt that was slapped again. She didn't say anything else. But her big eyes rolled around a few times. No one knew what she was thinking.
However, her expression was one of curiosity!
After all, she was just a nine-year-old child. The little girl soon forgot about this matter. Then, she held Gloria's finger with her little white hand and led her around the camp. At the same time, her little face was still full of pride. She pulled Gloria forward and told her that the stone road was just completed the day before yesterday. She was the one who killed all the monsters nearby. The two of them walked for a while, and a fenced encampment appeared in front of them. Now, it looked like it had the size of a town.
Søren was slightly behind because he had to transport the goods. Vivian led Gloria forward and explained everything in a crisp voice.
After all, she was also involved in the construction of the camp.
At the same time.
It was very different from when Søren left. First of all, the fences were much higher than before. It was now three stories thick. It wouldn't be easily knocked down by strong beasts. At the same time, it was convenient to increase the number of arrow towers. There were currently sixteen arrow towers in the entire camp. In terms of scale, it was comparable to many medium-sized towns. The next step was to build a city wall. This was too time-consuming and costly. Søren had no plans to build a city wall at the moment. It was estimated that he might not need it for a year or two.
There was a row of guards at the east gate of the camp, but not all of them were lazy pirates. There were also drow warriors.
Gloria couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression!
Because Søren had some things to tell her, when she saw these drow warriors with cold expressions, even Gloria, who had always been calm, was slightly moved. She seemed to be a little shocked by the speed of Søren's development.
It was not easy to subdue a drow!
"Miss!"
The drow warrior, who looked quite young, bowed his head slightly to the little Vivian. At the same time, he turned his gaze to Gloria. He seemed to have seen a little bit of Gloria's strength. His expression was quite shocked. He bowed his head respectfully and said, "Welcome to the camp. Your Excellency the Witch! "
Drows were always a race that worshipped the strong.
Gloria nodded slightly, then followed Vivian into the camp. She noticed that these drows were not afraid of the sun. It seemed that they were not pure drows, but more like half-drows. Only half-drows could move so easily on the ground, and they seemed to have the blood of albino drows. She didn't know where Søren found these people. Such drows were very rare after the fall of the Dark Maiden.
There were neat square roads in the camp!
It was different from any town Gloria had seen before. As soon as she walked into the camp, she felt a strong visual impact.
It was not because of the shocking buildings.
Instead, everything here was very neat and tidy, more so than any city she had ever seen. The straight roads were divided into four areas, and the drainage canals on both sides were the same. All the houses were built in the same style. They looked very novel and tidy. She couldn't say that they were ingenious buildings, but the neat rows on both sides of the street were pleasing to the eye. With just a glance, Gloria liked this place a little more. She liked this neat and clean environment.
There was no feces on the road. Even though there were a lot of people here, there was no foul smell in the air.
Although the pirates were a little unrestrained, they obviously knew a lot of rules. When they saw Gloria, who was walking with Vivian, they all bowed slightly to show their respect. There was a blacksmith's shop in the corner of the street, and the busiest and noisiest place was the three taverns. For the pirates, it was very uncomfortable to have no wine, but there were no common fights here. Because Søren specially set up a martial arts arena, any personal grievances must be solved in the arena. Duels between conflicts between pirates also required the presence of the leaders.
Gloria saw a lot of slaves!
However, they were different from the slaves in other places. Although they were dressed in rags, they were strong. Their faces were not sallow and thin. Some even looked rosy, which meant that they had more food.
From the west gate, she could see carts of bricks and tiles being transported. There were also many areas that had been divided but had not been built yet. Many craftsmen were busy, and among them, there were even obvious oriental faces. Among the rather lazy pirates, there were some pirates with serious expressions who were responsible for patrolling. Gloria saw a trace of an army from them. Basically, in every patrol team, there were drow warriors with serious faces. Their equipment and strength were extraordinary.
Outside the south gate was a piece of land that was being reclaimed.
Groups of indigenous slaves were working in the fields. The first deep plowing required more preparation, and there were fierce-looking pirate supervisors nearby.
Quality fertilizer was needed here.
Otherwise, the harvest of the first year of reclamation would be very poor, even if the soil here was quite fertile.
Gloria silently watched everything in front of her. The more she looked, the more surprised she was because she knew how short Søren was to build all this. It could be said that if it were her, even with the help of the Witch Council, it would be impossible to reach the current scale in a short time, not to mention that there was already a vague prototype of a city here.
It was hard to imagine!
If Søren was given a period of time to develop, what kind of city could he finally build in the outer islands?!
