After walking around in the huge underground maze and enjoying the exotic landscape, the group of visitors left with satisfaction. Oh, there was one left behind. She was sleeping on a pile of gold coins and talking in her sleep.
Sui Xiong curiously went over and heard the dragon language echoing in the back of her throat. He used the ability of Language Proficiency and realized that she was murmuring, "Gold coins, gold coins, bedding, bedding … sleep …"
"This girl is hopeless!" Sui Xiong shook his head and used a wizardry boundary to expand the range of Xian's Firebird. This was to prevent the surrounding monsters from approaching and disturbing her sleep. This way, the people who came to explore the maze could detect her presence early and would not accidentally bump into her mouth.
Although the Xian had never eaten a human before, who could say for sure when it was in a daze from sleep? Even if she didn't eat people, what if she was woken up by the noise and got angry and spat out her Petrifying Dragon Breath?
With Xian's age and strength, the strength of her Petrifying Dragon Breath was not very strong. Basically, a qualified adventurer should be able to withstand it. But the people who came to explore the maze were just a group of ordinary people!
After setting up the wizardry boundary, Sui Xiong thought for a while and put a sign on the edge of the wizardry boundary. He wrote the words "No Trespassing, Fierce Dogs Inside" and flew away with satisfaction.
As for the problem of whether the explorers could understand simplified Chinese characters, Sui Xiong directly ignored it.
The underground maze was almost completed. Next was the passage to the surface and the construction of the playground.
Rode wanted to ask the pioneers to help, but Sui Xiong refused his suggestion.
"This is very interesting," he said. "I tell you, construction … is really interesting!"
Rode really did not understand what was so interesting about being a laborer. But on second thought, His Majesty the Void Mask was able to build such a huge underground labyrinth in high spirits. Perhaps he liked to play with bricks and mud.
So he understood.
From the playground on the surface to the underground maze, Sui Xiong had arranged three passages.
One was the main entrance. It was wide and large, connected to the ground by an extremely tall and long staircase. The stairs spiraled and stretched for hundreds of meters. Every ten meters, there was a hall. He planned to arrange various auxiliary facilities in the future, such as a pub, a restaurant, a training ground, a lounge, a library, and so on.
Although there would also be such facilities above ground, the style of the aboveground and underground was completely different. It could be used to create an atmosphere of "foreign culture".
The second passage was a huge, deep well, with a spiral staircase that could fit three people side by side. There was a pillar in the middle that was used for quick sliding. This was prepared for those who wanted to challenge the difficulty. If they wanted to go to the area where they might encounter graupel, they had to go down this way.
The last passage was a very long incline, which extended to a great distance. It was not usually used and was only used as a backup at critical moments.
Of course, in addition to these normal passageways, there were also two teleportation rooms. The huge fixed teleportation formation could send the user to the teleportation point in the rest area of the maze, and it could also teleport them back from there.
Not only that, when they encountered a great danger, the magic set on them in advance would take effect and immediately send them back to the teleportation room to avoid accidents.
To ensure safety, there was a small temple next to the teleportation room that could provide first aid services. If any unlucky person died in the maze because of a myocardial infarction or a cerebral hemorrhage, the temple could also provide resurrection services for him.
Of course, this would cost money.
It took Sui a lot of time to arrange the three passages and the teleportation room. It was not until midsummer that he had time to start building the amusement park.
At this time, the believers of the Church of the Void Mask, under the escort of Gerrard, had arrived at the town that was scheduled to be built into a holy land.
Because the negative energy from the underground had been cut off and the ground had been purified by Sui Xiong's magic, this forest did not feel gloomy at all. The dark brown soil was covered with thick weeds. No matter whether it was tall trees or short weeds, they all showed the green that should not have appeared in the Ashes Forest. There was also a clear river flowing through this forest. The river did not emit the unpleasant smell of rust that was usually polluted. Instead, it contained a fragrant smell of grass.
Many birds and beasts also came here. They keenly found this pure land, built their nests here, and multiplied and lived. Every morning, everyone woke up to the sound of birds, and at night, they slept with deer.
Even if Sui Xiong did not specifically issue a hunting ban, the pioneers were not willing to hurt these lovely creatures. They affectionately called these birds and beasts "neighbors", and they also petitioned Ms. Liv, the chief of the pioneers, to ask if the layout of the city could be adjusted to leave enough living space for these birds and beasts.
Liv, who had arrived at the Ashes Forest from Garth City through the teleportation formation, from the captain of the patrol team to the chief of the pioneers, was very happy to approve this request.
She had thought that she would come to a barren place with rough adventurers and dirty laborers, and be busy fighting with all kinds of dangerous monsters all day long. She did not expect that it was actually a forest with green mountains and clear waters.
Oh, "clear waters" was right, but "green mountains" seemed to be wrong. The nearest mountain from here was also hundreds of miles away. The sky was gray, the ground was black, and even the leaves of the trees were covered with a layer of black air.
She had long heard of the notoriety of the Ashes Forest, even though she was far away on the other side of the continent. But she could not figure out what method His Majesty Void Mask had used to open up such a pure land in this terrible black forest.
But she did not run to the amusement park construction site to ask Sui Xiong, who was busy playing the Minecraft version of the alien world all day long. Instead, she hid this question in her heart and concentrated on her work.
His Majesty Void Mask had sent a messenger to help them when they were in the most difficult time. And her teacher was also a believer of His Majesty — it was said that he was also a chief priest. It was so strange, why was he not the leader of the knights but the chief priest? Her teacher did not look like a clergyman at all …
Taking all these factors into consideration, she felt that this god could be trusted, and she should complete the task that he had given her.
This was not only a repayment to His Majesty Void Mask, but also a repayment to her teacher. It was also a great opportunity to realize the value of her life and not disgrace her father's lifelong learning!
She remembered that her father would occasionally sigh in private, lamenting that he had learned a lot of skills to govern the country and manage the people, but he had no chance to practice them. Whenever he taught his daughter alone, he would sigh from time to time.
Now it was time to practice what her father had taught her, to see if they were right, and to prove whether her father had the ability to be a good lord.
Of course, she absolutely believed in her father!
It turned out that the knowledge that Knight Parne had taught his daughter was indeed very useful. Even though this time she had to manage more people than the previous Garth patrol team, and the quality was uneven, she quickly got into the right state and maintained the order of the entire territory well.
Every morning, she would take a few soldiers to patrol the entire territory, listen to the opinions of the pioneers, and collect the problems found. After lunch, she would start to solve the problems one by one. In the evening, she would go to Frost, who was in charge of logistics, to check the supplies and ensure the stable supply of the entire territory.
It was her suggestion to let Frost take care of the warehouse. At that time, Frost seemed very dissatisfied, and even showed his real dragon body to threaten her. But Liv burst out with amazing courage, and she did not back down in the face of the dragon's sharp teeth. In the end, Frost did not dare to really bite her to death, and had to reluctantly become the warehouse manager.
But this position was indeed very suitable for him. No matter who it was, this sullen young man had an expression of "you owe me money, hurry up and pay me back". In addition, he exuded a faint dragon power, so the pioneers did not dare to play any tricks with him at all. Even the most cunning old foxes did not dare to try to take advantage of the dragon.
They did not have the strong nerves of Ms. Liv, who dared to stare at an angry dragon. It was better not to court death!
Madame Teague was in charge of the agricultural management. Together with a Druid named Nan, who had already said that he would only work for a short time, she helped the farmers to reclaim the land and sow crops with elven magic and natural divine power.
Because the soil here had been well purified, they did not plant the "golden vines" that grew slowly and tasted terrible. Instead, they planted some tubers and grains, as well as vegetables.
The soil in the Ashes Forest was very fertile, and these crops grew very well. It was midsummer, and even though the town was located in the north, the temperature was still warm. The seeds were sown in the soil, and with the help of magic, they took root and sprouted in one or two days. Only half a month later, it was thriving.
"But the winter here will be very cold," Nan said. Nan, said the Druid with the strange name, "I fear these plants will not survive the cold winter."
"Don't worry, the God who rules here can freely control the cold air. At that time, he will absorb the cold air around, and keep this area warm enough, "Madame Teague, who had already communicated with Gerrard, said. Madame Teague, who had already communicated with Gerrard and knew this information, said, "If you are interested, you can stay for a longer time and see for yourself."
Nan shook his head and said, "Although it is for a good purpose, this kind of behavior that goes against nature is still against the beliefs of us Druids. It is better for me not to stay."
He was a very stubborn person, and he did what he said. In the autumn of that year, after the harvest, he helped the farmers finish the harvest, and insisted that "the contract has been terminated", and then he left.
The autumn in the north passed quickly, and it felt like it was only a blink of an eye. The first snow had already fallen.
The winter in the Ashes Forest came early as usual …
