Hathaway was secretly delighted. Although she often studied all kinds of knowledge, she was not stupid. She felt pressure from Suhlen, as well as from Kris and Alex.
Although she was very outstanding, neither the succubus Chris nor Alex were below her in the slightest. Although she did not want to monopolize him, she did not want to lower her position in Suhlen's heart.
"Do you like it?"
Hathaway lifted her finger and brushed her hair behind her ear.
"I like it very much!" Suhlen exclaimed. "I felt that it was even more powerful than Kris's Seduction Spell."
As Suhlen spoke, he sat down next to Hathaway and hugged her in his arms in an unusually domineering manner. His other hand skillfully grabbed one of her legs and played with it. It was smooth, soft, and bouncy.
A blush appeared on Hathaway's beautiful face, and her expression was a little shy. But soon she changed into a more comfortable position on Suren's body and lay down.
"By the way, I have some questions about some of the knowledge in this book. Can you explain it to me?" Hathaway asked as she picked up the book "Magic Tattoo Techniques" from the chair.
Suhlen sniffed the faint fragrance at the tip of his nose and rubbed his hands back and forth. He said casually, "What do you not understand? Tell me about it."
Hathaway's body was slightly hot. Her thin silk dress transferred the heat to Suhlen's body. The two of them started to explain the information, but Suhlen's mind was soon elsewhere. After explaining for a while, Suhlen snatched the book from Hathaway's hands and tossed it aside.
"We'll talk about this later. We have more important things to do now." After saying that, he picked up the bashful Hathaway and brought her to the lounge. Soon after, a sobbing voice could be heard.
.....
Time passed slowly.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. The ice and snow on the northern wasteland had melted. Green sprouts began to grow on the ground. The animals and monsters that had survived the cold winter had come out to look for food. Northern Town City had begun its spring plowing.
Suhlen had been learning all kinds of knowledge about wizards for the past three months. After studying seriously, Suhlen realized that there were too many things to learn.
Right now, he was reading the book list that Hathaway had prepared for him. It was also the book that Suhlen had made him a 5-year apprentice and a 10-year arcana apprentice. Although he was already an intermediate wizard, he was not born as an orthodox wizard. If he wanted to go further on the path of becoming a wizard, he needed to have a solid foundation. Therefore, he had been doing some tutoring this winter.
After studying the knowledge of wizards, Suhlen finally understood why there were so many nerds among the wizards. Those wizards spent almost all of their time learning all kinds of knowledge and doing all kinds of experiments. This was especially true for the academies. The number of such wizards was as high as 80%.
He also understood why those liches would do the conversion ritual. From Suhlen's point of view, giving up physical pleasure, giving up the pleasure of eating good food, giving up the pleasure of dopamine, and devoting all of their attention to magic. Living in the wizard tower for decades was no different than being in jail. No, it was even worse than being in jail. Even if they were in jail, they could find their friends to solve the problem. They could even do it with men. Liches, on the other hand, were just a pile of bones.
This kind of immortality was not fun at all. It was even torture. But why would anyone want to do this? Now he understood that those liches were basically nerds in the academies.
There were many types of sorcerers. The most popular ones were the Evocation, Defense, Curses, Necromancy, and so on. There were also divisions based on inheritance, combat sorcerers, and academy sorcerers.
Battle wizards rarely participated in the research of knowledge. They were more proficient in fighting and had tyrannical strength. Academies, on the other hand, were not good at fighting. However, as time passed and the academies grasped more and more knowledge, this kind of perception would quickly decrease.
In every era, the most powerful adepts were usually from the academies. One of the reasons why liches were powerful was because they had lived for a long time. Another reason was that most liches were converted from academies.
Basically, every liches was very rich. They had enough time to make all kinds of excellent and powerful magic tools. Many of the powerful magic tools in the world were made by liches.
Suhlen also realized that most of the academies were straight men. Some were even steely men. Suhlen found a lot of such things in some of the diary manuscripts. In the eyes of those wizards, women were very troublesome creatures.
They would moan for no reason, pull you to look at the shooting stars when you were looking at the stars, and then make a solemn wish. Make a wish to a shooting star? Wasn't the wishing spell more convenient? They would also make a mess of your experiment. They would spray all kinds of perfume and strange substances on your body, and then affect the accuracy of your experiment.
When you were meditating, they would use all kinds of unrealistic so-called romantic ideas to disturb your will. They liked to take up a lot of your time to do some completely meaningless things, such as going shopping, watching some moaning for no reason, and participating in hypocritical banquets that deliberately flattered you.
Therefore, many academies would directly summon Succubi when they had physiological needs. Compared to those human women, Succubi were simple and easy to use. As long as you paid a little price, you could make those Succubi serve you with all kinds of superb skills. They were much better than those human women. Also, Succubi would not waste your time. They did not have all kinds of messy thoughts. It was convenient and fast to call.
Of course, other than Succubi, there were also some other foreign creatures, but the price to pay was different.
After reading these comments, Suhlen couldn't help but admire these people. Fortunately, although Hathaway was also from the academies, she was not an extreme academies wizard.
During these three months, Suhlen, Hathaway, Alex, Lorraine, and Andre all became wizard teachers. They took turns to teach those wizard apprentices.
Luckily, there were not many classes, only about once a week. Sometimes, Suhlen would also go to classes, such as alchemy. Alchemy was a very important subject, and Suhlen could only be considered a beginner. Andre had the most classes. He had six classes a week.
Most of the time, Suhlen would also go to the classroom to listen to classes. With the end of winter, Suhlen's learning of wizardry came to an end for the time being.
Although there were no trade caravans in the Northern Town during winter, the construction of the city had been progressing steadily. The roads in the city were all repaired in these three months. The outer city of the Northern Town City was now paved with stone and gravel. The roads in the city were all hardened. Even if it rained, the roads would not become muddy.
Other than the roads, the drainage system in the Northern Town City was also completed. The drainage system in the outer city was also connected. The sewage in the city could be directly discharged, so there was no need to worry about waterlogging in the city when it rained.
All kinds of basic facilities were basically completed. Other than some areas that were still under construction, most of the areas in the city were completed.
After the construction of the Northern Town City was completed, Suhlen entered the countdown to the founding of the Northern Town City. The ice and snow melted, and the roads were smooth again. The trade caravans in the Northern Town City began their journey again. However, this time, other than transporting goods, they also had another job, which was to send messages to the nobles and countries that were on good terms with the Northern Town City.
The Northern Town City was going to establish a duchy. Suhlen thought about the name of the duchy for a long time and finally decided on it. It was going to be called the Northern Wind Duchy.
In the Suhlen system interface, the Northern Town City had already surpassed the threshold to establish a duchy. As a matter of fact, the requirements to establish a duchy were not high. The population of a hundred thousand, the territory of twenty square kilometers, at least three cities, an army, prosperity, and the number of buildings were all met in the city interface.
Other than agriculture, the fastest growing industry in the Northern Town City was animal husbandry. They had been eating fish for a long time, so they could not wait to eat beef and mutton.
The two rivers outside the Northern Town City were rich in fish resources, especially when the sturgeon migrated every winter. By then, the Red Sand River and the White Water River would have a great harvest. Countless sturgeon migrating from the ocean would fill up the entire river.
Sparkling water could be seen everywhere on the surface of the river. The sturgeon migrated from March to May every year. After the cold winter, the hungry animals and the outlanders in the wilderness would catch a lot of these fish.
The Northern Town City's fishing technology was much better than these animals and outlanders. Every time this season, there would be a great harvest. These migrating fish would return from the ocean and cross thousands of miles to the upper reaches of the river to lay their eggs. At this time, not only was the meat of the fish juicy, but there were also a lot of fish roe.
Last year, the Northern Town City did not prepare anything. They only made a lot of dried salted fish and did not make any caviar. This year, it was the migration season again. Suhlen planned to try making caviar.
It was not difficult to make caviar. This kind of food only needed to be marinated with some salt. Of course, Suhlen was only half-baked. The important task of making caviar was still left to the halfling Frodo. Halflings had an unexpected talent in cooking. They were very sensitive to food. After listening to Suhlen's simple explanation, they began to try it.
The soldiers in the Northern Town City had been eating fish for half a year. After a year, the number of cattle and mutton in the Northern Town City could finally be supplied.
Food like dried fish couldn't be wasted either. Su Lun began to provide a large amount of food to civilians, refugees, and slaves. At the very least, they no longer had to rely on fish soup. Even kobolds and goblins could eat a few pieces of fish meat.
