During the days when Ma Wen was away, the order in the White River Valley continued to operate.
In fact, although he had experienced such a long and difficult journey, for the people in the refuge, he had only left for four days.
When Ma Wen arrived at the Wizard Tower at the edge of River Beach City, Madeline was the first to come out to greet him.
The Succubus City Lord was very surprised that Ma Wen had only left for such a short time.
However, she did not seem to find it strange that he had brought back a girl.
Because it was late at night, Ma Wen did not wake up Anna and the others who were already asleep. Instead, he returned to the White River Valley on the magic carpet accompanied by Madeline.
Along the way, Isabelle was silent. She had changed a lot, and Madeline was no longer the same Madeline as before. The two of them did not say a word.
Ma Wen only asked about what happened after he left, and Madeline could be considered to have fulfilled her duty and told everything in an orderly manner.
Because of the foundation laid by Daniela, the entire White River Valley refuge was in a good state of operation, including River Beach City, the valley, and the newly established Sword Port.
With the guarantee of the Dark Guardians, Ma Wen's new order was strictly implemented. Everyone in the White River Valley did not waste their talents. They either armed themselves and began to join the hunting teams. Every day, they began to hunt some small monsters around the refuge at a suitable time to reduce the pressure on the refuge.
As for the refugees who were not strong enough, they also began to take the initiative to participate in the new training camp.
Ma Wen gave the instructors a very high remuneration – twice the contribution points of ordinary soldiers every week, which made them work hard when training the soldiers. In four days, the first training camp had been completed one-third of the way. Many young men who had the foundation of a militia already had the most basic combat ability.
Ma Wen did not expect them to become any kind of experts. As long as they could cooperate with the team and kill some of the monsters around the refuge, it would be fine.
At the same time, he also knew that these people would grow much faster in the process of hunting than in peacetime.
This showed that although they did not have the Element Extraction System, under the pressure of crisis, potential was often easier to exchange.
…
The White River Valley had never had to worry about high-end combat power. What Ma Wen needed now was to strengthen the construction of grassroots forces as soon as possible, including the selection of militia and hunting teams from refugees, as well as the construction of the Knights. As for the latter, Ma Wen had previously decided to train and select the Knights from Riverbeach City.
After all, the City Defense Team of Riverbeach City had a better foundation in this aspect. After proper training and training, they would become the core strength of the White River Valley Fallout Shelter.
As for Sword Harbor, it was still in its infancy.
Many fishermen gathered here and started building small fishing boats.
Because the fusion rate of the Chaos Mana and the ocean was relatively slow, the sea was still calm for the time being. In the past few days, some people had begun to try fishing, which was good news.
No matter what, this group of people did not sit around and wait for death under his protection, nor did they lose their fighting spirit. They had regained their yearning and love for life. This was the kind of people Ma Wen was willing to protect.
…
In terms of manpower, that was about it.
Then there was food and weapons. The latter was solved to a certain extent because Ma Wen had gone to Steel City.
They reached an agreement with the soldiers of Moregan's Heart, and the soldiers were willing to sell weapons to the White River Valley at a fair price.
However, they proposed to barter, and basically, food was the main source of supplies.
Ma Wen had previously instructed them not to use force to force these upright soldiers. Hence, under the efforts of Medeline and Lola, the two sides carried out a few transactions. However, because the White River Valley had a large shortage of food, the weapons that could be exchanged were far from enough.
Seeing that the population of the White River Valley was increasing, if they could not provide enough weapons, then these people would be trained to be unarmed, and it would be difficult for them to pose a threat.
This was something that Ma Wen had not thought of before heading to the Forest of Supremacy.
"Looks like it's time to make a trip to the Pusen Plane."
Ma Wen secretly made up his mind.
As for food, he had already prepared a backup plan.
There was a lot of food stored in the twelve golden oxen, but it did not solve the fundamental problem.
The new season's crops had already begun to be planted. The White River Valley's area was vast, and it was located along the river's banks. By autumn, they might be able to welcome a bumper harvest. But before that, they still had to live on.
So the only way was to buy from the Pusen Plane.
Ma Wen's experience in the Pusen Plane basically let him know that it was a plane that produced a lot of food. If there was no pressure from the Shadow Prince, they could live a very prosperous life.
The current owner of the Pusen Plane was also a good friend of Ma Wen. Her brother, Prince Aragon, was in the Sword Port and could break through to the Legendary realm at any time. The only troublesome thing was that with Ma Wen's current strength, there was no way to enter the Pusen Plane!
The Pusen Plane was a secondary plane, and the highest level was 18. Ma Wen was now at 22, so he would be rejected by the will of the Pusen Plane.
He thought about it, and if there were no accidents, he could only send someone else.
But if it was someone else, he was worried that it would mess things up. It wasn't that Ma Wen didn't trust others. After all, this was a cross-plane transaction that involved too many factors. If he didn't do it himself, it was really not reassuring.
Not only that, but there seemed to be some movement in the Dead Hills in the west.
A few days ago, according to the report of the scouts in the northern Gem Bay, there seemed to be traces of dwarves in the port there.
Also, in the days when he was not there, the adventurer camp expanded further, and the group of adventurers found a strange thing in the south …
One thing happened one after another. Even though Madeline's eloquence was excellent, explaining everything clearly, Marvin still felt like his head was about to explode.
When he was not there, some of these affairs were handled by Anna.
But the more important matters were generally only dealt with by Ma Wen. As the days piled up, there was a lot of official business left for Ma Wen.
"It really isn't so easy to be a lord. It's only been a few days, and there are so many things. "
Riding the magic carpet back to the sky above the castle, Ma Wen couldn't help but rub his temples.
Medeline revealed a mischievous smile. "I wonder how Master is going to resolve these matters?"
Ma Wen said seriously, "Things obviously have to be resolved one by one."
"The most important thing right now is to let me have a good sleep."
After saying that, he didn't pay attention to Medeline's surprised expression, jumped off the magic carpet, and walked into the castle with Isabelle.
He randomly woke up a maid and had her clean up a room for Isabelle.
Ma Wen returned to the city lord's room by himself.
Lying on the soft blanket, a wave of exhaustion surged over him.
After a long period of adventuring outside, his nerves were in a highly tense state.
Only by returning to his own refuge could he relax.
The radiance of the Order Fire Seed made him feel comfortable, and when he thought of the Justice Eye and Dark Guardian constantly protecting this land, he felt a wave of relief.
Ma Wen was actually not a very secure person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have done everything so meticulously.
In this chaotic world, every night was so thrilling.
The experience in the Scarlet Wilderness gave him a great deal of pressure.
It was time to have a good sleep.
His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally, they slowly closed.
So much so that he didn't notice that the moment he closed his eyes, a barefooted woman appeared in his bedroom.
Her skin was white, and between the index and ring fingers of her right hand, there was a feather.
"Have a good rest."
"You deserve a sweet dream. After all, it's too tiring to support a refuge alone."
Annabelle softly murmured.
Ma Wen, who was still frowning in his sleep, suddenly relaxed.
He fell into a deep sleep.
This sleep felt like thousands of years had passed.
When he woke up from the darkness, his ears were filled with noisy curses!
"Whisper Necklace with Glimmer Vision + 10, on sale!"
"[Underground Granary] Expert Instance Dungeon is recruiting! Assassin Rangers don't want it, healer who can walk around the pillar! "
"Bring a newcomer, 5000 credits 1 to 5, you can also help with advancement quests!"
Ma Wen only felt that his vision was blurred.
Where is this place?
