Liszt did not know that he already had a nephew. He knew that Loria Golden Ears of Wheat was due, but he did not notice that the due date had already passed.
After the banquet, he once again went to the seaside villa and finally saw A Qi.
"Big brother!"
A Qi had already learned from Parker that Liszt had returned. She was not surprised, but rather very happy. However, she was not the kind of girl who would act coquettishly, so her smile was very reserved. Ever since she had immersed herself in the world of magic and truth, she had become a lot quieter.
The knowledge that was as vast as the ocean always made her forget to return. Perhaps the turmoil of this world was extraordinarily lively in the eyes of ordinary people, but in her eyes, it was only superficial and superficial.
Except for Liszt.
She would often think of Liszt's smile: "Big brother looks really good when he smiles."
At this moment, Liszt just opened his arms, and A Qi threw herself into his embrace. She immediately smelled the strong scent of alcohol, but also the familiar scent that made her feel at ease.
"A Qi, how have you been for the past month?"
"They're all good … It's just that the magic plants are growing very slowly. Druid magic can't make them grow fast, and there's no progress in the transformation spell … Leo's temper has also become worse. He doesn't like the fish that A Qi catches for him. He wants to eat beef, but A Qi can't get him any beef."
"It's fine, I'll deal with Leo." Liszt curled up a strand of A Qi's beautiful azure hair and sniffed it. There was a faint fragrance. "I heard from Parker that you and Lolth have been looking for sprite worms recently?"
"Yes, A Qi recently made some new discoveries in her research of magic. She wants to carefully understand the birth of sprites, but after searching many seas, she still couldn't find any gestating sprite worms … Oh, that's right, big brother, A Qi found a new sprite worm on the way to the dodo island a week ago."
"Really? Have you contracted it?"
"No, A Qi is waiting for big brother to contract it."
"Just in time to go to the dodo island tomorrow and contract this sprite worm in passing." After chatting with A Qi for a while, Liszt took out two magic books and handed them to her. "This one, 'The Nature and Development of Blood Magic', was written by my new vampire follower, and this one, 'The Summary of Great Sorcerers', was jointly written by three great sorcerers. Take it for your reference."
"Ah, vampires?"
"You'll understand after reading this book." Liszt did not explain much as everything was contained in the blood magic book. He took out a beautiful amber and said, "Aren't you studying the birth of sprites? You can have this sprite worm amber. You can slowly study it."
The Sprite Worm Amber was dug out from the Flower Town's rocky beach. Apart from being a bit of inspiration for Kris Truth's promotion to a Great Wizard, it did not have any other use.
Therefore, he gave it to A Qi to study and see if she could find any new discoveries.
After A Qi accepted the Sprite Worm Amber, Liszt handed her a hand-drawn map of the ruins: "This map is a new map drawn by three great sorcerers based on a broken map. It seems to point to an unknown race living in the sea. The civilization of this race has already declined, leaving only some ruins."
"A race of the sea?"
"I suspect that it might be a race of sirens."
"But A Qi is also a siren. However, A Qi is a spirit of the sea. She has been living in a shell since she was born, living alone in the sea. Although she has sensed the existence of other sirens several times, A Qi doesn't seem to want to communicate with them. Sirens shouldn't have a civilization, right? "
"What you said makes sense, but I can't think of any other intelligent race living in the sea." Liszt shook his head.
It was mentioned in the Knight novels and magic books that he had read.
The intelligent creatures that existed in the sea, besides sirens, were mermaids. Sometimes he wondered if sirens and mermaids were actually the same kind of creature, but were mistaken for two different creatures. After all, when humans saw sirens or mermaids in the sea, they should not be able to distinguish the details.
However, these speculations were not important.
Liszt smiled: "The three Great Wizards have already determined the basic area of the relic. When we have time to explore it together, we will know what this unknown race is and what good things it left behind."
"Yeah."
"Then, you should rest early."
"Big brother, are you going back?"
"Yeah, I'm going back." Liszt stood up, looked at the petite A Qi again, and could not help but sigh with emotion, "I really want A Qi to grow up faster."
A blush seemed to flash across A Qi's face, but it was fleeting. She also sighed with emotion in a soft voice: "A Qi also wants to grow up faster."
… …
Early the next morning, Liszt directly took A Qi to the dodo island.
Along the way, they found a sprite worm. It was a familiar sprite worm – a seaweed sprite worm. A Qi had also contracted a seaweed sprite worm before. However, the territory lacked manpower. Just planting and harvesting giant algae took up a large number of fishermen. They didn't even breed kelp, let alone seaweed.
It could only be put aside for the time being.
When a new batch of serfs arrived, a large number of fishermen would be trained to carry out breeding operations along the coastline.
Coastline breeding and shallow water fishing were projects that the territory vigorously developed. Eventually, it would transition to offshore breeding and distant fishing, fully exploiting the value of the sea.
"But, why do I no longer feel excited about contracting a sprite worm?" Riding the seven-colored whale Lolth on the seabed, Liszt was aware of his tranquility.
From hearing about sprite worms to contracting a sprite worm.
He had never felt excited. It seemed that ever since he seized the nine lesser sprites from the expansion order, the discovery of wild sprite worms was no longer an important matter. A wave of plunder in war was equivalent to several years of income from farming in the territory. It would indeed have a great impact.
"Every year, the Grand Duchy of Sapphire's expansion order attracts a large number of Knight participants. Sure enough, there is a reason for it."
Even he, who was blessed by the power of fate and could pick up sprite worms at any time, had a great desire for plunder in war, let alone the barren Knight. Plundering a Knight could eat for several years at a time. Why not go and plunder? Just in case the Knight Glory favored him, he might become an aristocrat.
"To put it bluntly, I am used to eating big fish and meat, so I have no interest in small vegetables …"
It was already afternoon by the time they arrived at the Dodo Island.
A Qi basically fed once every five days, waiting on the shore at a fixed time. Now was not the time to eat. However, Liszt didn't care. He climbed the crater and shouted at the sulfur-smelling crater: "Leo, get up and eat beef!"
After a few greetings.
The tumbling magma in the crater suddenly exploded. Flames rose into the air and condensed into a fire dragon with red and black scales. It was the little fire dragon Leo.
"Roar!"
Leo circled in the sky before swooping down and landing in front of Liszt.
Its body was clearly bigger than before. When it landed, it squinted at Liszt and breathed out hot flames from its nostrils.
Its demeanor and expression gave Liszt the feeling that it was looking down on him.
Liszt's complexion sank and he responded in a calm tone: "What's wrong, Leo, don't you recognize me? Or do you not want to eat beef? "
The word 'beef' made Leo stare blankly.
