It takes a while to collect experimental equipment. A Qi did not conduct theoretical research, but mainly prepared these experimental materials.
It was expected to take a week to prepare.
During this period, A Qi went to the maelstrom three times and helped explore the surrounding archipelagos. Eventually, she found seven large islands within a week, with Black Horse Island as the standard.
However, the largest one was the one discovered before, the size of Coral Island.
In addition, there were many small islands and coral reefs scattered around.
This archipelago obviously could not be used to establish a country. Liszt named it the second archipelago. It could only be used as a transit supply point, which disappointed him. However, it was still very important to discover the ancient legendary teleportation magic array, so the value of the second archipelago was still very high.
Spreading out the nautical map, Liszt once again studied the map hand-drawn by A Qi.
800 kilometers south of Black Horse Island were three islands, one, two, and three, all smaller than Black Horse Island.
1200 kilometers southeast of the three islands was Dragon Turtle Island.
2500 kilometers south of the three islands was the first archipelago, all of which were smaller than Black Horse Island.
400 kilometers south of the first archipelago was the island inhabited by the Light Green Gem Dragon. It was newly named Midway Island and was about the size of Coral Island.
500 kilometers south of Midway Island was the second archipelago, seven of which were larger than Black Horse Island. The largest was close to Coral Island and was named Whirlpool Island.
From Black Horse Island directly to the second archipelago, there was a distance of about 4,000 kilometers.
The maelstrom was located 23 kilometers south of Whirlpool Island, so the location of the magic laboratory was located on a beach on Whirlpool Island. In order to study this maelstrom, Liszt even planned to build a small town on it, named Whirlpool Town.
Then he would build a wizard tower and place the magic laboratory in the wizard tower.
"It is best to build small towns on all the islands along the way that can be anchored and supplied. Anyway, the more serfs we buy, the less trouble we have to migrate to reclaim the land … As long as the serfs in the supply town can support themselves, I don't need them to pay taxes."
Usually, the sea trade of sea salt, white paper, and glass was a big business. Every year, there would be several opening orders, which were like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, and they would have to put real money into sacks.
Therefore, Liszt didn't care about the serfs' taxes. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to destroy the current social system, he really intended to eliminate all agricultural taxes. Of course, he didn't have to rely on taxes to eat, but other nobles still had to live by squeezing serfs, including his father. The Tulip family also needed to squeeze serfs.
"Let's build a small town on one of the three islands – Mangrove Town (Nami once managed the mangrove forest here). Let's build a small town on the Crescent Island of the first island – Crescent Town. Let's build a small town on the middle island – Greenlight Town. Let's build a small town on the whirlpool island – That's it!"
He added four towns to the map. This was the next step of his plan.
However, he thought of a problem that he had not paid attention to before. "I have been asking the exploration fleet to search for the islands, but it seems that I have forgotten to measure the distance between these islands and the mainland coastline … It should still be in the coastal area of the Eagle Kingdom, but most of the coastline should not have been developed yet."
The living areas of humans on the legendary continent were mostly concentrated in open plains and freshwater areas where large rivers flowed.
There were not many people in the mountains, virgin forests, and seaside.
"When A Qi has time, I should let her set off from the second island and explore the mainland coastline to see the situation of the land there. Maybe in the future, the second island can be developed, and we can directly raid the Eagle Kingdom from here and seize the resources. "
At least he could explore the mainland from this direction, and the wild virgin forests were rich and undeveloped treasures for him.
After marking the map, Liszt walked to the balcony.
Looking at the distant sky, he was just about to recite a poem, but a chirping sound interrupted his thoughts. It was the three fire dragon birds, Goldie, Little Red, and Little Purple. They were circling around Ainphent's worm stalk, the phoenix parasol tree. After leaving the volcano, Ainphent finally planted the phoenix parasol tree near the Thorn Castle.
The little fire dragon Leo would often sleep beside the phoenix parasol tree, and Ainphent would crazily touch Leo's scales and indulge in self-indulgence.
Although this was a phenomenon of big elves evolving, Liszt still felt strange.
He always felt that Ainphent had a heavier taste than the big pea elf Ash who liked rope art.
Suddenly.
In the distance, another big elf flew over. It had a light green elite appearance, and there was a small sapling on its head with a red fruit on the sapling. This big elf stopped quietly in front of Liszt and made a clear and melodious voice, "Chirp, Liszt, is A Qi in the lab?"
"Yes, Nami. Go find her yourself."
"Thank you, Liszt. Chirp." Nami flew into the castle from the balcony and went to play with A Qi.
Just a few days ago, Nami finally cheered up from her depression and quickly grew bigger, successfully evolving into a mangrove big elf.
She became the fifth big elf in the territory after the giant kelp big elf Parker, the pea big elf Ash, the phoenix parasol big elf Ainphent, and the thorn big elf Ella.
The five big elves surrounded Liszt and won countless honors for him.
However, the response was much smaller. When Liszt's big elves were mentioned, all the subjects and nobles took it for granted. "His Highness Liszt is a Dragon Knight. Isn't it normal to have a few big elves? If the Fire Lord has a dragon elf, we can have a good chat."
In fact, this was very unusual.
But from the big nobles such as the Oxtail Marquis to the small street vendors, they all felt that it was normal.
It had to be said that the light of the Dragon Knight identity was so strong that Liszt couldn't make the headlines if he didn't do some dragon-slaying.
"Wow!"
As soon as Nami flew into the aisle, she saw Ella, a big elf, patrolling the aisle with her hands on her hips.
"Chirp, hello, Ella."
Ella glanced at Nami arrogantly and didn't want to pay attention to her.
Nami magically took out a small bag of purple jade powder, which was Ella's favorite kind of jade powder. "Chirp, Ella, this is for you."
Ella wanted to remain arrogant, but looking at the jade powder, she couldn't resist her inner desire. She took the jade powder, sniffed it, and hung it on her waist. When she looked at Nami again, she nodded gently. "I like purple jade powder, remember."
"Chirp, Nami remembers."
"Well, give me purple jade powder next time."
"Chirp."
"Wow!" For the sake of the purple jade powder, Ella reluctantly responded to Nami with a few words, then continued to put her hands on her waist and patrolled her "territory".
