In the tent, Niya was wearing a veil and sitting on a chair. She looked elegant and noble, without any trace of the embarrassment she had when facing Xu Sili and Si Sheng in the morning.
The first seriously injured person was carried in.
He was also a member of the Inferno Mercenary Group.
The Inferno Mercenary Group was responsible for transporting the three-star beasts. When something happened, the Inferno Mercenary Group did not shrink back and directly stood at the forefront.
This also led to the fact that they accounted for the most seriously injured residents.
And the first person to be carried in was undoubtedly the one with the most serious injuries — —
During the battle, he was directly knocked away by the three-star beasts. The huge impact caused his internal organs to shatter, and he had been unconscious for the past few days.
Now, he was on his last breath. The medical conditions in the town were average, and he would probably die if this dragged on.
Wen Jishan was also at the side.
When he received the news from Niya, he was actually very surprised.
Although he was the Chief Governor, because of his commoner background, Niya did not like him very much.
In other words, Niya did not like many people very much.
Of course, as a member of the Royal Water Healing Division who could rescue people from the hands of the Grim Reaper, it was understandable that she was a little arrogant.
But Wen Jishan never expected that Niya would take the initiative to contact him and ask him to arrange for the wounded. She was coming to the town to treat the wounded.
Moreover, she seemed to be quite anxious.
Fortunately, the wounded were originally housed in a centralized place, so it was convenient to dispatch them.
From the moment she arrived in the town, Niya did not say much nonsense. After a few words of greeting, she quickly entered the tent and began to work.
Even though she appeared to be very arrogant and cold, Wen Jishan keenly saw — —
She seemed to be very anxious.
This could be seen from the maidservant that accompanied her.
So what was this situation? Did something happen that he did not know about?
Wen Jishan pondered, his eyes quietly watching Niya.
Even with a cloak and a veil covering her whole body, he could feel the temperament that was cultivated in a superior environment.
She wore a pair of lace gloves and gently pressed on the back of the wounded man's hand.
Everyone held their breath.
Under everyone's gaze, a gentle blue light shone from the wounded man's hand and gradually spread to his entire body.
Unfortunately, the veil on her face hid her expression. Otherwise, Wen Jishan would really like to see what kind of expression she would have at this moment.
After all, this person used to be someone who didn't even care about His Majesty. Now, he wanted to save the commoners.
Even if she was wearing gloves, this kind of direct contact would make this noble lady feel uncomfortable, right?
Therefore, her expression at this moment must be very interesting!
Wen Jishan thought mischievously as his eyes fell on the heavily injured mercenary.
He was really quite pitiful. He looked very young.
Under normal circumstances, with such serious injuries, he probably wouldn't be able to survive until the next day.
However, under his gaze, the mercenary's bloodless face recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Wen Jishan watched in silence. Once again, he was amazed by the wonders of Elementalists.
How enviable …
As he thought of this, he recalled what His Majesty had said before.
Promote the Basic Cultivation Method to the commoners …
Wen Jishan smacked his lips. Not to mention whether it could be successfully cultivated, there would definitely be a lot of people who would want to try it!
This was a business opportunity!
He wondered who His Majesty was going to assign this task to.
The Elementalist College? That group of high and mighty Elementalists, they would probably just foolishly announce it directly …
What a waste of God's gift.
Wen Jishan secretly shook his head, feeling a little distressed. Then, he couldn't help but think of the speech video that His Majesty had just sent to him.
He had to admit that this little His Majesty was really good at inspiring people.
And some of his ideas were very clever.
Things like being assigned to a local garrison was a second chance given by the Empire, the goodwill and expectations of the Empire being wasted, the garrison would send less than fifty one-star Elementalists to the frontline every year …
It was too cruel!
His heart ached when he heard it.
That was all money! He used to feel the pinch of the annual subsidies that were wasted on these people, but he couldn't do anything about it because this had always been the rule.
Breaking this rule was going against the entire Elementalist system. He was only one person and was not an Elementalist, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
And he was indeed like many people, he didn't realize that the Elementalists that were assigned to the local garrison were the Empire's hope for them to further improve, not to let them retire!
If this speech video was spread widely, it would definitely change the minds of many people and set off a wave of frenzy in the Empire.
So, under His Majesty's hint, he had already used some means to use the hands of a student to release the video on the Internet —
Although Ai XueXing didn't have the equipment to connect to the Star Network, the local network was still developing well.
Now, there was still a short time, so he needed to wait and let the bullets fly for a while. But he believed that it would definitely achieve good results in the end.
After all, that speech made too much sense!
No matter what the local garrison thought after hearing it, the people would definitely be dissatisfied. Maybe they wouldn't express it directly.
But if there was something that could trigger it, for example …
The local Elementalist system reform!
At that time, it would definitely garner public support. The number of Elementalists was still very small compared to the entire Empire.
Moreover, some Elementalists might support it themselves.
For example, the Elementalists who were fighting on the frontlines, or the academies that trained Elementalists. He believed that there would definitely be people who would support this reform.
Thinking of this, Wen Jishan beamed with joy.
He was very much looking forward to that moment!
At this time, Niya retracted her hand.
The mercenary who had been lying unconscious on the hospital bed opened his eyes at this moment and looked around in confusion.
"He's fine now. He'll be fine after a day or two of rest."
Niya said faintly, "Next."
That was too fast! It had only been five minutes, right?
A person who was about to die from serious injuries recovered immediately. As expected of the Water Healing Division that could bargain with the Grim Reaper.
Wen Jishan sighed again. Seeing that there were more people carrying him in, he didn't continue to watch.
He was very busy!
"Then, Lady Niya, I won't disturb you anymore."
Wen Jishan said with a smile and left Niya's tent.
There was a long line outside. When the first seriously injured patient who was healed walked out of the tent on his own, everyone who saw this scene cheered.
Hearing about it was one thing, seeing it with your own eyes was another —
It was really amazing. The person who was so seriously injured and was about to die walked out on his own after just a while!
Although he still looked very weak, he was really much better than when he was first carried in.
"Son, you really can be saved!"
The old woman who asked the mayor supported her son and said with tears in her eyes.
The young mercenary also recovered from the shock and disbelief. His face was full of joy and excitement.
He didn't say much. He just wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. His eyes shone with a warm light as he looked at the tent. At the same time, a strong sense of belonging to the Empire rose in his heart.
His Majesty saw them. His Majesty didn't give up on them …
At this moment, there were many people who had the same thoughts as him.
Wen Jishan saw this and his eyes flashed. In his heart, he thought a lot more highly of His Majesty.
He lifted his feet and prepared to go to Su Lin's tent to take a look.
After giving him two acres of land, he didn't care about that kid anymore. However, he just sent him a message saying that his two acres of land had a good harvest and that he could arrange for someone to harvest it tomorrow afternoon.
He thought that this kid was bragging.
Although Su Lin was also an Elementalist, he heard that this kid didn't even have half a star strength and had just transferred to the Spirit Element.
In short, he was very weak!
Now he was telling him that he had planted two acres of grain in three days? Wen Jishan didn't believe it no matter what, so he planned to see for himself.
Just as he took two steps, his communication device suddenly rang.
His incoming message notification was set to a special note, so when the sound rang, he knew that it was from His Majesty.
Wen Jishan raised his eyebrows and quickly opened the message.
Hmm?
The first batch of transfer students from the Elementalist College were coming to Mercenary Town?
They were coming tonight and he still needed to arrange their accommodation?
Wen Jishan touched his chin and felt a little excited. These people were like Su Lin, seedlings of the Spirit Element!
Although they wouldn't go to the front line, they could shine in the construction of the Empire —
After seeing the efficiency of Dean Justin and the others in building houses, Wen Jishan didn't doubt this at all.
It was really awesome!
However, how many Elementalist apprentices would there be? Although he watched the video of the speech, the students were not in it, so he didn't know how many there were.
Judging from the replies, there must be more than ten.
Wen Jishan thought for a while and sent a reply to Xu Sili.
On the other hand, Xu Sili, who was standing not far away, received the message and took a look.
Wen Jishan: Your Majesty, I understand. May I know the approximate number of students in this batch? I'll let someone arrange it.
Xu Sili tilted his head and thought for a while. Then he smiled and typed a reply.
"Guess."
Wen Jishan looked at the two words and was a little speechless. Little Majesty was a little too bored, wasn't she?
He hesitated for a while and deliberately said a higher number.
Wen Jishan: 50?
"Guess again."
Wen Jishan: Is it more or less?
"It's less."
Wen Jishan sucked in a cold breath.
In fact, he expected about 20 or 30 students. After all, this was the number of Spirit Element students in the entire Elementalist College, but …
It was actually more than double the number he deliberately said!
Was Her Majesty lying to him?
He thought for a while and carefully said a number.
Wen Jishan: Then 80?
That's three or four times! It shouldn't be more than that, right?
However …
"It's less."
It was still less?
Wen Jishan's heart was beating wildly. This was not possible, right?
He gulped and typed and deleted. After a while, he finally said another number.
Wen Jishan: 110?
Xu Sili watched him type for a long time and finally reported another number. He could not help but laugh.
After thinking for a while, he replied, "Well, it should be about that."
157. In addition to the later ones, it should not be more than 200. It should be close to a hundred and one. He was not lying.
Wen Jishan waited. When he saw Little Majesty's reply, he was stunned.
Good lord!
He heard from Old Man Justin that there were only slightly more than 3,000 people in the first batch. There were still seven or eight thousand people in the later batch.
According to the ratio of 30: 1, there should be at least two or three hundred more!
In total, there would be more than 400!
Happiness came too suddenly. Wen Jishan was stunned.
When these children grew up and became Spirit Element Elementalists, how much wealth could they create by participating in the infrastructure?
There was also the Water Healing Division …
He looked at Nia's tent. Yes, all Water Elementalists could be trained in this direction!
The Water Healing Division was the weakest in terms of combat power, but its value at the front line was very high.
This was because it could greatly reduce casualties.
In this way, the front line could clear out the Interstellar Beasts much faster. Perhaps the roads to the other main cities could be opened sooner.
According to the data he received, the nearest city, Star Catcher City, had only opened a third of the roads between the two cities.
Although the Interstellar Beasts that filled the main cities were generally one or two stars, and a few were three stars, one should not forget that the highest level Elementalist among them was only two stars.
These two and two star Interstellar Beasts were basically living in groups.
Fighting one might attract dozens or hundreds of Interstellar Beasts. Fighting one type might attract more than ten types, so it was very difficult to fight.
Wen Jishan thought about the front line and shook his head worriedly.
Just as he was thinking, his communication device vibrated again.
"Nia has issued a military order. She must heal all the injured residents in Mercenary Town within three days. Otherwise, the Chris Family will strip her of the title of Count.
"Chief Wen, do as you see fit."
Looking at this message, Wen Jishan read it back and forth twice before he finally understood.
He finally knew why Nia was in such a hurry.
It turned out that she was the same as Old Justin. She was also tricked by Her Majesty … She was influenced by Her Majesty and actually issued a military order herself.
Hiss …
Stripping her of the title of Count was almost as ruthless as Old Justin. If she could not complete it, Nia would become a sinner of the family.
At this moment, Wen Jishan was sincerely convinced by the little Her Majesty.
Perhaps he did not have the halo of the strongest person in Si Sheng, but when it came to management and the ability to drive the country to prosperity, he was much better than Si Sheng!
Like now, this hint …
Wen Jishan adjusted his glasses, his dark green eyes flashing with a shrewd light.
Three days, although it was a short time.
However, how many injured people could be healed completely depended on Nia's ability. As for how many injured people … wasn't it up to him?
An able person should do more work, and …
Wen Jishan: Your Majesty, if Master Nia can't complete it in such a short time, can you give her a little more time? After all, there are many injured people in the Mercenary Town.
Looking at Wen Jishan's reply, Xu Sili rubbed his chin.
He could clearly see that the Chief Consul had seen through his hint.
However, if he gave her a little more time, it would not be a deterrent.
He thought for a moment and began to write a reply.
Wen Jishan waited, and finally the communication device vibrated.
"The original time given to Nia was calculated from today onwards."
Wen Jishan's eyes lit up.
The word "original" was used very cleverly.
Because the day was almost over, it was equivalent to Nia needing to treat all the injured people in two and a half days.
Therefore, if she could not complete it, the time could be calculated from tomorrow onwards.
Nia would definitely be looking forward to it, and would even be grateful for Her Majesty's tolerance.
And with another day's delay, it would only take Nia five minutes to treat critically ill patients …
Wen Jishan laughed unkindly.
He seemed to see countless Ai snow coins waving at him — the treatment fee of the Royal Water Healing Division was very high.
[Wen Jishan]: Your Majesty, I understand.
Xu Sili looked at Wen Jishan's reply and nodded with satisfaction, but he was still a little worried and reminded him again, "The residents of the Mercenary Town will have to depend on Chief Consul Wen."
After replying, he put away the communication device.
He had made it so obvious, Wen Jishan was a smart person, he would definitely understand.
If he did not …
In that case, he might have to reconsider the ability of this chief consul.
Putting away the communication device, Xu Sili watched the injured people line up to enter the tents one by one, and the injured people who were being treated walk out one by one. Looking at the increasing number of messages from his die-hard fans, he felt very satisfied.
The increase in die-hard fans was an unexpected gain. His main purpose was to reduce the injury rate of the town's residents to increase the speed of the town's construction.
With Nia's desperate efficiency, he believed that within three days, the injury rate of the town's residents would be very low, or even close to zero.
This would also increase the speed of his leveling.
Xu Sili did not go far. He walked back and forth among the injured people. With Si Sheng's [Passerby's Halo], almost no one paid attention to them.
As he walked, he sifted through the new die-hard fans' messages.
None of the town's residents were Elementalists, but there were still a few who showed up in the "Elemental Inclination" category.
This meant that they could actually become Elementalists through the cultivation of the Basic Incantation.
However, many of them were already old, so it would be difficult for them to achieve anything.
For these new die-hard fans, even if they were mercenaries, the highest level they could reach was Level Five, which was half a star.
However, compared to the Elementalist College's apprentices, their half-star strength should be somewhat weaker. After all, they could not absorb or control the elements.
Just like Wen Jishan, although he had reached Level Five, he was actually just a normal person.
Xu Sili analyzed and soon had a vague idea.
Just like when he reached Level Five, he had to go to the Elementalist College for an Elementalist test to determine his development direction before he could continue to level up. Level Five was a threshold.
Although it was difficult, normal people could actually rely on their personal growth to reach Level Five. However, this level might be the limit.
Only after becoming an Elementalist would the future be more and more limitless.
In the future, when players enter the game, they should also need to go to the Elementalist College to change their class. This was very practical.
Xu Sili silently noted down this discovery.
This was very important. It could firmly bind the players to the Roland Empire in the early stages.
If the players wanted to continue leveling up, they could only rely on the Elementalist College. And now, wasn't he in charge of the Elementalist College?
Xu Sili was very excited as he thought about his future plans.
After noting down this discovery, he continued to sift through the messages of the die-hard fans. He wanted to see if there were any NPCs with special talents like Wen Jishan and Little Ash.
Unfortunately, after looking through the messages of dozens of new people, he still found nothing.
It seemed that NPCs with special talents were still very rare.
They had all kinds of special abilities and could exert great power. He must not let go of any of them.
After looking through the messages of the die-hard fans, Xu Sili set his eyes on the townsfolk.
[Inspect] required 10 Magic Points to use. He still had more than 1,000 Magic Points, so he could use it to inspect a lot of people.
Now that his Spirit had increased, Xu Sili realized that even if he did not meditate, his Magic Points would still slowly recover, just like his HP.
However, this recovery speed was very slow. He noticed that it was only 10 Magic Points per hour.
Although it was not much, it was better than nothing. This also meant that when his Spirit continued to increase, this recovery speed would continue to increase.
Xu Sili waited for the students while using Inspect on the townsfolk who were not die-hard fans. He was trying to find another NPC with special talents.
The sun gradually set in the west and slowly hung over the mountains on the horizon. The sky was rendered beautiful and charming.
However, although it was beautiful, it also meant that the sun was going to set soon.
Xu Sili glanced at the main road outside the Mercenary Town.
He still did not see the figures of the Elementalist apprentices. Naturally, there were no guardians like Li Zheyu.
Could it be that these students were really going to fail?
Although he wanted to give them a test, Xu Sili still hoped that they could complete the mission.
If they could not complete such a simple mission, what would happen to the more difficult missions in the future?
There would not be any guardians like Li Zheyu in the future.
Xu Sili stood at the entrance of the town and silently looked at the intersection of the main road. His expression was calm, but the disappointment in his eyes was getting stronger and stronger.
Finally, the sun had set, and only a few rays of light could be seen.
Wen Jishan also stood at the intersection and waited.
The video Xu Sili gave him was edited, so he did not know about the agreement between him and the students. However, when he thought about the hundred or so Elementalist seedlings that would arrive at night, he could not help but feel excited and nervous.
He did not know when they would arrive!
Finally, under the disappointed eyes of Xu Sili and the expectant eyes of Wen Jishan, the sun finally sank completely into the mountains and the sky became dark.
"Looks like it still won't work …"
Xu Sili muttered. Just as he was about to look away, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves at the end of the road.
Xu Sili was stunned.
Did they really catch up with them?
He looked as far as he could, but because of the distance and the many tents and crowds in the middle, he could not see the scene in the distance at all.
Xu Sili was too lazy to run over. He was the Emperor, how could he run over to welcome them? Naturally, he had to stand there and wait.
However, he was also very curious. How did these students manage to do it at the last moment?
Did they let the dozens of new students ride in the carriages as well?
But weren't those carriages only able to carry up to five people? Any more and their speed would be affected.
Xu Sili hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, he looked at Si Sheng and grabbed his hand.
Si Sheng, who was still looking into the distance, could not help but be stunned.
Lord God …
Took the initiative to hold his hand?
His heart suddenly beat wildly, but he heard the youth say, "Si Sheng, help me."
As he spoke, Xu Sili extended his spiritual power.
Although the range of his spiritual power had increased to ten meters, it was still not enough. Soon, it reached its limit.
Si Sheng quickly understood his intention.
He extended his powerful spiritual power and guided the youth to see the scene in the distance.
He looked at the serious expression on the youth's face, then looked at the two of them holding hands. The corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Perhaps, he would never tell Lord God that he did not need physical contact to guide his spiritual power …
