When Dikao returned home, he recalled that Langdon had signed a contract and his subsequent plans were basically stable.

Now that Glenni has his own support, the conditions are definitely not that easy to negotiate in the face of Dylanta's suppression, the friction between them will eventually need to be resolved through one or even multiple wars.

But I also have to consider burying a nail in Glenni.

Thinking of this, Dikao tapped the table with his fingers, raised his head to Alisa next to him and said, "Go and call Nikla!"

"Abide by the order!"

Alisa agreed and walked out of the study room. After ten minutes, she brought Nickla over.

Since coming here, Nikla has become much lazy, so he has become a little fatter than when he first came.

The originally strong muscles are covered with a layer of fat, and the neatly arranged abdominal muscles are about to disappear.

Because they are originally white hair, people tend to look older as soon as they get fat, so they look much older.

"My King, are you looking for me?" Nickla asked.

"It's my responsibility to speak of it..." Dikao shook his head with guilt, "Give it a task to you."

"You said."

"You go to Sitas," said Dikao, "disguised as a hunter, and then pass on the information there at any time."

"But..." Nickla hesitated a little, "I'm fine to hunt, but I can't pass on information or something."

"It's okay, I'll ask Fax to arrange a necromancer with you," said Dikao. "Just disguise yourself as two brothers and lurk there, as long as you don't get discovered by the emperor."

"As for order!" Nikla nodded and agreed.

………………………………………

Hessler, inside the basement.

Selena was watching Netiya tinkering with the piano beside her.

Now it no longer looks like it just got back, but has been completely dismantled into various parts and laid all over the floor.

"Are you still sure to put it back?" Selena asked.

"What do you think?" Nitia asked back and began to carve various magic circles on the parts.

As an alchemist, this is what Niteya is best at.

While drawing the magic circle, he asked, "What did you say just now that he wanted me to help make?"

"Oh, a resident certificate," Selena said with a lollipop in her mouth, "It is a palm-sized card that can store some personal information, and some special instruments can read this information."

“How much do you want?”

"Depending on the population," Selena replied, "He wants to do a census system and send everyone under his control a piece of this thing."

"..." Nitia stopped the movement in her hand, "This... is a bit troublesome. The population of the Castlevania is nearly 100,000. Even if it is simplified in a card to only carve one magic circle, it will take 100,000 times to draw it! This is not a problem that can be solved by manpower!"

"Then I'll talk to him again..."

Selena talked about this question when chatting with Dikao that night.

However, this was something Dikao had thought of for a long time. He told Selena that he could just make a sample first and solve problems such as materials.

Dikao knew from the beginning that this repetitive and tedious work could not be done by Nydia alone.

There are two ways to solve this problem.

The first is to summon a large number of skeleton soldiers to replace the repeated and tedious work later. The problem is that skeleton soldiers have very low IQ and there is no way to do technical work.

This is also the reason why Dikao did not ask the skeleton soldiers to build roads, because this kind of work is not as simple as it seems and requires technology.

The IQ of an ordinary skeleton soldier cannot do such a job.

So you can pass it here, so the second way is to make a machine tool.

As long as you put the raw materials in here and then keep making finished products from the other side, this is a very simple thing.

But in this way, two new problems arise.

First, it is indeed okay to use machine tools to make cards, but instead of using people to portray magic arrays?

Second, with my physical level of only high school level, can I make something like a machine tool?

For Dikao, although he understands the general principle of this thing, he is just roughly and has no idea about the detailed things.

But... I am a demon king at least, I can do experiments slowly.

What's more, there is a bug like Netiya now, I believe she can understand what she means.

However, Dikao still didn't say it immediately and planned to experiment first.

So after getting off the line, Dikao asked Alisa to find a wooden stick for herself and asked her to call Rudolph.

...

When Rudolph followed Alyssa to the study, he saw Dikao holding a wooden stick in his hand and using his fingernails to cut out two grooves on it.

Large pieces of wood chips fell at Dikao's feet, and two wide grooves on the stick gradually went down in a spiral shape, forming a unique wooden stick.

"My King..." Rudolph didn't know what Dekao asked him to come over.

"Rudolph, can you make steel like this?" Dikao threw the stick in his hand at him, "and then make an instrument that can make it spin at high speed."

Electric drill! This is what Dikao wants to try.

Although this world cannot use lightning as a daily necessity, it doesn’t matter, this world has magic!

Magic can also be used as energy.

Rudolph took it and looked carefully and said, "Okay, first make the steel into this shape, then burn it red and twist it into this, and finally..."

"Okay, don't talk to me about those craftsmanship issues, I don't understand either." Dikao waved his hand and gestured, "I'll ask if you can make another instrument that makes it spin at high speed? It's probably that big!"

"This...you can do it if you have a design drawing..." Rudolph lowered his head embarrassedly.

Although the dwarf is good at forging, it is indeed an almost impossible thing to let him invent something he has never seen or even understood.

Hearing Rudolph's answer, Dikao didn't say anything, but asked him to make the drill for himself first, and then waved his hand to let him go back.

Sure enough, things were not that easy, but hope was still there. It seemed that I should go and have a good chat with Nitia.

Many things are incomprehensible when chatting with words.

…………

A few days later, Nikla, who had finished packing, set off with a necromancer assigned by Fax.

As the boss, Dikao came out to see him off in person, Nikla had no feelings, but it moved the necromancer next to him.

In this world, a boss who is willing to be close to his subordinates is so easy to harvest people's hearts.

After looking at the time, it was already the end of April, and it was time for the Demon Castle to plant rice.

For humans in this world, this is the biggest thing in the year besides the New Year, so Dikao is also preparing to take a look.

After all, many farmers were semi-mandatory to plant new rice cultivated by Enjieli this time.

Whether it can be successful depends on this wave.

Considering the grandeur of the event, Dikao decided to take all his maids to travel and take back their changing clothes.

According to the old rules, he still called the Western Guardian Gris to come and take care of her.

Now everyone knows the relationship between her and Selena, so the west side is where the mouth does not need protection, so it doesn't matter even if Gris is not there.

What I need to do this trip is not to be low-key, but to let everyone in Castlevania know that they also attach great importance to this matter.

So I can't fly over this time. To be exaggerated, Dikao left all to Alisa.

As an all-round secretary responsible for taking care of Dikao's daily life, Alisa is simply free to do these things!

Send someone to send a letter to Mihar in advance, telling him that he would bring important figures from the Castlevania to greet him this time, and the show must be sufficient.

Since the full power was handed over to Alisa, Dikao also had to follow her arrangements this time.

Alisa felt that since this was a meaningful activity, it would not be possible to go by yourself. She wanted to let Carita and Fax go with her.

Dikao expressed no objection and asked her to watch the arrangement.

In fact, Alyssa's decision was a bit bold. Once everyone was free, if someone steals the house, the consequences would be quite troublesome.

However, considering the current situation, Alisa felt that she should not be so sad, so she arranged for Carita and Fax to go with her.

After Dikao got up the next day, Alyssa entered the room with a clean windbreaker and cloak.

He served Dikao to put on his clothes, hang his cloak, and took him downstairs.

After walking out of the castle gate, Dikao was stunned for a moment.

A team of nearly 100 meters was waiting in the open space in front of the castle gate.

His dark wildebeest was in the middle of the front of the team, and behind it were five skeleton horses summoned by the necromancer.

Four of them were standing on both sides, and one of them was empty, which should be Alyssa's.

Going back, Carita and Fax were each standing next to their horses, watching Dikao walking out.
To be continued...
