Chapter 60 Heading to Red Lion City
In front of the bird's eye mirror curtain.
Wuming held a handful of Roa fruit in his hand, and when he squeezed it, the Roa fruit in his hand exploded, exploding into a ball of white velvet cotton-like substance, which curled and turned brown when heated.
Wuming was making such things by hand, stuffing them into the gaps in the face protector one by one, eating them with all his heart.
Patch kept staring at the curtain, observing the changes in the picture.
Patch stared at it for a long time, then withdrew his gaze and subconsciously grabbed the bursting Roja fruit in Wuming's hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
Patch chewed it a few times, felt something was wrong, and spat it out again: "Bah, bah, bah, what the hell, I thought it was popcorn."
"Roa fruit." Wuming replied.
"Isn't that what livestock eat?"
"It changes when you heat it up."
"no the same?"
"After heating, it can explode into cotton. The demi-humans use this to twist cotton thread to make clothes."
Patch rolled his eyes:
"Isn't that what animals eat?"
"I didn't say it was edible." Wuming said, stuffing a few more cotton balls into his mouth, "But this thing is suitable for me to eat."
"Why are you acting like a donkey?" Patch said.
"It's not a donkey, it's a stove." Wuming corrected him, "Don't you want to continue reading?"
"It's over." Patch glanced at the curtain.
"Oh? What's the result?" Wuming asked.
"There is good news and bad news, which one should you listen to first?"
"Stop doing this, just tell me directly."
Patch said: "Greek won."
Wuming clicked his tongue: "We really won, then we will be in trouble."
"Our trouble is gone. Although Greg won, judging from the battle situation, his troops suffered heavy losses." Patch said, "I'm afraid he won't be able to worry about us anymore in a short time."
Wuming was happy after hearing the good news.
He said cheerfully: "Now he should worry about us thinking about him."
The two came to this conclusion and left with peace of mind.
The threat of Greg is gone, and they only need to take care of the Suzu Hunters, so they can rest easy and continue doing business.
"I have an idea about the bell hunter," Wu Minglu said. "It is inefficient for all of us to be restrained by a bell hunter. In fact, we can establish an early warning system. As long as he approaches, we can prepare in advance.
"
"How to warn?" Patch asked.
"Inspired by the bird's-eye view mirror, we can also build a bird's-eye view mirror in the Airei Church. With Se Lian's stargazing skills and my light magic, it should not be difficult to create." Wuming took out a map and explained to Patch,
"The area near Airei Church is fairly flat. We will burn all the weeds nearby and smooth out the depressions and bumps. This way, if the bell hunters come, they can be found from a long distance."
Wuming drew a large circle on the map, covering a forest and part of Yakir Lake.
"Leave this whole area to the ground. Once the Suzu Hunter is discovered, we will have enough time to defend ourselves."
"What a big deal." Patch said, "I just have one question, do you have money?"
"I have people," Wuming said. "Let the miners dig into the cliffs and let the demi-humans burn the woods. Hurry up."
"What about their original jobs?" Patch asked. "Without them mining ores and managing logistics, many services in the store would have to be shut down."
Wuming thought for a moment and came up with a good idea:
"Tell them that this is a difficult time for the round table, and they need to make sacrifices and work overtime."
The corner of Patch's mouth twitched: "What a good idea."
"Of course it's a good idea." Wuming said confidently, "If the employees don't work overtime, how will the store develop? This is to expand the territory for the glory of the new round table, and future generations will remember their achievements. Let's build a round table later and put them on it.
Pickaxe and sewing needle, what an honor.”
"Then... give them a salary increase?" Patch asked.
Wuming asked: "If the bird's-eye mirror is ready, how many people will we need to guard the bird's-eye mirror?"
"Using the field of view of the bird's-eye view mirror, we must monitor at least twenty people day and night." Patch said, "These people are like Kaidan mercenaries. They need to devote all their energy to defense and cannot work."
"Then there will be no salary increase." Wuming said, "The church is everyone's home, and we work hard for this family. Talking about money is so tacky."
Patch looked sideways:
"You've never been so stingy before."
"What can I do? The expenses at Selian Tops are too high." Wuming curled his lips, "Now I can get 20% of the profit from the store."
"Now that the business scale is so much bigger, 20% is a lot," Patch said, "You can take less."
"How can that be done? I won't lose money to death?" Wuming covered his money bag, "Don't think I don't need money."
"I've never seen you use money," Patch said. "You've already eaten the livestock's food, so where else can you use it?"
Wuming did not answer, and laughed twice darkly:
"You don't want to know, and you'd better pray you never find out—what's the sound?"
While the two were talking, they had already driven back to the church, and Wuming suddenly heard a wailing sound, vague and weak.
Wuming listened carefully and searched carefully, and found that the sound came from the cross in front of the church.
There have always been some crescent-shaped crosses in front of Aire Church, and I heard that they were modeled after the images of Marika and Rune.
There are mummies hanging on the cross, which have been exposed to wind and sun, but the curse of immortality prevents them from returning to the tree and they cannot die. When they have developed enough strength, they will wail.
"I thought they were corpses, but they're not dead yet." Wuming looked at the mummies on the carriage, "Who are they? What did they do?"
"How do I know?" Patch said, "Maybe he used to open a shop in Airey Church."
"Aren't all businessmen buried in the ground? It turns out there are some hanging on trees."
Wuming dismounted and bowed respectfully to the senior on the cross.
When Wuming announced in the church that the crisis from Stone City was over and announced his plan against the bell hunters, the Ai Lei church cheered.
Indeed, as Wuming said, many of the employees here were picked up by Wuming. They do not have their own homes and can only regard this place as their home.
No one is dissatisfied with the nameless overtime requirement.
Wuming immediately dragged Se Lian out of the corner.
When dragging it out, Se Lian was still holding the Falling Star Beast's jaw horns and refused to let go.
"Don't hinder my research on the Star Child!" Se Lian protested by stepping on Wuming's helmet.
"Do you understand sustainable development? If you want to understand each other, you have to give each other some space." Wuming grabbed Se Lian's waist and pushed outwards. The illusory figure of Se Lian's spiritual version was so solid in Wuming's hands that he couldn't get rid of it.
Se Lian finally gave in and got off the Falling Star Beast, holding her hands on her chest. Her dissatisfaction could be felt through the hood.
"What's the matter again? Didn't you just ask me?" Se Lian said.
Wuming looked at the sky. It had been a long time since the last time she asked Se Lian about the falling star beast and she sent him to the bird's-eye view mirror. Se Lian didn't feel the passage of time at all.
"I want to make a bird's-eye telescope, and I need your knowledge of stargazing." Wuming said.
"It's so troublesome to do that." Se Lian didn't want to help.
"This is also good for you. When I get good at it, I will make your future stargazing equipment." Wuming began to give Se Lian a pat on the back, "It's not like Latarn will never die. Sooner or later, the stars will start to flow. Sooner or later, you will
Requires stargazing.”
"Okay..." Se Lian reluctantly stared at the Falling Star Beast for a while, then went to make a bird's-eye view mirror with Wuming.
Wuming chose the Guidingjiang Plateau next to the church as the area to place the bird's-eye mirror.
"You first have to make a ball." Se Lian said, "It represents the stars and can enhance our inspiration. The more standard the shape, the better the effect, and the bigger the shape, the better.
"How to do it?" Wuming asked.
"You are the blacksmith, right?" Se Lian said.
Wuming was a little embarrassed: "I can only use a hammer, but you said the more standard the better, isn't this hard to do?"
"If you want to pursue magic, some long-term work is necessary." Se Lian said, "You do it first. If nothing else, I will continue to study the Star Child."
"Wait a minute, I'll call Patch." Wuming said.
When Wuming used the bird's-eye mirror before, he discovered that Patch had more clever ideas than him, so he decided to try his luck with Patch again.
