Chapter 156 Next Mission
"Dear Archbishop McIntosh, I write to you with great excitement, mainly to report on the development of the model Lyminus Ishir, and hope to get the support of the sect…"
Fitch indeed replaced the deceased old man Kipling and became the presiding priest of the Ice Peak Fortress, which was not beyond everyone's expectations. The entire Ice Peak Fortress accepted this calmly, and even the rhythm of life had not changed. In the past, they received orders from the Holy Code, carried out patrols and eliminated monsters, but now they have been replaced by Minas Ishir.
So things became interesting: Feiqi managed the Ice Peak Fortress as the presiding priest, and he also worked as the chief consultant of the Minas Ishir Territory. Part of the consultant's work was responsible for handling related matters of the Ice Peak Fortress, so Feiqi managed himself, and the Ice Peak Fortress became his "territory" in disguise.
A castle with a divine rune array for protection, and a castle with a dangerous and indestructible terrain. As long as Fitch does not make serious mistakes, such as blasphemy of the goddess or seriously violates the doctrine, he will be a lifelong preacher. In fact, there is no precedent for such a young preacher, but he can be summoned by the goddess to the Kingdom of God, and arrested the internal traitor and the fallen Qitanna, and the Holy Acta Sect had to make an exception.
"As mentioned above, everything will go smoothly in the development of the territory, and the relationship between the elves and humans will also improve in the near future, and harmony and prosperity are just around the corner. But at the same time, the situation in the Ice Peak Fortress is not optimistic, the lack of maintenance and insufficient manpower has been going on for many years. I pray day and night, and I sincerely hope that the Holy Words can help..."
After the Ice Peak Fortress belonged to Minas Ishir, it simultaneously moved from the Holy Body Cult to the Holy Word Cult. After all, the daily affairs of the Model Leader were managed by the Holy Word. Unless the two countries next door, the Principality of Aria and Feinberg, one or two of them went crazy together and decided to attack the Cult and the Model Leader, then the Holy Body would take over the armed forces of the Model Leader again and then work with the judges of the Sacred Heart to defend against foreign enemies.
"The Ice Peak Fortress will raise bricks and wood for self-raised stones and wood, and will also serve Minas Ishir, to get rewards in the way of eliminating evil monsters and fill in the funds spent on maintenance. We hope that the sect can provide the spell materials needed to maintain the rune array, including holy water, sacred ink and some spell equipment (see the attached table)....”
Budget for superiors is a necessary skill for every software developer. A passionate and passionate request can greatly improve the success rate.
"Always asking for materials from the sect is not a long-term solution, so Minas Ishir hopes to have his own magic item manufacturing workshop so that he can share some of the production pressure. Please consider the formula, craftsmanship and craftsman's as appropriate..."
Feiqi estimated that this requirement was difficult to pass because there was no precedent in history, and the church has always been rigid. The production of spell items, especially the spell ink used to draw rune arrays, special additives used to add to metal solutions to enhance the passing of mana, etc., are these things that have never been produced at the level of the sect. Can it be placed in a small territory?
But, regardless of whether you can approve it or not, write it first, what if it is done? "Anyway, you will definitely not approve it if you don't write it. It's not tiring to write a few more sentences, right?"
Shani nodded, frowned and looked at Feiqi's words that were bitten by a snake and mouse, and then carefully copied them in a beautiful and neat font. She has always been wondering why Feiqi's rune text is so good, but the common term... cannot be said to be unsightly, it can only be said to be at the level of a beginner.
"Sir, is it wrong to write the thirty liters of spell ink here? So much spell ink is enough to last several years."
"Yes, there are so many, I'm not wrong." Feiqi glanced at it and said, "I probably need to use about twenty liters this time. Even if I save it, I need fifteen liters, so I have to write thirty liters."
Thirty liters of ink are stored in a relatively large container, about three barrels, and so many magic inks will basically be used to draw space channel magic arrays, connecting the mortal world, hell and the abyss, and establishing three-way channels. Therefore, Feiqi gave it a simple and easy-to-understand name: the three barrel magic array.
This is the largest magic array created by Feiqi himself so far. Its scale has even exceeded the defensive magic array of Ice Peak Fortress, which is close to the Divine View Great Prophecy. Moreover, Great Prophecy focuses on coverage, and most of the functions are repeated long-distance communication and mana transmission. The three-barrel magic array does not need to consider these, but instead focuses on protection, traps and stability as much as possible. Higher rune density and multi-level structure are the characteristics of the three-barrel magic array.
That's right, Feiqi built a magic array rune in the three-dimensional direction for the first time, which was the experience gained from solving the Goddess's magic seal puzzle. People in this world are used to recording information on flat paper, so the spread of rune knowledge must eventually fall onto the plane. They have no space to make drawing tools, and have not invented the "three views", so they have not started the exploration of rune stacking applications.
Stacking runes in a direction perpendicular to the plane can greatly improve the rune density, and even use it to build a spell execution structure such as buses, star shapes or multi-cycle rings to cope with a variety of situations. However, this stacking also greatly increases the difficulty of processing rune arrays. After all, runes must be attached to a certain substance in the form of ink, and this substance—or base—must be made strictly in three-dimensional methods. Feiqi missed the era of three-dimensional printing, and multi-axis machine tools also surpassed the current artifacts. However, he only had "hands" on hand, and both engraving and molding methods require exquisite craftsmanship as the basis. Feiqi is very self-aware and does not have such good craftsmanship, so he will only choose stacked runes when it is absolutely necessary or very necessary.
"Only after the processing level is improved, stacking runes can fully exert their strength. Alas, the difficulty of large-scale integration does not lie in design, but in manufacturing capabilities!"
How could it be faster if you use unskilled handcraft to make key components of the magic circle? Feiqi also tried to find a carpenter in Collingwood Town to help, but in addition to making various wooden boards, the carpenter is also good at making wheels, and the products are very single. People in the town mainly rely on doing the furniture themselves, or give up...
Several of the elves can carve their weapons, and their shields are made by themselves. However, the elves' learning ability is indeed worse than that of humans. Feiqi told him three views for a long time, and the elves still said they could not understand it. It is not that they are stupid, but that the elves have a bad habit. When understanding new knowledge, they always have to connect with what they have learned, just like finding an ancestor for new knowledge. Only by finding an ancestor and then following the eight generations can they think that the new knowledge is correct and have a way to learn. For the new concept that suddenly pops up, the elves lack a pragmatic thinking of "just use it, no matter whether it is theoretically correct or not."
In the end, Feiqi still built various materials for the three barrel magic circle by himself, so that the speed would not be fast. Fortunately, Minas Ishir's overall rhythm was not fast, and he didn't have so many urgent things to deal with immediately. It would be good to live a more plain life. At least he could polish his works carefully, at least he could continue to study magic, and at least he could work hard to improve his mana.
Everything happened in an orderly manner. The second batch of potatoes were planted, including twelve elve elve farmers, and they began to plant them on the semi-waste land. Diderit also had her own cleverness. She found the druids who loved nature among the elves and persuaded them to settle down. Eighty percent of the land was used to grow potatoes, and the remaining 20% could see if the plants on the elves could be transplanted.
"Then what do they eat?" Feichi had some questions.
"I have stored so many potatoes, so I have to eat them, right? The potato cakes are delicious now and have gradually been accepted." Diderit handed a golden hard cake to Fitch: "Bo, try it. This thing is quite storage-resistant and tastes good. I have already started to let the elf find a way to make it into the cookies."
Feiqi was also a little confused about how Edmund made potato dough into hard cakes. Anyway, he was a magical person, so it was not surprising that he could accomplish magical things. The hard cake was very strong and tough, with a bit like a thick pot cake, and the taste was a little sweet. However, the most magical function of this hard cake was that it could be turned into semi-hard mashed potatoes after soaking in hot water. It could be scooped with a spoon, and its fullness ability was greatly improved. With some cooking leaves and minced meat, it was already the best portable meal that could be eaten in the wild. Not only Dideret, but even Feiqi was optimistic about its future.
The concept of "food processing plant" is very novel, but the business model is not difficult to understand. In this era, the world was inconvenient, so the carrying and storage of food was always a big problem. If Feiqi wanted to build a storage-resistant food workshop with potato cakes as the core, there might be cans and other things in the future. Whether it was kept for his own territory or sold as a commodity to Aria and Feinberg, it should still be very marketable. Moreover, Minas Ishir is at the deepest point of the model territory, and he is not afraid that Aria and Feinberg will have any evil intentions. Neither of them has the strength or enough stupidity to attack the church territory, so Feiqi does not have to worry that they will force themselves and are not allowed to supply goods to the other side of the war.
This is still a paper plan. If you really want to implement it, you have to wait for Minas Ishir's own food problem to be solved. Don't forget that you may also have to take on the task of moving the elves here, and agriculture must continue to develop.
"With the second season of potato cakes, you can start to start the construction of water conservancy in winter." Feich suggested to Didlit, "For anyone who comes to participate in the dredging of waterways, potato cakes are distributed from the territory, and the same is true for building roads in the future. We are not able to earn gold and silver coins now, but food is money, and the money that can continue to grow from the land is essentially the same. Digging waterways, building reservoirs, and even trying to build lakes and raise fish. This is very good. There is so much snow in the sunset mountain range in winter, and it turns into a flood and goes straight into the sea in the beginning of spring. It's so wasteful."
"How should I repair it? Do you come up with a plan?"
"Lord, I am the chief consultant, not the chief knowledge of all things. I will definitely do things I know, such as magic and purifying potatoes. I can't force myself to do things I don't know, right? Find people from the people and those elves. It takes a hundred years from birth to adulthood. Maybe you will know some things about building rivers in such a long life."
"So your main job or your idea?"
"I can't steal your job, right? Lord Lord." Feiqi always finds a way to convince others at this time. "By the way, did that group of thieves catch it? When Tron passed by last week, he said that you were in trouble, is your opponent very difficult?"
"Yes, it's very difficult, they're still out of trouble. We found their traces several times, and once even injured one of them, but still failed to catch them. Speaking of which, the last time you called me back was the closest we were to the target." Diderit frowned and slowly shook his head: "How could there be such a cunning enemy? Our only result is that they have no chance to commit crimes recently, but it's always a troublesome to not catch them."
"If this is the case, things will become strange." Feiqi scratched his head: "Those guys are so powerful, why should they stay in Minas Ishir? Is there anything here that they can't bear to leave? Ordinary thieves won't do this, and the opponents we face are likely to have other identities."
"You mean to destroy the Rebirth Sect?"
"There is such a possibility, I think you can ask the Sacred Heart Judge for help. If the monster hunter, demon hunter and judge, plus the paladin, the elf ranger and the goddess priest, these people can't deal with those people together, then we must start asking the angel to come."
"Not. If you ask the angel to come to solve the problem, then Minas Ishir will be embarrassing this time." Diderit thought for a while: "No, this matter cannot be delayed. If you ask for help, please ask for help. Anyway, the letter of request for support is not the first one. Have you not replied to the request for instructions sent to Archbishop McIntosh?"
"I guess he is also having a headache now. After all, I want not a small number of things. Diderit, you should also know that McIntosh attaches great importance to the prophecies of elves, so he has been trying to get elves to the mainland. So although he is the archbishop of the ecclesiastical master, he is also under pressure from the church, especially from the human side. So, give him more time!"
"I understand. Although his ears are not sharp, his heart is indeed elf. Of course, it is the goddess first."
Feich looked at Diderit and hesitated whether to tell her the truth behind Bishop Nathaniel's death. Since Archbishop McIntosh's confession ceremony actually failed, and the black crystal walls blocked the message to the heavens, Feich was completely unrestricted by the provision of the confession of the atonement of the priest who needed to keep the secret, and even if he said it, he would not be punished by the goddess, but he could not predict Diderit's next reaction.
As a Paladin, she would definitely not engage in assassination and revenge, but she could face McIntosh, such as letting the elves in the territory return to Elf Island and completely break McIntosh's elf immigration plan. What kind of chain reaction will happen next is difficult to predict, but it will definitely have an impact on Feich's development. Speaking of which, Paladins are often more difficult to predict than killers...
"Lord, no matter what, Archbishop McIntosh must have wanted to help. If he makes any mistakes or does something wrong, let's be more patient and give him a chance to correct it. It sounds interesting to educate and train the Archbishop!"
"More interesting than educating and cultivating a lord?" Didrit chuckled, then looked at Feich's embarrassed expression and said, "Fech, do you think you are particularly smart, so you like to use your twenties to surpass the 200-year-old elves to prove that you are smart?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Feiqi neither admitted nor denied it, and avoided this problem smoothly. It has to be said that it is quite interesting to educate and cultivate female elfs who are about ten times older than themselves. This kind of thing is absolutely impossible to happen on earth. Seeing others accept their new knowledge, and then step by step improve the world around them, so that everyone's lives will develop in a good direction, people can get great satisfaction in this process.
"Okay, you continue to enjoy the Chief Consultant soon. I still have a lot to do. Now I ask for help and catch thieves, and I have to dig rivers in winter... But one thing you are right, there is no need to build castles this year. The development of our territory, at least in the field, is far better than other territories. Next year's inspection and evaluation should have a good result..."
"I still need to inspect and evaluate the exam? It's really troublesome." Feiqi sighed, but he could only accept this trouble.
"If the assessment score is high, the Educational Speaker will receive a reward, probably it is an appropriation or weapon? I can't guess it now."
What else can it be? It is probably to tell you where there is a mine in the territory... Feiqi has long seen the answer to the mystery - or the reward - clearly, so he doesn't care much about the ratings.
Maybe he couldn't resist the verbal talk. Just as he was talking about the rating reward, the half-dwarf Mom, who had been out for a long time, has returned. His heavy footsteps sounded from the stairs, and his anxiety could be heard from a distance. Feiqi turned his fingers and opened the door in advance. Mom rushed in.
