Annie left the Ancestral Spirit Association's headquarters very quickly. The people of the Ancestral Spirit Association got busy according to what was said on the scroll.
This busy time lasts for a month.
…
One month later.
There is a forest dozens of miles away from the headquarters of the Ancestral Spirit Society, nearly a hundred meters deep underground.
Here, a vast underground space has been forcibly opened up with extraordinary power. Many wizard apprentices and wizards are busy using earth spells to strengthen every corner of this space to prevent collapse due to earthquakes or other reasons.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
The sound of footsteps sounded, and Annie stepped forward, looking around with a serious and serious look. Once she found something wrong, she immediately pointed it out unceremoniously.
The leader of the Ancestral Spirit Society, Barry, was by his side. Hearing the problems pointed out by Annie, he quickly informed his subordinates and ordered them to make corrections as soon as possible. His attitude was much lower than when they first met.
It seems that Barry at this time is like a construction team from Party B, accompanying Party A's owner Anne to inspect the construction site.
In fact, it's pretty much the same.
"The pillar just now was obviously too thin and did not meet the specifications. It must be thickened. Otherwise, if it cannot withstand the pressure on the top and collapses, at least half of it will be destroyed." Annie said aloud as she walked.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to make it thicker and add an auxiliary column in a moment to prevent accidents." Barry quickly gave a rectification plan.
"Yes." Annie nodded with satisfaction, walked to the center of the underground space, and stopped.
Looking up, you can see that there is no roof and no soil above this place. A few meters above the head, there is nothing. Everything has been hollowed out, showing a straight upward column.
It looks a bit like a chimney.
However, normal chimneys stand on the ground, but this chimney is buried underground. It is too large and very strange.
"How's it going, Miss Anne, is the handling here OK?" Barry glanced at Anne and said, "These were all dug out bit by bit in strict accordance with the drawings you sent later."
"Yes, yes." Annie responded, "Very qualified."
"That's good." Barry breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought of something, his eyes flashed and he asked, "By the way, Miss Anne, can I ask, Sir Richard asked our ancestors to build such a weird place?" What is the purpose of the underground space
In this place, the warehouse is not like a warehouse, and the shelter is not like a shelter. It seems to be of no use at all. By the way, it’s not the drawing you gave me before. Is there something wrong with it? "
After hearing the words, Anne raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Barry with a slight displeasure, and said in a cold voice: "Why do you care so much! Your Excellency Richard asked you to build it, so you can just build it seriously. In this matter, at most I’m asking you to do your part without any danger, aren’t you happy?”
"No, no, I'm just a little curious." Barry said.
"Stop your curiosity. You will know sooner or later what you should know. If you don't know, I won't tell you if I ask. If you are not convinced, you can ask Mr. Richard." Anne said very rudely .
Barry's expression froze slightly, and then he forced out a smile: "Okay, okay, then I won't ask."
"That's best. Okay, let's just check here today. Generally speaking, I'm quite satisfied with you. I hope you can keep it up in the future." Annie waved her hand and said, "It's not as good as the first half. The second half is cutting corners.”
"Absolutely not." Barry said seriously.
"I hope." Annie said, "I have other things to do, so I'll leave first."
After finishing speaking, Annie said hello and left as simply as before.
Barry stayed where he was, watching Annie leave, couldn't help but shrugged, and then turned to look to the side.
In the corner, a lean Moses walked over, looked at Barry and asked, "How are you doing? Did you find out anything?"
"No." Barry shook his head in disappointment and exhaled, "The other party was very strict and didn't reveal anything."
"Is that so..." Moses nodded, thoughtfully, and said quietly for a moment, "Maybe... the girl who just left doesn't know why she asked us to build this place."
"She doesn't know either? Really?" Barry was doubtful.
Moses' eyes revealed the wisdom brought by the years, and he said slowly: "The girl just now is very young, arrogant, and has good strength. I said I could beat you before, but it was a joke. It's just that, she is strong, but My heart is still not mature enough.
If she really knew something, there was no way she wouldn't reveal it at all. Even if she doesn't want to, she will show it indirectly when she speaks or does things. Now, she doesn't have this expression at all, and can only say that she doesn't know either.
From this aspect, two things can be seen: First, the girl who just left is not yet the absolute confidant of that person. Second, the reason why the person asked us to build this place is either not worth mentioning, or... it is more exaggerated than we imagined, so it is kept secret. "
Barry nodded slightly, then raised his eyebrows and asked: "Uncle Moses, do you think the person who asked us to build this place was just to test us? In other words, he couldn't find anything he asked us to do. We don’t want to keep us idle, so we just let us be busy as we please. Otherwise, I really can’t figure out what the point of building such a big chimney underground is.”
"Maybe, maybe not." Moses said slowly, but he was very open-minded. "It doesn't make any difference to us. We did it, and the other person is satisfied, which is good. This is better than asking us to kill It is simple and safe to deal with who and what target.
If it really doesn't make any sense for the other party to build this thing, then that's fine, just build it slowly. From what the girl just left, it seems that this is not the only one. After the construction is completed, there will be several others. In this way, we don’t have to worry about risky things happening to us in the next one or two years.
In addition, having said that, although we used nearly half of the manpower of the Ancestral Spirit Society to build this place, it was not free. A few days ago, didn't that girl bring several blood spell scrolls, which she said were analyzed and improved personally? "
"Yes, three in total." Barry nodded quickly after hearing this.
"Have you asked anyone to test it? How is the effect?" Moses asked with concern.
"It's all been tested, and the effect is very good, no different from normal spells." Barry said.
"That's good." Moses nodded, his eyes bright, "If we can receive three new blood spells every month, after all, this deal will be beneficial to our ancestors.
So, try to maintain the current state as much as possible. Maybe getting in touch with that person this time is really a good thing and an opportunity for our Ancestral Spirit Association - an opportunity to restore its previous strength. "
Barry nodded.
"Okay, go back and let them stay here and continue to work. You and I go back to the station to have a look. There are still many things to deal with." Moses said, "To restore strength, it is not as simple as one sentence. There are many places. Everyone is busy, even busier than here.”
"Yes, Uncle Moses." Barry responded and followed Moses out of the scene.
