"Then, see you next time in the Imperial City!"
Saying goodbye, Nostradamus started teleporting again after Joshua and his knights left the range of the magic circle, and left the North with his students.
"Continuous large-scale teleportation of multiple people. This is the power of the Ultimate Mage. If the enemy is unprepared and leads a team of gold-level elites to raid the enemy's major cities, it will only take one day to completely destroy the opponent's lifeline. .”
Standing at the gate of the city, looking at the mages disappearing with the faint blue ripples, Joshua couldn't help but sigh: "It is precisely because of this that so many techniques for time and space gates and teleportation were developed in the previous life. Otherwise, otherwise , a bottomless war will only destroy the entire civilization."
After sighing, he turned around and saw that the large group of knights he led were now a little unsteady due to the dizziness caused by the teleportation. If these guys in armor could not support him, The war horse had probably fallen to pieces a long time ago.
Unable to help but sigh, the warrior could only declare disbandment on the spot, allowing these guys who were probably experiencing time and space teleportation for the first time in their lives to relax for a while, while he took the rune core and prepared to return to Beppu with Rin.
Winter is over and early spring is approaching. The wind has changed its direction. The warm wind rising from the forests in the south sweeps across the ice sheet and melts the snow. But how can the coldness accumulated in the earth for a whole winter be dispelled so easily? Snow water overflowed and condensed into ice, making the streets in the main city covered with layers of smooth ice. Many pedestrians walked cautiously on the bluestone avenue.
The number of pedestrians in the city gradually increased. Due to the rise in temperature, both caravans and adventurers came and went much more frequently than in winter. The dragon caravans brought a large amount of food preserved by magic, and the Northland did not produce anything. Sea salt and various fruits and vegetables come here to trade, and most of the adventurers have accepted tasks in other cities and are preparing to search for special magical beasts or ores in the Great Ajax Mountains.
This is what a northern city should look like. Joshua looked at his vibrant territory with satisfaction and couldn't help but feel a little happy about it.
"When spring officially comes, we can almost start the next step of construction."
After roughly estimating the time, he nodded and made up his mind: "No matter what, we must let the rune dwarves build a rune factory in this city, even the smallest one. It doesn't matter. My city cannot be left behind." Behind the times.”
On the side, Rin hugged the rune core that was almost as big as him and sighed lifelessly.
Soon after, the two were walking through the city center.
Many craftsmen and workers are working hard taking advantage of the good weather with no snow and sunshine. The Lord's Mansion, which was destroyed by Joshua in early winter, is almost rebuilt after a winter of scattered construction.
According to Joshua's suggestion, the Lord's Mansion, which was originally similar to a manor, has now been completely transformed into a war fortress after reconstruction. The craftsmen built a small castle with the hardest granite wall bricks, and even used Warcraft bone powder as cement in the process. Combined materials, in this case, you can continue to draw magic circles on the wall in the future to make it more indestructible.
This is of course not that Joshua lacks security, but that such a residence suits his aesthetics. If he were to live in an extremely luxurious mansion made of marble and white rock, he would still feel uncomfortable.
With pedestrians watching in fear and awe, Joshua and Rin returned to Beppu.
Several maids were cleaning the hall. When these working people noticed that their lord had returned, they immediately put down their work and bowed respectfully.
Joshua didn't like others to be so respectful to him, but now was not the time to correct the other person's reaction against the times and his own fear aura. He asked, "How is Yingying?"
One of the leading, older maids stood in the front and replied softly: "Miss Ying, she is still asleep in the room as usual... But sir, Miss Ying has not been eating. Is she really okay?"
What does Shenji eat... sword oil and whetstone
Shaking his head, it was difficult to explain the characteristics of the divine machine to these ordinary people. Joshua took off the coat on his body, and then walked up to the second floor with Rin.
Rin walked up the stairs step by step holding the rune core that was as big as herself, with a lifeless look on her face.
Entering the room, the layout has not changed, except that there is an extra glowing stone lamp next to the bedside table, and on the bed, Hotaru is still sleeping.
The silver-haired Miss Shenji had a peaceful look on her face, but her sleeping posture was very serious and motionless. As long as she was covered with a quilt, it seemed that nothing would change in a few years.
However, Joshua keenly discovered that Yingying's situation this time was very different from before!
In the past, Hotaru was in a coma rather than sleeping, but now... this little guy is really sleeping!
"Wake up quickly!"
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Joshua patted Yingying's face neatly and without any pity, and even pinched it: "You have been asleep for almost two months. If this continues, even the divine machine will Rusty!"
"it hurts!"
She woke up just as quickly. After crying out in pain, Yingying looked confused, her big green eyes filled with misty water: "Who am I... Where is this..."
Before she could ask the third question, Miss Shenji immediately turned her head to look at the bed when she noticed a very familiar aura.
Then, she saw Joshua, Rin, and Number 3 projected from the rune core.
The silver-haired girl's computing core crashed in an instant.
"Hey, this..." Not knowing what to say at all, Yingying raised her slender arms, pointed tremblingly at the location of Rin and No. 3, and said in a trembling voice: "What's going on? Why is my brother here too..."
"Sister, you have slept for too long."
On the side, Rin, who was still holding the rune core, poked his face out from behind the core. He sighed first, and then said with a smile: "Because I lacked weapons to take advantage of, the master woke me up... I have to say that the master is really honest. It’s very strong, it can actually carry the load of two divine machines, and it can still fight without any pressure, we are really lucky.”
Of course I know that the master is super powerful! Yingying said loudly in her heart that it didn't matter if her brother appeared. Anyway, she couldn't bear such a terrifying frequency of fighting and killing by herself, but that...
With thoughts swirling in her mind, she turned to look at Projection No. 3, who was looking at herself with a calm expression.
Long blue hair, black wings, it doesn't matter... her body is the core of the rune in Rin's hand? Well, this purple-blue crystallized metal is so beautiful... Wait, who is this charming guy
