Chapter 80: Outsiders
Chapter 80 The Outsider
“Vomit~ Phantom Shift still feels so bad.” Owen dry-heaved, but he had to say that magic was really efficient, and he was back in the castle in a flash.
But unless it was necessary, otherwise Owen felt that it was better to ride a horse, but when he thought about traveling all the way from Green Shade Town to Wooden Cottage, and then from Wooden Cottage to the castle, it was a little hard to choose whether it was a long pain or a short pain.
But soon Owen did not think much about it, the big thing is to choose that kind of traveling mode depending on the mood.
After Garon went to familiarize himself with the castle, Owen let the Slime maid go to prepare a change of clothes, and then came to the bathroom alone.
The castle’s bathroom has long since ceased to be the humble look of the gutter plus a tub, replaced by a huge bath with gorgeous decorations, surrounded by hundreds of golden faucets inlaid with various colors of jewels perfectly demonstrating what is called luxury.
This is the Hogwarts level long special bathroom, in addition to mediate the water temperature does not have any special attributes, so the progress value required is not high, was Owen redeemed, weekdays are not less here with Dale and Maya water fight, and by the way, to create artificial waves that last for half an hour.
Soaking in the warm and comfortable bath, feeling the buoyancy of the water, Owen relaxes his body and enjoys a rare leisure.
It didn’t take much time at all for a man to bathe alone, even if he soaked until his skin was wrinkled.
Owen picked up one of the clean white fluffy bath towels piled up by the bathtub, wiped off the water stains and lay down on the bed, the Slime maid on the side skillfully tilted her head back and opened her mouth, swallowed a cup of olive oil that had long been prepared, and then skillfully climbed on top of his body, transforming into a ball of gel.
The essence of the Slime Maid is a mass of deformable gelatinous polymer, which can freely transform between solid and liquid, and at the same time produce a massage-like effect through peristalsis, and the olive oil that she drank earlier in the process will also be evenly coated onto Owen’s body, which is very convenient and comfortable.
However, every time he experiences this program, Owen’s expression will always be very odd, because this feeling is a bit like the silicone products he purchased out of curiosity from some street store simply when he was an adolescent, by the way, the matching oil is not easy to clean up after use, and it is very easy to be found out, as well as don’t ask him how he knows it.
Changing into loose clothes, Owen, who felt himself to be in a full state, went to the greenhouse to look for Dale, and as for the purpose, huh, never heard of water overflowing will overflow, so a mature man knows how to clean up his inventory in time before it overflows.
Come to the greenhouse door, Owen found that the plant guards at the door have changed a bit more, obviously Dale has gained a lot of inspiration from Crazy Dave’s notes and still has the ability to realize it, based on this ability alone, it has already gotten rid of the identity of the flower pot and the canary, otherwise he would not have kept increasing the treatment of the other side.
Owen although two lives, but he never overestimated his own ability, can is can, can not is can not, show off the result is to make a mess of things, so he never do unnecessary things, but give things to the professionals to do, anyway, has the system of him is the core of everything, do not need to worry about being hollowed out, just need to give the corresponding treatment, so that these professionals to work for him on it.
Entering the greenhouse, Owen found that Dale was rarely not taking care of the plants or boiling magic potions, but was drumming up something, and when he approached to take a look, his face turned green.
At this time Dale hand holding a metal rod, you see it eight inches long, three inches thick, one end of the thick to one end of the narrow, there are uneven patterns in the above, up and down back and forth, will that herb pounded soft as mud.
“Is this the pestle and mortar your mother left you?” Owen didn’t ask how the thing looked so chic, a man who had trouble keeping his back straight was such a good talker, so he had the good sense to pull away from the conversation while pulling out a small bottle.
“Is this the source of the mutation?” Dale, who had put away the pestle and mortar, picked up the vial Owen had brought and shook it, looking curiously at the green shards inside. The bottle contained the very fragment of that green emerald, most of the fragments Owen had placed in the lowest level of the dungeon, and then filled a little bit of it and gave it to Dell to study, to see if it could be refined into a bloodline potion.
Dell was very interested in Owen’s idea, but she was more interested in him herself.
Dell’s craft has become more and more refined, the stewed tonic soup not only tastes good, the effect is also good, it is just a little bit costly, Owen lay there a little speechless.
Owen just slowed down, Maya on black silk high heels stepped over, apparently from receiving the news of his return, began to pinch the watch to count the time, shower, walk, fuck, plus a soup to slow down, half a point is not wasted, so that he can not even find half an excuse.
The situation of the territory is good, although Owen put most of his energy on the relics in the first period of time, but when he was making the puppets, he also took care of some matters in the territory, such as the transformation of serfs and the training of soldiers.
Now that there are no more serfs in the territory, and the training of soldiers has gradually begun, the strength is unprecedentedly strong, but the trouble is also coming faster than he imagined.
During this period of time, a lot of outsiders have appeared around the territory, including robbers, horse thieves, people from the Second Northland Pioneer Corps, scouts with ulterior motives, adventurers and professionals, the composition is very complicated.
Fortunately, Owen prioritized strengthening the cavalry of the territory, the newly trained 20 scout cavalry and 30 light cavalry were enough to deter the other side, after all, those who could kill dozens of cavalry would not do the errand work.
However, Maya knew that this was not a long term solution, it was better to block than to block, and tightening the security would only arouse their curiosity, after all, she knew too well the trouble of these outsiders.
Therefore, the taverns and inns that were just for show were immediately packed up and used to allow the outsiders to stay.
All of the territory’s citizens had gone through the system transformation, so these outsiders couldn’t find out any useful information here, but they still set their sights on the Magic Horn Forest.
It couldn’t be helped, the north land was endless, but the Magic Horn Forest looked like a place to hide secrets.
But because of the relationship of the wooden fortress, these people either returned without any success or had to choose a detour, because the wooden fortress did not allow any outsiders to approach.
This point did not arouse the suspicion of outsiders, because all the lords everywhere did so, and even more excessive.
The number of outsiders who have been hanged indiscriminately by their local lords is so large that no one cares.
Therefore, the outsiders can only choose to give up or detour, this detour will not know where to go around, after all, nowadays the magic horn forest is full of mutant creatures, there is also an unknown number of magic horn kobolds, even if the army wants to go deeper is not an easy thing, not to mention three or five groups of outsiders, so for a time there is no thing to happen, but everyone knows that it’s only temporary, because the word “peace and quiet” has never been with the The outsiders have no connection with the word “peace and quiet”.
