Chapter 226 79. Xingyue Bay News
Family factions and heirs compete for power, and Annan Reeves is no exception. But because he was underage, he was ostracized and ignored by his family. The unbearable Annan Reeves wanted to pray to the devil for strength——
The blue dragon's rough whisper interrupted the trainee devil's reverie:
"Devil, standing in front of you is the guardian of the north, the lord of Xingyue Bay, the nemesis of the rat people, the king of the north, Annan Reeves."
Annan was surprised. He looked up and saw the red ghost floating happily - the introduction of the blue dragon came from it.
"King of the North, Brudonna greets you." The flame relief caressed its chest to express respect: "What do you need?"
"I want a contract witnessed by the devil."
Annan told that the apprentice devil made a contract: Xingyue Bay will hand over the northern part of the Glacier River to the druids to restore the forest, and they are not allowed to cut down at will, and the druids will cultivate crops for Xingyue Bay.
"Do I need to set a trap for you?"
"No."
The contract, written in Common, was quickly completed and presented on a relief of flames. Next it was the blue dragon's turn:
"Please help me check the loopholes in the contract."
The amber dragon eyes stared at the contract, and soon found a strange text - a whole The passage was written in extremely tiny cursive script: The devil has the right to cancel the contract.
"This is in case both parties to the contract want to cancel the contract, but since you can't accept it..."
The trainee devil changed this part, and then the blue dragon discovered the decorative pattern again It is an ancient Greek language, and its meaning is: This contract requires payment to the devil every human calendar year.
"I thought we could get acquainted and become friends."
Annan saw the cunning of devils, and deception is their innate talent--the apprentice devil who was exposed remained calm: "Of course we can become friends."
“How do I pay for it?”
“We charge everything, emotions, memories, treasures.”
“How much gold does a contract cost?”
But the apprentice devil refused and said: "Hell does not need gold coins."
"Gold coins do not belong to treasure?"
"Of course they do, but you don't care about gold coins, right?"
< br>The devil's price comes from what the trader values. One gold coin is enough for the blue dragon...
Thinking of a gold coin, Annan knew what to trade with. He asked Red Ghost to bring a recording magic stone and handed it to the flame relief: "How about using it to exchange contracts?"
Annan didn't know what would happen if the devils watched "The Fall of the Wizard's Tower". But is there supposed to be the first fan from hell?
"It is a precious thing..."
The apprentice devil stared at the Recording Philosopher's Stone and agreed to the exchange.
As Annan threw the magic stone into the flames, a clean and effective devil's contract gradually condensed from the burning flames.
Annan caught the warm, sulfurous Devil's Contract, and then asked the red ghost to bring the tree druid.
"I'm waiting for your next call." The trainee devil said goodbye to Annan.
"I hope there will be less deception between us next time." Annan said, and the flame relief completely dissipated.
Soon after, the tree man druid appeared in the blue dragon's lair.
"Hello, Your Excellency Blue Dragon." greeted the tree druid who saw the blue dragon. Druids often deal with dragons, including blue dragons. It clearly knows that if you see a blue dragon, there must be other blue dragons around...
Ilimoyas raised her head proudly.
Everything went smoothly. Annan and the tree druid signed each other's names on the contract and let the effective contract burn back to hell.
The druids took back the forest, and Annan got a good harvest.
After the tree man druid left, Annan fulfilled the promise of five gold coins, and did not forget to complain about the poverty of Xingyue Bay again.
The blue dragon held two gold coins smaller than its fingertips in its claws, as if painting a new home, and placed the two gold coins on the bare rocks.
Annan, who was holding the remaining three gold coins, raised his head in confusion.
“You still owe me three gold coins!”
……
There is nothing new in Xingyue Bay. In other words, there is something new every day.
On this day, the citizens of Xingyue Bay discovered that some foreign figures appeared in the wheat fields that had not yet broken. The guards called them druids. It is said that they can produce 1,800 pounds per wheat field. ——Oh, it’s 1,800 kilograms now.
The women said that druids were planting trees on the other side of the glacier river.
At school, the teacher of the newly opened agriculture class is a tree druid, teaching the students how to fertilize, how to fertilize soil, what kind of irrigation, and how to get rid of insects.
And Glacier Port - Annan defrauded the hard workers, which greatly damaged their vitality. The construction of the port was temporarily suspended. Not long after it was restored, there was no time to retaliate against Xingyue Bay. The second wave of revenge from Xingyue Bay was unexpected. And arrived.
Three five-meter-tall tree men broke into Glacier Port and destroyed the port, bringing the progress of Glacier Port almost back to the beginning.
It is said that Gema was so angry that the old housekeeper came to Xingyue Bay in person. Annan met him with a blank expression: "You have angered the forest, causing the druids to retaliate, and What does Xingyue Bay have to do with it?”
"Your Excellency Annan, I saw the Druid in your wheat field when I came here..."
In addition to being sulky, the old housekeeper was also in disbelief. He could not imagine that the Druid was actually helping humans...
"You must have seen it wrong..."
As Annan said this, he and the old housekeeper came to the wheat field - a scarecrow in a cloak stood next to the wheat seedlings that were just ankle high.
The old housekeeper looked around the wheat field, only the farmers were plowing in the wheat field. He had no choice but to talk about Annan's robbery of hard workers.
"You hired them, and we hired them at a better price. This is normal. We didn't even step into your territory."
Next, the guard captain led the recruits to wander around the south frequently. Borders, because Glacierport is doing the same. However, the soldiers in Glacier Port have to work, but the soldiers in Xingyue Bay don't.
Their progress easily surpassed Glacier Port,
The port and shipyard built at the same time have been completed, and several sampans and wooden boats have begun to be built to try out.
A month ago, Annan commissioned Olmedo and the Lion Mercenary Group to search for shipbuilders in the north. Just being able to float cannot support the voyage to Xingyue Bay. They need a real cargo sailboat.
When such a ship of unknown origin appears in the southern seaport, those merchants, sea tribes, and pirates will know that there is a seaport in the northern sea at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.
A few days later, some sea fish quietly appeared in the market in Breeze City.
The people of Breeze City soon learned that it was shipped from Xingyue Bay. It was the "New Year's dinner" eaten by the prisoners in "Betal's Redemption". Fish is also meat, and not only is it cheaper than pigs, it also tastes much better - people who want to try it quickly snap up the hundreds of pounds of fish that are delivered every day.
