Chapter 516 173. The Devil and the Devil’s Visit
A scarlet devil’s eye hung high in the night sky.
The evil eye exuding a strong aura illuminates the surrounding clouds, and the entire sky is filled with a strange and evil scarlet.
This eye, like a living devil, was searching for something in the red light of the city. At a certain moment, it suddenly stared at the bedroom window of the city lord's mansion——
Annan woke up in bed.
There is no scarlet eye outside the window, only the peaceful city dormant under the silver moon.
But the horror and reality of that dream still lingered in Annan's heart... A voice in the dark told him that the dream was not just a dream. It was a warning to him from some mysterious force, a sign of an upcoming disaster...
Hululu--
Annan raised his head and saw Lily lying in his arms, Purring.
Looking at the sleeping Lily, Annan became relieved and fell asleep again...
A scarlet devil's eye hung high in the night sky.
The devil's eye exuding a strong aura illuminates the surrounding clouds, and the entire sky is filled with a strange and evil scarlet...
This devil's eye that seems to be alive is gone. Searching, staring at Annan in front of the window, it seems to be closer than the previous dream...
It seems that an unknown disaster is quietly approaching.
Annan woke up from his dream again. It seemed that some time had passed and Lily was nowhere to be seen.
Dreaming about the devil's eyes twice in a row is obviously not a coincidence... Is he being targeted by the devil king?
Annan activated the amulet: "Help me, Mr. Swaro."
Mr. Swaro, who appeared in pajamas and a nightcap, looked at the disheveled Annan sitting on the bed. With a look of disgust on his face, Annan said, "I dreamed of the Demon Lord."
Mr. Swaro's expression became serious, he held the staff that appeared in the void and released a high-level detection technique.
“Do you think you are being targeted by it?”
"Twice, the devil's eye found me the first time, and got closer to me the second time."
"The devil's malice will be obvious, but I can't find anything... Chapter Tell me when it shows up three times.”
Annan watched Mr. Swaro go back to sleep, but he was no longer sleepy.
Putting on the mage's robe, Annan lay in front of the window.
The cold moonlight shines on the street. The civilians who were still awake sat talking under the street lights.
The war is over and many of them will leave. Although Liberty City is beautiful, it is not as good as my hometown.
On the surface, there is no shortage of jobs in Liberty City. In fact, all jobs are brought about by expansion. After the mage tower, port, houses, and city walls are built, and the Free City can accommodate everyone, they will be embarrassed to find that there is no work they can do in the city.
Magic Image cannot provide jobs, so the newspaper office can only squeeze in dozens of workers including workers.
Only the spinning mills provide hundreds of jobs for women, and the future ports will have almost the same number. Lumberjacks, quarries, and farmers, together, will provide work for several thousand people at most.
And now Liberty City houses tens of thousands of people.
Without jobs, there is no salary, without salary, there is no consumption, without consumption, there is no way for money to circulate, money no longer circulates, the city’s tax revenue decreases, and it cannot maintain infrastructure——
It’s just that the problem of Liberty City has been Annan, who easily earned tens of thousands of gold coins, covered it up.
Annan realizes why Olmedo thinks the population is now too large. The new Liberty City could not support more than 30,000 people.
The City Lord’s Mansion needs to provide more jobs!
Annan thought about it for a while and then stopped thinking about it. He, the city lord, has to do everything personally, so why should the deputy city lord do it!
Olmedo was once the Lord of Breeze City, and Itilia also managed the Osulund Territory. They knew better than themselves...
A smell of sulfur suddenly came out of Annan's arms, and he was stunned. Remove the hot parchment rolls.
The silhouette of the succubus was burning, and Belldonna's face appeared.
"Did I disturb your rest?"
"Uh... I don't need to." Annan said in a panic.
Belludona said nonchalantly: "I just want to tell you that I am a devil now." "Were you a devil before?"
"I mean, I picked it I lost my internship."
"Oh...congratulations."
"So, as a human being who helped me, what can I do for you?"
Annan was about to refuse when a burst of exclamation came from outside the window.
Looking out the window, several soldiers were chasing a shadow running on the roof...I don't know if it was a ranger or a thief? Definitely not warriors and mages. The former will make a hole in the roof, but the latter will not do such a thing.
Professionals need to vent their exuberant energy. Wine, cards, magical images...but not enough...
"Annan?"
Annan woke up from his meditation: "I remember you are...'a salesman', right?" ”
"What do you want? Pure? Charming? Petite or plump."
"Feng...you know, I have a city...the professionals here always give me trouble recently..."
"A killing commission? I haven't done such a job yet, but I can give it a try..."
"What I mean is that a fulfilling nightlife should keep them honest. Less."
Berudona understood what Annan meant: "You want me to 'promote' it in your city?"
"It should be said to be cooperation."
Annan briefly described his fantasy: allowing some female and male demons to solicit business in the tavern.
“How much do you want to take from each business?”
“Half.”
“Then we divide it into three parts, one for you, one for me, and one for them. One serving.”
"I have no problem."
As a calculating devil, Belludona knew that it seemed that her income was less than half...but she didn't have many customers, and as long as she cooperated with Annan's city...< br>
“You need me to change into that outfit——” Belludona’s attitude was full of enthusiasm.
"No! I'll go to Evelyn's tavern first and ask, do you want to come with me?"
"We are not demons, it is difficult to go to the main plane..."< br>
"I have a way to get you here...but I can't send you back."
"It doesn't matter, I can come back by myself!" Belludonna said expectantly.
Annan used Belludona's medium as a medium to release low-level summoning spells.
The parchment suddenly became dim, and Belludonna's figure appeared on the teleportation array.
"Do you need me to turn into a human?" asked Belludonna, who was standing on the dissipating teleportation array, maintaining devilish features such as horns and horizontal pupils.
"No need-"
Bang-
The door was opened, and the devil's breath alerted Della. Annan introduced: "You have met, Belludona."
"A dark elf guard?" Belludona stared at Dela, she remembered that dark elves are known for their betrayal, cruelty and greed... …
“I made a deal with the devil, so it’s normal to have a dark elf bodyguard, right?”
Oh, I almost forgot he's a warlock.
