Chapter 252: Eldest Sister
"Miss Ciri, we made an agreement not to play that 'save' alone, and I will come back tomorrow." Jialuoli instructed Ciri who was nibbling on an apple in the study before leaving.
"Got it." Shirley nodded in agreement with Jialuoli.
So under the watchful eye of the caster lady, Jia Luoli and the black wood elf priest left Hearthstone Tavern.
The second Jialuoli left, Xili sat back at the desk and continued her farming journey.
"Shirley, you should be sleeping now." Joshua took a cup of hot milk and put it in Shirley's hand and said.
"Huh? Where did the unscrupulous boss who oppressed the employees go?"
Ciri picked up the milk and glanced at Joshua. After getting along with Joshua for a long time, Ciri learned a lot of 'Joshua' vocabulary.
"These days are your vacation. If a girl wants to look better, it's better to go to bed on time."
"How do you feel like you suddenly become like my mother...uh..."
When Ciri said this sentence, she suddenly fell silent. After taking a sip of the hot milk in the cup, she continued her in-game work without saying a word.
Joshua felt Shirley's silence, and suddenly remembered that the mother of the magician lady had passed away, and she and her sister were also abandoned by their father and fled to this city.
Seeing Ciri's silence, Joshua didn't poke at Ciri's sad news, but changed the subject.
"If you're farming, bone meal made from skeleton shooter's bones can speed up the efficiency." Joshua gave Shirley a little strategy for the game.
"Bone meal? Really... I wonder what this thing is for."
After Xili got the strategy, she became more enthusiastic about her farming career. Joshua felt that due to the "toxicity" of this game, it is estimated that the lady magician would have to play until the day before she could rest.
Joshua went directly to the window and looked at Nolan outside... After owning the second World Tree, it was only a matter of time before Joshua's control expanded from Nolan to Farosi.
Under the influence of the three movies, the residents of Nolan have partially changed their impression of 'demons'. Now, if a demon with a less ferocious appearance walks into Nolan, Joshua believes that most of Nolan None of the residents will be hostile to it, but they will be vigilant.
Compared with the task of increasing the favorability of demons, it was the "Diary of the Inquisitor" written by Cheryl that made the residents of Nolan's impression of the Kingdom of the Holy Order drop to a freezing point.
Qiao Xiu's cultural invasion plan has achieved initial results. At the very least, it has drawn the country of Faluoxi to the opposite of the country of the Holy Church, and has also become a potential ally of the Demon Realm.
The wider the coverage of the magic net, the easier it is to subvert the sacred image that the Kingdom of the Holy Order has established in the hearts of mankind for a long time.
In addition to new movies and games, what Qiao Xiu has to do next is a more important hardware upgrade.
That is to let Nolan's people watch 'TV'.
The tree of the world residing in Jialuoli's body gave Joshua hope.
"Speaking of... when are you going to teach at the Rursk Higher Academy of Magic?" Ciri asked suddenly.
"Rursk Higher Magic Academy? The magic academy where your sister attended?"
"Well, my sister has asked me several times to ask when you are going to teach. The name of the course seems to be 'Software Programming'."
Under Ciri's reminder, Joshua suddenly remembered that the man in gray had given him an invitation letter, inviting him to teach programming courses in his academy as an honorary professor.
It's just that Qiao Xiu was bothered by the judge at the time, and later he was busy filming "The Dog Hachiko", so he never had time to go to the high magic academy to teach.
"About this..." Joshua took out the invitation letter from the drawer, with an owl imprinted on it.
When Qiao Xiu was thinking about finding a time to visit the man in gray, a text message popped up on Qiao Xiu's magic web interface.
When Qiao Xiu clicked on this text message, the signature on the text message was a name that Qiao Xiu was very familiar with.
Cecilie Anorod, the Second Princess of the Demon Realm, is also Joshua's elder sister.
………………
A few hours ago, it was in a field on the edge of the Demon King's City.
"The crops here are also withered."
Cecily squatted down, picked up the gray crops on the ground, and lightly shook them in her hands. These crops instantly turned into dust and dissipated in Cecily's hands.
"Prophet, do you know the reason?" Cecily asked the figure standing beside her.
"I'm sorry, Her Royal Highness Cecily, I can't know the reason why the crops withered."
This so-called Prophet is a very young demon, her height is just about the same as that of Cecily, who is squatting down.
"It must have been affected by something." Cecily looked at the gray crops on the ground and had a bad feeling.
"Your Highness Cecily, this is already the third field. If it continues, the royal city may experience famine this year."
The Prophet pushed the wooden-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and looked at the withered fields with concern.
Originally in this season, this field should have reached the harvest time.
Although some demons in the demon world do not need to live on regular food, most demons still need food to maintain their lives.
"What about the grain stored in the granary?" Cecily asked.
"If all of them are used to supply civilians... fifteen days is already the limit." The Prophet quickly replied.
"It's not enough... to let the monitors visit the territories of the four dukes. I want to know the status of their territories." Cecily said.
The territory of the Demon Realm is not as vast as the human world. The Demon Realm has a 'boundary'... and most of the cities in the Demon Realm, except the Royal City, are governed by four dukes.
"Understood, Your Highness." After receiving the order, the prophet immediately walked into the city.
Cecily stood up and looked at the towering city walls of the Demon Realm King City. She vaguely felt that something had changed in the Demon Realm, and an indescribable aura permeated the Demon Realm.
This does not come from the death breath of the undead. Conscious undead are 'legal' residents in the devil world, and some undead even have their own houses and status in the royal city.
The breath Cecily felt was something more malicious.
Must... Start the investigation, Cecily walked towards the city gate, but just as she took a step, she felt a sharp pain in her mind.
Cecily covered her forehead, and the pain disappeared quickly, as if it had never appeared in just a few seconds.
But this is not the first time. As far as Cecily knows, every Chaos Demon in the royal city has had a short-term headache. In the beginning, it would happen every ten days, but now it will happen every few days. once.
Cecily checked her body, and she didn't suffer any trauma at all.
In the end what happened?
Cecily looked at the residue of the crops in her hands, and her anxiety became more and more intense.
