Chapter 939: Village Chief Batty

Iscar turned to look at Roddy: "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

"Materials science is very important to military industry, and I agree that we should lay a solid foundation for now." Rody said one thing after another, but he was secretly delighted in his heart - the research and development efficiency of the Dragon Clan is faster than that of Elson's Magic Research Department Much more, in other words, the department with the strongest research and development strength under Rody is no longer in Elson, but the dragons in Herchino Tower and Dragon Tower.

The other giant dragons didn't feel that they were being used at all. Iskar was eager to try, and raised his hands to finish using spells on the test bench in front of him: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's start with heat resistance!"

Seeing that they were vigorously developing the properties of the metal, Rody left the laboratory with a few words - the research and development of this basic material is actually very boring, even if it is a dragon, it cannot avoid a lot of repetitive experiments.

"Hopefully I can find the right recipe before I get bored..."

Thinking so, Rody went downstairs and took a look around the administrative office area on the middle floor. Temporarily selected officials are processing the information submitted from various places here. In the current kingdom, the most capable people are not the nobles, but their stewards. These housekeepers thus became the main members of the first batch of "civil servants".

He glanced casually, and after confirming the work efficiency of these people, he was planning to practice archery. Suddenly, someone from the intelligence department came to report a piece of news: Rowling wanted to take the civil service screening exam.

Rowling is the daughter of Charles II, who used to be the princess of this kingdom—but now she is just an ordinary girl from a commoner family. After the enthronement ceremony, the life of the pardoned royal family is actually not tight. Luo Di gave them a piece of land, and also matched the servants who stayed in the palace until the end as servants. The fields are cultivated, and the basic necessities of life are taken care of. As long as they don't lie down and wait to die, their future life will definitely not be worse than that of the local nobles.

Of course, their family lives under the surveillance of intelligence agencies. As long as they keep to themselves, Rody promises that they can live a peaceful life. If they plot other things, they will naturally not be polite. Over the past few months, intelligence has shown that they really have no guts to make trouble. Charles II was drunk all day long, but the queen and several sons were self-reliant and self-reliant, and Rowling worked harder than others.

Now, in order to recruit talents, Luo Di started the "civil servant examination" which is still in the trial stage to test the water, so as to select suitable "civil servants". This method is almost unheard of for most people, so most people hold a wait-and-see attitude , and there was no positive sign-up phenomenon.

Luo Di was not in a hurry about this. After all, the matter of Yimu Lixin had a process, but he didn't expect that a girl like Rowling would dare to stand up and sign up at this time.

Her identity is very sensitive, but precisely because of this sensitivity, Rody immediately replied after a brief hesitation: "Do not interfere in any way, and ensure her safety."

*****

While Roddy was thinking about governing the country, Linnis Village in the Quiet Whispering Forest seemed like another world.

There is no spacious and comfortable wooden house like Elsa Village, but the traditional tree house structure of the wood elves. The residents of the wood elves all wore simple clothes. In November, when the weather was getting colder, many wood elves turned blue from the cold, and trembled uncontrollably when they spoke.

However, there was no distress on the faces of the villagers, because when Brody visited here some time ago, he left a lot of grain and dried meat. If he saved some food, it would basically be enough for them to survive this winter safely. Moreover, the hunting team in the village is no longer what it used to be—the young wood elves who used to return empty-handed now return with a full load every time they go out, and sometimes even bring back the carcasses of large predators such as tigers and leopards.

"Remember...the only ones who can save us are the wood elves themselves!"

Village Chief Batty was lecturing to the young hunting team in front of him. The latter all looked resolute and answered loudly: "Yes!"

"You are the strongest fighters, don't be afraid of any enemy."

After all, the hunting team packed up today's harvest,

The village head Batty returned to his tree house. He was ten years younger than Brody, and he didn't look old. After entering the room, he pointed at it casually, and a simple wooden magic circle in the center of the room lit up with a bright blue light.

If you look carefully, you can find a small magic crystal inlaid on the wooden magic circle. Under the light, the black tomes of the other party in the wooden house are particularly conspicuous.

"Only power is eternal..."

He murmured an awkward high elf phrase in a low voice, and then flipped through a note on the bedside.

"It was their arrogance that led to their own failure, and now we...wouldn't be like this."

The village head Batty had a serious expression on his face, and saluted as if performing some kind of ritual. Then I started to read carefully. During this process, he continued to practice spells, but now Village Chief Batty is no longer using the "natural" magic he once controlled. The condensation and dissipation of all spells are accompanied by a faint blue light.

After several hours of practice like this, the village chief Batty walked out of the wooden house. The prey brought back by the hunting team had been processed, and the strong smell of meat wafted throughout the village. It wasn't until Batty said that the meal was ready that every family shared the broth and started eating.

Not long after, other wood elves from outside the village came to visit. These are wood elves from nearby villages who come to "learn". They brought food and some iron ore as a reward, and then the seven or eight young people, together with the village's original hunting team, began to learn magic under the guidance of Batty.

"boom!"

Explosions sounded one after another. The wood elf, who had just learned magic for a few months, calmly looked at the shattered wooden target in front of him. The flying fragments fell more than ten meters away, and when they fell to the ground, the burnt smell was extremely pungent.

"Remember! This is power! The power you control in your own hands!"

Village Chief Batty held a magic crystal that dissipated power in his hand. There were large cracks on the surface of the crystal. It stands to reason that the magic crystal in this state would often explode directly. But in his hands, the originally violent and unstable energy seemed to be domesticated, and under his control, it became an element at his command.

"We must be prepared to face the mental shock at any time, and we must grit our teeth and survive in order to survive in this world... Otherwise, we are no different from pigs."

The words of the village chief Barty obviously did not come up with him, because the word "pig" is in high elf language. A total of more than 20 young wood elves responded loudly with excited expressions, and at the same time they trained harder-these magic apprentices are now able to skillfully cast spells, and they are not as weak as learning "Dust Raising Art" and "Mage Hand" The low-level spells used at this time are all offensive spells, and they are quite powerful.

Targets made of wooden sticks were placed in a row in the open space. The wood elves in simple clothes looked solemn, chanting spells loudly, and at the same time released the energy dissipated from the magic crystals in their hands... After rounds of bombing, the vegetation that was originally full The clearing was already scorched and black, with no grass growing.

The "magic crystal" is a rare item, but they have a lot of people here, as if there is no shortage of money at all.

Village Chief Batty trained until dark before letting them rest. After such a busy day, he was still full of energy. After returning to the wooden house, he continued to study spells like a demon. In the early hours of the morning, he fell asleep with the notebook in his arms.

In the past few days, the update has been very weak, because of the seriousness of the Kavin card, it is almost in a state of no manuscripts, and I hope that it will be straightened out and relieved in a few days. There are so many things to take into account in the later stage of writing that I really can't turn my head.
