Chapter 114: City Opening

In a small room made of stones, the fiery furnace emitted a high-temperature orange glow. Duncan gasped, pulling the bellows next to the furnace to continuously heat up the temperature of the furnace.

Ma Qi was bare-chested, holding a discus in the furnace with iron tongs, sweating profusely on his forehead, and took out the forged blade after the blade was burned red.

Jingle!

The repeated beating has continued from yesterday to now. The original big iron block has been beaten into iron pieces, and it still hasn't been called to stop.

At this time, Xiang En came in from the outside, with his hands behind his back, followed by Naka.

Glancing at Ma Ji who was still beating the knife embryo with a dull expression, he nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the formed knife embryo.

In fact, he can't tell if it's good or not, but he has been playing all day, and the intensity should be okay.

Instructing the toolman Ma Ji, he spent half an hour performing a series of processing steps that Xiang En didn't understand very well, and then inserted the red-hot knife handle into the wooden knife handle that had been prepared.

After the construction was completed, the knife still needed to be sharpened. This job was continued to be handed over to two tool men who looked like walking dead.

"Uh uh, good..." Ma Ke took the long knife that was still a little dusty, and ran mechanically to the edge of the pool to sharpen the knife.

Xiang En is not a devil, let them grind each side with coarse sand 2,000 times, fine sand 5,000 times, and then wipe with a cloth 10,000 times, not much, and it will be finished in a day.

He walked out of the forging room with Naka, and Xiang En walked into the manor, inspecting his own territory.

It is not uncommon for trolls to appear in the manor. After nearly three months of observation and communication, Xiang En has confirmed that these trolls are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. Now as long as they have something to drink and eat, they will work hard. Even 007 will not have any complaints.

Xiangen didn't care about any complaints. The serious shortage of labor in the manor made it impossible for Xiangen to let this batch of troll labor go unused.

The key is that it is really cheap to hire these trolls. They only need a little water and they bring their own food.

Now the trolls are at their happiest time, because after nearly three months of careful cultivation, the potatoes in the field have matured, and green plants about two meters high stand on the field. These potato-like things have a very high starch content, and eating one can keep them full for a whole day.

Now the trolls are digging potatoes in full swing. These alien potatoes are also varieties cultivated by troll wizards. They grow really big. The largest is as big as a basketball, and the smallest is as big as a football.

Just dug an acre of potatoes, the actual output was close to ten tons, which directly filled an ox cart.

The center of the manor is no longer empty. Next to the entrance of the basement, a wooden house was built by Xiang En. Now Xiang En no longer lives in the basement, but moved to a new wooden house.

The bedroom in the basement was reserved for Naka, at least it gave her a relatively private space, and she didn't have to share a room with other men.

There is a cellar on the other side of the wooden house, which was specially built by Xiang En to store grain.

Hogan is pulling a bullock cart of potatoes that have been cleaned of soil, and is stuffing them into the cellar. After the cellar is sealed, the potatoes can breathe independently, which will reduce the oxygen in the cellar, so that the potatoes can be stored for a longer period of time.

For the eight-meter-high and one-and-a-half-meter-wide fence that has been built, Xiang En only left an arch that can accommodate two ox carts passing in parallel, which is about five meters wide and six meters high.

But this entrance still lacks a real solid door.

Xiang En plans to make this door with iron. Ordinary iron ore is actually a very common thing. There are occasional open-pit iron mines near the mountains. Now there are two bullock carts transporting iron ore back and forth every day. The trolls and Bourne who are in charge of mining are still mining there.

The troll workers are hardworking and capable. With their help, many of Xiang En's previously difficult ideas have a basis for realization.

After inspecting the well-organized construction site of the manor, Xiang En returned to the wooden house and asked Naka to guard the door.

Xiang En entered the empty wooden house, walked through the living room, entered the bedroom, lifted the floor, and walked into the bright basement.

A magic lamp originally installed underground was dismantled by Xiang En and installed in this new underground residence.

Andrea, who was already pregnant, stayed underground almost every day, protected, not sleeping, but reading the few novels she had read once.

Every day is like a prison, and she can only go outside at night after the trolls have left, provided there is no blood moon.

There were creaking footsteps on the stairs, and Andrea, who was lying on the couch, immediately put down the novel and trotted towards Xiang En.

"Be careful, be careful, it's only been three months, be careful!" Seeing Andrea trotting all the way, Xiang En was startled. Although it was not the first time, every time he saw her jumping and jumping, he couldn't calm down.

From the obedience at the beginning to the helplessness now, Andrea rolled his eyes at him and muttered, "It's just pregnancy. I don't think there's any problem with it. There's no need to be careful to this extent, right?"

Xiang En first pulled Andrea back to sit on the recliner, and then taught him a lesson: "Even if you think it's okay, you still have to wait until the baby is born before continuing to play around. Time flies, so bear with it a little bit!"

Now Andrea's abdomen has bulged, and according to the state of this world that is no different from the earth, the child will be born in another six or seven months.

It was the first time for Xiang En to face such a thing, and he didn't want any accidents. He didn't just let Andrea just lie there. He would help her move her hands and feet at night, and help her stretch her muscles so that her body would not get rusty.

Winter is coming to an end, and Xiang En doesn't know what a pregnant woman can't eat, so he can only give her some more meat and vitamins.

Andrea complained for a while, and then happily listened to Xiang En's story, and listened to some cool texts after listening to the classics.

In an empire where entertainment is scarce, Shuangwen, as an entertainment story that relies on a lot of emotional guidance as the core, made Andrea very intoxicated.

mesmerized...

There is such a clean place on the far border of the Austin Empire, but within the entire empire, such a place does not exist.

The reason is simple, not all places have a natural mountain as a barrier.

The other areas of the Austin Empire are not blocked by steep terrain. Whether it is zombie beasts or survivors running around the world, they are like maggots in a cesspit, disgusting, dirty, irritable, and messy...

After two years in the partially closed city, at the end of winter, the magic barrier that had been closed for two years was finally opened.

A large number of survivors came out of the cage with sophisticated enchanted weapons and bathed in a brand new world.

They didn't like the dirty air, and they were even more disgusted by the zombie creatures that could be seen almost everywhere.
