Chapter 186 Skeleton: This is my farmland!
As the first city built by the Antolians in an abandoned land, Leon has always had high hopes for Fort Wilson.
It may be an exaggeration to say that it is the city of desire in the world, but even though it has not yet been completed, the title of the city of desire in the abandoned land is almost within reach.
There is no other reason. The fact that there is no black fog is enough to make this city famous.
Although the current new city is just an outline, and even the outer city walls have not yet been built, it already has a vague aura of a giant city.
What gives this city such momentum is naturally the World Tree that stands in the city.
Under the careful care of the Antolian people, the originally withered yellow branches and leaves of the World Tree have now taken on a refreshing green color.
Under the influence of the World Tree, countless flowers and plants bloomed around the city, so that the city, which was still under construction, looked like a garden standing proudly on this land, a pure land on earth without the interference of black mist.
As time went by, the pioneers who moved from Antolia had passed the initial nervous stage.
The wind pillar condensed by the shadow manipulator wanders over the city, but it has never had the slightest impact on the people living on this land.
On the contrary, it has become a wonder that the residents talk about, allowing them to imagine the past of this land during their daily rest.
Of course, Antolia's citizens are not the only ones living around this city.
As natives of this land, the Antolians are no stranger to skeletons wandering outside the city.
But the skeletons wandering around would eventually trample the crops that the people had worked so hard to plant, so that they had to build a circle of hedges and fences around the farmland.
Fortunately, these skeletons with minimal brain circuits are as stupid as ever, and a fence that is not too high is enough to keep them out.
Of course, not all skeletons are fools.
For example, those skeletons whose empty skulls were stuffed with eternal fire by the Antolians gave birth to extremely simple consciousness.
It seems that because the Antolian people gave them intelligence, these white skeletons have an inexplicable affection for the Antolian people who came from afar.
So much so that they began to spontaneously imitate human behavior and wave hoes in the farmland.
For this reason, Andrew had to open up a special experimental field to satisfy the farming hobby of the little skeletons, and had a wooden sign with skulls painted on it erected on the edge of the field to mark the ownership of the field.
Faced with this move, the little skeletons were even more excited, as if they had found the meaning of skeleton life.
This is their farmland!
No matter day or night, they were wielding hoes in the fields and eradicating weeds.
It's just that because their skeletons are too old, every time the morning sun shines on this land, the Antolians will find a lot of dead bones scattered on the farmland.
The heavy farm work left them with broken bones.
Therefore, Andrew had to arrange manpower again to disassemble and install the broken bones of the little skeletons.
However, after struggling day after day, one of the skeletons seemed to have achieved a leap in thinking.
It probably believed that the reason why the people in the territory were able to cultivate good fields was ultimately because they rested at night.
Although skeletons do not need to sleep, it seems that for them, imitating human behavior can help them find the meaning of life.
So... when a sleeping citizen woke up in the middle of the night and found a skeleton lying on his bed... the
citizens had to build a simple building for him on the edge of the farmland tended by the skeletons. 's premises.
There is no way, after these days of getting along, even though the pioneers living in this land have understood the harmless nature of these guys, the feeling of opening their eyes in the middle of the night and looking at a skeleton... just I understand everything I can say.
As for why the pioneers did not expel the skeletons...
First, it was because their lords planned to observe whether the skeletons could become the helpers of the Antolian people after gaining intelligence.
The second reason is that the details of the skeleton have not yet been found out. If a skeleton king appears after the expulsion, it will be too late to regret it.
And the most important thing is the third point!
The Antolians are messengers of peace, representatives of win-win cooperation, and saviors of all creatures and races in the abandoned land!
Under the leadership of Leon Jimena, Marquis of Antolia, they will rejuvenate this land and rekindle hope for the creatures living on this land!
What?
You ask, what is the use of setting up such a big flag?
Facts have proven that the results of this are very significant.
For example, Alicia, the queen of elves, took the initiative to come to Fort Wilson, hoping that the Antolians could save the elves from the dire straits.
Since Fort Wilson has not yet been completed, even though Alicia is the Elf Queen, she can only live in the hotel at Fort Wilson, waiting for Leon's arrival.
But...
the queen is a queen after all, and the elves must give her face.
Therefore, Qiaoerni specially arranged Alicia in a hotel built next to the World Tree.
On the one hand, it can make the elves feel the sincerity of the Antorians, but on the other hand... the lush greenery exuded by the World Tree is enough to stir Alicia's trembling heart again and again.
The World Tree in Moon Shadow Forest is indeed tall and strong.
But...
the yellowing and falling leaves impacted the hearts of the elves again and again.
You know, before the Antolians set foot on this land, the branches and leaves of this world tree were also yellow and shrunken. What Alicia saw with her own eyes will undoubtedly become the best bargaining chip for the Antolians!
"Your Majesty the Queen!"
When the young Marquis of Antolia pushed the door in under the leadership of the maid, Alicia was leaning against the window in a daze.
Under her delicate eyelashes, her slightly trembling eyes were like deep pools of water, silently looking at the birds staying on the branches of the World Tree and listening to their melodious and melodious singing voices.
Not to mention the trees that are gradually losing their vitality, even the birds and beasts that were once very common in the Moon Shadow Forest seem to have become quite rare now.
"Leon."
After hearing Leon's voice, the Elf Queen, who had been staring at the World Tree, woke up from a dream and cast her eyes on the young human Marquis.
"I heard from Qiaoerni that the Moon Elf is planning to make another deal with the Antolians?"
At this moment, Leon's face showed a proper smile.
