Chapter 212 The Sudden "Surprise"

Under the threat of the magic bread for a year, Cecil has been calculating carefully. Every person and every material in this project has to go through his own accounting, and he strives to use every gold coin for the idea. A lot of experience.

For example, in order to be able to light up the Moon City at the same time, there must be a wire network of a corresponding scale. The copper wires sound simple, just stretch the copper thinly and elongated, but the insulation problem alone is a headache.In the era when there was no rubber, Cecil could only try to experiment with leather, paper, etc. In the end, he found that the products left by burning oil had a certain effect, which was the so-called asphalt.

There is oil near Tuhai, and it is surface oil with very good conditions. Compared with the extravagant practice of the San Benzie people using oil to paint walls, there are really many people in Tuhai - use it to burn.Proper asphalt is obtained by distilling petroleum, which is of course impossible here. Cecil will not even know this method, but the excellent natural environment has given him the best gift.

Natural asphalt helped Cecil a lot. Cowhide was used as the first layer of insulation, then wrapped in thick cotton and linen cloth, and finally wrapped with a layer of asphalt. "The children next door are crying."

Confirming that such wires would not electrocute—indeed, the hand-cranked dynamo would not produce enough current—Cecile began mass-producing the items, and quickly launched a "Town Renewal" campaign.

Want to light up the night?Want to avoid the choking smell of oily smoke?Want to study at night?

Come on, the era of electricity is coming, only 100 silver coins!

Of course, the above are all nonsense. Cecil is well aware that there will be a long wait for large-scale night electricity consumption. At least there must be enough scientists who have a thorough and intuitive understanding of electricity. At present, there are quite a few experimental mages in the research center. I am less interested in this wonderful energy, and the term "controlling lightning" is also very fascinating, but there is a lot of basic physics knowledge that needs to be supplemented before understanding "electricity", and Cecil's knowledge in this area has long been lacking. Give it to the teacher.

At this time, Cecil was extremely upset that the God of Paper Books had left a bunch of cool essays, and middle school textbooks are better than cool essays. It is clear that web essays are the natural enemy of paper books, so why are all the essays left behind? !

But looking at it from another angle, online articles can indeed be more attractive. Now there is a "study room" in Yuecheng. Many children and adults are always willing to go shopping in their spare time. At night, there are many hand-held cooling fans under the lanterns. , People holding herbal tea, listening to the people in the study room talking about web texts... Yes, this is a place where web texts are used to tell stories. After a paragraph, words and idioms will be written on the stone wall to explain the learning points The climate in Moon City has always been very dry, and the water dries up quickly. This period of time is just right for the next part of the novel.

This kind of "study room" became popular all over the city as soon as it was born. Some of them focused on learning, some on storytelling, and some added many other entertainment items, forming a new leisure trend.

The "study room" was really used for learning at the beginning. Some children are not at the age of learning interpreting magic, and they cannot communicate because of language barriers. After all, the Middle Kingdom is an immigrant country. The citizens come from all corners of the country, and their mother tongues are not the same. Adults can With the magic of translation, children have no choice but to learn a little more Chinese in addition to communicating with body language, so the "study room" came into being.

Cecil had to admit that if Paper Book God kept a pile of middle and high school textbooks, the effect would definitely not be so good.What he didn't expect was that far away in Luoxie, Alexander was sitting on the bed, reading a book with great interest, and laughing obscenely from time to time. On the cover of the book was written "Overbearing President, Pretty Secretary", and even accompanied by a For handsome men and beautiful women, it's just that the clothes are replaced by local styles.

"Your Majesty." Wagner put his head on Alexander's shoulder, his voice hoarse, "Good morning."

"Good morning, dear." Alexander moved the book to let Wagner see it clearly, "Have you read it? It is said that there are many new things from Moon City, hundreds of copies. I really don't know where it is. Who are they, how could they come up with something so interesting."

Wagner glanced at the book and said casually while kissing Alexander's shoulder: "It's all made up. Men conquer women and get everything with their face and money. You have all of these, Your Majesty."

"Of course." Alexander smiled triumphantly, "However, this book also reveals a lot of things, the steel monsters that fly in the sky are called airplanes, the long steel monsters that travel underground, and there are people who can sit in a drink. In the oil machine, everything is metal, buildings, cars, and many, many things, plastic bags, I have never heard of such a thing."

Without waiting for Wagner to respond, Alexander said happily again: "I see a country called the United States, which claims to be a free and democratic country. Well, democracy sounds abnormal, but freedom is very good. We should try our best to promote this Ideal." After a pause for a few seconds, he whispered, "I think it would be nice to let other countries be democratic."

Wagner's heart had already been alarmed. Of course, he had communicated with Langdon. The target of the Gay Knights tried their best to cover up everything about the Middle Kingdom and portray the Middle Kingdom as a rustic country place.

"It's just an imagination." Wagner embraced Alexander's broad chest. He was not as tall as Tifa, so he had no choice but to take the "delicate" route in front of Alexander. Work was very difficult under the pressure of his predecessor "White Moonlight" , "You don't need to take care of these little things at all."

"Do you think this is a trivial matter?" Alexander turned his face to stare at his king cavalry. He always felt that "Baker" was better, especially after "Baker" died, he felt more and more that he was a perfect king cavalry, even when he died. Just right.

After Wagner heard this question, his body froze, and his head went blank for a moment. This was the power from the magic contract, which oppressed him to tell the truth. He trembled. Alexander was not surprised. It was his defense, he just had to wait quietly for the answer, and that would be the real and only answer.

"Yes..." Wagner struggled to utter the answer, then panted a few times, and simply lay down on Alexander's lap, "Yes, Your Majesty, these are just trivial matters."

Alexander patted Wagner's head lovingly, and didn't say anything else. He just wanted the real answer, which is a matter of course for a monarch. As for the pain of the king's cavalry, what was it?

Wagner is not pretending—the debilitating effect is indeed very suitable for the current scene—he is just suppressing the turbulent backlash in his body. The consequences of violating a magic contract depend on the situation when the contract is concluded. If there is no will law, Right now his internal organs have turned into a puddle of flesh and blood. Even so, the law of wills can only transfer the consequences of contract magic. Rolling and howling, even the healing magic was ineffective, and soon after, the man became a corpse.

Alexander came back from the Battle of Maibei Valley and suddenly felt that Wang Qi should not be too indulgent. Not only Wang Qi, but also his servants should have magic contracts. He did not know why he suddenly had this idea, but since he has Just do it, it's not a big deal.

It can only be said that Cecil still has a romantic imagination about Wang Qi's "job". Cruelty and ruthlessness lurk below the surface of the water, and few people can see it. After all, the relationship between him and Langdon is like summer. The blue sky dotted with white clouds looks refreshed and happy.

"You guys are really enough." Oakes gritted his teeth and chewed the chocolate bar bitterly, "Spicy eyes, do you understand? Have you seen your own eyes, making love with eyes is also a crime!"

Chocolate is a newly discovered thing in the southern continent. This thing was found by the new species excavation team in the Middle Kingdom. Cecil did not give up looking for any new things. Since the Adventure Association and the Mercenary Union cannot be used, then you can Organize one, chocolate is the latest achievement, once launched, it is very popular, and it is a match made in heaven when paired with milk.

Oakes likes chocolate very much, and eats two bites for three meals a day, which is completely deadly sweet.

"What the hell is making love with eyes?" Cecil retorted unceremoniously, "You two are capable of doing it every day!"

It is certainly a good thing for Oakes to have a real body of his own, but it will be followed by a long period of adaptation for Russell. According to the gossip from Langdon, the current Oakes just happens to be Russell's different body in appearance. The type I like... This is fucking embarrassing.

Russell has a baby face, looks a little childish, coupled with the eccentric style of speaking, he is a noble young master who is not familiar with the world, and Oakes's last body is "the abducted noble young master ran away from home as a tutor", very charming and gentle scum, but at the moment , his appearance became blond, blue eyes and white skin, and he was quite young. Standing together, the two of them completely became a "double zero love", and it was very "no call".

After the lunch meeting ended in jest, when they left, Cecil pulled Langdon and whispered, "Will we break up?"

"I said no, they are soul-bound, and it is impossible to break up." Langdon said firmly.

"You know I'm not talking about the breakup." Cecil's voice was lower, furtive, "I mean, can Russell stay in this state?"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it." Langdon said, "Love can't just rely on emotion. Everything in this world is like this. You must find a way to manage it. What's the matter, are you the type to break up once the relationship is gone?"

"No, no, no, no!" The desire to survive made Cecil work hard, "Absolutely not! How is it possible! Besides, how can I have no feelings for you?" Even if people have no feelings, there are still cats?

Thinking of the soft, smooth touch of the big cat, Cecil immediately felt a little hard——fuck, am I perverted in abstinence?

Cecil's worries were really unnecessary. A few days later, he found that Oakes' hair had turned black. As far as he knew, there was no ordinary hair dye in this world. If you want to change the color of your hair, you just need to turn to magic. The perfectly natural-looking black hair is clearly the work of magic.

Not only that, Oakes also changed into a suit, cut his hair short, and kept a trimmed beard. Cecil, of course, unceremoniously "copied" the concept of modern clothing. Although the suit lacks luxury, it has more It is neat and capable, with a special flavor, but most people in this world have not yet accepted it, but a variety of modern women's clothing styles have blossomed, and different types are actually popular in each country.

I have to say, Oakes is really gay, he is super good at dressing up, the original blond young man has changed in this way, not only his age has suddenly increased, but also his style has matured a lot, plus he restrained his expression, and his serious appearance is really amazing Kind of bluffing.

Cecil found that Russell was obviously more enthusiastic. From time to time, his small eyes would look towards Oakes, completely unable to conceal his excitement.

At night, Cecil sat on the bed and asked, "Honey, what kind of me do you like?"

"Just like you are now." Langdon said without a second's hesitation.

"I mean, what kind of painting style?" Cecil did not give up.

Langdon turned around and said with some amusement, "How many styles of painting do you have?"

Cecil: "..."

Nima is so heartbroken!

Cecil, who only has one style of painting, soon began to look forward to the arrival of the golden autumn. The grassland where Yuecheng is located is not very hot in summer, except for the terrible ultraviolet rays. Forty degrees, coupled with the drought, many people began to spend their magic bits on making ice. The number of cold drink shops in the city increased rapidly, and they opened completely blindly, regardless of whether they could continue in the future.

Cecil can't control that much. Although there is a saying that "go to Moon City for business", it is simply impossible for everyone to make money. However, there are people who believe this.

Fred and Richard came back in mid-September, and they ran to see Cecil in a hurry. When they met, they excitedly said: "Your Majesty, we have attracted 1 people!"

Cecil opened his mouth and said like an idiot: "What?"

"Ten thousand, Your Majesty! Ten thousand!" cried Fred. "Ten thousand are coming to us!"

"Business?" Cecil asked, trying his best to keep calm.

"No, no, come and live! We've immigrated here!" Fred shouted more and more excitedly, "They are willing to come!"

The first reaction in Cecil's mind: Ten thousand spies from Tambunita?

Of course, these are just some worries. Thinking about it, I know that this is impossible. However, it is too ridiculous to send two people to attract 1 people, right?

It was Richard who was more calm, and said: "Actually, we haven't counted [-], but the rough statistics are almost the same, and it may be a few hundred people." He sighed, "Your Majesty, this is actually not Not our efforts, mostly...Tambunita is completely left alone."

Speaking of this, Fred, who was originally from Tambunita, lost his excitement, and wriggled his lower lip with a gloomy expression, as if he had a breath stuck in his chest, and finally spat it out before saying: "Princess They are frantically wooing citizens, but they are wary of each other. When I returned home... when I originally lived in the city, the city defense didn't recognize me at all. They insisted on admitting that I was a spy and said that I belonged to the seventh princess. Know who the Seventh Princess is!"

Fred was swearing, obviously very angry, Cecil couldn't laugh or cry and said: "How do you usually solve the situation in Tambunita?"

"Of course the male with the closest blood relationship to Foster III will inherit!" Fred immediately said, very dissatisfied, "I don't know who instilled the concept in those princesses, any woman can be king , You have to fight for what you want, I'm bah! Heresy!"

Cecil lowered his head in embarrassment. He probably told Foster III about the princesses' "fallacies". Princesses come out...

"If everyone agrees that this should be the solution, why doesn't anyone do it?" Cecil wondered, "The princesses' approach doesn't seem very popular, and people don't agree with it, so their soldiers and mages are all Where did it come from?"

Speaking of this, Fred became even angrier: "Husbands of the princesses, those dukes, earls, and even a viscount all want to let their sons sit on the throne! How could their friends and relatives not want to? Foster III obviously still has a nephew, and the prince also has a pregnant wife, all disappeared overnight!"

Well, this is also one of the "tricks" that Cecil told Foster III, using the throne to hang the appetite of these "feudal landowners", and then let them kill themselves and so on.

If someone asks Cecil if he is sure about doing this, he will make a face and say irresponsibly, "I am sure about it." Isn't this a matter of course? He has never done any work in this area. The only political struggle The experience comes from "Game of Thrones". It is too much to expect a person who has changed jobs so many times and has never been able to integrate into the work to engage in political struggles, but well, it is someone else's country anyway, does he care about success?

Of course I don't care...

Cecil really didn't expect that such nonsense would cause such a large-scale chaos. Seeing that Tambuneta was gone forever, he was a little panicked.

"Why are there so many people?" Cecil asked, "How many places have you traveled?"

"I just left the city and Algis I used to." Fred said, "I went to find my son, he is now a member of the Three Princess Guards, and through him we know that many people are against Tambuny. The towers lost confidence and they wanted to leave."

The timing for Fred to find his eldest son was perfect, as if it was fate. Due to the arrival of the drought, the three princesses who had mastered Algiers were almost in desperation. She was just an ordinary woman, neither advanced magic aptitude nor Special ability, her biggest advantage is that she is very popular with Foster III, and married a powerful duke, who also controls the city defense system of Algiers.

At present, except for the Might and Magic Gate, the external traffic is completely cut off in Algis. Fred and Richard arrived in Algis first, and they were arrested as soon as they got out of the Might and Magic Gate. It is suspected that the ghost knows which princess In the end, Fred was released because of his elder son's relationship.

The eldest son was promoted, but Yarji, who was short of food, and the harsh work atmosphere put him under a lot of pressure, and he also complained about his father's arrival.

"Father, what are you doing in Algis now? I don't have any extra food to help you!" The eldest son said angrily.

Fred opened his mouth to defend himself, but after thinking about it, he closed it. He silently took out food from the magic space bag he carried with him. Before he came, he considered the situation of Tambunita and stored a lot of food. There is even ice cream, anyway, the time in the space bag does not flow.

Food is the best illustration, and the eldest son's eyes were straight at that time.

Fred and his son chatted all night. He didn't dare to reveal too much about the life in the Middle Kingdom. He only said that it was a place of abundance and peace, where everyone could live a very easy life, and there was no need for advanced magical aptitudes. , as long as you have a good body, even women and children can make a lot of money, and the tax is low, and the rule of law is clear!

Cecil grinned uncomfortably when he heard this statement. He felt that the Middle Kingdom, which was full of shortcomings, became a perfect country in Fred's mouth. It can only be said that the requirements of ordinary people in this world are too low... …

The process of persuading the eldest son went smoothly, and when he started to prepare to leave, his colleagues who were asked to beware of "other princess spies" naturally found out.

"It was scary at the time. We thought he was going to inform us!" Richard said with a frightened expression on his face, "We were all ready to flee overnight."

"It turned out that he came in the middle of the night, alone, and asked if we could take them with us." Fred said with pride in his tone, "He heard that the Middle Kingdom is a country of dreams, as long as you go there, you can achieve anything. People's dreams, even healing spells say so!"

Just like this, it was passed on to ten or ten to a hundred. As time went by, more and more people joined the ranks of fleeing. In the end, it was no longer who was willing to leave, but who was unwilling to leave.

"We took away ninety percent of the city defense team in Algis!" Fred said proudly, "All gone!"

Cecil asked dumbfounded: "You, if you go like this... how do you go? There are too many people?"

"They opened the city gate and left." Richard laughed. "On the first day, a group of people left, and on the second day, that group of people said they would go to find out why those people didn't come back. The same is true for the third time. There is nothing you can do if you enter the city, the biggest armed force in Yarji is the city defense team!"

"The last day is no longer sneaking away, no one is guarding the city gate, and the civilians have started to flee." Fred said excitedly, "Your Majesty, do you know? After last year's plague and this year's drought, the royal family did nothing In addition to closing the city gates and arranging for the nobles, even the lower nobles have been forgotten!"

The more Cecil heard it, the more uncomfortable he raised his hand to stop Fred from expressing his merits, and said, "Wait a minute, you mean, you opened the city gate of Algiers and let the civilians run away? "

"Yes, they can't go through the Might and Magic Gate. We specially rented the Griffin and flew to Los Angeles to walk through the Might and Magic Gate. Those who have money also go the same way. Those who don't have money have to go to the port and take a boat." Richard He said, "By the way, hurry up and send more boats. The boats you allocated to us are not enough to carry so many people, and there is still food! Yes, bring more food!"

"Wait a minute, do those princesses know that these people are coming to my place?" Up to this point, Cecil was still hopeful, hoping that those people would only come quietly.

"Maybe I didn't know at first, but then there were too many people." Richard rubbed his nose embarrassedly, "I guess...it's impossible not to know."

Cecil: "..."
