A strange world

Chapter 182 Chapter 35. Whose dream will we be?

"How did you get here?"

The crisp words that suddenly sounded were like a hand, pulling Annan out of the sticky mire. He saw a girl of thirteen or fourteen standing in front of the bookshelf, her clear eyes shining with curiosity and inquiry.

Is there anyone in Breeze City who doesn’t know me?

"I'm looking around. My name is Annan."

"Fudot." The girl raised her chin and looked at Annan's cheek: "Are you new here? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"This is my first time here," Annan said.

Another blizzard seemed to be approaching, and the flames of oil lamps and candles were burning around the library.

"I am the administrator of the lower grade. What do you want to read? "Weird Illustrated Book" or "Herb Identification" or "Elementary Alchemy Guide"?"

Fudot mentioned several book titles related to race and alchemy. Annan tentatively said: "I prefer stories..."

"I thought your knowledge would be as good as your appearance." The girl said with some contempt, pointed to the corner, ignored Annan, and left the bookshelf.

As the girl left, the library became bright again.

Annan put down the strange "The Sunken Place" and headed in the direction pointed by the girl - that was the library exit.

Well, I did not come to the library with the intention of learning knowledge.

Annan found another librarian, but during the chat, he learned that there was no librarian named Fudote, and there was no girl of twelve or thirteen years old.

…

In the Mage Tower, Annan recounted previous experiences to Michael and remembered the banned books in Mr. Victor's basement: "Mr. Victor told me that some knowledge itself is power."

"It's almost the same. The better the talent, the easier it is to perceive. Do you remember the 'Book of Filth'? It's also a kind of thing."

As for whether the story is true or false...

"Who knows?" Michael said nonchalantly. "Just like our dreams may be stories from the past that will happen sooner or later in the future, our stories may also be other people's dreams."

Annan agrees with this idea and activates the magic ring in Michael's room.

A large fire element appeared in response to the request. Annan listened carefully. The sounds of the burning flames did indeed form flame-related nouns such as "burning", "burning", "igniting" and "blazing", but there was no complete sentence. Even if I don’t know the answer, I won’t answer.

Annan attempts to imitate the elemental language. When the fire element says hot, he also says hot; when the fire element says burning, he also says burning. Nothing happened except making the already unstable fire element more restless.

"Will there be any abnormalities when the elements gather?"

"Except the gathering of elements makes the gathering of elements."

The meaning of this nonsense is that the gathering of elemental creatures will cause the elements in the area to converge, making it easier to release similar magic, as well as projecting some creatures from the elemental plane.

In any case, the elements didn’t say it was okay.

The Elemental Legion program continues.

Finally, Annan went to the scavenger headquarters and told the centurion that Xingyue Bay needed scavengers.

"Other nobles are worried that the scavengers will interfere too much in the territory, but you welcome us instead?" the centurion said playfully.

"Why not welcome?"

The centurion agreed to apply for Annan, and Annan completed all the matters for this trip to Breeze City in one morning.

Returning to the manor, the ice that had frozen Della had not melted. It seemed that the temperature had returned to normal. Della's skin color was no longer pale and had returned to a slightly darker color.

Annan wrote down what happened in the past few days and when she woke up to find the ogre, and put it on the desk, so that she would not wake up before she returned to Xingyue Bay and not know what happened, and then asked the maids to Find a time to check on Della's condition, Della continues to "hibernate", packs the gifts for the ogre and comes to the warehouse.

"This is the gift I prepared for you, a whole piece of human-shaped candy, which allows you to enjoy the dual pleasure of eating people and sweets at the same time."

This sentence, which sounded like an advertisement, inspired Annan. He recorded it in his notes and added an advertisement after "Make more movies."

The ogre was quite satisfied. After bidding farewell to Olmedo, the busy and young lord set off on his return journey.

…

There are new changes in Xingyue Bay every day, either a complete house or a straight road.

The price is that Xingyue Bay, which was originally wealthy, suddenly faces a financial crisis.

At this time, outside the log house, Francois and Ingrid were arguing, and a soldier was sneaking around in the distance.

"What if we don't pay the residents salaries for the time being? They should be able to understand..."

"They're going to riot."

"It's impossible. The citizens of other territories don't even talk about their salaries. It's hard to even have enough to eat..."

They think well. Francois said good things, Ingrid said bad things, and the soldiers spread the news, and the people would take the initiative to propose canceling their salaries-but Annan's appearance disrupted the arrangement.

"Salaries must continue to be paid."

"You are such a good lord..." Francois sighed helplessly.

What Annan thought was that instead of discussing how to divide the cake, it would be better to make the cake bigger.

…

The cold and biting sea breeze penetrated directly into his collar.

The harsh winter completely froze the bay. Annan stood on the beach and watched the knights poking around the bay with their spears.

The result of the survey is that there are a wide variety of fish under the ice. They can cut the ice and fish now, but this will only partially alleviate the problem. The food consumption in Xingyue Bay will not be truly relieved until spring.

Annan's "Lord's Mansion" was temporarily moved to a single-family house next to a low hill. The bedroom on the second floor was where Della was placed. He usually worked on the first floor and dealt with some trivial matters.

For example, the southern part is planned as a factory area, where spinning mills and other future factories will be located.

For example, there are no fishermen in Xingyue Bay who can weave fishing nets and catch fish? Then grab it from Breeze City... please come.

For example, if some of the people in the territory get sick, then a "witch doctor" is hired from Breeze City.

Xingyue Bay is becoming more and more prosperous, and its finances are becoming increasingly depleted.

After Ingrid warned her again, Annan said, "I'll figure it out."

Everyone has no doubt about him. "The Fall of the Mage's Tower" made more than 10,000 gold coins, and it seemed that it would not be difficult to make a few thousand gold coins by shooting a magic video - but Annan knew that this would not work. In fact, I never got tired of watching "The Fall of the Mage Tower". For example, the residents of Xingyue Bay who watched it more than 60 times never got tired of it. What really made "The Fall of the Mage Tower" feel cold was this cold winter.

A silver coin means half a month's worth of firewood or ten pounds of bread. In other seasons, even a week of hard work can earn this kind of money, but in the dead of winter, many people cannot afford it.

"Countless nobles in Breeze City are proud to invite you. You can come and go between the banquet rooms like a noble lady." Francois deliberately suggested.

The druid has not returned yet, and the frost giant camp is still 160 miles away, but there is something wrong with the magic ring.

Murat gets the magic ring, but a group of men suddenly appear to hunt him down.
