Arcane Lord

————I’ll finish this chapter tomorrow. The fever is 38 and a half degrees, and I can’t hold on until I’m halfway through writing it~~

In the next few days, Shado and Saville worked overtime to complete and test the growth array on the first farm. After confirming that there were no obvious flaws, they notified Laiton that they could arrange for the residents to come over to cultivate the land.

The number of official settlers and preliminary settlers in the reclamation team was evenly divided. Under the leadership of several advanced working groups from the Territory Development Department, the work began in full swing.

Perhaps it was the intimidation of the portal, or the blazing heat of midsummer in the vast First Farm, but not a single one of the preparatory citizens was stabbed, and many even acted more seriously than the official citizens.

Xia Duo came over to watch for a while in the beginning. When the reclamation work was proceeding in an orderly manner, he called Shang Laiton to leave the first farm together.

While walking, Xia Duo gave instructions: "The growth cycle of the crops here at the First Farm is about a week. After this group of people, try to have all the preparatory citizens come here."

"I understand what your lord means, it is to promote the power of the territory to those who are preparing to join the territory!"

"Not only to show strength, but also to tell them that the territory has no shortage of food or land. As long as they abide by the territory's laws, a good life is yet to come!"

"Yes." Laidun responded thoughtfully.

Xia Duo doesn't care whether Laiton really understands it or not. As long as he can conscientiously implement his instructions at this stage, he will eventually be able to understand this through continued work in the future.

The worst thing is to change the consul, but Xia Duo really hopes that Laiton can continue to follow him.

As long as he does not fall behind, this territorial governor who is still a disciple of Glory may not be able to sit on an equal footing with the Lord of Glory and chat and laugh happily in the future.

…

When they arrived at the public floor, Sha Duo and Laiton separated. Seeing Laiton walking steadily towards the portal leading to the Territory Code Square, he just smiled and teleported to a control room in the central control area.

Niya was here to familiarize herself with the operation of the floating city. When she saw Xia Duo coming over, she suddenly became happy and said, "Everything has been taken care of over there? Can we set off?"

"Everything has been taken care of, but if we set off -" Xia Duo stared teasingly into Niya's eyes and teased, "Are you familiar with this?"

"Of course I've practiced it well, just look at it if you don't believe me!"

Niya was about to do the actual operation. Xia Duo quickly grabbed his wife's hand, "Have you forgotten yesterday's mistake? You almost wiped out my territory!"

Upon hearing this, Niya was immediately embarrassed, remembering the thrilling scene yesterday afternoon, when she was trying to move horizontally in the floating city, but somehow ended up in a free fall.

Of course Niya knew that underneath the floating city was the Daxia Territory and the Tower of Time. If this was not controlled, neither the Daxia Territory nor the Tower of Time, which had various protections, would be able to escape.

But the more worried he became, the more nervous he became. Finally, he caught a glimpse of the out-of-control recovery operation on the cover of the operation manual, and then he reacted and stabilized the floating city's fall.

Of course, from Sha Duo's perspective, all operations performed by Niya on the Floating City will be reported to him first, and only after his consent will they be handed over to the Floating City for execution.

Yesterday, when he received Niya's operation prompt at the First Farm, he was stunned for a few seconds. He really couldn't imagine how Niya could do such an operation.

In order to leave a deeper impression on Niya, he transferred the operation of making the floating city into free fall to the floating city intact.

Then he waited to see Niya's joke. As a result, Niya was in danger and took control of the floating city in time before he took over.

However, after that, Xia Duo still verbally prohibited Niya from directly controlling the floating city, saying that he would have to wait until he was confirmed to be qualified before the real novice could start.

"Aren't you here to watch? I don't do any dangerous operations. I just want the floating city to go around the territory. Just promise me!"

Although they are an old couple, Xia Duo still can't stand Nia's coquettishness. The main reason is that Nia is usually very dignified, occasionally shy, and almost never acts like a coquettish girl.

In other words, most women in this era do not have some of the characteristics that only existed in peaceful times like those in Sha Duo's hometown. Of course, the same goes for men. The most obvious one is that the apprentices of the Tower of Time almost never tire of learning.

Seized every opportunity I could.

As for now, Shado took Niya and sat down next to the operating console. There are no physical buttons for operating the floating city. It only limits the operating space and can only be done in the central control area. Some specific operations can only be done in specific control rooms. .

All control instructions for the floating city itself issued by non-central control areas, except for Xia Duo himself, are illegal.

The control room where Niya is currently located is of course one with higher authority, otherwise she would not be allowed to cause the floating city to fall into free fall.

"You do the work, I'll watch!"

Sha Duo said this, and then activated [Wide Area Detection] to transform the environment outside the floating city into the control room to enhance Niya's intuitive perception.

"Look at me!"

Niya clenched her fists, looking eager to try. Sha Duo just smiled and said nothing. He had received Niya's operating instructions and moved in a direction that indicated a 90-degree deflection to the direction of gravity.

Speaking of human language means moving southward.

Xia Duo originally thought that Niya would deliberately mess with him and start a free fall. If this was the case, then he would make mistakes and let the floating city lose control until it was close to the ground.

But since Niya was so serious, he wasn't going to do anything.

At present, some trivial matters in the territory and the floating city have been dealt with, and there is still some time at the end of the month. I have nothing to do, and practicing with Niya can also enhance the relationship between the couple.

…

outside world.

The floating city moving again will inevitably affect the hearts of the people below, but they now know that the round object above is also the territory of the lord. Even after yesterday's rapid descent, the people are still more curious about what that thing is. look.

Some people have gone through the portal to visit the floating city, but being inside and outside are completely different things.

In the control room, Xia Duo suddenly peeled off a small piece of magic reflecting the outside world below, placed it in the center of the control room, and amplified it.

It turned out to be a scene of several territorial citizens discussing loudly in the corner of Codex Square below. One of them speculated that the territory in the sky might be something similar to a flying disc.

But someone quickly retorted: "I've been there, the top and bottom are closed, there's no way it's a Frisbee!"

"You are talking nonsense! My son is Chef Cook's apprentice. He told me that the Lord's flying city is just an inverted plate! The people on it can still see the ground!"

Several people argued and argued, but they couldn't convince each other.

But Xia Duo, who saw this scene, knew that it was because the space transformation of the floating city was restored when the demiplanes were synchronized. After that, people who visited the floating city could no longer see the ground.
