A rare vacation is definitely a must. Even Onyxia, who has always been salty, raised her hand to sign up without hesitation, let alone Stella Gosa and Valeera.

But before going on vacation, Sharlayan still needs to check the management of the territory.

Under the training of Valeera and Stella Gosa, the two capable secretary-generals, except for those important matters that must be handled by Sharlayan himself, the daily administration of the Marquis of Deep Shadow can be completely handed over to grassroots officials and Jointly managed by the secretariat.

Sharlayan went to the Shadowlands for more than half a year, and when he returned to Quel'Thalas, it was already January 2014 at the Black Gate, and he perfectly missed this year's New Year's celebration.

According to the regulations of Quel'Thalas, in addition to national statutory holidays, noble lords in various places can set up to three additional special holidays in their territories.

Of course, these festivals that are only specially organized locally must also be approved by the central government, and can only be held after obtaining permission.

This regulation is to prevent some lords from making messy festivals for their own selfish desires.

In the past, when there were no approval requirements, a certain lecherous lord actually held a big festival in his own territory.

The content of the festival... I understand everything.

This incident made Quel'Thalas, who prides himself on civilization and progress, lose a lot of face internationally.

At that time, the Sun King Anasteri, driven by the turbulent public opinion, forcefully deprived the title of the nobleman, forcing him to pass the title to other members of the family, and he was thrown into the prison to play with the strong prisoners. Pick up soap game.

Sarlayan had heard about it when he was a child, that the nobleman who was deprived of his title died in prison in the end, and his family knew how to remove this strange creature from the genealogy, obviously they couldn't afford to lose this person.

The New Year's Celebration is one of Quel'Thalas' official festivals.

In addition to this, there are also the National Founding Celebration in Spring (also known as Dath'Remar's Birthday Festival), the Harvest Festival in Autumn, the Midsummer Fire Festival in Summer, and the Winter Veil Festival in Winter, adding up to a total of 5 official festivals.

Under the advice of the barrage, Sarlayan set up Valentine's Day, Wine Festival, and Children's Day in its own territory, three major festivals to harvest travelers' wallets, respectively covering the three groups with the strongest purchasing power: women, alcoholics, and children.

I have to say that although there are many sand sculptures who are crazy all day long in the barrage, there are indeed some relatively low-key bosses.

Under their planning, the development of the Marquis of Deep Shadow has been on the fast track in all aspects.

Unicorn Town, the capital of the territory, has replaced Taquilin as the most prosperous town in the south of Eversong Forest, not even one of them.

The saddest thing is that Taquilin, who used to be the leader, can't even get the second child now.

The total economic output value is second only to Unicorn Town, and it is a seaside resort town under the name of the Windrunner family. The former Tower of the Windrunner was renamed Binhai Town by Li Reisa a few years ago.

Since last year, people and officials in the Marquis of Deep Shadow have suggested that Unicorn Town should be upgraded to a city.

Since he was busy going to the Shadow Realm to deal with matters at that time, Sharlayan did not ask about this matter for the time being, but submitted the application for building the city to the Sun King and the cabinet for approval according to the procedure.

Returning to the lord's office after more than 8 months, Sharlayan heard about the follow-up of this matter from the secretaries immediately.

The result was not surprising. Kael'thas and the cabinet members approved Sharlayan's application without hesitation.

"Building a city..."

After handing over the permission issued by the Sun King to Valeera and Stellagosa, Salayan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"Regular cities are different from free-range villages and towns. According to regulations, city walls must be built for protection, but..."

Sharlayan had long been influenced by some members of the Fire God Cult in the barrage, and he believed that the city walls would not have much effect under the bombardment of large-scale magic cannons or artillery.

In the words of barrage...

My lord, times have changed.

Compared with the cumbersome and wasteful city walls, Sharlayan prefers to build invisible magic barriers to protect the city within the barrier like New Sandara.

This has the advantage of facilitating further expansion of the city.

The city wall can indeed protect the safety of residents in the city to a certain extent, but it will also limit the continued development of the city.

Everyone knows that the city wall surrounding the entire city cannot be built in a few years.

Even if there is an uninterrupted project using puppets to help, according to the time schedule submitted by the officials below, it can be shortened to one and a half years at most.

Given that the development speed of Unicorn City has not slowed down in the slightest, after one and a half years, the expansion of the urban area may have exceeded the scope of the original city wall, so what is the use of building this city wall?

In contrast, the use of magic barriers will be more flexible. You only need to increase the runes required to maintain the barriers according to the expansion of the city.

Moreover, this way of building the city is more in line with the characteristics of the Magic Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. With the unlimited energy provided by the Sunwell, Sharlayan will not be so stupid as not to take advantage of this advantage.

The plan to replace the city wall with a large-scale magic barrier covering the city has basically been passed in this way, and the next step is to start designing engineering drawings.

Sharlayan entrusted this task to Stellagosa, who was in charge of magic affairs in the territory.

After taking over the mission, Little Xingxing began to conceive a preliminary idea. In order to brainstorm, she planned to discuss with some big bosses after returning from vacation, including Julian's old friend, Archmage Melia who is resident in the Tower of Morning Star.

As long as the blueprints are designed in advance, all that needs to be done afterwards is to hire some mages who are free and lack money to invest in research projects. There is never a shortage of such people in Quel'Thalas.

The completion matters were preliminarily finalized, and before Sarlayan could ask the next question that piled up, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open with a loud bang.

"Sharlayan! And sisters! You are finally back!"

The voice was so familiar that Sharlayan knew who it was without looking up.

【Everyone! Be ready for impact! 】

"Hey~"

Putting down the document in his hand, Sharlayan stood up consciously, and while stabilizing his foot, he opened his arms to meet the impact.

"Whoa!"

Sure enough, a lump of human shells crashed into Sarayan's arms immediately.

Even though he had prepared in advance, Sharlayan was still knocked back a few steps, until Onyxia shot to support his back and finally stopped.

Stellagosa, who was holding the sketch of the enchantment and pondering on his own, raised his brows and snapped mercilessly, "How many times have I told you! Don't make such dangerous moves in the office!"

The little dwarf jumped into Salayan's arms and climbed onto Salayan's broad shoulders skillfully and sat down on the stick, with a slight grievance on his face.

This little guy is naturally Tina Gosa who was left in the territory to guard his home.

The Shadowland is full of dangers, and Sharlayan has no idea when he is active in the Shadowland. He must bring Onyxia with him just in case.

Although Tinagosa has made rapid progress, her strength is still far away from officially joining Sharlayan's team. Bringing this oil bottle is a troublesome burden, so she can only be left in Azeroth.

The truth is that, but people are emotional creatures after all, and it is impossible to rely entirely on rational thinking.

The brothers and sisters who had been doting on her had been away for more than half a year. No wonder little Tina missed her so much. As soon as she heard the news, she couldn't wait to run over and even gave Sarlayan a rocket-headed hammer.

In the beginning, Tinagosa, who was not under control, had fun everywhere in the territory, and would send to Dalaran to play with Jaina from time to time.

However, in order to join Sharlayan's happy family (fog), Jaina has been gritting her teeth to improve her knowledge and strength. It is impossible for Jaina to accompany Tinagosa all the time as she was a child.

Although Tina's mentality is immature, she is still a young dragon over a hundred years old, and she is still very sensible.

Jaina has always been working hard to improve herself. Affected by the introverted atmosphere, she can't let go and play crazy alone. Driven by Jaina, she also started to study hard.

More than 8 months passed, Salayan only came back when he had to shake people, and he came and went in a hurry, and did not meet Tinagosa.

Ever since she first left the Blue Wing Habitat with Sharlayan, little Tina has never been separated from her brothers and sisters for such a long time.

In the past one month or so, Tina's study efficiency has been seriously reduced, and she always looks absent-minded, which even drags down Gianna who is studying together.

Under Antonidas's suggestion of combining work and rest, Jaina, the juvenile volume king, finally put down her studies temporarily, and accompanied Tina back to Quel'Thalas, waiting patiently for the return of her brothers and sisters.

...Of course, Jaina's selfishness is unavoidable.

Tina misses her brothers and sisters, why doesn't Jaina miss her Prince Charming.

When Valeera saw Jaina's fluttering figure at the office door vigilantly, her brows twitched subconsciously.

‘Smelly girl, you really are haunted. '
