Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

Chapter 1370 Inspection

While many officials in Heishui City were making various speculations, Li Cha was busy shuttling around Shalin.

Speaking of which, this is no small project.

The area of ​​the sand forest is relatively large. It is located in the northernmost part of the former Sika Kingdom, adjacent to the barren northern wilderness, and is a relatively long and narrow area.

And the reason why this place is called Sarin is related to a small country that perished.

Regarding the story of this small country, Richard had heard it from Sherlock when he was on the east coast, and recently he got a more detailed understanding:

The name of the small country is Shalin. It is located in the gap between Xika and Beihuang. Because the land is barren, the rainfall is scarce, and there are no special products, it is very poor. The total population of the whole country is only a few hundred thousand people.

The king of a country is said to be the king of a country, but in fact, he is not as many as the lord of a medium-sized city in the Soma Alliance or the Kingdom of Sika.

Because of this, the Kingdom of Sika did not have much interest in annexing it, allowing the small country of Sarin to exist for many years.

But unfortunately, the Kingdom of Sika was not annexed, but Sharin encountered a natural disaster. A plague broke out inexplicably a few years ago.

The plague spread extremely quickly, and within a few days, tens of thousands of people were infected. The infected person has blisters all over the body, the itching is unbearable, and he can't help scratching with his hands until the blisters are broken and disgusting pus flows out. Although this is not fatal, it has unbearable pain.

Moreover, King Sharin's favorite daughter, Princess Sharin, was also infected with the plague.

The king can ignore the suffering of the common people, but not his own daughter. For this reason, King Sharin almost emptied the treasury, and invited a wizard who was proficient in pharmacy from nowhere to try to prepare an antidote to treat Princess Sharin.

This wizard has some skills, and it took a week to concoct the antidote. As long as the princess drinks the antidote, the disease can be cured, and the antidote can be prepared in large quantities and spread to the lower levels, thereby solving the plague of the entire Sharin Kingdom.

But the problem is that this wizard is too capable - the configuration of the antidote is very powerful, and the configuration of the poison is even more powerful.

Just before the wizard was about to drink the antidote for the princess, he accidentally broke a bottle of potion that failed to be configured.

The components of the medicine floated out along the open window, and under the action of the wind, spread to a vast area of ​​the sa forest.

This time, a monster more terrifying than the plague itself was released. The ingredients in the potion had undergone unknown changes in the outside world, causing those who touched it to die with bulging eyes and purple bodies.

In just a few days, tens of thousands of lives were taken away from the capital of Sharin, and the residents of Sharin in other places also died in succession in the following days.

Sharin then perished, and the area he occupied naturally became part of the Sika Kingdom. However, not many people dared to move to this "poisonous land", so it was very sparsely populated.

The Kingdom of Sika really looked down on Shalin, a place with hidden dangers, and let it sit idle until war broke out with the Soma Alliance.

The specifics of the war need not be repeated. In short, the result is that Sika cede territory and seek peace.

The original Shalin Kingdom and a large area nearby were occupied by the Soma Alliance and set up as a special garrison area.

Originally, the name of this special garrison area was planned to be called "Warkworth".

It means the northernmost land. But Sarin's reputation is too loud. Not long after the disaster of destroying the country, everyone remembers it deeply, so they finally named this place "Sarin".

Speaking of which, this "sa forest" is not exactly the same as that "sa forest", and the area has expanded dozens of times.

But then again, even if the area is expanded dozens of times, because most of the land is barren, lacks precipitation, and is covered with mountains and inconvenient transportation, it is still not a good place—Oscar was right at the time, this fief It has obviously been replaced. Logically speaking, Li Cha shouldn't get such a poor fief due to his achievements in the war.

However, Li Cha didn't care too much. In his opinion, the land conditions are indeed a bit poor, but the geographical location is still good: because it is close to the Northern Wilderness, it is possible to expand outward; the territory is mountainous, which can effectively prevent foreign attacks. It is a relatively closed and safe development base.

As for how to make this base develop, he already has some ideas, and what he has to do now is to personally understand all aspects of the situation.

He doesn't like to do these things very much, after all, they are a bit cumbersome. But I also know that even if I don’t like it, I have to do it—at least I have to do it well in the early stage, so that I can devote myself to research with peace of mind.

As for how to deal with the later work, he has another way.

...

noon.

On a field somewhere in Shalin, Li Cha walked in it,

After walking for a while, he stopped, looked around, and nodded slightly.

As if he had identified something, Li Cha waved his hand, and dozens of glass tubes flew out of his sleeves, floating in front of him.

Then the ground in front of it cracked, and the soil of different depths inside flew out by itself under the control of extraordinary power, and fell into the glass tube suspended in front of him.

Li Cha put the corks on the glass tubes, labeled them, wrote the words, and put them back into the space iron ring. After doing this, without saying anything, I walked deeper into the field and continued to take samples.

In this way, after a busy afternoon, Li Cha traveled through several small towns and towns in the sand forest, and obtained samples including but not limited to soil, air, surface water, groundwater, and crops.

It also went deep into the old land of the former Sharin Kingdom, carefully explored and understood whether there were any toxins or other hidden dangers left after the disaster of destroying the country.

In this way, until the evening, Li Cha finally stopped temporarily, appeared in a small town called "Takri", and walked into a tavern.

Li Cha asked for a simple meal, and while eating, he heard the conversations of various people in the tavern - the content of the conversation was full of bragging and rumors, it was hard to believe it completely, but he could understand some public opinions from the side .

For example, if most people are discussing the stories of bards and the styles of fashionable clothes, it can mean that life must be going well, and the people of the lower classes are more satisfied with their current lives.

On the contrary, if most of them are complaining that life is hard, they can't live on, and they are discussing where to get some quick money, then it can be sure that the ruler must not be very good, and sooner or later there will be trouble in this area.

Li Cha could hear right now that the three businessmen at the table were complaining bitterly about being robbed by bandits.

"Hey, it's really unlucky. I prepared eight carriages last month. I wanted to make a lot of money. But not long after I left the town, I met a group of thieves. In order to save my life, I obediently sent out four carriages. Now it’s all right, don’t say you’ve made a lot of money, it’s hard not to lose money.”

"You can be lucky. Ten days ago, all the goods in my five carriages were snatched away by the thieves. Not even a hair was left behind. Am I still sitting here drinking with you?"

"If you want me to tell you, you should all be thankful. A week ago, Lao Jieba personally escorted the convoy to the east to do business, and met a group of thieves who wanted to be tough. In the end, the goods were not kept, and their heads were cut off. That's miserable... ..."

Li Cha listened to these quietly until he finished his food.

He got up and took a deep look at the person sitting next to him, then walked out the door thoughtfully, and walked into the darkness.
