Pokemon from Scratch

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled the earth.

From time to time, a few Mukels could be seen flying by in the sky, and the setting sun reflected them dark red.

In the dilapidated and desolate slums of Lizhi City, a large open space has been cleared at this time.

A large number of carpenters were busy in the open space, building extremely simple wooden houses, densely packed together, like a beehive.

Mira was sitting at the wooden table under the window, earnestly correcting official documents. Her white hair with shawls was also dyed a touch of dark red under the setting sun. At this time, her delicate face was solemn and slightly sad.

Chief Knight Kevin, Finance Officer Jonson, Sheriff Richard. Lord's confidantes stood quietly aside.

Slowly putting down the official document in her hand, Mira sighed slowly.

"An eroded monster appeared near the Guixu cave."

Kevin frowned slightly. Although he had already expected this situation, he didn't expect it to come so soon.

Especially now that the heavy snow in winter has not yet fallen, if those magical beasts eroded by gray fog attack this winter, the damage to the villages outside Lizhi City will be devastating.

"It seems that we have to arrange for the evacuation of the people outside the Black Forest to Lizhi City in advance."

The knight fell silent. Although he really wanted to say that the Knights of Lizhi City would stop those monsters eroded by the gray fog in the Black Forest, but thinking of the scale of the winter beast swarm this time, his words became a single word when he reached his mouth. ,"good."

"How is the construction of the temporary residence for the slum residents?" Mira continued to ask.

Although she has long wanted to move all the citizens outside the city to Lizhi City, but in order to accommodate so many citizens, there must be enough land, houses, food and other daily consumption.

If all the citizens of Lizhi City were really moved to Lizhi City to spend the whole winter, the current Lizhi City would definitely be dragged down, so they could only move these villagers here when the beast horde appeared.

And this was also the main reason why she would issue a gag order. If some minor nobles, merchants or commoners in the territory knew about the beast tide returning to the ruins, it would definitely cause huge chaos.

Especially those villagers near the Black Forest who bear the brunt. In order to prepare for the upcoming battle, Lizhi City needs the taxes and fruits planted by these villagers, as well as other large strategic resources.

This time, it was Jonson, the financial officer, who answered the lord. He thought about his choice of words: "The houses for the temporary residence are already under construction, but it is still difficult to accommodate all the villagers."

"I suggest that the leaders in the northeast corner of the territory near the Guixu cave be moved to Lizhi City first. Even if the Guixu beast tide breaks out immediately, the leaders in other places still have enough time to migrate."

"Relocating in batches like this can also reduce the pressure on Lizhi City. In order to cope with this wave of beasts returning to the ruins, Lizhi City's finances are still very tight. It is impossible for Lizhi City to support the relocation of the people too early."

Hearing the financial officer's words, the ministers of Lizhi City in the field all nodded slightly at once, obviously agreeing with his suggestion very much.

"Besides, we still have to conceal the beast horde, just like it was five years ago." Sheriff Pi Richard said.

As a large number of citizens entered Lizhi City, it would definitely cause some chaos in the city, which in itself would greatly increase the difficulty of management for the magistrates.

If the citizens were to know about the beast tide returning to the ruins, it would spread fear in a large area, which would definitely further deepen the chaos in the city.

Jonson agreed with the sheriff's words, adding:

"Concealing the beast tide in Guixu is also of great benefit to the reconstruction after the beast tide. Otherwise, after learning of the danger of the Guixu cave, it is very likely that a large number of villagers will flee the territory and go to the nearby Meteorite City or Binhai City. "

Mira also nodded with a solemn face. For a lord, a large number of subjects are needed to develop the territory, and the loss of subjects is fatal to any lord, especially those free folk who have special skills.

"Then let's move the villagers from the northeast territory of Lizhi City to the city first. The Knights of Lizhi City, the Finance Department and the Magistrate's Court must make corresponding arrangements for this." Mira made the final decision.

Just as they continued to discuss the details of resettling the villagers, they suddenly heard an attendant knocking at the door.

"Deputy Captain Todd is back?" Hearing the attendant's report, several people present looked at each other with some doubts on their faces.

It stands to reason that the deputy leader Todd should now lead the Knights to hunt and kill the monsters in the territory. Has the hunting mission been completed so quickly? Maybe something happened during the hunt?

Standing at the gate of the castle, Captain Todd's mood was also very complicated at this time, and he was still thinking about the failure of the Knights to attack Chengguo Village this time.

Although Aiwen said that this time the matter was all on the nobles, and the Knights were cleared.

But after all, this involves the nobles. If these nobles have troubles in the Knights, the Knights themselves will be under great pressure.

In addition, if he reported this matter according to Aiwen and attributed all the responsibilities to those nobles, then whether he wanted to or not, the Knights would be regarded as standing on the opposite side of these nobles together with Chengguo Village.

He felt that Aiwen suppressed the large army of the Knights and asked him to take the Knights back to Lizhi City to report the situation. This was the meaning in itself, leaving him with no other way out.

While Captain Todd was still thinking about how to deal with this matter, he saw the servant knight in the castle coming quickly, saying that the lord wanted to meet him immediately.

Phew, let's wait until the lord handles everything. Todd breathed out a sigh of relief, and quickly walked towards the castle's study.

After entering the study, Todd immediately performed a standard knight salute, and then looked at Kevin, Jonson and others in the study, feeling a lot more relaxed in his heart, the lord's confidantes are all here, so It couldn't be better.

"Captain Todd, why are you back?" Mira asked Todd below with a solemn face.

Just now, he saw the uncontrollable fatigue on the knight's face, and the armor on his body was also very messy. Obviously, he came here without any rest along the way.
