Throne of Vientiane Civilization

In the Population Registration Department, although the early training has made the first batch of prairie elves with three-star spirit and the 'Eye of Insight' given by him already have very good work ability, they cannot withstand the reality of this wave of population growth. It's ruthless.

This expedition, accompanied by their attacks on cities and villages, and the recruitment of people, directly caused their internal population in the Great Zhou Dynasty to increase by 31,000 in just one year.

Think about it, can this workload not be huge?

The power of Zhou Xu's mantra was so depleted at first that he had to rest for ten days and a half before he could fully recover.

The members of the Population Registration Department are not that extreme, but sometimes the power of the mantra is consumed a little too much. They work for one day and have to take four or five days off.

I did nothing for the first three days, just stayed at home and slept. Then I went out for a walk for a day or two to adjust my mood, muster up the courage, and go back to work.

After all, every time when the power of the mantra is seriously depleted, they try to insert steel needles into their brains, and from time to time they feel like something is messing with their brains, which is not a good feeling at all.

For this matter, the Population Registration Department has applied several times for additional manpower.

In order to solve this urgent need, Zhou Xu turned around and captured Teacher Wang and made him a young man.

But this time there were too many people, and Teacher Wang couldn't hold it anymore. It was indeed necessary to increase the manpower.

In this way, Zhou Xu is already thinking about this matter, and the grassland elf who is born with three-star spiritual attributes is undoubtedly the best choice.

In addition, with the increase in territory, the size of their army in the Great Zhou Dynasty will naturally increase accordingly. Accordingly, the demand for military equipment will also increase exponentially compared to before. Therefore, judging from this momentum, the enchantment The size of the department will definitely grow too!

On this side, Zhou Xu was thinking about it, and finally came up with Zhou Xu's future development plan. This was also an old problem of his. If he wasn't careful, he would think a lot, and at the same time, he would think very far.

Pulling back his thoughts, Hilke and his team's excellent performance is a good thing for Zhou Xu.

Otherwise, according to the efficiency of a human operator, if he wants to take a hot air balloon, he may have to wait another month, or even two months, which is a bit too slow for him.

And based on Silk's efficiency, it is estimated that after a few more days of training, they will be able to officially take up their posts as hot air balloon operators.

By then, he will be able to take a hot air balloon, fly directly over the mountainous area, return to Black Moon Village with higher efficiency, and make arrangements for the subsequent development plans in the New World.

As for Liu De who has not been solved yet, there is nothing to be afraid of.

In Zhou Xu's view, that was just a small character worth mentioning.

Although when he provoked civil strife on the other side, the other side was lucky enough to gather the rebels and rise up, and even occupied two cities and proclaimed himself king.

But now, in this area of ​​the New World, except for Anling City and Xishan City, the other five cities have been included in their territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they have successfully formed a peripheral siege for Anling City and Xishan City. By the way, This also cuts off all access to resources around the opponent.

To put it simply, these two cities have been isolated. With the lack of resources and the inability to form an effective development cycle, if Liu De engages in internal development, he will collapse in no more than half a year at most.

When the time comes, the people under his rule will no longer be able to live a better life, and they will surely complain. He will just take advantage of the situation and send troops to rescue the people.

And if the other party chooses to go to extremes, actively provoke a war, and try to extend its life by plundering surrounding resources and territories, then things will be even simpler.

You made the first move, and I defended myself and counterattacked. Is there anything wrong with that?

Regarding this Liu De, although the two have not officially met each other, Zhou Xu has already clearly arranged for him.

"Your Majesty, as of now, there is no problem with the normal flight of the hot air balloon, but if you want to fly over the mountainous areas, fuel may be a problem. How about trying to increase the scale of the hot air balloon and improve its transportation capacity? "

On a new day, Zhuang Mengdie, who had basically obtained the test results, was reporting the matter to Zhou Xu.

After listening to the report, Zhou Xu was thoughtful.

"I should be able to solve this problem and take the time to do a test."

"yes."

In the next few days, just as he expected, Hilke and the others were able to control the hot air balloon quite skillfully.

After all, the key to controlling a hot air balloon is to understand the changes in wind direction and weather. The prairie elves are extremely talented in this area, which allows them to get twice the result with half the effort.

During this period, on the edge of the world, as time passed, the energy channel connecting the worlds on both sides opened. A group of people headed by Zhou Xu rushed into the energy channel with the hot air balloon that had been dismantled into parts.

Along with the change of heaven and earth, Zhou Xu, who has not been back for almost a year since he went to the new world, the first thing he felt was cold!

It is almost early spring now. Over in Huangsha City, the daytime temperature is estimated to be over ten degrees. But after arriving here, because this border area is on the top of a mountain and the altitude is relatively high, Because, this season is still cool, and it feels like the temperature has suddenly dropped by seven or eight degrees.

After breathing out a breath of hot air, there was no need to rest. After handing the things they brought back to the garrison camp here, the security team headed by Silk immediately began to assemble the hot air balloon.

It is disassembled for portability, and the assembly process is very simple, just like putting together large building blocks. It is done easily and in just a few clicks.

The connection structure was made by Zhuang Mengdie, and there is absolutely no problem with its firmness.

Out of caution, Silk and the others confirmed it again. After confirming that it was correct, Zhou Xu officially boarded the hot air balloon.

In the previous test, he had already taken a hot air balloon ride with Silk and the others, and successfully completed the test, which made Zhou Xu very calm at this time.

With the parachute on his back, Zhou Xu steadily stepped onto the bamboo basket of the hot air balloon.

Apart from himself, there were only two prairie elves on the hot air balloon, including Silk.

Holding the handle inside the bamboo basket that was used to stabilize his body, Zhou Xu took the initiative to sit down. After all, there would still be some bumps when taking off.

During this period, Hilke and his team's skillful operating techniques made people feel at ease. With a swaying motion, the hot air balloon rose steadily into the air.

At this time, Silke's voice rang...

"Your Majesty, we are beginning to increase our altitude."

"..."

Silk said this with a hint of eagerness in his voice.

But Zhou Xu's body muscles tightened unconsciously.

Theoretically, the higher the altitude, the stronger the wind.

As long as the wind is strong enough, the speed of a hot air balloon can even reach more than 100 kilometers per hour.

Just like some people are addicted to racing, Hilke and others have recently become addicted to driving hot air balloons.

Before this, with Zhou Xu's cooperation, Silk and the others had tried flying a hot air balloon from Black Rock City to Huangsha City, and then from Huangsha City back to Black Rock City. This gave them confidence at this time Full.

But Zhou Xu still felt that safety came first and found a suitable excuse for himself.

"The distance between these mountainous areas is further than the previous trip from Black Rock City to Huangsha City. In order to avoid accidents, it is better not to go too fast and be a little safer."

"clear!"

After receiving Silk's reply, Zhou Xu raised his hand and placed it on the hot air balloon, and the mysterious mantra characters came out of his mouth one by one...
