Chapter 24 The Incomplete Figure
Smoked cod shreds, rice, eggs, butter, curry, and some vegetables, mixed together, it became a fish ball risotto.
In memory, the buffet breakfast of Fluorescent Castle has never been missing fish ball risotto.
"Isn't it a kind of happiness to like fish ball risotto." Russell ate barbecue and fried eggs with jam, occasionally took a bite of the risotto in the bowl, and sighed boredly, "At least I can enjoy happiness every day, unlike me, who wants to eat a bite of stir-fried vegetables but can't."
The good mood was reduced because of a bite of fish ball risotto, but Russell was still in a good mood because Xiao Menglong was lost and found.
It also means that there will be a steady stream of elves in the future.
After breakfast.
Russell said goodbye to his parents, and then not surprisingly received a batch of material sponsorship, not much, only three carriages.
Counting the five carriages of materials given by the baron before, he has received eight carriages of materials sponsored by his parents.
"Father, mother, thank you for your generous gift. I will work harder to manage the Black-waisted Snake Manor, and train a knight team as soon as possible to protect the safety of the Valley of the Light, and go to the snowfield to kill the snow ghosts, and do my part for the restoration of mankind!"
The snow demon froze the entire Dragon Sleeping Continent.
But when the dragon woke up, humans began to control the dragon, launched a counterattack against the snow demon, and restored the rule of the once warm continent.
Meryl was proud of her son's ambition: "The dragon is watching you, Russell."
The baron waved his hand: "Go back to the fiefdom quickly. If you come a few more times, the Fluorescent Castle will be moved to the Black-waisted Snake Manor by you."
Russell laughed: "This is because of your generosity, father."
"Russell, when will you take me to the Black-waisted Snake Manor to play?" Lola covered her mouth and asked dissatisfiedly.
"I will take you there when I have time!"
Rubbing his sister's head, Russell immediately got on the horse and galloped to his territory with three carriages of supplies.
It was a smooth journey, and Lord Ross did not come to provoke.
When the carriage stopped at the gate of the manor, Charles, who was supervising the construction of the windmill, had already come on horseback.
"Haha, I knew that the Baron loved you very much. As long as you show up with the birch worm, you will definitely get a generous gift."
"It's a pity that such days can't come often." Russell replied.
"Who knows, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, you can pick up another elf worm, it's hard to say."
"I hope so."
The two walked into the manor courtyard one after the other.
Charles said naggingly: "The building materials of the windmill are easy to get stones. Just go to the Bend Blade Mountain to chisel a few pieces, but wood is a bit difficult. The birch forest must not be cut down, but there are no other trees in the territory."
"Even if there are, they cannot be cut down, especially the trees that serve as the boundary of the field ridges, they must be properly protected." Russell said.
"Then we can only go to the town to buy wood now."
"Go to Falcon Manor to buy it. I remember that Lord Atlas likes to plant trees the most. A lot of wood in Fluorescent Castle was bought from Falcon Manor."
Lord Atlas is one of the vassals of Baron Youguang. He is enfeoffed in Falcon Manor at the foot of Sharp Knife Mountain on the east side of Youguang Valley.
As one of the Baron's right-hand men, Atlas is also a fantasy beast knight. When he was a child, he taught Russell boxing and kicking for a few days.
Now Russell just took the opportunity to build a good relationship with Atlas so that he can help each other when he goes to the snowfield to hunt ghosts in the future: "Teacher Charles, I will write a letter and you can send it to Falcon Manor and buy enough wood from there."
"Okay, I'm willing to serve."
Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, but it suddenly started to drizzle in the afternoon.
The construction of the windmill mill had to be stopped. Charles was not in a hurry to buy wood. He hid in the manor villa with Russell and tasted black pearl wine.
Eric was unwilling to stay idle: "Sir, I will take Tom and the others to patrol the border."
"Are we still going out for patrol in this weather?"
"The more this kind of weather, the more we need to pay attention to danger. Once the serfs are in danger, they may not even be able to issue a warning."
Eric is dedicated to his work, so Russell will naturally not stop him.
"Put on your raincoat before you go."
"Yes."
The horse's hooves stepped on the wet charcoal trail and went away.
Charles looked out from the upstairs window and sighed: "The arrival of this rain means that the ice age has completely subsided, and the Youguang River is going to rise."
"I wanted to keep watch for the Cordyceps." Russell was a little unhappy.
Xiao Menglong returned, and he originally planned to camp outside for several consecutive nights to search for all the possible elf insects around the territory.
Now it can only be put on hold.
When it was night, the rain not only did not stop, but it got heavier. Russell, who could not camp in the wild, could only hide in his bedroom and enjoy the comfortable and warm big bed.
"Gah!"
In the dark dream, Xiao Menglong arrived as promised.
This made Russell more certain that Xiao Menglong's absence for the previous three days was because he had to rest because of a mouthful of dragon flame that seriously damaged his vitality.
Now that he has rested well, he will naturally report on time every day.
"Let's go, let's take off and see if we can find new gains near the manor villa." Russell rode on Xiao Menglong and strolled around the manor villa, looking at the Youguang River that was beginning to rise, and then flying to a high place and swooping down.
Without any new discoveries, they naturally focused on playing.
"Xue Gao, what do you think we should do to expand the dark dream, so that I can know everything about the territory even when I sleep at home."
"Ha ha." Xiao Menglong was just playing.
Russell could only play the lute to a cow.
However, at this moment, he suddenly found that a dim and incomplete figure rushed in from the border of the dark dream, emitting a very weak blue glow.
"Well, there is someone!" Russell immediately rode Xiao Menglong and flew towards the glowing figure. He found that the figure was sneaking close to the manor courtyard, and it did not belong to Eric, Charles and others, but a stranger.
"There is fighting spirit, this is a knight. Judging from the degree of glow and the outline, it should be a knight in armor!"
Russell quickly judged the level of the person.
The figure only glowed in the torso and hands, and the light of the legs could not be seen. This is a very typical feature of the armored knight. Because all the meridians have not been opened yet, the fighting spirit cannot circulate to the legs, so it will naturally not glow.
He rode Xiao Menglong and flew directly to the incomplete figure.
Looking at the figure who kept looking back, he took advantage of the rain to quietly touch the outer wall of the manor, and then climbed to the second floor with his hands and feet.
"Damn it!"
Russell frowned: "Who on earth actually touched my manor! Could it be someone from the Xiangshui River Cave?"
A knight in armor is definitely a big shot for the free people in the cave.
Without waiting for Russell to think deeply.
Little Dream Dragon opened his mouth: "Ga."
It was tired, so it didn't plan to continue to maintain the dark dream and went back.
"Don't... Ice cream, think of a way to wake me up, someone is plotting against me now!" Russell quickly asked for help.
However, Xiao Menglong didn't understand at all, threw him down, and then flapped his wings and disappeared around the corner.
"Fuck!"
"Retarded Ice Cream!"
Russell had no choice but to loudly hint to himself at the moment when the dark dream collapsed: "Wake up, wake up, someone is trying to assassinate me!"
