Chapter 18: Territory Expansion
However, this problem did not bother Levi for long.
Under the watchful eyes of the bartender, Levi stumbled and got on the horse. He could see from the corner of his eye that the bartender wanted to lend a hand to help several times.
However, the moment he successfully got on the horse, Levi immediately felt a familiar feeling.
This feeling is similar to cooking.
When Levi wanted to act, the horse under his crotch seemed to be in tune with his mind. As soon as Levi thought about it, it would immediately take corresponding actions.
It was the system, the system was assisting the operation!
Levi could feel that this auxiliary process could still be interrupted at any time, and he could control it with his own real skills, but he would definitely not do so now.
With the assistance of the system, Levi suddenly felt confident.
The next morning, he rode a horse and led another horse to the farmer's house to get two chickens, put them in the cage and set off.
This time, the return journey was not shorter than the time when he came.
Although the horses ran faster than Levi, they needed to rest and feed hay after all.
Levi was also relieved when he saw the roadside fort.
There was no sign of tampering at the gate of the city, it seemed that this period of time was relatively peaceful.
After settling the two horses and two chickens for the time being, Levi returned to the castle and sorted out the supplies.
First of all, smelting.
Levi threw all the gold products bought by William into the anti-smelting furnace. He was lucky enough to get four gold ingots and one gold grain.
He immediately synthesized two golden carrots.
Levi ran to the horses and put the golden carrot next to the mouth of a horse.
The horse felt a little curious about the golden carrot, but did not eat it. Instead, he smelled it first. After confirming that it seemed to be just a carrot with a slightly different color, he bit it and started chewing it.
After a while, a few red hearts appeared on his head.
Levi did not waste time and immediately took out the second golden carrot to feed the other horse.
The two horses unconsciously leaned against each other.
After a while.
[Achievement: "Where do I come from?"]
Description: Successfully bred a pair of animals.
Looking again, a pony that looked a little dazed was squeezed between two big horses.
One of the big horses seemed to be frightened by the pony that suddenly appeared, and ran back several steps with eyes wide open.
However, Levi was very happy.
Good luck.
The pony's speed was 11 points, and it inherited the genes of the fastest horse.
Its health was 26 points.
While the two big horses looked at their children that appeared out of thin air in surprise, Levi took out two chickens and fed them wheat seeds.
After a while, a chick with eyes full of wisdom was born.
Looking at the pair of eyes full of wisdom, Levi couldn't help but sigh:
These stupid children all look the same.
At this moment, Levi had a pony in his left hand and a chicken in his right hand, and felt that his future was full of light.
He didn't care about resting that day, he directly picked up a pickaxe and cobblestones and started to demolish and build the city wall.
In just one day, the area of the territory was expanded by more than double.
By the way, new agricultural and animal husbandry planning areas were also made, as well as separate horse farms and horse troughs.
At this time, the territory of Roadside Castle was actually quite large, about tens of thousands of square meters. Anyone who saw it would wonder if this was the home of a great lord.
During the expansion, Levi did not forget to continue breeding animals. After the number of animals bred reached two, the original two horses and two chickens were no longer needed.
After thinking about it, Levi simply fenced a piece of land to raise them and separated them from the animals bred later.
After doing all this, Levi continued to plan the agricultural area.
Pumpkin, wheat, potato, radish, corn, onion, ginger, garlic...
Another day passed, and looking at the neatly divided area in front of him, Levi felt satisfied.
The crop seeds are growing vigorously. Although the pasture is a bit empty now, it will be filled up sooner or later as the breeding progresses. As for the horses, it is not enough to breed two gold horses at present, so they can only be put aside for the time being. However, at least there are horses available, and they are horses that can run all the time without rest. The fuel consumption is three grasses per 100 kilometers, and these three grasses are just symbolic bites.
In general, the development of Roadside Fort is booming.
That night, the pumpkin stalks ripened by bone meal grew the first square pumpkin.
Levi placed it on the iron block and summoned the first iron golem in the territory.
Ding!
The iron block and the pumpkin merged together at the moment of contact, turning into a three-meter-tall long-armed iron giant covered with moss and vines.
Unlike the blocks in the game, this iron golem is also closer to the realistic style. It looks rounder, but the silly look remains the same.
Once summoned, the iron golem began to wander around the territory and patrol.
The iron golem's search method is very simple.
Those with bad intentions will be beaten, and those without bad intentions will not be beaten.
One day later, there were twenty more iron golems in the castle.
With so many iron golems guarding, a small team of less than 100 people can be easily dealt with, and even if hundreds of orcs come, it is not impossible to fight.
It can be said that the security of the territory has been initially guaranteed.
In this way, another week passed.
The crops in the territory have been harvested. Looking at the several groups of vegetables in the warehouse, Levi also felt a heartfelt joy of the harvest.
That night, he pulled a few green onions and made a dish of beef with green onions.
It was so delicious.
These days are simply like a god.
On this day, Levi went out to mine as usual, and suddenly saw three bison drinking water by the lake.
So he immediately changed his route and quietly approached the lake. This time he didn't pick up the sword and cut it. Instead, he used all the strength of nine cows and two tigers to circle one, then knocked it out and invited him back to the castle.
[21/30]
You said this bison is different, the blood is so thick.
The next day, Levi continued to crouch by the lake and finally saw another bison.
Knock him out as usual and drag him back.
In this way, the two bison became companions in the pasture, and Levi obtained unlimited milk. By the way, he bred two bison calves with wheat, and his future meat was guaranteed.
This wave can be said to be a win-win - Levi wins twice.
After the bison, Levi discovered wild boars.
So it's the same operation again.
Crouch, approach slowly, circle, stun, drag back.
After settling the wild boar, Levi took the time to make a simple egg collection device.
In fact, there are some funnels placed under the chicken pen, with boxes connected underneath.
This way you won't have to pick up the eggs yourself in the future.
For half a month since he came back from Bree, Levi's life has been quite fulfilling. He has never been idle for a moment, whether he is mining or taking care of crops and animals in the territory.
In this way, even though iron is used every day, the inventory does not decrease but increases.
And the iron ore vein shows no sign of being dug out. It seems that the iron ore content is still sufficient.
Seeing that everything is in order, developing smoothly, and the supplies are quite abundant.
Two days later, Levi was ready to head east.
Early in the morning, Levi put a saddle on the faster of the two horses, equipped it with iron horse armor, and was preparing to set off.
But a guest came unexpectedly.
Falodane.
"hello!"
Levi, who was neatly dressed, started to say hello from afar: "How are you doing?"
"Alright."
Farodan glanced at the roadside fort with a surprised look on his face: "I feel like this place has become different. It seems to be much bigger, and..."
He looked at the farms and pastures inside the wall again and said, "I remember that there didn't seem to be any of these last time I came here..."
"Oh, I planted that a few days ago."
A few days ago?
The corn looks like it has been growing for two months!
Forget it, when facing this guy, you can't rely on common sense.
The homeless man had gradually learned to get used to Levi. He looked at Levi, who was neatly dressed and leading a horse that seemed not very smart, and asked: "It seems that I came at the wrong time. Are you going out?"
"Yes, I plan to go to the valley to have a look."
"Valley..." Farodan glanced at Levi.
"I know there. There is a path in the wasteland that leads to it. I hope you won't get lost."
Experienced nomads speak of shortcuts to Rivendell.
