Chapter 24 The Incomplete Man
Smoked cod shreds, rice, eggs, cream, curry, and a little vegetables are stirred together to make a fish egg risotto.
In my memory, the buffet breakfast at Fluorescent Castle has never been without fish egg risotto.
“Isn’t it a kind of happiness to like fish and egg risotto?” Russell ate barbecue, fried eggs and jam, occasionally took a bite of the risotto in the bowl, and sighed boredly, “At least I can enjoy happiness every day, unlike I want to take a bite of stir-fried vegetables but can’t.”
The good mood was reduced by a bite of fish egg risotto, but Russell was still in a good mood because the little dream dragon was lost and found.
It also means that there will be a steady stream of elves entering the account in the future.
After breakfast.
Russell bid farewell to his parents, and not surprisingly received a batch of material support, not much, just three large carriages.
Counting the five carriage supplies donated by the baron, he has already received eight carriage supplies sponsored by his parents.
“Father, mother, thank you for your generous gift. I will redouble my efforts to manage the Black-waisted Snake Manor, and train a team of knights as soon as possible to protect the safety of the Youguang River Valley, and go to the snowfield to kill the snow ghost and serve mankind Do your part for the restoration!”
The Snow Demon froze the entire Longmian Continent.
But when the dragon awakened, humans began to control the dragon, launched a counterattack against the snow demon, and restored their rule over the warm continent of the past.
Meryl is 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 here a few more times, you will move the Fluorescent Castle to the Black-rumped Snake Manor.”
Russell laughed: “This is because of your generosity, father.”
“Russell, when are you going to take me to the Black-Sided Snake Manor?” Laura covered her mouth and asked dissatisfiedly.
“I will definitely take you there when I have time!”
After rubbing his sister’s head, Russell immediately got on his horse and galloped towards his territory with three large carriages of supplies.
The journey went smoothly, and Mr. Ross did not come to provoke me.
When the carriage stopped at the gate of the manor, Charles, who was supervising the construction of the windmill, had already arrived on horseback.
“Haha, I know that the Baron loves you very much. As long as you show your face with a birchworm, you are guaranteed to bring generous gifts.”
“It’s a pity that days like this don’t come often.” Russell replied.
“Who knows, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, you will pick up another elf bug, you can’t say for sure.”
“I hope so.”
The two of them walked into the manor’s courtyard one after the other.
Charles said nonchalantly: “The building materials for the windmill are easy to get stone. You can just go to the Crooked Edge Mountain to chisel a few pieces, but the wood is a bit difficult. The birch forest cannot be cut down, but there are no other trees in the territory.”
“If you have any, you can’t cut it down, especially the trees that serve as the boundary between fields. They must be properly protected,” Russell said.
“Then now we can only go to the town to buy wood.”
“Go to Kestrel Manor to buy. I remember that Lord Atlas likes to plant trees the most. Many of the wood for Fluorescent Castle is purchased from Kestrel Manor.”
Lord Utteras is one of the vassals of Baron Netherlight, and is entrusted to the Kestrel Manor at the foot of Sharp Knife Mountain on the east side of Netherlight Valley.
As one of the Baron’s right-hand men, Atlas is also a knight of fantasy beasts. He even taught Russell boxing and kicking skills for a few days when he was a child.
Now Russell is taking the opportunity to establish a good relationship with Atlas, so that when he goes hunting ghosts in the snowfield in the future, he can help each other: “Teacher Charles, I will write a letter and you can send it to Kestrel Manor and buy enough wood from there. “
“Okay, I’m willing to help.”
Unfortunately, the weather was originally cloudy, but suddenly it began to rain lightly in the afternoon.
The construction of the windmill had to be stopped, and Charles was not in a hurry to buy wood. He hid in the manor courtyard with Russell and tasted black pearl wine.
Eric was unwilling to sit still: “Sir, I will take Tom and the others to inspect the border.”
“Are you still going out on patrol in this weather?”
“The more the weather is like this, the more dangerous it is to pay attention. Once the serfs are in danger, they may not even be able to issue a warning.”
Eric is dedicated to his job, and Russell will naturally not stop him.
“promise.”
The horse’s hooves walked away on the wet charcoal path.
Charles looked out from the window upstairs and said with emotion: “The arrival of this rain means that the ice age has completely subsided and the Youguang River will rise.”
“I originally wanted to keep vigil for Cordyceps.” Russell was a little unhappy.
Little Menglong returned. He originally planned to camp out for several nights in a row and search for all the elf bugs that might exist around the territory.
It can only be shelved for now.
At night, the rain not only did not stop, but got heavier and heavier. Russell, who was unable to camp in the wild, could only hide in his bedroom and enjoy the comfortable and warm big bed.
“Gah!”
In the dark dreamland, the little dream dragon arrived as promised.
This made Russell more and more certain that Xiao Menglong’s absence for the past three days was because his energy was severely damaged by a mouthful of dragon flame, and he had to rest.
Now that I have a good rest, I will naturally report to work on time every day.
“Let’s go, let’s take off and see if we can find any new harvests near the manor.” Russell rode the little Menglong and walked around with the manor as the center. After a while, he looked at the secluded lake where the water was beginning to rise. The river of light flies to a high place and then swoops down.
If there are no new discoveries, I will naturally focus on playing.
“Ice cream, tell me, what can we do to expand the dark dreamland, so that I can control all the situations in the territory while sleeping at home.”
“Quack.” Little Menglong just focused on playing.
Russell can only play the piano to the cow.
However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered that from the edge of the dark dreamland, a dim and incomplete figure rushed in, emitting a very weak blue light.
“Well, there is someone!” Russell immediately rode the little dream dragon 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 or others, but a person. stranger.
“He has fighting spirit. This is a knight. Judging from the glow and outline, he should be a knight in uniform!”
Russell quickly judged the person’s level.
Only the torso and hands of the figure glow, and the light from the legs cannot be seen. This is a very typical feature of the costumed knight. Because all the meridians have not been dug out yet, the Dou Qi cannot circulate in the legs, so naturally there will be no light.
He rode the little Menglong and flew directly to the mutilated figure.
Watching the figure turn back three times, using the cover of the rain, he quietly touched the outer wall of the manor’s courtyard, and then used his hands and feet to climb to the second floor.
“Oh shit!”
Russell frowned: “Who on earth actually touched the courtyard of my manor! Is it someone from the Xiangshui River Caves?”
A costumed knight is definitely a famous figure to the free people in the cave.
Without waiting for Russell to think deeply.
Xiao Menglong opened his mouth: “Gah.”
It is already tired, so it no longer intends to maintain the dark dream and wants to go 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 the reason at all, so he threw him off, then flapped his wings and disappeared around the corner.
“Dry!”
“Retarded ice cream!”
Russell had no choice but to suggest to himself loudly at the moment when the dark dream collapsed: “Wake up, wake up, someone is going to assassinate me!”
