Chapter 258: The Player's Favor Is Really Good to Brush Up......
The remaining Bone Guards were quickly cleaned up by the players.
As for the materials left behind after their deaths, they all quickly dissipated in the air without being preserved.
Only the Flame Chaser, who had been frozen up, was taken away by Kaphne.
The oil in her lantern is made from the ointment of the Light Chaser and several balancing substances—only this ointment can maintain a stable and bright light in any environment. And it also ensures that the light will not be too dazzling, and it will not overheat the lantern and cause it to catch fire.
It is a spell material in its own right, so it can be made into a spell with just a simple handling.
"About five barrels of 'white liquid fire' can be extracted."
Kaphni said so seriously to Annan at the time: "I brought the tools, and the refining work can be handed over to me." When I refine it, I'll leave a bucket and I'll give you the rest......"
If you need it, just take it all - Annan was going to say that.
But he also learned from Caphne that a "barrel" of white liquid fire the size of a tea leaf could be sold for about forty to sixty pounds.
…… Two hundred gold coins.
Hearing this price, Annan silently swallowed back the words that had not been exported before.
He doesn't have that amount in his whole house now.
But then Annan thought again.
Since this is a precious spell raw material...... That is, is there a possibility that Salvatore will need something?
Anyway, who is not selling, it is better to simply sell it to seniors. It's called taking what you need......
…… Speaking of which, how much did I owe him before?
Salvatore never mentioned the repayment of the money to Annan, and Annan couldn't remember it clearly for a while.
Before recapturing the old ceremonial master, nicknamed "Daddy", Annan did not forget to hand out the rewards for the limited-time mission.
Each of them gave out 200 XP and 200 Favorites - this number is enough to make those players who came over to "play an activity book" leave happily.
Four dark carvings and citalopram, the main quest of the two of them was finally completed together. The experience rewards of the two missions stacked together made them directly upgrade to level 7.
Tonight, they may have to stay with the "parents".
As for their own housing, they have to wait until daytime, Annan went to the city hall to run the formalities and gave them a house from Chishui Street - yes, the current players' housing in Roseburg is allocated by Annan for free, and he doesn't even ask for favorability.
And each of them is a two-hundred-square-meter house with three bedrooms and two living rooms!
…… Although I do not send decoration.
This is probably a rare conscience of Gou Planning.
- Although he is a fellow countryman in a parallel world, he is also a fellow countryman after all.
Annan knows very well what these players want......
Anyway, there are a lot of empty houses in Roseburg.
After repelling the rotten man a few days ago, Annan finally could not ignore the garrison in Roseburg, which seemed to be completely motionless as a little deaf and blind.
At that time, he risked his identity being revealed, went to the Qingshui neighborhood in the south of the city, and said hello to the local garrison generals.
The other party was very polite, and he didn't embarrass Annan - it also shows that he didn't know Don Juan Geraint either.
He made it clear that they were not subordinate to Count Geraint, but to General Edwin's direct troops.
As the head of intelligence, Count Geraint is in charge of the state's spy service, and is therefore not allowed to have any form of military power...... Therefore, they were even specially instructed by General Edwin not to follow Annan's orders and be transferred.
They are only responsible for two things - if the Duchy of Winter invades again, then they will defend Roseburg and call for help from the royal capital as soon as possible.
At the same time, the spies responsible for intercepting from the direction of Frozen Water Harbor may be spies from the Principality of Winter. So that they could not continue to go deeper south.
When he first heard such a statement, Annan's expression was a little strange.
…… But you didn't stop me?
I seem like I'm the spy, hey?
But since then, Annan has learned at least one thing - the other party is not deliberately going against him, nor is he making any py deal with the viscount, let alone plotting to make trouble for himself.
They were just jealous of the Geraint family...... In other words, in order to avoid suspicion, there is no need to have any contact with yourself.
Then things are simple.
Roseburg, which was rebuilt after the war, resembles an asymmetrical four-petaled flower.
The Rusty Water Street on the east side is a mixed slum area with an industrial area, the Chishui Street with the largest area on the north side is a dense residential area, the Qingshui Street with the smallest area and the best environment on the west side is the municipal area, the Qingshui Street on the south side is a commercial and entertainment area, and the middle side is a huge city square.
But Fort Rose, after all, was a frontier fortress.
Chishui Street, in the north of the city, was divided into a military control area for storing garrison supplies and accommodating garrison troops during the war. But after the war, with the withdrawal of the garrison, these places were empty...... After all, Roseburg is a marginal city close to the border, and if there are too many garrisons, it will cause a very large freight pressure.
With Frozen Water Harbor as an outpost and buffer, they basically don't need too many garrisons to garrison here. In fact, the garrison that has been stationed in Fort Roses has only 2,000 elite soldiers.
After all, Roseburg also has an underpass.
The specific location is at 1 Clear Water Street - from the underpass, you can take a huge subway-like steam machine from the royal capital to Roseburg.
The most elite transcendent troops of the Noah Kingdom, once they receive the order, can reach any large city of the Noah Kingdom within half a day. In the face of the infiltration of small enemy forces, well-trained transcendents are more effective than soldiers.
The transcendent can only be smuggled through underground passages. Those who can penetrate into it must be ordinary people, and the transcendent ones have a strong suppressive power over ordinary people. And they are extremely small, and they still enter the city through underground passages that are not accessible to ordinary people...... This makes their arrival very quiet.
After a large number of garrisons were gradually withdrawn from Roseburg to the interior, Roseburg suddenly became much emptier.
The young Viscount of Roseburg made a very clever decision - after obtaining permission from Earl Geraint, he recruited a construction team from the interior with a high salary, which was used to convert the military base on the north side into civilian housing. At the same time, they will step up the construction of commercial districts to sell high-priced but high-quality goods and services to these high-paid workers.
Back and forth, they hardly lost much. There were even some construction teams that simply stayed in Roseburg for a long time...... After all, there is a long-term project for urban redevelopment here.
This has attracted a large number of residents.
And in order to free up space for the soldiers, the Viscount of Fort Roseburg also offered them a villa complex located in the center of the business district at a low price. His purpose is also very simple, that is, to allow the garrison to become the security of their business district for free.
Although neither the Barber family nor the Geraint family can fully control this force...... But a soldier is also a human after all. Living in that place, feelings naturally arise.
And the viscount was also very knowledgeable - or rather, he drove ducks to the shelves, and removed the original city guard forces in the business district. As a result, the garrisons had to work as security guards for them...... Later, Viscount Barbel also wanted to give them an additional municipal salary to curry favor with them, but was very seriously refused. Even Viscount Barber had been warned at the time—but only as a warning.
After all, it is soft...... This luxury housing is not given away for nothing.
Roseburg, with its good security and intensive commercial activities, has become the most prosperous city in the North Sea Territory. Many small businessmen from other places will come to Qingshui District to buy a house.
You must know that in this day and age, it is not easy to ensure good law and order.
But while Roseburg has a steady stream of inhabitants from the interior, the dense population in the north of Roseburg is still being built faster than it is being inhabited.
Annan immediately used his power to allocate all the residential areas directly belonging to Viscount Barber to the player. This is the title deed and house deed used to pay the lord's debt after the construction team goes bankrupt - although Viscount Barb is not a lord, he lives in Roseburg as a lord, so these things are also in his hands.
This is equivalent to a batch of "foreclosure houses".
This "community", about forty or so apartments, are all well managed next to each other. But each set is more than 200 square meters, three floors of luxury specifications, not at all like it is sold to ordinary people. I am afraid that it is precisely because of the positioning of this construction team that the houses here have not been sold...... You know, the rich people live in the Qingshui District in the south.
So Annan split these single-family villas into three parts. This can be given to three players......
It's enough for a while.
And the players obviously appreciate it very much-
Although Annan didn't pay them last month, so much so that players even forgot that they were paid – players were very happy to learn that they had been given a free apartment by Annan.
In particular, after experiencing the narrow housing of 30 square meters per capita on the side of Lengshui Port, I saw the new houses that Annan gave them...... It's a dance of ecstasy.
Annan also smiled with satisfaction.
The goodwill of this group of players is really easy to brush......
And after having their own residence, they must be more identified with the world and themselves...... It's more immersive.
As for now......
After the players returned to their respective homes, Annan took the ceremonial master nicknamed "Daddy" and returned directly to the Viscount's Mansion.
He got some unexpected information from "Daddy......
Annan didn't know if Kaphne knew the name. But today's players are definitely not suitable to know these secrets.
"Daddy" said to Annan before...... He came to Noah's kingdom on the orders of the Storm Daughter. The purpose was to document Michelangelo's resurrection.
Annan had heard the nickname "Lady of the Storm" from Old Bread.
This is not the name of a god, but a title like "Eye of Lag".
It is a title that can only be possessed by the gold-level powerhouse!
And the owner of the title "Lady of the Storm" ......
It's Maria Winter.
- Annan Rindong's own sister.
