The Defeated Dragon
Chapter 32: Marine Masts
Cities are not to be expected, only castles are to be expected - noblemen are sanitary, bathrooms have toilets and servants carry excreta and garbage outside the castle.
Because nobody knows how to use faecal fertilizer fields, they are randomly dumped in the wilderness, naturally weathered.
Effective use of faecal fertilizers definitely reduces dependence on elves - just reduces, as elves also have the ability to improve crop traits.
As the mast sailed over the blue sea, Coral City gradually disappeared out of view and tulip champagne at the top of the hill began to fall from the sea level.
This seems to prove the world, is it also a sphere?
Lester occasionally wonders, what the hell is going on in the world that he travels through, and why there is no information to infer any conclusions.
“My lord, what are you looking at?” Marcus walked over.
“Look at the sea, the blue sea, hiding countless treasures. ”
“I grew up on the beach, and I didn't have this wonderful idea of the ocean, with sea monsters, maybe some fish, but also fish in rivers and lakes, not dangerous. Wealth on the continent is the real richness, the inexhaustible. The glory of knights and nobles is also fought on the continent. ”
The Grand Duchy of Sapphire is an archipelago, but has never abandoned its logging of the mainland, organizing knights every few years to compete for minerals on the mainland.
A group of nobles was created.
The Tulip family was also discovered here, and Marcus dreamed a lot of going to the mainland to fight for himself, the Knight of the Lord of the Distribution of Power.
Now determined to serve Lester, Nature will tempt Lester from time to time.
Lester still looks at the deep sea and doesn't care about "Continental Wealth Says," the battlefield is so dangerous, why go! Be quiet, be a country lord, do your job, plant your fields, steady and steady step by step. If it was pure crossing, he didn't feel he could stand out among the natives, but with the help of a smoke mission, he could stay strong.
As for what the smoke mission is, one day its secret will be unlocked.
“Teacher Marcus, have you heard that beyond the archipelago of the Grand Duchy there are vast areas of undeveloped desert islands? ”
“Yes, I have spoken to some of the old crew and there are large islands beyond the archipelago, but those islands are above the deep sea, frequently storming, reefs are abundant, boats are difficult to navigate and have little development value. ”
“Maybe. ”
Lister said undeniably.
Otherwise, it goes without saying that, as long as pelagic fisheries develop, the wealth of the ocean will unveil the veil, and then island rivalry may be no less than land rivalry.
Not yet, he's just the owner of a small country town, bored to death.
“Hoist the sail! Front sail! ”
“Hoist the sail! Front sail! ”
The crew roared under the mast as the southerly wind blew in from the stern direction and hunted. The captain decidedly ordered the sailors to lift the sail for more wind.
The advent of sailboats has allowed humans to enter larger areas, and the fleet of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire is basically sailboats, but all transverse sails have not yet emerged. The advantage of a cross sail is that it flies fast on the wind, the disadvantage is that it has little effect on headwinds and requires paddling.
At this time, the fleet raised its sails individually, forming a triangular formation on the surface of the sea, spectacular.
We left in the morning and arrived at Red Crab Island in the evening.
Red Crab Island is ten times the size of Coral Island, and the Fort of Yams is not by the sea, but halfway up the mountains in the middle of the island. So after getting off the boat, Lester et al. had to stay overnight in the marina city of Sea Crab City, then change into a carriage, drive for a day, and arrive at the Fort of Long Yams on the third day.
Training pigeons have not received and sent mail, and the heavy pigeons of thick leather paper are not expected to move.
However, because of previous arrangements for the Knight to send a letter, the Tulip family's children will visit in the near future. So Yam Castle in the other courtyard of Sea Crab City, a servant was arranged to wait. As soon as Lister arrived, he arranged to stay in the other courtyard, without having to stay in the dirty city.
After dinner at night, Lester took a bath and lay in bed.
He's a little seasick.
In my hometown, I got used to being a plane and a train, and I really didn't get used to boating. Fortunately, his predecessor was an islander with good water quality, which allowed him to overcome it slightly without being completely seasick.
“As an Islander, you're seasick, Lester, and I have to say you're embarrassing the face of the tulip family. I thought you were mature, but I didn't expect you to be so embarrassed, and associating yourself with your previous cowardly behavior is really my stupid brother.” Livella appeared in Lester's room sometime.
No knocking.
This surprised Lester because he was watching his own smoky snake language —— often making it out to see if there were any new discoveries.
But soon he settled down because Rivera didn't seem to see Smoky Snake, which Lester could only see herself without worrying about leaking.
“You forgot to knock. ”
“Didn't I knock? It doesn't matter.” Livella held her breasts with both hands, staring at Lister and showing her disdain.
“It's important to me that you don't respect my privacy, and that's not very ladylike. Nobles love ladies, dear sister. ”
“I don't need to change myself to please any nobility! Besides, Lester, when do I need your advice? If it weren't on Red Crab Island, I'd really kick your ass and make you understand that promotion to Earth Knight is nothing! ”
Lister has been bullied by Levera since she was a child.
In his view, the root cause was Levera's jealousy of his appearance - handsome enough to embarrass most women.
“Aren't you here just to tell me that I'm still weak? ”
“Just wanted to see your seasick ugliness. ”
“So you see, can you please come back? ”
Livella glared at him and turned away. Lister stood up and locked the door. The other girl was 19 years old. She was still a teenager. The result of her behavior was unclear.
I don't really care, the memory of Levera, that's how big, or cheap, people are.
The Count is often saddened that he and Levera should change their personalities.
One shows more than a girl, one dances more than a boy.
Lie down again, Lester had some trouble sleeping and had to think about something boring: “Five months ago, I came to the Fort of Long Potatoes as a New Year's Eve visit. Marquis Merlyn was not on the island at that time, and he was captain of the court fleet, something he hadn't officially seen in about four or five years. ”
Given the aristocratic monogamy, families tend not to thrive.
Melinda was married to Marquis follower Roland Pingo, Viscount of Long Siege Island. There is only one heir, Messiro Yam, the eldest son, and Messiro has only one son, Meoppo Yam.
“Cousin Meoper... Looks like he's almost 25, not married? Looks like he's after Grand Duke Sapphire's daughter? The little princess, I hear, is a social flower. ”
The Grand Duchy, a subordinate of the empire and kingdom, and the title of supreme ruler is the Grand Duke. Strictly speaking, a daughter cannot be called a princess if she is not a king. Not to mention the newly ascended Grand Duke of Sapphire, who could not become a Dragon Knight, whose title has been reduced to Duke.
In the aristocratic system, the Prince, the Grand Duke and the Duke are hierarchical titles, but only if they become knights are they declared princes or the Grand Duke, otherwise they can only be dukes.
But the rules are dead, the people are alive, the Grand Duke of Sapphire is in the country, all nobles call the ruler the Grand Duke, and his daughter is naturally regarded as a princess and admired.
Lester maliciously thought: "In case Meoper marries a princess, it is very likely that he finds out that the child is not his... hehe. ”
