Shameless Warlock

"So, in less than a week, you not only prevented the arrival of the devil lord, emptied the frost giant's treasure, but also sealed a snow goddess?"

In front of the office, Liu Huo, who was forced to shut down the [Poisonous Tongue Module] and [Humor Module] by Xu Nan, spoke in an unusually calm tone.

But for some reason, under the gaze of the silver-haired Luoli's piercing gaze, Xu Nan lowered his head a little guilty.

Well, he also knew that he was really a bit of a fool. He originally went to Bingfeng to discuss the right to mint coins, but who knew that he got involved in such a dangerous matter, and in the end he sent Qin Lele to heaven.

"Accidents are all accidents."

Xu Nan complained: "I don't know what's going on, it's just a long trip, there are so many accidents."

Liuhuo said calmly: "It's understandable."

Xu Nan was a little surprised, he asked in disbelief:

"Don't you have anything critical to say?"

This doesn't match Liuhuo's style!

Liuhuo plucked up his courage, glanced at Xu Nan's right hand, and couldn't help saying:

"No."

Xu Nan smiled happily, Liuhuo is still making progress, and finally knows how to be considerate of himself.

So he slowly removed the hand that was pressing the [Sleep Mode] button on the master control interface of the Dengyun ship.

Liu Huo breathed a sigh of relief, somewhat resentful in his eyes.

"Speak seriously."

Xu Nan coughed and began to change the subject: "After I left, nothing happened, right?"

There's no way, he knew that with his turbulent temper, he would definitely be ridiculed crazily, and he had to preemptively stop her mouth!

It's a pity that she has no entity, so she can only block her buttons.

Liuhuo sullenly reported:

"The performance of the Gray Tower Consul is very good. The internal affairs of the unknown city are running well. Currently, the services of the city hall have been recognized by most residents. The atmosphere outside the city is also good. Everyone expressed that the happiness index is very high..."

"but."

Xu Nan stopped his back, knowing that the point was coming.

"The energy issue is still unresolved."

"In addition, the chief mage has not appeared in the high-level meeting of the city hall for two consecutive weeks. In addition, you are also absent, the city lord. Everyone will be somewhat uneasy."

Liuhuo almost rolled his eyes.

The two most powerful characters in Unknown City are both outside, and a group of younger brothers don't dare to make a decision even if there is any big event!

"Chief mage?"

"Senior Jiang hasn't come back yet?"

Xu Nan was somewhat surprised.

Because something happened to Stephen Sang before, Jiang Yuan went back to deal with it a little later. He thought it was just some daily affairs, but he didn't expect it to be delayed for so long.

It stands to reason that Jiang Yuanchi, as An Suli's representative, should be permanently stationed in Unknown City.

Coupled with the relationship between her and Xu Nan, she shouldn't be wandering around like herself...

But he noticed Liuhuo's slightly weird wording.

"disturbed?"

Xu Nan asked seriously: "What happened to the mine?"

His first reaction was the mine. After all, the emerald mine was cursed, and it was inextricably linked with the Blood God.

Liuhuo shook his head:

"The operation of the mine is very good. Two sub-mines have been opened this week. Everyone is very enthusiastic about their work, and the ore production capacity has increased sharply. Yesterday, the McKinsey dragon said that he could not eat..."

"Everyone's anxiety comes from the ground."

"There is a change in the black dragon's lair!"

Xu Nan frowned.

Liu Huo didn't give a shit, and quickly sorted out the matter briefly.

In general, the inflatable puppets patrolling the border were greatly damaged. The city hall sent people to check and found that the vicinity of the black dragon's lair had become different.

A large number of kobolds, gnolls and other similar low-level creatures were summoned to gather. The spies in charge of the exploration went all the way and found that the villages of many underground creatures were empty. It seemed that something major had happened, and many of them left without packing up. .

The place where they gathered was the lair of the young black dragon that Jiang Yuanchi had scouted before.

The spies also found that several open-pit iron mines in the Black Dragon's Lair were heavily guarded, and there was a loud sound of starting work at night, which seemed to be building equipment in a hurry.

In other words, the young black dragon seemed to be dispatching troops and preparing to do something!

No wonder everyone in the Unknown City was uneasy.

Generally speaking, if the monsters in the ground wanted to use force, they would attack the ground.

The unknown city has blocked the important route from the black dragon's lair to the surface. If they want to fight over, this place must be the only way to go.

Although the black dragon is still underage, dragon creatures, as the existence at the top of the food chain in the multiverse, always have a natural oppressive force on other creatures.

"That black dragon wants to fight violently at a young age?"

"This is so hard to imagine..."

Xu Nan was puzzled.

The black dragon is powerful, immune to natural magic, fierce physical attacks, almost no natural enemies in the ground, but it is also an adult black dragon.

What's more, with such a large population in Unknown City, the crowd tactics will kill him--Xu Nan will definitely not do this, but if the black dragon has a brain, it will definitely have concerns.

After all, when the population reaches a certain level, it is indeed an important factor that can influence the situation of the war.

This is also one of the reasons why Xu Nan is willing to accept the population of Wildfire City.

"His target is not necessarily us."

Xu Nan is very calm. He is very aware of the strength of the young black dragon. Of course, the nineteen magic tanks brought out from the tomb of the frost giant this time are also one of the sources of confidence.

"However, we still need to find out the specific situation."

"Any more in-depth information?"

he asks.

Liuhuo shook his head: "Because this matter is of great importance, the high-level meetings of the city hall have been discussed several times without any results, and you may still need to order it yourself."

Xu Nan nodded, he understood everyone's concerns.

Currently, half of the members of the city hall are professionals from the Taotie God Cult and come from Earth;

Their way of thinking must be inconsistent, and it may not be obvious at ordinary times, and it is enough for everyone to give in to each other.

When this happens, disputes will naturally arise over how to deal with it.

And Tang Haibao, the theoretical third in command of Anonymous City, is not so strong in character and tends to drift with the crowd.

It is estimated that he has been busy with the mud these days.

"Understood, is there a suitable candidate? Who was the previous spy?"

Xu Nan said decisively: "I want to see him."

The matter in the black dragon's lair is not a trivial matter. Strictly speaking, the city hall meeting has been delayed for too much time.

He must get first-hand information in the shortest possible time.

At this time, he suddenly missed Gray who broke up in Xueyuan City...

If this guy is willing to serve in the unknown city, Xu Nan will definitely not be stingy with power, at least he is a good hand in the intelligence department.

"In addition to the administrative system, the rest of the systems have to be established one by one."

Xu Nan rubbed his temples, only to feel the pressure doubled.

No way, Anonymous City almost started from scratch. From Xu Nan's casual behavior at the beginning, to the seriousness after absorbing the residents of Wildfire City, Xu Nan's concept is changing. The development speed of Anonymous City is actually not bad, but He still feels the pressure.

Liuhuo passed on Xu Nan's order, and the elephant man guards passed it on to the communication officer Awei who was in place at any time. In less than ten minutes, Awei led the people in.

"It's very efficient."

Xu Nan couldn't help but glanced at this communication officer who usually had no sense of presence. He vaguely remembered that Awei was once a homeless man. After accidentally joining the Taotie God Sect, he followed him to the general world in a daze.

A Wei did not take office, and his only characteristic was that he ran fast. At that time, Xu Nan retained him as a communications officer.

There is no way, the only means of communication in the unknown city is broadcasting - this is still built by the boarding cloud ship, the city lord can't announce everything widely, can he? Then the city lord's hall has become a high school reception room?

Xu Nan also knew the person Awei brought in. He was a dark elf warrior who went to explore the Ratman village together. His name seemed to be Xiaoliang, and he was also one of the "believers" of the Taotie God Sect.

It seems that his mental state is very good, and it may be because Xiaoliang was washed by Jiang Yuanchi with [Deadly Thunderball] when Xu Nan saw him for the first time...

Seeing that the compatriots who stayed with him in the general world can find a suitable position for him in the unknown city, Xu Nan is also very happy.

At least they didn't cheat them.

Xiaoliang treats Xu Nan very respectfully. In his opinion, Xu Nan has already surpassed most professionals on the earth if he can gain a firm foothold in the foreign world. Everyone can see the situation of the unknown city. There are not so many concepts of superiority and inferiority, but after coming here, everyone has subtly changed.

At least they won't be making jokes, big or small, just because they are all fellow earthlings.

This is also the reason why Xu Nan is more gratified: she did not make a mistake in her original choice, at least the group of people who stayed behind did not have the brain-dead patients in the novel.

...

Xiaoliang quickly recounted the information about his first visit to the vicinity of the Black Dragon's lair. Compared with Liuhuo, his narration is more intuitive, and there are many details that Xu Nan cares about.

"You mean, that black dragon is still in an important sleep period?" Xu Nan was a little surprised.

"It should be right." Xiaoliang judged confidently: "I have studied the water quality of the underground river, and the black dragon sleeps in the upper reaches of the underground river. According to my knowledge of the dragon clan, the black dragon has different effects on the water quality when it is sleeping and when it is awake. The impact is different."

Xu Nan nodded in agreement.

Xiaoliang's homework is still in place. Black dragons naturally have their own [acid field], they will transform the place where they live to live on their own, one of the characteristics is the acidification of water quality.

"Then, according to your inference, who is calling the shots?"

Xu Nan habitually tapped the desk lightly with her fingers.

"I don't know, we know too little about the black dragon's lair."

Xiao Liang explained honestly:

"Because we didn't want to expose the existence of the unknown city too early, we didn't even dare to go to the surrounding villages of the black dragon's lair to find out the news."

Xu Nan thought for a while, and said decisively: "Find out the specific reasons for the black dragon's violent soldiers, and wait for the opportunity to collect more information about the dark world. Are you confident?"

Xiaoliang took a deep breath and put one hand on his chest. This is the signature action of a drow ranger. He seems to have gradually gotten used to the characteristics of this race:

"Absolutely confident."

"How much time? What help?"

Xu Nan didn't talk too much, and went straight to the point.

Xiaoliang didn't shirk, and made a list, which included supplies, various intelligence-gathering items, and some escape tools.

According to Xiao Liang's plan, he would take a small team to the Black Dragon's lair, and then station the rest of the team nearby to collect information on the surrounding areas as a support.

And he himself will go deep into the lone army to find out the root cause of the change in the black dragon's lair.

In a sense, the risk Xiaoliang took was a bit big.

But he looked determined and seemed agitated.

"A young man who wants to prove himself?"

Xu Nan hesitated a little.

This kind of desire to prove that one’s mind is good, one just doesn’t know where it comes from.

It only appeared on young people, and it was such a dangerous task, Xu Nan felt that there might be accidents.

He thought about it for a while, and finally decided to trust Xiao Liang.

It's just that in addition to the things on the list, he also privately funded a set of more sophisticated equipment for Xiaoliang.

Xiaoliang is a third-tier dark elf warrior, and the equipment he wears is still ordinary items. Although Xu Nan can't directly give a set of magic items, it is still no problem to enchant the equipment.

After all, there are still a lot of things that were looted from the low-level alchemy center back then.

It is healthy to digest once in a while.

To Xu Nan's surprise, after receiving the equipment from Xu Nan, Xiaoliang only showed a little gratitude, and did not appear too emotionally excited.

This is very different from the emotional fluctuations that Xu Nan saw with the superspiritual vision when he took on the task.

"Don't you like this set of equipment?"

"Or, does he care more about doing something for the unknown city?"

"Sense of honor? Sense of mission?"

Xu Nan was full of question marks.

However, he also found that since he got the superspiritual vision, he couldn't help but check the emotional changes of the people around him from time to time, which might help him a lot in observing words and emotions.

But if things go on like this, I don't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing.

After sending Xiao Liang away.

Xu Nan began to review the documents quickly while listening to Liuhuo's report on the follow-up content.

It's a pity that there is no way to choose the type of voice, otherwise it really feels like reviewing a memorial.

Generally speaking, the state of the unknown city is not bad.

The rat people integrated quickly, and the alchemy industrial park was planned. However, there are still very few alchemy laboratories that have officially started work. After all, the rat people only have talent in this area, and it is unlikely that they will directly realize the ability of the alchemy industry so quickly.

It is worth mentioning that the hatred between races that Xu Nan was worried about did not happen.

Even the most conservative people in the ice field, perhaps after seeing creatures such as undead, tauren, elephant man, and dwarf, faced a tribe of ratmen, and they showed quite restraint. Although they were not so friendly, they could Tolerate each other.

This is actually a very rare thing.

It can only be said that this may have something to do with Xu Nan's goal of equality and diversity set at the beginning of the establishment of Unknown City.

Xu Nan thinks that he is not a saint, and it is impossible to achieve equality for all beings, but it is still possible to ensure that residents of all backgrounds in his city can enjoy most of the equality.

"Tang Haibao's recent work log is a bit stretched..."

Xu Nan touched his nose: "It's better for this guy to do some practical work. It's a bit difficult for him to manage the military system."

The current military system of the Unknown City is really strange:

The elephant people are responsible for the safety of the city lord and the city hall. They set up a city lord guard, headed by the elephant guard Odora, who only listen to Xu Nan and Liuhuo's orders, and don't listen to anyone else.

With Xu Nan's permission, the Icelanders formed two militia teams. These two militia teams were commanded by the original forces in Wildfire City. Strictly speaking, they also obeyed Xu Nan's orders, but Xu Nan usually encountered Less than—the militia team is responsible for the daily patrol and protection of the mine. Its strength is average, but it is enough to drive away some scattered underground creatures.

In addition, it was Xu Nan who asked Tang Haibao to be in charge of the preparations for the regular army of the unknown city.

In the past, it was because the food problem had not been resolved, and the anonymous city was waiting to be rebuilt, so the military affairs were postponed, but now that each matter is on the right track, the military issue of the anonymous city must be resolved.

It's a pity that not many professionals in Qianmang Club know much about the military system, so Xu Nan simply let Tang Haibao do it.

He also intends to use this to test Tang Haibao's ability.

The result disappointed him a bit.

When he came back this time, he also brought back the Magic Tank and Sentinel series of constructs, which can greatly enhance the combat capability of the army, but the problem is that now the unknown city does not even have an army...

"It seems that we have to change the candidate."

He was lost in thought.

And at this moment, a fiery figure broke in from the outside.

Xu Nan was startled immediately, and soon there was a smile on his face:

"Senior Jiang?"

...
