Lear left the blacksmith shop with full of expectations.

When I was about to go back to rest, I suddenly heard cheers coming from outside.

I turned around curiously and found that it was the swamp witch who had finished her lecture and began to clean up the stage for a new round of drama performances.

Although the Swamp Banshee has been upgraded to the maximum level 12, it has reached the potential limit of 3 stars.

But I still enjoy performing dramas, which is an emotional experience.

The performance is performed every one or two days.

And with its unique immersive singing, it can always give the residents below a perfect viewing experience.

What’s interesting is that after several attempts, the swamp banshee will intentionally or unintentionally dilute the residents’ previous memories of the drama through her singing.

As a result, every time, it feels like the residents are watching the show for the first time.

Still maintaining a high level of curiosity and enthusiasm.

But this time is different from the past, as the first original play to be performed tonight is the first original play to be performed tonight.

The birth of a hero.

The main storyline is about an outsider who accidentally becomes a member of the Wei Lu City. He does not recognize the territory from the beginning and even wants to escape at all times.

Unexpectedly, by accident, I became a soldier.

On the way, he fell in love with a beautiful and pure girl.

After going through all kinds of difficulties, they not only transformed into a heroic unit, but also became the backbone of the army.

In the end, he got the beauty perfectly and it had a happy ending.

The content has been greatly expanded by the Swamp Banshee and can now be considered a story with flesh and blood.

Many of them are contents praising the territory and the lord.

At the same time, it was also mixed with a lot of difficulties encountered in territory construction and military sacrifices.

Although the choreography did not take long, there were no loopholes, and because it was close to life, it instantly drew the crowd into the mood.

I read it with great interest.

Even the proud night elves were completely immersed in it.

The protagonist's mood fluctuates as he encounters various experiences.

This story is very exciting, and it contains a lot of propaganda. Anyone who reads it will have a strong liking and sense of belonging to the City of Witness.

The effect of this culture will not forcibly change people's ideas, but the subtle changes are more thorough and silent.

Cultural victory!

After watching for a while, Lear suddenly seemed to sense something and became alert.

He immediately summoned the big devil and asked him to send him to the pig farm.

After landing, without hesitation, he moved his mind.

A burst of scarlet emanated from all around.

The land was covered with flesh and blood, the smell of blood was overwhelming, and the scarlet land of rotten flesh reappeared under the starry sky.

Lear stepped in and his eyes immediately locked onto a large group of figures in the central area.

The Naga and the Naga King who were corroded by the scarlet power had now completed the final step of their transformation.

Looking carefully, hundreds of three-meter-tall corrupted Nagas stood tall.

The blood-red eyes were cold and dead as they stared at each other, without any sense of life, as if they were statues.

The snake tail in the lower body is arched, supporting the upper body, and the waist is straight and strong.

Large blood-red spots on the snake's body are irregularly distributed, giving people a strong visual stimulation.

The four arms have bulging muscles, as if they were cast in metal, filled with an unspeakable sense of power, and can unleash deadly attacks at any time.

No action is necessary, just a glance from a distance can make you feel the ferocity and brutality of these lives.

The high-level troops at level 12 are definitely not weaklings.

If the cold-blooded cavalry had not been wearing the heavy rock armor and had not had an almost overwhelming advantage in equipment, the previous battle would never have been so easy.

Lear roughly sensed that the number of corrupted Nagas had reached 320.

This is definitely a force that cannot be underestimated.

But the most eye-catching thing is the figure in the central area that exudes a violent aura.

King of the Nagas!

With a height of 3.5 meters, it is a head taller than the ordinary corrupted Naga.

The aura on his body is even more ferocious.

This is the king of Naga. Even without the crown, he is still heart-stirring.

Lear could clearly feel the other party's changes at this moment.

Half-undead life.

There is no breath of normal life anymore.

Instead, the energy of death lingers around his body.

It feels even more terrifying.

A level 15 hero. Two months ago, this level was completely unimaginable for him.

Not to mention enslavement, even if they just saw someone from a distance, they would flee immediately for fear of being discovered.

In Loran City, a hero of this level would at least be the deputy commander of a legion of 10,000 people.

A well-deserved big shot.

But now, he grabbed a handful of them in his hands, and it seemed that he had completely lost the sense of preciousness.

Lear smacked the taste and felt a little emotional.

Maybe this is what it feels like to get rich?
The Naga King sensed Li'er's presence and immediately moved closer with his snake body.

When he was about ten meters away, he immediately lowered his head and held his chest.

"Great Lord, Dodoru, your humble servant salutes you!"

Li Er came back to his senses, stared at the level 15 Naga hero, and nodded with satisfaction.

The opponent's combat power is by no means low.

His own strength did not reach a certain level. Even with the blessing of a 4-star Brilliant Crown, it was impossible for him to withstand the siege of 8 high-level heroes for so long.

While thinking, my mind moved slightly.

The Scepter of Destruction surged forth from beneath the earth.

Lear took the scepter and handed it to the other party.

"You will continue to hold the Scepter of Destruction. In the future, I hope you can become the fangs of my City of Dew and tear apart all enemies!"

The Naga King took it with both hands and spoke in a high tone.

"Your will is above everything else!"

Lear smiled happily.

"In the future, you will continue to lead the Naga Army, stationed in the Scarlet Carrion Land, and guard the pig farm for me."

With a fierce army in his hands, he felt more at ease.

It doesn’t have to be as cramped as before when it is arranged.

As one of the core areas of his future plans, the pig farm must be guarded by an army.

Otherwise, if a wild monster suddenly rushed out from the wilderness and killed all the pigs, the loss would be huge.

After the Naga King was successfully transformed, the number of level 15 heroes in Lear's hands reached an astonishing 8!
Plus the level 13 Flesh Slayer and the level 14 Two-Headed Ogre Chieftain.

There is also Kalanis, who has just gained some tyrannical power and divinity.

The high-level combat power in his hands jumped to 11.

Compared with before, it is completely different.

This does not include the level 12 Scarlet Queen Bee, and the Desolate Grave which is not good at charging in the front.

Both of them rely on their subordinates to inflict huge casualties, and their own combat effectiveness is not that critical.

However, as their strength increases, the enemies of Wei Lu City become more powerful.

Consider him as a mortal enemy
Demigod - Lord of stench and flies.

Grand Duke of the Abyss - a tyrannical monarch.

Neither of these two is easy to deal with.

Although they both fell silent for a short time, it is conceivable that the two must have been planning how to take revenge day and night.

Once it is launched, it will surely be earth-shattering.

Comrades still need to work harder.

Li Er took a deep breath and turned back to his territory.

The next day, January 10st.

The territory is peaceful and tranquil.

He did not arrange any combat missions today, but simply asked the Scarlet Queen Bee to lead the swarm of bees to continue hunting in the wilderness.

He always felt that the energy stored in the Scarlet Carrion Land was not enough to consume, and he felt empty without any corpses being added to the account.

Flying life can come and go freely at great speeds, so there is no need to worry about any accidents.

On the other side, Kalanis rode on the swamp giant horned deer early in the morning and went around the swamp with two big demons to search for the lost heart of the tyrannical monarch.

There is also some tyrannical power hidden there.

It has to be said that whether it is the heart of the evil god or the tyrannical power, its value is immeasurable.

Either way, it's worth investing a lot of resources to find it.

The only information we know at the moment is that its heart is in a space layer within the swamp.

The rules of the main plane are powerful and stable, and the space is equally solid.

Some space mezzanines are hidden in hard-to-see areas and cannot be discovered at all without breaking the surrounding space.

In the end, Kalanis could only use the most simple method. Let the big demon use the power of space to search bit by bit. Although the diameter of the mud swamp is hundreds of kilometers, it covers a large area.

But hard work pays off. If you search every area carefully, you will find it.

And this is something that only Karanis can do herself, and outsiders cannot sense the breath of authority.

While others were busy, Lear was not idle either.

Get your hands on some of that backlog of government affairs.

As the territory expanded, the number of people increased, and the business grew, things immediately became more complicated.

Fortunately, these days, Bain has begun to add staff to various departments, and the administrative system has started to operate.

He doesn't need to take care of some trivial matters; he is only responsible for some key decision-making.

The process of handling government affairs also gave him a more detailed understanding of the progress of various aspects of the territory.

After the harvest, a new round of sowing began. It is expected that the second batch of wheat will be harvested by the end of November or early December.

In terms of food, things are thriving.

The first batch of chicks have already hatched from the Golden Pheasant and are growing well.

It is expected that the chicks will grow into adult roosters capable of producing feathers in two months.

At that time, the production of thorn arrows will no longer be restricted.

On the pig farm, the three piglets are inflating like balloons, the same every day.

It can grow to nearly 800 kilograms in one and a half months. You can imagine how exaggerated that is.

To this end, the pig farm staff had to apply for additional staff and began to expand the scale of planting colorful moss.

The fry of dragon blood red fish have grown to the length of a palm and are beginning to be distributed to new fish farms for breeding.

The number of seven or eight thousand fish makes the scale of the fish farm exaggerated.

It is expected that the first batch of dragon blood red fish will be produced in December.

And there are fish fry being hatched continuously.

It is worth mentioning that the giant pitcher plant brought back before has grown to two meters in height after more than a month of rapid growth.

Nectar production has already begun inside.

Perhaps in a month or so, we will be able to see the 4-meter-tall giant pitcher plant reappear.

By then, mass production of highly sweet sugar will no longer be a dream.

The development of the territory in all aspects is very good.

So, two days passed and it was October 10th.

The dozen or so people from the White Crow Chamber of Commerce have completely integrated into the territory in just a few days.

Brando considered himself to be well-informed, but he was still somewhat surprised by the City of Witness.

For the first time, he felt that the territory established in the wilderness could be so comfortable.

Although supplies here are extremely scarce, some basic necessities of life are hard to come by.

But other aspects are very rich.

First of all, regarding housing, each of them was assigned a residence, so there was no embarrassing situation of sleeping on the streets.

And these buildings woven with vines are very magical.

Not only is it cool during the day and warm at night, but it also regulates the humidity in the air so that the house can be kept in the most comfortable state and you won't feel damp because you are in a swamp.

What’s even more exaggerated is that these vines even have a powerful sound insulation effect!
No matter how noisy it was outside, it couldn't be heard inside the house.

Simply a miracle.

This made it extremely comfortable to live in, and Brando even felt that it was no worse than the residence of the legendary wizard that was covered by magic circles all day long!
More importantly, these houses are available to everyone!!

Who can I talk to to explain this? !
Second, the issue of food.

Although other supplies are scarce, there is no shortage of food here.

The territory will make unified arrangements for distribution so that every resident can eat hot food.

No one will go hungry.

Adequate food and safe housing provide the most basic security for residents.

Then came his extremely surprised mental look.

Everyone in the City of Wei Lu is in high spirits and full of energy and fighting spirit.

This is extremely abnormal.

Because even in Loran, the largest city in the North, there are still a large number of people who are listless, numb and depressed.

They are at the bottom of society and no one cares whether they live or die.

But in the City of Wei Lu, there is no such person, and no such person can be found.

The contrast between the two is particularly eye-catching.

This cannot be explained by the size of the territory. It's not like he hasn't been to the territories of other pioneer lords.

But as long as the population is within a thousand or two, the mental outlook of its residents will be similar to that of Loran City.

He didn't take it seriously before and had already gotten used to it.

But now seeing the residents of Weilu City, I suddenly realized that the residents of a territory do not necessarily have only one status.

You can also be full of fighting spirit and enthusiasm.

After observing for a few days, he discovered that the root of this was that in the City of Wei Lu, one could be a human being.

Rather than an oppressed slave!
My Lord, the rule you exercise over the residents is inclusive and open.

It is to treat the residents as human beings, rather than as pieces of goods or livestock!

This would be unbelievable in other territories.

Although residents are called residents, in the eyes of many lords and nobles, they are just cattle and livestock of the territory, and their only mission is to work for the territory.

It is a great blessing to be given two meals a day and not starve to death. Do you still want to be respected?
What a joke.

In the final analysis, it is the ordinary residents who have no power who are treated as slaves by the higher-ups.

Being enslaved all day long, one naturally cannot feel the vigorous vitality.

In the City of Witness, it was completely the opposite, the animals became humans!
They naturally possess the vitality that only talented people have.

In order to develop a territory, is it better to treat the residents as livestock or as human beings?
He looked at the people's positive work attitude, and thought of other territories where severe punishment was needed to drive residents to work. He had his own answer in his heart.

Brando's respect for Lear grew stronger as he got to know the City of Wisps more deeply.

When he learned that every night, swamp banshees would impart knowledge to all residents for free.

My scalp even felt tingling.

The inner sense of identification with the City of Wei Lu instantly reached an extremely high level!

What is knowledge?
That is precious wealth monopolized by the great nobles!
He was born in a humble family and was poor.

He had no idea how much energy he had spent in order to learn to read. The suffering and humiliation he had experienced still made him feel indignant when he thought about it.

But it was also because of the knowledge he learned when he was young that he was able to establish the White Crow Chamber of Commerce step by step.

And has been in business for nearly twenty years!

It is because we have benefited from it and experienced hardships that we know the value of knowledge.

But now, anyone who is a resident of Weilu City, regardless of their social status, can sit down and study! !

That precious knowledge, like pearls and gold, was opened to everyone and taught.

The first time Brando saw the Swamp Siren on the stage explaining the course to everyone, he was shocked beyond words.

It was at this moment that he understood

Why has this territory developed so well?

Because their master, his mind, vision, and courage are unique!

If it were him, would he be able to impart knowledge to everyone for free instead of taking control of it himself and establishing a greater dominance?

He asked himself, he couldn't do it.

People are selfish. Why should such a precious thing be learned so easily by the common people?

Then wasn't all the suffering he had endured before in vain?
By analyzing my inner self, I finally understood the difference between myself and the ruler of Weilu City.

This kind of mind and courage is on a different level.

He couldn't see at all from the height the other party was at.

The drama performances after the lectures also made him unable to stop.

This was the first time Brando had seen this kind of performance.

I was immediately addicted to it.

He was so excited watching the play entitled "The Birth of a Hero" that he could hardly extricate himself.

I even thought at one point that this was real.

Everything in the drama also gave him a clearer understanding of the City of Wei Lu. It turned out that the territory had experienced so many difficulties and sacrifices at the beginning of its birth.

In order to establish and protect the territory, the great lord has silently paid so much behind the scenes!

When the play was over, I looked around and immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

It seemed as if at this moment, he was also a warrior who had grown up with the territory and experienced countless wars and hardships.

The strangeness and alienation in my heart towards the City of Wei Lu were quietly shattered at this moment.

From then on, lectures and dramas every night became an indispensable part of Brando's life.

Not only him, but also a dozen people from the White Crow Chamber of Commerce also quietly integrated into the Wei Lu City.

In the end, they could even hug and laugh with the half-elves beside them while watching a play, and curse the villain's evil with the halflings on the side.

The cultural atmosphere created by Lear himself, with its powerful assimilation power, quietly integrated these dozen humans.

They eliminated the barriers with other races and became true residents of the City of Wisma.

And this unique power will continue to play a role in the future. (End of this chapter)
