Chapter 91 Akhama City (Part 2)
Chapter 91 Akham City (Part 2)
Most of the students who entered Dongsheng Academy are geniuses, except for those sponsors.
Among them, there are also many of them who come from poor backgrounds. The graduation certificates of five major colleges in mainland China can make their future life several times brighter. Therefore, of course, civilian students are unwilling to give up their studies just like this.
Ge Zheng looked at their hungry ghosts and shook his head helplessly. If they were warriors or magicians, they could still take on tasks to support themselves. It would be really difficult for alchemy students to earn gold coins before they were famous.
"Along the way, we could only do odd jobs in some small alchemy shops and make some money to come to the teacher. But when we arrived at the city gate, we didn't have that much money to pay the city tax, so we started arguing with the guards. We said we were students of the city lord, but those guards just didn't believe it..." He grabbed his head and said embarrassedly: "We were dressed in rags. If I weren't, hehe, fortunately we met you, teacher..."
This group of people are not top figures in the Alchemy Department, but also civilian students. The daily living expenses are very tight. Where can I get the money to go to the Alchemist Association for registration and certification?
Although they were students from the academy, all the identity certificates were lost in a panic escape. Although their level was even more skillful than the owners of those alchemy shops, they could only do odd jobs and make a few small money.
"Teacher, I guess there will be classmates coming here. Now the royal city is still in chaos, the northern front line is not stable, and the new emperor has no time to deal with the affairs of the academy, and the classmates all escaped..."
Cronize made a thorough arrangement before leaving the northern front. When he heard the news of his departure, the two northern imperial coalition forces were ready to take advantage of it. They were bitten hard by the trap set by Cronize, and each of them lost thousands of elite soldiers.
However, Cronise was not a prophet after all, and his arrangements could only be handled for a while. After ascending the throne, the first thing he had to do was to consolidate the northern border defense, then straighten out the major forces in the royal city, and then communicate with the major aristocratic forces in the local area to win their support.
As for the matter of Dongsheng Academy, I don’t know when the card will go.
Ramir left the royal city at this time. The thousand-year-old magic martial arts academy was in turmoil and seemed to be destroyed overnight.
Ge Zheng was not highly respected in the academy. If all the mentors were asked to elect one person to take charge of the affairs, he would definitely not be him. But Ge Zheng was very famous in the academy. Not to mention anything else, the matter of teaching Director Big Bear a lesson won him the love of a large number of students.
Moreover, Ge Zheng is now the only one among all the teachers who have a fief. Although it is far east of the empire, it is always a place to shelter from the wind and rain. The noble students can go home, but many of the civilian students have the same thoughts as Nidek, so of course they will come to Akhama City.
In the following days, many students gathered in Ge Zheng's territory one after another. Ge Zheng specially sent people to work at various city gates. When students from Dongsheng Academy arrived, they immediately received a hotel he had booked.
Most of the students in the Alchemy Department and some of the students in the Comprehensive Department were miserable, and they were almost begging all the way. Students in the Warrior Magician Department were much better. They came to Akhama City just to see if they still had hope of getting a diploma.
Half a month later, a war broke out on the northern front. Cronise, who had not yet sat on the throne, led the army to fight north, and the chaos in the royal city was temporarily covered up. At the moment of the enemy, the major families who had originally had any disagreements also united and agreed to the outside world first.
More than a thousand students had gathered in Akham City, and Ge Zheng had booked half of the hotels in the city, but this was not a long-term solution.
The residents of the small town of Portland welcomed the first order from the new Lord Lord to upgrade Portland to Portlandburg.
Residents in the town can sign up to become construction workers, and each person’s monthly salary is twenty silver coins. This salary standard is a considerable income in Portland Town, but it is spring and the busy farming season for sowing. It is said that there should not be many recruits at this time, but the residents of Portland Town sign up out of normal terms.
Building a small town with only a simple wooden fence into a stone fort is undoubtedly of great help to resist the robbers in the Wuhui mudflat. In fact, the target of the robbers in the Wuhui mudflat is not the cities surrounded by the tall walls, but these small towns.
The town has a fragile defense and can easily rush in and loot. Compared with the big cities where heavy troops guard the defense like turtles, the town is undoubtedly a delicious meal for robbers.
It can protect the home and transfer an extra amount of money, so the residents are of course happy.
However, when the mayor Avran took the drawings of the castle design from the lord, he was a little stunned: this project is very large.
The mayor originally thought that the future Portlandburg would be just a fifth-level stone fort, but after getting the drawings, he found that the city lord was ambitious to build Portlandburg into a first-level stone fort.
The planned area is very large, and even the undeveloped metal mine caves are surrounded.
Just like a city, stone forts are divided into five levels. The highest level first-level stone fortress is almost comparable to the lower-level military fortress! A fourth-level city has a first-level stone fort in its territory. The mayor couldn't help but worry about the city lord's intentions.
Ge Zheng's intention was very simple, and he had absolutely no purpose of military rebellion. He just wanted to rebuild a magic martial arts academy in Portlandburg.
More and more students came to join Ge Zheng, and many teachers who protected the students along the way also came to Akhama City. Ge Zheng's city was not as large as the royal city, and it was undoubtedly unrealistic to set up an area in the city to rebuild the academy. So he decided to build Portland Town into a first-class stone fort, and the planning of the stone fort was completely based on the standards of the academy.
Even if all students return to Dongsheng Academy in the future, they can still start their own colleges. If you look at the high sponsorship fees of Dongsheng Academy, you will know that running a college in this world is a very profitable business. In the eastern part of the empire, there are indeed no decent colleges.
In addition, Ge Zheng had another plan: these students had been eating and living for free for him for a while, and he had spent countless gold coins for this. The students from the Warriors and Magicians were of great strength, and they just asked them to help "clean" the monsters in the metal mine. It was also a trial for the students, and they would definitely kill two birds with one stone.
Ge Zheng sent 300 city defense forces to escort the first batch of funds of 100,000 US dollars to return to Portland Town with the mayor Avran. Tomorrow, he will send a guide to bring more than 1,000 students and teachers in the city to the town.
The construction of Portlandburg is in full swing. There is a quarry near the town. The students and workers have a clear division of labor: magic students use wind blades, and warrior students use fighting spirit to mine huge rocks, and the workers are responsible for transporting them back to the town.
The construction speed was also faster than Ge Zheng expected, and the technical level of this world was not behind. If Ge Zheng had developed a new power bridge earlier, the progress would have been faster now.
Ge Zheng occasionally visited Portland Town, but most of his experience was still on alchemy. Today, Ge Zheng decided to study the equations in the metal egg.
The equation was poured out from that crystal tube, a material similar to an oil canvas on Earth. Given that this equation is very ancient, Ge Zheng speculated that in the era when this equation was born, humans in the world of star refining might not have even invented papermaking.
Lay a piece of papyrus on the table, and Ge Zhengcai carefully expanded the equation on the paper.
In the pattern that caught my eye, something immediately attracted Ge Zheng's attention: in the center of the picture, a black pebbles were painted, and the surface of the pebbles naturally turned into a rabbit.
The pebbles were melting into a light green spring, flowing into a huge stone pillar.
This pebble looks familiar: isn't it the pebble he got from the projection equation? Ge Zheng was surprised that the green liquid was clearly the second work he refined from the projection equation. He originally thought it was a complete failure alchemy, and even the work was not formed. Unexpectedly, the final work was the light green liquid!
Ge Zheng understood a little: No wonder the level of the Eagle Demon God and the legendary Seventy-Two Demon Gods are so different. It seems that it is because the projection equation is in his own hands. The third prince’s Solomon Demon God Pillar lacks something. In other words, the third prince’s Solomon Demon God Pillar summoned must not be the body of the Demon God, but at most it is just a clone.
There are two rows of harvested grains on both sides of the stone pillar, which grow very tall and flush with the stone pillar, and are full of ears of grain.
Under the stone pillar is a lamp with the flames in the shape of an eyeball.
A unicorn is carved on the surface of the stone pillar, and a tree grows on the unicorn's back.
There are various strange alchemy symbols and magic languages around the equation. Ge Zheng roughly counts, and at least seven magic languages are involved!
The difference between this equation and the general equation is that the stone pillar. The stone pillar is both a material and a container. The green liquid poured into the stone pillar did not flow out. It was obvious that the stone pillar was hollow. However, he destroyed the Third Prince's Demon God Pillar with his own hands. It was obvious that the Demon God Pillar was solid. I don't know if it was the "refractory" of the Third Prince's Demon God Pillar or because there was another mystery after refining.
The stone pillars are very tall, and the grains are also very tall. Cereals that can rise to such a high are rare in the star refining world. However, the meaning of grains cannot be simply understood in this way. Cereals are as tall as stone pillars, and plants are as tall as giants.
The pain of seeds in alchemy often represents rebirth. The grains are full of ears of grain, and there are numerous rebirths.
