Chapter 64 Cellar-type granaries!

Carlos wrapped his arms around them and watched the two of them in silence, two people who looked quite old individually were very active instead of dull when they came across each other.

  Carlos quite enjoyed this kind of atmosphere, probably because of the relationship between the otherworldly rebirth, Carlos had a deeper vicissitude in the depths of his thoughts than his peers at a not-so-old age.

  In the face of Eranster's provocation, Bufex didn't sneer back, and he didn't know if it was because he didn't care or he didn't want to, but he was silent anyway, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

  When Bufex didn't respond, Elanst didn't say much, the cane poked heavily at the ground, the green gem at the top of the cane turned yellow, followed by an earthy yellow halo spreading outwards with the cane as the center.

  A rich, earthy yellow glow gathered in both of Eranster's hands, and with that glow, Eranster slapped his hands to the ground.

  Then a large area of the land sunk downwards, and the sunken part continued to encroach in all directions, and the range was still expanding outwards, and the earth shook around the center of Erlangest!

  The earth dented downward for a distance of two Carlos' height before stopping, vertically this height was enough, and then it was widening horizontally, but it was only a short time before the horizontal growth tapered off, at this point this width wasn't quite enough, the stopping was a bit hasty.

  The yellow glow in the gem at the top of the cane had dimmed to the point of invisibility, and was replaced by an extremely intense dark blue glow, which toward the end should have been the result of all of the earth attribute energy that had been stockpiled in the gem being depleted.

  "That's fine as it is, I'll just have Hoffman bring someone in afterward to make it a little wider, you don't want to force it!"

  This statement Carlos was sincere in not wanting Eranster to be too tired, not half as much as he meant to use agitation.

  But how is it so awkward to say that in this situation!

  The speaker doesn't mean it, but the listener does!

  As soon as he heard Carlos' words, the veins on Elanst's forehead burst into flames all of a sudden!

  The glow of the jewel at the top of the cane remained dim, but the ground beneath his feet moved again, this time a faint yellow glow lingered around Elenster's body!

  Inside the gem was a reserve of magical energy in advance, and now Eranster was extracting the magical energy directly to replenish the consumption, and then it went through a complicated process of absorption and transformation in his body before finally acting on the ground.

  This time the expansion was much faster than before, quickly expanding to three times its original size, but still, Elenster had no intention of stopping, and the sunken land continued to expand!

  "Enough already!

  It can stop!"

  Carlos shouted in panic.

  After shouting it still expanded for a while longer, and it was only when the yellow glow from Elenst's body completely dissipated that the sunken land slowly stopped expanding.

  Eranster slowly stood up, holding onto his cane, the veins on his forehead gradually coming back down, just a strange blush surfacing on his cheeks, and standing up Eranster couldn't stop gasping for air.

  Gathering and using so much magical energy at once was a bit of a stretch even for a Blazing Sun Magician, not to mention that Eranster was so old that his body's tolerance was not as great as it used to be.

  "A little tired of having to give in to old age!

  Whew!"

  Erlangist mentally sighed, then took a deep breath in and slowly exhaled it out as a way to get his breath evened out, or else look a bit of a mess.

  "Are you okay?"

  Carlos asked with concern.

  "This level is nothing, you're worrying too much, Priest-sama!"

  Erlangist straightened up and said blandly.

  "Oh, it's good that it's fine, such a large underground warehouse, it's amazing that it was constructed so quickly, it's really worthy of being a Blazing Sun Magician!

  It's really awesome!"

  Things had been accomplished beyond previous expectations, and Carlos didn't mince his words of praise.

  "The priest-sama is flattered."

  Elenster said with a slight bow of humility.

  "With things done here, then from tomorrow onwards we'll start building the church, and you, Priest-sama, will start learning the Blessing Battle Hymn, so I'll come back to harangue you when the church is finished."

  Bufex said flatly.

  After saying that, Bufex directly opened his wings and flew away, the brown wings were very wide when fully opened, the strong wind brought up between the incitement showed the power belonging to this pair of wings, and Carlos would have found it a little more handsome if he hadn't swung the dust up.

  "Good, take your time."

  Carlos said with narrowed eyes, and wondered if Bufex he had finally heard.

  The cold and straightforward character of Bufex was still more than acceptable to Carlos, saying what he had to say, dryly.

  "This guy, Bufex, is always this widowed."

  Erlangist said helplessly.

  "You say he's reticent, but aren't you guys good friends?"

  Carlos said this for no reason.

  Carlos didn't elaborate, and neither did Eranster.

  Then there was nothing much to do, and Eranster left, and Eranster walked away still a little unaware of what was going on.

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

  In fact, Carlos envied this kind of friendship, this kind of relationship is very comfortable, do not have to deliberately have no words to talk about, but want to talk about anything immediately, and do not have to worry about running out of things to talk about.

  "Alas, to learn to sing, and to organize and repair the storehouse, I am truly the humblest of lords."

  Carlos said with a sigh.

  Then Carlos began to work, the underground warehouse that had just been constructed could not be put into use right away, what was the difference between throwing it in directly and burying a corpse in the earth, it would definitely rot if it was buried directly.

  So Carlos had to make a barrier, Carlos used the coalesced Thorn Vine Mann to plaster all four walls of the warehouse, at the bottom Carlos found some dry planks to line the bottom, and then threw all the piles of Wraith corpses into the pit.

  The quantity was too much Carlos would have to move it for a long time if he was alone, Carlos shouted over the Bell Bear warriors who were eating barbecue meat, Hoffman, the kid still looks like he's avoiding labor, he actually tried to sneak and hide!

  "What are you hiding for?

  Want to eat and be lazy?

  Beautiful you!"

  Caught up, Hoffman was of course given a hard ideological lesson by Carlos.

  "No, I just want to eat some more, after all, it's only when you're full that you have the strength to work!"

  Hoffman always had plenty of excuses about eating.

  "Cut the sophistry!

  Hurry up and move, there's plenty of meat for you to eat afterward."

  With Carlos being gracious, Hoffman dutifully went to move, and Carlos certainly wasn't idle.

  The prerequisite for what one asks others to do is to lead by example, which has always been Carlos' approach to management.

  Under Carlos' leadership, everyone worked together, and the huge mountain of magical beast meat was emptied little by little, and eventually transferred completely to the warehouse.

  To seal the top, Carlos got a lot of long strips of stone and filled them one by one across the room until the top was completely sealed.

  When you take it, you have to remove the slate first, and the construction is more like a cellar, which is a little bit off from what was intended, but it all serves pretty much the same purpose.

  "This cellar is the future granary, what am I going to learn next, the Blessed Battle Hymn?

  Shelia can't do it herself!"

Can Carlos teach himself without a good enough teacher?

  The answer is no Blessed Battlecry ah, a bit hard to get, anyway at least go get the Ritual Codex from Shelia first and see what it's like.

  "What is Shelia doing?"

  Carlos craned his head to ask Hoffman.

  At that moment Hoffman was straining with one hand to lift a slab of stone, while the other hand reached in and fumbled with it, which had only just been put in place, and Hoffman was thinking of stealing the meat!

  This gluttonous gluttony of Hoffman's is getting worse!

  "What are you doing!"

  Carlos saw Hoffman's meat-stealing move and immediately drank!

  Hoffman was so startled that the hand holding up the slab shivered, and the slab came right off and smashed down, hitting the other hand squarely!

  "Ah!"

  Hoffman, with a cry of misery, hastened to lift the corner of the slab with all his might, and, lifting it until there was a gap between the hand that was crushed underneath and the slab, he hastened to draw it out, a quick process.

  But even after being squeezed for only a split second, Hoffman's hand was still red and swollen from the pressure, and the slabs Carlos had chosen were not light in weight!

  !

  "Hiss~" Carlos turned around to witness the whole process of Hoffman being smashed, and looking at the tight squeeze, Carlos couldn't help but suck in a breath of cool air!

  It's also Hoffman's thick skin that can stand up to being tossed around.

  If it were any other person, being pressed that hard, that hand could be bloodied and wasted right away!

  "Let's make you steal food that you want again!

  It's not nice to be caught in a stone slab, is it!"

  Carlos even came over and knocked Hoffman on the head, then gloated quite a bit.

  Hoffman is sitting on the ground rubbing his wrists and keeps blowing into the squeezed one, Hoffman's two hands are now different sizes.

  The hand that was squeezed was a full size larger than the other normal hand!

  And it's red, like a red-hot bear paw!

  "Hoo-hoo!

  It's not because you suddenly startled me!

  Hoo-hoo!

  Besides, didn't you just say I'd help you move it and I'd have plenty of meat to eat afterward?

  Hoo-hoo!

  I'll get it myself if I want it!

  And you're scaring me!

  Hoo-hoo!"

  Hoffman said as he kept blowing on his hand, which was squeezed as if it were going to burn, surprisingly hot, and if he didn't blow on it it would be very hard to bear, red and swollen and painful that's what it was!

  It feels better when you keep blowing on it, but as soon as you stop, it's just a cure for the symptoms!

  Seeing that Hoffman was getting tired of blowing all the time, Carlos condensed a block of ice out of his freezing spit and wrapped it in a cloth for him to put on his hand.

  "Whew~" The cold, soothing feeling made Hoffman let out a long breath, and he didn't have to keep blowing.

  "I did say, after you move there is plenty of meat for you to eat, but not just eat, this is put in it but everyone's rations, you want to eat just come to take, what will other people think, if you start this, then everyone does this is not a mess!

  The granary exists not only to store food, but also to control and distribute it after it has been uniformly collected!"

  Carlos said.

  "So am I allowed to eat meat now or not?

  !"

  Carlos spoke bitterly, but Hoffman didn't seem to be listening, all he cared about was whether or not he had any meat on his bones.

  Listening to Hoffman's questions, which were both direct and plain, Carlos felt a sudden surge of frustration and powerlessness, and was somewhat speechless.

  "Yes!"

  With that said Carlos lifted the slab straight up, and a great deal of flesh was revealed uncovered.

  "The people who came to move just now, each of them can take out the meat of two magical beasts!"

  Carlos said to everyone in the room.

  Everyone is a little confused, just now Hoffman was educated about stealing meat, now how come he's allowed to take it again?

  Despite the doubts, the food was tempting and open for the taking, so it was a no brainer!

  In a little while, everyone took it, Hoffman's hand was not handy right now, and for his share, Carlos took it out for him, then Carlos slowly put the tablet down and said to the crowd.

  "What about this just now, it's called distribution!"

  The theory doesn't make sense, so it can only be explained by practical applications.

  The Bell Bear warriors and Hoffman, who was sitting on the ground, stared at Carlos in disbelief, as if they understood something and as if they understood nothing.

  "That means you can't just come in here and get food from now on, understand?"

  Carlos added.

  This time they nodded together, probably getting it, but who knew if Hoffman or whoever else would sneak in here to get some meat when they were hungry, and it was hard to make sure that the caretaker wouldn't be supervising if he sent someone to watch.

  "Still, when the beasts are confronted with food,, the drive of primitive instincts is still very strong, but you can't pin your hopes on their own self-control, there has to be mandatory protection!

  It seems that I need to learn about the placement and construction of magical boundaries from Elenster, and it's only fair to set up boundaries around the granary to protect it!"

  Carlos thought darkly, especially after seeing Hoffman's fiery gaze on the tablet!

  With one more thing to learn, Carlos suddenly felt busy!

  "Good to know, there's nothing more to do now, so let's all go back to resting."

  Carlos waved his hand, signaling that everyone could go.

  Hoffman got up dragging the beast's meat with one hand and was about to leave as well when Carlos stopped him.

  "What's wrong?"

  Hoffman was a little puzzled.

  "What was Shelia doing when I called for you?"

  Carlos asked.

  "At that time, everyone was gathered for a barbecue, and Ms. Shelia just seemed to be fidgeting, and I didn't see her doing much of anything!

  After returning from the Sunset Mountains in the afternoon, Ms. Hylia has often sat alone, and I don't know what she's thinking about."

  Hoffman said thoughtfully.

  "So."

  Carlos nodded and then didn't ask any more questions, and Hoffman, seeing that Carlos didn't have anything he wanted to say either, hugged the meat and walked away.

  "Is Hylia still thinking about that battle dragon thing in the afternoon, when she came out she looked so lost, how to comfort her, I'm really not good at coaxing girls!"

  Carlos had a bit of a headache, a feeling that was worse than being rubbed against the ground by that gargoyle.

  After pondering for a long time, Carlos decided to go talk to Shelia.

  Beside the fire, Hylia was sitting motionless on her knees with the Ritual Codebook in her arms, her large crystal clear eyes mapping the burning throbbing flames, not knowing what she was thinking about.

  "Shelia?"

  Carlos walked into a soft purr.

  Shelia's body shook a little, a little dazed, and she looked back, her eyes a little red, and seeing that it was Carlos, Shelia gently rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand, clumsily disguising her emotions, and as a result, her eyes became give redder.

  It was only then that Carlos realized that Shelia still had undried tears hanging from the corners of her eyes!
