My territory is filled with block creations.

Chapter 54 is a trap!

There weren't many people in the village, probably because it was daytime; everyone was busy with things they couldn't understand.

Or it could be moving a lot of things from one room to another, and then moving things from that room to a huge warehouse.

Some people take a large pile of blocks, flatten them on the ground, and then spread them out over a considerable area before someone else rolls them up.

Wait a minute, the rolled-up thing looks more and more like the cloth roll I got from Lester and the others before.

So, that's how those fine, soft, and breathable fabrics that look like they're made? What's the principle behind it? Is it glue?

Green felt a little dizzy.

But soon he saw something new. As several strange lights shone down on his face, he subconsciously raised his head and looked up at the sky.

Several oddly shaped long wooden planks hung straight up in the sky in a way that defied the laws of gravity. Supporting their weight was just a simple square pillar about one meter long and wide.

In addition, there were many long, rectangular, building-like objects stuck to the pillars. And connecting those structures was the culprit behind the strange lighting effects.

Several crystal-clear walkways, which look like the purest crystal or the finest glass, are made of glass.

"Ah, it seems Mr. Loren's guess was very accurate." Green exclaimed in sudden realization, "Leaving aside how they glued those long, narrow buildings to the pillars in mid-air, just considering the glazed tiles used to build these walkways, I can't even imagine how they did it without the king's help."

"Is that kind of thing very valuable?" Feng Yu asked, puzzled.

"If you stay in the forest for too long, you'll find that the glass from just this one boardwalk can buy half of the houses in the inner city of Autumn Wind Town."

Listening to Green's explanation, Feng Yu looked up at the several walkways in the sky and said, "Well, the properties I can't afford are flying freely in the sky."

Lester, who was leading the way, listened to the two whispering amongst themselves without showing any particular expression, and soon led them to Thorne's work area.

"This is our village chief," Lester said, and then left quite consciously, since he didn't think he should eavesdrop on the village chief's conversation.

As for the village chief's safety...

Don't tease me, Thorne laughed.

Green and Fengyu also very politely stepped onto the steps of the work area. Although there was no door, they knocked on the pillar before going in.

Then they saw the village chief of Redstone Village, an ordinary-looking, wise-looking middle-aged man, or perhaps an elderly man.

Naro sighed as he watched the two people walk straight toward him. This was the frustrating thing for him. Thorne had been informed of the outsiders' arrival in the village long ago, but he just wouldn't get off the sewing machine.

In this situation, an old man sitting at a desk and a strong man making a sewing machine, wouldn't a normal person feel that he is the real village chief?

What if the other party is genuinely sincere, but gets delayed by this awkward misunderstanding and decides that the village is unreliable?

To avoid that situation, Naro also stood up quickly, even faster than Green and Fengyu, two adventurers who had been through countless battles.

He walked straight toward the two of them, and his first words were: "I am just the administrator of Redstone Village. If you are looking for the village chief, please follow me."

And so, Green and his companion saw the village chief they had ever seen, the one who least resembled a village chief.

A man holding two pieces of cloth, sewing incessantly on a precious sewing machine, while constantly pedaling with his feet.

As soon as the man stood up, Green quickly dismissed one possibility that had been on his mind.

It would be rather impolite to think of a two-meter-tall man as a dwarf craftsman.

"Well, so you're the ones who came here to discuss cooperation, right?" Thorne said, then, feeling he hadn't been polite enough, added, "Have you eaten?"

"I just finished a dark bread, I'm not hungry yet." With Feng Yu's polite remark, Thorne nodded. "Then you'll probably be hungry soon. Let's eat in the village. Let's get down to business. What kind of cooperation are you talking about?"

At this moment, Green also took out letters sealed with sealing wax from his pocket and handed them to Thorne, who took the letters and led the two of them to sit down at the desk.

They even took out wooden bowls and filled two bowls with clean water for the two of them from the flowing water.

It was only then that they noticed a continuous stream of water in the corner of this empty room.

Is it because there are underground springs in this village? Or is the water drawn up from a river?

As the two were examining the room with inquisitive eyes, Thorne also focused intently on the letter in his hand.

The letter begins by revealing that the writer is none other than Loren, who had previously attempted to harm the village.

But it was clear that Mr. Loren in her mind had become a different person, as if he had forgotten all the things he had done before, and did not mention them at all.

Perhaps this was one of Loren's clever little schemes? Perhaps he didn't consider himself a vengeful person, or perhaps he considered himself particularly concerned with saving face?

If he doesn't bring it up himself, he'll assume he's forgotten about it. But if he does bring it up, even if he really wants to ignore that messed-up thing, he'll feel embarrassed and have to bite the bullet and refuse the cooperation.

Hmm? Okay, I'm still not good at understanding other people's thoughts. I'll just keep reading the letter. But there's one thing Loren was wrong about: he's extremely petty!

In short, I will get my revenge on the old man mentioned in the previous letter for everything he did to the village and Leicester.

However, as he continued reading, his desire to settle scores melted away like cream.

Not only did they proactively tell you the exact location of the iron block, but they also established a dedicated trade route with the village.

Cloth, hemp rope, paper, thread, wool—there's no longer any worry about finding a market for these items.

Moreover, Mr. Loren on the other side would also take the initiative to spend money to hire adventurers and mercenaries to attack the iron mine with him, and this mine was also jointly developed by the two parties.

hiss…

Such a good thing...

Why do I feel so uncertain?

Ah ~

It's a trap!
