Author: It’s really late at night

After a while, Sara left with the order.

Thanos began to invest in research again.

After three days.

As inspiration continued to pour out, most of the steps of the ziggurat soon began to be perfected.

From absorbing soul fragments, to gathering them, and then synthesizing them into will-o'-the-wisps, and then gathering them again, and then turning them into will-o'-the-wisps again.

Although many people oppose the relocation of the cemetery, it is still proceeding slowly.

The reason why some people object is because the appearance of four hundred refugees has caused the originally sparse population to become dense again.

And who would want a cemetery next to them?

After all, I don’t feel at ease sleeping at night.

Even if it was said that the indigenous people might use the corpses to vent their anger, some people still objected.

However, Thanos basically ignored this and then forcibly relocated.

After all, Fengling City is about to be evacuated now, and without official suppression, who cares about the civilians.

But on this day, I suddenly received news from Heiye Tower, saying that a new administrator, financial officer and police station officer would be sent over in a few days.

Obviously, this is Black Leaf Tower trying to replace Wind Chime City.

Of course, Thanos was completely unwilling to do this.

After all, he is doing well as a local emperor in Zixi Town, so who would want a few people to restrain him?

And what if he disagrees with the relocation of the cemetery and hinders his plan to build a ziggurat.

However, he could not resist Black Leaf Tower's appointment.

After all, it is impossible for him to leave the Black Leaf Tower for the time being, unless he becomes an official wizard and has a better way out.

So after thinking about it, he called Sumant, Sara and Marco to come over and discuss it together.

night.

The curfew begins at eight o'clock in Zixi Town.

This is mainly due to the sudden increase in refugees and the surge in crime time, so it is implemented for everyone's safety.

At this time, a carriage began to move forward slowly in the night of curfew.

When the soldiers saw the carriage, they had no intention of stopping it, but the two people on the carriage still had sad faces.

"Sara, you said that Black Leaf Tower sent someone to take our place this time, is it true?"

"Chief Marco, since the mayor asked us to come over for discussion, it means it must be true."

"Isn't it always the Fengling City Manager who appoints the internal affairs officer? How come it's Black Leaf Tower's turn?"

"How could I know this? When we get to the mayor's house, it will become clear when we ask."

"Oh, this is the seat I bought for fifty gold coins, and my butt is still hot."

"Stop pretending in front of me. Have you forgotten what I do?"

When Marco remembered that the woman in front of him was a tax collector and someone who managed finances, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped crying.

Yes, in the past few years in Zixi Town, because the previous wizard apprentices almost didn't care about anything, they were not less corrupt.

But I really don't want to let him leave this position.

After all, as a police chief, he can still dominate. Once he loses this position, he is just a rich ordinary person.

After a while, the two of them arrived at the mayor's home in a carriage.

At this time, Ai Ruo seemed to know the arrival of the two men, so he opened the door and let the carriage in.

There was a "bang..." sound.

As the door closed and looking at the gloomy house, Marco stepped out of the carriage and suddenly trembled with fear.

"Two adults, Lord Thanos is waiting for you upstairs. Come with me."

After saying that, Ai Ruo took the lead and walked forward.

Seeing Sara and Airo walking away, Marco could only bite the bullet and follow them.

But after a while, he began to regret it.

Because he saw two skeletons standing upright at the door of the house.

And the skull with green soul fire makes people feel scared when they look at it.

What's more, it's still night, and there's only a lone moon in the sky, which adds an aura of terror.

In the next second, Ai Ruo opened the door and quickly disappeared into it with Sara, as if they were swallowed by the house.

Marco looked even more frightened when he saw this.

But after thinking about it, he bravely walked in.

There's nothing you can do about it. After all, your future is at stake. If you don't go in even when you're at the door, don't you think you don't want to do it anymore?

As he passed the two skeleton soldiers at the door, his calves trembled.

As we got closer, the skeleton soldiers looked even more eerie and terrifying.

This is also why wizards from other factions look down on undead wizards.

Because the appearance of the undead is really not lovable.

Finally, Marco closed his eyes and walked quickly into the house.

He originally thought that the situation would improve when he got inside, but he found that he was terribly wrong.

Because there are more skeleton soldiers in the house, basically one sentry every three steps and one sentry every five steps.

There is a feeling that one has entered the underworld.

At this moment, Ai Ruo suddenly appeared in front of him holding a candlestick.

"My lord, the mayor is waiting for you upstairs. Please hurry up."

Hearing this, Marco immediately followed quickly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

In fact, don't blame him for being timid.

No matter how ordinary people come to Thanos' house for the first time, they will feel scared.

The reason why Thanos is so tightly guarded at home is of course because he is afraid that Peart will jump over the wall and assassinate him.

After a while, Marco finally came to Thanos' office and saw the long-lost light.

At this time, Thanos was sitting behind his desk, checking the development report of Zixi Town in the past few days.

Although the appearance of four hundred refugees has brought a certain degree of security difficulties to Zixi Town, mining at the Zixi Mine has resumed.

It is expected that in a month, ten more carriages filled with purple tin ore will set off.

But apart from the mining industry, other industries are becoming increasingly difficult.

As more and more indigenous people appear, the planting industry, clothing industry, taverns, etc. have all been hit to a certain extent.

This kind of development can be called abnormal and unsustainable development.

Once the purple tin mine is dug, the town will have no basis for its existence.

However, he didn’t think about the issue of sustainability for the time being, so he didn’t make too many changes.

But there was a problem that he had to face.

It is the wages and consumption of the miners.

There are more than 300 miners in the Purple Tin Mine, and each person's salary averages from fifty silver coins to one gold coin per month.

In other words, he still has to pay a salary of about two hundred gold coins every month.

In addition, miners need gold coins to maintain their three meals a day, consumption of heads and mine carts, etc.

The 400 gold coins earned in the previous batch were all used to buy resources and food, so this month's salary was not paid out.
