Release that Witch - Chapter 675

[Chapter 666 Good News and Bad News]

A week later, Roland returned to the border area from Longsong Fortress.

As soon

as he entered the castle, he received two pieces of good news. The first one was brought by Barov, “Your Majesty, the astrologers from the old royal capital arrived in Neverwinter three days ago. Together with the artisans, Together with the apprentices and their family members, there are a total of 312 people. I placed nine astrologers in the diplomatic building, and temporarily arranged the others in the reception area.”

The group finally came, and Roland ordered after a moment of pondering Said, “A welcome banquet will be held in the square in the evening, and I will let the citizens know that there is another school of sages in Neverwinter.”

Like alchemy, astrology has a high reputation among the people. Only the capital will have both organizations at the same time.

Now that the astrological associations have all rushed to the western region, the title of Neverwinter’s new royal capital will be more easily accepted by everyone.

But Roland doesn’t need this astrology and divination. What he really likes is the calculation ability of astrologers.

For the mathematics of this era, they are definitely at the forefront. Whether calculating the calendar or estimating the orbits of stars, a lot of calculations are required.

With the relevant knowledge of middle and advanced mathematics, they can undoubtedly go a step further on the original basis.

He intends to set up a school of mathematics, so that these people can devote their time to calculations except occasionally watching the world-destroying star. In the age without computers, it is the most efficient choice for many scholars to complete some complex calculations together.

Whether it is laying railroad tracks in the future, building large ships, installing fortress guns on mountains, and writing shooting manuals, their assistance is needed.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Barov nodded, and then asked, “I don’t know that your long trip…”

“There are a lot of problems,” Roland didn’t need to hide when facing the head of the city hall, “Mr. Song’s second-level city hall has already experienced dereliction of duty and corruption, many forged accounts were found in the scrolls, and even two corrupt officials were caught among the officials transferred from the border area.”

Hearing this sentence Barov couldn’t help swallowing his words, “Are they my disciples?”

Roland was amused by the other party’s cautious appearance, and he shook his head helplessly, “Even if they are your disciples, I won’t blame you Come on, take it easy.”

“Your Majesty is wise,” Barov said hastily, “then the former townspeople?”

“Well, the second batch of graduates will enter the city hall after passing the assessment, and then they will be transferred to Changge District with the whole team,” Roland sighed, “As of today, it’s only been less than a year.”

At present, the city hall has cultivated a group and a half of leadership teams, one is Changge District, which is almost completely copied according to the model of Border Town, plus The local Honeysuckle Peiluo, Elk Ren, and some minor nobles supplemented, except that the number of people was slightly lower than here, the rest were all available.

The other half was the group that went to the Fallen Dragon Territory. There were not many people. Apart from assisting Earl Speer to maintain the political situation, the secondary task was to try to establish the framework of a second-level city hall.

With the Northland Bachelor brought back by Edith Kant to participate in the governance study of the city hall, Roland may be able to make up half of them in a short time.

He has reserved this group of people for the extreme south.

When it comes to what talent is the most scarce, it is undoubtedly these local officials who can carry out their will.

Without them as a foundation, even if Roland conquered the entire Graycastle, he would not be able to quickly gather the kingdom’s resources. The local government is an important part of centralization. He can use witches to quickly advance the level of technology, but he can’t conjure a lot of middle, Grassroots officials come.

Those enfeoffed nobles will never obediently obey his orders. In the eyes of the feudalists, the only important thing is the one-third of an acre of land they occupy.

Therefore, every person with administrative experience is a rare asset. Now that several people have been lost at once, Roland is naturally a little depressed.

Although the corruption of the organization is inevitable, he thought that he could persist for more than ten years, but he didn’t expect such a problem to appear in just one year.

The fact that the two ink-corrupters were all born civilians also proved from a certain aspect that once they have power, they may be more likely to lose their way than the nobles.

“Those who violated the law…”

“They were dealt with severely,” Roland spread his hands, “to set an example for others.”

In this way, it should be able to maintain the ability to use Nightingale and Scroll for a few more years, and it is not a problem to maintain the cleanliness of the organization for the time being, but he also knows that this cannot continue, otherwise the witch will easily be pushed to the forefront again, and the next time the enemy will come from within.

“Let everyone in the city hall gather in the castle hall tomorrow, and I will personally hold a short meeting with them to talk about the importance of discipline and responsibility.”

Of course, there are also rewards and punishments. They should know how to choose.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Barov bowed.

Looking at the back of the boss leaving, Roland took a sip of tea with satisfaction.

He knew that the other party was serving his purpose, enjoying the satisfaction brought by power itself while pursuing power, and at the same time being able to use power well. Barov was undoubtedly a very suitable person for the new regime.

Perhaps in the future city hall, only he can counter Edith’s edge.

The second piece of good news comes from Wendy.

“Evelyn’s ability has evolved?” Roland was slightly taken aback when he heard the news.

In his impression, Evelyn’s magic power indicators are very balanced, and she doesn’t look outstanding. He didn’t expect that she would become the first witch to evolve on Sleeping Island, which really surprised him .

“Yes… Agatha has confirmed this, but…” Wendy smiled wryly, “The ability after evolution is too weird, I don’t know how to describe it.”

“Bring her to the office to see you

Me,” he said enthusiastically.

…

When Evelyn walked into the third floor of the castle, she was still carrying several glass bottles.

Roland noticed that each bottle was filled with liquids of different colors.

“Her magic power looks like a gray ball…” Nightingale

‘s voice came from next to her ear, “but the shape is not fixed.”

“What about the total amount of magic power?”

Between Agatha.”

Roland nodded and looked at Evelyn, “What’s in it?”

“The drinks I created with my abilities these days,” her tone seemed a little low, “they taste different, and I don’t have any taste at all.” Ways to control the final result…the only thing they have in common is that they can all be drunk.”

“Drinks?”

Roland’s curiosity surged into his heart irresistibly.

He found several teacups and poured himself a cup of each.

When he took the first sip of the light blue drink, he tasted an indescribable deliciousness, like a mixture of various fruit juices, with a hint of refreshing coldness.

Heck, just drinkable?

This is too delicious!
