Devouring Evolution Begins with Hedgehogs

Erlanster listened and nodded with a smile.

On the contrary, Bufix seemed to be in deep thought, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "How do you say that?"

Liu Ergou raised his hand, pointed to the refugees on the construction site in the distance, and said, "Unlike you, they came here by fleeing."

"Whether it's Erlanster or you, you have led your tribe to survive in this wasteland all year round, and you have long been used to living on your own."

"But they are different. These people were all citizens of Fermu before. In other words, these people are used to living under the protection of Devinston."

"For them, Devinston, the powerful earl, is the sky of Ferm, and the cornerstone of their existence."

"And now, the cornerstone has collapsed."

"For them now, what they need is not respect or friendship, which is something that decent big shots need. They now need a strong new lord to become their new backer."

"The reason why I follow De Lisi is because even though De Lisi herself is difficult to protect herself, in the eyes of these people, she is still a powerful 'Master Baron'."

"And it is precisely because of this that I, the 'lord', must show some majesty and build up confidence for them, so that I can feel that I have something to rely on."

"Then let's say that." Bufix's expression gradually became serious, "You also want to be a 'lord'?"

"How could it be?!" Liu Ergou couldn't help laughing, Bufix who laughed was a little puzzled.

After calming down, Ergou Liu said seriously to Bufix, "Do you think I look like the kind of person who rides on other people's heads and shit?"

"That's true." Bufix's expression softened a lot.

Looking at the town under his feet, Liu Ergou slowly said: "I did this to give them a little 'hope'."

"hope?"

"Yes, 'hope', this is what they need most now." Liu Ergou nodded. "It's like rescuing a half-starved person. You can't let him eat right away, but have to drink porridge first; for these people, you must first give this trivial but crucial hope."

"If they have hope, they will want to live; only those who want to live will have the possibility to change."

After Liu Ergou finished speaking, he turned around, looked directly into Bufix's eyes, and said word by word
"I said, I am your boss."

"What the boss means is that no matter what happens, I will lead you to rush up instead of watching you go up."

"I don't care about empires, Asahid...or other messy things. I only know that since I am your boss, I must be responsible to you."

"My Beiyuan City, I want to give a place to everyone who recognizes me as the boss. In this Beiyuan City, there are only me and my 'friends', and there is no 'lord lord'."

"So now, just trust me as you trusted me before."

After Liu Ergou finished speaking, he turned around and stared at the setting sun in the distance.

Bufix was completely stunned.He didn't expect that Liu Ergou, who is usually careless, would say such a thing now!

"You, after all these years, you are still the same stupid." On the other hand, Ernest smiled and poked Bufix with his cane.

"Stupid? You old bastard, how can I be stupid?" Bufix glared at Erlanster immediately, and then said falteringly: "I'm a warrior, how can I be like you mages? There are some evil ideas in Lijing!"

"Can the stupidity of a warrior be called stupid?" Bufix pricked his neck, defending with a red face.

"Yes, not stupid, but cute." Unexpectedly, Liu Ergou turned around suddenly, and patted Bufix solemnly.

"Pfft ha ha ha ha ha ha ha cute? Ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Eranster couldn't hold back anymore, tears of laughter were about to come out.

Liu Ergou on the side was laughing too, leaving only Bufix fluttered in the wind.

"It's so beautiful." After laughing for a while, Ernest also stared into the distance, and said with a little loss.

"Yeah, the sunset is so beautiful." Bufix murmured as he looked at the sunset that was about to turn the whole wasteland into gold.

"I said the town is so beautiful!" Ernest gave Bufix a white look.

"What I'm talking about is that the town under the sunset is so beautiful!" But Bufix had a rare cleverness, and choked Erlanster instead.

"I won't tell you, I have to go to the gate to set up a boundary marker. That boy Abel, who has grown so much flesh, can't even engrave 'Beiyuan Town'!" After making an excuse, Eranster wanted to run away.

"Wait!" Liu Ergou stopped Ernster.

"Make the stele at the gate bigger and more conspicuous." Liu Ergou thought for a while, and ordered Eranster, "Also, don't engrave Beiyuan Town. If you want to engrave it, engrave Beiyuan City! Anyway, this place will be sooner or later. It has to be turned into a city, so as not to have to work hard to carve it again later.”

"Bah, you said it lightly, it takes so much effort to engrave it so big? It's quite a toss, boss!" Eranster emphasized the word "boss" and continued.

How could Liu Ergou care about this with his face like a corner of a city wall?Not only that, he even leaned out half of his body, and greeted Eranster, who was drifting away downstairs, "Those who are capable work harder, and those who are capable work harder!"

Bufix shook his head at the side, his boss is good at everything, but he is not up to date, laughing and joking all day long.

"Come on, Bufix, we'll go down too. It's going to be windy tonight."

"Yes, boss."

After returning from the Sunset Mountains, De Lisi took Avril, and after requisitioning a big house, she didn't know what she was busy with all day long.

So today, our Great Lord Liu couldn't bear to be curious and knocked on De Lisi's door.

When the door opened, it was Burt who came out.

"Ah, it's the boss!" Bert greeted Liu Ergou as soon as he opened the door.

"Bert? Didn't you go to find honey with Hoffman? Why are you here?" Liu Ergou was also quite curious.

"That's right, Boss Hoffman and I went to find honey, but we got stung by bees several times, so I came to ask Doris to get some medicine."After Bert finished speaking, he raised a hand and showed it to Liu Ergou.

Sure enough, on the back of the thick bear paw, a layer of jelly-like green ointment has been applied, and it still smells a little fragrant.

"Hey! Boss Hoffman is still waiting for me. Boss, I'm leaving first." Burt greeted him and ran out in a hurry.

"Go, go!" Waving Bert off, Liu Ergou pushed the gate, intending to go in and find out.

But he didn't expect that when he opened the door, a large puff of smoke gushed out in front of his eyes, choking Liu Ergou to cough several times.

In the thick smoke, De Lisi and Avril Lavigne were wrapped up like two mummies, tearfully standing next to a cauldron, stirring something constantly. "Cough, cough, what are you two doing here?" Liu Ergou also choked on the thick smoke a few times, and asked them loudly.

"****...*" Mummy No. [-] raised his head, waved the long-handled spoon at Liu Ergou a few times, then lowered his head and continued to stir.

"What are you talking about? Smoke, cough, cough. The smoke is so loud that I can't hear it!" Liu Ergou felt that if he continued to be so drunk, he would be as drunk as a jerk.

Seeing this, Mummy No. [-] put down the spoon in his hand and walked straight towards Liu Ergou.Judging from the two tightly wrapped sticks on the head, this should be Avril Lavigne.

Pulling off the mask on her face, Avril was also coughed a few times due to choking, and then urged Liu Ergou: "You go out and wait, and I will tell you later!"

After finishing speaking, he threw Liu Ergou out and closed the door.

"boom!"

Looking at the closed door in front of him, Liu Ergou was completely confused.

"What are these two girls doing in there?" Bufix, who had just returned from the advanced base, happened to pass by here, and was very curious when he saw it.

Liu Ergou spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "How would I know? These two girls are all talking, and they just kicked me out without saying anything."

"But just now, I seemed to see the two of them cooking in a big pot?" After thinking about it, Liu Ergou added.

"Oh, that's Doris and Avril making healing ointment." The wild Eranster spawned next to Liu Ergou and explained to Liu Ergou.

"You scared me to death!" Liu Ergou hadn't recovered his breath just after coughing, but was startled by Eranster, and suddenly coughed again.

This old guy, like an elite wild monster, haunts and haunts all day long!
After finally calming down, Liu Ergou remembered what Erlanster said just now, "What healing ointment? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"It's literally a healing ointment, an ointment for treating trauma." Eranster spread his hands.

"The two of them came to me last week and wanted to apply for a big house to do research. Their plan was very detailed and the content was very feasible, so I approved it."

"Oh, so you approved it, no, I didn't know about it, why did you approve it? My boss or your boss?" Liu Ergou feigned anger, and poked Erlanster with his hand.

"Those who can do more work, you said that!" But Eranster had already seen through what he meant, and Liu Ergou slapped Liu Ergou back with one sentence and two supercilious eyes.

"Besides, you run to the smelting furnace every day when you get up, and you don't come back until dinner. You don't see anyone all day long. Even if the two of them ask you for approval, they can't find anyone."

At the end, Erlanster squeezed Liu Ergou again with his elbow, and said to him in a very soft voice: "Whatever you say, can I still cheat you?"

Of course Liu Ergou knew what he meant, and replied in the same subtle voice: "Of course I know. But there are so many people, at least give me some face as the boss."

Seeing Liu Ergou and Eranster winking, Bufix also looked helpless.None of the old and the young is a fuel-efficient lamp, and I, an honest person, was kept in the dark when I co-authored.

Bufix immediately decided that he would stay away from the two of them no matter what he said in the future, so as to save himself from knowing that he would be sold by their partnership one day, and had to count the money for them.

At this moment, with a loud bang, the door finally opened.

In the thick smoke billowing out, Avril Lavigne stood on the steps, raised her hands high, and chanted loudly to the people under the steps in a chant-like tone

"Come on, devout believers! Cough, cough. Thanks to the blessing of the God of War, our ointment No. [-] has finally been developed! Who is pulling my tail! Don't pull it loose. Help."

Before Avril had lost her nerve, a hand stretched out from the thick smoke and pulled Avril back.

Followed by a distraught voice: "Don't be so nervous! Come back and clean up! You knocked down a whole shelf just now, you know!"

Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Liu Ergou couldn't help laughing, and turned to greet the others: "Let's go, let's go in and have a look."

Bufix nodded and waved his wings, a gust of wind blew away the thick smoke at the door.

Without the cover of thick smoke, Liu Ergou could see the situation in the house clearly.

Like other reserved functional areas, this big house is divided into upper and lower floors.Now, the ground floor is lined with workbenches and shelves along the walls.There are even a few closets on the wall, filled with bottles and jars of different colors.

Almost most of the workbenches are filled with strangely shaped instruments.It's just that Liu Ergou looked around for a week, but found that most of the instruments were made by hand with simple materials, except for a few instruments that looked extraordinarily precise.

On the floor in the middle of the first floor, there is a huge square stone slab inlaid.A magic circle was laid out by pouring on the stone slab, and the cauldron before was at the center of the magic circle.

In addition, on the floor by the door, there is a small shelf lying down, and there are various pots and pans scattered beside it, presumably the one Avril knocked over.

Avril Lavigne is beside this small shelf at the moment, tidying up dejectedly.

"Hey" Liu Ergou stepped forward and patted Avril Lavigne, "What kind of stimulation did you get just now?"

But I didn't expect that Avril's neck turned red to the tips of her ears in an instant, and she wished she could quickly find a mouse hole and get in!After holding back for a long time, I said softly to Liu Ergou: "I just want to learn from sister Seattle."

"Oh" Liu Ergou deliberately elongated his voice, but Avril's face turned even redder.

However, looking at the layout in the hall, Liu Ergou always felt a little familiar?
"That's right, I made the layout with reference to the experimental hall in the ruins." Doris came over and confirmed Liu Ergou's thoughts.

Pointing to the magic circle on the ground again, "This magic circle is also the one I refer to from the recycling center. It is processed with the batch of materials we brought back. Although it is much less efficient than the original made by the silver elf, but At least it’s much better than hand-carved ones.”

"Which batch of materials? Oh, you mean the batch of replaced guide rails? Isn't that scrap?" Liu Ergou thought for a while and asked De Lisi.

"Scrap is not bad, and I'm not as capable as the silver elves. But even if the structure is scrapped, the material is still a magic-guiding material. It's better to melt it into a magic circle than to carve it on a stone."

"Besides, I just made a fire element enchantment and used it to refine medicine. It doesn't have much output, so this is enough."

After De Lisi finished speaking, she picked up a small pot on the ground, walked to the big pot, filled some ointment, and handed it to Liu Ergou.

Liu Ergou looked at the pot in his hand, the milky white ointment inside had almost cooled down, no longer bubbling and bubbling.On the contrary, it has a shiny and delicate appearance, and it smells a little sweet.

No matter how you look at it, Liu Ergou felt that he was holding a pot of cream in his hand.
