As Livy said, people have a lot of time to live freely, at least for the time being in northern Middle-earth, far away from Mordor.

The weather was sunny that day, and the road builders were working hard in the misty mountains. The cave entrances in the orc town were sealed one by one, and they were repaired into smooth roads and walls.

A huge and unprecedented tunnel through the mountain is being excavated. Its scale and space are even larger than the grand hall of Gushan. Many dwarves will come to take a look when they pass by. Some are worried, some are happy, and some are mixed. With mixed emotions.

"Fortunately, it's just a road...a passage."

Some dwarves went back muttering.

But this sentence may not be quite right.

Snap.

Lanterns hang on the walls or flicker in the dome, emitting their light and heat.

However, this space is too large, and it is obviously not enough to rely solely on lanterns or torches for lighting.

So the experience of the dwarves came in handy - some of their ancient buildings were larger than this, but the interior spaces were extremely bright.

This is all because they have a technology that can mix luminous stone with building materials, which allows them to make the hall luminous from top to bottom, from dome to floor, when needed, without having to worry about extra lighting. question.

Luminous materials or light wells - dwarves always have many ways to solve problems encountered underground.

According to some older dwarves with more knowledge, there are places in Moria that have enough light to grow crops. This caused the exits of Moria to be closed thousands of years ago when they were resisting Sauron's attack. Up, the dwarves can still rely on their own agricultural system to achieve a certain degree of self-sufficiency.

Problems always have solutions.

Thanks to the dwarf's craftsmanship, Levi also breathed a sigh of relief.

If he really couldn't find a solution for tunnel lighting, he would plan to go to hell and dig hundreds of boxes of glowstone back.

Of course, after all, it would be easy to get angry if you really do that.

Roadside fort.

There were a few clouds floating across the blue sky.

The sunshine in this season is not so intense, it is not as golden as in summer and autumn, and it is not as pale as the thick snow when winter officially begins.

It's just bright - and translucent.

Boom.

The city gate suddenly opened, and a burst of noise came.

On the Maolong tree, Xiaofen turned over in boredom, looking away from the dazzling glowing orb in the sky, blinking, and looking at the source of the noise at the city gate.

At this sight, the whole dragon stopped moving.

Have you been dazzled by looking at the sun for too long?

Questions popped into my little head.

It wasn't until the figure waved his hand to disperse the surrounding citizens and walked a long way towards the castle that Xiaofen suddenly started and happily jumped down from the tree, spread his wings and glided down. He rushed and fell right into Levi's arms.

clang!

The faucet banged loudly.

"You really don't feel any pain."

Levi gritted his teeth and rubbed the dragon's head twice, sent it aside to play, and then touched his breastplate twice.

This long-distance dive was enough to avoid losing any blood.

If it weren't for the knockback resistance, I might have to fly.

After such a trip, Xiaofen has grown up a lot. Anyway, in terms of size, he is already several times bigger than his playmate, the big yellow dog.

Almost as big as a pig.

Of course, growing up is definitely a good thing.

But the nature of some things also changes as you grow up.

Just like throwing yourself into your arms and acting like a spoiled child, you could still call it acting like a spoiled brat when you were a child...

When you grow up, you have to call it a dragon car.

The light of the beacon was still shining, reaching into the sky. Feeling the active vitality in his body, Levi pushed open the castle door that had not been moved for a long time, walked in on the wool carpet, and lay down on the simple seat in front of the beacon quite casually.

There is no trace of the manners or majesty that a lord should have.

A picture of salted fish.

Not going to bed, not even at night, Levi just leaned against the uncomfortable main seat of the castle, listening to the hustle and bustle outside, slowly closing his eyes, and his breathing gradually became steady.

At the outer wall of the castle, Xiaofen glanced in the direction of the hall, her movements much smaller.

It silently leaned against the wall and narrowed its eyes.

Early the next morning, just after dawn, the city came alive.

Groups of residents went to work as usual after breakfast. While doing the work they were good at, they chatted here and there, looking quite relaxed.

The housewife at home was thinking about today's recipe and watched her neatly dressed children walking to school with their school supplies.

The sound of neat footsteps and the sound of drills came from the newly built training ground. Several homeless people stood on the side of the military formation and discussed something. After a while, they dispersed and interspersed among the soldiers to provide guidance one by one.

Upon hearing that the lord had returned, the original community representative, Old Wade, came to the gate of the castle with some information. Along with him was Tabor, the first principal of Roadside Fort.

But just when the two of them reached the gate, a figure suddenly stood in front of the road, refusing to let them go forward.

The two old men looked helpless at the motionless little dragon standing in front of them.

"We are here to deliver some information to the lord, which is the development status and summary of various matters in the Roadside Fort during this period."

Since they didn't have much contact with Xiaofen, the two of them didn't know whether it could understand what they were saying, but regardless of whether it could understand it or not, the explanations that needed to be made still had to be done.

But obviously, at Xiaofen's age, it still doesn't understand much except eating.

It instinctively wanted to bark to remind the two, but after thinking about it, its vocabulary only had dog barking.

Levi said to bark less in the future, so it didn't bark again.

So Xiaofen shook his head.

Wade and Taber looked at each other and nodded at it.

Xiaofen continued to shake her head.

The two continued to nod, trying to make Xiaofen understand what they meant.

In a very strange atmosphere, the two people and the dragon were deadlocked.

"Are you playing the nodding and shaking head game?"

Click.

The castle gate opened, Levi stretched out, and at first glance saw two old men on the side of the road staring at Xiaofen.

This... Why did the roadside castle develop some new customs when I haven't been back for a while?

"No, sir, we are here to deliver information."

Wade blushed and quickly handed over the documents in his hand.

During this time, the old village chief also learned to write in school, so he no longer had to force himself to remember everything.

Seeing that Levi had woken up, the little pink head drooped, but he recovered his spirits in the next second and ran straight to the cafeteria.

Levi glanced at him and didn't stop him.

It seemed that the child hadn't eaten for at least several hours, so he must not be starved.

"Okay, I'll take a look later."

The information was put into the backpack.

Even though there was no inquiry for nearly a year, there were very few things that Roadside Castle needed to deal with and worry about, which was quite worry-free.

Especially in the case of comparison - the information handed over by Wade could not be considered work compared with the amount of information in River Valley City.
