MTL - For Thousands of Years, My Weakest Brother Has Become a Demon King (1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King)-Chapter 28 planning
Chapter 28 Planning
"Contract?"
asked Sigmons, feeling his voice tremble for some reason.
"I want to rebuild the Watcher of the End, so naturally the mason monastery as the logistics department will also rebuild. I will give you a month, if you can lead these people to completely excavate the Dusk Fortress within this month's time. , that will prove your worth, and I will personally bestow on you the title of candidate mason."
Rebuild the Doomsday?
Who in the entire Vic continent is qualified to say this?
Sigmons didn't dare to think deeply, but a possibility made him tremble a little.
Although he didn't know what the Mason Order was or what the title of the mason candidate was, he understood that whether or not to cross this portal today was probably the biggest decision in his life.
But does this kind of thing still require a choice?
He stepped through the portal.
At the moment of crossing, Sigmons felt a slight tingle of the hair standing up, but it was only fleeting. Immediately, unlike the turbid and dull environment under the mine, a breath of fresh air came.
At this moment, he was already at the pass of a certain mountain range, and the dilapidated and majestic fortress stood not far away.
He turned around and waved to the crowd on the other side of the portal, indicating that he was fine, and the other miners also followed through the portal.
But the presiding judge stood on the other side and didn't move. After a while, when everyone passed by, he raised the casting medium in his hand, and a deep darkness passed through the portal and fell into the empty space in front of the crowd. on the ground.
Three pitch-black circles appeared in the open space, and three tall knights rose from the circles. They were wrapped in heavy armor, one held a giant sword, one held a halberd, and the other held a big axe. They stood on standby like sculptures, and a faint red light emanated from their visors.
Seeing these three knights suddenly appearing, panicked voices broke out from the crowd.
Legendary summoning spell [Netherworld Knight].
"Don't be afraid!"
said the presiding judge.
"They are my servants, and they will serve as your guards in the next time. If they encounter an enemy, they will sacrifice their lives to protect you."
The presiding judge's voice came through the portal, and then he threw something at Sigmons.
Sigmons caught it, and it was a full package.
"Barano, the compressed food of the elves, you can take one piece for three days, and the food here is probably enough for all of you for a week. After that, I will open a special portal to deliver supplies for you."
Sigmons opened the package, which contained several boxes of delicate flakes.
He has heard of the food of Balano. It is a high-end luxury item for the forest elves of Jade Province. This food is even included in the tribute to the royal family every year. Change in flavor and texture.
This is truly aristocratic food. Even a small piece of Balano can sell for dozens of gold riel in the black market of Thorns.
If these boxes of Balano are real, they are worth enough to hire them for ten years.
Sigmons weighed the box in his hand, with only one thought in his mind at the moment.
I made the right choice.
"If there is anything else you need, bring it up now."
said the presiding judge at the other end of the portal.
…
When William closed the portal, he looked back at the remaining miners.
"If you guys want to join now, it's too late."
In fact, if he just wanted to dig the ruins, he didn't need to hire these miners at all.
He only needs to spend a little more energy and time to summon various elemental servants to complete all this.
It is more efficient, requires less resources, and is more secure.
But he can't always do everything by himself.
Before coming to the Silver Stream Mine, he experienced three days of life in the City of Thorns.
The three days of seeing and hearing in the City of Thorns made him have to admit that he would not be able to appear as William Kane for a long time.
In fact, he was vaguely aware of this after he learned that he had traveled for a thousand years, but he has been refusing to admit it subconsciously.
As the leader of the Doomsday Watcher, the presiding judge of the Thirteenth Tribunal, the commander-in-chief of the Alliance for Salvation, the Calamity of the Moon, the Sealer of the Seven Calamities, the Magical Transformer, the Guardian of the Holy Spirit, the Honorary Lord of the Seven Worldly Kingdoms... Want to hide your name?
You must know that the emperor of the Kos Empire would bow his head and salute him when he saw him, and the incarnation of the Void King had to call him the biggest obstacle to conquering the Vic Continent.
It is precisely because of this mentality that when Liliana asked him his name, he didn't even think about it for a long time and directly reported his name.
Now that I think about it, it was really too hasty at the time.
He only listened to Liliana's family before, but after three days in the city of Thorns, he really felt the weight of the name "William Kane".
From the scriptures preached by the priest in the Holy Spirit Church and the religious paintings on the stained glass of the church, down to the testimony of the common people when they swear and the objects of blessing on the door. In the City of Thorns, he could hear or see his name almost every few steps he took.
is also because of this, when the name becomes a symbol, a custom and even a belief, it has nothing to do with William Kane himself.
As long as someone acts in his name, he will reinterpret the meaning of his name according to his own understanding.
In the past thousand years, there have never been fewer people under his banner: the founding emperor who claimed to be his reincarnation; countless failed rebels who claimed to be his reincarnation; after his name was elevated to the Holy Spirit, never The major denominations of the Holy Spirit Church who have stopped arguing; there are bards who continue to add fuel to the legends of unknown numbers, and all living beings who grew up listening to those legends and regarded him as some kind of sustenance.
The name William Kane can be used today to represent everything, but not himself.
Similarly, he cannot use this name to regain his former identity and power.
Even now the church is promoting the teachings in his name, and even the imperial family must claim to have his bloodline to demonstrate the legitimacy of their governance.
But that has nothing to do with him.
If the royal family and the church really knew that he was back, the first thing they would do would definitely not be to offer him a crown and a scepter, but to kill him at all costs.
All they want is the name itself, not a living person.
William considers himself strong, but to regain his original identity, it is not enough to rely on pure strength.
Manpower is limited after all.
He needs new followers, he needs to support his forces, he needs to rebuild the Doomsday from the ground up.
Accepting those dozens of miners, taking over the entire Yinliu Mine, mastering the entire Origin Silver industry, and even controlling the entire City of Thorns is just the first step in his plan for himself.
