Chapter 23: One Month’s Time

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: One Month’s Time

Taking the two bottles of Mid-Level Life Potion made Thor somewhat anxious. In the following days, he paid more attention to the old man’s condition. Fortunately, he breathed a sigh of relief as the old man’s situation did not worsen; instead, it clearly began to improve, and the fluctuations of Life Source Power around him became more frequent.

It was very clear that there was a high chance he wouldn’t die.

At this moment, Thor finally relaxed.

Just as he had said before.

It was no joke; he had invested quite a lot in the old man in front of him.

If he really died, it would be a huge loss for him.

This was not the outcome he hoped to see.

"Reine, make sure someone takes good care of him!"

After thoroughly confirming the old man would be alright, Thor rose and instructed Reine.

"Yes!"

Reine quickly nodded.

Having checked on the old man, Thor didn’t continue to pay more attention.

After all, compared to the potential surprise brought by the old man, his most important concern right now was the construction of his entire territory.

In the days that followed, he devoted himself entirely to building the territory.

Under his planning.

The speed of territory construction accelerated significantly.

Especially, the liberation of several slaves made the remaining slaves seem as if they were injected with adrenaline.

All their enthusiasm was fully mobilized.

In such circumstances, a month passed quickly.

During this month.

Eagle Ridge undoubtedly underwent significant changes.

Pieces of farmland were reclaimed.

Buildings rose from the ground one after another.

Even the most important Eagle Castle now had a complete form.

Maybe it wouldn’t take long for Eagle Castle to be fully completed.

Of course, the more important thing was the wheat seedlings in the farmland.

Even though the planting time was a bit late, Thor’s knowledge from his previous life ensured the wheat seedlings in the farmland not only had no issues but grew even beyond the original expectations.

In a month’s time, the wheat seedlings even reached an inch in height.

The smiles on everyone’s faces in the farmland grew more intense.

Filled with hope for the future.

Work proceeded without needing supervision.

Early in the morning, many peasant slaves voluntarily went to the fields to labor.

"Lord, truly a divine being; pouring this manure indeed makes the wheat seedlings grow faster!"

"Who’s to say otherwise? Back in my hometown, wheat seedlings would take at least two months to grow this big; now it’s only been a month, yet they’re already this large, and extremely healthy."

"Yes, yes!"

"The lord is truly remarkable!"

"Of course, the lord is favored by the Goddess of Life."

"By the way, did you hear?"

"What’s happening?"

"I tell you, I heard from a knight that the lord will once again decide to free a batch of the best performers from slavery in three months."

"Really!!"

"Of course it’s true; I’ve heard it too!"

"This!"

"The lord is really too kind; may the Goddess of Life be with the lord!"

"May the Goddess of Life be with the lord."

....

On the land, in the midst of conversation, there was no longer the initial numbness and lifelessness; everyone was full of hope for the future life.

Especially after Thor also told all the slaves, in three months, he would liberate another batch of slaves.

This undoubtedly excited everyone further.

Growing anticipation for the life ahead.

At present, significant changes had occurred throughout the entirety of Eagle Territory compared to other Pioneer Knight territories.

Indeed, these changes.

Are still just beginning.

The changes to follow can only be expected to become greater.

With his previous life’s memory, Thor’s planning and construction for the territory are unmatched by any other nobility of this era.

Even the most elite nobility and the kingdom’s top elite cannot compare with the knowledge in his transmigrator mind.

What’s more important.

With daily intelligence awakening, he was able to acquire information on numerous resource points.

The information from these resource points was enough to support his actions.

The changes brought by these would undoubtedly become greater.

The morning gradually passed.

The early hours once again arrived on schedule.

"Ding, the intelligence system has been updated!"

"Do you want to open it?"

The mechanical voice sounded as it did every day.

"Open it!"

The soft voice sounded, and Thor spoke softly as well.

"Buzz!"

[Daily Intelligence Updated]

[1: In your territory, fifty miles away, there is a group of timid goblins, and they hold a large iron mine]

[2: Three days later, upstream of the Maine River Valley, a group of unicorns will pass; the unicorn leader has reached Tier Two Peak]

[3: Three miles to the left of Eagle Ridge, there is a groundhog habitat]

[4, a hundred miles to the right, yesterday a Sky Spirit Dragon has left its lair, now occupied by Earth Dragons among which its collected treasures are present.]

[5: A thousand miles from Loren City, in the Luoye Valley, there is a small iron mine guarded by goblins]

[6: Three days later......]

[7: Seven days later......]

.....

Lines of text appear.

Maine River Valley, as the chosen territory range, undoubtedly possessed rich resources, and among the ten options, most were resource points.

There were even several heart-stirring presences.

For instance, the large iron mine controlled by the timid goblins.

Iron mines are highly valuable resources in this era, especially large iron mines, as they generally contain Secret Silver Iron, a magical material sufficient to forge silver weapons.

Often, even a Count would be tempted by a large iron mine.

Thor was no exception.

If his territory could take that large iron mine, it would then have a stable economic pillar long term.

Its value is unimaginable.

Besides the goblin iron mine, there was also the previously identified nest of the Sky Spirit Dragon and the unicorns.

Each of these is incredibly valuable.

However, meals need to be eaten bite by bite; roads need to be walked step by step.

Most of these resource points cannot be acquired by him at this moment.

Like the Sky Spirit Dragon’s territory.

There resides a group of Earth Dragons, each adult Earth Dragon reaches Tier Three level, and the Earth Dragon leader might even reach Tier Four.

Even if his father came, he would still need to think twice.

After all, that is Tier Three, even Tier Four existence.

And it’s of the Dragon Race.

Even with just a trace of Dragon Race blood, Earth Dragon’s strength is extraordinarily powerful, incomparable to common demon beasts.

Usually only Sky Knights have the confidence to handle them.

And not just any Sky Knight, it has to be a high-level Sky Knight to have a solution.
