Chapter 52:Fire of the Heart (Part 1)

The day after Anna woke up, the Nightingale resigned to Roland.ㄨ

“Although it is not clear why, she is probably the first witch to spend the day of awakening safely,” said the Nightingale excitedly before her departure.As Roland for a long time began, she began to use the word awakening to describe the transformation of witches: "I will bring the sisters of the help, and then I hope you will accept them, just as you accept Anna."

Roland can't ask for this, an Anna crossed the hot forging process, so that the town saw the dawn of the industrial age, what does a bunch of witches mean?Of course, considering the security situation, he still made a retention, hoping that the other side would go to the desperate mountains after the end of the demon month.

But the nightinge is obviously impatient, "this winter, there are still many people to face this difficult road, if you can tell them the news earlier, maybe a few people will leave us."Rest assured, the common beast cannot find my whereabouts.”

“When is your day of awakening?”Roland finally asked.

The Nightingings turned over their horses, "in the late winter and early spring," she waved her hand and left the prince with a back. "Don't worry about me, the pain has become lighter and lighter in recent years."

The answer made Roland think.

He had also been thinking about the reason why Anna could spend the awakening day so smoothly, after all, Anna said afterwards that no pain had been felt, which completely subverted the idea of the nightinging that the power of the nightingon came from the devil, and the unclean of evil was the result, and the blood evaporation and the mist of the skin at death became an unshakable iron proof of the fallen power.

Roland, however, had not thought about it from the beginning.

He rummaged through the memories of the four princes and found no proof of the existence of the true God or the devil in this world.Since power is not divine, it should not be regarded as a criterion for discerning good and evil.In fact, even if the gods frequently interfere in the world, believers choose their own camp before they are given divine power, rather than the other way around.

According to the Nightinge, the witch is the aggregation of magic, will it be because the magic is out of place that causes the container itself to be damaged?Roland felt that this possibility was very high, and the witch was hostile and suppressed by the majority of people, and would inevitably choose to hide her ability and pretend to be a normal person and live in war.This leads them to rarely have the opportunity to use magic before they reach adulthood.

Roland certainly did not think that his castle was a feng shui treasure, and he asked Anna, and learned that she had experienced unbearable pain before that.What is different this year is that it has been used almost every day since she came to the castle.

The last answer of the nightinge implicitly confirms his conjecture that the ability to hide, even if it is commonly used, will not attract attention, and that she has been forced to train this ability, is now even more reckless, so the anti-phage of the Awakening Day will have a small impact on her.

Immediately upon his return to the castle, Roland intensified his training on Nanawa, and if there were no injured people on the defensive line, various small animals must be treated.If this speculation can be confirmed by Nanawa, the meaning of the witch can be described as earth-shaking, and the devil's curse will become a gift from heaven.As long as he can ensure that his territory is open to witches, the witches will come together inexorably.

After that, everything was back on track.

Roland began to step up the production of steam No. 2 machines, but also to familiarize Anna with the new capabilities of the process.

There was a shed in the back yard of the castle, but this time to block the wind and snow.As an experimental base, he feels that it is still safer to build on his own territory.

According to the Nightinge, the witch's abilities stabilized in adulthood and could produce new branching abilities.He had not yet seen Anna reflect new abilities, but the use of the flame was completely different from before.

No, it can be called a flame or a problem... Roland thought that if the previous flame was still within the scope of common sense understanding, today's green flame is no longer explained by common sense.

He called it “Fire.”

Because it can leave Anna alone, and at the same time be influenced by Anna's will to change the form.Just like she does now –

A small flame stood on the iron plate two meters away from her, swinging slightly back and forth, as if to greet her.But Roland knew that it was Anna who was manipulating it.In normal times, it can be kept at a temperature similar to the body temperature, only Anna wants to heat up, it will instantly raise the temperature to a higher point, the color will be changed from green to ink green.Similarly, it can also be transformed from a flame into a large cluster of flames, and can also move slowly at a slower speed.

Unfortunately, it can never leave Anna too far, after repeated tests, as long as it leaves more than five meters, the heart will disappear.

Another characteristic of the fire is that Anna can summon the plural flame - only she can now operate two at the same time.

The recent border has been calm.The evil beast still appears outside the city wall, but there is no mixed species, and it is difficult for the evil beast to break through the defense line.As Roland said, the stronger and faster, but still just the beast.The large section of the wall, but they were led to the middle section, so that the militia team with only a hundred people could cope with it.

So in addition to the routine daily tour, Roland has a lot of time to spend on construction.

He had already drawn a plot of land on the south side of the castle, planning to serve as a place of residence after the arrival of the witch.As an investor in the project, he appointed Karl as the head of the project and set up a number of double-layer brick houses here.At the same time, we should consider problems such as beautiful and reasonable layout, convenient access, and fast drainage, and strive to make it a template community.

He also considered whether to disperse the witch to the old and new towns, mixed with the town people, and later thought about it or gave up the intention.Although this helps to speed up the understanding of witches, the consequences are likely to be irreparable once the misunderstanding is completely dissolved.After all, witches now have only a certain influence in the militia.

And Roland could not guarantee that the witches brought by the nightinge were pure and harmless people—most of them had suffered the pain and tribulations of the world, and I am afraid that they could no longer be summed up in a simple way.Witches like Anna and Nanawa are only a few of them.

Therefore, centralized living is also convenient for centralized management, and relevant regulations and rules must be formulated before their arrival.In this regard, Roland has no experience to refer to, after all, he is neither the relevant personnel of the National Security Agency's Superpowers Office, nor the founder of the Avengers, who will know how to manage a group of dissidents!He had to first tentatively set a basic system according to the personnel management methods of general enterprises, and then slowly touched the stone across the river.

Roland, of course, knows that this program is full of loopholes, but as a pioneer, who can do it if he does not?With a tail shrunk in this border town, it may take decades to touch the threshold of industrialization, but he is not a fairy, and how many decades can it take?

If we want to lead the times forward and stand at the forefront of reform, we must have an adventurous spirit.

Just as he recorded these ideas on parchment, Barov pushed the door open and walked in.

He shook the snowflakes on his body, and said to the prince, "Your Highness, here comes the messenger of the long-singing fortress."
