The Legend of Fatality

Chapter 284: New administrative region

The place where Dean's office is located is a square building made of black and gray hemp stones, up to ten floors. The large bricks lining the city walls form a simple mosaic pattern, but it seems that the outer walls are also smeared with mud and dust that they do not know what to use. After this period of sun and rain, they have long been blurred.

The tall arch windows dotted on each floor are decorated with stained glass, mainly black and red patterns. Every night, gloomy lights illuminate behind all windows, like dim red eyes in the dark, staring in all directions. Those lights never go out, and the implicit meaning is self-evident.

Four open-air round towers rise from the four corners of the building into the sky, like hanging from the eighth to the tenth floor. The black iron ‘bird cage’ hangs on the outside of the tower. Those prisoners who have been selected for special hospitality will be locked in their cages, their feet sagged outside and kept in custody for more than ten hours or even days. But compared to the "pendant cage", the "bird cage" is simply an agent in heaven. New 81 Chinese network update the fastest mobile terminal: https: /

Bai En led the horse to a stone bridge and squeezed into the bustling crowd of the new administrative district. Through the gap between the shoulders and backs of the adults, you can see this wonderful scene.

This building's northeast tower hangs six cages with long iron chains and gently swings in the wind like a pendant hanging on a silk thread. Two of them are moving, one is rising slowly and the other is falling rapidly.

Prisoners convicted in pendant cages are not allowed to get a moment of tranquility, so other prisoners punished for hard work will pull the huge pulley on the tower and rotate the winch in shifts until the judges think the prisoners in the cage are crazy enough or repentant .

The cages that were swaying, squeaking, and airy on all sides were moving up and down every moment. In the evening, people are far away and often hear the mourning and screaming of these prisoners.

This place was originally intended as a place for students of the Spellcaster Academy to conduct community activities, and also provides some tutors or formal wizards to conduct research or experiments. After all, the number of wizard towers on Fatalin Island is limited, and the wizard tower itself is not only a status, but also an important defense facility.

However, since they are occupied by these so-called officials, the college's activity center can only be rebuilt. Of course, it may also be related to the wailing of criminals day and night that easily disturbs the silence of the mages. Fortunately, there are a lot of things missing on Fatalin Island, but the open space is never on the list. The palace-like building in the distance is the future activity, experiment and research center of the Spellcaster Academy.

Amen Cannon made the twenty-four mage towers that Baeen and the Golden Shield dwarves talked about to encircle a large area of ​​land with an irregular ring, and even the black tower was encircled. The urban area that Brian had left before was just a part of the urban area divided around the mage tower of the caster academy.

The designer of Fatalin City divided Fatalin City into 24 urban districts according to 24 Master Towers. The place where Bai En drinks morning tea belongs to one of the four business districts, and his current location belongs to the administrative district, the caster The college area belongs to the college district.

This new administrative area is a city with relatively simple functions. The ten-story building is called the Municipal Building, and the tall tower where Dean ’s department is located is also called the Judgment Tower, and the opposite is the Municipal Tower. The building is divided into four main departments because of the four towers. However, the other two towers have not yet arranged for the department to settle in.

From here to the north is the canal wharf, stables and freight warehouses prepared for transportation between Fatalin City and Tatuga Port. Between the two are offices and housing for tax officials, scribes and other officials of the Fatalin Association, as well as run-down cafes where hired lawyers and legal advisers often stay-these people are there to attract customers , Earn money from the relatives and friends of the prisoners detained in the trial tower. Several pawnshops and other shops are stubbornly sticking to the northern end of the city, but overall, they have been excluded from the harsh administrative area of ​​the Fatalin Association.

There is a newly constructed wide canal between the new administrative area and the port of Tatuga. Another major landmark here is the Black Bridge across the canal. This tall black arch bridge made of stone is decorated with yellow lamps. At both ends and in the middle of the bridge are suspension bridges that can be pulled up. Just pull a rope to put it down.

The suspension bridge in the middle of the bridge is for larger ships, and the suspension bridges on both sides are for defensive considerations, although Bai En feels a bit redundant. The location of the bridge is within the magical coverage of the Black Tower. If someone can attack this position, then a bridge will not be an obstacle to them.

Part of the hanging will be performed on a wooden platform protruding from the south side of the arch bridge. It is said that if criminals die above the running water, their uneasy souls will be taken into the sea. Others say that they will turn into sharks, which explains why Tatuga Port is plagued by jumping sharks. This statement is hard to be dismissed as a fallacy. In the eyes of most Fatarians, it is reasonable to replace teeth with teeth.

Bai En stared at Black Bridge for a long time, thinking about whether the shark was due to the revenge of the soul, or the fish attracted by the more waste brought by the growing population of Tatuga Port. As for the suspension bridge on the bridge, Bai En looked around the river channel, which is now called the Fatalin Canal, and may be more likely to guard himself.

While thinking about it, Bai En subconsciously stopped at the same place, perhaps because of the black robe on his body, the surrounding new officials and other "geniuses" all tacitly kept away from him, resulting in only him around his crowded bridge. A large circle was empty. Only a pair of Dean ’s newly trained judges and disciples saluted him as he passed by.

Perhaps because his area was too striking, a mage wearing the same black robe facing the old man burrowed into the open space from the crowd. He was followed by several entourages, who were squeezed in with him, but saw standing in the middle Who is the one who retreated back to the crowd.

Bai En saw the movements of those people and raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction.

"Master, it's great to see you here." The person is Morris, an apprentice of Bai En. He stepped forward and took out a piece of parchment from his arms. "Could you please sign a consent form for me, I will call all the death row prisoners in the next week or two."

"Is this Dean's job?" Bai En glanced at the parchment handed over by Morris. It said that he was allowed to call the death row prisoner, but he forgot to sign the payment, but Bai En still could see that it was Dean's note.

"Master Dean was meeting with Master Falheim. I got this authorization from him and went to the prison to find that Master Dean forgot to sign." Morris explained. "But you sign the same. I don't have to run back and forth again. By the way, Lord Falheim said if you can meet you before the afternoon, please go to Lord Dean's office. The candidate for the thing you said. "

Morning? Bahn recalled that it seemed that Falheim suggested that he find some reliable people to replace his work. Bai En wondered how he could find a suitable candidate so quickly. Bai En glanced at the authorization written on the parchment from beginning to end, and found no problem. He took the pen from Morris and signed his name at the end.

"What do you want the death row prisoner to do?" Bai En signed, but did not immediately hand over the parchment to his apprentice.

"It's not me, it's Lord Antalatum." Morris explained again. "That flower, the one with the eyeballs, Lord Antaratm seems to be planning to conduct some experiments with death row prisoners." The newest 81 Chinese website updates the fastest computer terminal: https: //

"Okay," Bai En's first reaction was a little uncomfortable, but then, thinking about it, he was no better than others. Reach out and hand the parchment back to Morris.

Morris, who had taken the parchment, seemed to be a bit tweaked, and it was the first time that Bai En saw him.

"Fuck fast!" Bai En said dissatisfiedly.

"Master, I still need some money." Morris said a little embarrassedly.

"Ah. Okay, I expected. Take as much as you want from the vault and put the number on the account book. But if you take the money out and spend it ..." Bai Enshun threatened.

"I know. Lead ingots, screams, death." Morris nodded honestly.

"Almost. You are a little bigger, but I guess Antaratum can also use your body to do one or two studies."

"Relax, Master, I can pay you back in a few months at most, and I will pay interest." Morris said vowedly.

This aroused Bai En's curiosity.

"Oh? I thought you were going to find a woman or buy a wife." Bai En said with a smirk. "What are you going to do? Invest? Why not bring me?"

"It's an investment, do you know that the dwarves are going to build a cannon factory?" Morris ignored White's first sentence and answered seriously. "General Netska's profit in the last war was originally intended to build two large ships, but she was not satisfied with the cannons on the ship. So she negotiated with the Fatalin Association, led by the association, and organized the dwarves and part of them from the eastern continent. The recruited artillery master studies new cannons. "

"What does that have to do with investment?" Bai En didn't understand the connection between manufacturing artillery and investment.

"General Netska will buy it." Morris was surprised that his master hadn't thought about this. "If she meets her requirements, she will buy all the cannons. And not only her, but also the new battleships of Captain Valares and Captain Jago."

"The Association gave the two ships promised to Netska to Valares and Jago?" Bai En felt that the association was too stinky in this move, in order to restrict Netska from the two she wanted. It is really stupid to hand over the ship to others. The dark elf had no loyalty to the Fatalin Association.

"No, Lord Amencanon decided to sell the warships that had been eliminated before, and then built five new warships, each of which is said to be twice as tall as the previous one, with at least sixty new cannons. One of them was handed over to Varare Captain Sri Lanka, one is given to Captain Jago, and the remaining three captains are still considering. "

"A total of seven warships? That is, at least four hundred new artillery." Bai En quickly calculated the price of the artillery, and found that these cannons would cost the Fatalin Association at least three years of income. No wonder Morris said it could be regarded as an investment. It ’s just that there is still a small problem ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ The association does n’t have that much money, right? Asked Bai En.

"Yes, it is said that the ship is prepaid, others need to be resolved by the captains themselves." Morris explained. "Basically, the Fatalin Association has hinted that they are going to do no business at sea."

Damn, Bai En understood that this was to let this group of people plunder at sea. Needless to say, the two dark elves were basically equal to their old business. The captain Jaeger is probably familiar with this routine. He may have been a smuggler and he is more familiar with fat sheep. Fatalin Island is inherently geographically superior, and sending them to them also allows them to be more careful when choosing a target, after all, it is their own boat. If it goes smoothly, the part of the income they turned over will allow the association to continue to build a fleet that really belongs to the Fatalin Association.

"I want to invest too." Bai En understands that this kind of investment is not done now, and it is estimated that there will be no chance later.

"Ah, how much do you want to invest?" Morris did not expect that his master suddenly became interested in investment.

"All!"

"Well, what do you borrow from me?" Morris asked cautiously.

"No more."

"But ..." Morris wanted to say something wronged.

"Okay, okay, you earn 10% of the money you made. Okay?" Bai En said angrily.

"Okay, it's a lot." Morris thought for a while and nodded in agreement. "What if the investment fails?"

"Lead ingot, scream, death." Bai En said lightly. "Then the body will be used for experiments."
