Chapter 814: Instant face slap
Chapter 814: Instant face slap
After idling for two days in Westwind City, Robb felt it was about time to go to the New Continent to look for advanced materials.
Just as he was about to get up from the stone stool and move around, he saw Lillian standing next to him, holding a basket of snacks, with a look as if she wanted to go with him.
Robb smiled and said, "What's this? Are you also going to check it out over there?"
Lillian replied, "I heard that a little church has been built there, and that the mining site has stabilized. I also want to be with Godfather over there."
"Sure, it's just a transmission distance away, not far. We can come and go anytime. Don't treat it as a long journey, so it doesn't matter," Robb didn't object either.
At that moment, to their surprise, Little Yi showed up with the Big Loli and the two little Light Sisters. They also came along and said, "We're going to the New Continent too."
"Huh?" Robb was puzzled. "What are you guys planning to do? Going there together?"
Little Yi explained, "I heard that the Maya people in the New Continent have a very backward culture and don't know anything. I think we should go there and teach them to read and write."
Robb asked, "And spread the belief in the New God of Light along the way?"
Little Yi nodded.
Well, missionaries are willing to go to great lengths to gain more followers for their faith. Even if it means traveling through the transmission gate or taking boats and crossing mountains and seas, Robb could understand that. So, he decided to take them all together.
"And me too!" Xuelu suddenly ran out, accompanied by Gorda and Jike. "We're tired of resting and plan to have an adventure in the New Continent. Maybe itll be even more interesting over there."
Finally, even Marian ran out and said, "I want to go to the New Continent to find business opportunities. The Corton Family's maritime trade team is being formed, so it's necessary to get an early understanding of the New Continent."
"Alright, everyone can go," Robb said helplessly, "Since the construction on the New Continent is going well, it won't be bad showing you."
With a cheerful mood reminiscent of a school field trip, they happily walked through the transmission gate.
The girls who were visiting the New Continent for the first time initially thought that it would be poorly constructed, but to their surprise, it far exceeded their expectations. The newly built small chapel was even better than the one back in Westwind City, with a complete cement structure and colorful stained glass, looking fantastic.
It turned out that their home in Westwind City was the run-down little chapel where Robb first arrived in Westwind Town. Although it had undergone some renovations in the past few years, the house's framework was old, and no matter how it was refurbished, it couldn't compare in beauty.
Meanwhile, this small chapel in the New Continent was newly built, with a complete cement structure. The interior was spacious and bright, with water stored on the roof to provide running water. Bathrooms and toilets were also available. The construction workers in Westwind City now had considerable architectural design capabilities, so the houses they built were naturally better than before.
Furthermore, this place couldn't be considered a mere mining site anymore. Many miners' houses stood alongside the houses of the Maya people who had moved here to mine and make money, forming a small town.
Moreover, this small town had undergone development planning. Although it was much smaller in scale compared to Westwind City, it had the advantage of being built from scratch, making planning much more convenient. All the houses were neatly constructed, and the roads were wide and smooth, even more beautiful than the old city area of Westwind City.
Marian couldn't help but sigh, "Why do I have a feeling that this place will be even more beautiful than Westwind City in the future?"
Robb chuckled, "That's really hard to say! The old city has its regrets, as there are some buildings that cannot be demolished or touched. But in a completely new city, there are no such concerns, and it can be planned to perfection."
As the Big Loli looked around the surroundings, she saw the people in the mining town in a harmonious and peaceful state. Everyone was quietly doing their own workminers were mining, ore transporters were transporting, and smelters were refining. The mining town was surrounded by a quiet forest.
The whole world seemed peaceful and serene!
The Big Loli couldn't help but pout and say, "Seriously, it's so peaceful and serene here. Aren't there any monsters attacking? I thought the New Continent was a wild and dangerous place, with monsters running rampant everywhere."
Robb replied with a hint of annoyance, "Do you really want monsters to come and bite you?"
The Big Loli felt a little dejected and said, "Yeah, that's right! I'm supposed to be the glorious Guardian of Light, but I haven't had a chance to take action at all. The evil villains arent coming to persecute the Holy Light. How can I protect it? If I don't protect it, what's the point of being called the Guardian of Light?"
"Hey!" Robb interjected, "Don't go looking for trouble when there's nothing wrong. What's wrong with peace? I love peace the most. You won't find any fights here..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a sentinel on the southern lookout tower of the mining town shouted, "Enemy attack! We have Norma people coming from the south."
Robb exclaimed, "Oh no, instant face slap? Who's so audacious?"
The Big Loli became excited and swiftly dashed to the edge of the lookout tower, climbing up in a flash. She snatched the "telescope" from the sentinel's hand, took a few glances toward the south, and then exclaimed with joy, "Just as I thought, the Norma people have arrived, and there are many Maya people with them. It seems like there's going to be a battle. Heh."
The Big Loli excitedly jumped up and down, then yelled at Robb, "Back in Westwind City, you took care of all the fighting. Now that we're in the New Continent, at least let me get involved too."
Robb replied with a hint of annoyance, "Isn't it good that I took care of the fighting? You really don't appreciate the good fortune you're in! Do you have to live in the Warring States period to feel satisfied? Let me tell you, if someone like you, a princess, were born in the Warring States period, you would be married off to a prince from another kingdom before even reaching adulthood. Let's see how 'awesome' you would be then."
The Big Loli asked curiously, "What's the Warring States period?"
"Well, forget I said anything!"
While Robb was complaining, on the other side, the Westwind warriors were already assembling under the command of Elsie, preparing to face the enemy. In addition, a large group of Gada and Polar Tribe Eagle Warriors joined in. These Eagle Warriors were not skilled in formation battles, so they did not join the ranks of the Westwind warriors. Instead, they scattered around. Some climbed up trees, some hid in bushes, and some took cover behind trees or rocks. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed.
The Big Loli swiftly unsheathed her Holy Sword and jumped to the front of the formation, assuming the appearance of a leading commander.
That's usually Elsie's position!
However, Elsie didn't jump out to protest. Instead, he turned and looked at Robb. Robb shrugged his shoulders, giving a gesture of "I can't be bothered with her." Elsie understood, smiled, and then moved back into the middle of the formation, disguising himself as a regular soldier.
If Godfather's woman wants to play the game, then let her play! Elsie wasn't going to steal the spotlight at a time like this.
