Chapter 1269 1256. Summer Night in Mukuso

  The 50,000 lord army is going to Bena City. If they want to take the magic airship, Suldak needs at least 100 magic airships.

   Not to mention Ruyt City, even the entire Bena Province may not have so many magic airships at present.

  So these troops can only enter the city of Bena by land. If there is no order from the military department, this army cannot even pass through other city territories.

   Moreover, this lord's army was followed by a huge military merchant group that was almost equal to the number of troops.

The biggest disadvantage of this alliance form of the lord's army is the loose military discipline. Fortunately, the soldiers will not do some extraordinary things, but the lord's army seriously lacks restraint on the middle and high-level officers. Occasionally, some officers will stuff their families into the army. The business group travels with the army, so some tents in the business group are like a second home for these officers.

This kind of bad habit can be seen everywhere in the lord's army, but it can't be effectively managed, but Suldak doesn't have time to take care of it now. When they arrive at the Bailin plane, I believe Andrew, Samira and others will give them a good treatment lesson.

  In the early morning, the camp was being pulled out, and the vanguard of the army set off in a mighty formation.

   It was not until the afternoon of that day that the last archer battalion on the side of the Ruyt City barracks left the camp.

  Suldak did not set off with the army. He would leave Ruyt City in a magic airship half a month later and rush to Bena City ahead of schedule to join the lord's army.

  During this period of time, he not only had to explain the government affairs of Ruyt City in detail, but also handled the government affairs of Mukuso City well.

   Mukuso City has resumed normal taxation.

  Because there are a large number of adventure groups and business groups gathered in the city, this month's fiscal revenue has exploded.

  I believe that there will be a relatively smooth transition period, and tax revenue will gradually decline to a stable state.

However, although Mucuso City has restored taxation, the city hall still gave these business groups some additional compensatory policies, such as the same batch of goods will not be taxed every time they are traded, only one transaction tax will be collected, and the transaction tax is levied The amount is extremely low, and only materials that pass through the portal will have a 5% customs duty and so on.

  The officials of Mukuso City resolutely implemented Suldak's ideas, revitalized commerce to drive the local economy, and they also tasted great sweetness from this.

  In fact, the only city hall that has no revenue during the one-year tax exemption period, the residents of Mucuso City have benefited greatly from this matter.

  The first advantage is that during the period of urban economic recovery, the employment rate of urban residents has maintained a very high rate.

   This is obviously a loss of revenue for the city hall, but it makes the whole city better.

  Although the businessmen who brought capital into the market were the ones who made the most profits, new vitality sprouted in the whole city, and those living in the ruins of the city found their way of life again.

Surdak has now become a new generation of heroes in Mukuso City. Every time he rides a horse and walks in the streets and alleys of the city, once he is recognized, he will be surrounded by people like a star. Applaud Surdak. So now every time Suldak goes out, he will take the magic caravan of the city hall.

  In just one year, the city of Mukuso has undergone earth-shaking changes.

  Suldak rarely had time to wander around the city of Mukuso, accompanied by only a squad of guard battalion knights.

  The magic caravan stopped in front of the clock tower in the square under the night. The clock tower was in ruins during the war, and even the giant clock on the top of the building was severely damaged.

Now that Suldak came back here, he found that the entire clock tower has been completely renovated, and the reliefs on the wall surface of the clock tower have been meticulously restored. Inlaid with moonstone, even at night, people can clearly see the direction of the pointer.

The bell watchman guarding the clock tower opened the gate of the clock tower, and Suldak led Sia to the top of the clock tower, and the accompanying knights of the guard battalion waited below, yawning, and they followed Suldak around the city. For a long time, if it is normal, these guard battalion knights can already go home and rest.

  Surdak stood on the top of the bell tower, facing the cool night wind, admiring the night view of Mukuso City.

  Walking out of the clock tower, seeing the tired looks of the guard battalion knights, Surdak simply waved his hand and said, "Okay, you all leave, Siya and I will just walk around here."

  The guard battalion knights were still hesitant at first, but seeing Suldak's insistence, they dispersed one after another.

  The magic caravan was still waiting on the side of the square, and Suldak sent the coachman away again.

   Then he and Xi Ya walked on the street like this.

  “The city is recovering very well. Although I haven’t seen the bustling city of Mucuso before, I think the current Mucuso will be more vibrant than ever.”

  Suldak sighed and said that the deepest memory in his heart is the dilapidated city that was riddled with holes drilled by the cavemen.

  Sia didn't speak, just silently accompanied Suldak.

  The original city wall of Mukuso City has become the city wall of the inner city, while the large slums outside the city are surrounded by a brand new city wall. The entire city of Mukuso City has almost tripled in size.

  The main street of the city is brightly lit, forming a criss-crossing bright line at night...

  Suldak didn't wear the high-level magic pattern structure, but changed into a set of ordinary guard battalion training leather armor, and the distinctive broadsword and goethe shield were also put into the magic pocket. Xi Ya is also wearing a black robe, which looks a bit like a magic apprentice from the attire, but does not have the badge of a magic apprentice.

   The two left from the clock tower, crossed the city square and entered the noisy street.

  Mucouso at night is also extremely lively. The opera house in front seems to have just finished, and the crowd poured out of the opera house and went straight to the magic caravan parked on the street. In an instant, Suldak and Xiya were surrounded by a sea of ​​people.

  They wanted to pass through here, so they could only slow down and move forward a little bit with the crowd.

   Some young people walked out of the opera house, their faces still unable to hide the excitement. Obviously they were infected by the beautiful melody, and they couldn't help discussing after they walked out of the opera house.

  A familiar figure stood among those young people. She was wearing a long white dress, long silk gloves on her arms, and her golden hair was tied behind her head, highlighting her snow-white neck and being extraordinarily tall.

   Walking down the steps of the opera house, Zeta had already seen Suldak who was hit by the crowd and stranded in place.

  He always seems to be accompanied by that beautiful young lady with long blue hair, her eyes are as clear as lake water, even Zeta is moved by her heart.

   But at this time, Zeta couldn't help but look at Suldak.

   Especially when she knew that the unpretentious knight in front of her was the great hero of Mukusuo City and the great lord of the Ganbu plane, the halo on Suldak's body suddenly became brighter and more dazzling.

  Suldak felt that someone was watching him, and turned around to find that Miss Zeta was standing among a group of young people, just across the street.

  Although there are many pedestrians and traffic, but these can hardly conceal the tall and outstanding Zeta.

   Seeing herself looking over, Miss Zeta smiled and nodded at Suldak with some embarrassment, and secretly waved her little hand.

   It seems that I saw Zeta greeting people, and the friends around me seemed to be asking Zeta in a low voice, and Zeta was also explaining in a low voice.

Suldak didn't want to stay on this street any longer, so he led Siya out of the lively opera house. Although Siya wanted to listen to an opera a little bit, they came at the wrong time, and the next opera was at midnight There is still a long time before the opening.

   "What? I saw that young girl from the Latie family, and didn't you go over to say hello?" Xi Ya teased, "I think she has a good impression of you!"

  Seeing that Suldak wanted to defend himself, Sia added again: "Don't underestimate the intuition of a Naga weaver!"

  Suldak said helplessly: "I can't let anyone have a good impression of me. I have to express it. How many people are there in the whole city of Mukuso? Can I express it?"

  Sia snorted softly: "I thought you would especially like fresh and young souls..."

Suldak explained speechlessly: "I don't have such a special hobby. Speaking of this, I think it is necessary to go to the abandoned mining area Sailia Village to visit Ms. Naomi, before leaving Mukuso. Earl Ke hopes to meet this necromancer."

  The two of them bypassed the opera house while talking. This is an auction house, which is completely opposite to the opera house. It is very lively during the day and very deserted at night.

  The building of the auction house is extraordinarily grand, even leaving a small square at the entrance.

On the small square stood six three-meter-high stone statues. The six stone statues formed a circle with different postures. In the middle was a stone statue of three hellhounds. Only then did Suldak see that these were six people. A scene where heavy armored infantry soldiers besiege a three-headed hellhound.

   Obviously, the artist was a bit exaggerated when he made the statue. Facing a hellhound with three heads, not to mention six heavy armored infantry soldiers, even sixty heavy armored infantry soldiers may not be able to fight.

  When Suldak was about to pass through here, he heard a young voice saying impassionedly:

   "If I had another chance to do it again, I would be like them, holding the **** knight's long sword, and beheading the head of a hellhound."

   It should be a young passionate youth...

  Suldak continued to walk forward, and happened to see Miss Zeta and her group of young friends again. Unexpectedly, they did not leave in the magic caravan, but ran to the auction house to continue wandering.

  Suldak felt that he should walk over and say hello to Miss Zeta.

  When he came out and greeted Zeta politely, there were several hostile gazes from among the group of young people...

  Suldak understood the young man's psychological feelings very well at this time, and he didn't care too much, so he left in a hurry with Siya

  Zeta looked at the direction where Suldak was leaving, and was dazed for a while.

  The young man on the side said something jealous, but Zeta smiled and said nothing...

Everyone chatted about the opera first, and then they talked about the recent expedition of the Mukuso Heavy Armored Infantry Corps. Several young people are glad that they have not yet served in the military. Conquering another plane is the most unlucky thing.

  Zeta suddenly found that he was not interested, and he didn't even want to say another word.

   Looking at the empty street, he could only sigh softly.
