Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 147: The Queen's Troubles
After carefully thinking through the meaning of Eve's letter , Marvin quickly asked Anna to write a letter in reply.
The messenger albatross is still stranded in the White River Valley. It is obvious that Eve ordered him to bring back Marvin's reply.
In the letter, Marvin clearly expressed his support for Eve's efforts to establish power in the North, and also stated that he would go to Deepwater Port as soon as possible.
As for the specific alliance, Marvin did not talk much about it. After all, the two sides have only reached a preliminary agreement.
However, in the letter, Marvin still gave Eve a small reminder, asking her to be careful about the rising power of the gods in the North.
Faith is a very scary thing; with the help of gods and in the context of troubled times, it is easy for people to betray their ideals and their own will.
In comparison, the south is much better - perhaps because most areas in the south are still wreaking havoc by demonized wizards.
After all, the huge number of wizards in the Southern Wizarding Alliance is not fake.
…
After replying, Marvin put the trip to the north on the agenda.
But at the same time, he still had a lot of things to deal with, and the White River Valley was now a very large territory.
If Marvin wanted, he could always establish a small kingdom and proclaim himself king, and probably no one would object.
Anna selected some people with management talents from among the many refugees to serve as civil servants to manage the increasingly busy affairs of the territory.
Even so, there are still many things that need Marvin's personal review.
It took him a whole afternoon to just go through it all.
He also had a preliminary understanding of the current situation in the Baihe Valley.
The population of the territory is approaching ten thousand, and the number is increasing every day. Centralized food supply is obviously no longer the most convenient way.
Ma Wen distributed the food from the eleven golden bulls to managers in various places according to their power, and had them run according to the rules and regulations he set.
Naturally, Madeline was in charge of the River Beach City. The female city lord was smart and capable enough to handle everything. The adventurer camp was temporarily handed over to the leader of the Lord's Guard, Andre. Andre was the original captain of the White River Valley and one of the first people to follow Marvin. During this period, his strength improved rapidly. It was said that it was related to Constantine's previous guidance. Now he has reached the fourth level of strength.
As Marvin's confidant, Andre is capable of suppressing those lawless adventurers.
There is no need to say much about the Sand tribe. In addition to Constantine, the Sand tribe also has a patriarch who is a very kind person.
When Constantine was away, he basically took over the affairs of the Sand Tribe. Marvin had been in contact with him for a while and found him to be a very loyal and honest man. The Sand Tribe just wanted to live a good life in their own territory and had no ambitions, so Marvin was also relieved to leave the food to him.
The White River Valley mainland, including the northern mines and the ogre hills in the east, is naturally still under the full control of Anna.
The only thing that gave Marvin a headache was Sword Harbor.
The city was initially built, but the population was still very sparse, with only a few scattered sailors and some fishermen.
The person currently in charge of this place is Captain Roberts of Sword Harbor One.
Since Jiangang No. 1 did not go out to sea, it was okay for him to be the captain temporarily, but he would definitely not be reliable in the long run.
Putting aside the fact that Roberts himself lacked management skills, Marvin was unsure about managing a port city, and a city of great strategic significance to the White River Valley, a guy who was half pirate and half sailor.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally left the position of Jiangang City Lord vacant temporarily.
After all, there aren't many people there, so it's better to temporarily treat the food distribution and task allocation in the same system as the Ogre Hill.
Once the responsibilities and powers are divided, Anna, Laura and others will naturally make the arrangements, so Marvin doesn't have to worry too much about it.
Next, he had to tackle the biggest problem facing the White River Valley.
Food, and more food.
…
In the Putsen plane, under the snowy mountain.
The ruins of the Great Temple of Shadows had long been opened up, and under the order of Queen Nono, the people of the royal capital had carved out an artificial valley here.
At the end of the valley, there is a plane that drops ninety degrees!
That's the Ash Plains!
Today, the Pusen plane has been firmly embedded in the Ash Plains because of the plane traction technique.
Medili had already established a teleportation array here, but because the cross-dimensional teleportation array consumed too much energy, the two sides only teleported twice.
The first two times, most of the treasures sent were jewelry, gold and other treasures. These treasures supported the construction of the White River Valley before the catastrophe.
Princess Nono did not break her promise. At least half of the property looted from the Shadow Temple was stored by her separately.
Deep in her heart, she still had awe for Marvin.
Even the invincible gods were easily defeated by him. This kind of person is someone that the whole Nottingham cannot afford to offend.
Not to mention that the last time Marvin left, he took his dearest brother Aragorn with him.
"When will they come back?"
On the snowy mountain trail, the newly crowned queen, wearing a simple dress, silently glanced in the direction of the valley under the protection of several guards.
She looked a little sad and troubled.
According to Grand Mage Orlan, the Pusen plane and the main plane called Fenan are now completely synchronized.
At least that's how time flows.
However, more than four months have passed now, and except for the two plane teleportations designated by Marvin, they have not received any news from that world, which makes Nuonuo a little worried.
What is that world like?
She was very curious, but she knew that no matter what the outside world was like, she would probably never have the chance to experience it in this life.
I belong to Pusen and Nottingham.
The people here need her. She is the Queen of Nottingham, they trust her, and she must restore the kingdom to its vitality.
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but sigh softly.
As the days passed, the kingdom that had freed itself from the Shadow Temple gradually regained its vitality, and Nono was naturally very happy.
But then, something happened that gave her a headache.
Princes and ministers - even his favorite scholar from Oran University - began to hint that perhaps it was time for him to find a prince.
They even made themselves a list of the young talents from across the kingdom.
But after Nuonuo took a look, she lost all interest.
She is a girl with a very high aspiration, otherwise she would not have been able to sit on the throne of queen.
There was no one on the list that suited her taste.
She directly rejected everyone's proposal, which was a rare time when she acted on her own.
But she also knew that even if she vetoed it this time, it would come again next time.
I will eventually grow old, and if Nottingham wants to prosper forever, I need my children to inherit it.
When she thought about this kind of thing, and she didn't even have anyone to discuss it with, Nono began to frown.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late."
The maid beside her reminded her.
Nuonuo nodded and prepared to end today's walk. There was a palace dinner in the evening, which she had to attend.
Who knew that at this moment, a bright purple light suddenly burst out from the other end of the valley!
