My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start-Chapter 564: The House Of Everything
Chapter 564: The House Of Everything
After Deena voiced her thoughts, all the officials looked at each other in dismay, and the entire place was silent.
After a moment, Fawkes was the first to snap back to his senses. He clapped his hands loudly, "As expected of Lady Deena. That idea is very good. I would like to add two points as well! In addition to selling information and crops, we can also use the characteristics of the planetary fortress to turn this city into a tourist attraction. We can invite the kingdom's residents to come here as guests and experience a one-day tour of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. At the same time, we can also levy protection fees on other cities in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. After all, the planetary fortress is the outermost protective layer of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. We have an obligation to protect the kingdom's territory. At the same time, we also have the right to eat—"
"Fawkes is starting again."
All the officials looked troubled after Fawkes spoke. What surprised them was that Deena did not object after Fawkes said those words. Instead, she nodded and said, "Your idea is not bad. As expected of someone who has been a City Lord, those ideas sound feasible. They can bring huge benefits to the planetary fortress.
Fawkes's idea was actually feasible.
Many of the officials were at a loss. Fawkes was also stunned. Then, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. "Lady Deena, I still have many ideas that I haven't said out loud. Later, we can discuss it alone."
"Sure."
Deena nodded. Her words enraged the other officials. They were all fascinated by the charm that Deena exuded. Fawkes had gotten the chance to be alone with Deena. As a man, how could they not be jealous?
"Lady Deena, I have an idea too. I think that the planetary fortresses can expand the planetary fortress army. Then, they can be outsourced to other nearby cities to earn fees."
"I suggest changing the operating speed of the nine planetary fortresses so that they can operate at different speeds. That way, they can reach different regions of the kingdom at the same time. Not only can we improve patrolling, but we can also collect materials between different regions in a short period of time. The efficiency will be greatly increased."
After Fawkes, the officials raised their ideas one after another. All of them were arguing until their faces turned red.
Deena's lips curled slightly. When she first arrived, it was clear that those officials did not pay much attention to their work, especially after experiencing the elves' invasion. There was even fear in the eyes of those officials. They were afraid of making mistakes in their work and taking responsibility, which caused them not to dare speak their mind.
It was different then. Under her stimulation, those officials let go of the burden in their hearts. How could a team of officials trying their best to improve the city not make the city develop better?
Deena talked with the officials in detail about the future development of the planetary fortress. Soon, it was already noon. She took the officials to a meal.
"Speaking of food, the fortress city had an excellent specialty food called Bracken Bread. It is made from bracken mixed with other wild vegetables. The taste is a little bitter, but it can strengthen your body. If you are interested, Lady Deena, we can try it." An official followed closely behind Deena with an exciting recommendation.
Another official added, "The Bracken Bread is indeed a special feature of the fortress city, but it's not some high-class food. Lady Deena went to great lengths to come here from the capital, and you're just going to let her eat that?"
During the conversation just now, many officials took the opportunity to inquire about Deena. They learned that Deena belonged to a declining earl family in the capital, and she was also a student of the Royal Knight Academy like Watson. Most importantly, Deena was single.
"Then tell me, where do you want Lady Deena to eat? Because of the elves' invasion, many resources stored in the city were looted. Taverns and the likes were also mostly destroyed. Even if Young Master Watson helped to restore the damaged buildings, those taverns would not be able to open in a short period without sufficient ingredients."
An official retorted in dissatisfaction. His words left everyone speechless. They wanted to take Deena to eat something good, but they did not have any good places to go.
"Don't worry, everyone. Follow me. I know a good place to eat."
Deena smiled and turned toward the main road. The planetary fortress was utterly different from the previous fortress city. A golden river ran through the city. The streets that extended in all directions were paved with sparkling platinum-colored floors. There were towering palaces all around the streets. The huge crystal dome blocked the sunlight, allowing the sunlight to shine in without being too dazzling.
Many people walked down the streets, either laughing and chatting or going to the shops to buy goods. It was a peaceful scene.
Without having the time to appreciate the scenery, Deena had brought the officials to a tavern called the Holy Dragon Tavern. The tavern had three floors. The outside was a retro courtyard, and the inside was filled with tower-shaped buildings. The sound of flowing water could be faintly heard around the building.
"Holy Dragon Tavern? What kind of tavern is this? How come I've never heard of it before?" An official looked at the tavern before him and fell into deep thought. As an official of the original fortress city, he was very familiar with that city. He knew every street, but he had never heard of that tavern. There was only one explanation for that situation—it was new.
It looked like it was built in a day. Was that possible?
"I seem to have heard of that name somewhere before..." Fawkes rubbed his chin and thought for a moment before his eyes suddenly widened. "Wait, I remember now. Isn't the Holy Dragon Tavern the most famous tavern in the capital? I have traveled to the capital and eaten food in that tavern."
"That's right. This Holy Dragon Tavern is a branch of the main tavern in the capital. Lord Fawkes had proposed building the planetary fortress into a tourist city. So, the first priority is bringing food and beverages, so I've informed my men to build a Holy Dragon Tavern here."
While Deena was explaining to the officials around her with a smile, the Severed Fingers Gang members were carrying goods into the tavern.
"Everyone, be careful. All those items, such as sun-fruit wine and Angel wine, are fragile. Don't break them."
The leader was a burly man. Suddenly, a member ran toward him. He said in a low voice, "Boss, there's a problem with the building complex. One of the courtyards is built ten inches away from its original position. What should we do?"
"What else can we do? Tear it down and rebuild it. Do you need me to teach you such a trivial thing?"
The burly man rolled his eyes. The member immediately responded respectfully. He spread his combat aura wings and flew into the air. He extended his right hand toward one of the courtyards of the Holy Dragon Tavern and pressed downward.
Boom!
The ground flashed with a rich earthy-yellow light and instantly collapsed. A deep pit that stretched for dozens of meters appeared on the ground. There was no doubt that that attack had the power of a platinum-tier elite when it shattered the ground with one strike.
After shattering the ground, a few Severed Fingers Gang members also rose into the air and chanted a spell. Then, they used magic to change the shape of the meteors, transforming them into houses in the courtyard's original location.
It took less than a minute to shatter and rebuild a courtyard. That scene stunned all the officials.
"Those people are so powerful. Are they platinum-tier elites? It's too extravagant to use platinum-tier elites to build a house."
They finally knew how the Holy Dragon Tavern was built in such a short time.
"Lady Deena, if I remember correctly, it was less than half an hour ago when we discussed the future development plan in the conference room. How did you inform those people to do that in such a short time?" When Fawkes swallowed his saliva, the shock on his face lasted for a few seconds before it disappeared.
"That's a great question. They came through the golden river that runs through the city. The river that Young Master Watson created can teleport people. As long as they are around the river, they can instantly reach any places they want to go. I managed to send a message to them via the House of Everything."
Deena reached out and pointed at a tower-shaped building that was even bigger than the tavern next to the Holy Dragon Tavern.
"That is the House of Everything. Before we eat, everyone should go in and take a look. After all, that is the planetary fortress' main profitable project in the future."
