The arrival of the Forest Heart garrison wizard accelerated the construction of the city walls tenfold; the working speed of a Level One Elemental Wizard is unimaginable for ordinary people.
All sorts of magical witchcraft are seen as miracles by ordinary people!
Another advantage is that wizards can draw simple rune arrays on the city walls, greatly enhancing their defensive capabilities.
With the presence of a wizard, few wild beasts dare to attack the town!
In less than a year, the 30-meter-high and 50-kilometer-long city wall was completed.
Amid cheers from hundreds of thousands of residents of Falling Sunset City, Leo wrote the three characters "Falling Sunset City" on the city wall.
Seeing Leo and Alice being supported by ordinary people, Tuotuoyasi bitter inside.
Who would have thought that a first-level Level One Elemental Wizard would build city walls for ordinary people? If other wizards found out, his lifelong reputation would be ruined!
The scene he witnessed when he entered Leo and Alice's room that day completely shocked him.
He had heard of such practices by Advanced Wizard in their lives as ordinary people before, but this was the first time he had ever seen it in person.
And their first encounter was with Legendary Wizard!
He was almost scared to death!
The rest was easy; he didn't even know the names of the two wizards, he just needed to obey their orders.
He, a Level One Formal Wizard, readily became a high-level wage earner.
"Masters, what should I do next?"
Privately, Tuotuoyasi approached Leo and Alice to inquire about his upcoming work arrangements.
Standing nervously in the courtyard, this Heart of the Forest Academy's dispatched wizard awaited Leo's orders with utmost respect.
He had secretly sent the news of the appearance of Advanced Wizard in Falling Sunset City back to the academy. After receiving the news, the academy told him that he only needed to obey the other party's orders as long as he did not violate the academy's rules.
Tuotuoyasi understood that he had been betrayed, and their academy was unwilling to offend two wizards over a city.
Moreover, this city was built by these two wizards themselves.
If they weren't still unaware of the two wizards' backgrounds, their academy would have wanted to recruit them.
I heard that this matter has even alarmed the great Forest Heart Stigmata Wizard!
"Just do what you're supposed to do at the garrison. Treat us like ordinary people. And don't come looking for us on your own initiative. What kind of wizard would go out of their way to meet an ordinary person?"
Wrinkles have appeared on Leo and Alice's faces; they are middle-aged and no longer the youthful people they once were.
He was dressed in ordinary clothes and had no aura, but Tuotuoyasi still stood obediently in front of them, not daring to make any disrespectful move.
"We'll also tell the academy behind us that we have no academy background, we're not here to start a war, and we have no intention of joining any faction. We are lone wizards who just want to experience the life of ordinary people."
In order to live in peace from now on, Leo had to make his stance clear: he did not want to face endless harassment from the wizards.
"Then I won't bother you two masters anymore."
Tuotuoyasi breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't have any ulterior motives, it was fine. These two were just here to experience life, so let them be. Anyway, he was a permanent resident, and as long as no problems arose during his term, everything would be alright.
Are you satisfied with the current environment?
After Tuotuoyasi left, Leo took Alice's hand and asked...
Alice looked at the clean, tidy, and bustling Falling Sunset City, and nestled happily in Leo's arms, saying, "I'm happy wherever I am with you."
No woman can resist a man who builds a city for her and, to please her, reshapes the entire city to resemble her ideal.
Being with the one you love is happiness.
Time seems to be unwilling to witness such a happy event. Yesterday, it was Tuotuoyasi who was the resident wizard, but today it's someone else.
The newly arrived resident wizard followed Tuotuoyasi's advice: as long as he didn't disturb the two wizards' normal lives, there wouldn't be any problems, as the two wizards were quite easy to get along with.
So after meeting once that day when the resident wizard was changed, they never saw each other again.
" Elder Bai, Grandma Bai..."
Leo's body was hunched over, but he still held Alice's hand and took walks in Falling Sunset City Heavenly Capital. People passing by would stop and greet the legendary couple.
The history of Falling Sunset City has been written into a book and placed in the city library; everyone knows it.
Without this couple, this place would not have become a big city; it would still be a small fishing village that would have remained unchanged for hundreds of years.
The lives of hundreds of thousands of people were changed because of this couple. Although they were not the city lords, they held a higher status than the city lords.
Leo and Alice have evolved from Xiao Bai and Xiaobai's Wife to being Elder Bai and Grandma Bai.
"Should we die?" Alice asked Leo when she returned home that night.
All the villagers of Falling Sunset Village from that year have died. Only the two of them remain from that group. If they continue to live, it might arouse suspicion.
How do you want to die?
Leo's eyes were somewhat cloudy; the dim light of the candle was insufficient for him to see the furnishings in the room at night. He was indeed getting old; his eyesight was failing.
"Hitch onto our oxcart, and wherever you go, you'll die. What do you say?"
"Great! Of those three cows, only one is left, and it's almost old and dying. Let's go together."
Leo acted immediately. He went out, harnessed an old, toothless ox to the cart, laid out a quilt on the cart, prepared some food, and then carried Alice onto the cart.
Leave a note in the room, give a shout, and the oxcart slowly heads out of the city.
In the quiet night, with only the sound of wheels rolling over the road, Leo lay on the oxcart with Alice in his arms, looking at the starry sky, just like the first time they drove the oxcart home from town.
The only difference is that the cow that pulled the cart back then pulled it incredibly fast, but this cow, the calf that fell into the trap back then, no longer has much strength to pull the cart, and it moves very slowly.
The two remained silent, embracing quietly. Leo spotted the garrison wizard hiding in the air, his lips barely moving, and the wizard vanished instantly.
Seeing that the troublesome fellow was gone, Leo smiled on his aged face and, worried that Alice might be cold, tightened the blanket around her.
After an unknown amount of time, the slowly moving oxcart suddenly stopped.
Leo patted Alice, who was also sleeping on his chest, and said, "Old Niu is dead. Our lives are over."
Alice, supported by Leo, stepped off the oxcart and saw the old ox from home kneeling on the ground, its breath long gone.
"He's been with us for fifty years, and it's a little sad to see him leave so suddenly," Alice said.
"He lived to a ripe old age, leaving behind countless descendants. He lived a very happy life."
Leo's aura gradually emerged, his aged face regained its youthfulness, his coarse cloth clothes transformed into a wizard's robe, and with a reach, the Godslaying Staff appeared in his hand.
His cold, aloof face only softened when he looked at Alice.
With a casual wave of his hand, he blasted a large crater in the ground, sweeping the entire oxcart into it.
Alice regained her youthful appearance, pointed at the old cow with one hand, and instantly a large block of ice appeared, freezing the old cow in place.
"His body will not decay within thirty years."
Leo smiled indulgently. He had gotten used to it over the years, and he supported all of Alice's decisions.
Simply covering it with soil is considered burying the old ox, but it also buries their lives as ordinary people.
"You guys are really heartless. You haven't spoken to me for fifty years. Aren't you afraid I'll blow up the house?"
Before Leo and Alice could even return to the Tower of Elements, Yaoyao's complaining voice came from Leo's shoulder.
Fifty years ago, Leo, Yaoyao, and Benji had a rule that they could not appear unless Leo actively restored his appearance or released witchcraft.
Yaoyao's appearance is not suitable for the ordinary world, otherwise everyone would know that they are not ordinary people.
But Yaoyao and Leo share the same soul; they are one soul, and Yao Yao knows about Leo's daily life.
So when Leo and Alice had just regained their wizard identities, Yaoyao noticed and appeared instantly.
"We're entrusting this home to you, and we're sure you'll take excellent care of it. If we didn't have that confidence in you, we wouldn't be Yaoyao."
Alice gently Yaoyao, and a word of praise instantly made Yaoyao proudly puff out her little belly.
"Absolutely..." Yaoyao chuckled foolishly.
"Haha, let's go home."
The Tower of Elements, the territory of Leo and Alice.
Because Alice advanced to level two, her territory also expanded to 100 square kilometers. Combined with Leo's territory, it totaled 200 square kilometers, greatly relieving the pressure on Leo's territory.
The tallest life form in the territory is still Leo's Tree of Life, which has now exceeded two hundred meters and is growing faster every year. This means that it is absorbing more and more energy from the branches of the World Tree and will grow exponentially.
Fifty years ago, there were only 50,000 adult level one Gulu Beast. Now, their numbers have grown to 500,000. This is only because their territory is not large enough, which strictly limits their breeding rate. Otherwise, their numbers could exceed one million.
Once any race reaches a certain initial population size, its subsequent reproduction and growth rate will be extremely rapid.
Back when the Gulu Beast army only numbered 110, Leo forced them to have children, and now he wants to control their reproduction.
500,000 is not the limit of their reproduction, but the limit of their territory!
There were originally three thousand level-two Gulu Beast, and now there are ten thousand. As for the number of level-three Gulu Beast, there is still only one, Benji.
The output rate at level three is still pitifully low!
"Welcome home, Lord Leo Alice."
The sizable army of Gulu Beast, led by Benji, shouted in unison.
They all knew that the two masters had gone off to enjoy some time alone, but they never imagined that they would be gone for a full fifty years.
"I feel that if we encounter a miniature world without World Lord, we can conquer it on our own."
Leo, holding Alice's hand, looked proudly at his army of Gulu Beast and said...
If he wanted to mass produce troops, he could increase the number of Gulu Beast to over a million in twenty years. Adults would be level one, and level one would be combat power.
If such an army were placed on Earth, as long as they could evade nuclear weapons, they could easily sweep through it.
"You're right."
Alice pandered to this proud man, but she also admired him for having every right to be proud.
