Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Inside Station God, Lant walked up the steps leading to the rest area, with Jiao Lang and Lin Mao on his left and right, and the legendary fox Sulus followed at the back.

"Your Majesty and Excellencies, welcome to the banquet of the Magic Forge Caster!" Wendy and other girls put on uniforms and lined up in two rows at the entrance of the restaurant to greet them.

Seafood, barbecue, small hot pot, the delicacies in God's country made Sulusi, who had transformed into a human form, enjoy eating. A cat and a wolf were fed by Firefly and Lili.

"Boom boom boom... boom boom boom"

Faneuil and Qiucao were standing next to two big red drums, holding a long mallet in each hand, sometimes beating the drums, and sometimes hitting each other with the mallet handles. The dance team of the two had a lively rhythm and highly confrontational movements, which attracted Lant. He was also stunned for a moment.

After the dance ended, Sulusi praised loudly: "Your Majesty's banquet was really eye-opening! Even if it is the royal court's centenary celebration, I have never tasted such delicious dishes!"

"Woooo~"

"Meow~"

Mao Mao and Jiao Lang expressed their satisfaction, but after sending the three of them away, Lant was a little too tired.

"Lant? Are you okay?"

Seeing that Lant had some difficulty getting up from his seat, Wendy quickly ran over and hugged him.

"After all, he is not a true god," Lant said with a wry smile. "Forcibly pretending to be big in front of two true gods and a legend, you have to pay a price."

After this period of exploration and experience at the station, Lant gradually understood the meaning of the so-called Kingdom of God. For gods, Kingdom of God is their residence and part of their power.

The girls are followers of Lant, and their magic level has always been lower than Lant. Even if they eat and drink in the station every day, they have achieved an internal circulation of energy between God and believers. Even if they can lever Wen Di and others' rapid breakthrough and upgrade is still considered an investment.

However, inviting cats, wolves and legendary foxes to dinner is different. It is simply an act of publicity. Putting aside the deterrent effect on the foxes, it is not an exaggeration to say that Lant feeds the tigers with his body.

When Lant woke up again in the lord's bedroom in Iowa, it was already noon on October 10.

Yesterday, after a full day of fighting during the day, White Wolf underwent a two-hour operation at night, and there was also a banquet at night. After waking up, Lant felt as if he had stayed up for several nights.

"If I had known better, I should have eaten a rat god!" When tired, Lant said with some regret.

"Oh, Lant, you're finally awake!" The voice of the magic pattern tiger sounded outside the door. She couldn't wait to urge the attendants to open the two doors of the bedroom, "Hurry up, Lant must be eager to see me!"

When the two doors were completely opened to the maximum angle, Lant finally understood why the Magic Pattern Tiger was so anxious: She had reached a high-level breakthrough yesterday, and her figure was even bigger than before. She was so big that when she lay on the ground, her head was spinning. It touches the 10-meter-high roof; it is so big that if you lie on the ground to enter the house, your body may be blocked by the double door opening.

"It's over, you can only live in a cave from now on." Lant couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Lant, don't be like this. Tiger finally broke through. How can she get used to living in that cramped cave?" Liehuo said in a sinister tone behind the magic-patterned tiger, "Look, the Iowa Pass has not been repaired yet. Well, I suggest you don’t repair it, just let it block it and use it as a movable city gate. Not only is it spacious, but it can also scare the orcs!"

"Ah, how could you do this to me? How can those orcs have any good food to eat? How can they afford to feed me!" When the magic pattern tiger saw Lant walking over with a smile, he didn't plan to get into the door and simply stayed there. Start rolling.

"I can't afford it anymore. With your size, you have to eat hundreds of kilograms of meat every day, right?" Lant affectionately stroked the magic pattern tiger's big head.

"No, as long as I don't move, I won't consume too much food." The tiger's eyes were full of sincerity.While touching, Lant said: "There is a magic pattern of life in Shanglin Garden in the Imperial Capital, which allows high-level monsters to put part of their body into the magic net to change their body shape. You should go to the Imperial Capital when you have time. Bar!"

This kind of magic pattern corresponds to the human race's transformation technique. This is a magic that almost everyone among high-level mages can do, allowing them to make themselves look less tall.

"Ah, I don't want to go to the Imperial Capital..." Tiger made a purring sound, which, considering her size, was like a running 3-cylinder engine.

Before the monsters could continue chatting with Lant, Little Cardinal came to the room, holding a thick stack of reports in his hand.

"Rand, Rand! You are finally awake. There are dozens of documents here that you need to decide on!"

"Come on~"

Seeing that the work had been laid out, Lant let out a sigh, took the thick documents in his hand, and opened them one by one to sign.

The scope of the documents ranges from Iowa's post-war recovery plan, the burial and subsidies of fallen knights and cavalry auxiliaries, the mobilization of personnel, materials, food, and magical beasts in the territory, to the settlement of various funds during the war, scattered here and there. It covers all aspects of the post-war period.

"This..."

When he saw the war aid and post-war repayment plan from the Imperial Capital Finance Department, Rand suddenly frowned.

Many aids during the war protection period are not free. The empire will package an aid bill with the protection policy based on the scale of the war and the specific needs of the participants. Relevant expenses during the war will be recorded in advance, and after the war is over in the future, the aid will be repaid at the cost price. Just pay.

Of course, the amount of assistance and cost-price repayment are all words on the bill. As for the specific amount, it is personally determined by the financial wizards of the Department of Finance.

At this moment, Lant deeply understood the power of the financial wizards: "We fought for 2 months and spent nearly 200 million gold coins?"

"200?"

Magic Pattern Tiger and Lie Huo looked at each other with wide eyes at the same time, and the not-so-loud voices of the two monsters echoed in the room.

In Rand's impression, the main expenses of the war include personnel wages, subsidies, the allocation and losses of ordnance, food, grass and monsters. The total of these aspects is less than 20 gold coins, which is an order of magnitude different from what is on the bill.

"This is the quotation from the Imperial Finance Department. The bulk of it is some of the magic pattern crossbows, arrowheads, siege equipment and our customized canal ships commissioned by several workshops produced by the Finance Department. About a dozen workshops have carried out production in order to switch production. If the factory is renovated, the money will be included in the bill.”

"I still have to pay for their factory upgrades?" Lant was a little shocked.

"If you take a look at the back, the Finance Department says that if you pay according to this bill, you can get certain shares in those 10 workshops in the future."

"Hmph, a new financial game." Lant shook the bill, "I won't sign this yet. I think their algorithm is weird. 200 million gold coins here is enough to open 20 new workshops. "

"It's up to you, I think it doesn't matter if you sign," Little Red Bird said with a smile, "Now the appearance fee for the ancestors alone is already 50 gold coins."

"What's the matter?"
