Mage Joan

Chapter 357: Sawmill crisis

"I understand."

Joan nodded suddenly, fully agreeing with the choice made by the town council.

Delin Township is, after all, a southern township dominated by agriculture. Most of its residents live on farming. If the crops fail due to insect damage, many families are bound to suffer from starvation.

Compared to the urgency of expelling pests to protect the autumn harvest, plant pests are less critical. Moreover, the affected Dingdall and Flint families are the top wealthy families in the town, and temporarily closing the factories will not affect their livelihoods.

Of course, from a moral point of view, Jason Dingdall and Flint Anvil, as senior government officials in the town, are admirable to be able to take care of the overall situation without sacrificing their own interests.

"Aunt Dindal, we saw the reward notice posted by your house at the grocery store, and we plan to take this task, don't you mind?"

Kandy asked the mayor's wife.

"Of course I don't mind, but you are still young. I really don't worry if you go to the lumber yard to take risks."

"You don't have to worry about this. Yesterday we helped Mr. Flint eliminate the pests in the forge. Will the pests in the logging farm be more difficult to deal with?" Kandy said with a smile.

"Really? That would be great!"

The mayor's wife looked upset and quickly got up to call the housekeeper, and told him to bring the key to the logging gate to guide Joan and Conti.

Joan said goodbye to the mayor's wife, accompanied by Kandy, Gray and Jamie, followed the butler to leave the mayor's house.

I walked about half a mile along the river beach, and saw the small pier built by Linhe in the distance, next to the sawmill surrounded by the wall.

When the sawmill started normally, the lumberjack felled trees in the dense forest on the upper Delin River, directly pushed the rough-processed logs into the river, and drifted down the river until it was intercepted by the dam near the dock, salvaged and sent to the saw In a wood factory, after drying and drying, it is finished and cut into wood and wood.

Today's lumberyard is quiet, the old housekeeper opened the door and hid, amidst panic, apparently unwilling to venture into the yard where the monster lurks. Joanne didn't force him either, and took Jamie into the courtyard, and Condy and Gray followed.

The sawmill has a vast area, and there are piles of logs neatly stacked in the courtyard that can't be seen at a glance. Each pile is as high as two floors.

Due to the prolonged work stoppage and the abundant rain in summer, the yard was already overgrown with half-height grass, which covered the road leading to the construction site and looked a bit desolate.

Jamie sniffed in front, and Kandy followed, holding an oak cane to pull away the blocked artemisia. Occasionally, broken wood chips were seen thrown into the grass, looking like the residue left after the giant insect gnawed.

For safety reasons, Joan took out the "magic alarm" made of earthworm tentacles from the storage bag to detect the wind and grass around him.

Gray carried a thick iron rod and followed Joan behind to take care of it.

This large "spike bar" is a tailor-made weapon for Gray by the old dwarf Flint. Weighing more than two hundred pounds, it is six feet long, thick at the front and thin at the back, and many sharp prismatic steel nails are inlaid on the stick head, which shimmers in the sun with a chilling light.

A group of people walked through the grass to the factory work area. The surroundings were quiet, without a trace of wind, but Jamie's eyes widened alertly, screaming at a work shed.

Joan looked at the trembling alarm in his hand and confirmed that there were dangerous creatures hidden in the shed according to the angle of the tentacle deflection, and then gave Conti a glance.

Kandy nodded, took out the keel and returned to the dart, struggling towards the open fence door of the workshop.

The dart circling through the door and flew into the shed without knowing what was hit, making a mumble, then flew back and fell into Conti's hands.

There was a loud noise from the work shed, the fence door was suddenly knocked off, and a large brown beetle like a cow rushed out of the air.

This monster has a pair of huge horns on its head, which is the "big stag beetle" that Joan had seen in the Vasa's ranch.

When it comes to dealing with such large-scale pests, no one is richer than Joanne.

As early as the hissing sound came from the work shed, he heard more than one big stag beetle lurking inside. He took out two bottles of the insecticide he had prepared in advance and saw the big stag beetle rushing out, throwing it out of his hands without thinking. Medicine bottle.

boom!

boom!

Two glass bottles smashed on the head of the big stag beetle, shattered on the spot, the mist-like insecticide escaped, and the big stag beetle was dizzy and dizzy, and it sighed in pain on the grass.

Grey took the opportunity to rush up, struck his mace on the head of the big stag beetle, the hard horns could not bear such a heavy blow, and even the horned head was smashed by the gray bag.

At this time, three large stag beetles rushed out of the work shed one after another, screaming at Grey, seeming to avenge his companion who was killed by the giant gray stick.

Joan whistle to remind Gray to retreat as soon as possible so as not to fall into the big antlers.

Kandy quickly cast a spellcasting gesture, chanting the sacred prayer of praise to the mother of nature, stomping his feet abruptly, and the ground glowed with a green glow.

The surrounding weeds grew like crazy with hormones, and after a few seconds, they evolved into countless thorny vines, entangled all three big antlers on the opposite side, and became difficult to act.

Joan left the three monsters bound by natural magic to Kandy and Gray to deal with it, took Jamie to bypass the thorny zone, walked into the shed and observed it, confirmed that there were no other monsters lurking in it, and then retreated When he came out, he turned and walked towards the dock.

The operating area near the wharf has been submerged by weeds, and three large "hydrodynamic saws" installed on the river bank are faintly visible in the grass.

These mechanical devices used to process logs should have been connected to the waterwheel in the river by a transmission rod. Now the transmission rod has been gnawed by the monsters. The waterwheel is still tumbling under the impact of the waves, but the saws that have lost power are abandoned. Rust has grown in the grass.

At this moment Jamie stopped and growled at the platform where the saw was placed.

There was also a hissing tweet behind the red brick piled platform, quickly from far to near.

The moving monsters seemed to resemble hounds, and their bodies were covered by thick grass. Joan could only shake violently through the grass, guessing that they were approaching towards the place where he and Jamie were standing.

Joan took a piece of mica from the spellcasting material bag and chanted the spellcasting spell in his hands.

"Tinwé!"

Joan waved out the crushed mica, and a flickering dust covered the grass hidden by the pest.

The magical brilliance exploded violently, blinding the eyes of all pests in the grass.

"Úré!"

Joan put his hands together with his thumbs, and the other four fingers spread out. The magical power turned into a fan-shaped flame through his fingertips, which instantly ignited the grass on the opposite side and raised a raging fire.
