Chapter 299: The Traditional Costume of the Golden Peacock?
Seeing her student happily bouncing off to the kitchen to prepare the "teaching materials" for the afternoon, Lolth thought about what she should do.
"Hmm… After taking out those two items last night, it’s also time to start mass production."
Lolth was referring to the "Resonance Crystal" and the "magic energy storage stone."
No matter what kind of entertainment center and upgraded public facilities like streetlights need to be built in the project, these two are essentials.
As long as these two things can be mass-produced, Hillenbrand Town can really move quickly into modernization!
Of course, building a factory is not something that can happen just like that.
Where to build it and how to operate it afterward are important things to think about.
Although there is no shortage of construction talent, there is still a lack of management talent, technical talent, and even some places that need Superoperators.
However… these issues can be resolved smoothly in due time.
After all, those mercenaries have not been put to use yet.
Even if some of these Superoperators are needed for public transportation to drive, there will still be plenty of talent available.
Of course, this is only if they have completely accepted the ideological transformation and confirmed that they won’t pose any social danger.
Luckily, the school opened today!
The training of management and technical talents can also be achieved through schools.
So, thinking about it this way, it doesn’t seem so urgent after all.
Now, the people at City Hall should all be busy with the operation of public facilities like schools and hospitals, so even if Lolth wants to pass on the construction plan for Phase Three, this isn’t a good time.
"Thinking about it, I’m starting to feel a bit unaccustomed to doing nothing!"
Lolth sighed, realizing that even her favorite way of relaxing had become unfamiliar.
Indeed, her initial judgment was correct. As long as she had a territory, she could enjoy its benefits, but no matter how much she tried to avoid responsibility, problems and worries still came one after another.
However, Lolth didn’t realize that issues like "evil god invasion," "Divine Artifact crashing down," or even "starting factories and schools" are really not the usual "lord’s worries" in a normal territory.
The events that happened in Hillenbrand Town over the past few months are truly unique on the entire continent!
Just having two encounters with different evil gods is enough to make even the most capable king laugh wryly and feel like he’s suffered an awful fate.
Of course, there are some records in history where most kingdoms or cities experienced a visit from the realm of evil gods at least once.
The reason there usually isn’t a second visit isn’t because the evil gods really never come back.
For most kingdoms and cities, the opening of the first portal to the realm of evil gods is often the last event in their history.
It is already quite rare for there to be any records left behind.
There aren’t many people like Lolth who can close the portal to evil gods twice—though both times had their quirks, one was a nearly dead evil god, and the other was assisted by outside forces without Lolth knowing.
However, closing the portal to the evil realm in Minstrel’s stories usually requires sacrificing the main character or losing three or four members of the main group.
There aren’t many people like Lolth who can do that as easily as eating or drinking.
After thinking for a while in the corridor, Lolth made up her mind.
"I should at least take a look at the school; after all, it’s the first day of school!"
Lolth said this.
It seems that she is still a principal in name!
This title was naturally given to her by Tina.
Tina, in turn, is once again taking on the duties of acting principal.
Lolth really hasn’t managed how the school functions and prepares after the building was completed.
However, Lolth feels that it wouldn’t be right not to visit the school on the first day.
Of course, Hillenbrand Town’s school is not a full-time school, so there probably won’t be any opening ceremony.
But Lolth still thinks that it would be great to walk around the campus on the first day of school as the "principal"!
This is also the simplest dream of everyone who has experienced exam-oriented education.
Lolth thought this and slowly put her hands behind her back, getting ready to sneak into school like an old principal.
Anyway… she really had nothing else to do.
As she strolled to the door of Dorothy’s room, the door of the Golden Peacock’s special interrogation room suddenly opened.
Dorothy, who opened the door, stepped out and was slightly surprised to see Lolth.
Then, her face turned red.
"Old… teacher…"
Dorothy lowered her head and greeted Lolth softly.
Lolth was even more confused than Dorothy.
It was mainly not because Dorothy had a somewhat shy posture.
But rather because of the "new clothes" Dorothy was wearing.
In fact, the reason Lolth was not very surprised by Dorothy’s shy posture was that her outfit made Lolth think, "She must be very shy!"
Although this completely guessed the wrong reason, Dorothy’s shyness was purely because she saw her dream last night, but Lolth’s conclusion was quite reasonable.
Because Dorothy’s outfit was indeed somewhat novel for her and the whole continent.
A pleated black plaid skirt, knee-high socks, a white short-sleeve shirt, and a black bow tie…
Even her hairstyle changed to a very schoolgirl-like low ponytail with bangs.
The kind of outfit that looked like a JK uniform appeared on Dorothy.
This was exactly how she dressed in Lolth’s "dream memories" from last night!
But that was, after all, a memory of "Desire Reaction" created by the "Daydream Fruit." In fact, Lolth never wore such a uniform in her past life.
During her student days, she actually wore loose sports uniforms with big pockets.
She had only seen such uniforms in comics and TV shows in both of her lives.
At that moment, when it appeared in front of her eyes, Lolth felt a wave of dizziness.
Although it seemed out of place in this world, it matched perfectly with Dorothy, this fifteen-year-old girl!
Plus, her shy posture and awkward look…
Even though she knew Dorothy was her student, Lolth felt a moment of her tail twitching.
"Dorothy… you… what are you wearing?"
Lolth licked her slightly dry lips and looked away as she spoke.
"I designed this myself, inspired by the Seychelles and some outfits from our Golden Peacock," Dorothy said, blushing. "Wha… what’s wrong?"
