Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 652 Wilderness
Once the dust had settled inside the treehouse, Yaro took out the household items he had brought from the stone courtyard from his spatial ring and then explained:

“I’m taking Bevan back to the territory to gather craftsmen and plan the formal architecture for the Bright Moon Palace. Although the walls made of branches around here are drafty and let in light, they are enough to keep out ordinary wild animals, so you can stay indoors and not go out easily.”

"Huh? I have to go back too? Can't I wait here?"

As a young man, Bevin developed a subtle affection for Dorothea after spending several days together.

Now, Master has taken them away alone, leaving these girls all alone in this desolate wilderness—although Master said that the tree branch wall could keep out wild beasts, what if something even more powerful comes?
Even if he went, he might not be of much help, but at least... at least he wasn't a deserter!

But Yaro just smiled and shook his head.

“I brought you and your father with me. If I go back alone and send people to this desolate place, they will probably think that I, the ‘evil’ wizard, have finally revealed my true colors and am trying to lure them back to my lair for a dark ritual sacrifice.”

“Master, your joke isn’t funny at all!” Bevin muttered dejectedly.

"Lord Yarrow!" Dorothea took a small step forward and curtsied slightly. "When you go back to gather the craftsmen, could you please bring along the sewing and tailoring tools as well?"

Yaro paused, casting a questioning glance at him.

Dorothea explained, "The design of the feather robe you delivered was too ingenious. Just thinking about it on paper made the sisters feel uneasy and unsure of what to do with it."

If I had tools like needles and thread, fabrics of different thicknesses, rulers, and delicate scissors to try it out, even just using some scraps of fabric to make a basic sample, it would be better than just imagining it and feeling uncertain..."

Yaro raised an eyebrow. "I almost forgot! Sure, I'll prepare the tools and materials for you."

“Master!” Bevin’s eyes lit up and he quickly interjected, “Do you remember Phoebe? She’s a very good seamstress, we can ask her to come and help!”

Yaro certainly wouldn't forget Phoebe, after all, the clothes he was wearing now were sewn by Phoebe.

The problem is, Phoebe is the only tailor in the Baron’s mansion. What will happen to the Baron’s mansion if she is transferred away?
"...After you get back, go and discuss it with Dylan first."

The son sells his father's land; outsiders need not say more.

Besides, it might not necessarily be a sale; it could just be a transfer from one hand to the other.

……

When they reached the valley wall, Yaro did not rush to send Bevan up.

Instead, they use their lightness skill to ride the wind and manipulate the subtle control of the natural structure using the "遁甲" (遁甲) technique to precisely inject the earth-based magic of the "Tripping Technique" into the stress nodes or vulnerable joints inside the rock.

The summoned stalagmites are like wedges precisely driven into the heart of the mountain, either tearing open cracks in an instant or suddenly disrupting the balance point and causing local collapses, carving out a winding mountain path hundreds of meters long on the steep rock face nearly a hundred meters high.

After escorting Bevin onto the newly carved, narrow mountain path, Yaro took the opportunity to check the road conditions and make appropriate adjustments based on Bevin's actual usage.

When Bevin finally reached the top of the cliff, panting heavily, his back was soaked with sweat.

He rubbed his aching arms, panting heavily, and asked:
"Master, you can fly up here with your people in the blink of an eye, why go through all this trouble to dig a road?"

“This mountain road is for the craftsmen. The Mingyue Palace will not be finished in a short time, and I cannot stay here forever. So when I go back this time, I must first clear a mountain road for them, otherwise it will be difficult for them to get down to the bottom of the valley.”

“Don’t we still have hot air balloons? We can use them to send people down.” “The air currents in the valley are unpredictable. Using hot air balloons is too risky. One wrong move and we’d be smashed to pieces. It’s better to clear a path on solid ground.”

Bevin's expression changed slightly, as if he had imagined the horrific scene of the hot air balloon crashing into the mountainside.

"Then forget it... By the way, Master, this mountain path should be passable now, right?"

“It’s possible to walk, but going downhill is more difficult than going uphill. When we get back, it would be best to have Dylan prepare a few ropes that are long enough to serve as both guardrails and safety ropes to prevent accidental falls.”

Bevan turned around and glanced at him.

But the misty fog obscured the lower half of the mountain path, which was only foot-width wide. The path clung to the rock face like a gecko, its indistinct outline winding downwards, appearing and disappearing in the rising moisture.

The wind whistled in my ears, and the entire canyon seemed to have a strange suction force, pulling at my heartstrings, as if trying to draw me down.

Bevin instinctively took two steps back, then realized he had acted too hastily and quickly tried to cover it up:

"Then let's hurry and find Dylan..."

At this point, Bevin suddenly paused, looked around at the unfamiliar wilderness, and asked with some confusion:

"Um... Master, which way should we go next?"

Yaro actually knew.

He had once noticed someone spying on him. In order to find the spying enemy and hide the production plan of nitroglycerin, he found a place outside Perrin Castle where he could observe and was quite familiar with the surrounding terrain.

"If you cross that mountain to the left, you'll see Perrin Castle. If you go to the right, you can directly reach the border post between Perrin's territory and the Viscount's territory. From there, you can ride a horse and quickly reach Lix City."

"Understood, Master. Then we'll go to the right."

"Let's go then."

Yaro said no more and led Bevan toward the animal trail in the ravine on the right.

The edges of the rock face were still bare rock, but as you went a little deeper, the surrounding vegetation increased, and the scent of the vegetation was mixed with a faint, fishy smell of wild animals.

As you walk, the bushes along the edge occasionally stir abruptly, and long, emerald-green snakes flash by in the shadows.

Intermittent, indistinct howls of beasts echoed around them, and occasionally, the silhouettes of deer would appear and disappear behind the bushes, their ears pricked up as they warily watched the uninvited guests.

The enormous brown bear moved lazily across the distant hillside, its murky eyes seemingly glancing casually in their direction.

These beasts posed no threat to Yaro. If he hadn't been protecting Bevan, and if killing one or two beasts wouldn't have solved the problem, he probably would have rushed over to reap the experience points long ago.

However, if we were to bring the craftsmen over, this stretch of desolate road would be quite dangerous.

Yaro glanced at the brown bear strolling through the woods and thought to himself:
“Although these beasts are not to be feared, they are still a threat to the craftsmen. It seems that Anabe should lead the demon hunters along. They can protect the craftsmen and also explore Wugong Mountain, investigate the demon cave, and solve the Viscountess’s problem. Similarly, after the craftsmen complete the construction of Mingyue Palace, they can also build Wugong Mountain.”
