I have a map editor

In fact, with the Tree of Life as the conceptual guide and infuser of energy, rituals and prayers are not important and can be ignored. However, as the saying goes, one can see one's heart and nature. In order to strengthen the projection of the core concept of the Sheriff system on the mind and soul, Lucas designed a set of prayers for Merry in a concise manner.

"Sincerely"

"I, Merri Winter, will always protect Crown Eagle Mountain."

"I will uphold justice and support the weak"

"I will uphold justice and will not fear power"

"I will uphold purity and reject evil"

"I will not be afraid of the darkness and will move forward courageously"

"I will stick to my original intention and protect peace"

“Until death”

As Meili chanted, points of light in the air began to gather towards her, and as she uttered her oaths firmly and without the slightest hesitation, circles of golden light spread out from her like water waves, spreading in all directions.

The gentle ripples impacted the bodies and faces of the people around him. Everyone felt a sense of clarity and transparency as their souls were cleansed, while also feeling the solemnity and seriousness in Meili's words.

Stately, but warm.

A lightsaber made of golden light formed above Merry's head and then merged into her body from the top of her head.

This strange sight made Hope and the others open their eyes wide and cover their mouths and cry out.

The oath that Lucas designed for Merry did not contain any worship, reliance or dependence on gods. Instead, it was all about the recognition, affirmation and expectation of one's own heart. It was a supernatural ceremony presided over by him... and the [Tree of Life]. As long as Merry could stick to the path in the prayer, her future achievements would not be limited to being a [Sheriff] in a closed space.

Moreover, as long as there are extraordinary concepts such as "justice" and "legitimacy", she can even suppress the extraordinary people in the divine system.

As for the trial, forget it. She is just a [Sheriff], not a judge or inquisitor.

In the eyes of others, although the Lucas family did not open the "Attribute Panel", each of them had an "ID Card" and could also use the special vision of the [Basic Town Citizen Attribute Panel] to observe that the label around Merry's head had changed.

The originally square frame is now decorated with a golden dragon border.

The [Town Citizen] column also becomes [Sheriff (Lv.: 12/48)]

And the color is a light purple that is different from others.

Yes, that's right. In addition to the magic circle and the ceremony, Lucas also personally sponsored some [Soul Fragments] and [Hero's

Soul], which enabled Meili's original three-star excellent quality panel to evolve and upgrade to a four-star epic. With the condensed magic power and extraordinary power similar to the power of faith, her own panel data was also corrected and supplemented.

To put it simply, she suddenly had 12 more basic attributes, which could be allocated as she wished.

……

As the light faded, this extraordinary promotion ceremony ended. The light and shadow effects in the air and the magic circle on the floor quickly dissipated, and the [Tree of Life] returned to its dormant state, and even the face of the tree became unrecognizable.

Merry stood up from the ground, examined his inner feelings and panel data, closed his eyes again as if feeling something, and when he opened his eyes again, he looked at Lucas with a complicated expression, as if he was a little surprised.

"I thought... you would make me the defender of some rules or interests... this is pure justice, right?"

At this moment, she turned into a riddle teller, saying words that neither her daughter nor the onlookers around her could understand.

"I don't intend to become a king, or a warlord or gang leader in this social state."

Lucas smiled and shrugged.

"Hiss..." Merry took a breath and touched his head: "It's strange, why do I always subconsciously think that warlords and gang leaders are the best targets for transformation at times like this?"

"Perhaps our civilization has not developed to a very high level?"

Lucas smiled.

"Actually, I had the same idea as you before..."

0074

After the upper-lower relations within the Guanyingshan community were reconciled, the armed forces retained on Green Valley Street seemed very redundant.

Firstly, through the battle with the pirates, everyone knew that Lucas had spread his "magical" gadgets throughout the Crown Eagle Mountain area, and no movement could escape his surveillance.

[Ancient Guardian] is a heavy and powerful combat unit. In battle, all weapons and means of the pirates are ineffective against it. On the contrary, every move of this giant tree man can cause devastating damage to the pirates and any human units.

According to the Underwood family's security chief, it would take continuous fire from a 75mm artillery piece to effectively strike and damage it, and an ordinary bazooka would probably be fine after being hit by a few shots.

Although the ability of the [Tree Spirit] is slightly weaker, it is still compared to the [Ancient Guardian]. How difficult it is to deal with in the mountainous areas, the brains of Green Valley Street saw it through the iPad terminal that Cop brought over by Merri.

They used only dozens of them to hold thousands of pirates in the mountains and forests for a whole night without suffering any casualties and only minor injuries.

The combination of the two magical units constitutes a powerful security force for the entire Crown Eagle Mountain.

In this situation, whether it is daily patrols or formal confrontations and battles - it is still necessary to maintain the minimum security measures. Because the current community environment is like before entering the foggy space, it is generally stable and peaceful, but maintaining an armed force of more than a thousand people is not cost-effective.

After all, capitalists, even if they are hanging on the street lamp, have to consider the gains and losses in this regard.

Moreover, with the coverage of [Steel Thorns] and rattan greenhouses, the agricultural production in Green Valley Street also requires a lot of manpower. This is another reason. Many armed personnel are originally employees of farms and ranches. In addition, there is no fuel supply, and all large agricultural machinery is out of service, so the labor demand has increased sharply compared to the past.

The landlords had no surplus food, and other wealthy families with farms and ranches could not maintain a professional armed security team of hundreds of people, not to mention the Underwood family, who only had a manor for viewing and living.

They are not like the security defense teams in the middle and lower class communities, which are completely the product of "work-for-relief" and are based on the principle of "if free-range farming is likely to cause trouble, it is better to organize them to do something useful." Just like infrastructure projects such as building rivers and dams, the more important significance is to give these people something to do.

And Lucas also has the ability to make investments of this scale for a long time.

But it’s not the same here on Green Valley Street.

After seizing the pirates' floating battleship, they learned intelligence and information at all levels. Guanyingshan had an urgent need to form a fleet to deal with this crisis. In addition to the necessary staff and basic security personnel, Green Valley Street simply divided the armed forces and sent them to the Guanyingshan Navy.

After a month of running-in and training, after becoming initially familiar with the operation and performance of the airship, they gathered the supplies they carried with them, as well as the surrendered pirate captives, including the former pirate commander Jax. The entire fleet hurriedly set off to implement the formulated combat intentions.

……

The magic teleportation array connected to the battleship was set up in a cell in the basement of the county bureau.

It is under the strict control of the county bureau.

Every day, three liaisons will be responsible for carrying and transmitting tokens, traveling between the fleet and Crown Eagle Mountain. In addition to delivering letters and intelligence, everyone now has a 4-grid backpack space. Even though there are only three people, they can carry a medium-sized truck's worth of supplies each time they go back and forth.

In order to gain more time, the fleet set out in a hurry and the supplies they carried were not very comprehensive, so this method was a good way to make adjustments.

Especially after the agricultural products were harvested, the three brought a large amount of fresh vegetables to the fleet.

In addition to official duties, these three people also act as messengers for ordinary soldiers. Any letters sent to Guanying Mountain or written to them by relatives and friends in Guanying Mountain can be delivered through them.

For some reason, Elizabeth Underwood was one of the three people who had the qualifications to teleport and was in charge of the teleportation token. The other two were ordinary residents from lower-middle class communities.

The three men were contacted by the county bureau's clerk and the fleet's intelligence officer. In addition to official documents and private letters, the three men would also transport some property for ordinary soldiers, such as currency or more precious supplies issued by the fleet. Therefore, there would be a list and receipt of items going back and forth between the county bureau's clerk and the fleet's intelligence officer.

Elizbell and her two companions were only responsible for delivering mail between the fleet and the county office, and from the county office to residents' homes. There were also special postmen who ran errands.

After all, there were thousands of people on the fleet. Taking into account the occupation of the Marquisate of Stuart, in addition to the crew, it also carried a large number of infantry, which was the original neighborhood security defense team.

Even if one letter is written a week, with thousands of people averaging out, there are hundreds of emails every day. Even if the county bureau relies on less than twenty part-time workers, they cannot handle it all. So, ordinary letters are delivered to residents' homes or mailboxes by young workers in the community on bicycles every day. If the mail contains remittances or items, a notice will be written and asked to take it to the resident's home and pick it up at the county bureau.

With the current situation of the floating landmass, there is basically no need to worry about spies or intelligence leaks. Even if there are spies, even if they know about Crown Eagle Mountain's military operations against Stuart Territory, they cannot pass it on.

So through these letters, everyone in the community knew about the status of the fleet sailing in the fog.

……

Dear Mary,

It has been eleven days since I left home, and I miss you and the children even more.

Because we need to occupy the Stuart Territory as soon as possible to gain advantageous terrain for the future war with the Pirate King of Vantos, and also to prevent the flames of war from burning on our Crown Eagle Mountain, we will not stop or replenish supplies along the way, and will go straight to the Stuart Territory.

Fortunately, I am a radar soldier. I don't know if it's okay to call it that, but it feels quite bad to wear the monster corpse that will move on its own even after death as a hat on my head, but I can "see" the outside scene through it, which is magical.

I should have "seen" it, but I'm not sure. Every time I put on the corpse of the monster called "Brain Eater", I feel weird. I can't be sure whether the scene in front of me is "seen" or an image created by magic or illusion.

In short, thanks to this, my journey was not monotonous and I could see more scenery than others.

Oh, don't worry, Mr. Lucas has already identified and tested it. The safety of this "Brain Eater" hat is guaranteed. After flushing the Moon Well water into the glass jar under the commander's desk in the cab every day, it is said that there are whale brains in it. It is the brain that allows people wearing the Brain Eater hat to see the outside world. Those brains are also safe as long as we don't use it excessively.

What happens if you overdose on it? I don't know, and I don't want to know. It's a damn question... Maybe you'll really see ghosts?

Sailing in the fog was very monotonous and boring. Most of us were not allowed to go on the deck. I could understand this because if we fell into the fog, we would probably never come back.

I just don't know how deep this fog is. I guess I might starve to death first rather than fall to death... I'm not sure if I will fall to death, or if there is a bottom here. Ah, everything here cannot be explained by common sense.

Frank and I are in the same room now. You don't have to worry too much about him. I'll take care of him. The space on the boat is a bit small. There are four of us in one room. If we want to play cards, we just need to put two stools. The people on the left and right can sit directly on the bed... Ha, you know how narrow it is!

Despite the small space and monotonous journey, we still followed the training we had in the neighborhood and tried to find some door frames, bed boards and any available equipment to exercise, both for fitness and to kill time.

Well, I can’t think of what to write, so I’ll stop here for today.

Love you, Ikaros.

……

Lucas was very self-aware. Apart from some combat skills training, he had never received any tactical training. He could say a few words about formulating strategies, so he did not interfere with the expeditionary operations of the Guanyingshan Navy.

As I said, it is inhumane to use modern thermal weapons to fight primitive people. If they can't win, the people of Guanyingshan should just stop hanging out and stay under his protection...

He was essentially a man who lived a life of mediocrity, and after the Guanyingshan Navy went on the expedition, his life was no different from before.

Develop the economic industry under magical conditions, supervise the construction of the Crown Eagle Mountain National Magic Circle, and continue to improve and DIY the "task system".

At noon that day, he cooked lunch himself in the large kitchen on the living floor of the "Sinkhole Base". He cleaned up the kitchen, took off his white chef's uniform, and went to the nude beach downstairs to call people up to eat.

He cooked by himself, which meant that both secretaries were not at home. If they were here, they would at least help him; if it was not a holiday, the only person who would come with him would be Claire.

The elevator door opened with a ding. Luca

Si walked from the bottom of the hall to the edge, just in time to see Claire's body lying on the beach chair, emitting a jewel-like luster under the magical simulated sunlight.

"Claire, come up to eat"

He didn't come closer, but shouted from a distance.

Claire ignored him, but didn't fall asleep either. Instead, she raised one of her smooth, delicate arms and waved at him.

"What?" Lucas still didn't move.

Claire continued to lie there and wave.

Lucas hesitated for a moment and walked over. "What's the matter with you? It's time for lunch. Don't dawdle here. If you're sleepy, eat first and then sleep..."

Claire turned over lazily, with sunglasses drooping on her nose and a dazed look in her eyes. She didn't care at all about exposing her naked body to Lucas's eyes, and held a bottle of sunscreen from a parallel universe with two fingers.

"Please put some more sunscreen on me. It's so comfortable here. I'm about to fall asleep."

"Uh……"

Lucas lowered his eyes, remaining polite and not looking at her directly.

"It's not very convenient. Please put on your clothes and go upstairs to eat."

"Am I ugly? You don't even look at me."

"That's not the case, but it's polite... I'm Amy's boyfriend now."

"Pfft," Claire laughed, her voice full of laziness and scrutiny, or perhaps teasing: "I just asked you to help apply some oil, and Amy isn't here, what are you afraid of?"

"It's not fear, it's polite..."

"I don't mind. Just rub some oil on me and I'll put on my clothes and go upstairs with you to eat."

Lucas wasn't fooled.

"You've already gone upstairs to eat, why are you still applying oil? Okay, stop it, hurry up, I'm hungry."

"No," Claire started to act like a little girl, turning over to lie on her side to better show her waist and hips, and raised the sunscreen bottle with two fingers, "If you apply the sunscreen on me, I will get dressed and go upstairs with you to eat."

Lucas had a headache. He was not afraid of throwing tantrums and fighting, but he was not willing to give in to this kind of spoiled and cheating behavior.

I wanted to reason with her, but as soon as I raised my eyes, I quickly put them down.

Thanks to Amy's diligence in gaining experience, he can now remain calm.

"Claire, what do you want?"

“Apply sunscreen”

The woman said, pouting like a young girl.

Her legs were emitting pearl-like luster... no, her whole body was emitting this delicate luster. Her two thighs were naturally pressed together, neither open in a bold and seductive manner, nor deliberately covered up, but just naturally pressed together up and down.

Despite this, Lucas felt his mouth dry when he caught a glimpse of the blurry white triangle area out of the corner of his eye.
