Chapter 541: Rebuilding The Fortress City
“What are you doing?” Fawkes inquired as he discreetly yawned while covering his mouth with his hand. His eyes were clouded with unmistakable weariness.

The fortress city had just been liberated from the grasp of the elven army. He had a lot of work to do as the city lord. Furthermore, his wife had been resurrected from the dead. He did not get much sleep because he and his wife had been intimate for an extended period.

He was drifting off in his office that morning, staring at the mountains of paperwork on his desk. Finally, a soldier informed him that Watson had a question for him. He skipped breakfast and dashed toward the golden river. Watson was at the riverbank and studied the people on both sides of the river. He had not said anything, so it was not proper for him to inquire.

After standing on the riverbank for half an hour, his hands and feet felt numb. He could not help but inquire.

“Lord Fawkes, can you tell me how you feel about the current fortress city?”

Watson did not explicitly respond to his inquiry. He turned around with his hands behind his back and smiled.

‘How do I feel?”

After a brief moment of startled silence, Fawkes said, “The current fortress city is more than ten times stronger than before. I am feeling pretty wonderful.”

He stared in the direction of the golden river as he spoke. A hundred massive, pitch-black submarines were parked there. Those submarines played an important part in the combat against the elven army the previous day. Those submarines had already become a component of the fortress city. Many sea folks had arrived out of nowhere, their fish tails swinging. They were holding enormous boxes. Some of the crates held food, while others held clothing and weaponry.

Fawkes lauded Watson’s vision of the Golden River. He brought his family to the riverside after his wife was resurrected to get water for them to drink and have a relaxing bath. He possessed the strength of a gold-tier elite and also a tremendous protective shield similar to gold-tier armor.

He also visited Watson’s idol at the newly built church in the fortress city. He had expressed his trust toward Watson and received a wonderful gift in return. He was formerly a warrior cultivator. He possessed diamond-tier knowledge as a warrior, but he also had the capacity to practice magic. He learned to be a dual cultivator with a warrior’s and mage’s abilities.

In the fortress city, there were many people like him. He would be able to advance to gold-tier as long as he drank the water from the golden river. At the time, the fortress city’s population was essentially greater than platinum-tier. He would be able to get superior knowledge as long as he continued to believe in Watson.

Everyone would advance to platinum-tier.

That was something the Holy Dragon Kingdom, which had boasted less than ten platinum-tier elites, could not consider. However, given Watson’s ability to generate things like the golden river and even resurrect the dead, it was not surprising that he could increase a person’s strength to platinum-tier.

“Is that it?” Watson persisted in his question as if he was not happy with Fawkes’ response.

“Is there anything else?”

Fawkes had a puzzled expression on his face. “There is one other thing. I have not acknowledged you adequately, Your Highness. Don’t worry. We will never forget what you did for the city. If you desire something, just say the word, and I will do my utmost to fulfill your request. It is quite rare to come across someone like you who is exceptional in skills, wisdom, and kindness, all at the same time. My admiration for you is like the golden river, which flows indefinitely.”
