The Dragon Girl would never like the Lord.

This can be considered killing two birds with one stone!

Ron himself, along with the women, sat in the second carriage, drawing back the curtains to keep a close watch on the carriage ahead, ready to take immediate action should it collapse.

Because the swamp is very complex, sometimes a single carriage can pass through because of the root system of weeds underground. However, if too many carriages pass through, the area behind may collapse, causing the carriage to get stuck.

Therefore, as soon as the first carriage shows even the slightest abnormality, action must be taken.

Perhaps because we had just entered the swamp, the mud here was quite thick, and the weeds grew up to the chest height of an adult man, with roots covering the entire muddy ground like a giant net, keeping the ground stable.

Sitting in the carriage was fine, but the serfs walking behind them were in for a rough time. The water was a bit cold in the autumn, and their shoes, socks, and trousers were soaked as they walked through the muddy water and grass.

Moreover, the grass, which is half a person tall, has some very sharp leaves, and some even have thorns. If you are not careful, you will get scratched.

Although the injury wasn't too serious, the cut was incredibly itchy.

Despite the muddy and thorny road, none of these serfs complained, and none of them thought of giving up.

Because they knew that as long as they followed the lord and the man in front of him, they would have food to eat.

It's okay to be a little tough and tired now; everything will be alright once we reach our territory.

"Master, the carriage ahead is stuck..."

Fiona, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation ahead, couldn't help but look at the man beside her when she saw the car wheel get stuck.

“Lucia pumped out the water from the swamp in front, and Ovelle used the mud from the side to fill it in, creating a road that the carriage could pass through.”

Ron had already noticed that the carriage was stuck and immediately ordered the dragon women to start moving.

"Yes, sir!"

Ron had already spoken with them, so the two dragons already knew what to do.

After getting off the carriage, Lucia immediately reached out and used her ability on the small puddle under the carriage. Instantly, the turbid water in the swamp seemed to be pulled by something, and little by little, it floated from the ground into the air.

Then it fell into a larger puddle in the distance.

After the water was drained, O'Ville reached out and grabbed at the water in front of her.

Instantly, the surrounding brownish-black silt converged towards the bottom of the carriage. After the silt filled the small pit, O'Ville clenched her fist tightly.

boom--

At that moment, the surrounding ground trembled, and the thin, bean curd-like mud gathered together, gradually solidifying into hard black soil.

The carriage, which had been stuck deep in the mud, suddenly stood firmly on solid ground.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned.

"She, they were so amazing..."

Fiona always thought that her master bought the three dragon girls to please her and to do lewd things every day.

In her mind, no matter how strong the sub-dragons were, they were only comparable to the Holy Knights.

Her ability to manipulate water and control the soil truly surprised her.

"As expected, those who can be by the Lord's side are not simple beings."

As if she had seen through something, Lilith felt even more that the man beside her had good taste.

They recognized their own extraordinary nature at a glance and chose a subhuman race with special abilities.

The knights standing nearby stared in astonishment. They had initially thought these female dragons were just pretty faces, but they hadn't expected that each of them possessed extraordinary skills.

"Now you know why I was so sure the wheat field could be cleared within three days, right?"

Ron looked at his maid with a smug expression. She couldn't avoid this trap anymore and had no choice but to jump in.

"You bastard master, you've been keeping this from the maid all along, just to trick her."

At that moment, Fiona suddenly realized what she would have to do after the wheat field was cleared, and her cheeks burned.

Damn Ron, why didn't you say so earlier that the dragon girl possessed this ability?

Waiting for me in a place like this...

Oh no, I'm about to have to wear that weird maid outfit to my master's room to eat...

Just thinking about it made Fiona's delicate body tremble slightly, and the inside of her mouth involuntarily tightened gently, as if she was worried about what was about to happen...

"I didn't hide it from you, you just didn't ask."

Seeing his maid's embarrassed expression, Ron felt incredibly pleased.

"So, you're all set to come to my room in a couple of days wearing a special maid outfit and have a meal?"

It's hard to imagine what Fiona's expression, posture, and mood will be when she enters her room.

That will be an absolutely wonderful night.

"The wheat field hasn't even been cultivated yet, and the owner is already so impatient!"

Fiona was actually quite excited to know that she could expand her territory within three days, because it meant that the chances of the wheat ripening had increased significantly.

With careful watering, the wheat might actually ripen before the harsh winter arrives.

However, I was also very uneasy and found it hard to accept that I would wear that maid outfit to eat in my master's room.

Of course, if she were given the choice between success and failure, Fiona would choose success without hesitation...

If she could choose, she would choose success, just like before the wheat ripens in the dead of winter.

Even though she would be completely taken advantage of by the man in front of her after she succeeded, she was willing to accept it.

Because in her heart, nothing was more important than Ron...

Whenever the journey continued and the carriage encountered mud or got stuck, O'Ville and Lucia would come to the rescue.

But gradually, Lucia began to give up. After she finished controlling the situation, she would collapse in the carriage, like a soulless shell, weak and powerless.

"Lucia can't go on, controlling the water is so tiring~"

Lucia felt that manipulating the water was far more tiring than releasing it, which only took a moment and gave the dragon an extraordinary experience.

Clearly, she prefers freedom to control.

"We're almost there, just a short distance left. We can come a few more times at most."

It was already noon, but Ron did not stop the convoy, because there were only seven or eight kilometers left to go, and they would soon reach the real pioneering grounds.

Perhaps we should persevere a little longer, wait until we reach the settlement, then start cooking and begin researching territory development.

"My lord, Lucia really can't go on anymore, she's so tired~"

Lucia is like this; she feels uncomfortable all over as soon as she moves, and it's not as comfortable as lying down.

"If you don't go out to pump water, the amount of barbecue will be reduced by half."

Ron used his trump card, cutting into Lucia's favorite food.

I believe she will cheer up again just to eat barbecue.

"My lord, please! Lucia loves meat the most, please don't deprive her of meat!"

Lucia was craving meat, but she was torn between continuing to work.

Because she's so clueless, she doesn't really grasp the concept of food being reduced by half, and since she'll be eating the grilled meat a little while later, she doesn't have a direct sense of how much food has been reduced.

"Well then, if you move, I'll reward you with a roasted lamb leg."

Seeing that Lucia was somewhat interested, Ron changed his approach and had someone bring over a fragrant roasted leg of lamb, which he then waved in front of Lucia.

"Go down and pump the water, and this leg of lamb is yours."

Faced with the visible roasted meat, Lucia couldn't resist the temptation. Her mouth watered uncontrollably, and she wanted to pounce on it and take a bite.

She had no idea how much a 50% reduction would be; all she knew was that she had a roasted lamb leg right in front of her.

"Lucia, Lucia will go right away, Lord, please wait for me..."

Lucia immediately became full of energy. She got out of the car, quickly drained the water, got back in, picked up a leg of lamb, and began to feast.

That's just how Lucia is; she'll probably do anything as long as there's food.

Through this incident, Ron also figured out the water dragon girl's personality. Next time he needed her help, all he had to do was prepare the roasted meat beforehand...

If there's barbecue to eat, I bet she'd even be willing to eat raw meat...

Chapter 99: Opening Up New Land! O'Ville's Tail Being Pinched! Something's Wrong!

Time flows like water, always slipping away unnoticed.

Of course, it didn't flow that fast; it just got to the afternoon.

The pioneering team started in the morning and moved forward without stopping until they finally arrived at the pioneering site.

It was a small hill, with only a small section exposed, not covered by swamp, surrounded by waist-high weeds and bottomless silt.

Such a small piece of land is too cramped to even build a mud-brick house; it's completely unsuitable for expanding territory.

Of course, this applies to ordinary nobles, who have no way to expand their influence, but Ron is the only exception.

Because he has O'Ville and Lucia, with them by his side, he can perfectly carve out territory in the swamp.

"Master, this hill is too small."
