In the command center, the most central and vital place in Arcadia, where all the important decisions are made, a small celebration was taking place.
"Let's toast, to Richard!" Adriel raised her voice and downed the bottle of liquor in his hand.
"By Richard!" The rest drank enthusiastically as well, as if they were at a party before the apocalypse.
If the soldiers and citizens saw the powerful generals behaving like this, surely their mouths would open wide.
The reason they were celebrating is because of an event that is not superfluous at all, in fact, it is an extremely important event for all of Arcadia as a whole.
Richard has officially reached Rank 4, evolving and ascending to an even greater height!
And the evolution that he underwent is not just any evolution, it is a red rank evolution, [Iron Giant Human].
He is not a golden evolution, but with effort and dedication, he will likely obtain a golden evolution when he reaches rank 5.
He grew 15 centimeters, reaching 2.2 meters in height, his body was even larger than before, his skin went from being dark brown to grayish-brown, his entire body has become even harder than steel, he could literally crush a dozen tanks with a single hit.
Not only that, he became capable of manipulating something called life force, which is the energy that warriors use, you will not be considered a full-fledged warrior until you can exert that energy.
At the moment, Adriel was only able to feel that energy, but not manipulate it, although he is an all-rounder, he is more focused on the magical side.
"Well, I hope this will motivate you, at the end of the test, I want you all to be in rank 4", Adriel smiled and cheered his teammates and friends, but a second later, his expression turned serious, he sat down in his chair and went into his boss mode, "Now, let's start the meeting."
The people who were partying a second ago were nowhere to be seen, the alcohol in their hands disappeared in an instant and their expressions immediately tensed, at their level, normal alcohol could not do anything to them, at least until the spirit spirit that the dwarves are making ...
Anyway, it's time to get serious, Adriel is very nice most of the time, but they know better not to joke when he gets serious.
"How's the crops going?" Adriel asked Selena, who was standing behind Isabela in her usual maid outfit.
Surprisingly, the girl has enormous knowledge about agriculture, in addition, her talent, [Touch of Jesus], works wonders with the fields, it can transform normal water into super-nutritious water with scandalous effects.
That is why he appointed the girl as responsible for the crops, but insisted on remaining a maid at the same time.
At first, the farmers complain, but a small display of their skill and no further criticism was heard, he silenced those guys with sheer skill.
"At the moment we have 3 main crops, rice, potatoes and tomatoes, 40% is rice, 30% potatoes and 30% tomatoes, we have observed that the food collected contains more and more essence, the plants also get bigger over time "Selena responded with due respect, but she was far from the devotion and fanaticism with which she addresses Isabela.
"Mnnn, maybe we will really have spiritual food in the future", Adriel thought with satisfaction, he did not waste time and went to the next point, he looked at the two scientists who have been forced to crawl out of their laboratory and he question, "Inform me of all the traps we have installed, as well as the progress of your research "
Fiona rubbed her disheveled hair and replied drowsily, "The research is going well, soon we will be able to apply the essence technology to all the devices, as for the cheating, sorry, I can't tell you"
"... Why?", Adriel narrowed his eyes.
"Because I don't even know all the traps out there, I know all the main ones, but I gave those guys the freedom to be creative, they've installed all kinds of traps on their own, one guy with the transmutation ability even hid pools of lava in various places along the way, "Fiona shrugged, looking completely unconcerned, like it wasn't her problem.
"I want a full report of all the traps in an hour," Adriel sighed, this girl doesn't have any common sense, she's brilliant, but just talking to her is a headache.
Mateo covered her daughter's mouth before he could continue and dragged her out of the room.
Adriel looked at Carl, who was red with embarrassment, "Are you supposed to be the normal or the weirdo in your family?"
"I don't know, I don't know anything anymore," sighed the young man with resignation.
The meeting continues for another hour, various important issues were discussed, various things were decided, and many not-so-official discussions took place, until Adriel let everyone go.
Natalia practically dragged Richard out and ran towards her house, she seemed eager to try the new body of the warrior, meanwhile, they did not realize that a certain healing girl was following them from behind ...
Adriel went directly to his room, Isabela was taking a bath, so nighttime activities would have to wait awhile.
But when he opened the bedroom door, he couldn't believe what he saw.
An old man was sitting in his room, eating what was supposed to be a dinner for two.
