(Start to work hard, this is the first update. *.**/*)
It¡¯s time to enter November.
The New Year in this plane is a few days later than in the original plane, because their calendars in November and December are calculated based on 31 days and 32 days. The last day of December is the legendary [Advent of the Holy Son] in this plane. That day is also when the power of the Holy Light comes to this plane. But now the New Year is just a formality. The resource-constrained southern rear has no way to organize a large-scale New Year celebration. As for those powerful mages, they don¡¯t care about the passage of time at all, except for the arcane magic held once every ten years. Festival, they have no other festivals at all.
Abandoned capital, Governor's Mansion.
After one or two months of construction, with large-scale capital injection, the entire abandoned town has completely changed its appearance!
Outside the town is a stretch of cultivated land. Winter wheat has been sown. Villages with hundreds of households are scattered around. Roosters crow, dogs bark, and smoke is faint. In just a few months, this once desolate land has become a deserted place. The land is already full of life. Now the population in the entire abandoned capital has reached more than 50,000, and the population migration process has slowed down. I am afraid that the next batch of population migration will have to wait until the grain harvest next year.
It is no longer suitable to relocate people here.
Because the food in the territory can only feed so many people at most, maybe we can wait until the winter wheat harvest next year to determine how many people can be accommodated.
It must be mentioned that the population of this plane has a rigid quota, and there is almost no upper limit on the number of people it can accept. As long as you can feed it, the rear can bring you as many refugees as you want, because the rear relies on arcane magic. There are too many people who can barely survive on food rations. However, no matter what the harvest of your territory is, you must accept a population of more than 5,000. Even if the territory is only a small town, you cannot refuse, otherwise you will be deprived of your title!
In fact, the huge number of refugees living on relief food in the rear has also brought huge pressure to the entire southern rear!
Especially after the Abyss Demon sneak attacked the rear food base.
Abandoned cities, mines.
For the aborigines in this plane, this place is a strictly controlled military restricted area, because everyone knows that it is relying on this obsidian mine that the waste city can be built into a city second only to Zen in such a short period of time. The city of Daben. //*.*//It is precisely because of this mine that Lord Murphy, the lord of the abandoned city, was favored by Her Royal Highness Queen Isabella. His current status has become very popular!
The area around the mine was heavily guarded, and a regular heavy infantry force was stationed in just a small town in front of the mine.
After more than two months of construction, the underground city in the mine has begun to take shape. The most basic living areas, trade areas, and military areas have been dug out by the gray dwarves. Some gray dwarves are experts in digging holes, and they have The title of the innate [Rock Buster]! However, this underground city is not yet complete at this stage, because the truly complete version of the underground city also has a huge arcane system, which is the underground magic pattern defense system!
This is a huge magic circle. When completed, it will completely integrate the power of the city and the entire mountain. At that time, neither the high-level magic [earthquake and mountain shaking] nor the real sudden earthquake disaster can shake this place. An underground city! Otherwise, how could the dwarves live in underground cities for thousands of years? According to the number of earthquakes that occur once in a hundred years, their city has long been destroyed by some earthquake disasters! Even when the dwarves were at their most powerful, they built their city on an active volcano in order to use the lava from the volcano for weapon forging!
At that time, the dwarves were so powerful that they even united with the tribe to suppress the active volcano that was about to erupt for thousands of years!
The underground city is divided into three floors, surrounded by a ring-shaped building complex, with the temple area in the center, which has been dug into an open square with a radius of three kilometers, and the interior of the original mine has been almost opened. Now, coupled with thousands of gray dwarves and a huge number of kobold workers, the first underground layer has almost been completely opened up to create a huge hollow area. All the buildings in the underground city are dug out of the walls. , the stone in the mine is solid, and the excavated rooms can be moved in directly after a short rest.
Starting from the second floor is a dedicated forging area.
Murphy plans to build it into a large arsenal, impose strict military controls on the outside world, and set up a military isolation zone specifically for the research and forging of weapons.
At present, Murphy has secretly sent out some gray dwarves who are loyal enough.Believers, let them learn the higher-level forging skills of this plane. With the innate talents of the dwarves, Murphy believes that it will not be long before a large number of weapon masters appear in the territory! As for the third level of the underground city, it is the territory of Queen Medusa.
This was an agreement between Murphy and her. She would arrange the space on that floor by herself. The space below the second floor was not very suitable for ordinary people to live because it was too deep underground.
Perhaps it was Murphy¡¯s bad taste, he named this newly established underground city - [Ironforge]!
All right.
In fact, he has the idea of ????drawing out the underground lava and turning this place into the largest weapons manufacturing base in this plane! But for now, even if he has a way to bring out the underground faces under the mountains, he can't suppress them within the controllable range. For now, it is only limited to a basic blueprint! The extension of the mineral vein is a large mountain range that winds for thousands of kilometers, which means that the city has enough room for expansion. As long as Murphy has enough manpower, he can open a series of underground tunnels connecting the entire mountain range!
Owned buildings: Governing Hall, Barracks, Forge (Completeness), Moon and Hunting Temple, Flame and Forging Temple (Completion).
The current residents of the underground city are mainly gray dwarves summoned by Murphy, and there are also some elite spies and scouts from Athens. In addition, Murphy has quietly sent out some scholars, and even the gray robe mage Gan Some of Daofu's disciples were also secretly sent to the Arcane Academy in this plane by Murphy through the relationship of Her Royal Highness Queen Isabella.
Since starting to build the underground city, Murphy has planned to gradually arrange manpower to penetrate this plane.
certainly.
At present, his main purpose is to collect and sort out the progress of civilization in this plane, and to learn all aspects of advanced technology in this plane. He didn't send many men, and they were very concealed. This plan might take a long time, but it was completely worth it for Murphy.
Because he has now sent the earliest "Advanced Arcane Magic Tutorial" back to the Kingdom of Athens.
The Arcane Academy in the city of Athens now has introductory tutorials for these five arcane factions: protection, conjuration, prophecy, evocation, and transformation. The magic apprentices within can now also take advanced arcane elective courses based on their own abilities. The course elective courses taken in these major factions will determine whether their future is a combat mage or an academic researcher.
At the same time, some crops from this plane were also sent back to the Kingdom of Athens by Murphy. Experimental planting of rice is in progress, and the half-elf druids are experimenting with planting changes after species cross planes. If the experiment of planting rice and other crops can be successful, then the plane where the Kingdom of Athens is located will undergo huge agricultural changes, which will at least span thousands of years of civilization and reach the level of farming in the Song and Ming Dynasties in the previous life.
Penetration.
This is a slow process, and Murphy¡¯s plot will certainly not be limited to this.
The executive office.
The burly body of the God of War Priest strode into the room. He bowed slightly towards Murphy, who was immersed in processing documents, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Governor, those little mice running in are getting more and more unruly, you Let¡¯s see if we can teach them a lesson and make them restrain themselves?¡±
"Little mouse?" Murphy raised his head from the pair of documents, rubbed his eyebrows, and asked, "Are they those vampire immortals?"
The chief priest of the God of War nodded.
There are a lot of affairs in the territory during this period. Since the manpower is not very sufficient, many things need to be handled by Murphy on his own. If the priest does not mention it, he almost forgets about the few vampire immortals that sneaked in to spy.
¡°What have they done recently?¡± Murphy asked, frowning slightly.
The Chief Priest of the God of War took out a list and said slowly: "They frequently appear near the mines and seem to be aware of the underground city we have built. However, the defense force there has been strengthened by me. They have no way to sneak in yet. .¡±
"What a troublesome little mouse!" Murphy said in a deep voice with a trace of anger on his face.??"Then let them all disappear."
"By the way, let's deal with those with bad intentions! I don't have that much time to keep an eye on them now!"
Hearing this, the chief priest of the God of War showed a cruel smile, nodded, bowed and retreated. For him, these little mice hiding in the corner should have been cleaned out long ago!
