Emperor of Arcane

The main purpose of Matthew leading the army to Sewenden was to "fish".

He understood the whole story of "the death of the first great arcanist" in his previous life.

Al Rasco is certainly dangerous.

The Cole Elf Kingdom hiding behind must also have sent quite a lot of manpower.

However, the fundamental reason for the fall of the great arcanist Kenoman was still due to the relationship between traitors.

As for who the traitors were and whether they would attack the Gulf leaders, Matthew didn't care too much.

As long as a fish dares to bite the hook, he will never run away.

Matthew, who has been promoted to Grand Arcanist, has almost absolute authority and status in the Netheril Empire.

Not to mention that he was so "cooperative" in dealing with some rebellious people, no one dared to say anything.

The reason why Matthew did this was naturally not just to clean up the Netheril Empire.

Matthew has regarded many of the public resources and wealth of the Netheril Empire as his own.

Rather than letting these borers waste it, it is better to take it in your own hands and add more help to the development and development of the Gulf Territory.

The Netheril Empire is destined to be destroyed, so Matthew naturally wants to accept its legacy to the maximum extent possible, while also promoting his own name and greatly increasing his influence.

Especially the latter is related to plans and plans for becoming a god in the future.

The Grand Arcanist of Kennoman, who had not reacted much to this, handed over the information about the Ellasco plane to Matthew, and said with a somewhat serious expression:

"The situation in the plane of El Lasco is a bit strange. Those guys are surrounding but not attacking. They are just creating pressure and obviously setting up traps."

When Matthew heard this, he immediately understood that the great arcanist Kenoman knew everything.

However, it is estimated that even the great arcanist did not expect that the Cole Elf's "ambition" was so great.

As for the reason, Matthew can guess one or two.

In the previous life, because there was no Gulf Territory, the Elf Kingdom of Cole sent an army of orcs to cause trouble.

That destroyed half of the Netheril Empire, and countless people died.

If it had been before, Matthew would naturally suspect that this was something the Cole Elf Kingdom did to weaken the Netheril Empire.

But since he learned about souls, gods, and rituals, Matthew vaguely understood the meaning behind each other's actions.

Various disasters and invasions may be held in order to hold various ceremonies.

Use this to restore the power of the elven gods!

Matthew then thought that the Netheril Empire also had the support of gods, so why didn't it make a big fuss?

He recalled the Mother Earth and the Goddess of Magic, and deep thoughts flashed in his eyes.

Matthew also didn't know much about the elven gods behind the Cole Elf Kingdom, but he had vague information from the players.

A large number of elven gods also died after the destruction of the Netheril Empire.

This also led to the destruction of the Elven Kingdom of Kor in the future.

Being able to cause the death of large-scale gods, the power and personality behind it made Matthew feel deeply fearful.

What happened behind this?

What is their relationship with the many gods who will fall into madness in the future?

In the past 20 years, how many secrets behind the plot have been hidden?

Matthew smiled slightly under the gaze of the great arcanist of Kennoman, and said in a calm and confident tone:

"No matter what happens, don't give those guys a chance to cause trouble."

"If anything happens, we in the Gulf Territory can handle it ourselves."

The Grand Arcanist Kenoman thought that Matthew refused the input of other territorial personnel and instead accepted the transportation of numerous supplies. He nodded thoughtfully and said very firmly:

"No problem, I will control the situation."

Matthew carefully took stock of the memories in his mind, recalling the failure of the El Lasco plane.

The death of the Grand Arcanist of Kennoman was only the final result.

The Netherese Empire completely lost control of the Ellasco plane, and the space passage was closed.

This was the reason why the great arcanist had nowhere to escape and was threatened by the Elf Kingdom of Cole. In the end, he could only die in frustration.

This is the real insidious killing move.

Because of this, Matthew did not want other forces to intervene and decided to let the Gulf Territory take full responsibility.

Not only can you get a large amount of supplies, but you can also easily control the power of the Netheril Empire in the entire Ellasco plane.

At the same time, Matthew and Bay Leader can avoid the threat of being stabbed in the back and fight any enemy in the way they are best at.

As long as there are no pig teammates, Matthew is not afraid to fight anyone.

However, after carefully reading the basic information about the plane of El Lasco, Matthew couldn't help but widen his eyes and couldn't help but complain:

"What kind of plane world is this? A plane with historical records, is it so strong?"

After hearing this, the Grand Arcanist of Kennoman couldn't help laughing and said jokingly:

"Otherwise? Unless they are particularly famous, the demiplane that has been completely conquered has already become part of the major families and forces."

"Plans that have not been resolved for a long time, or even where only some contracts can be signed, are difficult to resolve, or the rewards are lower than those of doing it."

Nodding helplessly, Matthew copied the information on the Ellasco plane and highlighted the information on several demigods.

That's right, there are actually several demigods in just one demiplane.

Moreover, these demigods are not the ancient evil beings that Matthew has encountered before, which are sealed or have insufficient strength.

Rather, they are true demigods who have survived and been around for hundreds of thousands of years and are still active.

If nothing else goes wrong, the Gulf Territory will definitely encounter these demigod-level existences this time.

In addition to these demigods, their affiliated forces and other forces should not be underestimated.

Compared with many kingdoms and organizations in the northern continent that have been peaceful for a long time, they have only recently become turbulent.

The organizations or forces in the Ellasco plane all want to drive away the Netheril Empire as soon as possible, regain their previous territories, or use this to ensure safety.

According to the previous battle news, although the demigod-level existence did not take action, most of the forces took action together and almost surrounded the territory occupied by the Netheril Empire.

There are also some forces that have not taken action. They were originally allies of the Netheril Empire, but now their attitude is somewhat ambiguous.

This looks like a big trap, and it's ready to go.

However, after carefully checking the information, Matthew felt relieved for the time being.

The reason is simple. The situation in the Ellasco plane is not particularly urgent, and the great arcanist of Kenoman is also assured that Matthew will go there.

The most fundamental reason is that there is a floating city controlled by the Netheril Empire floating in the plane of Ellasco.

That’s right, it’s a floating city!

Moreover, there is still an "empty city" that is not controlled by any great arcanist.

It is the first floating city in the entire Netheril Empire, the one created by the great arcanist Iolum.

It is also the only floating city currently without a permanent controller.

Its control belongs to the Grand Arcanist Éolum and also to the Council of Thevendon.

Because of its existence, even if all forces desperately want to drive Netheril out of the Ellasco plane, it is difficult to completely do so.

The main fighting force of the Netheril Empire is not located in the underground city-states.

But in the sky!

The city of Seventon.

A large number of spies, ears and eyes watched Matthew leave with the Gulf Leader army.

They will go to the Corellado Mountains 300 kilometers away and take over the dimensional passage there.

At the same time, huge amounts of various materials are continuously being sent here from various places.

Before the war started, no one dared to do anything with these supplies.

Otherwise, the Sevendon Arcanists with the Enforcer Legion will definitely land on their heads.

The Corellado Mountains are deserted.

There are only sporadic patches of vegetation on the vast expanse of wasteland.

The howling wind blew, bringing up waves of swirling smoke and dust.

The rough gravel hit the soldiers' faces without causing them any discomfort.

There was only pity and emotion in everyone's eyes.

After leaving the Gulf Territory, the soldiers who had become accustomed to developing everywhere, never having anyone idle, and planting trees and fruits everywhere, finally woke up from the dream of being in the Gulf Territory.

The world outside is still the same as they remember it.

After leaving the city, dilapidation and desolation became the main theme.

People's lives are still difficult, and the pressure on the people is also great.

Various dangers still exist in the wilderness and mountains everywhere.

This puzzled them and made them feel that everything was taken for granted.

Compared with the rapid development of the Gulf Territory, the people who have not received resource investment are the most miserable people who are exploited.

The improvement of their living standards is often the slowest and latest in any world.

Even with such a contrasting picture, they were very clear.

The people here are already among the few with the highest living standards in the entire northern continent.

Within the control of other kingdoms, organizations or territories.

Most people are struggling with food and clothing, and some are even hovering on the line of life and death.

The centripetal force and pride in the territory boosted everyone's morale and inspired everyone's respect and love for the lord.

If it weren't for the Lord and the Gulf Territory, everyone's life would be no different from the people in front of them.

Matthew had actually already realized this unexpected surprise.

There is no way, other places are too bad.

Not to mention the unprecedented system brought out by the Gulf Territory, even if the more controllable system from the previous life is brought in, it can also cause a dimensionality reduction blow to other forces and territories.

However, since Matthew already knows what is best, he would rather spend more effort, time and energy to complete this matter.

After all, Matthew is really not sure that he can survive the catastrophe in the entire material plane in the future.

Under such circumstances, Matthew sincerely hopes that he can leave more behind and show everyone a better future.

Perhaps other territories and forces will never be able to do what the Gulf Territory does.

However, once everyone sees the light, they will hate the eternal darkness for no reason.

Even just moving towards this goal can make the lives of more people in the world better.

This is something Matthew hopes to stay.

Of course, the development of the Gulf Territory was smoother than he expected, which also gave him more "ambitions."

Matthew smiled and completed the handover with the management staff here, and quickly arranged for a comprehensive transformation and upgrade of this small and inconspicuous city.

So, under the gaze of many pairs of eyes.

The various golem machines in the Gulf Territory began to move with a rumble.

The small city that was originally just used to guard the space passage was soon transformed into a heavily fortified and towering fortress under the construction of the Gulf Territory Engineering Corps.

The entire construction process took no more than three days.

In fact, the reason why everyone knows this time is because the Gulf leader took the initiative to reveal it.

From the moment the city wall was erected, everyone had lost their "observation" of the Gulf Territory.

Looking at the various defense facilities, densely packed residences and camps.

Many people who know about military and construction felt unspeakably shocked by the rapid actions of the Gulf Territory.

They never expected that the construction speed of the Gulf Territory could be so fast.

"Ten years for a town, a century for a city, and a millennium for a city-state. This is the normal speed."

"What you said is using human power, while the Gulf Territory uses magic and golem machinery. These are two completely different concepts."

"My dear, the Gulf Territory has such strong construction capabilities, no wonder they can build walls and fortresses everywhere."

"The war has not yet started. The Gulf Territory will be in an invincible position first. Only they can take the initiative to attack each other. We can only wait for them to attack."

"Indeed, just like the Scarlet Castle that is currently besieged by the orc army, with the help of the Gulf Territory to strengthen and build it, it is still very stable even if it faces an army of more than 600,000 orcs."

"What does this mean? Haven't you learned about the feats of the Gulf Territory in the Black Mud Swamp?"

"Millions of kilometers of city walls were erected almost overnight, blocking millions of murlocs and deep-sea monsters."

"Arcanist Matthew went to the Ellasco plane and should be able to solve the trouble there."

"That's not certain. After all, Grand Arcanist Matthew only brought more than 30,000 people, and the number is too small."

"The plane of El Lasco is a very large demi-plane, and its explored area is no smaller than the Northern Continent and the Brave Continent combined."

"That's true. After all, the empire's 300,000 standing soldiers are stationed there, which is more than several major legions."

"I hope Archarcanist Matthew can stabilize the plane of El Lasco and hold on until my brother rotates the guard duty."

"If ArchArcanist Matthew and the Gulf Army can't do it, no one can do it..."

"..."

Thanks to the recent publicity campaign of the Gulf Territory, many people and nobles have great trust in Matthew and the Gulf Territory.

After all, with just a simple comparison, anyone with a discerning eye can see obvious differences.

Seeing that Matthew and the Gulf Leader army finally stepped into the trap, the forces that had been waiting for a long time finally started to take action.

After years of continuous reinforcement, the space channel connecting the material plane to the Ellasco plane is wide and stable.

Coupled with the traction array that had been arranged long ago, Matthew and the 25,000 Gulf Territory soldiers successfully passed through the space channel.

The administrators of the floating city, who had already received the news, welcomed Matthew's arrival at the teleportation square.

Matthew made a simple handover with them, and then began to lead the accompanying arcane masters to the control center of the floating city.

There, he has the authority to control the entire huge floating city.

However, Matthew had just arrived in the Floating City, and the Cole Elf Kingdom and all the forces that had been prepared for it immediately arranged a welcome surprise for him.

"Roar……!"

It was like substantial pressure suddenly coming from high in the sky.

The azure blue lightning with a sharp explosion struck ferociously on the huge protective canopy.

Bang!

The protective canopy kept shaking, spreading ripples around it.

The terrible destructive power made the residents and soldiers in the floating city feel a lot of pressure due to the suppression of Longwei.

The one who dared to attack the floating city was a huge blue dragon that was spitting out deadly lightning.

No!

It’s not just this one!

The dark clouds in the distance surged, and two more blue dragons over ten meters in size rushed over quickly.

They roared in unison and roared continuously. They also opened their mouths and spit out lightning, which hit the protective sky of the floating city hard.

The defensive power of the protective canopy was quite astonishing. After just a series of ripples, it quickly returned to calm.

After a period of turmoil in the floating city, the soldiers and managers who had become accustomed to blue dragon attacks gradually relaxed.

They stared at the calm-looking Matthew and the alert Gulf Territory soldiers in surprise, and did not see any fear on their faces.

Such a reaction really relaxed their spirits a lot.

After all, although they are also afraid, they hope that the arriving reinforcements will be more powerful.

Matthew looked away from the raging blue dragon above, a glint of interest flashed in his eyes, and he muttered silently in his heart:

"Kalegos? An old acquaintance... no... an old acquaintance with dragons!"

That's right, one of the two blue dragons that appear later.

Surprisingly, it was the legendary blue dragon that the Gulf Territory encountered in the Desert of Death - Kalecgos!

Kalecgos, who had been beaten badly by Fang before, had escaped into the plane of Ellasco and called two legendary blue dragons that were more powerful than him.

As for the other two legendary blue dragons, Matthew is also very familiar with them.

These two former world mini-bosses have aroused the interest and pursuit of many players.

Kalecgosa and Kalecgod!

He is nicknamed the second fool of the Ka family by players.

These two guys are very powerful, and now have powerful combat power at the peak of legend.

However, unlike ordinary blue dragons, they are not particularly intelligent.

They also especially like to "issue" tasks to adventurers and collect various jewelry and wealth for them.

As a reward, the second fool of the Ka family will give players some magical creations, including some dragon scales and dragon teeth.

There were even very lucky players who used some homemade alchemical glass to get a dragon egg from the second fool of the Ka family.

Of course, these two guys are stupid.

The greed and grudge that belong to the blue dragon are real.

The lucky player made a lot of money with the dragon egg, but he got rid of it in time and achieved financial freedom.

The player guilds and forces that took over were completely killed by these two blue dragons.

Several player casters complained that the dragon egg originally had their marks deliberately left on it.

For a moment, the players who felt like laughing very much couldn't tell who was stupid.

The final encounter between these two blue dragons made Matthew feel a little "surprised".

Because, after the Elf Kingdom of Cole was destroyed, they actually helped many elf survivors to survive the pursuit of the demon army.

Of course, they were also targeted by a demigod-level demon lord, who killed them at a great cost.

What's interesting is that the demigod-level demon lord originally wanted to conquer these two blue dragons as his subordinates.

As a result, they were seriously injured by their self-destruction before death, and became the first demigod unit to die in the hands of players.

Now, the second fool of the Ka family has actually admitted a new member.

Matthew did not hesitate to call them the Three Idiots of the Ka Family.

"With only legendary level of destructive power, you still want to break through the fully defended floating city?"

"I now quite doubt that the combined intelligence attribute points of these three guys should not exceed 20."

This special "revenge" for them actually made Matthew feel a little happy.

He likes this kind of "meeting ceremony".

Seeing that these blue dragons could not break through the defensive sky, the Gulf Territory soldiers quickly recovered and began to look at the surrounding floating cities with professional eyes.

They are looking for the best positions to defend and attack.

Some staff members have already had ideas for building various air defense facilities in their minds.

Having several real dragons as opponents is a completely new and different experience.

With his status as a Grand Arcanist and his courage to take responsibility, Matthew easily took over control of the floating city from several relieved Arcanists.

The moment he took control of the floating city, Matthew understood.

Why are the great arcanists who are quite courageous and very willing to pull various resources into their warehouses, but they are not very concerned about the control of this floating city.

The reason is simple. In addition to maintaining basic floating, protection, movement, and spell enhancement, the floating city only uses 15% of its energy.

To put it simply, it is just enough for a great arcanist to consume spells and experiments on a daily basis. If you want to do anything else, you have to pay for it yourself.

But in a floating city, there can't be only one great arcanist living there, right?

This is even more "interesting" to Matthew than the floating island of the great arcanist of Norman.

"It is indeed a first-generation machine. It is very basic and original. I like it!"

The basics are good!

What Matthew wants most is the basics!

As long as the basic manufacturing technology can be mastered, the progress of "city building" in the Gulf Territory can be greatly improved! (End of chapter)
