Chapter 793: Insidious plan

"Good job. With the help of Broken Demon Crystal, we will be able to secure a victory in this war. I really hope that Terramant and Revalan will not be too timid. It is best to let Ghost City return to the main plane in advance. I can give them a big gift when I come."

Henry sneered and whispered while playing with the transparent crystal pillar in his hand. He really wanted to see what expression the Lost Lady Shar would make when countless monsters flooded into Ghost City to destroy it, whether she sent her avatar directly to find the place like a shrew, or kept it in her heart and waited in the future. Revenge back?

Of course, from the perspective of Shar's behavior, it is more likely to choose the latter. After all, she is a well-known and deep-minded among the gods. She rarely retaliates directly, and prefers to hide in the dark to fan the flames.

"I think it is unlikely that Ghost City will return to the main plane early..." The cold light in Kangus' eyes flashed. "Judging from the records of Netheril's last period, Terramante is undoubtedly a very cautious person, even to describe it as timid, otherwise he would not have conceived so early. The possibility of the city moving to the plane of shadow."

Henry nodded slightly: "Indeed, the Supreme City Lord Telamante is very careful and will never act rashly until all the forces in the entire Faerun Continent have been evaluated. But don't forget, his eldest son Revalan has the opposite character. , So although the possibility of returning to the main plane early is very small, it is not guaranteed."

As a voter of the Lost Lady, Revalan is so loyal to his goddess that he just knelt on the ground and licked Shar’s toes, so it’s not surprising how crazy he acted, otherwise how could a normal person believe in a full The goddess who destroys desire.

It should be understood that the believers of Shar usually have a strong desire to destroy that is difficult to suppress. Every church member has to go through strict screening and at least complete an evil action under the supervision of the pastor. Although it is not as crazy as the prince Cyric of lies, The same is not much better, all can be classified into the category of three wrong views.

"Then what are you going to do? The ghost city must have accumulated a large number of spellcasters after so many years. Especially the shadow physique can greatly extend the lifespan, the wizard group must be countless times stronger than us, and the loss must be very heavy if there is a head-on conflict. "

Congers said his biggest worry. Even if the Ring of Truth has so many witches, he can't guarantee that he can gain an advantage in magic confrontation. After all, Netheril's name is too loud, God knows How many terrifying technologies did the ghost city retain.

Concerns about the demi-lich. Henry not only didn't feel a headache, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a wicked smile: "Don't worry, I have already figured out a countermeasure. You can now take me the broken magic crystal to recruit a monster made up of monsters. The army, the number is at least 100,000, and then gather them in the valley to wait for orders."

"One hundred thousand?!" Congers' eyes burst into a dazzling cold light. "Aren't you trying to..."

"Yes. I just want to throw all these monsters into Ghost City for crazy destruction, hoping that Terramant will not be alive and dead by then. Think about it, if this last leftover from the Netheril era What will happen if there are not enough residents in a floating city?" The smile on Henry's face grew even stronger.

"They will lose the most important cornerstone, and it will not take long before they begin to decline, and eventually they will die." Kang Siyin smiled and said the second half.

What is the most important thing that supports a civilization, especially a magical civilization?

Some scholars believe that they are genius spellcasters who have left their names in history, and some scholars believe that it is an extremely important discovery and invention. For example, the Netheril Scroll and the Mysera Core, and some scholars believe that it is people's attitude towards gods (most powerful magical civilizations don't catch a cold on gods), but they are all wrong...

The progress and development of any civilization is inseparable from the most important point, that is, enriching population resources, and they are the creators of civilization.

There are not many residents in Ghost City itself, only tens of thousands. Once the casualties are severe, then there is no doubt that they will be paralyzed. The Supreme City Lord Telamante has only two options, one is to transform all into the form of undead creatures, turning the ghost city into the city of the undead, and the other is to replenish the new population from the outside.

However, he who claims to be orthodox Netheril may find it difficult to tolerate the second approach, so the possibility of choosing to become the city of the dead is most likely.

In this way, Ghost City has become a target for everyone on the main plane, at least the church of the gods of the kind and neutral camp will spare no effort to oppose it. Normal people are also not willing to live with the undead.

"Death is coming down the world like heavy rain. Nothing is more pleasant than this. I am very honored to be able to write the prelude to destruction by myself. I hope the courage of the enemy will not be too disappointing."

Congers took over the broken magic crystal after speaking. Departing like a gloomy poet. Although he was controlled by Henry's soul, the evil in his nature has not disappeared. Whenever he receives the order of the massacre, he will be extremely excited.

Because the soul is not only a tonic for him, but also a rare alchemy material, and the demigod mummies that are being made recently require a lot of consumption, so Zhengshou has no place to replenish it.

"Hehe, Revalan, I want to see how you deal with a hundred thousand rampage and crazy monsters." Henry looked at the departed demi-lich, narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

He has prepared a large number of medicines extracted from the mutant animalized virus that can burn vitality to strengthen physical fitness, but the cost of using it is a little bit higher, not only will completely lose his mind, but also will be ulcerated in two or three hours. dead.

Of course, as a one-time consumable for cannon fodder, the current level is enough. Anyway, their task is to destroy and kill. As for whether they can survive, it depends on the specific race and physical fitness.

After arranging the plan for the ghost city, Henry visited his wife who had only recently become pregnant, and followed him non-stop to the hot construction site outside the city.

As April approaches, there is finally a breath of spring near the Baldur’s Gate, the broken ice on both sides of the Chongsa River has completely melted away, and new shoots have grown on the bare tree trunks. It is a scene of joy. .

As soon as he arrived at the construction site of the floating city, he immediately noticed that the number of workers seemed to be much less, all of them looked like residents of the city, and almost no peasants could see them.

An official in charge of supervising the quality of the project apparently recognized Henry. Quickly ran over and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, I don't know what I can do for you?"

"How is the number of workers here so much less? Is it dissatisfied with the salary? Or is there a serious accident?" Henry frowned unceremoniously.

Hearing this question, the officials were stunned for a moment, and then immediately showed a dumbfounded expression: "No, neither is it, we are paid absolutely good wages, and there have been no major engineering accidents. The main reason for the decrease in workers is spring plowing. The time has come. Although most farmers grow winter wheat, they still have to go home and take care of the fields, and then replant some vegetables and fruits. For them, this is one of the two busiest periods of the year. One, so I went home in advance to make preparations."

The official's explanation made Henry suddenly realize. I couldn't help but patted his forehead with a smile: "So, I almost forgot about this. It is normal for farmers to go home to plant the land during busy farming seasons. May the goddess of the earth bless you. This year is also a harvest year."

"Please rest assured that due to the abundant snowfall in winter, a large number of pests have been frozen to death. Coupled with the timely spring rains, this year will definitely get an unprecedented bumper harvest." A satisfied smile appeared on the face of the official.

"It seems that you are familiar with agriculture?" Henry asked curiously.

He couldn't believe that a person in charge of supervising and managing construction still knew agriculture. You must know that in Faerun, where the spread of knowledge is relatively slow, it is a good talent to be proficient in two kinds of professional knowledge.

"Of course, Your Majesty. I was promoted because of the excellent management of agriculture last year. After the construction of this miraculous floating city is completed, I believe that I can climb up again. Maybe I will become a nobleman in my lifetime. It's a dream." The official replied excitedly.

Since the Kingdom of West Hartland has just been established. The upper ruling class is not fixed, so as long as it can show enough ability, it will be promoted by Prime Minister Hawke immediately. He doesn't care whether it is a descendant of nobles, so everyone is desperately performing.

"Then work hard, I hope you can become my vassal one day." Henry patted the official's shoulder encouragingly, and then headed towards the center of the floating city. Walked to the tall tower that was half built.

Although this man in his thirties has been trying to express himself, he has forgotten the most important point, that is, the nobles of Faerun mainland must not be without force, and it is difficult to get canonization if he cannot have a professional level. Unless you make enough credit, you will be a slightly more senior official just by relying on your political achievements to slowly climb up to death.

However, Henry did not directly say this sentence~www.ltnovel.com~ because people cannot live without hope, even if it is so slim, but as long as they don’t give up on themselves, they can play a hundred and two percent at work. Ten enthusiasm.

After more than two months of non-stop construction and the help of a large number of wizards, the main body of the floating city has been completed. As long as the middle control tower is completed, you can begin to lay the energy transmission system and construct the magic lock. This is the most important thing in the entire city. The important part is also where a lot of precious materials are spent.

In order to ensure perfection, Henry even prepared for bankruptcy. He wasn't sure whether the wealth he had saved could be completed. Maybe it was time for an auction to sell a large number of cultural relics in his hands. If it was not enough, he I had to find a wealthy dark elf city to "armed transport" last time. Anyway, I had torn my skin with the spider goddess Rose, and it was not bad to offend him again.

money! money! money!

Magic research, especially costly projects like Floating City, was really terrifying. Henry finally understood why Netheril’s Great Arcanists were so keen to expand. Everything was money, even if there was no money. I can’t make a name for my ability... (To be continued.
