Chapter 281: Advanced

The development of Zhenbei City has reached this point, and Suren is already preparing to establish a principality. The principality is the smallest country in the world, and the king is generally referred to as the Grand Duke.

Above the duchy are kingdoms, empires, and of course a form of government is the alliance of city-states, such as the alliance of city-states in the south of the Kingdom of Florence.

It was a loose alliance of more than twenty prosperous free cities or aristocratic domains, and there was no subordinate relationship between the city-states, each of which was self-governing, but if you underestimated this alliance, it would be a big loss.

This city-state alliance had one-fifth the size of the Kingdom of Florence, but one-third of its population. In any way, Florence was able to suppress this alliance of city-states, but the reality was that the Kingdom of Florence was beaten by them.

In the few conflicts in the history of the Kingdom of Florence and the League of City-States of Rolandvia, it was the Kingdom of Florence that was beaten, not only the Kingdom of Florence, but also several other countries around it.

It can be said that the alliance of Luo Lanvia's city-states belongs to the level of small overlords in the surroundings, if it weren't for the fact that they are not keen on aggression, the surrounding kingdoms and principalities would have been unified by them a long time ago.

The reason why this city-state alliance is so powerful is that the wizarding civilization here is prosperous, it has the largest wizarding academy in the whole continent, and even this alliance of city-states of Rolanvia is said to have been formed by the Star Council, and they have more wizards than all the surrounding countries combined.

At the same time, the Union of City-States of Rolandvia is one of the most commercially active regions.

Su Lun wants to establish a principality is actually a little bit worse, after all, although he now has a population of 120,000, but there is only one city, in this case, it is still possible to establish a free city-state, and the establishment of a principality is a little smaller.

Fortunately, with the continuous construction of Zhenbei City, other cities are also building rapidly, or it will not be long before Zhenbei City has four cities, and it will be easy for other forces to recognize the establishment of a principality when the time comes.

For the construction of the city, Zhenbei City once again began to go to the wilderness to capture slaves during this time, and now Zhenbei City has enough strong force, and it is much better to let them engage in actual combat than training.

After dealing with some important matters, Suren began to build a training camp belonging to the Shooting Sound Battalion, which was also placed in the outer city, right next to the trapping camp, and Suren specially dispatched a construction team to build this camp for three days.

After the camp was built, Suren began to gather all the archers who had been upgraded to the level of marksman. There were four archers who had reached the level of a marksman, one more than the last time he checked.

Two of the four archers are the spirit of war, after all, the earliest archers under him are the spirit of war, and if you want to advance to become a soldier of the Shooting Sound Battalion, you also need to go through a cruel training, and after completing the training, after fusing the light ball of the shooting battalion soldiers, it can be considered a success.

Because of the experience of trapping the camp, Su Lun also had some experience in training the Sound Shooting Battalion, and after the camp was established, he let these sharpshooters enter the training. Suren didn't keep an eye on them, because in addition to the Shooting Battalion, this back-to-back battle with the orcs had led some pikemen to become sharpshooters.

Su Lun naturally didn't waste it, and directly gathered these newly advanced sharpshooter guards, this time there were eleven sharpshooter guards who participated in the advancement, including five of the spirit of war, and the rest were ordinary humans.

After such a long time, the first batch of war spirits summoned by Su Lun's subordinates have already died in battle, and the level of war spirits recruited after that is still low.

Eleven sharpshooter guards participated in the trapping camp trial, and Su Lun's mood couldn't help but become nervous now, this time he didn't know how many of the two elite soldiers could successfully advance.

The trials of the trapped camp and the Shooting Camp were all for a week, and Suren arranged for manpower to supply the two camps uninterruptedly, and then in addition to coming here every day to treat the wounded soldiers, he was to check the progress of the restoration of the secret realm and the progress of the construction of the wizard tower.

The progress of restoration and construction in both places was slow, especially the Wizard's Tower, and the construction of a hundred and twenty-meter-high tower in this era would have been an impossible task without supernatural power.

Due to the war, trade routes were not smooth, the price of obsidian increased, and the supply was much smaller, so in order to obtain enough obsidian, Suren began to send gray dwarves to search for obsidian veins in the underworld.

According to wizard research, the formation of obsidian is related to magmatic activity, there are no volcanoes in the northern wasteland, so the obsidian reserves are very small, and the underground world is rich in mineral resources, but the amount of obsidian is also limited. Gray dwarves have found a few scattered veins of obsidian.

The yield of these obsidian is very low, and some of the obsidian is of poor quality, and Su Lun is also required to use spells to deal with the impurities in it, and not much obsidian has been found, but some other iron ore, crystal ore, and copper ore have been found.

Suren drew a map of the minerals found in the underworld, and slowly excavated them when he had enough manpower.

"Your Excellency, Lord. "Just as Suren had finished his daily training and returned from the trapping camp and the Shooting Battalion, an attendant hurried in.

"What's the urgency?" asked Su Lun after a glance.

"The grey dwarves of Orlando have just sent word that they have found an obsidian vein. The attendant said respectfully.

"Great, let them dig quickly!" said Suren happily.

"The Grey Dwarves are ready to develop, but..."

"But what?"

"That obsidian vein is in the territory of the Minotaurs. The Grey Dwarves tried to dig up the vein, but the Minotaurs refused, and they captured some of the Grey Dwarves. The guard hurriedly said.

"Minotaurs, who gave them the courage to arrest me. A cold light flashed in Su Lun's eyes, and the temperature in the room instantly dropped by several degrees.

"Is there any information about those minotaurs?how many of them are there?," After a while, Suren continued to ask.

"According to the news from the dwarves, there are at least two hundred people in this minotaur tribe, and the specific strength is not clear, but the gray dwarves have found that one of these minotaurs is a minotaur shaman!"

The Minotaur race is not very widespread on the continent, they belong to large humanoid monsters, in fact, they should be called Minotaurs. The Minotaur is a strong, usually very warlike creature. This creature has a high physique and strength, and usually an adult minotaur can reach twice the strength of a human.

The strength is higher than that of the ogre, and at the same time the intelligence is higher than that of the ogre, and the minotaurs are proficient in forging, although they can only forge the axe armor and shield they use, but they are much stronger than the ogre.

A qualified minotaur warrior is at the level of a great knight, this three-meter-tall, muscular monster has a strong destructive power, and the strength of the berserk minotaur has reached the level of a knight.

Although Minotaurs have limited intelligence, they are very talented in some things, such as not getting lost in mazes, and the ability of the olfactory leader to track enemies through smell, all of which make the Minotaurs notoriously difficult in the underworld.

The Minotaur believes in Buffyment, the king of the Minotaurs, and although they are both dark creatures, the Minotaur and the Gnoll often fight, because the King of the Minotaurs, Buffyment, and the King of the Gnolls, Yenogu, are mortal enemies.

Two hundred minotaurs, but not Orlando's gray dwarves can deal with, at this time, Suren suddenly appeared in his mind a picture of the gray dwarf and the minotaur fighting, the three-meter-tall minotaur is tall and mighty, and the dwarf who is only one and a half meters tall at most stands beside them like a child.

The height difference is so obvious, how can you fight? Jump up and hit its knees? Thinking of this, Su Lun also wanted to laugh a little.

Soon Su Lun took his thoughts back, these minotaurs must be going to do something to them, whether they attack the gray dwarf or not, after all, he still understands this truth when the side of the couch allows others to sleep soundly.

This underground world has been regarded by Suren as his territory, and these minotaurs will be facing each other sooner or later, but now it is just a little earlier, but the information about these minotaurs is not enough now, and Suren is ready to let the drow elves go to investigate.

Let Ayton send someone to collect intelligence, Su Lun began to gather soldiers, two hundred Minotaurs with strength at least knight level are not easy to deal with, especially in an area with a complex environment like the underground world, Su Lun will not act rashly without full certainty.

Unlike all the enemies Suren had encountered before, the Minotaurs knew how to forge armor and weapons, so they were well-equipped, which, combined with strength, and their physical strength, made them a tough bone to gnaw.

In addition to the soldiers of Zhenbei City, Suren also sent someone to bring Alex in, and this battle also requires the help of the Harpy, although these minotaurs wearing heavy armor and throwing stones have limited effect, but the lethality of throwing fire oil will not be reduced.

Su Lun was worried that if the place where these minotaurs lived was a labyrinth, it would be a headache, and it would be difficult for the crowd tactics in the maze to work, and the environment of the maze would not be friendly to the harpy.

After giving the order to the matter, Suren waited for information while continuing to check the training of the trapping camp and the shooting battalion.

A week passed quickly, after a week of training, eleven sharpshooters and four sharpshooters had completed all the training, and Su Lun was also very happy to see these radiant soldiers.

Bringing these soldiers to the advanced quiet room to advance, Su Lun took out fifteen small balls of light and chose to fuse. The ball of light entered the bodies of the soldiers, and a progress bar appeared on the images of the soldiers, and the fusion had begun.
