Today, due to some unexpected events, the progress of exploring the Wizard's Tower has been pushed back by a few days.

Because the old fur seals are back.

In fact, Sauron had already thought that the old fur dog was dead. Sailing on the sea is always inevitable to have a little accident, such as encountering a powerful sea monster, encountering a terrible storm, accidentally hitting the reef of a ship, etc. The fleet that the old fur dog brought out had been out of news for two months, and basically the management of Modo City had already thought that he was dead, and the position was arranged for someone else to take over. But what everyone didn't expect was that this guy actually came back alive.

If you come back alive, you will come back alive, and the old fur dog is not a particularly important person in the management of Modo.

But this time his return was a bit interesting.

Because the old fur dog had brought back a lot of useful information to Sauron, this time he did not return to Modo City from the eastern route, but from the other side of the Amazon rainforest to Modo. It was a new route, and the old fur seal's safe return proved that it was not very dangerous, and in his rudimentary chart, the final destination of the route was a large, somewhat deserted island.

Located at the junction of the eastern world, it is larger than the southern kingdoms combined, and one-third of the land shows signs of desertification, but it is not as serious as the eastern kingdom. There are remnants of ancient ruins on the island, as they are too old to be seen on the surface, but there may be more undiscovered underground.

The old fur seal and others found huge ruins of the city, but they did not see any aboriginal life.

The island was about two or three days away from the route to the Eastern Seas, and from the area they were exploring so far, only a few of the Oriental pirates had used the coastline as a secret base.

No one from the East has studied and explored the island in depth.

It's not that the people of the East don't have an adventurous spirit, but the island is sealed with some powerful ancient evil in their legends.

The old fur dog and the others did not encounter any ancient evil creatures, and it was unlikely that they would come back alive if they did, but when they explored the edge of the city ruins, they did encounter a lot of undead and ghosts. These things are simply not something they can deal with. After losing a few men, the old fur dog decisively gave up further exploration, and directly led people to raid the lair of the Eastern pirates at night, and then robbed them of a warship and returned to Modo City from the Amazon rainforest.

The old fur seal still has a bit of a brain.

He actually knew to bring something valuable from it back to Sauron to see, for Sauron, the value is naturally not gold jewelry, these things are not lacking in Modo City at all. The old fur seal brought back a peculiar bit of dark red dirt, some special alchemy parts, the corpses of mutated creatures living nearby, and what looked like a light bulb.

In the words of the old fur dog, this thing was in a room in the ruins, and I don't know how long it had been lit.

There are two or three boxes of things that will be brought in.

It's a pity that it's not anything of great value. Seeing that the old fur dog was really just leading people around the periphery, Sauron picked up an alchemy part and glanced at it, then handed it to Golia and the Fallen Witch next to him, and said in a deep voice, "Could it be the Fallen Floating City?" ”

Goliath looked at some of these miscellaneous items, frowned and shook her head, "I can't be sure." ”

"The alchemy of these things is not very high, if it is really a floating city that fell there. So why didn't there be a big bang? It stands to reason that there should not be relatively well-preserved large urban ruins on the physical plane now. It's possible that it's just another wizarding city buried in history, and the specifics have to be seen to be sure. ”

The Fallen Witch also nodded when she heard this, and said slowly: "It doesn't seem to be of much value at the moment. But after taking the Wizard's Tower, you might want to consider checking it out. ”

"The complete remains of the Floating City that exist in the Material Plane can only be found in the Eastern Realm."

Sauron nodded and said, "Yes." I know. ”

With that, he turned his gaze to the nautical chart in front of him, which, according to the old fur seal's chart, would pass through the Amazon rainforest. Finally reach the borders of the Eastern Country. Sauron's finger tapped lightly on the map, as if thinking about something important, and after a moment he shook his head and reached out to erase a sign from the map.

"The eastern seas are too far away."

Sauron stared at the nautical chart in front of him. He muttered, "At this juncture when the Sage Tribulation broke out, it is no longer suitable for me to expand my territory again. It was because of Princess Anna and the eldest princess that the Ice and Snow Realm was able to suppress those pirates. Otherwise, because it is too far from the south coast, it will be full of loopholes in management. ”

"The Eastern Seas."

"The benefits of taking it are simply disproportionate to the price paid."

Sauron already has the territory of the Three Seas.

If the eastern sea is taken again, then basically the sea area of human activities is close to completion, but the current situation is that the cost of taking the eastern sea is too great, and the benefits obtained are already very limited. One more Arendelle route wouldn't be of much use to Sauron, and he might as well put it somewhere else if he had that energy.

However, this area still needs to be marked.

The core territory of the Arcane Empire is in the Eastern Country, and the place where the Floating City fell when the Arcane Empire was destroyed is the East, and no one is sure if they will be blind and touch the dead mouse.

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as Sauron was about to continue his exploration of the Wizard's Tower, a small accident occurred.

Fallen Leaf City.

A very important message has been sent from the intelligence system of Modor City, that is, a part of the half-elves of Fallen Leaf City seem to have been organized, and they are praying for Sauron's protection and preparing to migrate to the overseas islands en masse. Because of the importance of this matter, the people below could not call the shots at all, so they were sent to Sauron at the first time. The Half-Elves are Sauron's main source of followers at the moment, so he takes this matter very seriously. He definitely doesn't have too much population, and if a half-elf plans to move to an overseas archipelago, he will definitely welcome it.

But.

The city of Modo can't fit it anymore.

In its original design, the city of Mordor was a structure similar to that of ancient Rome, and its population was only a few tens of thousands, and even the third expansion would not exceed 100,000. It's not that the area of Modo City can't accommodate so many people, but the supply of all kinds of food, drink, and Lazar can only be maintained at this scale to be relatively easy to operate. In this era, the transportation capacity was very limited, and it took a lot of effort to transport a boatload of fish from the port of Modo City to the inner city, and the population was too large and concentrated, which would cause the city to become quite bloated.

If these half-elves wanted to come, they would definitely not be treated as well as the first batch.

It is estimated that they can only go to the towns that are being developed near Modo City, and only when these towns around Modo City are all established, can the supply system be truly established, and the population of Modo City can be expanded to more than 100,000 people!
