There was a trembling sound from underground.

In the hand of the dark wizard with a cold temperament, a strange silver-white metal eyeball appeared, and with the injection of mana, the magic stone crystal inside was activated, and this silver-white eyeball was suspended in mid-air, and quickly flew forward, faintly spreading strange spell fluctuations, like waves spreading little by little.

"Found the hole. ”

The dark wizard glanced at the others, his eyes fell on the adventurer team in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Your mission has been completed. It's time to evacuate. ”

"We may not be able to take care of you later. ”

The tone was not very friendly, there seemed to be a hint of contempt, and the dwarven defender's expression was a little dissatisfied, but before the attack, he was stopped by the wizard next to him, and said, "Don't worry about him. Dark wizards are a bunch of nasty guys. ”

Dark wizards have always had a bad reputation.

Even if they gradually surrendered because of Stephen, it was still difficult for the dark wizards to get along with the others, because the environment in which they were born was too dark. Accustomed to the laws of the dark forest, the dark wizards can't trust others, and their personalities are also distorted to a certain extent, and their murderous intent is much more serious than others. The current dark wizards are mainly concentrated within the Necromancy School, and there are very few dark wizards from other schools now, and one of them has been merged by the Five Ring Tower. The Necromantic Sect has a corpse-like smell on them, and even his teammates keep a certain distance from them, and probably the only one who is not afraid of him is the demon hunter who leads the team.

The top witchers of the Raven's Nest have been hunting down the dark wizards who have committed serious sins for nearly a thousand years, they have extremely high magic resistance, and they are also immune to most negative spells, and now the Raven's Nest is still hunting down the dark wizards who have stolen the remains of ancient evil objects.

Fierce battles soon broke out.

The Iron Golem advanced towards the worm's nest, while the Annihilator squad had a clear division of labor, culling the monstrous and twisted flesh hatching organs bit by bit.

Meanwhile.

In the floating city of Arrantiel, a suspended central crystal also projected part of the image transmitted by the arcane eye, after determining that this demon insect nest did not need more support, the Insight - Akasha turned his gaze behind him, and said slowly, "How is the construction progress of the southern counties?"

Behind her was a high-ranking member of the Blind Witch Society, and the middle-aged witch in front of her said with a respectful expression: "This month, we have built one hundred and eighty kilometers of roads, and we have initially opened up the perimeter of Dragon City. ”

"The druids reclaimed about 3.5 million hectares of land. ”

"This year's food should be enough. ”

"The sixth mine in Windwind City has officially started, and the smelting plant of the fire elemental subplane has also been started, and this year's steel production should exceed 200,000 tons. The first phase of the construction plan drawn up by His Excellency Stephen has basically been achieved. ”

"This is a newly built factory in Arrantil and Windy City. ”

"Some of the other high-ranking wizards hope to be able to open factories themselves. They send a representative to talk to you. ”

Eyer-Akasha glanced at it and said slowly, "Let them wait first." ”

In Stephen's words, in the last five years, the world of Motela and the Quarter Moon has been a process of climbing and exploding productivity, at least to meet the self-sufficiency of all aspects. The population around Arantir has become more and more populous, and it has gradually become the center of the north and south, and in the future this area will gather tens of millions of people. Although the development of the plane can obtain a large number of resources, but the material required is also huge, the current development of the dark abyss is limited to the surface, and the exploration of the elemental plane has just begun, and at this stage, it is more about accumulating resources and cultivating manpower.

If you want to fully develop an elemental sub-plane, you need at least more than 10,000 mid-level wizards, and at present, Arrantil simply does not have that many manpower.

"Hasn't Stephen come back yet?"

The figure of Liana Witch appeared outside the door, and behind her were twin sisters Avella and Emily, whose mentor was now based in Arrantiel, so naturally they followed along. Recently, the people of the Five Rings Tower have been busy refining the magic stone and turning it into a new energy crystal, the Cheldarin Gem of the Thursilver Age. The scope of the magic net's energy supply is limited to the interior of the floating city, and there are many places where energy crystals are needed for external exploration.

"Nope. Eye-Seeker-Akasha shook her head a little tiredly, "He said it would be a few months, or a year or two. ”

Liana Witch was a little disappointed and said, "It's been so long. ”

"Forget it. ”

"I'm going to see Her Highness Betty. ”

Stephen's Botanical Garden has been stripped from the Floating City, and the roots of the Tree of Life have taken root in the depths of the earth, repairing the wounds left by ancient evil creatures along the veins of the earth. The Druid Order is growing in power, but their primary task at the moment is to restore the natural environment of the Moon, where the Shepherd is now the most respected profession. Wizards are more interested in immediate interests, and they are more enthusiastic about dimensional exploration and territory, even the wizards of the Five Rings Tower, who are responsible for relocating dinosaur species to the Quarter Moon, are also for the sake of a larger ecological park in the future.

They had little interest in restoring the natural environment of the Quarter Moon, which was the only thing that druids were supposed to do.

During this time, many wizards amassed a lot of wealth, but it ended up in Stephen's hands, as they needed to exchange more knowledge about the legendary realm from Stephen's library. Of course, Stephen didn't need this wealth very much, and he gave it back to the wizards as a reward for the mission, and finally got a large group of wizards to join the construction of the floating city as a labor force. Arrantiel's contribution is already a hard currency that is more valuable than gold, and this is currently the only place among all the forces that can be exchanged all the way to advanced high-level legendary realm knowledge through conventional means.

The bottomless abyss.

Stephen ended his wanderings of the main material plane, but news continued to reach him.

This period of being stationed in the bottomless abyss was very boring, and he could only continue to deduce the magic model of the Eternal Blazing Sun when he was idle, and it was probably nearly a month later, and finally the Time Dragon brought back a good news, the war along the coast in the south seemed to have stopped, and the two sides temporarily signed an armistice.

It seems that the movement of the natural gods has had an effect, and the elven gods have also intervened in this war at the same time.

But then the next day came back the bad news, some gods did not want the war to end, especially the forces of the Night Lady, the God of War and the God of Fury, etc., they had gained a lot of benefits in this war, and they hoped that the losses on both sides would be greater, and it would be better to weaken the foundation of the Grim Reaper. So a few days later, Stephen received the news that the believers of the God of War and the believers of the God of Death were fighting, and the Night Lady seemed to have another fight with the Silvermoon Lady, anyway, there were just some signs of peace, and suddenly the fight was inextricable.

Little by little, time passed.

A month later, the Time Dragon finally brought back the good news, after cutting down the restless Gods of War and Fury, the Lord of Death and the Lord of Radiance seemed ready to sit down and negotiate.

At this time, the casualties of the main material plane have reached millions.

If the fight continues, the destruction of the war will dramatically increase the casualties, which is something that neither side wants to see, and in the end the two bigwigs have to negotiate under the pressure of the union of the natural gods, as for the final result Stephen does not know yet, but he knows that his mission this time is almost over.

He had been bored in the bottomless abyss for months, and it was best if the mission could be finished quickly.
