Chapter 4: The Well of Darkness 1
Compared to the Stone Golem, the production cost of the Steel Golem has increased several times.
The weight of an iron golem is about 5,000 pounds, that is, 2.3 tons, and a large number of potions and concoctions must be used in the process of making, and the production of its body requires a corresponding level of craftsmanship, and the difficulty is more than a little higher than that of the stone golem.
However, Stephen had already planned this, and at this time, it was the turn of the stoneheart dwarves from the Moonmoon.
As everyone knows.
Dwarves are born blacksmiths, and even half-grown lads can fight well, so this is the time to join a group of dwarves to work in the Golem Factory. It would still be troublesome to recruit in a hurry, but Stephen now has an entire group of stoneheart dwarves to call on, and he can easily transfer three hundred dwarven blacksmith masters. Because the Steel Golem was too expensive to make, Stephen had to replan the entire Golem Factory, building a large steel furnace on the periphery, as well as creating an additional small elemental furnace for energy.
The iron ore of Arantir is sufficient.
However, the production speed of the Steel Golem is still very slow, and it will take about three days to make one Iron Golem, and when it is completely completed, it will be able to make about three to five statues a day.
Compared to the glorious Arcane era, Stephen's Floating City is still a little less productive today.
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
In Stephen's own hands, the Golem Factory was renovated in advance, a large steel furnace with a height of twenty-five meters was built, and there was a completed blacksmith shop nearby, where more than three hundred stone-hearted dwarves were busy, because the production process of the steel golem was relatively demanding, and few people in humans could reach it, and the training time of a blacksmith master was too long, and the life span of humans was too short. There are currently about 500 people working in the entire Golem Factory, almost all of them are wizards except for the dwarves, mainly members of the Blind Witch Society, many of whom are interested in alchemy.
The Golem is a girl's best friend.
According to the current progress, at least three Steel Golems will be made every day next week, which is about a hundred in a month, and 1,200 Steel Golems can be made in a year, barely forming an army of Steel Golems.
The entire Arantir temporarily stopped its external expansion and began to frantically accumulate resources to improve its strength.
The Druids spread their influence to the Sons of the Forest in the North, and now the Arondo-Tree Shepherds have a high reputation among the Children of the Forest, and the Church to serve the Tree of Life has begun to be established. Dragon City's judgment was completely quelled, and Stephen's display of strength silenced the entire northern realm, and many veteran nobles couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing that he had no intention of continuing to expand. A large number of resources are being sent from the dark abyss, and Stephen's already empty warehouse is gradually filling, and he can even feed a gem to the topaz dragon Olexia as a snack every day.
The exploration progress of the Flame Mountain Secret Realm is relatively slow.
The wizards suspect that there is a red dragon bloodline in this plane, the nature of the true dragon is more lewd and promiscuous, and the kind dragon is still a little more reserved, and the five-colored evil dragon will be much more debauched. Red dragon, green dragon, blue dragon, black dragon, white dragon, red dragon is the most arrogant and the most lewd, chaotic, the red dragon with the strongest and most powerful physique is easy to leave some offspring through tough means, so there is more red dragon bloodline in the dragon vein warlock, and the white dragon bloodline is the rarest, basically with the dragon ** mate to breed Asian offspring. This is the case with the Flaming Mountain, which is home to a large number of wurm creatures adapted to the volcanic environment.
However, the wizards of the Five Rings Tower have yet to spot the Red Dragon, as they have not yet been able to penetrate deep into the volcanic area.

The bottomless abyss, the well of darkness.
The Well of Darkness is one of the many famous planes within the Abyss, but it's also the last place the Demon Lords want to talk about.
The Well of Darkness was born more than 50,000 years ago, when humans began to multiply and rise to be active in the main material plane, and then after the death of these humans, some of them fell into the abyss. At that time, the human soul would not automatically transform into a demon, and the Orbis demon lords at that time found that the human soul had a dark side far beyond that of other races, and it can be said that it is the most emotionally complex intelligent creature at present, far more suitable for the demon form than other intelligent creatures such as elves, dwarves, and orcs. Therefore, the Orbis Demon Lords at that time transformed the souls of humans to create the current third generation of Tanari Demons.
At that time, the Orbis Demon Lords were still very powerful, they inherited some of the abilities from the Void Demons, and they were quite good at transforming creatures.
The original Tanari demons existed as slaves.
However, the Orbis Demon Lords never imagined that they actually underestimated the potential of human souls, and the evil and dark side of their hearts contained immense energy, so the first generation of Tanari Demon Lords rose. They launched a rebellion, killing almost ninety percent of the Orbis demons, and only a very small number of them were still alive, and at that time, the laws of the plane of the bottomless abyss were changed. During the reign of the Orbis Demons, the Abyss was not so chaotic, but I don't know if it was because of the dark side of human nature, since the birth of the Tanari Demon, the war in the Abyss has never stopped.
The demons began to flood like locusts.
The human beings in the main material plane gradually flooded, and the demons of the same bottomless abyss also began to flood, and in the end, there were traces of demons almost everywhere in the lower planes, and at the same time, traces of humans could be seen almost everywhere in the main material plane.
Not all of the Orbis demons are dead, they are the second generation of demons, inheriting some of the abilities of the Void Demons, so although some Orbis demons are dead, their bodies are still alive, and there are still fragments of their souls, and even their huge corpses can be seen in some places, and their painful wails can be heard, among which the most famous is the huge Orbis demon corpse in the territory of the king of the jackals - Yenogu.
The Well of Darkness is where the demon of Orbis was originally imprisoned.
Some demon lords are as difficult to kill as gods, and the demons can only seal them here forever.
There are a lot of bottomless pools here.
They are prisons for prisoners!
There is a strange inky black liquid in these pools, they don't know what to call it, some people call it [the evil of the world], these strange liquids can bind the people in the pool, even the powerful demon lords can not escape. Of course, the Well of Darkness is not the only way to hold prisoners, there are countless seals here, even the demons will not approach, because there they can hear the whispers of the ancient evil gods. In the time period when the ancient gods of order alternated with the gods of faith, many evil gods were born, and the gods often mated and multiplied during that period, so many gods were born at that time, and the Well of Darkness was also a place where some gods and evil gods were imprisoned.
