According to Michelangelo's original vision, this storm city is the city of God in his mind.

Beautiful surroundings, clean streets, excellent facilities, and a safe castle are all essential. Then he can also build all kinds of iconic buildings in the city, and engrave exquisite sculptures and murals in this city forever.

As a result, it was almost a year, and everything that had been agreed with Duke could only be in the planning drawings.

In the face of Michelangelo's strong dissatisfaction, Duke could only cry with him now, and told Michelangelo about the current situation of Storm Castle with emotion and reason, and also exaggerated a little, if such a city continues to be built, then Storm Castle may freeze to death and starve to death this winter!

Hearing Duke's story, although Michelangelo was extremely unwilling in his heart, as an ascetic, he was kind in his heart, and it was impossible to base his desires on the suffering of the people. So the result was also doomed, Michelangelo finally chose to regress, and could only stay in Storm New City, waiting for the next year when Storm Castle was financially relaxed, and continued to complete the "City of God" in his mind.

But Duke's calculation is not so simple, he does not just want Michelangelo to finish the construction of Storm City, but wants to keep him in Storm Castle forever. After all, it is no exaggeration to say that Michelangelo is the second architect in the world to come into contact with modern architecture besides himself, and many of his own ideas and designs can be understood by Michelangelo later.

And what city Storm Castle wants to build in the future, it also needs such an architect to sit in charge, Duke himself is a lord after all, and it is impossible to keep an eye on the construction of the city all the time. Like the construction of an ocean city that is about to begin, Duke needs a chief designer to help him solve these problems.

"Michelangelo, I know you're unhappy with the shutdown of Storm City, and you feel like you've lost your purpose. Well, I can continue to fulfill your architectural dreams, what do you think?"

When Michelangelo heard Duke say this, he looked at Duke with a wary look, and he always felt that Duke had a sense of ill will.

"What do you want me to do?"

"I'm sure you're already familiar with the inland city, and you can't find the slightest new idea, but the sea is vast, and it can give you a different experience every day, and building a port city of the future is definitely a challenge that you have never encountered before, how about it, interested?"

Duke, an architectural engineer himself, understands an architect's quest and aspiration for his work. Especially an artistic architect like Michelangelo, he definitely doesn't want to repeat the same thing, there are not many ports in this world, but there are absolutely no ports with modern social functions in this world, and Duke believes that Michelangelo will be interested.

Sure enough, when Duke said this, Michelangelo's eyes revealed a trace of curiosity and yearning. But he didn't understand what medicine was sold in Duke Gourd, so it was difficult for him to say what he decided.

When he saw Michelangelo's curiosity, Duke understood that this was the case, so he put his arm on Michelangelo's shoulder affectionately, not caring at all that he was an ascetic of the Holy See, an enemy in the standard sense.

Instead, he talked to him about some of the new coastal buildings of the future, which instantly attracted Michelangelo's attention and opened the door to a new world for him. Having piqued Michelangelo's interest, Duke made his intentions clear, that he intended to build a port in the Sea of Death.

That's right, it's a port!Duke's previous vision was to build a port city directly, but the reality of Storm Castle told Duke that it was basically impossible to build a new city, even if it was hollowed out from the bottom of Storm Castle, it would not be able to do all this.

Therefore, Duke plans to build a fortress-like pass to defend against a possible attack by the Shark Horde, and as for the future city residence, he will wait until Stormcastle's finances are eased.

The reason why Duke did this was also due to the fact that the Sea Tribes were different from humans, they themselves lived an amphibious life on the ocean islands, and did not have perfect urban facilities. More importantly, their fear of the cold in winter is not as severe as that of humans. In other words, they don't need the warmth of the house, and they can survive the cold of winter.

It was these two points that made Duke see a solution, as long as the port and defensive fortress were built, as for the house, it would be slowly built later, which would greatly relieve the current pressure on Storm Castle.

Of course, the house can be built slowly, which does not mean that Duke can ignore this group of sea tribes, they still need a place for food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

However, Duke had already planned this place, which was the estuary next to the trade market and the fertile land on both sides of the Seine.

Especially the land on both sides of the Seine, because of the threat of the Ice Demon, Storm Castle never dared to reclaim the land far from the castle, and more to reclaim the land in the middle of Storm Castle and Alpine City.

And because the number of people before Stormcastle was also limited, a little land reclamation was enough to supply the needs of the farmers of Stormcastle, so although the banks of the Seine were fertile, no one was willing to risk farming.

However, as the Storm Army gradually gained strength, and in order to meet future needs and war reserves, Storm Castle had already reclaimed a large number of fields along the Seine River during spring ploughing. But even if it is, with the ability of Storm Fort, it can only reclaim the side of Storm Castle near the hydroelectric factory, and the other side of the place next to the Monster Valley is still a wasteland.

But now it's different, this big victory over the Ice Demon can at least ensure that in the short term, the Ice Demon will not attack Storm Castle in a big way. And with the discovery of the leakage of the magic of the Well of Eternity, the gates of hell should not be opened again for the time being, in a sense, basic safety can be guaranteed along the Seine.

So Duke directly ordered the territory along the Seine to be cultivated by the Sea Tribes, allowing them to grow some crops that could be harvested quickly before the onset of winter. If there is still a shortage of food, the shortage will be replenished by Stormfort. Moreover, the construction of their houses can also be built in the trade market and the Seine, once the trade market fortress and port are established, this is an absolute line of defense, and the Shark tribe will no longer be able to threaten the sea tribe and the hydro factory!
