Chapter 369: Aden!

Southern Continent, Golden Ivory Tower.

A majestic goshawk flew in the air, its clear and loud chirping echoed in the empty and lonely sky, the clouds piled up in the distant sky, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the clouds, making the sky seem to be splashed with ink and blood, and it appeared to be layered.

The chirping of the goshawk echoed the sound of trumpets, shouts, footsteps, and whipping and lashing on the ground.

From a high vantage point, surrounded by a dense and lush forest, the ground is earthy brown in the middle, like a green plateau, and the golden ivory tower with a forest of towers in the middle is guarded like a basin.

In the basin, countless black slaves were naked, hunched over, sweating at mountains of materials, flanked by soldiers in light armor and whips.

"You fools, hurry up and move your lazy feet and incompetent bodies, Lord Aden needs to complete 20,000 pieces of armor and 50,000 scimitars this month!"

These slaves and soldiers flowed slowly through the basin like a trickle, and beside these streams were neat phalanx soldiers.

The soldiers were dressed in horrible black armor with sharp spikes on their shoulders, chests, the tops of their helmets, and even their knees, and the helmets on their heads were a rare fully covered helmet, which not only could not lift the visors, but only revealed a pair of eyes and two breathable air holes. The soldiers were all tall, the shortest of them were 1.8 meters, and they held spears more than two meters long and a round shield with a diameter of one meter, which looked like a moving torrent of steel.

In the middle of the phalanx, a soldier in leather armor sat on a rhinoceros more than three meters high, beating the war drum tied to the rhinoceros's side.

Like the soldiers in charge of guarding the slaves, these soldiers were all from the Southern Continent, but the difference was that these soldiers were wrapped in hard armor all over their bodies, and only the eyes exposed in the armor masks showed a strange red, like the gaze of a demon in the blood pool of hell.

Under the command of the regimental commander and the drums and trumpets of the commander, the soldiers gradually lined up in a neat phalanx, making the original brown basin look like a black steel plain.

After the last command, the steel forest gradually calmed down, and only the slaves were still toiling hard.

"My lord, your soldiers are ready. A magician in a white robe stood on a high balcony, looking down condescendingly at everything in front of him, and he turned his head and said to a magician behind him with an almost flattering smile.

This magician's name is Loveconder, and he is one of the few tenth-level archmages in the ivory tower, and the magician standing behind him is the owner of the golden ivory tower Aden, one of the world's most famous and famous four magical holy places: Constance Aden!

Aden, the old man who had lived for two or three hundred years, was as old as Tarasya, so old that he could barely distinguish his face, but his eyes were bright and sharp, and so deep that they made people feel intimidated at first sight.

Dressed in a white magic robe and holding a mahogany magic wand inlaid with Achillus crystals, Aden walked to the balcony in a noble and generous manner, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, he even carried a circle of light with a slight golden halo, making him look like a god of the wild world.

"Yes......" Aden propped his hands on the railing of the balcony, looking out at the continent beneath his feet, and a flame called ambition slowly burned in his deep eyes, "I have worked so hard to manage such an army for decades, and even Tarasia didn't even know they existed. Now, it's time to see how well this monster is being raised!"

Lovecond smiled and said, "Thanks to your wise idea, let the tribe under your protection provide a large number of slaves every year, so that you can create such an invincible army!"

A faint smug smile appeared at the corner of Aden's mouth, Lovecond is one of the few practical combat masters in the Golden Ivory Tower, but Aden's favorite thing is that this guy is not only strong, but also very measured in his speech, he knows when he can scratch Aden's most itchy place.

Indeed, it is Aden's tough and brutal annual slave payment system that has caused the tribes of this continent to decline rapidly, and the strength of the Golden Ivory Tower is increasing every year.

This initiative was inconspicuous at first, because the number of slaves that needed to be surrendered each year was only a small percentage of the population of these tribes, but after ten years of this initiative, the Golden Ivory Tower rapidly increased its population and labor force through the slaves surrendered by various tribes, and the Golden Ivory Tower began to enter a stage of rapid growth in both industrial and magical creative power.

For any civilization to develop at a high speed, population is the most basic condition.

After the Golden Ivory Tower entered a period of rapid development, Aden continued his low-key and forbearant rule, and in the face of the invasion of the Pound Continent, he continued to play the role of the savior of the tribes in the Southern Continent, thus further expanding the process of plundering the wealth and population of various tribes.

As the strength of the Golden Ivory Tower grew, some wise people among the tribes finally began to perceive the bad momentum.

But by this time, the golden ivory tower had grown up from the flesh and bones of hundreds of thousands of black slaves and the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry.

Two or three hundred years ago, when Aden first came to this continent, his power was only limited to the area of the ivory tower, and the tribes of the southern continent gained a mysterious power through their belief in Mavi, the goddess of chaos, which made them brave and agile, and in the jungle, they were the most terrible natural enemies of magicians, so Aden has been suppressed in place by these tribes looking around, unable to move at all.

And, before the discovery of the mysterious altar, the magician had been working his ivory tower in this wild continent with the attitude of spreading magic and preaching magic.

However, after discovering the mysterious altar, Aden's long-suppressed ambition finally exploded, and he began to plan to expand to the periphery, and at this time, the world's most powerful empire, Kriza XVI of the Pound Empire, launched the world-famous war of invasion of the south!

It can be said that the three invasions of the Pound Continent in the past fifty years have catalyzed the Golden Ivory Tayaden into a terrifying monster and a powerful and terrifying war machine

As the Golden Ivory Tower grew, it was too late for the wise men of these tribes to discover the ambitions and schemes of Aden, who had grown so great that no tribe in the Southern Continent could compete with it, and the invasion of the Pound Empire had made it even worse.

The brutal exploitation and oppression of Aden led to the decline and defeat of these tribes in the southern continent, and in order to resist Aden's rule, these tribes inevitably moved towards unity.

In the past, the annual bonfire was the day of worship and the celebration of the gods of these primitive tribes, and this sacred festival was absolutely forbidden for people of other tribes to participate.

On this day, the leaders of each clan would offer their offerings to Mavi, the goddess of chaos, while young men and women would sing and dance around the campfire, and those who were in love with each other would sleep and fly on the spot.

Now, this kind of bonfire has gradually evolved into a large gathering with extremely strong political and military overtones, and more and more tribes are brought together through this large-scale gathering, and the population of the tribe is enriched by the mating of men and women between the various tribes.

Slowly, such bonfires will cause the tribes to evolve, so that these usually scattered tribes will become a powerful large federation, and armies against the tyranny of Aden will begin to appear, and those smaller tribes will slowly grow through this campfire.

Aden could clearly feel that these primitive tribes scattered in all corners of the Southern Continent were like drops of water that were constantly fusing together, and they were slowly turning into an extremely powerful torrent.

Today, Aden is going to use this legion that he has formed for many years to first sweep away these scattered tribes around him, and then march towards the strongest tribal federation in the southern continent, sweeping all obstacles with steel!

"With this army, the rebuilding of the Magic Empire is just around the corner!" A low laugh rolled out of Aden's throat, "Tarasya, Tarasia, I'm afraid you didn't expect that I would complete the great cause of unifying the Southern Continent so quickly, right?" When you come here again, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back!"

Lovecond smiled and asked, "My lord, do you want to pack up with Lord Talasya? His Sky City is not easy to deal with, and besides, isn't he your companion?"

Aden glanced at LoveCond, "Partner, would you like to give everything you have to your partner?

Lovecond wasted no time in bending down and said respectfully: "I wish Your Majesty a victory!"

Aden laughed wildly, and he pointed to the dense jungle in the distance: "There, the barbarians are doing their bonfires, busy with the pleasure of men and women, where would they have imagined that my legion will soon uproot them!"

After Aden finished speaking, he waved his hand holding the magic wand in the air, and said loudly: "Now listen to my orders!"

With a "bang", there was a neat heel collision sound from the steel forest under the tower, like a roaring wave.

"Go, step out of everything that stands in your way!!" Aden used a amplification spell that made his voice sound like it came from heaven, swirling down, and then buzzing in all directions.

"Huha!!" the black-pressed legion let out a shout, and then they began to move slowly, like a surging black torrent, pouring into the dense jungle, startling the birds to flutter their wings and the beasts to flee!

=====================================================

Phew, it's another difficult bottleneck, and the other day was really bad.

After today's chapter, I obviously feel much better. ~I'm sorry to all of you~
