In the distance, you can see the lighthouse standing tall!

The lighthouse is a territorial structure that allows ships to speed up and allows people to monitor the surrounding sea from above.

Very useful!

As the distance closes, it also makes people see the port situation clearly.

A staggering number of ships of different sizes dock at the port.

At this time, the number of ships in the storm collar exceeded 100, even if you don't count fishing boats and the like.

Even if many of them were second-hand ships from other forces, it was enough to show how much Storm Lord's maritime transportation power had grown.

The Merchant Ship and the Storm are not there, it should be on the Pale Collars' side.

The flotilla docked.

"Your Excellency!"

Porudo came with a group of people to greet him.

It's not that he wants to make this kind of scene, but because he has been busy at the port, and of course he has to come over to say hello when Zhao Hao comes back.

Port!

It's definitely the busiest place for the Storm Collar at this stage.

After all, there are too many harvests in the Undercity, and they need to be transported back to be registered.

"Well, good work!"

Looking at Porudo's tired appearance, Zhao Hao patted the other party on the shoulder, indicating that he was extremely satisfied with his work.

And getting the compliment made Porudo feel that this time of hard work was worth it.

"By the way, have the slaves and craftsmen been settled?"

Zhao Hao asked about this concern.

These 'treasures' were the first to be shipped back to the territory.

"All the dark elf slaves have been handed over to Lord Turing, the craftsmen have been settled, and the new workshop will be completed soon!"

Porudo replied immediately.

Of course, he understood the value of these slaves and craftsmen, so he dealt with them as soon as possible.

What the slave didn't say, it was all handed over to Turing to start cultivating.

The dark elves themselves are a race with a slave culture, and there is no 'no 'free or rather die' plot for becoming a slave of the strong, which is why they have to fight each other's ideas.

If you are a slave of another race, who is bent on 'freedom' and who feels that you are a spellcaster, you will be numb by nature.

The Dark Elves are not so pretentious, and as long as you are strong enough, it is not surprising that the caster is your slave.

The number of apprentices is in the thousands!

However, all of them are Gold Eaters, which require a lot of resources and a long time to cultivate to see the effect.

And the craftsmen are carefully placed.

As for the elves, because the Storm Territory belongs to the 'Barrier' camp, the exclusion is not too great, and the point is that they are not capturing the enemy, but saving them from the hands of the dark elves, so it is not too difficult to get them to join.

The focus is on the dwarven blacksmith!

These brains are definitely not possible to replace with other people.

The problem is that as a reborn, Zhao Hao knows how to level the dwarves as quickly as possible.

Wine!

Yes, you can settle each other with wine.

As long as the other party is offered wine, the dwarf will be very talkative.

And it is not easy to get such a cargo as wine, after all, there is a great shortage of food now, who will use it to make wine.

But the Storm Collar lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of food.

There are many winemakers among the elf craftsmen, and they are completely one-stop production and sales.

It was the abundance of alcohol that made the dead-headed dwarven craftsmen willing to work for them.

The new workshop was built for the dwarven craftsmen.

The harvest of the dwarven blacksmith this time is far more than the last time, both in terms of quantity and quality, after all, the most of the dwarven blacksmiths last time were high-level, but this time there are even masters, and there are no apprentices, all of them are formal craftsmen.

This is the most valuable asset!

From now on, the Stormlord can be described as an 'arms dealer'.

Of course, in addition to the slaves and artisans, there are also snakes and lizards and black ox carts.

The injection of a large amount of resources, although it will not increase the combat power of the Storm Leader instantly, is of great significance.

Especially with so many snake lizards, even if the wheat fields are cultivated to 10 million acres, there is no need to worry about the lack of large animals.

However, there is no urgency in this regard, and now there is too much food in the storm collar, and there is no shortage at all.

Another important news is that after the population exceeded 10 million, most of the refugees have been 'completely digested'.

This means arranging a job and a place to live, while also giving people a sense of belonging to the Storm Collar.

In addition to these, there is also a big cake painted by Zhao Hao.

As long as you work for the Storm Collar for a few years, you can allocate land!

This alone is enough for these refugees to join the Storm Territory with one heart.

After all, their homes have been destroyed and they are already homeless, so it is not unacceptable to join the Storm Territory.

Zhao Hao listened to Poruto's report.

Although he generally does not interfere in these internal affairs, it does not mean that he does not care.

With the plundered resources of the Undercity injected into the territory, and the population exceeded 10 million, the current Storm Territory can only be described in four words.

Fledgling!

Although it is not as good as the eight principalities (actually kingdoms), it is definitely the first tier below.

Perhaps a true principality could be victorious.

This is talking about a duke's principality, not the power of the eight principalities, which is obviously the strength of the kingdom, but calls itself a 'principality' for historical reasons.

It is also the Storm Leader's increasingly strong strength that makes Zhao Hao's movements bigger and bigger.

In the past, it was low-key because of the lack of strength, but now that the strength has developed to a certain extent, it is natural to make your voice heard to fight for interests, so that you can go to the next level.

Otherwise, do you really think he likes to dance like this?

After listening to the report, Zhao Hao was extremely satisfied with the development of the territory.

Although several high-ranking interior officials are not very good in terms of ability, the advantage is that all of them can be trusted.

No, Zhao Hao now has two trustworthy players.

Suzaku + Shirasawa!

The two of them are pinched in the palm of their hands, as long as they don't cross each other's bottom line, they don't have to worry about problems at all.

Of course, Zhao Hao will not let the other party come to the storm collar, but some things can be handed over to the other party to deal with.

For example, pale collars, golden valleys, etc., can completely let them intervene.

With the development of Storm Lord, the aboriginal forces will be more and more closely watched, and they will indeed have to absorb some player power.

And whether it is Suzaku or Bai Ze, it can bring a lot of help.

Suzaku not only has the identity of the leader of the Demon Court, but also has a powerful force standing behind him, not to mention Bai Ze, who is completely super talent, and is extremely strong in both logistics and intelligence.

For example, the 'borrowing a knife to kill' plan this time was able to go so smoothly precisely because of the other party's secret cooperation.

If there is a mistake or something wrong in that link, it will be completely cold.

It can only be said that if this plan can succeed, Bai Ze will at least take half of the credit, even if the other party does not show up at all.

These two extremely useful chess pieces, how could Zhao Hao let them go.

Eat them!

With this in mind, he flew to the Storm Fortress with 500 units of the Archangel.

From afar, you can see the conspicuous 'Heavenly Divine Weapon'.

It is precisely because of this artifact that the troops are not afraid of casualties.

For example, the Golden Dragon!

Moonlight Hills had lost 20 units before, but there was no 'compensation' this time, and it was not easy to replenish normally.

But in the Storm Lord's lair, there are a full 32 units waiting to be recruited at this time.

Every seven weeks, you can harvest 16 Golden Dragons!

The yield is amazing.

This is a champion class!

Even the production of the Golden Dragon is so exaggerated, not to mention other troops, it is more than enough to easily replenish the consumption.

In the past, the territory was rushed to recruit as soon as there were troops, but now it is starting to accumulate recruitment places.

That's the change!

After entering the fortress, the archangels entered the Dragon's Blood Altar one after another, and then strengthened into the 'quasi-epic' class of Valkyries.

In addition to the skyrocketing strength, the biggest benefit is the switch of camps, and the ultimate control is back in the hands of Zhao Hao.

"Alright, let's start clearing the Scorched Rock Volcano!"

After the strengthening, Zhao Hao gave the Valkyries a new task.

"Yes, sir!"

The Valkyries spread their wings and flew away, while Zhao Hao himself flew towards the place where Turing was.

Next, he had to discuss the matter with the other party.
