The pace of time moves forward little by little, neither deliberately speeding up for those who waste it, nor deliberately slowing down for those who cherish it.

Before he knew it, Xia Duo had spent the last day of the year 837 in Severton, and if it weren't for Lowe telling him that the heavy snow that had lasted for half a month had finally stopped today, it is estimated that he would not have noticed that time had quietly come to the new year.

The design of the independent Arganfire device has been changed several times, and the practical device has not been completed in 837, but with the final plan already determined, Xia Duo believes that it will be completed next year.

……

838 year of the color calendar, January.

The Northland Alliance held closed consultations in Everska for nearly a week on clarifying the territorial demarcation of the Northland states.

The demarcation of the territory of the color resistance has almost become the focus of consultation and discussion among the representatives of various countries, and the most critical issue is the difference between the declared scope and the actual control range.

The interests of Nessreel, Comanso, and Yeerlan are almost intransitive, which seems to have been somewhat related to Akola and Evresca as supporting characters who are completely speechless.

Naturally, the week-long negotiations were fruitless, and it was only that Yerlan and Ilfarang had negotiated a preliminary demarcation plan, and whether it could be feasible or not depended on the next consultation.

At the same time, within Netheril, the Great Exploration Movement has risen again, unlike before, which was more in line with the princess's ascension ceremony, this time it is related to the actual territorial interests, and its enthusiasm may be called "the most in history"!

The new god Shia Idas, that is, Princess Thea, even sent down an oracle "All the people of Nase, open up and be justified, and protect the innocent".

Even ordinary people, as long as they feel that they can, can go to Severton to get a document of development, go to the unknown territory, and open up their own territory.

……

February.

The swarming pioneers have set up temporary bases in the middle of the eastern forest, during which the archmage has summoned a rain of meteors to quickly wipe out the forest in the wind and snow.

Although this move caused strong dissatisfaction on the Comanso side, with the support of the Severant Parliament, there was no vicious conflict in the end.

As a result, the new frontier across the river from the Konchi Plain, officially named "Cologne Plain", is rapidly taking shape at an astonishing and exciting speed!

In the south of the Cologne Plain, there is also a pioneer near Lake Mehter, but not long ago, the news that Xia Duo has become a Grand Arcanist has just spread throughout Netheriel, and most of the pioneers here are cautious to use Lake Mehter as the boundary, only to the north, and rarely set foot in the south.

To this end, Nia sent a large number of adventurers to establish a temporary base in the forests south of Lake Mecht, and at the same time established a trading market on the eastern shore of Lake Mecht, which was a response to the pioneers' sensibility.

As for the island in the middle of the lake, the last struggle of the misty lock is all here, if Xia Duo is not busy, he may come over to comb and repair the magic net, but at this time he is busy with the independent arcane fire device, and he can't spare time at all.

I can only ask Saville to operate secretly, so as not to be preempted.

In the north of the Cologne Plain, the lords of the southern part of the core area of Naishi have also made efforts to continue to open up to the south, trying to border the Cologne Plain as quickly as possible, and the most eye-catching performance is the Verdant Tower Alliance.

The Grand Arcanist is in charge, controlling the overall situation, and the efficiency of developing territories far exceeds that of ordinary territories.

And the Rodney Lord, who was originally very eager for the territory, under the leadership of the new and old generations of Rodney Lords, the development efficiency can also rank among the pioneers.

As far south, south of the southern border.

Savile personally set up a large number of semi-permanent monitoring points starting from the Wolf God Mountain and going all the way south to the southernmost part of the Junjun Mountain Range.

It can also be regarded as a response to the pioneering call of the Severton Council and the princess to fix the southeastern border for Nesser.

……

In March, the snow and ice have not disappeared.

While the negotiations between the surface states over the division of their territories continued, the underground war ushered in a major turning point.

On the second battlefield of Amalinda, the High Mages of Yerlan and Comanso and the Hammer Warriors of Danzo annihilated the twelve High Mages of Drow and inflicted heavy damage on the incarnation of Drow's God of Vengeance.

Of course, the cost of achieving such a result is also very high, in addition to the loss of personnel of the main participating parties, Amalinda's territory in the dark region has been completely destroyed, if they do not go to the surface, it can be said that they have lost contact with Danzo.

Of course, for Amalinda, the destruction of the territory space alone is already a very small price, which means that they can leave the battlefield from now on.

On the other side, the demon armies on the battlefield of Danzo began to lose control after the defeat of Drow on the battlefield of Amalinda, which was a sign of Drow's retreat.

After all, demons can be summoned at any time, and the Drow priests and drow mages who know how to summon and control demons are the real war potential.

But since it was a joint operation, Danzo's side naturally would not easily let Drow's true war potential leave, and Danzo's King Pastid attacked decisively, dragging the retreating Drow, and inflicting a lot of damage on Drow together with the High Mage and the Holy Hammer Warrior who returned from the battlefield of Amalinda.

It's just that he didn't be able to annihilate the high mage of Drow like he did in the second battlefield, after all, Danzo is not Amalinda, and it is impossible to agree to the cost of territorial space destruction.

What's more, Drow, who has suffered a loss once, may not fall twice in the same place.

But as long as the drow is driven away, the underground war can be over for the time being, but the elven support is more focused on high-end forces, and when the drow is defeated, the elven mages almost don't look at the demon army that has been scattered, and return to the station, just waiting to confirm the situation of drow, they can return to the surface.

The demons controlled by Drow are naturally "fearless" to rush to death, but without Drow's control, it is conceivable that the follow-up purge will probably be a headache for Danzo!

……

In April, the cold winter continues.

At this time of year, the temperature has begun to warm up, and the snow and ice have begun to become fragile, and by the time of mid-April, all the ice and snow have melted away.

But this year, I'm afraid it won't be until May, the real "snowmelt month", that the snow melt will begin!

By the beginning of April, Drow had retreated to the deeper shadows, and the underground war was definitely over, and by mid-April, the aftermath of the war had finally reached the surface.

The most intuitive thing is that the price of war-related materials has begun to drop in general, and the order for the Demon Slaying Talisman of Lord Harran, the cash cow of the Tower of Time, has officially ended.

At the same time, the main focus of the countries on the surface was finally returning to the surface, and consultations on the demarcation of territorial boundaries were once again on the agenda.

Of course, the independent Olympic fire device project on Xia Duo's side has also come to an end, and the official version of the independent Olympic fire device 1.0 is about to come out.
