As soon as Siegel heard that Irint was coming, he basically guessed what was going to happen.

In the two years since the top of Mora reopened, Siegel and Elint have not seen each other, but they have never been in contact, so Siegel knows his teacher's situation. The Gem Clan suffered heavy losses in the battle with the goblins, and a considerable number of young and promising dwarven warriors died under the muskets of the goblins, and the Gem Clan also lost its original position and began to enter a stage of recuperation. Although Elint became the first spokesperson of the family, he was inevitably a little disheartened because both of his sons died in the war. For the Dwarven King to start the battle with the goblins again, he was always a little worried in his heart. Perhaps more dwarves would die in battle, and in vain, and he was afraid to see that again.

This resistance led to the Gem Clan not keen to go into battle directly, but to focus more on the rear, making weapons and armor and modifying goblin muskets. At present, six or seven out of ten of the firearms equipped at the top of Mora are produced by the Jewel Clan. Although the status of the artisan in the dwarven race is also very high, it is still slightly inferior to the warrior, so both inside and outside the gem clan, there is a lot of criticism about Elint's conservatism. So the old dwarf simply did not leave the family residence, and almost cut off all contact with the outside world - except for correspondence with Siegel.

If he can come here in person this time, it must be a big event at the top of Mora!

The relationship between Heim and Mora's Peak is not far away, but this year's year has become close again with the resumption of trade routes, so I also have some understanding of the current situation of Mora's Peak. As a bridgehead for the attack on Earth, there was a time when the dwarves gathered their strength and launched several counter-attacks under the cover of the dwarven sages. Regain the once lost base. What happened later is less clear. Legend has it that they are still at a stalemate near the base. Siegel scoffed at this rigid castle positional battle. It has been repeatedly reminded that the goal should be to destroy the goblins, not to occupy a certain piece of land. But the stubbornness of the dwarves made him helpless, they were not enthusiastic and capable of learning new tactics, and Siegel did not want to send the new knight team led by Heim right now.

Something must have gone wrong with the war, and the earthquake that had just occurred had made it clear that the goblins were able to influence the world on this side of the crystal wall. Siegel came to this conclusion after pondering it, and immediately sent a command: the small council of Heim must be convened at once. All the lords, knights, and armies of the Heim Territory are to be put into combat readiness and ready to obey orders, and the Chamber of Commerce is to be summoned at once, and according to the earlier agreement, slightly below the current market price, to sweep away all the goods in their hands that can be used for war preparation, in case of emergency. The Combined Battle Mage enters the magic ship, and the mana pool begins to charge. The other mages stepped up to build parts for Heim's magic ship, halting all other non-combat orders.

The Golem Maker also received an order from Siegel to begin producing the Electromagnetic Cannon Golem. Using Nakhus's plasma technology, the Golem Maker has been able to carve the lines of the magic circle on the assembly line. Creates the body of a golem. Once they're done, Siegel only needs to cast spells. By activating the golems one by one and giving them a stable soul fire structure, you can create a batch of golem armies.

The actual final production capacity is only related to Siegel's spell ability. As long as his body can hold up and his spirit can stay focused, then the golem will continue to take shape. Siegel had ordered five thousand miniature teleportation circles from the Federation Spell Department early on, and was only able to deflect small and light objects by less than a meter. Mage Wilwood wondered what the order was for, but took it with some doubt. The miniature circle was mounted on the one-meter-square golem and became an accessory to their main weapon, the electromagnetic cannon.

Siegel originally wanted to continue to improve the design of the golems to make them more efficient, but it seems that what is needed for the moment is a realistic combat force that can deal with unexpected situations. He had to remove the research on levitation and flight abilities, and began to produce this spider-shaped electromagnetic cannon golem. In addition to the barrel, it has a pair of sharp claws (the other six are soft claws with adsorption ability), as well as the ability to eat steel to repair the wear and tear of its own circle and restore minor injuries.

Since this is a golem, Siegel can install Silent Runestones directly on them, ensuring that they move and shoot without sound. There is a default command in their bodies to try to return to the Golem as long as they don't receive a new order in a month. Between silence and immediate command, Siegel couldn't find a way to have both, so he had to take a compromise.

After the lord gave the order, the entire Heim realm began to move. The earthquake woke everyone up, and many people were still at a loss. But as the detailed instructions were issued, everyone gradually stopped thinking and began to concentrate on the things at hand.

This was followed by a third, fourth, and fifth earthquakes, perfectly spaced by an hour. The intensity of each earthquake is exactly the same as the place of origin, and if it weren't for the problem with the crystalline barrier, Siegel would never have believed it.

The Mir Core can provide almost infinite elemental energy, which is a prerequisite for a large-scale magic array, so the entire city of Myr is shrouded in magical protection. Various surveillance, defense, attack, and detection spells continued to work, and as soon as Irint entered the range, Siegel immediately noticed it, and teleported himself directly to meet him.

The dwarf's hair and beard were gray, and his body was thinner than before. He came lightly, with only a thin leather coat, and probably saved even the time to put on the full body armor, or to save the physical strength of the land kbolizard? He was "one man and four horses", and his mounts were all tired and panting, but fortunately Siegel found him, grabbed Irint, and led him back to the city of Myr.

"Elint, don't worry, I'm here!" Siegel helped the dwarf through the teleportation stun as he motioned for the minion golem to deliver a thirst-quenching drink. "What's going on at the Crystal Wall Barrier?"

Irint gasped a few times and looked up at Siegel. He wasn't surprised that the mage could guess that there was something wrong with the crystal wall, but he hadn't seen the other party for a long time, and he was very excited. He hugged Siegel hard and patted him the back. Until the excitement in my heart has calmed down for a while. before letting him go.

"I'll talk about it later. I'll start with the main ones. Elent tugged at her beard and said, "The goblins have used some kind of bomb, and the power is so powerful that it has affected this side of the crystal wall. The dwarven sage's barrier is being rapidly depleted, and it is expected that the original seven-year closure period will be greatly reduced. The Dwarven King wanted to be able to evacuate the non-fighting Dwarves from the Top of Mora, one direction was north, near Waterdeep, and the other direction was Heim Territory. ”

"Old and weak, women and children?" Siegel asked.

"That's right. It would be too dangerous for them to stay near the crystal barrier, and it would also distract the warriors. ”

"Long-term resettlement or further transfer?"

"It depends. My advice is to leave the young dwarves in the New World. While receiving training, you can also do some craftsman work that you can. It is best for the old man and the female dwarf to return to the Eastern Continent, but there is also a crystal wall passage over there, so I don't know if it is safe or not. ”

"At the moment, it seems that the barrier in the Eastern Continent is very calm, and the goblins don't seem to have discovered it yet. "The crystal wall passage of the federation is also well hidden, not to mention that it has not been dug up all along, so naturally no one will find out. Siegel said, "Can you tell me the total number? I'm prepared." ”

"Two hundred and fifty thousand, half in the north and south directions. "The Top of Mora will take care of their food, but there will also be some nearby purchases. ”

"Okay. If you can guarantee food for more than a year, then I can keep all the 250,000. ”

Elint jumped to her feet. His beard and hair stood on end: "Siegel, don't hold on! That's a population of 250,000, and not many of them are young!"

"Huh, isn't Mora's Top providing food?" Siegel made an exaggerated expression of surprise, and seeing that Elliette was still very serious, he restrained himself: "No kidding, no kidding." The Heim Territory can house the 250,000 dwarves at the top of Mora, which is no joke, but the top of Mora really has to come up with food. It's not like a stone, you always have to dig and dig, you have to prepare in advance. ”

Elint frowned, looked Siegel up and down, then lowered her head in thought. The reason why he was asked to go out in person was to hope that the relationship between the two could play a lubricating role.

"Elinte, you can rest assured about this matter. When I say that I can settle down, I don't just say that Heim has such strength. Of course, I wouldn't have said that if you hadn't come in person, or any other dwarf. Siegel said to him, "Two hundred and fifty thousand dwarves can alleviate the considerable employment gap in my Heim territory. I have many workshops ......"

"Wait a minute, Siegel. "There aren't many craftsmen here, not the kind of people who can make armor, weapons, or dwarven muskets. ”

"If there is such a person, I will welcome it, but if there is no one, it is nothing. Aren't the dwarves in charge of growing mushrooms and making good wine among the dwarves? With their strength, it's always okay to help me manage the farmland, right? I don't need a skilled craftsman, it's always okay to be able to operate the mill's waterwheel and manage the toaster? I'm in a situation where I have an empty production workshop, but I don't have enough manpower. I can't get all the peasants in my realm to leave the fields and go to work in the workshops, can I? ”

"Did you have such a plan for a long time?"

Siegel nodded, he had nothing to hide from the dwarf Elinth: "Although humans are quite capable of giving birth, they can't stand the speed at which other races start wars. Counting on his fingers, first there was a fight with the orcs, then a small civil war, then the elves. Finally, everything was on the right track, and when Heim could cultivate, the dwarves dug a hole for the whole world. Alas...... So I had to come up with all sorts of ideas to keep my Heim collar from falling to his death in this pit. I can make many things with magic, but I can't make life, and I have to rely on the land and animal husbandry. So I was hoarding food for a long time and had the idea of increasing the population. The Top of Mora, the Elven Forest, and even the Orcs and Orcs of the North, I have a plan. ”

"Siegel, I warn you, don't do human trafficking!" "Elint slammed her fists into each other, "Even if you're an archmage, I can't beat you right now, but I'll still do my best to stop you from doing that!"

"Ha, I wouldn't be like that, you think too much. As long as my Heim collar is better, people will naturally come one after another. It's a bit impersonal to say that - when others are bad, Heim has an advantage - and that's to be expected. Siegel hugged Irint hard and pressed his whole body weight on: "It's so nice to see you again." ”

Elliette rubbed her eyes and wiped away the dampness from the wind and sand blowing on the way. "Alright, Alright, Grand Lord Siegel. If you agree, I'll have to go back to the top of Mora and report the news!"

"Hey, you're not going to ride back again, are you?" Siegel grabbed him, "You wait another two hours, and you'll probably get a rough plan." Then I'll take you back with teleportation. Siegel said, "This time I'm going to see with my own eyes what the crystal wall barrier is like. (To be continued.) )
