The Outer Islands. Mordor City.
Today, Mordor City was a little lively because many residents of Mordor City gathered near the central square. At the moment, they were looking at the center of the square curiously. In the center of the square was a group of gray dwarves gathered together. They looked ragged and wore animal skin clothes. They looked like savages with disheveled hair and long beards. Around the square was a team of drows, staring at them coldly at the moment. Not far away, there were priests of the temple who seemed to be discussing how to settle these gray dwarves.
Suddenly coming to a strange environment, these gray dwarves also looked a little uneasy.
There were not many of them, only about two or three hundred of them. At the moment, they were surrounded by a group of residents of Mordor City. Although they saw the drows from the Underdark, these gray dwarves still looked nervous. The residents of Mordor City were well-informed, but their curious nature had not changed much. Many of them saw the gray dwarves for the first time. Maybe because of the confidence of the residents of Mordor, they were not afraid of these legendary evil races. Instead, they looked around curiously.
The drows were much more evil than the gray dwarves in the legends.
You see, they were quite obedient in Mordor City. They were tamed by Sir Søren and got along well with other races.
It was said.
One of the drows fell in love with a pure half-elf girl, and their relationship was blessed by the bishop of the great temple.
This was Mordor City.
It was not the same as any city in the material plane!
"Okay!"
The drows came to the gray dwarves with a cold expression and said in a deep voice, "His Excellency the high priest has arranged your residence!"
"From now on, you are the residents of Mordor City."
"The target is to live in the blacksmith shop next to the barracks. If you have enough contributions in the future, you can also buy your own business in Mordor City."
After a few words, the drows ordered the gray dwarves to set off.
After all, the grey dwarfs were a foreign race. It would take a little bit of effort for the residents of Mordor City to accept them. Therefore, they could only live near the barracks for the time being, so they could be monitored and learn the rules of Mordor City. The nature of the grey dwarves was not very good, but the laws of Mordor could tame them. Now the drow instructor in front of him was thinking about how to find an opportunity to beat these grey dwarves. Let them know that they had to be honest if they wanted to live in Mordor City.
At the other side.
The figure of the high priestess was sitting on the throne in front of the temple. Around her were high-ranked priests and bishops. She looked around and slowly said, "This is the arrangement of my Lord."
"These Duergar are the labor force needed for the future development of Mordor. From now on, I'll leave them to you to keep an eye on. There's still a group of grey dwarves I haven't brought back yet. "
"In the future, the number of grey dwarves in Mordor City will be about a thousand."
"You need to pay more attention here, don't let them have any conflicts with the residents of Mordor City."
At the other side.
In the Shadow Plane Laboratory in Mordor City, Gloria also quickly received the news.
So, she immediately found the Fallen Witch who was studying and said, "Mother. Søren has sent people to get the grey dwarves back. When do you think we can start letting these grey dwarves forge materials for us? "
A Floating-Space Tower needed a lot of metal ingots.
These little things couldn't always be done by the two legendary witches. Mordor City itself didn't have good blacksmiths, and it took a lot of energy to cultivate them.
The grey dwarves were born to be good blacksmiths.
With the help of these grey dwarves, not only would the progress of the Floating-Space Tower speed up, but even the output of the Golem Factory would increase.
Now there were thousands of Golem Puppets in Mordor City.
…
Wind Spear Hills.
After a night of indulgence, Søren felt good. After explaining some things to Adele Isabella, he was ready to return to Mordor City. He didn't have much nostalgia for the two beautiful noble maids. For a high and mighty true god, these things were just pleasure for him to relax occasionally. As a god, he always had a lot of things to deal with.
It was already March.
The Goddess of Magic hadn't fallen yet, but no one knew her whereabouts. Even Søren couldn't find her on his own initiative.
Something big would happen this month.
That was the Demon Lord of the Abyss, Dagon, one of the ancient Orbis demons. After the other demons' first two attacks failed, Dagon began to infiltrate the sea domain of the material plane.
This action affected the entire overseas area.
Søren had participated in this war and also received a mission from the Sea Temple.
Because the battle took place in the sea area, the impact on the land was not very serious, so most of the other gods were just watching. However, the overseas area was Søren's territory. If Dagon was allowed to cause damage, Mordor City's maritime trade would definitely be affected. This time, he needed to plan in advance to reduce Mordor City's investment in maritime trade. After the Goddess of the Sea and Dagon had a winner, he would consider rearranging many overseas routes.
There was about half a month before the war broke out.
The Son of Dagon would appear again, and there would be more than one because this ancient Demon Lord had many children.
The Naga Sirens would be the most severely affected race.
The first two demon attacks didn't affect them much, but no one could be alone in the Avatar Crisis. This time, the Naga Sirens would have to bear the impact by themselves.
…
The City of Wealth.
In a hidden tavern, Ugly Monkey looked at his men in front of him and said slowly, "Are you sure this information was taken from the Shadow Thief?"
In front of him was a middle-aged man with a cold expression. He was dressed well and said, "Yes."
"I have sent people to investigate."
"We did find a lot of members of the Shadow Thief. But the internal security is tight, and we have no way to infiltrate. "
Ugly Monkey's face showed a hint of excitement and said slowly, "We finally found these guys who hide their heads and tails."
"Leave and send people to rule the temple."
"Ask them to send assassins over! Maybe we can find the Shadow Thief's nest this time. "
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes. I'll do it now. "
After the man in front of him left, Ugly Monkey's expression gradually calmed down and murmured, "If I can kick out the Shadow Thief's branch this time, then I will have made a great contribution."
"Maybe my Lord Søren will give me some rewards!"
Thinking of this, Ugly Monkey's eyes suddenly became fiery. As a profession close to the legendary realm, there were not many things he wanted.
He hoped that he could go one step further, and it would be best if he could get divinity and divine power.
Because Ugly Monkey hoped that if he died in the future, he could get the status of [God's Servant] in Søren's Kingdom.
…
One day later.
Søren returned to Modor City. The high priest had brought back some gray dwarves, which was undoubtedly good news. Because this meant that Modor City had the ability to produce its own military equipment.
City Lord's Mansion.
After Søren returned to Modor City, he saw Gloria for the first time.
But what surprised him a little was that Gloria used to spend most of her time in the laboratory in the Shadow Plane, but this time she was quite leisurely dealing with the affairs and documents of Modor City in the hall. There was also a cup of black tea from the Eastern Kingdom next to her.
"Hey."
Søren glanced at the northern witch in front of him, then walked behind her and was ready to take her into his arms. He said slowly, "How's the progress of the Floating-Space Tower? How do you have time to sit here and drink tea today? "
Gloria turned her head and looked at Søren. She smiled mischievously and said softly, "Take a guess."
A beauty in his arms.
Søren had just held Gloria in his arms, and immediately felt that something was wrong. He was surprised and said, "This! … This is! … No wonder! … No wonder! … "
It felt a little different.
Although there seemed to be no difference, Søren immediately noticed something was wrong after close contact.
This was not Gloria!
In other words, this was not Gloria's body.
"Simulacrum!?"
Søren raised his head in surprise and looked at Gloria, who was blushing in front of him. He put his hand directly under her long skirt, and then kept groping. The more he groped, the more surprised he was. He murmured, "It's so magical!"
"This feels so real!"
Gloria's breathing was a little short, and her beautiful face was already blushing. She whispered, "Simulacrum itself is similar to [True Mirror Image], so the avatar created is real."
Søren's fingertips turned, and he had touched the soft and towering fullness from the skirt. He fiddled with it a few times, and he saw Gloria gasping.
He was in disbelief at the moment, and whispered, "Even this feeling can be simulated? It seems that I have underestimated the effect of Simulacrum! "
This was the avatar of a god!
The effect of Simulacrum was much stronger than Projection. The two were not on the same level at all.
"How much of the spell's power is retained?"
Søren did not take back his hand, but he continued to play with the two white balls and said, "The magic equipment on the body can't be simulated, right?"
Gloria's breathing became more rapid, and she gently shook her head, "Magic equipment can't."
"But 80% of the spellcasting power is retained. The avatar I created can cast spells up to the eighth circle. "
"But."
"The spells that can be cast can only be those that are remembered by my body."
This was already very good.
After hearing this, Søren fell into deep thought. It seemed that he was thinking about the other uses of Simulacrum's power.
…
At the same time.
In the experiment in the Shadow Plane.
Gloria and Fallen Witch were working on the production of a large floating ring. Suddenly, Gloria's breathing became chaotic, and even the control of the spell fluctuated slightly.
Everyone present was a legendary witch. Corinna, the fallen witch, immediately sensed something unusual. She asked, "What's wrong?"
"Why is your face a little red?"
Gloria looked at her mother with a guilty conscience, and then said, "Søren is back. I was talking to him just now, and I was a little distracted. "
Fallen Witch seemed to think of something. She looked at her daughter meaningfully, and then whispered, "Don't be distracted."
"If the production of this large floating ring fails, I'm afraid it will take a long time."
"What new tricks do you young people want to play? You'd better wait until nighttime to try them out!"
Gloria's face suddenly turned red.
She opened her mouth to explain something, but found that there was no way to explain it. The more she tried to explain, the worse the situation would become. So, she directly canceled the effect of Simulacrum.
…
The mayor's mansion.
Søren was just holding Gloria and studying the differences between the avatars created by Simulacrum. He touched them for a while and found that almost all aspects were the same. There were no changes at all in size and curves. But when he stretched out two fingers to explore whether there were any changes inside, Gloria in his arms suddenly dissipated in the wind, turned into magic energy and disappeared in front of him.
The effect of Simulacrum was canceled.
He didn't know whether Gloria canceled the effect of the spell on her own initiative, or the spell's duration was up.
Søren didn't care very much.
Anyway, this kind of thing could be studied slowly. Multitasking was difficult for mortals, but it was easy for Søren.
He himself had a demon avatar.
If he succeeded in mastering Simulacrum, then he could control three avatars at the same time.
The demon avatar would have about 70% of his strength, and Simulacrum could retain up to 80% of his strength. As long as Søren could control it with his mind, coupled with the strength of his original body, it would be a total combat power!
One person could beat up a group of people.
…
"My Lord!"
A middle-aged priest wearing an archbishop's robe came in and bowed respectfully to Søren. He then said, "The Lurkers have found traces of the Shadow Thieves."
"If we can follow the clues, we might be able to find their nest."
Søren's spirit was lifted when he heard this. He then said, "Very good."
"Send more people over immediately."
"Ask the Church to send a group of high-grade priests to help them! If you find any information related to the Shadow Lord, inform me immediately. "
The middle-aged priest bowed and left.
Søren stood in place and thought for a moment. Then he sent out two magic messages. "We found clues about the Shadow Lord."
"Prepare for battle."
The two magic messages were sent. One was to Princess Royal, and the other was to [Ascendant] Eugene.
Only these two were qualified to fight against the Shadow Lord!
…
(PS: It's still a two-in-one chapter. Simulacrum's effect was originally on the body, but it's gone now. I'll explain it to you first. I'll write it later when I have time.)
