Fire Elemental Dimension, Molten Altar.
A giant Teleportation Portal shrouded in a dark red glow suddenly opened in the air.
It was obvious that the Void Teleportation Portal was not stable. The ripples of space on the light gate formed by the fire element were so clear that one could feel the vibrations from a hundred miles away.
After a long while, the Void Teleportation Portal barely stabilized. Grimm dragged the Dragon Lich captive through the light gate and returned to the Molten Altar.
"Welcome back, Master!" Sensing the ripples of space, the Mother of Dark Web Spiders, Lacebis, and the cloned brain, Sauk, hurried to the light gate and greeted Grimm.
"Take care of this bastard, don't let him escape …" Grimm threw the Dragon Lich captive to the Mother of Dark Web Spiders and steadied himself. He began to carefully examine the Molten Altar before him.
At this moment, the Molten Altar had become a giant construction site.
Thousands of Engineering Magical Machines were busy near the lava lake, moving rocks, magical materials, magical alloys, and other resources. Even more creatures native to the Fire Elemental Dimension were used as laborers to flatten the ground, using volcanic rocks to build a temporary path to the center of the lava lake.
A giant metal furnace was erected by the side of the lava lake. The thick black smoke coming out of the vent almost covered the entire valley of the Molten Altar.
Magical Iron Ores from the camps outside the region were thrown into the furnace, then crushed, stirred, filtered, tempered, purified, and turned into Magical Iron Alloys that could be used in the construction of the Wizard's Pagoda.
Metal pillars that were three meters thick and twenty meters long were piled up by the side of the lake, waiting to be tossed into the lake to be used as the base of the Wizard's Pagoda after the magical patterns and Runic Spell Formations were drawn.
As the location of the Wizard's Pagoda could not be revealed, these detailed tasks could only be completed by higher-level, more intelligent Wizard Puppets. Thus, the progress of the construction was not too fast.
According to the current speed, it would take more than twenty years for the Wizard's Pagoda to be completely completed. This speed was like the speed of a turtle compared to the Silver Alliance, but for safety's sake, this was the only way.
After all, the Silver Alliance had a large number of Arcane Magi, and the stones, magical materials, and runic spell formations they used were all semi-finished products that had been prepared beforehand. All they needed to do was to assemble these items at the base of the tower and fuse them into a whole.
If Grimm wanted to build the Wizard's Pagoda, he would have to carve the Magical Symbols and Wizard Formations on every stone and door. With the scale of the Wizard's Pagoda he had envisioned, the workload would be so great that it would drive someone crazy.
To be honest, if Split-Brain Sauk could not multitask and control a dozen Wizard Puppets at the same time to draw the Wizard Formation, the time needed to build the tower would have been much longer.
Grimm slowly scanned the entire construction site and grasped the general situation. Seeing that everything was going according to plan, he nodded in satisfaction.
"How is it? Is the project going well? If you have any problems, just tell me. Since I'm here, I'll solve them for you! "
Hearing Grim's question, Sauk forced a smile and said, "Master, the temperature of the lava lake is too high. Ordinary engineering equipment will melt immediately. Even the special fire-resistant magical equipment wouldn't be able to last long in there. That's why the construction site is in desperate need of a group of big guys that can move freely in the lava lake … "
"Oh?" Grimm focused and thought for a moment. In the Fire Elemental Dimension, only the Molten Core Giants fit Sauk's description. The others were either too powerful or too few in number. Grimm quickly turned to the Mother of Dark Web Spiders, asking in a low voice, "Are there any tribes of Molten Core Giants nearby? It's best if they have between two to five hundred members. As for their strength … Level 2 should be enough! "
The Mother of Dark Web Spiders thought for a moment, then said softly, "I remember that there's a tribe of Molten Core Giants about seven days southeast from here. There are about four hundred of them, and their leader is a Level 3 Magician."
"Yes, that's it then! Find someone to lead the way for me, I'll be right back … "
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Grimm set off with a Level 2 Elite Dark Web Spider.
Half a month later, Grimm returned to the valley with a group of four hundred Molten Core Giants. It could be seen that the Molten Core Giants came in different sizes, with adults and juveniles. They should be a relatively complete tribe.
It was a pity that the Type 3 Molten Core Giant's 11-metre-tall body was a little crooked, and there were obvious traces of external force on it, as if it had been forcefully disassembled and pieced back together. The energy aura it exuded was almost at the level of a Grade 2 Giant.
"Sauk, this is the helper I've found for you. It's called Nasta, and it'll be responsible for building the tower in the lava lake from now on! You have to hurry up and make sure they don't slack off and finish the job as soon as possible! "Grimm assigned the group of Molten Core Giants to Sauk as soon as he returned.
Cross-brain Sauk looked at the big guys behind Grimm and immediately smiled.
The stone used to build the Wizard's Pagoda was three to five square meters and weighed several tons. Normal Fire Creatures or Engineering Magical Machinery could not move it, not to mention that they had to build piles and reinforce the foundation of the tower at the bottom of the lava lake that was fifty to sixty meters deep.
It was impossible to carry out this kind of work in this kind of environment without a decent helper.
Now that they had the Molten Core Giants, everything could proceed smoothly according to plan!
Of course, when Grimm was not paying attention, Cross-brain Sauk secretly dragged the Level 3 Molten Core Giant leader Nasta to the side and curiously asked about the process of "recruiting" it.
Nasta almost wept bitterly as he recounted the painful past of how the Lord transformed into a hundred-meter-tall flame giant and beat up all the Molten Core Giant warriors on the ground.
As the leader of the Molten Core Giants, Nasta resisted even more fiercely, which made the Lord so angry that he tore Nasta's body apart. If not for the fact that Nasta still had some brains and surrendered early on, the Lord might have instantly destroyed the entire Molten Core Tribe in a fit of anger.
Actually, this was the advantage of the flame creatures.
Although they were usually violent and tyrannical, once they surrendered, they would become loyal and would never rebel. If they were not willing to accept your rule, they would only challenge you face to face and decide their fate by winning or losing. They would never play any tricks behind your back, nor would they pretend to be obedient but oppose you in secret.
Therefore, even though Grimm's act of kidnapping and robbing the Molten Core Giants was very rough, and he did not promise them any material benefits. However, the moment the Molten Core Giants lowered their heads, they had already become Grimm's most loyal and resolute subordinates.
In the fire elemental plane, whoever had the biggest fist was the king.
This … was the creed of power etched in the souls of all fire elemental creatures!
Simple, violent, but with a hint of cuteness …
The arrival of the Molten Core Giants added hundreds of towering giants to the construction site.
The Molten Core Giant's body was not made of pure foreign flames like other flame creatures. Instead, its body was made of huge pieces of molten rock, and inside it flowed crimson magma with a temperature of nearly a thousand degrees.
Their special structure allowed them to have a strong body and violent strength that other low-level flame creatures did not have. It was perfect to use them as laborers!
All the Molten Core Giants carried the thick metal pillars and walked into the lava lake step by step. Soon, their bodies were engulfed by the dark red, sticky, and terrifying lava.
In such a harsh environment, other magic creatures and engineering magic machines made of high-resistance magic alloys could not work normally. However, they moved freely like fish in water. Not only did they not get burned by the lava, but they also became more energetic.
At the bottom of the lava lake, where the temperature was almost two thousand degrees Celsius, the molten giants were stepping on the soft, molten rocks and thrusting metal pillars that were engraved with magic runes and spell formations into the depths of the rocks one after another.
Strangely enough, the magic veins on the surface of these inconspicuous metal pillars lit up as soon as they came into contact with the boiling lava. An invisible Magical Force Field spread out, pushing the surrounding liquid lava further away.
When the 128 metal pillars were in place in a ring, the magic force field that they gathered took shape, opening up an empty space with a radius of nearly a kilometer in the middle of the lava lake.
As soon as the cavity appeared, the Engineering Magic Machines that had been waiting for a long time swarmed in and started working like a swarm of ants.
With Grim's current status as a Great Wizard, he would not use the cheap volcanic rock to build his private Wizard Pagoda. The stones piled up like a small hill by the lava lake were not ordinary. They were Fire Crystals, which were rare even in the fire elemental plane.
In the fire elemental plane, Fire Crystals were equivalent to Magical Crystals in the Wizard World. They were a valuable, high-end item.
But now, they had become the base for Grim to build his own Wizard Pagoda!
Piece by piece, the Fire Crystals were thrown into the empty space of the lava lake. The engineering magic machines were busy piling them up according to specific locations and shapes. As they built the pagoda, they also carved complicated and mysterious magical lines and Wizard Runes on the base of the pagoda.
Strengthening Runes, Defense Spell Formations, Energy Nodes, Energy Conduction, Control Spell Formations, Magical Circuits … Every Fire Crystal was a small Magical Circuit, as well as a small Energy Node. When they were linked together, they formed a Runic Spell Formation that was getting larger and larger.
Etching the rune lines into the grooves, filling them with Magical Mithril, which had the best Magical Conductivity, and embedding magical gems with different functions at the key points … Only the tireless engineering magic machines and fire elemental creatures could do such a complicated job.
