"Third update, one more update."
The resources listed by Salin were enough to build a brand new Daliang City, and a truly all-magical city at that. The value of the materials needed to draw up the magic matrix could not be estimated in gold.
The main materials used to build cities were stone and wood, but the construction of Daliang City clearly used more metals. Alchemy City could not produce so many metals. Perhaps Sacred Rock City could gather enough materials from their warehouses, but that was not something that could be done in a day or two.
The two messengers frowned and looked at Salin.
Salin smiled and said, "I know that there are a lot of materials, and even the empire cannot gather them in a short time. But we can write an IOU. I believe that the things under Daliang City will not disappoint you.
The two messengers obviously understood this. Even the Stone God Clan that rushed out were precious materials. The people of the Vatican would rather die all over the ground to hold on.
Not to mention the Vatican, if they were in control of the situation, wouldn't they do the same?
The two Magic Shooters admitted that Salin had convinced them.
"Make a new contract scroll. We can make the decision," the two messengers said to Salin at the same time.
As messengers, before coming to Daliang City, they had already obtained relative authority and signed a contract with the city. While Salin's request was a little scary, it was still acceptable.
Rex's previous insistence was all for this condition. When Salin rewrote the contract, he began to discuss with the two messengers which items could be obtained immediately.
This discussion took a few more hours. Also, there were some things that the two messengers could not be sure of. They still had to use the magic matrix to contact Alchemy City and Sacred Rock City.
The first batch of materials from Daliang City was used to build a large teleportation matrix.
This large teleportation matrix was built in the east of the city, a mile away from the city wall. Everyone had the magic blueprint for a large teleportation matrix, but something like this had not happened in thousands of years.
Salin needed a large teleportation matrix because when necessary, Alchemy City would send a large number of Magic Shooters over. And Salin agreed to use the resources of the three parties to first complete the magic net to ensure the safety of the Magic Shooters. In the magic net, the combat power of the Magic Shooters would not only not decrease, but would instead increase to the peak.
Salin did not hide the fact that he wanted to train Manipulators. However, for Alchemy City, while Manipulators were a very strong support in battle, they were not as useful as Mages. There were mages everywhere in Alchemy City. If it wasn't for such an environment, no one would have even considered building a magic net.
There were a large number of Magic Towers in the city to support the mages. The Weave's consumption wasn't small, but its purpose was to allow ordinary people to cast magic. What benefit would it bring to the mages?
Even Salin himself did not like the Weave too much, because once humans relied on the Weave, many would not even consider cultivating the Magic Strings. There was a huge difference between Mana Controllers and Mages. Without the Weave, Mana Controllers were trash. Apart from a brain full of incantations, there was no other value.
However, only those who had truly cultivated the Devil Flux Technique understood that relying on external objects was ultimately futile. Without the Magic Strings, a Magician would not be able to improve their physique and obtain a long lifespan.
What is lifespan? It was time. Only those who lived long enough could learn more knowledge.
If a Magician could only live for a hundred years, then there would be no more Magicians above the ninth level.
However, in such an environment, only the Weave could defend against the enemy's attacks. After the contract was signed, the people of Alchemy City tried to communicate with Salin, hoping to obtain the blueprints for the Magic Furnace.
Salin declined politely, but he still proposed a condition, which was the large magic amplifiers.
If Alchemy City could provide a set of large magic amplifiers, Salin would provide the blueprints for three types of Magic Furnace. The emissary could not make the decision. The value of a large magic amplifier was huge. It could turn a city into the strongest fortress in the world and increase the combat power of a Magician by more than three times.
The problem was that no one had the ability to create large magic amplifiers. Even Jason, who had mastered Water Flame Alchemy, could not. Salin's price was too high, and Alchemy City could not afford it.
However, the mages of Alchemy City were not disappointed. Salin's high demand meant that the matter could still be discussed.
After the large teleportation matrix was built, the resources that Salin needed were continuously transported to Daliang City. Nelis had already secretly transferred Rex's six hundred thousand elite soldiers away and replaced them with mercenaries. The money for these mercenaries was naturally provided by Alchemy City and Holy Rock City.
The interior of Daliang City was quickly remodeled. Other than the core palace, the other places were completely rebuilt into a complicated fortress. The construction of the Weave was faster than Salin had imagined. The alchemy factories of Metatlin City were not slow in creating Magic Furnaces. In the past, they lacked materials. Now that the materials were available and the supply was almost unlimited, the Magic Furnaces were sent to Daliang City in large quantities.
Moreover, a portion was intercepted by Metatlin City. According to the rate of waste during the creation of magic equipment, Metatlin City intercepted at least a quarter of the Magic Furnaces.
These Magic Furnaces were used to create warships and large puppets.
Alchemy City naturally did not care about this. Even if an Alchemist wanted to create equipment for others, they had to intercept a portion of the materials, and the interceptions were much higher than in Metatlin City.
The reason why Metatlin City could keep so many Mana Furnaces was because they had Jason, a level-10 Mage, and he had level-10 Water Flame Alchemy. When he created low-level Mana Furnaces, it was almost impossible for them to be scrapped.
Salin gave the blueprints of the metal towers to Alchemy City. The factories in Alchemy City quickly created a large number of metal parts and sent them to Daliang City. Many metal towers were built in Daliang City.
These metal towers were to be used to place Magic Furnaces. If Salin wanted to cover the entire Daliang City in the Weave, he would need at least two thousand Magic Furnaces. This kind of consumption would take a few years or even longer with just Metatlin City. If he wanted it to be faster, he would have to dismantle the Ancient Barbarian Warship.
Rex's palace was first set up with the Weave. The last batch of elite soldiers was taken away by Nelis, and the palace was replaced with the Familiars that Nelis had secretly trained. These Familiars were much weaker than demons, but their spiritual power was just as strong. There were about three thousand and six hundred Familiars, and they all moved into the palace and became Controllers.
Two camps appeared in the east of the city. One was from Alchemy City, and the other was from Holy Rock City.
Apart from Nelis, no one had developed spatial equipment that could carry living beings. These two camps were all temporarily recruited soldiers. Fortunately, they didn't need to fight outside the city, so they didn't need to recruit too many soldiers.
The mercenaries were recruited in batches by Nelis and brought to Daliang City in the Purgatory of Purification. After coming out of the Purgatory of Purification, these mercenaries were muddle-headed and didn't remember what happened at all. They just thought it was the work of magic that allowed teams of people to enter Daliang City.
Alchemy City and Holy Rock City had more and more powerful people, and they were stationed in the two camps. The main city gate in the east of Daliang City was also modified and became the core of the Weave in the east.
There were more and more soldiers outside the city. It seemed like the final battle was inevitable.
Salin took this opportunity to secretly send the Elemental Magic Tower back to Metatlin City. Salin really didn't have the power to repair the Elemental Magic Tower by himself, so he could only ask his teacher for help.
On the east wall of Daliang City, apart from the metal towers and magic cannons, there were also a large number of heavy alchemy crossbows. These were the reinforcements from Holy Rock City. The range of these alchemy crossbows was beyond Salin's imagination. It was actually five miles away.
Of course, it was impossible to maintain the accuracy of the small crossbows at such a range. However, the heavy alchemy crossbows provided by Holy Rock City were really professional. Apart from shooting alchemy arrows that were more than four meters long, they could also shoot hundreds of small alchemy arrows at the same time.
Salin was also an eye-opener for himself. The list he made was basically based on information and some information that Rex told him. Some war equipment that was originally thought to be only legends had appeared, such as a large metal cannon that could throw real magic bombs.
This metal cannon was set up in the camp inside the city and could shoot more than ten miles away. What he shot out was a real magic fireball, like a large fireball.
For a whole half a month, the Inquisition army below the city lost more than six hundred thousand people, but their numbers kept increasing. The dead soldiers were buried on the spot, and new soldiers were constantly mobilized to fight against the stone gods.
This was endless replenishment. If one stone god was killed, the Inquisition would have to pay at least fifty lives. This was under the situation where a large number of mages were helping. If there was no continuous supply of equipment from the outside, even the two chief judges would not be able to hold on.
Inside the palace, the mages from Alchemy City and Holy Rock City waited anxiously. Under the hundreds of metal towers in the palace, the magic furnaces began to operate. The sky suddenly lit up. It was evening, and the light made everyone within a hundred miles feel as if the sun had risen high above the horizon. It was as if time had turned back.
Then, the radiance of the magic disappeared, and hundreds of mysterious magic energy lines linked up. The sky above the palace was shrouded in this invisible magic net.
The mages were delighted to find that the elements in the surrounding space could be sensed again and controlled at will. They couldn't help but release the magic they were proud of at the same time. For a moment, the light of magic was everywhere in the palace.
The usually calm mages couldn't help but cheer. In an environment like Daliang City, the mages all felt very depressed. The elemental power that they usually controlled had disappeared, and these mages were very uneasy. Now that their power had been restored, the mages were naturally very excited.
The magic net disappeared very quickly. This was just an experiment. If it wasn't a battle, no one would be willing to operate hundreds of magic furnaces at the same time.
