The teleportation portal couldn't be used after it was put together. Rex took out the scroll that he had prepared and cast Fusion. Fusion was a level-7 spell of the darkness series. If Rex didn't advance, he wouldn't be able to activate the scroll.
There were magic patterns at the joints of the stones. Under the effect of Dark Fusion, they gradually became a whole. This was a compound teleportation portal with a total of 42 sockets.
Rex took out six White Spirits that had been cut and put them in the six sockets in the middle. Then, he put 36 huge magic cores in the six ancillary magic arrays.
Although Salin was used to seeing gems, he still felt heartache when he saw the huge White Spirits. The magic cores in the ancillary magic arrays were also level-7. The teleportation this time could no longer be calculated with gold coins.
Hunting creatures above level-7 usually required a huge price. If Rex hadn't obtained the treasure left by the goddess, he wouldn't have been able to afford such a cost.
If a big city didn't have a mine or an exclusive alchemy factory, its annual income would only be about a hundred thousand gold coins. For a place like Ceylon City, Viscount Guge would only get about ten thousand gold coins a year, including the ships that his ancestors left behind, which could be used for smuggling.
For the nobles of smaller families, it would be good if they could get one or two thousand gold coins a year. Big cities could also collect a certain entrance tax. Many small cities had very little population flow, and the city lords would rather pay the tax to attract more merchants.
There were many poor nobles in the four empires.
After putting the gems and magic cores in, Rex asked everyone to stand in the center of the teleportation portal, but she didn't activate it. Only when the God Sieve Ring on her hand lit up once more did the magic tower's ninth floor release an intense magical radiance. Outside the magic array, the rest of the Battle Puppets were left in this demiplane. Rex was cautious, and gave the Battle Puppets the simplest order to stand guard.
As long as the teleportation portal wasn't destroyed, she could come back. If it was someone else who came back, the battle puppets would attack with full force when the teleportation portal was activated.
People in the teleportation portal would definitely be pierced by the battle puppets' javelins unless they were prepared.
The space was twisted, and the six elements were repelled, forming a vacuum tunnel. This time was extremely short. Under Rex's protection, Salin and the others' bodies lit up with golden light, and they quickly passed through the dimensional barriers.
The time was too short. Salin only saw the secret in that instant, and vaguely formed the concept of space in his mind. Salin believed that as long as he ran through the teleportation portal thirty to fifty thousand times, he would be able to see the connection between the planes clearly without anyone's guidance.
The teleportation process only took about six vibrations before the four of them appeared at the center of another magic array. Salin knew that he had returned to the Myers Continent. At this moment, he was not excited, but extremely nervous. The surrounding elemental waves were too unstable. Without hesitation, he cast four Ice Rune Armors consecutively, buffing everyone with one. Then, he cast a Water Rune Shield on his own Ice Rune Armor.
Beng …
There was a strong tremor and a huge cracking sound. Salin and the others were thrown into the sky. The Teleportation Formation beneath his feet immediately collapsed. Rex grabbed Salin with one hand and Shika with the other. Nelis hugged Salin tightly. The four of them flew into the sky and fell into the distance.
A level-six Great Mage could already fly, but carrying three people was really something that Rex could not do.
The collapsed magic array did not harm Salin. A gentle wind supported the four of them, and they slowly landed on the ground.
"Princess!"
A cheer sounded. Salin's eyes had already seen the surrounding situation clearly. This was not Holy Rock City at all! In the distance, there was a dense mass of soldiers cheering. The level-eight Magic Shooter of the Kushui Commandery was standing there, casting wind magic to protect the four of them.
"Teacher!" Rex landed on his feet and looked at the Magic Shooter in surprise.
After not seeing him for a year, the Magic Shooter was still the same, gentle and calm. But why did he leave the Kushui Commandery? Did something happen? Rex remembered Salin's premonition, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
She looked around and saw that the soldiers in the distance were all wearing the banners of the Kushui Commandery. However, these soldiers were all wearing pure black armor, and there was no other color on their equipment. Rex's heart sank, and she stood there in a daze.
Salin did not really understand, but he could feel the change in Rex. He broke free from Rex's hand and walked towards the Magic Shooter. He bowed deeply and asked respectfully, "Master, what happened?"
The Magic Shooter glanced at Rex and said calmly, "His Majesty died in battle."
What?
Even Salin could not believe this news. He had seen Emperor Qin Yin, and the feeling the emperor gave him was even more terrifying than the Oracles of the Vatican. How could a powerful person like the emperor die in battle under the protection of over a hundred thousand elite troops? If facing the emperor, the Oracles would not even have time to recite prayers, and would not be able to launch an attack on the level of Divine Punishment.
Salin could even be sure that the emperor's power surpassed Prince Sephiroth's, and Sephiroth himself was already a Gold Sword Sage. With such power, even if he was alone, he would not be easily killed. The emperor had been recruiting soldiers all the way. Other than the 120,000 elites, he had gathered at least 500,000 troops.
There were many Great Mages and Swordsmen in the army. How could it be …
Pure black was the mourning uniform of the Qin Yin Empire. There were more than 3,000 troops in the distance. Naturally, these people did not dare to joke with Rex.
Rex's eyes were a little dull. Salin frowned and waved his hand to cast a Spring Rain. Green mist seeped into Rex's body. Rex calmed himself down and did not cry in the end.
"Master, when did this happen?" Rex's voice was hoarse. He did not push away Neris, who was supporting him. She felt abnormally weak. All this time, Emperor Qin Yin was not just a father in her heart. He was all she could rely on.
"It's been six months."
Six months! Rex felt like there were tens of thousands of icicles poking at his heart. His vision darkened.
"Rex, the matter at hand is more important," Neris suddenly said. She realized that Rex had been very nice to Salin in recent months. It seemed like she could find a way to make something happen between them. A demon might only have one wife in his life, but a powerful demon would also find a few more female demons and give birth to more strong offspring. She purposely did not call him princess. As expected, Rex did not notice anything wrong. She nodded and looked around.
This was not Sacred Rock City, nor Kushui Prefecture. It was the place where she was sent to the Hell of Divine Punishment. There was a huge castle in what was originally a wilderness.
This castle could accommodate thousands of people. The walls were tall, and the gate was a little narrow. It was not good for attacking, but good for defense. The top of the gate was still empty. There was no engraving of the name of the castle.
Looking at the soldiers in the distance, most of them were elites of Kushui Prefecture. Rex walked to the soldiers and cast a sound amplification spell. He said to the thousands of soldiers, "I, Rex de Glücos, establish a country here today. The name of the country is Rex Prefecture. His Majesty Chanak is my father. His hatred will be ended by me. You are all witnesses. I will flatten the Tanggulas Empire in my lifetime. Are you willing to follow me? "
Rex did not know what to say at the end, but his tone was impassioned.
With a clang, the thousands of soldiers drew their swords. There was almost no noise. If it was on the battlefield, the sound of swords being drawn at the same time would be extremely lethal and intimidating.
"Rex!"
The black-clothed and black-armored soldiers stepped forward and shouted angrily. The death of the emperor in battle was a great humiliation. This humiliation had to be washed away with blood. None of these soldiers were Spellcasters. They were taught to be loyal to the empire, to His Majesty, and to Princess Rex.
Rex suppressed her sadness, and her mind became more active. Seeing that her teacher had built a castle here and mobilized troops to guard it, she knew that something had changed in Sacred Rock City. Hence, she announced that she would establish a country here without hesitation, even though this place was very far from Kushui Prefecture.
Father had passed away six months ago, and the throne was long gone. If she did not fight for it, there would be nothing left.
Rex took out the magic staff that Joey had given her and raised it, signaling for silence. She only said two words — enter the city.
The emotions of the army could be stirred up, but if this continued, it would be easy to vent. She was still very confused. She was afraid that she would say something wrong. She had to discuss everything with her teacher.
The castle gates were all open, and more than three thousand soldiers entered from four gates. Rex was in a terrible mood. If she wasn't in front of these thousands of people, she would have lost control directly. At this moment, she could only ride on the black horse that the soldiers brought over and walk side by side with her teacher. Under the escort of the soldiers, they entered the nameless castle.
Qin Yin's castle was a chain structure, and there were connecting corridors in the air inside. Rex walked past the square where the soldiers were gathered and said to Salin, "Go to the study with Teacher. I have to meet the generals first."
"Okay, Neris, follow Rex. If anyone tries to harm her, just kill them, "Salin said to Neris, seeing that Rex was emotionally unstable. When a Spellcaster couldn't concentrate, there would be problems with magic manipulation. Rex wanted to refuse, but the Magic Shooter said softly, "Go."
Salin followed the Magic Shooter to the study of the castle. Salin waited for the Magic Shooter to sit down before he said, "Master, I haven't asked for your name."
The Magic Shooter smiled and said, "Salin, before I reached level-nine, my teacher didn't allow me to have my own name. In his eyes, everyone below the ninth rank is the same. There's no difference. "
"Your teacher?"
