[There will definitely be no less than two chapters in the future. No matter how late it is, it will be published. Although my emotions are still unstable, I can already overcome it. Thanks to everyone's support, I didn't give up. Life has to go on, and we can't always look at the past. So, I made up my mind that before this book is finished, I won't stop updating, except for the time on the train.]
Nelis fantasized in her heart, and the expression on her face was a little strange. Fortunately, Salin didn't notice this. If Salin saw Nelis' expression, he would definitely be extremely uneasy. This little demon would only be like this when she was hiding something important from him.
Nelis's plan was good, but she never thought that in the Demonic Plane, the living environment was abnormally harsh. If she summoned a large number of those demonic insects, it would cause huge trouble for the Myers Continent if they got out of control.
If a few Great Demons came, they could easily be eliminated by gathering the powerhouses on the continent. There were definitely not many people like Joey on the continent, but there would definitely not be only one. When a Great Demon came to this plane, their strength would be suppressed like the Undead King. This situation could only be avoided if they followed a powerful master.
But the demonic insects were different. The level of the demonic insects was very low, and after being summoned, their strength would almost not change. All kinds of demonic insects had a common characteristic, and that was their extremely strong reproductive ability. These demonic insects ate everything and didn't care about the environment. Once they proliferated, the Myers Continent would face a disaster.
It was simply impossible for Nelis to control millions of demonic insects, unless she reached the level of Joey.
In fact, the Winged Skeleton also knew what Nelis was thinking, but he was an Undead, and he didn't care how many people died on the Myers Continent. At most, this place would become another Undead Plane.
Salin didn't pay attention to Nelis. He took the dimension stone and came to the huge hidden space under the shrine. In addition to the materials for building the magic tower, there were also many materials and equipment left by Rex. In addition to the magic beast carapace and magic core obtained from the Frozen Sea, not even one-tenth of the huge space was used.
This space was not a magic space, but simply dug out from a huge rock underground. The earliest passage had been completely sealed, and it could only be entered through the teleportation array.
Many of the building materials on the ground were excavated from here, and Salin was very satisfied with his work. Such a huge warehouse was almost completed by him alone. Creating this warehouse allowed his ability to control the flow of water to reach its peak.
The materials in the Dimensional Stone were taken out one by one. The location of the sunken ship was not far from the harbor, but it still took Nelis more than a week to return. Because the target was in deep water, it was very troublesome to collect. What Salin needed were useful materials. If he carelessly stored them in the Dimensional Stones, it would cause the material to collapse.
The warship of the Second Dynasty was dismantled into countless materials and metal parts. The value of all the materials that could be preserved intact in the sea was immeasurable. If a piece of Thundercloud Wood was used to make a shield, it could be cut into dozens of pieces, and each piece's defense would be stronger than a steel shield. It was impossible for a steel shield to perfectly store magic, and the Thundercloud Wood itself was a magic material.
Nelis dismantled very carefully and did not damage the materials. Salin first took out pieces of Thundercloud Wood and stacked them. This Thundercloud Tree was produced in the Giant Plane. It was said that a mature Thundercloud Tree could grow into the clouds and withstand the bombardment of lightning. The Thundercloud Wood used by the Second Dynasty to make warships was obviously one of the best materials. Even after ten thousand years of corrosion in the sea, the wood had not decayed.
However, the magic used to connect the wood had long lost its effect. Glue alone could not maintain the shape of the warship. Nelis mainly resisted the pressure of the sea when dismantling it.
Celestial Cherry Wood was also a material for warships. Other than that, there were some smaller pieces of wood used to build buildings above the deck of the warship. Nelis had also meticulously dismantled the wood and brought it back. Salin sorted them out and put them away.
There were still many things on the warship that had decayed. Some common metal materials were only left with a pile of residue. Nelis did not distinguish between good and bad, and retrieved them one by one. The boxes made of Celestial Cherry Wood still had some weapons and equipment from before. Salin unexpectedly found many that could still be used. These weapons, now, seemed to be at least Divine Artifacts.
When he first found the warship wreckage, Salin was not too excited. He did not think that anything could be preserved after ten thousand years. However, he was a little excited now. The materials that Nelis retrieved should be enough for him to replicate a two-hundred-meter-long warship. He could use the dragon skeleton he obtained as the warship's keel.
Salin also found twelve cannons. These did not look like magic cannons, nor were they stone cannons. On a square metal base, there were round metal barrels that were more than three meters long. These barrels were thicker than magic cannons. They were hollow and did not have any crystals embedded in the muzzle.
However, these cannons were also severely corroded, and the magic patterns on them were already unrecognizable.
Nelis had secretly followed through the magic array at some point. She said from behind Salin, "Master, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Salin saw that Nelis was sneaking around and felt a little strange.
"There are still some bones in the warship wreckage. I gave them to the Wing Skeleton."
"That's it?"
"Master, the Wing Skeleton wants those bones. Is it trying to rebel?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Nelis, are you hiding something from me? "Salin finally felt that something was wrong.
Nelis panicked and had an idea in the midst of the emergency. She deliberately replied proudly, "Master, of course I have something to hide from you. I'm a pure-blooded little demon. But take a guess, what is it? "
Salin lost interest after hearing Nelis's words. He said, "If you want to tell me, then hurry up. Otherwise, I'm not in the mood to guess riddles."
Nelis snickered in her heart. She blinked and said, "Then forget it. Anyway, I'll tell you sooner or later."
Salin quickly changed the topic and said, "Nelis, go find Ainphent and ask the three lords to hurry up and continue building the city. Although their injuries have not recovered, they can summon new skeletons. It's already been a few months, and the city wall is still half built. I want them to prepare all the materials first. When Rex's people arrive, we'll immediately start the final process. "
"Master, I'll go now, but …"
"What else do you want?"
"Not me. I've done some calculations. We should send people to pick up Rex."
"I'm preparing. This time, we need to build a batch of armor. We need to send at least five hundred people. Phoenix isn't peaceful. If the number of people is small, even the magicians might be attacked. "
"Master, there are magic chariots in those East Sea battleships. Why don't I salvage them too? If they can be repaired, it'll be much safer to pick up Rex's people."
"You've gone to take a look?"
"Yes, there are about seven or eight chariots that can be repaired. Master, I also looked at the ship's warehouse. There's no food, but there are many weapons that can be used directly after salvaging them. "
"Then go do it. I'll give you a dimensional stone. Don't lose it." Salin gave Nelis a dimensional stone. After Nelis left, he was still in this huge space. He looked at the mountains of materials and began to think.
The swordsmen and sailors that Seriger Island brought were not full. It was only half of the normal number. Salin relied on the large number of magicians to drive the battleship here. However, it was not necessary to have too many magicians on the battleship. If the magicians were withdrawn, there would not be enough sailors. He could only have one and a half battleship's crew for now.
He only had the materials for the new battleship, but not the blueprints. Even if he had the blueprints, there were too few people who could not rely on alchemy equipment. He had to rely on the three lords for this.
When the new battleship was built, all the sailors and the swordsmen of Seriger Island would have to be used on it. He was only left with a group of pirates. Asking Ainphent and Helene for swordsmen? Even a person would be dissatisfied. After all, those swordsmen were the foundation of the two. They had abandoned everything in their families and followed these two young people to a foreign city. If he wanted them, how to use them was still a problem.
Barbarians could be scouts or mercenaries, but compared to a regular army, they were a group of rough people. It would be difficult to train them.
It seemed like he could only use the pirates that he had subdued as the backbone. Fortunately, Geyi was very capable. With his support, he had already subdued more than two hundred pirates.
There were quite a few craftsmen in Jupiter's group, and they could forge ordinary armor and weapons. However, he had a lot of ready-made armor. Those people were not of much use for now.
Salin shook his head and sighed. He would only vent his emotions occasionally when there was no one around. He used the dimensional stone to collect ready-made armor and equipment. Then, he collected the shells of many red krill and level-four magic cores.
The heavy armor was for the barbarians. Although the barbarians did not practice sword energy, their strength was similar to that of the Caucasians. Wearing heavy armor would not affect their movements. The barbarians could not use real magic weapons, but ordinary alchemy arrows could. The sharpness of the alchemy arrows combined with a hard bow was not inferior to low-level magic.
Salin picked out the materials that he needed and put them into the dimensional stone. Then, he left his secret warehouse.
The matter of welcoming Rex was also more important. Salin estimated that Rex would return in two months at most. In these two months, he had to gather a relatively strong force and meet up with Rex in the south.
With the current situation, even if the magicians he sent out did not meet Rex, Rex would not return to Connecting City. All Salin had to do was greet Rex in Phoenix. According to Salin's estimation, Rex would bring at least a swordsman battalion for this new city.
These ten thousand elites should not be a problem. However, if there was a battle, the healers would be a problem. He sent people to welcome them mainly to bring supplies, in case Rex's men encountered any trouble in this regard.
Apart from this, Salin also wanted to show his power. Not for Rex to see, but for Rex's men to see. Otherwise, these people would definitely look down on him. Although he was a level-five magician, he was not as good as Rex.
