Salin had planned to deal with the Phoenix nobles slowly, but he knew he was wrong when he heard this news. The empire was determined to conquer Phoenix, and kept increasing the number of invading troops. Phoenix had not fought for many years, so it was impossible for them to defend.
No matter how many drawbacks Qin Yin's method had, in the face of absolute power, Phoenix would not be able to resist.
Salin sent someone to bring the swordsman back to his follower's base. He was no longer interested in wandering around the city. He knew how to build the city. Although it was just a prototype, as long as more workers came and there were enough Magicians, the walls and other buildings would be built quickly. The skeletons were mainly paving the roads and building the underground facilities.
For a city of this scale, the drainage system alone was a huge project. Thousands of skeletons worked for months without rest to finish laying the underground pipes. Finally, they had to wait for the magicians to come and set up magic arrays at the key points. Only then would the city be safe. Otherwise, the underground space might be occupied by magical beasts.
This escaped swordsman alerted Salin. Although the swordsmen of Seriger Island were elites, they had no battle experience. The two magicians had died unjustly.
The five hundred people he sent out were well-equipped, but it would be very dangerous if they encountered a large army. Although he had warned them not to tangle with the enemy, he was afraid of being blocked in unfavorable terrain.
Salin could only rely on luck now. The five hundred people were all riding skeleton warhorses. Hopefully, they would not fight the enemy head-on. As long as they were not surrounded, escaping was not a problem. Moreover, Daniel and Christian both had magic chariots with them. As long as the enemy was not more than two Magic Shooters, they would have some concerns.
The power on land could only rely on Rex for now. Thinking of this, Salin ordered the soldiers of the temple to find Ainphent. He wanted to gather the three kings and build a warship for himself.
He did not want the three kings to work anymore. A warship made by the three kings was suitable for the undead to drive, and it would consume too many materials. However, the situation was not in his favor now. If he could not open a passage on the sea, his city would become a dead city.
Salin came to the fourth floor of the temple. There was a huge room here. He took out the dragon skeleton and placed it on the floor, waiting for the three kings.
The dragon skeleton had been cleaned. There were no scars on the black skeleton. On the huge dragon's head, the empty eye sockets were devoid of any spiritual energy. Only a pair of dragon horns that were several meters long were left, showing how powerful and majestic the giant dragons were when they were alive.
The bone wings of this giant dragon were also very intact. There was even a thin membrane that had not been corroded for tens of thousands of years. With such a huge dragon skeleton, he could probably refine thousands of weapons. However, Salin didn't have that many swordsmen to use, so he could only use them all.
If this warship was successfully built, only the Devil's Horn warship would be able to match its speed. Moreover, the warship that could fly across the water was definitely not as strong as his dragon skeleton warship. Once the dragon skeleton warship was completed, Salin dared to use it to collide with any ship.
The structure of the keel was very sturdy. Once it was dismantled to make armor, it would lose many of its miraculous effects.
The Three Sovereigns arrived very quickly. Their injuries had yet to recover, and they were forced by Salin to summon skeletons again. Needless to say, they were extremely depressed. Diabinus asked impatiently, "What do you want now? We are already working on the construction of the city as soon as possible. "
"I know. Look at this." Salin pointed at the dragon skeleton in the room and said, "I want to use this as the skeleton of a warship and create a ship that can fly across the water."
Judy and Coco looked at the dragon skeleton and shook their heads.
"Salin, you're too whimsical. Even if the three of us have recovered, we still can't do it."
"Even if you can't do it, you still have to do it. Also, use whatever good materials you have on you. As for your losses, I will compensate you with Green Spirits."
Salin had discovered a vein that was almost completely excavated in the Chaos Swamp. As a result, he had discovered some Green Spirit Gems. These Green Spirits were extremely precious to the undead. The Three Sovereigns had always wanted them, but they knew that Salin wouldn't give them. After all, they had never followed Salin willingly.
Hearing Salin's words, Ainphent knew why he was called over. After all, Judy and Coco belonged to him, and Salin couldn't directly command them.
However, Ainphent greatly admired Salin. It was very rare for someone to speak like this to the Three Sovereigns. Not only did Salin force the Three Sovereigns to help him build a warship, he even had to provide the materials. Although he would compensate them with Green Spirits, this was still a forced purchase. If they weren't under someone else's control, the Three Sovereigns wouldn't be willing to take this lying down.
As expected, after hearing Salin's words, Diabinas flew into a rage. Before he could make a move, Judy and Coco had already grabbed him. Salin wasn't a soft-hearted person. If Diabinas dared to make a move, Salin would immediately punish him. He might even erase Diabinas's Soul Fire.
Salin wasn't nervous. If Diabinas made a move, he could destroy his soul before his hand even touched him.
"Listen carefully. This matter isn't up to you to decide whether you want to do it or not. You three stay here and draw the blueprint. I want to see a perfect blueprint in three days. Judy and Coco, you're Ainphent's man. Are you willing to help me with this? "
"Of course I'm willing. With the Green Spirits, we won't lose anything." Judy and Coco lied casually. He hated Salin to the core, but Ainphent and Salin were in the same boat. There was no point in complaining to Ainphent. Ainphent would definitely force him to help Salin build the ship.
Judy and Coco's last regret was helping Salin build the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship. He didn't want Salin to know that he had this skill. At that time, he just wanted to trick Salin into giving him a turtle shell. Now, all he wanted was to get the three brothers involved.
Salin kept a straight face and left the room on the fourth floor with Ainphent.
Ainphent laughed loudly and said to Salin, "I didn't expect you to have such a side to you."
"I'm also a mage. These three guys think I'm easy to fool. I have to teach them a lesson. Ainphent, do you know what mechanical undead is? "
"Mechanical undead? You plan to install mechanical undead on the warship? I think we should forget about it. That thing's soul is different from any other creature. Even us necromancers can't control it, let alone the Three Sovereigns. Once that thing spreads on the continent, it'll be much more terrifying than black mages. "
"Then forget about it." Salin originally planned to let the Three Sovereigns use the mechanical undead as the warship's power, but after hearing Ainphent's words, Salin immediately dispelled the idea. When Daniel first discovered the appearance of mechanical undead, he was so scared that he peed his pants.
Don't try to possess power that you can't control, no matter how strong it is.
In the room on the fourth floor of the temple, Diabinas was furious.
"Judy and Coco, let me kill that damned guy!"
"If he doesn't die, you'll die first." Judy and Banchagana held Diabinas down together. After Banchagana and Salin went to the Frozen Sea, they became much more normal. He felt that although Salin was hateful, he wouldn't let himself suffer too much. Every time, he would receive some compensation from Salin. This mage should always be abiding by some principle.
Although Banchagana was often in a contradictory and chaotic state, he wasn't stupid. He also knew that if he attacked Salin, Salin could kill him at any time. Other mages might not have this ability, but Salin's terrifying left hand was something that even a Monarch-level undead could feel.
This damned life force just happened to be the bane of undead.
Diabinas gradually calmed down and sat on the ground. The white bones on his body collided with the ground, causing a loud bang.
"Forget it, Diabinas. Back then, Master left us a lot of materials, and they weren't considered precious back then. We can definitely use them to fool Salin now." Judy and Coco comforted Diabinas. He was really afraid that Diabinas would explode and provoke Salin.
Shang Lan's shadow had gradually disappeared from Salin's body. Judy and Coco were unusually afraid of this young mage. They were afraid that Salin would not kill them in anger, but use other methods to torture them.
"Judy and Coco, I can't take this lying down."
"He's a human. Even if he cultivated to the ninth rank, he only has a lifespan of a thousand years. We can at least live for tens of thousands of years." Banchagana used Salin's words to persuade Diabinas.
Diabinas smiled bitterly and said, "Alright, I know what's important. But don't let me see him for the next three days. Otherwise, I'll teach him a lesson even if I have to die. "
If Judy and Coco weren't an undead, they would definitely roll their eyes at Diabinas's words. This is called knowing what's important?
Fortunately, Salin really didn't disturb the Three Sovereigns during these three days. The Three Sovereigns racked their brains and drew three blueprints. When they met Shang Lan, the Myers Continent was still in the era of the Second Dynasty, when magic was prevalent. Although they weren't elementalists, they had a very deep understanding of magic.
It was impossible to refine such a huge warship just by relying on the Three Sovereigns' undead magic. It required a magic dock and the help of a huge magic array. Salin definitely wouldn't provide these materials, and could only take them from the Three Sovereigns' private stash.
Judy and Coco were right. The Three Sovereigns were Shang Lan's servants and thugs. Many magic materials that Shang Lan didn't need were thrown to them for safekeeping. Now that Shang Lan suddenly disappeared, these things became their personal property. In the Myers Continent, humans could still cross planes, and it wasn't difficult to obtain any strange materials. Therefore, these materials weren't considered precious at that time.
But now, many things were extinct in the Myers Continent. In Salin's view, these things were the best that couldn't be bought with gold coins.
For example, the Thundercloud Wood. At that time, the Second Dynasty even used it as the deck of a warship. Today's Qin Yin Empire, if they had the Thundercloud Wood, they would definitely cut it and make high-level equipment. Because humans could no longer reach the Giant Plane. Even if they could find the coordinates, after going there, perhaps the giants would no longer acknowledge their debt and be unwilling to help such weak humans.
