Before the Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen could say anything, the Firerock Dwarves rushed over and ruthlessly beat up John Paladin.
"Idiot, you idiot! Master's fort is below us, and Master is still on the deck! What are you doing!?"
"Be careful, don't kill him. As long as he doesn't die, ruthlessly beat him up!"
A few Firerock Dwarves seemed to have gone crazy as they kept kicking and slapping John Paladin. After three minutes, they managed to drag the badly battered John Paladin out of the hold.
This was the picket team that Elsa presided over. It was made up of people from the three major races, and whoever made a mistake would be dealt with by the picket team.
Every time someone made a mistake, their own race would be a bit more ruthless, because as long as someone made a mistake, they would definitely be laughed at by the other two races for a long time.
This time, the Firerock Dwarves would definitely be laughed at by the Dark Elves and Ash Beastmen for a few years.
The unexpected interlude ended, and the aura of destruction coming from the Intrepid dissipated. But that huge body still brought an indescribable pressure.
This time, the thieves in the Grey Beastmen's fort didn't dare to stretch their hands.
As for the terrified humans, they finally learned from the Grey Beastmen's cheers that the master of the fort had returned.
A 9th Rank Archmage foolishly looked at the Intrepid floating above his head, a complicated expression on his face.
'Mafa Merlin? The Merlin Family was really lucky. During the most difficult time of the Merlin Family, Santon Merlin appeared and made the Merlin Family rise.
Now, the Merlin Family had another Mafa Merlin, and that was an even more frightening guy.
He established a city in the Raging Flame Plane, and there, Beastmen and humans coexisted peacefully. Even the Beastmen who hated humans would cheer for a human City Lord.
'Such an inconceivable guy. These Grey Beastmen all seem to respect him, and even the children are smiling because of his return.
'How did he do it? It was said that the Grey Beastmen had already withdrawn from the war with the humans, and all the Grey Beastmen of the Raging Flame Plane were gathering here.
When the Shadow Tower next to the Four Seasons Plain wanted to invade, the first ones to resist weren't the humans, but the Grey Beastmen.
'Amazing, no one can stop the rise of the Merlin Family. It's said that apart from Mafa Merlin, everyone who went to the Holy Mountain was a Heaven Rank powerhouse, but no one thinks that Mafa Merlin isn't strong enough. What a terrifying guy …'
Lin Yun returned, but he didn't return to the Grey Beastmen's fort. After hearing the report, he immediately led the Intrepid to the mountain range basin adjacent to the Four Seasons Plain.
There were still many corrupted magical beasts occupying that place, and there were even remnants of demons.
He had the three major races clean up the contaminated magic beasts and Demons in the mountain range, while Lin Yun went to the Black Iron Beastmen's fort.
This was the fort they had first occupied, the masterpiece of this era, the huge puppet factory hidden under the fort. The entire underground base was a colossal Heaven Rank Puppet.
Now, he could finally move into the Natural Demiplane!
As he entered the underground base, he heard Shawn's loud cursing.
"Idiot! Idiot! You can't even do such a simple thing, what are you still alive for … "
Shawn, who had been cursing, suddenly stopped and turned to see Lin Yun.
"Merlin, damnit, how long are you going to throw me here? This place is too boring, there are only these hopelessly stupid guys here, I can't even find anything fun …"
Lin Yun looked around and saw that the underground base was operating normally. The captured Grey Beastmen couldn't be beaten away. Not only was there perfect equipment here, but there were also sufficient resources to manufacture any kind of puppet. As long as they could think of something, they could use the resources and equipment to experiment.
There was no problem here, so Lin Yun led Shawn to the Natural Demiplane. After entering, they saw the Quicksand Tower and the Shadow Tower's captives working hard.
The Shadow Tower's mages led by Dyrrhus had only completed a small part of their palaces, because they hadn't even finished one palace yet. More tasks would immediately appear, and they simply couldn't stop.
Those two Ancestor Souls, who had been thinking about how to swindle the Three-Eyed Wolf all day long, were extremely obsessed with building a temple for their Wolf God. Lin Yun simply couldn't order them around, so they took the initiative to act as supervisors. These guys from the Shadow Tower simply couldn't think of having a good time.
They even let go of their mana to increase the speed and quality of their construction, and their days weren't as good as when their mana had been sealed.
Because the two crazy Ancestor Souls were staring at them like mad dogs, and if they had any crooked thoughts, they would immediately suffer a cruel punishment.
Lin Yun didn't pay attention to the Shadow Tower's guys. These guys shouldn't even think of going back, they should just work hard here.
Seeing Lin Yun appear, Dyrrhus didn't dare to look at Lin Yun. He only lowered his head and busied himself with his work. That arrogant and despotic guy looked like he had been taught a lot recently. At the very least, he had become a lot smarter and knew that he couldn't resist.
Lin Yun chuckled and turned to look at the Quicksand Tower's people. As the Natural Demiplane kept evolving, the Demiplane's land would increase in size every time it evolved. Now, the narrowest part was already a few thousand kilometers wide.
With such a large continent, it would take at least seven to eight years to sort out and plan all the rivers on the continent. Especially now that the ocean had appeared, it was even more of a huge project that needed to be sorted out and planned near the continental shelf. If these guys wanted to finish all of it, it would take at least a decade …
But who knew what would happen to the Natural Demiplane in ten years? Its growth speed was definitely faster than their sorting speed.
The Quicksand Tower's Slythrin had already admitted defeat. Moreover, Slythrin had done a good job in the Abyss. After Lin Yun left, the amount of Eternal Dark Gold delivered through sacrifices increased a bit. It was clear that Slythrin had personally made a move, or else there wouldn't have been so many.
There was no grudge between them now, so capturing the Quicksand Tower's people wouldn't be too appropriate.
After thinking about it, Lin Yun felt that it would be better to let Daggeth's group go. In any case, a large amount of Eternal Dark Gold had already been buried in the Natural Demiplane, and its defenses had already merged with the Demiplane. Apart from Lin Yun's approval, no one else could enter the Demiplane.
Planar Infiltrators shouldn't even think of sneaking into the Demiplane. Moreover, the Natural Demiplane was still growing, and things like coordinates didn't have much meaning. He wasn't afraid of being discovered.
After thinking about it, Lin Yun flew to Daggeth.
"Sir Daggeth, you can leave."
Daggeth suddenly froze. He then seemed to recall something and his complexion paled.
"Sir Anderfa, I won't leave, I have no intention of escaping. I can clean up this river today …"
Lin Yun froze and immediately understood what was going on. That guy Anderfa had definitely used his appearance to torment these pitiful guys. Now, he wanted to let them go, but they didn't dare to leave.
"Sir Daggeth, I am Mafa Merlin, not Anderfa. The grudge between me and your Quicksand Tower ends here. Pack up, I'll send you off."
As if thinking of something, Daggeth looked at Lin Yun with bewilderment. After a few seconds, he thoroughly confirmed that the person standing in front of him was the real person and not Anderfa's plot.
"Lord Merlin, I … Can I not leave? I feel that this place is pretty good …"
Lin Yun sighed. 'Anderfa is mentally ill. Look at how he tormented a mage. I want to let him go, but the other side isn't willing to leave. He's been tortured silly.'
"Sir Daggeth, I'm not in the mood to tease you. I'm serious, you can take your Quicksand Tower's mages and leave this place. You can return to your Quicksand Tower."
Daggeth shook his head with a firm expression.
"Lord Merlin, you don't need to persuade me. I've already decided, I'll stay. I feel that this is pretty good, and I've never felt this good before!"
Lin Yun sighed and left. This was the first time he saw a captive addicted to hard labor. He wasn't willing to leave the prison.
Lin Yun chose a place to put the huge Heaven Rank Puppet in the Demiplane before leaving.
As for Dyrrhus, he found a chance to rest and stealthily looked for Daggeth.
"Sir Daggeth, what did Mafa Merlin say to you? Is he plotting something? Is that Demon Anderfa coming again? "
Daggeth honestly answered Lin Yun's question.
"Lord Merlin said to let me leave this place."
Dyrrhus' expression changed. He was a bit surprised before sneering.
"That Mafa Merlin definitely wants to use this kind of cheap trick to play with us. He said to let you go, but in the end, didn't he keep you trapped in this damned place?"
Daggeth shook his head.
"It's me who doesn't want to leave this place. I feel that this place is pretty good, but I'll have to keep fighting and killing if I go out …"
Dyrrhus looked at Daggeth in disbelief, but Daggeth had a stupefied expression, as if he had turned stupid from all the hard labor.
"Sir Daggeth, you are truly insane …"
After saying that, Dyrrhus turned around and left, feeling too lazy to talk to someone who had already gone insane.
Daggeth sneered after Dyrrhus left.
'That fool Dyrrhus will always be an idiot. With such a good opportunity in front of him, he only thinks of how to escape?
'Idiot, this is a Demiplane, and a very special Demiplane. I've never seen anyone's Demiplane develop so comprehensively, it's like a real world.
'Apart from Lord Merlin personally letting you go, even a Heaven Rank powerhouse shouldn't think of escaping from this place. Trying to escape, truly an idiot.
'Most importantly, this is a continuously improving Demiplane. The four elements are stable, the four elements are balanced, it's no different from a real world.
'Similarly, the Laws can also be comprehended here. Even if this isn't a complete world, the Laws are even easier to comprehend, especially when the Demiplane is growing and the Laws are fluctuating.
'At that time, the Laws would be like a blurry painting spread out in front of us. Comprehending any Law would be like a guide. It's more than ten times better than in Noscent. By relying on comprehending the Laws, the chances of advancing to the Heaven Rank are more than a hundred times higher.
'Such a good opportunity, yet he didn't want to use it. He even wanted to oppose Lord Merlin and escape. Truly an idiot, it serves him right to be tortured by that Demon Anderfa.
'But that's fine, with that guy here, that Demon Anderfa definitely won't care about me. That damned guy is definitely a Devil turned into a Magic Tool Incarnation.
'As a Magic Tool Incarnation, he is even more frightening than the most evil Demon I've ever seen.
'In any case, I definitely won't leave. Since the Lord Merlin is willing to let me go, he must have reconciled with the Quicksand Tower. Otherwise, with the Lord Merlin's temperament, I wouldn't believe that the Quicksand Tower made him lower his head.
'That's why I can't leave. This place is a lot better than the Quicksand Tower. Do you think I'm as stupid as that idiot Dyrrhus?'
Lin Yun didn't know what Daggeth and Dyrrhus were thinking. He was currently busy releasing mana and slowly shrouding the Heaven Rank Puppet with the power of the Demiplane.
That huge puppet was too huge. Casually opening a Planar Path wouldn't allow it to pass through. He could only use mana and the power of the Demiplane to slowly cover the entire alchemy base before moving it into the Natural Demiplane in one breath.
After spending half an hour, Lin Yun's mana was exhausted three times before he managed to cover the entire underground base.
In an instant, a glaring light flickered on the plains of the Demiplane. That light seemed to distort as it rapidly converged into the outline of a huge base. Slowly, that outline was like a black and white painting being colored as it condensed piece by piece.
The spatial fluctuations were like waves spreading in the surroundings. After no less than three minutes, the spatial fluctuations thoroughly dissipated, and a colossus over a kilometer in size appeared on the plains.
That huge body was over a hundred meters tall, and there was a large amount of mud and stone covering its surface. It looked like a huge alchemy machine, and the Grey Beastmen and puppets bustling about could even be seen from some of the portals.
After appearing here, that huge puppet lost a stable supply of energy. There was still a huge array in the Black Iron Beastmen's fort that used Abyssal power as an energy source, but after being moved to the Demiplane, the Black Iron Beastmen's fort's array lost its effect.
The alchemy base's energy was rapidly being consumed, and after a few minutes, 1% of its energy had been consumed.
Lin Yun opened his mouth and spat out three Law Runes. In an instant, the power of the Demiplane was mobilized by Lin Yun, and the power that the Mana Vines pulled from the void was poured into the alchemy base. He even controlled a small Mana Vine to provide mana to the alchemy base.
That kind of pure mana was a lot more effective than Abyssal power. This alchemy base wasn't like the Intrepid, which was made of God corpses. Abyssal power was just ordinary energy to the Intrepid, and there was no difference.
But to the alchemy base, there was a huge difference. After switching to pure mana as an energy source, the stability and accuracy of many alchemy tools had greatly increased. This was very beneficial to the research and manufacturing of puppets. Many things that couldn't be done before could now be done.
After moving the alchemy base to the Demiplane, Lin Yun finally relaxed.
Everyone knew that Lin Yun had a puppet army, and they could see that the tireless and fearless puppets definitely weren't something that could be made by an alchemist.
A puppet base was inevitable. It wasn't that no one had any ideas about Lin Yun's puppet base, but unfortunately, no one could find the location of the puppet base. The Black Iron Beastmen's fort and the Grey Beastmen's fort were the main targets of those people with crooked ideas.
If the news of this alchemy base being a Heaven Rank Puppet leaked or was discovered, many people would dare to shed all pretense of cordiality and come to snatch it.
After finishing this matter, Lin Yun wondered if he should go to the Puppet Plane to take a look.
After all, the main purpose of this underground base should be to use it as a bridgehead to march into the Puppet Plane. There might be an even bigger base in the Puppet Plane.
Moreover, whether it was the patched puppet or other puppets, many of the materials and components could be found in the Puppet Plane.
The components of a Heaven Rank Puppet were the most precious. If he wanted to restore the patched puppet's power to the Heaven Rank, he would need a lot of Heaven Rank components, and the matching components would be even fewer. He might have to get rid of a few Heaven Rank Puppets to gather enough materials.
But the Puppet Plane didn't lack puppets. It was a paradise for puppets. If he wanted to form a true puppet army, he would have to go to the Puppet Plane.
Now, his puppet army only had two kinds of puppets. One was a kind of melee Blade Puppets. After forming an army of this kind of puppets, they would be like a flood of blades when facing a large number of enemies that weren't powerful individually, they would sweep through everything in their path.
But if they encountered some Elemental lifeforms with formidable defenses, or some Elemental lifeforms that didn't suffer too much damage after being cut open, as well as some special lifeforms, the sword puppet army's fighting strength would sharply decline.
The other casting puppet army relied on a huge number of spells to form a flood of spells. That kind of power was also only suitable for large-scale battles. It wasn't too useful against powerhouses. After all, no matter how many Low Tier Spells there were, there weren't many spells that could hit their targets at the same time.
The limitations were too great. If they met an army with a strong counter to the casting puppets, the casting puppet army might be crippled.
