Suhlen's vision blurred, and in the next second, he appeared in a hall. Suhlen looked at Hathaway in confusion. What's going on? Didn't they teleport to the lab? Why did they go straight back to the castle?
"Uh, the coordinates were wrong … Just a small error …" Hathaway shrunk her neck and said awkwardly.
Suhlen glared at her and didn't pursue the matter. However, he had already decided that he would confirm the coordinates himself next time. The teleportation spell was very dangerous. It was convenient to teleport successfully, but the consequences would be equally serious if there was a mistake.
For example, if they were teleported directly into mud or rocks, they would suffocate if they weren't strong enough, or they would be teleported to dangerous areas. In short, it was very dangerous if the coordinates were wrong.
Sensing the spatial ripples in the hall, Chris quickly appeared here.
"Master, you're back." Chris was wearing a beautiful maid outfit, which accentuated her curvaceous figure. She had a different kind of charm.
Although the maid outfit was a bit loose, it was obviously different on Chris. As Suhlen's spokesperson, Chris was the highest officer when Suhlen wasn't around.
"Mhmm." Suhlen smiled and nodded, then reached out and patted her head.
"How's the development in the city? Did anything happen? "
"Everything in the city is good. It's been developing according to your requirements. Mirror Lake City reported yesterday that they were a bit short on manpower, so I gave them the refugees we took in this month." Chris shook her head.
Suhlen smiled. "Looks like Mirror Lake City is developing very well. North Town City is developing well now. You can give them more support."
Chris nodded to show that she understood.
"By the way, I'll take you to a good place in a few days." Suhlen winked and smiled.
Chris was a bit confused, but she still nodded obediently.
"By the way, Master, there's a man who says he's a messenger from the Kingdom of Florence who wants to see you."
"I don't have time to see him now. Let him wait." Suhlen waved his hand and prepared to go upstairs.
After a few days of high-intensity work, although he didn't feel too tired physically, he was mentally exhausted and needed to rest. After a brief explanation, Suhlen yawned and went back to sleep.
After resting for a day, Suhlen got up in high spirits.
Suhlen changed his clothes and went to take a look at the city. After a year of development, Northern City now had a population of 25,000. If you counted the goblins, kobolds, gnolls, orcs, and other slaves, the population of Northern City had exceeded 40,000. It was considered a medium-sized city in the northern provinces. After all, there were only three large cities like Calt in the entire northern provinces.
The streets of the city were straight, and all the roads were paved with a layer of stones or slabs. It would not be muddy when it rained, and there would not be dust when it was sunny. The streets were very clean. Even the horses that passed by had a bag hanging behind them, which was specially used to collect horse dung.
Northern Town had very high standards for hygiene. If a horse urinated or defecated in the town, it would be charged to the owner. Not only would the owner be fined, but the owner would also have to do volunteer work. Later on, when the fertilizer factory in Northern Town began to produce, the horse dung would be collected. A bag of horse dung could be sold for two copper Nars.
Flowerbeds were built on both sides of the roads, where all kinds of green plants were planted. Flowers bloomed all year round. At the same time, there were fountains on the streets, gardens, and plazas. The streets were full of people. Although it was busy, everything seemed to be in order.
The taverns were buzzing with activity. The vodka produced in Northern Town was very popular in the north. Apart from soldiers on vacation, grey dwarves, and guards from other caravans, the grey dwarves were also there. The grey dwarves loved to drink the most. Vodka was a strong liquor, and ordinary people could not drink much of it.
The grey dwarves were very satisfied with their current lives. They used to work for the king, but now they worked for Suhlen. However, working for Suhlen meant that they could get better food and liquor. Their stingy king would not give them vodka. The stubborn, cunning, and tenacious grey dwarves were very loyal to Suhlen.
After strolling around the taverns, Suhlen came to the trade market. The trade market was the most prosperous area in Northern Town. More than a hundred caravans gathered here. Apart from the caravans from the northern provinces, caravans from the southern provinces had also set up their own chambers of commerce here. Even the Desert Kingdom, the Tarrance Kingdom, and the Holy Six-lights Alliance in the south had set up offices here.
There were dates, carpets, cotton, raisins, dried fruits, and female slaves from the Desert Kingdom, pottery, palm oil, olive oil, wine, and spices from the Holy Six-lights Alliance in the south, and gemstones, obsidian, tea leaves from the Lotas Kingdom. There were all kinds of goods here.
Apart from sugar and rum, vodka was also very popular in Northern Town. It looked clear and transparent, but it tasted like a ball of fire in the mouth. It was very popular in the north.
The paper produced in Northern Town City had become another popular product. At the same time, the quality of weapons in Northern Town City had improved once again due to the presence of a large group of Dwarven Blacksmiths. Many merchant groups purposely came to Northern Town City to buy the high-quality Dwarven equipment.
Just last month, the business tax collected in Northern Town had reached over ten thousand Kinnar. It could be seen how prosperous Northern Town was from this tax.
Northern Town had many names in the mouths of these merchants, such as the City of Wealth, the Pearl of the Northern Kingdoms, and so on. They also praised the few magnificent buildings in Northern Town. The most famous ones were the Arc de Triomphe and the aqueduct system. The Arc de Triomphe was majestic and magnificent, and the aqueduct system was also called a miracle. The Harvest Altar was mysterious because Suhlen did not allow people to get close to it.
It was said that after King Henry III of the Kingdom of Florence heard about the Arc de Triomphe, he also announced that such a magnificent building would be built in the central avenue of the city to sing his praises.
Suhlen walked around the city and went to see the training of the Winged Dragon Knights. After a few months of feeding, these Cryopterus had entered the growth period. Each of them had grown to the size of a bison, and their wingspan was over five meters.
The nest and training ground they were living in were specially built. Inside, other than the + 15 Comfortable Environment, + 15 Training Progress, + 18 Energy Recovery, + 17 Coordination, there were also the + 18 Accelerated Growth, + 20 Sturdiness, and other rare attributes.
According to the growth rate of these Cryopterus, they would reach adulthood in less than four years. Perhaps in two or three years, Northern Town would have a squad of Winged Dragon Knights.
When Suhlen returned to the castle, Alex had returned from the Eagle Fortress. She looked like a queen now. With the support of Northern Town's resources, as the Queen of the Harpies, her appearance had skyrocketed. She looked very elegant. Suhlen felt a sense of accomplishment every time he discussed the true meaning of life. She and the little Succubus were the strongest fighters among Suhlen's maids.
"Alex, how are the Harpies doing lately? Are there any problems? "Suhlen asked with a smile.
"The children love the nest master built," Alex said excitedly. Alex said excitedly. "Also, another Harpy leader has become a Harpy recently."
Although Su Lun's Eagle Nest didn't have a high effect of evolution, there were thousands of Harpies. It was normal for one or two of them to evolve. During this time, the Harpies had also cooperated with the soldiers of Northern Battlefront City to train and fight. They had also gained a lot of combat experience.
"Master, the Eagle Nest has consumed a lot of food recently," Alex said.
"Go find Chris later and ask her to send you some food," Suhlen nodded. "Oh, right. Go and choose the weapons you want to use. I'll ask the blacksmith to produce them and send them to you."
Since the Harpies' arms and wings were connected, it was inconvenient for them to use weapons. However, once they evolved into Harpies, their arms would be separated from their wings. That way, they could use weapons.
"Bows, javelins, spears, etc. But they'll be lighter," Alex said after thinking for a moment.
As aerial units, these weapons were very suitable for them.
"Alright, I understand."
After returning to the castle, Suhlen arranged everything. He asked people to collect materials for the teleportation circle. At the same time, the construction of the Wizard Tower was put on the agenda.
The Wizard Tower required a large amount of obsidian. There were no obsidian mines in the Northern Citadel. The obsidian mines in the underground world were also poor. If they wanted to obtain a large amount of obsidian, they would have to go to the caravans of the Loftus Kingdom.
Suhlen asked the city hall to sign a long-term supply contract with the merchants of the Loftus Kingdom. He was ready to buy a large amount of obsidian. It was important to know that not only did the Wizard Tower need obsidian, but also the restoration of the secret realm in the future. Hathaway was also preparing to build some obsidian stone statues and ghost statues. This would require even more obsidian.
The cost of building a Wizard Tower was at least a few million Kinnar. Fortunately, Suhlen had made a fortune. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to support his girlfriend.
There was a question in the noble circle. How did it feel to have a witch as a lover or a wife?
Thanks for the invitation. She was in the Northern Citadel.
Suhlen could tell him that it was best not to look for a witch if they didn't have a net worth of tens of millions. It was too expensive. Also, it was not recommended to try it if their body wasn't strong enough. In other words, witches had to be normal, beautiful, and proficient in all kinds of spells. They always liked to add some fun when exploring the mysteries of life.
For example, Grease, Shapeshifting, Shadow Tentacles, Giant Transformation, Shrinking, and so on. If you were strong enough, it would definitely be a pleasure.
