The two left the wizard town and stopped hiding. Suhlen got on the horse and carried Hathaway in his arms. He rode the Pegasus and soared into the sky. The Pegasus neighed and galloped forward.
"Damn it, that's a Pegasus!"
"Why do they have such a thing? Chase them!"
"What's there to chase? Do you think you can catch up with a Pegasus?" Just as Suhlen and Vivian left quickly on the Pegasus, three people in black wizard robes suddenly ran out from the woods below and looked at the figures disappearing into the sky.
.....
Suhlen didn't know that there were a few wizards ambushing him. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care. According to the speed of the Pegasus, the wizards' flying spells were far from being able to catch up with it. Unless they had flying magic items, such as magic carpets or airships.
Flying items were not common in this world because wizards preferred to use teleportation spells instead of flying slowly when traveling long distances.
The pegasus carried the two of them across the sky like a shooting star. Finally, two hours later, they arrived at the Northern Town City. Letting the Pegasus rest and play by itself, Suhlen excitedly carried Hathaway back to the bedroom in the Lord's castle. Then, he pulled Phyllis and the two little maids over to play a Russian roulette game.
Early the next morning, Su Lun got up feeling refreshed. Although it cost a lot to attend the auction this time, he got all the things he wanted and bought them. In addition to the elemental crystal cores to build the arcane garden, he also got seven advanced soul crystals. Hathaway planned to build two Gargoyle Magic Statues with these soul crystals, and the rest was to build the Iron Magic Statue.
The Gargoyle Magic Statue belonged to the advanced Rock Magic Statue. Its craftsmanship was higher than the previous Rock Magic Statue. These Gargoyle Magic Statues could also fly. Although their strength was slightly inferior to the Rock Magic Statue, it was already very exaggerated compared to humans.
The Gargoyle Statue was made entirely of obsidian. Although the cost of manufacturing such a statue was several times higher than that of a Rock Statue, its Physical Defense and Magical Defense were much higher. Whether it was used for combat or carrying bricks, it was a good choice.
The wizard tower was over a hundred meters tall. With these two gargoyles, the speed of transporting materials was much faster. In fact, normal wizard towers didn't need to be this tall, but Suhlen wanted to build a floating city. As the control center of the floating city, a wizard tower had to be tall enough.
Hathaway picked out two batches of the best obsidian and sent them to her laboratory. At the same time, she gathered the last remaining craftsmen in Northern Citadel and had them carve according to the blueprint. The structure of the Gargoyle Stone Golem was more complicated, and the craftsmanship required was much higher than that of the Rock Golem. However, Hathaway had already done her research.
Although the production progress was a little slow, there were no problems. Suhlen came here to check a few times and found no problems, so he was relieved. At the same time, he began to prepare for the Arcane Garden.
The Arcane Garden was also known as the Sky Garden. It was a spectacular building that was built with a combination of fountains, flowerbeds, terraced platforms, and complex runic circles. Suhlen had been studying the construction process for a long time.
This building required a large amount of pure white marble and granite. Fortunately, there were enough rocks in the Sierra de Lotas. He just had to let the workers dig. In addition to the marble and granite, the Arcane Garden also required a lot of magic crystals. Magic crystals were used to make energy channels. There were not many magic crystals left in Northern Citadel after the trade between the Arcane Mirror and the Wizard Town.
They would have to wait for the crystal beasts' magic crystals to mature next month. The fountains in the garden were even easier to make. Suhlen's Earth Spring was too easy to make. There were a lot of runic circles in the Arcane Garden, and they needed to be made slowly.
The only way to build the Arcane Garden was to use Earth Elemental Crystal Cores. Only Earth Elemental Crystal Cores could make the soil suitable for the growth of magic plants. Other fire, water, and wind elements were not suitable.
Elemental Crystal Cores were very rare in the main material world. They were only produced in large quantities in the Elemental Plane. Intermediate and low-level Elemental Crystal Cores could be obtained by killing giant Wind Elementals. However, not every Elemental Creature could drop an Elemental Crystal Core.
In the four major elemental planes, the giant elemental creatures could only be regarded as small fish, and the elemental elders were the mini bosses. The more powerful ones were the demigod level elemental djinns like the Wind Djinn. The Wishing Spell in the Sorcerers was to summon the elemental djinn and then fulfill it. There were also four Elemental Gods living in the depths of the Elemental Plane. They were the real big bosses.
Before the era of the Arcane Empire, the demons of the bottomless abyss wanted to conquer the multiverse. As a result, as soon as they came out of the abyss, they bumped into the oldest Elemental Gods. Then, these Elemental Gods brought a large number of Elemental Creatures and directly smashed the demon army.
No one knew how many Elemental Creatures there were in the Elemental Plane. It was said that after Elemental Creatures died in other planes, they would be resurrected in the Elemental Plane. However, their past memories would certainly not be retained. Unless they were at the level of the Elemental Elders, they would not have any memories.
Suhlen took the Earth Elemental Crystal Core and studied it. It was a piece of earthy yellow crystal. The core was not circular. Its surface had many flat surfaces, and the overall appearance was close to a circle. This thing had many uses. It could affect the size of the gravity within a range, and it could make the land in an area fertile. At the same time, the energy consumed in the Earth Elemental Crystal Core would slowly be absorbed from the surrounding air. In theory, as long as the consumption was not excessive, the energy of this Earth Elemental Crystal Core would not be exhausted.
In the future, if he wanted to build a Floating-Space City, he must use Earth Elemental Crystal Cores above the legendary level to create gravity for the Floating-Space City. This way, after the Floating-Space City entered the astral plane, the things inside would not float up.
In addition to gravity, the Floating-Space City would face many other difficulties, such as air circulation, water circulation, and other basic problems. However, it was still early to study these. After all, even the problem of the Floating-Space City's energy core had not been solved. Even if the other problems were solved, it would be useless.
Suhlen was not in a hurry to build the Arcane Garden. The third phase of North Town City's construction was not over yet, and he could not transfer too many people for the time being. Even if he wanted to build the Arcane Garden, he would have to wait until the third phase of the construction was completed. He could only ask people to prepare the materials in advance while he led people to speed up the construction at the construction site.
The third wall of North Town City was a huge project. Suhlen was now very envious of the strength of the temples. These churches that came to North Town City each had more than ten Spell Casters. With so many Spell Casters casting Mud to Rock, the construction speed could not be faster.
In less than a month, these churches had finished building their respective shrines. All that was left was for the craftsmen to carve and decorate. These craftsmen's carving skills were basically at the master level. Although the shrines had different styles, they all revealed a lofty and dignified aura.
As for asking the Spell Casters of these churches to help build the city walls, Suhlen did not have that much influence. Moreover, this method would easily make the priests angry. Building temples was to serve the gods. This was fine, but what was the point of building a city wall? Unless Suhlen wanted to fall out with those churches, he could only give up on this idea.
After staying in North Town City for a few days, Suhlen went to Mirror Lake City for an inspection. The construction of Mirror Lake City was also in progress, but the housing inside was already completed. The planning of Mirror Lake City was in fact a replica of North Town City. The city was divided into markets, and these markets were for residential housing. Now, there were more than twenty thousand people living here.
In addition to the housing, the market, business district, production district, city square, and city hall of Mirror Lake City had not been built yet. The original order was to build the housing first to solve the housing problem. As for food, Mirror Lake City still needed North Town City's support for food. Of course, meat was not needed. This place was close to Mirror Lake, so there was an abundance of fish.
Ockham, the city lord of Mirror Lake City, had done a good job. Next, Mirror Lake City would need to build roads, city hall, business district, production district, and other areas. At the same time, they would need to cultivate more land outside the city. Mirror Lake City needed to feed itself as soon as possible. Suhlen did not develop Mirror Lake City to create a burden for himself.
There were still many kobolds, gnomes, gnolls, and other monsters around Mirror Lake City, so the army would clear them out every day. At the same time, they would capture the slaves to build the city. Compared to North Town City, Ockham was much crueler to the monsters. Some monster slaves died almost every day.
Knock, knock, knock! There was a series of hurried knocks on the door.
"Come in," Suhlen put down the document and looked up.
"Sir, there are monsters in Mirror Lake. Two fishing boats were attacked!" the messenger reported.
"Monsters!" Ockham's expression changed. He immediately stood up and said, "My lord, the fishing boats were attacked by monsters. I must go and take care of it."
"Let's go together." Suhlen stood up and walked out. Then, the group hurried to Mirror Lake.
"Are there monsters in Mirror Lake often?" Suhlen asked as he walked.
Ockham said, "Last month, we found a water monster, but when we wanted to surround and kill it, the water monster left again. We searched for a long time, but we couldn't find the water monster."
"But for the construction of the territory, we had to let it go for now. I didn't expect it to appear again this month."
"Mirror Lake is too big. How are you going to find it with your small fishing boats?" Suhlen shook his head. Mirror Lake was much bigger than Mirror Lake City. On Suhlen's map, Mirror Lake covered an area of twenty square kilometers. It was too easy to hide a few monsters in such a big lake.
