Just as Suhlen was waiting for the replies from the city managers, another piece of news arrived.
Marquis Savoy's army had been stopped by the rebels!
When Suhlen received this news, he was very surprised. Marquis Savoy was a Legendary Knight, and the army he led was quite strong as well. On the other hand, the nobles at the border were not even Conferred Knights, let alone Legendary Knights. Their army was also pieced together. However, this motley crew was able to stop Marquis Savoy's attack.
After reading the information, Suhlen finally understood that the reason why the nobles were able to stop Marquis Savoy's attack was not only because of their geographical advantage, but also because of the intervention of another country.
The few rebellious nobles were bordering the Baine Kingdom. No one knew what price they had paid to get the Baine Kingdom to help them. The Baine Kingdom had sent an army of five thousand men and a few palace mages, successfully stopping Marquis Savoy's army at Kaman Mountain Pass.
The most powerful among the few nobles was Count Cecil. His territory took up half of the rebellious nobles' territories, and Chilly Wind City was the largest city there. It could be said that it had always been the largest city and transit point for trade with the Baine Kingdom.
These nobles were almost completely dependent on the Baine Kingdom economically, so they were closer to the Baine Kingdom. When the Florentine King was replaced, the nobles in Chilly Wind City rebelled. When they found out that Suhlen had ordered Marquis Savoy to go on an expedition, they immediately surrendered to the Baine Kingdom, hoping to borrow the Baine Kingdom's strength to go against Suhlen.
In the beginning, this piece of land had always been contested between the Florentine Kingdom and the Baine Kingdom. Since a hundred years ago, after the Florentine Kingdom had completely won, this piece of land had been occupied by Florence. After the relationship between the two countries had gradually eased, this place had become an outpost for trade between the Florentine Kingdom and the Baine Kingdom.
Originally, the strongest people here were only a few knight commanders. According to Suren and Marquis Savoy's plan, the army could easily wipe out the rebels. However, when they arrived, they discovered that the nobles had built a fortress at Carmen Pass. Carmen Pass was a mountain pass in the Corillo Mountains. The narrowest part of it was only 150 meters wide. It was the largest and smoothest mountain pass from the Kingdom of Florence to Chilly Wind City.
The other passages were all rugged mountain roads, and it was impossible for an army to pass through. Therefore, after they blocked this passage, the Kingdom of Florence could only attack by force. Originally, the Marquis of Savoy thought that he could rely on his own strength to break through the barrier. After all, a legendary knight could easily defeat thousands of enemies. However, he never thought that Count Cecil had already joined forces with the Byrne Kingdom.
There were five high-grade wizards guarding this checkpoint. Legendary knights were powerful, but as a proper knight, the Marquis of Savoy did not have any magical abilities. When faced with spells, he was often at a disadvantage. If he was not careful, he would even be injured by a high-grade wizard.
Otherwise, the warriors wouldn't have the title of "Silk Warrior". Although the traditional warriors and knights were strong in close combat, the wizards had too many ways to deal with them. Just a Maze spell was enough to make them dizzy. On the other hand, the wizards were different. They had mastered a large number of spells that allowed them to deal with almost any situation. A legendary wizard who was prepared was almost invincible. This was why the wizards had such a high status in this world.
It was because of the existence of these wizards that the Marquis of Savoy could not use his power. In addition, the 150-meter long city wall directly blocked the Marquis of Savoy's army outside.
Now, the Marquis of Savoy had no choice but to ask for help from Suhlen.
After knowing that the Byrne Kingdom had supported Coldwind City, Suhlen's face became gloomy. Things had become a little troublesome. This was his first battle since he ascended the throne. If he did not obtain a clean victory, the lords in the north who had already surrendered would likely rebel again.
Suhlen did not have the slightest doubt about this. Creatures like nobles were born with the talent of flattering the strong and stepping on the weak. Once they found out that Suhlen was not as powerful as they thought, the entire Kingdom of Florence would be in a complete mess.
It could be said that the Marquis of Savoy's expedition could only be a victory for Suhlen. After hearing about the Marquis of Savoy, Suhlen had already made a decision. Hathaway was studying the enigma technology and had no time to go there. Moreover, there were only a few high-grade wizards. Sending Hathaway there was a complete waste of her talent. Therefore, Suhlen thought for a moment and decided to send Alex, Karina, or Grace.
The two fourth-grade spellcasters could easily take care of the level-3 wizards. After making the decision, Suhlen found Alex and asked her to go with Karina to help the Marquis of Savoy.
.....
In the North Wind Tower, after receiving Su Lun's order, Karina didn't hesitate and directly went to the front line with Alex. There were also ten winged people with them. These winged people were Alex's people, and they were going to protect their queen.
Hathaway had just finished her study. The enigma knowledge involved a lot of knowledge. During this period, Hathaway would spend two hours every day studying it. Then, she would take some time to study other knowledge. In the afternoon, she would study the corpse of the Brain Hunter that Suhlen sent back in the laboratory.
This Brain Hunter's corpse was quite valuable. It could be used to make a few outstanding magic items. Hathaway was thinking about how to make it.
There were many monsters of this level in the multiverse, but there were also very few of them. The strongest monster in the multiverse was the Ancient Abhorrence. Their full name was "Abhorrence from the Ancient Era."
It was said that they were powerful monsters that had existed since the Ancient Era. That period belonged to the era of the giant dragons. The entire multiverse was ruled by the giant dragons. During that period, the giant dragons were far more powerful than they were now. Just like the Dragon Kings, their bodies alone could reach tens of thousands of meters or even larger.
Later, because the existence of the giant dragons affected the development of the multiverse, the multiverse began to restrict the giant dragons. In order to survive, the giant dragons could only shrink their bodies generation by generation. The Ancient Abhorrence was passed down from that period.
To be able to be hated by the powerful giant dragons, one could imagine how powerful these monsters were. Of course, the most powerful Abhorrence creatures were the Abhorrence Dragons. There were also Abhorrence Dragons, Blue Diamond Dragons, Spirit Demon Dragons, Stardust Dragons, Rainbow Dragons, and so on. There was also the Hecatoncheires.
These monsters were not easy to deal with. For example, the Abhorrence Dragon was a walking nuclear weapon. The dragon's breath was equivalent to an atomic explosion. This thing was really an existence that could destroy an entire plane. Many of the Ancient Abhorrence actually had the bloodline of the gods. It could be said that they were a type of Abhorrence.
Other than monsters like the Ancient Abhorrence, the next level were monsters like the Ancient Evils. These monsters were also very difficult to deal with. They were almost at the Advanced Legendary level. Below them were the Abhorrence monsters, which corresponded to the Legendary level.
The lowest level of ordinary monsters generally did not exceed the Legendary level. Most of the material planes were like this. The Brain Hunter that Suhlen killed last time was, strictly speaking, an Ancient Evil-Level monster.
Monsters at the level of the Archaean Hatred were very rare now. They had basically been destroyed or sealed by the Order Ancient Gods. Of course, there were still some Archaean Hatred that had fallen into a deep slumber, and some were living in some corners of the Astral Plane. For example, the Abhorrence Dragons and Blue Diamond Dragons. These kinds of creatures were not even provoked by the gods.
In order to get rid of the Ancient Abhorrence, the order ancient gods had paid a heavy price.
Now, many monsters like the Ancient Evils in the multiverse had been sealed. Many monk monasteries were suppressing the Ancient Evils.
"How many pieces of equipment can be made with these materials?" Suhlen looked at the Brain Hunter that had been cut up and asked.
"Five or six pieces!" Hathaway didn't even raise her head as she said, "This Brain Hunter's body is badly damaged. Otherwise, it would be able to make at least two pieces of Legendary equipment. The remaining materials can only be used to make one piece of Legendary equipment. The rest can be used to make high-grade magic items."
"One then." Suhlen nodded without hesitation.
"Other than these materials, we need other materials." Hathaway looked at some of the inventory and said.
"See if these are enough!" Suhlen took out all kinds of magic materials he had accumulated.
Seeing Suhlen take out Adamantine, Mithril, Orichalcum, Star Iron, high-quality magic gems, and many other materials, Hathaway widened her eyes in surprise.
"So many … Did you rob the giant dragon's vault?"
"The giant dragon wouldn't have so many rare materials." Suhlen said proudly.
"Indeed." Hathaway nodded. "The giant dragon has more gold. They don't have this kind of Advanced Magic Metal."
Su Lun smiled faintly.
"What kind of equipment are you going to make this time?" Hathaway looked at the materials in front of her and said.
"Can you make something to defend against Psychic attacks?" Suhlen asked.
There were not many Psychic Items. This kind of attack was very subtle and could be sneak attacked if one was not careful. Suhlen originally only had one defensive ring. Now that it was completed, he naturally wanted to take it back.
"Yes, these materials can be made into leather armor, some rings, amulets, accessories, and so on."
The skin of a Brain Hunter was very tough. Ordinary swords would not be able to leave a wound on it. Moreover, its skin had very high magic resistance. It was very suitable to be used to make leather armor. As for making wizard robes, it was probably not enough. The body of a Brain Hunter was too damaged to make a wizard robe.
