Suhlen rode on the little female dragon and flew around in the sky. Then, he brought her back to the palace and taught her a lesson. This red dragon was a troublemaker, so she needed to be taught a lesson every once in a while. Suhlen was happy to see the little red dragon make mistakes.
Because as long as this was the case, he would have a legitimate reason to train and teach the little Red Dragon. After all, as an upright king, how could he train and teach a Red Dragon without making any mistakes and without any reason? Teaching a giant dragon was a very interesting thing.
The Northern City had been accepting people. Suhlen sent many nobles to the North Wind Kingdom. After a period of training, these nobles began to enrich the North Wind Kingdom.
Unlike the Kingdom of Florence, the Northern City was completely built by Suhlen. He had absolute control. These nobles could not do anything here. They could only contribute to the construction of the North Wind Principality.
However, for these nobles, working for the North Wind Principality was a very good way out. These people were sent here and lost all their wealth. Many of them did not have any skills. If the Northern City did not train them, at least half of these nobles would have starved to death.
.....
North Wind Tower, Hathaway's laboratory.
Suhlen was doing a simulation experiment with Hathaway. With a flash of light, Suhlen took off his magic glasses. "This time, it looks good. It should be a success!"
"I don't know. Let's test it first!" Hathaway said as she moved her body.
As she spoke, Hathaway picked up the crystal on the experiment table and began to test it. The machine used for testing was very large. After Hathaway put the crystal in, she turned it on.
A powerful energy wave came. Then, the machine started up. An irritating sound was heard. The machine was like a train. It was very noisy. Finally, after five minutes, the machine stopped.
Hathaway turned on the machine. The crystal, which was originally bright and clear, had become damaged. It was full of cracks. It seemed that the crystal would shatter completely with a gentle touch.
"Looks like the experiment didn't succeed," Suhlen said as he glanced at the crystal.
Hathaway shook her head and said, "We've made great progress in this experiment. The hardness and magic resistance of this crystal have already reached 80% of the data we needed. As long as we continue our research, I believe we will be able to obtain the crystal we want very soon. "
"Alright! You've indeed improved. " Suhlen checked the crystal and said. Although the crystal looked cracked, Suhlen looked at it carefully and found that it was still very hard.
Suhlen and Hathaway were experimenting with the creation of Arcane Crystals. These crystals were hard, tough, and had high magic resistance. They were the main materials used to create Diamond Golems.
The Diamond Golem was a Legendary Golem. Suhlen and Hathaway had been trying to craft it for a long time. Northwind Tower didn't have all the information on the Diamond Golem, so they could only research it bit by bit. Although it was called a Diamond Golem, this Legendary Golem wasn't made of diamond.
It was just that this material looked like diamond and had the hardness of diamond. In fact, this Golem used a kind of Arcane Crystal. Although diamond was hard, it wasn't suitable for making Golems. This material had very low toughness. Although it was hard, it was easy to shatter after being hit by other hard objects.
Moreover, diamond wasn't resistant to high temperatures. After the temperature reached thousands of degrees Celsius, it would melt, so it wasn't suitable for making Golems. Although diamond was produced in large quantities, it had no advantage over crystal.
Hathaway's requirements for the Arcane Crystal were very high. The arcanists had long mastered the craft of artificial crystals. Even artificial diamonds were the same. However, the magic affinity of artificial diamonds was quite different from natural diamonds.
After dozens of adjustments, this artificial Arcane Crystal was close to being used to make Diamond Golems. The Arcane Crystal required for Diamond Golems had to have a molar hardness of at least level-8. At the same time, the requirements for magic resistance were very high.
If the required Arcane Crystal was successfully produced, then the work of building the Diamond Golem would be almost half done. Suhlen was still looking forward to having these Diamond Golems in his Golem Army. Only with Diamond Golems could the Golem Army participate in battles above the Legendary level.
The Golem Army in the floating city was based on a Steel Golem, mixed with some Diamond Golems, Mithril Golems, Adamantine Golems, Arcane Guardian Golems, and Spellbreaker Golems. Even the Demon Army of the Bottomless Abyss couldn't resist this level of Golem Army. This was also the powerful force that the Great Arcanists used to colonize many planes.
Afternoon.
Alex returned to the Wizard Tower with good news. Some of the workshops in Harvest City in the south had been sold, and the supplies needed by the Northwind Duchy were also being delivered.
The Northwind Duchy caravan was in charge of the transportation, led by Zeon. The Northwind Duchy caravan was now several times stronger than before.
With Suhlen's support, Zeon's caravan had a large number of soldiers from the Northwind Duchy. These soldiers were very powerful. Even the local nobles' armies were no match for them, let alone bandits. If this caravan turned into bandits, they could easily plunder a large number of nobles' territories.
Now, this caravan was in charge of a part of the Northwind Duchy's foreign trade. Many of the Northwind Duchy's products were transported to the south by them. Suhlen was even now considering whether to continue to contact the south and trade with the Andza Kingdom.
These kingdoms were more prosperous than Florence. These southern countries were close to the sea and had prosperous maritime trade. Although the Red Dragon Queen had cut them off, they were still very rich. If Suhlen wanted to build a floating city, he would need hundreds of billions of Kinnar. If he didn't plunder these countries, how could he build a floating city?
"What about the cultists?" Suhlen asked as he sat in front of his desk.
Alex sat on the sofa next to him and ate some snacks. As his power and territory continued to expand, so did the number of things he had to deal with. Suhlen didn't want to be tied up in the study every day, so he would leave some things to his women.
Alex now had some information and caravans. He was also tracking down the cultists in the Florence Duchy and the Northwind Duchy.
After swallowing the biscuit, Alex picked up the honey fruit tea next to him and took a sip. "Ever since the Church of the Soul Snatchers was taken care of, the other cultists have become much more secretive."
"They still have many spies in the south."
"These people are just hiding temporarily. When things calm down, they will appear again!"
Suhlen nodded. "They really are like dog skin plasters."
"Send people to keep an eye on the cultists. The Imperial Secret Guards will listen to your orders. Once you find their nest, report it immediately. "
Currently, there were basically no cultists in the Northwind Duchy. Suhlen had too much control over the place, so the cultists couldn't survive at all. However, it was different in Florence. There was too much land for the cultists to survive.
Zeon's caravans had recruited a large number of mercenaries and adventurers in addition to some soldiers from the Northwind City. Although these people weren't very strong, they could be useful in many situations.
According to Suhlen, these people were the city's foxes and rats. They were familiar with the various dark sides of the city and the gray areas. They could provide a lot of useful information and combat power for the Kingdom of Florence.
Suhlen had been promoting the old city renovation plan of the Kingdom of Florence, but the progress was limited. After all, this kind of renovation cost a lot of money and would also damage the power of the nobles. Therefore, the nobles were not very active. Suhlen could only push it forward bit by bit.
At the same time, the Northwind Duchy and the underground world were operating at full capacity. The Northwind Duchy was also continuing to expand.
In the Northwind City, there were now three legendary masters. Alex was also getting closer and closer to becoming a legendary master. Suhlen gave the remaining divinity to Alex again. With two divinity points, her bloodline had become even stronger.
Suhlen planned to give the remaining three divinity points to Hathaway, Karina, and Phyllis. Divinity was very important to them.
Mystery Realm, Nature Oak.
This area was shrouded in rich life energy and natural energy. Suhlen had sealed this area, so the outside world couldn't sense any life energy.
This was the forbidden area of the entire Northwind Duchy.
Even Alex and the others couldn't enter at will without Suhlen's permission. The Nature Oak here already had its own consciousness. After absorbing the nature crystal, this Nature Oak had become a divine plant. It even had the possibility of becoming a Tree of Life or a World Tree.
Of course, the time and resources needed to become a Tree of Life or a World Tree were extremely shocking. Suhlen couldn't afford to raise it now. With such a plant, if he found a lifeless realm in the astral plane, he could use it to transform that realm into one full of life. Of course, it would take a long time to do this.
The entire area was shrouded in rich life energy and nature energy. Suhlen planned to wait until the tree stabilized and then arrange for some half-elves to come in. The power emitted by this tree could slowly purify and change the bloodline, making the original elven bloodline richer.
Now, this tree had grown to more than 30 meters. It was considered a big tree outside, but it was just the beginning in the Nature Oak.
