Carlos was very excited. Although the battle was short, they had suffered a lot of casualties. He had no time to regret it. He had to send the news back as soon as possible.
His brothers had suffered a lot of casualties, and they needed a lot of money as compensation. The battle just now had caused quite a commotion. It was very likely that other adventurers would notice them. Whoever completed the quest first would get all the rewards. If they were late, they might not even get a single copper coin.
"We need to hurry. We can't let others get ahead of us!" Carlos said as he rubbed his head.
"No matter what, we have to be the first to send the news back!"
"We have suffered a lot this time. Many of our brothers have died. We need this money to send them back as compensation!"
"This is the only thing we can do to help them!"
"Boss, we know what to do!" A warrior said.
"I won't say anything else. Let's go!" Carlos said as he ran towards the Northern City.
The others looked at each other and followed closely behind.
North Wind Tower.
Suhlen had resumed his daily routine. He would patrol the city or Maple City every day and draw some blueprints for the city. In the afternoon, he would read books and learn all kinds of magic knowledge.
As a wizard, Suhlen needed to learn a lot of knowledge. Luckily, he had the ability [Sage], which allowed him to learn very quickly. Otherwise, the knowledge would be enough to give him a headache.
The construction of Maple City had been completed. It was now the gateway to the west of the Duchy of North Wind. All the caravans heading to the Northern City would go through here.
It was a lot safer for caravans to go through Maple City. With the existence of Maple City, the number of bandits and monsters in the wilderness had decreased a lot. At the same time, the road between Maple City and the Northern City had been repaired, so it was a lot easier to travel.
The road from Northern Town City to Maple City was one of the main roads in Northern Town City. It was more than fifty kilometers long and four meters wide. It was wide enough for two carriages to travel side by side. The entire road was paved with pebbles. The middle of the road was slightly arched. Camel Beasts pulled stone rollers back and forth to grind the pebbles. Even on a rainy day, there would be no puddles or mud on the road.
This road was already better than 99% of the roads in other countries. In order to repair this official road, Suhlen had used more than 50,000 slaves of all kinds and spent half a year to complete it.
This kind of official road was better than other countries in this era. Compared to his previous life, not to mention the main roads in the city, even the roads in the countryside could not compare.
In addition to these, Suhlen continued to accumulate all kinds of construction materials, preparing to send these things to Deepwater City. At the same time, the port in North Town City was being expanded. If the trade channel was opened, the small port in North Town City would not be enough. Suhlen had people expand the port by ten times and added several docks for loading and unloading goods. At the same time, the road leading to the port was being widened and repaired.
Suhlen attached great importance to this new city. It was likely to be another important source of income for North Town City.
In addition to the docks at the port, the shipyard in North Town City also needed to be expanded. Suhlen had moved part of the shipyard to Deepwater City, but there also needed to be a shipyard in North Town City. The shipyard in Deepwater City built sea-going ships. The requirements for the ships were very high, and the keel had to be strong.
The shipyard in North Town City mainly built inland ships. There was a big difference between inland ships and sea-going ships. The most important thing was that inland ships had flat bottoms, while sea-going ships had V-shaped bottoms. Inland ships could carry more goods because of the flat bottoms, but they were less stable and could easily capsize in big waves.
Of course, it was impossible for ships to encounter big waves like the ones in the sea. Sea-Going ships had to sail in the sea, and the waves in the sea were completely incomparable to those in inland rivers. The mountain-like waves could easily overturn and smash inland ships.
Therefore, in order to stabilize the ship, sea-going ships had to use V-shaped bottoms. At the same time, the ship had to be very strong. Otherwise, it would fall apart when the waves came.
Under normal circumstances, sea-going ships would not enter inland rivers. Sea-Going ships were too deep in the water, and inland rivers were too shallow. They could easily hit rocks if they were not careful.
North Town City had been recruiting workers from Florence during this time, and they had a lot of craftsmen. Although a group was sent to Deepwater City, it was not difficult for the rest to build a shipyard.
In addition to these things in North Town City, Suhlen also needed to deal with things in the secret plane. Now, the secret plane had the obsidian factory, the golem factory, the ecological park, the plantation area, the crystal beast breeding area, the central square (under repair), the residential area, the botanical garden (with natural oaks), and so on. It would definitely need to be built in the future, and the location of the secret plane had to be planned.
At the same time, Suhlen also needed to think about how to move the secret plane to the floating city in the future and open up a half-plane.
"Milky Way!"
"Check the structure of the energy transmission network of the secret plane. See if it meets the requirements and if there are any areas that can be optimized."
Suhlen put down the pen in his hand and looked at the dense underground energy transmission network in front of him. He fell into deep thought.
The energy source of the secret plane was in the central area. There was a large elemental pool here, so there must be a perfect energy transmission pipeline to supply energy to other places. Efficiency must be considered in this design. If the energy transmission was too wasteful, it would put a burden on the elemental pool.
As for the other elemental pool, it was responsible for supplying energy to the golem factory.
"Start calculating! … "
A series of data streams appeared, and Milky Way started calculating the current energy transmission network of the secret plane. She also marked the location of the central crystal and made modifications to it.
Knock, knock, knock!
At this time, there was a rush of knocking on the door. Suhlen frowned and opened the door to the astrology platform. Alex's excited voice came through. "Suhlen, news from the city hall. They found the ruins!"
"A group of adventurers found the ruins you are looking for. There are a lot of mutant monsters around the ruins. We may be in for a tough battle."
Mutant monsters!
Su Lun was shocked. He stopped Milky Way's calculations and asked, "You found the ancient ruin? How intact are the ruins? "
"The adventurers haven't gone in yet. There are mutant monsters guarding outside the ruins. There is also a layer of magic outside the ruins that hasn't lost its effect. Only a small part of it has appeared outside."
"Tell the adventurers that the ruins they found are very damaged."
