Broad World - Chapter 804
Chapter 801 Meeting (on)
The sudden war disrupted Henry’s original plan, but fortunately, the floating city can now be lifted into the sky, so if the purpose of the ghost city is to destroy it, then it will undoubtedly fail miserably.
Also as a floating city, there is an essential difference between using the “Missera’s Core” as the core of power and the “Secret Technique Core” as the core. The former is extremely dependent on the magic net. Once the energy extracted exceeds the limit of the magic net, the floating city will be There is a danger of falling, and similar accidents have occurred many times in the era of Netheril.
The latter’s own energy core, even if the magic net collapses, will not affect too much, and it can still continue to fly, so in this regard, Olympus City has an absolute advantage.
It is precisely because of this that Henry had the intention to take the opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow, because he knew that Revalan absolutely still hides the last resort and has not tried it out, and it is very likely to directly teleport the ghost city back to the main plane. Launch an attack, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to completely destroy a city that can accommodate about 60,000 people.
You must know that Olympus City is probably ten times the size and volume of Ghost City. After all, the size of a mountain is limited, and artificial construction can be much larger.
Except for a layer of mud on the surface, the inside of Olympus City is all the hardest granite. Magic below level 8 hits at most a small pit. The only way to destroy it is to use “fossils into mud” on a large scale. .
But with such a large area, it would be difficult to succeed even if the wizards of the Ghost City were dispatched, so the use of the infinite energy of the floating city itself became the only choice. When launching an attack, the Ghost City must return from the Shadow Plane to the Main Plane. And this time is the best time to give the opponent a heavy blow.
In order to ensure that the temporary change plan can be implemented smoothly. Henry summoned everyone to the palace transformed from the original ducal palace. Even the pregnant Shikodi appeared in the meeting room.
Without any nonsense, he threw the intelligence on the table and said with a serious expression: “Since the people are all here, then I will make a long story short. Maybe some of you already know who the enemy is, and maybe some are still in the dark. But it doesn’t matter. Now I can tell you clearly that for a long time in the future, the last floating city left over from the era of Netheril—Ghost City will be our main enemy. The recent turbulence in the city will also be It has something to do with them.”
“Ghost City?!” Debra’s face changed slightly when she heard the name. “Master, you mean Great Arcanist Teramante… has become… our enemy?!!!”
As a protection mage, she is very aware of the last history of the Netheril era, and also understands what the Great Arcanist means. This name is definitely much higher than the gold content of the modern legendary mage, and directly controls and manipulates the original magical energy. The difficulty is completely different from using the convenient magic net spell. In addition to the floating city itself and the huge wizard group, perhaps only the high-level wizards of the elves on the Yongju Island can match it.
Henry nodded slightly and explained: “Yes, it’s not just Tanshur and his son and Ghost City. The goddess and her church behind them are also likely to join at any time, so you have to be prepared. This will be A protracted confrontation.”
Floating City vs. Floating City, normally it is difficult for both parties to completely eliminate each other, so he intends to teach each other a bitter lesson, and then firmly control the initiative in his own hands, otherwise once Ghost City starts to use scorched earth Policy, then the consequences will be disastrous.
“Your Majesty, do we need to adjust our policies to tilt the power of the kingdom toward the direction of war?” Hawke, who is in charge of internal affairs, raised his most concern.
At present, the entire Kingdom of West Hartland is in the stage of recuperation. In order to allow the population to explode, the administrative system has continued to encourage farmers to reclaim wasteland, vigorously promote fine seeds, new agricultural tools, more scientific farming and fertilization methods, and at the same time A large number of tax reductions and exemptions, if adjustments are made now, the efforts of the previous few months may all be wasted.
“No, it is not necessary for the time being, and the battle with Ghost City has not yet affected the civilians.”
Henry answered in the negative without hesitation. He is very aware of the damage to the country’s credit caused by the changes in the day and night, and after this fight, he believes that Ghost City should not be able to recover within a few years, and there is no need to adjust the current policy.
Borken took a deep breath and frowned and asked: “Did you really think about it? Do you want to fight with a floating city?”
“Yes, since Revalan wants to play, I will accompany him to have fun. The northern city of Wywood has become the focus now, so I think it is better to let the floating city appear there directly, because only then will the ghost city be relieved Boldly come back from the shadow plane ahead of time, as long as you seize this opportunity to give them a heavy blow, you don’t have to worry about it in the next few years.” A sneer appeared on Henry’s face.
“Although Olympus City has completed the laying of the locks and energy transmission devices, it will take at least a month to truly engage in actual combat. Are you sure that Wywood City can last that long?” Borken is obviously not optimistic about the orcs. The defensive ability, especially the number of enemies, can turn the entire city into a dead city just by employing people.
Henry’s mouth turned up slightly, and he explained in a playful manner: “It will not be practical for that long. As long as the two things I handed over to you are placed, Olympus City can be put into actual combat. In addition, I will not Just watching the monster coalition besiege the city, the necessary assistance will still be sent out.”
“Two things? You mean the flying platform and those strange metal coils?” Borken asked slightly puzzled.
“Yes, it’s them.” Henry nodded. “With the current construction efficiency, two weeks is almost enough, right?”
Borken gave the answer without thinking: “Enough, I can guarantee the completion within twelve days.”
“In this case, the counterattack plan is set for twelve days later, so that the wizards will be ready to fight with the remnants of the Netheril era, but it is a difficult training opportunity.” Henry gave a wink at Borken. , The latter immediately understood, stood up and owed himself, turned around and left the conference room to preside over the construction work on the construction site.
Vaughan, the orc warrior who had been waiting for a long time, couldn’t help the excitement anymore. He opened his mouth and laughed and asked: “Head! Is there really a hundred thousand enemies? The blood in my whole body is beginning to boil! I’ll go fight and have a good time!”
For the legendary fighters, it is extremely difficult to go one step further. You must go through the cruelest fight and let yourself hang by a thread in order to sublimate the martial arts, and war, especially large-scale melee, is definitely the best test. In the refining field, some lunatics are even willing to participate in the largest and longest-lasting war in the entire multiverse in order to break through.
Vaughan is already in his thirties this year. Although his physical fitness and lifespan have been strengthened to a certain extent after being promoted to the Legendary Warrior, he is not satisfied. He wants to continue climbing to the top of the martial arts all the time, so naturally he will not let it go. Such a war of an unprecedented scale in the history of the entire continent.
Looking at his subordinate and friend who had followed him for nearly ten years, Henry’s mouth turned up slightly: “Then what are you waiting for? Take your weapons and armor and set off. I can’t think of any reason to stop a hot-blooded warrior. In addition, the Horde The leader of the coalition forces is called Cyclops Longte, a living legend in the High Wasteland, and it is said that he is also a legendary warrior. Defeat him and then bring him to me. Isn’t it okay?”
“Hahahahahaha!” Vaughan laughed boldly. “No problem! Head! I promise with my honor that he will kneel in front of you soon.”
After speaking, he roared in excitement, and ran towards the barracks in a stride, and when he was ready to dress neatly, he arrived at the battlefield directly from the portal of the mage tower.
Looking at the look of the half-orc warrior, Henry couldn’t help but shook his head with a smile: “Ten years, he hasn’t changed at all. Debra, you should also go to the front with you. Although Vaughan has the ability to recover, but I still feel a little worried about him. Remember to bring the Terminator just in case, and help me take care of Alan by the way.”
“Understand, I will provide protection for the two of them secretly.” Without any hesitation, Debra immediately stood up and bowed.
“Well, it is enough to protect their lives. There is no need to provide magical assistance to Wywood City. Unless the opponent breaks through the city gate, the tug of war will continue. I now need that city to attract the enemy firmly. You know that this is an opportunity to completely solve all the primitive tribes in the Supreme Wasteland.
Henry did not intend to let go of so many free labors, 100,000 slaves that can be used to death, and with them, the infrastructure construction of the entire West Hartland area can begin, especially the bad public transportation. Need a good rest.
After Debra left the meeting room, Hawke also hurriedly got up to say goodbye. As the prime minister of the kingdom, he has countless official documents to sign every day. There is not much time to waste, and enemies like Ghost City www . He can’t help much with his power.
Now there are only Amy, Feder, Shikoudi, Hina the Dragon Girl, and Robert, who has always been gloomy, in the entire conference room.
The thief leader is in a bad mood these days, because the master assassin of Ghost City turned him around. With the ability to travel freely on the plane of shadow, the opponent raided the two guilds in the city within a few days. The stronghold resulted in a tragedy of several deaths and more than 20 injuries.
Of course, this is also related to his absence from the headquarters. After all, Henry has given him a task of monitoring around the clock, so he can’t get out of it temporarily.
After a long silence, Shikoudi finally couldn’t help but ask: “My dear, what’s the purpose of calling me here today? I’m just an ordinary person. I am afraid I can’t help much in dealing with powerful enemies. .”
“It’s not to let you help, but to let you understand your current situation.” As he said, Henry winked at the thief leader. “Robert, explain to my queen, she still doesn’t know that she has been targeted by the enemy.” (To be continued…)
