arcane emperor

The huge deformed flying dragon was dragged back to this huge southern city.

The residents living in the giant city saw the deformed flying dragon's body and its hideous condition.

Even though they lived in the dangerous Southern Monster Forest and had seen all kinds of monsters and ghosts, they still felt quite surprised and scared.

This distortion and deformation of flesh and blood has a huge impact on them psychologically.

The Mohist disciples who obtained the information about the distorted monsters quickly passed the information back to the Mohist branch here.

The head of the Mohist branch looked through the information sent by the Bay Leader, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but he finally walked towards the City Lord's Mansion of the giant city.

The Mohist School, whose strength is constantly expanding, still needs to absorb more talents and train more disciples for the time being, and it cannot do without the help of local forces.

The Gulf Territory does not restrict the spread of this information and knowledge. Instead, it hopes that as many forces and people as possible will understand the real situation.

The information provided by the Gulf Leader is very detailed. It not only records where these deformed monsters come from, but also focuses on their deformation process and principles.

Although it is somewhat brief in terms of the most detailed data, it can definitely be regarded as a very "amazing" research manual.

The inspectors from the Demon Patrol Bureau were shocked when they saw these records, patterns, and images, and they immediately reported them to the city officials.

The local officials attached great importance to the information about the deformed monsters provided by the Mohists, and quickly reported the information and magical images provided to the provincial capital.

It was not until this time that the situation of the Northern Continent, the existence of the Gulf Territory, and various novel magical products were known to the Eastern Continent.

In particular, the Gulf Territory, which had sparked a magical industrial revolution, and the basic situation of its productivity development also began to be understood by the Eastern Continent.

Among them, the disciples of Mohism made great contributions.

They are no longer hiding their technologies as they did before, and are now vigorously promoting new technologies such as agricultural planting, farmland golems, and magical crop cultivation.

The Eastern Continental Empire, which learned about the situation from the Mohists, wanted to make contact with the Gulf Territory.

But the current situation no longer allows this.

"Ugh……"

General Tu sighed, and sent out more information sent by the Mohists, as well as some magic props and goods produced in the Gulf Territory, using the Royal Eagle Guards.

Turning his head to look at his old friend, Governor Zhang, who was in awe, General Tu couldn't help but shook his head, sat down cross-legged and said:

"Is the information provided by the Mohists true or false?"

"What is the purpose of the Bay Leader they contacted?"

Governor Zhang took a sip of the wine, feeling the rich fruity aroma and abundant magic power, and replied with a slight smile:
"Spiritual energy is so abundant, and it is regulated so naturally without any side effects. Even ordinary people can enjoy it. The skills are profound and the methods are exquisite. They should not be underestimated!"

"From this, we can see that the Bay Territory's style of doing things is exactly the same as the ideas of the Mohist disciples. They all want to use spiritual power and mechanical technology for civilians. The idea is quite good, but it's a pity that it's not suitable for the Eastern Continent..."

General Tu naturally understood what was going on, but he paid more attention to the land of sin in the east, the extremely difficult to open up wild beast forest in the south, the evil god's kingdom in the southwest, and the remnants of the barbarians in the west.

Unfortunately, unrest and disasters are emerging one after another everywhere.

The empire's many combat forces are now extremely stretched and unable to send out a sufficiently powerful delegation.

They also had no intention of cooperating with the Mohist School and going to the Gulf Territory through their channels.

The Mohist School, which was developing at a very fast pace, had no intention of offering to help.

They have seen a lot of corruption and institutional deficiencies, and when they are unable to change the overall situation, providing some help is already the best they can do.

They also did not dare to reveal the situation of the mechanical demiplane to the Eastern Continental Empire.

After all, conflicts and wars caused by interests have occurred countless times.

They also need to concentrate their efforts now to assist the Gulf Territory in continuing to stabilize the situation in the mechanical demiplane.

As the influence of the elemental tides continues to grow stronger, more and more mechanically distorted monsters awaken from their seals, obeying the orders of the mechanical sparks and attacking the combat area.

Although the Gulf Lords had been well prepared and the Mohist disciples had mobilized a large number of troops, they still came under considerable pressure.

However, it is also with the help of this pressure that the Mohist disciples, who have sufficient resources and technical guidance, have greatly improved their strength and professional ability.

Otherwise, they would not be able to withstand these deformed monsters.

In addition to the mechanical demiplane, similar incidents also occurred in several other demiplanes controlled by the Gulf Territory.

Therefore, over the past few months, the Gulf Territory has been stepping up the development of combat forces, as well as the redeployment and control of defense lines.

Their idea was very simple, to temporarily stabilize the territory's defenses and continue to maintain the harvesting of many resources and the operation of the production lines.

Once the combat troops of the Gulf Territory have completed the deployment of weapons and equipment and received orders to continue expanding the territory, they will be able to make full use of these stockpiled supplies.

A strong enough Gulf Lord could control the turbulent situation in the demiplane, and take advantage of the situation to calm himself down and quietly improve his strength.

The other territorial forces that were not strong enough were at a loss at this time.

The territory of the material plane has suffered attacks and various dangers, and combat forces are needed to maintain the situation and eliminate the enemy as soon as possible.

However, the turmoil in the demiplane also requires sufficient power to quell it.

Under such circumstances, some courageous lords and nobles still chose to concentrate their combat forces to stabilize the basic foundation of the material plane first.

After the strength is improved and enough combat forces are trained, we will return to the demiplane and take back the lost territory.

After all, the material plane with a higher upper limit, more knowledge inheritance, larger scale, larger territory and population is the real center of many planes.

Various areas of the Gulf Territory also came under attack.

However, thanks to the strength and preparation of various places, the deformed monsters and various dangers were solved relatively easily.

They also took advantage of this opportunity to train the professionals in the Gulf Territory, making them feel a greater sense of crisis.

The continuous improvement in strength and comprehensive control of the region have brought the strength and status of the Gulf Territory to the strongest level in the northern continent.

The attitudes of many organizations and forces towards the Gulf Territory have gradually changed.

Especially as the army of deformed monsters continued to fall, they began to wreak havoc everywhere.

The scarlet moon once again burst out with dazzling red light, making the already dangerous night even more dangerous.

Originally there were some magical creatures that could ignore the rays of the Bloody Moon with their special talents and strong physiques.

But now the power projected by the Scarlet Moon is rapidly increasing, and will soon cause countless pollution to many deformed monsters.

These distorted monsters change very quickly. It often takes 1 to 2 days for them to completely transform into bloodthirsty and brainless distorted monsters.

They will ruthlessly hunt and devour all living things around them.

Creatures weaker than them will be killed by them, their bodies devoured by them, and become part of their deep distortion.

Creatures stronger than them will be killed without mercy.

However, if the wounds they create or the flesh and blood are immediately devoured, there is a high probability that the other party will be infected.

This infection transformation process is much slower than being directly exposed to the Scarlet Moon, but it is equally difficult and dangerous.

The vast majority of injured magical creatures, once they came into contact with the infected substance, entered a countdown to death. The terrible contamination was spreading further.

However, the material plane's error correction and recovery capabilities are very strong, and even this degree of distortion and contamination can often be resolved or eliminated by powerful magical creatures.

And those controlled distorted monsters launched attacks on the areas where intelligent creatures were located, devouring more flesh and blood and plundering more souls.

The disasters and panic they create are accumulating and expanding little by little.

Even with the call and influence of the Gulf Territory, not all territories will respond and take action.

For example, those small lords and nobles who are worried that the Gulf Territory will look down on them, or those fools who remain indifferent.

You might be lucky enough not to bump into the deformed monster that falls from the sky, but you will definitely run into the deformed creatures around you.

At that time, whether you can survive or not will really depend on fate.

Most of the medium-sized forces and territories can basically withstand the pressure and attacks, and surround and eliminate the opponent little by little.

The vast majority of major forces are as stable as a rock. If they encounter a relatively wise ruler, they will seize this rare opportunity and begin to expand their territory continuously.

However, they are now more focused on themselves and do not have too many thoughts and ideas about expansion.

The Gulf Leader has already given the answer. They just need to combine their own situation and copy the successful route.

As for the transformation of its own territory and the improvement of its system, it may not be possible to complete it in one step like the Gulf Territory, but it will definitely be better than it is now.

Of course, there will be many difficulties and changes along the way. Some may succeed, while others may fail. Each has its own changes.

There is also the most unfortunate situation, which is like the Empire of Netheril.

Not only was it affected by terrible external forces, but it was also unable to unite internally.

The final centralized unification inevitably failed before it even began.

They had originally planned to concentrate their forces to completely eliminate the army of raiders from the Mind Flayer Empire.

As a result, the armies of all parties were intentionally or unintentionally "split" into hundreds or thousands of small units and could not be completely assembled.

These small units all have their own opinions, but they simply no longer obey orders.

The mage lords who summoned these small troops all had their own reasons and methods.

The major legions that had assembled were only one-third of the original size, their original structure was incomplete, and more importantly, weapons and equipment were also in urgent need.

In particular, a considerable portion of the weapons and equipment traded from the Gulf Territory are not only extremely expensive but also rare.

Moreover, if you want to trade again, you will have to pay a considerable price.

In this situation, the broken legion army could only garrison in the city to defend and barely limit the expansion of the Mind Flayer Empire's army.

Such a situation would naturally not satisfy the many mage lords of the Netheril Empire.

However, with the return of several great arcanists and their "plundering" of resources and wealth, the Seyvendon Council was soon drained of its resources.

Under such circumstances, the orders of the Severnton Council would naturally not be so effective.

In particular, when Archmage Kenorman, who realized that the situation was not good and was preparing to ask Archmage Iolum to come out of seclusion, was attacked by the enemy while trying to unite various forces.

Archmage Kenorman was seriously injured and gave up returning to the Seyvendon Council to recuperate, and instead rushed to the Gulf Territory.

After experiencing this attack, the originally passionate Archmage Knonorman finally chose to protect himself.

To be able to launch a sneak attack on him with such precision in timing and location, there must be an insider of the same level.

At this point in time, the other party is still acting in this way and has also gained the support of quite a number of mage lords, which is enough to explain many problems.

Without the Archmage Knonorman to preside over the situation, in just a few months, the major provinces and territories of the Netherese Empire began to fight each other.

Moreover, without the constraints of the empire, the struggles and battles between territories became increasingly fierce.

Local forces clashed and bloodshed soon ensued, making cooperation naturally even more impossible.

As a result, the wizard lords throughout the Netheril Empire soon began to pretend to obey the Council of Seymourne, which existed in name only.

Unable to collect resources and talents, and without corresponding constraints and punishment measures, the remaining Severnton Parliament has become a mere formality.

Their only role is to continue to block the Mind Flayer Empire and limit the growing number of Phelin Devil Sunflowers.

Unfortunately, with their current strength and capabilities, they cannot even achieve this goal.

Just as they were fighting happily, competing for resources, plundering inheritance, and searching for children with spellcasting talent.

A distorted army descended from the sky.

Deformed monsters popped up from everywhere.

A deformed orc who is doubly contaminated.

A Phalanx undergoing deep distortion and transformation.

All of these dealt a considerable blow to the various forces within the Netheril Empire.

Compared with the ordinary forces cooperating with the Gulf Territory, the major territories ruled by mage lords performed quite poorly when dealing with these enemies and attacks.

The Mage Lord is not strong enough to influence the entire battlefield like Matthew and act as a perpetual motion machine of magic that can defeat an entire army alone.

There are no decent melee combat troops to withstand the deformed monsters with strong magic resistance and the increasing number of orcs.

Therefore, they could only watch the army of deformed monsters wreaking havoc in the territory.

They could only barely save the city. The towns and villages with weaker defense capabilities were completely unable to withstand such a terrible attack and were destroyed in an instant.

Various disasters and destructions occurred one after another in various parts of the Netherese Empire.

It was not until several mage lords were killed and the main city of the territory was destroyed that some of the mage lords suddenly woke up.

They really can't!

The Gulf Lords, who have been making continuous efforts in various areas, have no intention of lending a helping hand to the current situation of the Netherese Empire.

The great arcanist Kenorman, who had just recovered from his injuries and was planning to build his own floating city, had made his judgment long ago.

"Just save as many civilians as possible. Let all those idiots who have no idea what people's livelihood is all about die."

"They only know how to ask for benefits and take it for granted, but never fulfill their obligations. They only know how to exploit others. They deserve to die!"

"But there are still some smart people who know to come to the Bay to lead..."

The Gulf Territory's combat troops, which were busy in other territories, were rarely seen in the Netherese Empire.

Some mage lords who knew they could not defend their territories asked the Gulf Lords for help.

They came to the Bay Territory and asked the Bay Territory to take over the territory. (End of this chapter)
