Ultra: Dark Shadow Mage, Founding a Magic Empire

Chapter 67: Kuidok's Ambition
"Land of Light, I haven't been here for a long time."

"Yes, the last time we came here was five hundred years ago. At that time, they were still under martial law and refused to trade with us."

"It's just a pity that we might become enemies in the future."

"Maybe."

Kuidok looked at the list in his hand, thinking about how to plunder the Kingdom of Light again after arriving at the destination!

He didn't care about the discussions among his subordinates.

After all, that was the difference between him as a big businessman and the small traders under him.

The information that both parties know, the way they look at things, and their vision and goals in the business world are two completely opposite extremes!
The goblin vendors only care about immediate profits.

What they saw was that the Shadow Empire exploited the Kingdom of Light and used this to obtain a large amount of wealth from the Kingdom of Light.

They were excited about the prospect of collecting this fortune.

Those who are a little more capable can see the future relationship between the two parties through interests.

That is, the Kingdom of Light will establish diplomatic relations with the Baltan Trading Company and communicate as civilizations and organizations.

You can still get the benefits, and you can develop it in the long term, and the other party will thank you~
And big businessmen like Kuidok will, after the Empire helps with the layout, take it to the next level and see more profits and advantages!

What Kuidok wants is not just to exploit the Kingdom of Light once more, he wants the Kingdom of Light to thank him again after the exploitation!
Not only that, the Kingdom of Light will also be bound to them to a certain extent and become their "bodyguards"!
In the years to come, Baltan Trading Company will disguise itself as a peace-loving civilization, and the Kingdom of Light will protect Baltan Trading Company and become Baltan Trading Company's "accomplice" in exploiting the entire universe through capital, trade, and other means!
Yes, this is what Kuidok plans to do next.

He just wants to make the Kingdom of Light their "accomplice"!
Perhaps the Kingdom of Light can see through it, but their actions are not aggression, so how can they be considered bad?
And when the Kingdom of Light wants to stop them, I'm afraid they will already have the ability to resist the high-end combat power of the Kingdom of Light!

Not to mention anything else, Kuidok believes that even if it is the King of Ultra, his Majesty can easily deal with it!
Norman is the last support of the Black Shadow Empire!

"We're here. Let's go down and meet them properly." Kuidok stood up. Now they were disguised as Baltan.

Step off the spaceship and enter the Kingdom of Light.

How should I put it? The Kingdom of Light at this time was very different from the prosperous country that later became.

There are collapsed buildings everywhere, traces of war everywhere, the whole place is in a state of post-war ruins.

And Kuidok knew that when Jian was ready to repay the debt, the Kingdom of Light would need to remain in this state for at least a thousand years!

Moreover, the Empera star is not dead, and they still need to send troops to conquer the Empera star's empire, which will further slow down the development of the Kingdom of Light.

"Long time no see, Kuidok."

"A thousand years have passed since we last met, Jian, you are still so strong and full of radiance."

Kuidok stepped forward and raised his hand to lightly touch Jian's hand.

"Yes, you haven't changed after all these years." Jian nodded with a smile, then invited Kuidok and the merchant delegation to enter the Kingdom of Light.

……

the other side.

In the palace courtyard.

This is Norman's real resting place, which he built into a Chinese-style pavilion.

From the outside and above, this is just a courtyard with an area of ​​no more than 500 square meters, the size of a quadrangle. But if you walk in from the main gate, you can see a real lake and several mountains!

This is what Norman created using space magic. It is summer when you enter from the front door. There are pavilions, towers, bridges, flowing water, and a lake where you can cool off and row a boat.

Across the lake is a forest. The mountains are full of spring. A river flows down from the mountains, with green willows on both sides.

When you go up the mountain, you can see a big waterfall, and beyond that are snow-capped mountains and rice fields.

Norman lived here most of the time and did not sit on the throne all the time.

He is not an emperor, and he does not have a pure gold toilet throne, so there is no need for him to sit on it all the time.

As for the governance of the empire, he could watch and inquire about it at any time and anywhere, and he could leave most of the things to the cabinet and the people.

They have now evolved into a parliamentary system, and the rotating prime minister will help him manage it.

Caitlin was dancing with a sword in the courtyard in her training clothes, and her dance was a delight to the eyes.

After finishing a set, Caitlin walked over to sit next to Norman, wiped her face with a towel, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you really want to give them all a vacation?"

"The twenty geniuses of the magic academy of the first era are still repairing the magic tower. If we let them take a vacation now, many things will not be able to proceed."

"The members of the House of Commons of Dieter's generation have all gone to govern the newly developed planets. If they all take a vacation, I'm afraid there will be big problems."

Caitlin had a point.

Today's Shadow Empire is very large. The area with a diameter of 500 light years outward from the Shadow Star is all the territory of the Shadow Empire!
It was also the first time for the officials of the Shadow Empire to govern such a large territory.

There are thousands of colonized planets and over two thousand planets of all sizes waiting to be developed, as well as the needs of the fleets going out for exploration.

The most important thing is that Edward and others are mainly busy transporting supplies to the magic troops on the border of the Shadow Empire 500 light years away.

What is the mission of this magic army?

Build a super-large shadow barrier to disguise the area where the Shadow Empire is located!
This is the reason why Edward and other senior executives are unwilling to rest. This is related to the future of the Shadow Empire!

Norman was sitting under the eaves reading a book at this time. When he heard Caitlin's question, he looked up and smiled, "Don't worry."

"They are now training disciples. Within a hundred years, we will have many more powerful people."

"What's next? What does Your Majesty want to do?" Caitlyn asked curiously.

"Next."

Norman looked up at the sky. Because he was strong enough, the magic circle he set up nearly two thousand years ago was still working.

Although the star is still extinguished, it is fixed in place, acting as a gravitational center to ensure that the planets in the Blue Galaxy do not drift away.

And above the stars, super-large magic towers are still under construction.

Perhaps, when the magic tower is successfully built, they will truly enter the next era of magic.

Norman thought about it and said, "I want them to overcome difficulties with their own strength. Our civilization can advance on its own. I will stay here and let them grow on their own."

"Besides that... I want to bring an old friend into our empire~"
