Chapter 533: New Direction
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Blacksmith’s Association, trained and disciplined by Amolin, had become the primary weapon-forging institution in the Dark Region City.
At the same time, the administrative management of the territory was under the full control of Su Wan, so there was no need to spend extra energy on it.
After successfully conquering the Dark Region City, she did not stay long. She bid farewell to Felix and the officials of Dark Region City and flew away.
Time was extremely precious to her.
“Half a year ago, when we first saw His Majesty Xu Yuan, no one would have expected that the surface Lord who piloted the mechanical puppet and was surrounded by skeletal blood dragons would become the true ruler of the underground world.” Felix watched Su Wan disappear into the sky.
It had been a coincidence. The dwarves had been preparing to launch an attack on Dark Region City, but Xu Yuan had defeated them.
Since then, the Dark Region City had maintained close cooperation with Xu Yuan.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan had finally visited this time.
The Dark Region City has not only become the ruler of the underground world but has also increased its strength tenfold!
“The achievements of the Dark Region City today are all because of His Majesty Xu Yuan!” Felix said to the heroes of the underground world. “Being a subordinate of the Godslayer is an honor. No one is allowed to disobey her!”
The heroes of the underground world looked solemn. “Chief, please believe us… None of us are dissatisfied with Lord Su Wan.”
In the underground world, where resources were scarce, and the environment was harsh, they always respected the strong.
Only the strongest could help their tribe survive, and relying on the strong was the rule of the jungle.
Felix recalled his conversation with Su Wan.
The world was undergoing unprecedented changes, and they must become powerful as soon as possible to keep up with the pace of Su Wan’s territory!
They needed to increase recruitment efforts and quickly establish legions! All the dispersed tribes suitable for living in the city must be brought back.
More labor was needed, and they couldn’t stop the work!
War was coming. This time, they would surely survive.
Xu Yuan was experienced in flying in the underground world.
Before conquering the underground world, he had captured many gray dwarf cities in a very short time and achieved brilliant results.
However, when he came to this land again a few months later, he felt a connection to it. It wasn’t because of the power of darkness or because he had conquered the place, but because he felt closer to the land and its people.
Even the consumption of energy was reduced by thirty percent, which was an extra reward for conquering the underground world.
But the most remarkable changes were in the surrounding environment.
Every time he flew, he could see places with water sources being developed into large farmlands.
These farmlands were highly organized, with ditches, pathways, main roads, and drainage channels. They were all well-constructed and interconnected.
In these bases, the raw material for making large quantities of ice cream, the Light Flowing Grass, was being cultivated.
When the breeze swept through the land, the tall Light Flowing Grass gracefully swayed. It was refreshing.
However, what fascinated people the most were the alchemy machines in these bases.
These alchemy machines were composed of large metal parts and had four specially designed wheels that moved through the ditches in the farmlands. In front of them were sharp harvesting blades that easily cut the Light Flowing Grass.
The machine transported the harvested crops to the rear through the tracks and then poured them into huge bags. When the bags were full, they would automatically tie up the mouth for easy replacement.
After harvesting an area, these automatic harvesters would leave the field and send the tied bags to the machinery specially used for transportation. In the entire process, other than the machinery that required manual operation, it was almost completely independent of human labor.
Xu Yuan was very satisfied because this was precisely why the Harvesters had been created in Furnace City.
This efficient production method was hundreds or even thousands of times more productive than manual labor.
There were not many planting bases on the way. Most areas had extremely harsh environments, and even the Light Flowing Grass couldn’t survive in such conditions.
After flying for more than three hours, Xu Yuan finally saw Furnace City.
Compared to the Dark Region City, he had not visited Furnace City for a long while. Furnace City mostly had gray dwarves as residents, who formed the territory’s research center.
The gray dwarves were suited for scientific research. After the Dwarf God’s descendants joined them, Furnace City reached new heights.
Their position in the territory was becoming increasingly important.
Xu Yuan flew over the Dark Region City and looked down.
The city, which had once been captured, had now recovered its vitality.
The city walls were lined with densely packed and large alchemical cannons, while a massive number of mechanical puppets patrolled the area.
The soldiers within the city completely ignored Xu Yuan and Su Wan as they piloted their sand ships directly from the sky into the city.
The gray dwarves performed a military salute when they saw Xu Yuan and Su Wan approach. Clearly, these soldiers recognized their master.
After a moment, Xu Yuan and Su Wan landed in front of the Lord’s Mansion. Fifty gray dwarf guards, each piloting five-meter-tall mechanical puppets, were responsible for security.
“Great Ruler, we welcome your return!” At the sight of the visitors, the guards were surprised at first, but then they regained their composure.
They controlled the mechanical puppets so that they would kneel on the ground in respect.
The group of mechanical puppets knelt in reverence. Xu Yuan was delighted.
Under their fervent gazes, Xu Yuan stepped forward.
Just as he passed through the main gate, a gray dwarf hero hurriedly led the way. He smiled radiantly. He showed respect and devotion.
Xu Yuan nodded with a smile and followed the hero into the main hall of the Lord’s Mansion.
The hall was filled with the distinctive flamboyant style of the gray dwarves. There were jewels embedded in the walls, and the floor was covered with precious gemstones. Xu Yuan took the main seat with Su Wan beside him and instructed the hero to call Owen and Amolin..
