Chapter 553 Dragon Disaster Strikes (8000)

"As long as there are sufficient materials, the joint factory can produce more than 100 pieces of high-end magic equipment and props every day."

Aini gently stroked a soft turquoise cloak, feeling the hidden and accumulated magic power fluctuations on it, and continued to speak expectantly:

"To make everyone familiar with the various steps."

"Like other factories in the territory, they will be arranged to rotate in various processes for half a month to a month."

“Until they have complete mastery, they are scheduled for discussions and studies on improvements.”

Ani knows very well what Matthew expects from the joint factory.

This is not just a factory that produces advanced weapons and equipment.

It is also a joint research institute for future research on better magic weapons and equipment.

"Well done, feel free to take care of it. If you need anything, just tell Butler Ralph and he will give you the greatest support."

Matthew smiled and nodded. He was right to appoint Ani to take charge of the joint factory.

With her temperament, she would not treat the master craftsmen of the Gulf Territory and the dwarves differently.

He is also a master craftsman who can hold his own against the elves in terms of status.

There are bound to be disputes and frictions in the joint production of the three parties. How to properly handle these situations is also a test and temper for Aini.

In the future, Matthew has higher expectations for her.

Matthew looked through the various materials needed for factory production and discovered a very interesting feature.

Dragon blood creatures account for a high proportion of materials.

This is to digest the materials of the dragon-blooded creatures that the Gulf Territory spent a lot of money to acquire and recover the funds as quickly as possible.

While returning the money, it can further stimulate the enthusiasm of adventurers and promote the territory to "absorb" the nutrients of the Dragon Madness Disaster.

The more adventurers and soldiers kill.

The more you earn in the Bay Area.

The faster their strength improves.

You can kill more!

Such a good cycle can quickly improve the overall strength of the Gulf Territory adventurers and soldiers.

Most of the other materials come from the dwarf kingdom, and only a very small part comes from the El elves.

Sure enough, although the dwarf is in a relatively bad situation, he never tries to be picky about things and conducts himself. He will choose to trust his friends when he identifies them.

Although the El elves are a little different from other elves, most of them just want to obtain more supplies.

The El Elves acquired 55% of the weapons and equipment produced by the United Factory and spent a large amount of gold coins for this purpose.

Matthew doesn't care too much about this. As time goes by, the El Elves' situation will become more and more difficult, and their dependence on the Gulf Territory will become greater.

When the time comes, Matthew hopes that their family fortune accumulated over thousands or even tens of thousands of years will be even richer.

Just as Matthew was touring the joint factory.

In the central square of Bay City, more than 10 people are receiving the gaze of countless pairs of eyes.

They lowered their heads in shame and repented for their corruption at work.

After each of them explained their thoughts and reasons at the time, the personnel of the trial department read out their punishment conditions:

"They will be sentenced to at least 10 years in prison and above."

"At the same time, while they are under supervision, work must continue to repay them for the damage they have caused."

"After they have served their well-deserved imprisonment, they will be able to regain their freedom if their work has produced 10 times the damage they caused."

"Otherwise, they will continue to work under supervision."

"I hope everyone will take this as a warning and don't reach out, otherwise you will be caught!"

Everyone saw clearly and compared the crimes and punishments of each corrupt person. No one was an exception and everything was basically handled in accordance with the law, which gave everyone a very comfortable feeling.

Many people ridiculed them, and many more took them as a warning.

There is also some shame that they did not discover the other party's corruption in time.

As a result, the other party caused greater damage and caused greater losses to the territory and everyone's interests.

"Hey, what do these guys think? How dare they lie under the eyes of the monitoring golem."

"Haha, if you ask them to be vague, it's obvious that something is wrong."

"The longest one lasted this time was two weeks. The monitoring golem needs to be improved!"

"If the daily outgoing monitoring and inquiry can be strictly implemented, we should be able to better prevent this phenomenon, or at least catch them faster."

"It makes sense. Go ahead and give your opinion. It should be revised soon."

"That's right, let's go!"

"..."

When I first arrived in the Gulf Territory, I happened to see this unprecedented public trial.

Several young people from the Seer family showed a little surprise and shock on their faces.

"Is this method to prevent corruption? How much monitoring magic does this require?"

"I heard that they are constantly released by monitoring golems, just like the two we encountered when we entered the city gate."

"Hey, is this Cousin Matthew's idea of ​​an arcanist? It's really interesting."

"There are so many golems in the city, they are even more interesting than Wenton!"

"The Bay City is much cleaner than Seventon. The roads are wide and the environment is clean. Everyone is busy. I didn't even see any beggars..."

"It's really interesting. When I first heard about it, I thought it was those guys talking about it, but I didn't expect that the Gulf Territory would develop so well."

"That's right. Although Bay City is not as large as Sewenton and has so many magic creations and wizard towers, it reveals a different kind of vitality and vigor..."

"Look at that food court..."

"Isn't the Adventurer's Hall too big?"

"Can everyone buy magic weapons and potions?"

"..."

They couldn't help but be very curious about the Bay Territory and felt quite surprised.

At the reminder of passers-by, they curiously asked the question-answering golem at the intersection.

At first, they wanted to ask about the work of the Bay Territory.

Since they entered the city, this is the most common thing they have heard.

Then, they became interested in the question-answering golem and asked all kinds of interesting questions.

But soon, because the number of questions and answers reached the upper limit, they could only watch eagerly.

Not far away, Elliot looked at the emblem of the Sear family on them and said to Feili beside him:

"Don't make contact rashly. Inform the butler of the situation first and see how he wants to deal with it."

Feili, who was originally a little nervous, heard that Elliot did not mean to blame her. She nodded quickly and sent an emergency communication spell to Butler Ralph, and did not forget to ask:

"What is the situation in the Catachan demiplane? Can the kobolds and gnolls adapt? What about the sub-dragons?"

Elliot did not feel impatient with Feili's curiosity. Instead, he smiled and introduced to her:

"Even underground, the fungal mats and plants outside Catachan will slowly infiltrate."

"Fortunately, the kobolds have joined, and they can clean and dig at any time, and can also help them solve the problem of food. The two are very compatible."

Kobolds and fungal mats?

Feili couldn't help but smile faintly when she thought of that picture, and put on a look of "you continue talking".

"Two sub-dragons have died. They were unlucky enough to run into Catachan demons."

"However, most of them have settled down and are fighting against the creatures around them."

"They are very adaptable and can transform the surroundings, which will play a big role in fighting fungal blankets and green tides."

"Dragons are really interesting. Even these sub-dragons grow very fast. Not only have they adapted to cooperating with us, they are also adapting to the environment at the fastest speed."

"Moreover, because they feel the pressure of survival, they have begun to reproduce at a faster rate..."

Fili listened to Elliot talking about a lot of interesting things about the Catachan demiplane, and a little expectation and yearning appeared on her face.

Reaching out and patting her on the shoulder, Elliot smiled and told her:

"As the territory has always advertised, all work is necessary and important, and so is your work."

"Ensuring the safety of the people in the territory is our goal, and our home is here..."

Slightly shrinking her neck, Feili's eyes rolled, and suddenly raised her wrist, saying very excitedly:

"Ah? Butler Ralph decided to meet them!"

Making a quick return gesture to her, Feili smiled and said:

"Remember to go home for lunch at noon, the old lady is still waiting for you to come back."

Slightly sticking out her tongue, Feili walked towards the young people of the Sear family. Looking at her back, Elliot couldn't help but think slightly:

"What happened? Yaoyue family?"

Hearing that Feili was going to take them to the Lord's Mansion, several young people of the Sear family agreed.

Along the way, they raised many questions, discussed the surprises of the Bay Territory, and pointed out the contrast between here and the Sear family.

They were full of energy and youth, giving Feili a feeling of seeing herself a year ago.

Butler Ralph welcomed their arrival, enthusiastically accepted the gifts they brought, and gave them some surprises.

"Wow, is this a high-level enchanted weapon?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true, my father's is not so good!"

"Is this a gift from the lord? This is too good!"

"Hehe, now we can stay here with confidence..."

"Before you came, you didn't say that!"

Hearing their words, Butler Ralph laughed happily and asked with a gentle smile:

"If you really want to stay, then tell me what you want to do!"

The young people looked at each other, each with their own ideas.

Before coming, they wanted to become nobles of the Gulf Territory and assist Matthew in managing the Gulf Territory.

This is the practice of many families. They have received professional training and training, which can bring loyalty to Matthew and a certain influence to the family.

However, after coming to the Gulf Territory, their ideas have changed dramatically.

They found that the managers of the Gulf Territory are also just a job, and the division of power and responsibilities is very clear, not like those in power as they imagined.

In this case, they were attracted by their own interests and were ready to try various jobs in the Bay Territory.

After all, they also wanted to make further progress in their personal strength and knowledge and technology.

Butler Ralph did not have any opinions on the ideas of these little guys, but instead provided them with some practical suggestions.

In this case, they were very happy and began to carry out various vocational training.

After learning the news, Matthew thought for a few minutes and arranged to write a letter to be sent to the Seer family.

To Matthew's surprise, the Seer family responded quickly.

"They said that Seventon was ready to take action?"

Butler Ralph nodded solemnly, read the reply carefully, and said thoughtfully:

"The Parliament is preparing to dispatch two legions to clean up the dragon-blooded creatures around Sewendon, but I guess there is no intention to expand..."

Matthew agreed with this and asked if there was any other information in the letter.

Butler Ralph shook his head, with a little confusion in his eyes. After hesitating for a while, he comforted Matthew and said:

"Perhaps, Lord Earl is busy."

Matthew didn't care too much about this and continued very simply:

"Under this situation, there will be more and more refugees around Sewendon, but I estimate that they will not be able to take care of them, and there is a high probability that they will send them to us..."

"Inform the newspaper editor and tell him that we in the Gulf Territory need more refugees."

After hearing this, Butler Ralph already understood Matthew's plan and was immediately ready to make arrangements for it.

301 years.

January 8th.

The Fourth Legion and the Fifth Legion of the Netheril Empire began to eliminate the dragon-blooded creatures around Seventon.

Under the leadership of Floating City No. 6, they showed very terrifying maneuverability.

Through the legion teleportation spell studied by the Grand Arcanist of Iolum, you can easily reach any location within a range of 300 kilometers and complete the deployment within an hour.

The dragon-blooded creatures without any cooperation were no match for them and were cleared away by them at an extremely fast speed.

What's even more frightening is that all extraordinary dragon-blooded creatures are easily wiped out by the floating city's destructive cannon.

In fact, it only took them 10 minutes to kill a legendary flying dragon.

The other party didn't even have time to escape!

In just 5 days, millions of dragon-blooded creatures were eliminated.

With an unrivaled attitude, he isolated the influence of the Dragon Madness Disaster from the area of ​​​​Seventon.

The Netheril Empire once again proved that as long as it has the floating city, the empire is invincible.

However, the imperial army that defeated the invasion of dragon-blooded creatures did not send support to the surrounding areas.

It seems that they just want to take good care of the surrounding area of ​​Seventon.

Many lords asked Sewendon for support, but did not receive an effective reply. They were just told to continue to persevere and fight hard.

But the dragon blood creatures are getting stronger and stronger.

But it brought considerable trouble to the surrounding territories and provinces.

Even if it is the territory of a marquis or even a duke.

Its villages and countryside did not have much defense.

They were all invaded by dragon-blooded creatures and suffered heavy losses.

The great lords with relatively strong military power are also sending troops to clean up the dragon-blooded creatures.

More other lords who lacked weapons, equipment and supplies began to purchase many combat supplies on the market.

Then, they soon discovered that the Gulf Territory was the only territory that was still selling large quantities of combat supplies.

What makes them even more excited is that although the prices of these supplies from the Gulf Territory have increased.

But it was more of a surcharge for the difficulty of transporting supplies, and it did not rise several times like other caravans.

Such a conscientious act shocked most of the territory.

"Did the Gulf Territory really do this?"

"Yes, and the Gulf Territory has issued a statement that the price will not change much. Lords who are short of supplies are welcome to purchase and consult."

"Even if I have never been to the Bay Territory or met Lord Matthew, I have to praise him. He is really a good lord."

"That's right. He transported refugees, supported other lords, and now supports other territories. He is really a role model for us."

"I can't do it anyway, it's just too awesome."

"I really want to go to the Bay Territory to see..."

"It seems that more and more refugees are coming recently. Why is this?"

"Isn't that simple? Only Sewenden is safe, they have to run here for refuge..."

"I saw that many refugees were organized to enter the teleportation array together. Where will they be sent?"

"Where else could it be? It must be the Gulf Territory. They are the only ones who continue to accept refugees. The other territories..."

"Hey...Seventon really can do it!"

"Who told the Gulf Territory to still recruit people? It's still being published in the news..."

"..."

Just as Matthew had guessed, the increasingly turbulent Dragon Madness disaster had a huge impact on the entire Netheril Empire.

Even if most towns and cities are safe, the villages that have been greatly affected have still led to a huge flow of refugees.

A large number of refugees were sent to the Gulf Territory by Sewendon.

The lords shed their burdens.

The Assembly of Seventon avoided the gathering of refugees.

The Gulf Territory gained population.

Everyone wins!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Gulf Territory purchased a large amount of supplies and food.

This time, almost no lord dared to refuse to cooperate with the Gulf Territory.

They don't want the territory's burden to increase, nor do they want the prices of various materials sold in the Gulf Territory to increase.

Interestingly, the Gulf Territory made a lot of money by selling various war supplies, and at the same time, it also recovered the corpses of dragon-blooded creatures killed by the major territories.

By utilizing the materials of these dragon-blooded creatures, the Gulf Territories made a variety of war supplies and resold them to these territories at an astonishing profit.

Back and forth.

For every transaction, Bayland can earn more than 3 times the price difference.

Many supplies hoarded by the Gulf Territory were put into newly dug underground warehouses.

Lots and lots of orders.

Busy engineering and construction teams.

A large number of various materials.

Continue to integrate into the population of the Gulf Territory.

They are constantly consolidating the foundation of the Gulf Territory and improving its development potential.

Just when the Gulf Territory was developing rapidly, the great evil that had been accumulated for a long time finally came.

January 18th.

Bay collar.

clear.

A cool breeze came from the underground laboratory.

Waves of ghosts crying and wolves howling disappeared into nothingness.

Matthew, who had just completed the transformation surgery, calmly watched the battle message sent by Angela.

"An army of more than 300,000 dragon-blooded creatures will arrive at the border of the Gulf Territory in three days."

"According to intelligence, this army is led by 16 gregarious land dragons, each of which is an elite unit of extraordinary rank or above!"

300000!

A very scary number!

Not to mention a crazy dragon-blooded creature!

Matthew thought for a moment and replied a few words to Angela:

"Save strength, exchange space for time."

After the click was completed, Matthew stopped paying attention to the war situation.

He believed that the Gulf leaders and commanders, who had achieved tremendous growth, could win this war.

After receiving the reply, Angela did not immediately tell everyone about Matthew's reminder. Instead, she continued to say to everyone:

"Let's discuss together, which war plan to choose?"

The commanders looked at each other, feeling the tremendous pressure. Looking at their expressions, they carefully considered various plans.

The discussion about the dragon-blood biological warfare meeting that lasted two hours?

As soon as the meeting ended, various orders quickly spread throughout the Gulf Territory.

The army united with the Lord's Mansion to make arrangements to deal with the army of dragon-blooded creatures.

Almost everyone in the territory began to join in the mobilization for combat.

Everyone knows very well that war is not only a matter for soldiers, but also closely related to everyone in the territory.

Various mobilizations and various wartime orders began to unite everyone in the territory as a whole.

Everyone listened to one voice, and with mutual cooperation and efforts, the already very small barriers disappeared as quickly as possible.

People donated all kinds of materials.

The factory works overtime.

Various jobs have also become busier.

Everyone worked hard to contribute to the next war.

Three days later.

The dark clouds in the distance slowly dissipated under the breeze.

Standing on the city wall, Angela silently watched the large swarms of dragon antelopes coming in, and shouted loudly without hesitation:

"Cannon ready, fire!!"

The roaring cannon spit out surging fireballs.

Pieces of cannonballs flew side by side, spinning and smashing into the dragon antelope army.

Bang!

Click!

Blood splattered everywhere and limbs flew everywhere!

The terrifying shells smashed big holes in the body of the dragon antelope.

In just this moment, hundreds of dragon antelopes fell.

These huge antelopes, which also had pointed and long horns and jumped very fast, were hit hard immediately.

Dozens of roads paved with flesh and blood lie between them.

But these dragon antelopes didn't care, they let out wild beast-like roars one after another, roaring and charging towards the towering city wall.

Combining dwarf and elf technology, as well as Matthew's "inspired" new cannon, the range has reached an astonishing 1 kilometer.

These dragon antelopes ran forward 200 meters and were once again subjected to the fierce baptism of artillery.

This time, the more lethal shells caused more terrible damage.

Those fallen dragon antelopes were quickly trampled mercilessly by their companions and turned into rubble on the ground.

Arnold shouted for the soldiers to reload.

Lyon has arranged for crossbowmen to prepare for shooting.

The dragon antelope was running forward crazily, and its long legs that kept jumping forward suddenly stepped on the air, and the seemingly solid ground sank in an instant.

More than a thousand dragon antelopes fell into a trap 6 to 7 meters wide in an instant.

Once they fall into a trap full of mud and spikes, it is impossible to let them escape again.

But these dragon antelopes still didn't care. They jumped high in front of the trap and fell heavily into it, as if they didn't hesitate to lose their lives.

After silently glancing at them, Arnold gave the order to continue shooting without hesitation.

The sound of artillery continued to roar on the city, and more and more dragon antelopes were killed by this "epoch-making" weapon.

Just in terms of attack distance!

Dissatisfied with the low power of Arnold, he couldn't help but said to Wildhammer who was recording information and data next to him:

"Is it possible to develop a cannonball that can explode? Just relying on these iron balls to hit it will have too little lethality."

Subconsciously frowning, Wildhammer was about to shake his head in denial.

But he soon fell into deep thought again, constantly calculating the possibility of delayed explosion in his mind.

Aini, who was standing by, glanced at him and couldn't help asking curiously:

"Explosion? Can I use spells? There are many types of explosion spells!"

The Manchu, who suddenly heard this, subconsciously widened his eyes and couldn't help but say excitedly:

"That's right, anyway, the material of the shells is relatively hard, and the lethality is indeed not great just by flying over and hammering. If there is a spell attached..."

Just as they were discussing, the trap that swallowed three or four thousand tall dragon antelopes was actually filled with their corpses.

Such a shocking scene made the defending soldiers feel a little pressure.

Angela, who noticed this, turned her head and said to Feili next to her without hesitation:

"Arrange ignition!"

The fierce fire oil that covered the entire trap, after 10,000 or 20,000 dragon antelopes passed through the trap, they were ignited by sparks.

The rising flames instantly swallowed all the corpses.

But many dragon antelopes risked fire and broke through the three or four meter high fire wall, rushing towards the city wall fiercely.

Most of them fell on the way of charging.

Especially the crossbow arrows fired, wiped out the lives of these dragon antelopes in large numbers.

Looking at these three or four meters tall, strong and muscular dragon antelopes, Yaya, who was observing the battle in the sky, couldn't help drooling and said:

"Oh, these antelopes look so delicious, they are big and have a lot of meat. If we can capture more captives, we should be able to raise them, right?"

Hearing Yaya's words, Matthew couldn't help but smile, patted her head gently, and said with a smile:

"This is simple, you can give orders to adventurers, then build a breeding farm, recruit professional personnel to help you breed, and solve your greed problem."

Yaya didn't feel embarrassed at all, but began to sing the beautiful picture, and was laughing at the moment.

A dragon antelope hit the city wall fiercely.

The sharp and slender horns only left a white mark on the rough city wall.

And its entire head was smashed to pieces under the huge force.

It only left a conspicuous pool of blood on the city wall, and then it collapsed and fell down.

Almost all the dragon antelopes crashed to death under the solid city wall.

Occasionally, some dragon antelopes were ready to use their advantage of jumping high and hit the city wall in the air.

The consequences were actually no different. These seemingly threatening dragon antelopes had no way to face the solid city wall, and could only hit them in groups in vain.

Confirming that these dragon antelopes would not cause any trouble, Angela breathed a sigh of relief and looked into the distance calmly.

There, the large army of the dragon blood army finally came slowly.

All kinds of dragon blood creatures, as if infected by the dragon antelopes, ran wildly towards this side.

Angela did not look at those dragon blood creatures that were too small. Even if there were more of them, they could not pose any threat to the defense of the Misty Fortress.

What really frightened Angela were the dragon turtles with thick armor and strong bones.

These giant dragon turtles had several unexpectedly long legs.

They ran very fast, and their tonnage was frighteningly high.

Behind these dragon turtles, hundreds of fast-crawling ground dragons were also roaring and raging.

Angela took a look at them and immediately arranged them as quickly as possible:

"Prepare five heavy crossbows in a group, and shoot the dragon turtles first!"

The heavy crossbowmen who heard this immediately started to get busy.

The huge arrows as thick as wrists were lifted onto the crossbows by two people.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The huge crossbow arrows flew out and hit the dragon turtles in a rotation.

The crossbow arrows that hit the back of the dragon turtles only scratched a series of jumping sparks.

Fortunately, the effect of attacking other parts was not bad. As long as they were touched, it would be a huge wound.

The toxins and huge blood draining grooves on them would quickly weaken these dragon turtles.

The purpose of launching these long-range weapons is to stop large creatures and approach the city wall as slowly as possible.

Behind these dragon turtles, three huge land dragons rushed over with unparalleled power.

They were very fast, and the ground trembled with every step they took.

They were covered with gray-brown scales, and under the sunlight, they exuded a thick metallic luster.

They had amazing razor-like fangs, and just one look gave people a piercing chill.

They didn't care about the dragon blood creatures around them.

Every time they trampled, other dragon blood creatures would be killed or injured.

But the dragon blood creatures around them didn't care at all.

For some reason, they gathered around the land dragons.

Following them, they rushed towards the misty castle together.

Such a shocking army of flesh and blood made Angela breathe a sigh of relief. She shouted loudly without hesitation:

"All units are ready, shoot together!"

All kinds of weapons flew out.

Including but not limited to rotating shells, flying crossbows, roaring fireballs, and huge stones that made a whirring sound.

Various weapons hammered at the body of the land dragon, but they did not slow them down at all.

Such a powerful and terrifying monster would really put tremendous pressure on people.

Fortunately, Angela was well prepared and made a hidden gesture to Arnold.

The latter shouted to the dragon hunting crossbows ambushed everywhere: "Fire!"

The war between the Gulf Territory and the dragon army broke out!
