Emperor of Arcane

Chapter 715: It Is Better to Cut Off One Finger than to Hurt Ten Fingers (8000)

A coalition composed of the Gulf Territory, Goblins, and the Mohists.

In total, nearly 30,000 rebellious mechanical monsters were killed.

However, all of them knew very well that the monsters they saw now were just a drop in the bucket.

The army of renegade machines that sent these forward troops is continuously producing more renegade machines.

The reason why everyone knows so clearly.

Mainly because Yaya and the flying dragon knights kept chasing and investigating without stopping.

Yaya led the powerful flying dragon knights and attacked the renegade mechanical army behind the battlefield to the east.

The accompanying combat druids also brought real-time cameras to record their battle scenes.

The hundreds of mechanical flying dragons that rushed up were immediately shot by dragon-hunting crossbows.

The rotating crossbow arrows easily tore apart their metal bodies, and then exploded, destroying other parts of their bodies.

The mechanical flying dragon suffered the first round of attacks. Before it could launch a counterattack, Yaya's huge body suddenly fell down.

Bang! Bang! bang

A seven or eight meter long mechanical flying dragon.

In front of Yaya, he was like a group of chickens unable to flap their wings, completely unable to make any waves.

Yaya just waved his wings and swatted them down.

In the blink of an eye, more than 10 mechanical flying dragons were photographed by Yaya.

Yaya didn't stop and pounced directly.

The mechanical flying dragon in chaos was attacked by the flying dragon knights again.

There were other mechanical flying dragons one after another, spinning and falling down.

Everyone who saw this scene on the big screen showed a little excitement in their eyes.

Many people shouted loudly and praised Yaya and the Flying Dragon Knights.

"So handsome!"

"I also want to become a dragon knight."

"Becoming a dragon knight is not easy. You have to work harder in training."

"Wow, what's going on with those mechanical monsters?"

"It seems like a mechanical golem?"

"No, the mechanical golem is not that powerful. It seems to be reported in the new issue of Territory Enemies."

"It seems like this. Enemies in the mechanical plane have the ability to cause intelligent machines to launch rebellions."

"Fortunately, it's outside the machine. If we had it in the bay, we would be in big trouble."

"Hey, if we deal with them in the mechanical plane, we can ensure safety."

"What is that? A mechanized production factory?"

"Wow, what a big mechanical creation! It's a little smaller than the machinery factory we are building..."

"Is that the enemy's?"

"It's a bit similar to ours..."

"..."

Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Yaya broke through the defense line of the mechanical flying dragon and reached the sky above the rebel mechanical camp.

The lens that Ya Ya carried with him recorded the scenes of the rebel machinery base below, handling large quantities of various materials, and continuously producing rebel machinery.

Seeing rows of brand-new rebel machines being produced, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

They have realized that this enemy is not as easy to deal with as before.

However, the big guys in the Gulf Territory have great confidence in Yaya and the warriors in the Gulf Territory.

On the contrary, many other people in the Gulf Territory felt unspeakably shocked.

Bishop Barrett, who had just finished praying, looked solemnly at the renegade mechanical camp without any flesh and blood in sight.

Now, he finally knew who the opponent in the Gulf Territory was, and immediately said to the priest next to him:

"Together with the cooperation with the Gulf Territory, we will continue to increase our efforts in developing the mechanical plane."

Regarding the vigilance of the Church of the Goddess of Magic, both Harley Knight and Lord Anne expressed considerable concern.

The former is worried about the situation of the rebel machine's army and camp.

He immediately realized that the newly established army in Blood Moon City must undergo higher intensity training and tempering.

He had already made up his mind and was going to ask the Bay Leader for help.

The news that the two major legions of the Gulf Leaders are training new recruits has already spread throughout the east coast area.

Some lords and nobles who are far away from the Gulf Territory have already tried it and achieved quite good results.

Bloodmoon City cannot continue to lag behind!

City Lord Anne, who had richer knowledge and stronger strength, could see the special features of these rebellious and aberrant machines at a glance.

"Evil thing? Is the Gulf Territory already fighting an opponent of this level?"

She couldn't help but feel worried, so she immediately sent the news back to the Truth Organization, and at the same time she made up her mind.

"This cannot be delayed any longer."

Laura, who has just finished her adventure in the dark forest, is waiting for the notification of agreeing to enter the rebellious mechanical plane.

She looked over and over again at the image of teeth hovering in the air, recalling the destruction of the mechanical flying dragons. She couldn't help but lick the sweet-scented osmanthus cake at the corner of her mouth, shook her head and said:

"Ordinary dragon knights are no match for the Gulf air force..."

An elf next to her sighed and was recording these images and preparing to report to the Cole Elf Kingdom.

Laura, who looked calm, had no intention of looking at him, but said very calmly:

"Next time, send more smart people over so as not to disrupt the response of our combat team."

The latter naturally understood what she meant, nodded silently, and did not continue to speak.

The other Cole elves are digesting the news and facts that the Gulf Territory is vigorously developing the mechanical plane.

They couldn't believe that this "treasure" that should have belonged to the Kor Elves was forcibly delivered to the Gulf Lord by the Kor Elf Kingdom.

Now, they can only watch the Gulf Lord announce the development of the mechanical plane.

They will even have to assist the Gulf Lord in the battle to better occupy and control the mechanical plane.

This not only makes them feel very uncomfortable, but also extremely aggrieved, but they can't do anything about the Gulf Lord.

Judging from the current strength of the Gulf Lord, the 100,000 Gulf Lord troops stationed in Zul'Farrak.

Not only is it not inferior to the main force of the Kor Elf Kingdom, it is even more likely to be better.

What's more, the Kor Elf Kingdom is currently spending a lot of effort to strangle the invading army of the underground forces.

The plunderer troops that could have been easily solved suddenly had the weapons and equipment of the Gulf Lord to help.

The main force of the Kor Elf Kingdom can't really take down the opponent for a while.

Fortunately, their range of activities has been restricted and they are preparing to tighten the blockade.

However, the unrest in the Kantru Mountains seems to be getting worse.

Compared to the anxiety of many Kor elves, the situation on the El elves side is much better.

Butler Paris, who is building a production line in the Rocky Mountains, listened to the enthusiastic cheers outside and showed an extremely expectant smile on his face:

"The next step is to send our soldiers to the troops entering the mechanical plane."

"When the time comes, we will do some publicity to attract more elves to the Rocky Mountains."

"Those idiots are getting worse and worse. They can't even deal with the ogres in the north."

"Could it be that this is another conspiracy and revenge of the Kor Elf Kingdom?"

The Sewenton Council.

Many lords and arcanists were shocked to see the rebellious machines fighting against Fangya.

They looked at the rebellious machines that were being produced continuously and the amazing metal creations, with greed and desire in their eyes.

But when they saw Fangya flapping his wings and swooping down towards the rebellious mechanical base, easily creating a large area of ​​destruction, they immediately regained their composure.

The current Bay Territory is no longer the small territory it was two years ago.

The Great Arcanist of Kno-Norman and the Truth Organization have both made efforts and have recognized Matthew's achievements in fighting against the trolls and orcs.

Now, Matthew is already a second-class earl and can decide on his own what to recruit.

To put it simply, Matthew has the final say in the Bay Territory, and even the Sevinton Council cannot interfere with it.

Of course, after learning about the conflict between the Bay Territory and the Kingdom of the Kor Elf.

Most of the arcanists and lords dare not have such an idea.

Even though everyone knows very well that whether the Bay Territory can develop so rapidly must have a secret with huge benefits.

But now the Bay Territory has a strong fist and has even launched a plane attack. This is the strength that only a powerful marquis can have.

Not to mention Matthew, who has grown into a super arcanist, his unexpected speed of strength improvement has become famous in Sevinton and even the entire Netheril Empire.

Several archmages believe that Matthew will become another young archmage in the Netheril Empire after Karsus!

Think about the current Karl family, whose strength has expanded three or four times.

They have basically occupied most of the Karl Plains, and have even considered expanding further north to occupy the Haklin Mountains, in order to look forward to the Savage Plateau.

If Matthew really becomes an archmage, together with the Archmage of Kno-Norman and the Truth Organization, his strength will be no weaker than the other major forces in the Netheril Empire.

Not to mention, the Yaya who is currently wreaking havoc in the rebellious mechanical camp has fully demonstrated the powerful strength of the legendary true dragon.

Although they have evil intentions, they are no longer brave enough.

Of course, greedy people are everywhere.

There are many in the Sewenton Council.

Immediately, a member of the parliament spoke directly:

"This is the first demiplane discovered by the empire in the past 30 years, and it has a very high research significance."

"Yes, maybe we can find the rules of discovering other demiplanes from it, and then develop and find more demiplanes."

"In recent years, the turbulence of magic has begun to intensify, and so has the turbulence of space. Maybe the grand occasion of developing demiplanes in the past will emerge."

"This is related to the new round of expansion and strength of the empire. Although the strength of the Gulf Territory is good, it is obviously unable to fight against these metal creations."

"With such a large-scale mechanical army, the other party is very likely to have powerful strength, and the Gulf Territory may not be able to compete with it."

"The Gulf Territory is still too young, just like Lord Matthew."

"If the development of the plane fails, it may lead to a reverse invasion."

"We should send reinforcements to control the mechanical plane and conduct further research."

"I agree with this proposal..."

"I think it's a good idea too."

"Support the Gulf Territory..."

"..."

Seeing that more and more idiots wanted to follow suit and take advantage, Archmage Kenorman snorted coldly, turned his head to look at another Archmage opposite him, and said without hesitation:

"Before Lord Matthew requests support, all unauthorized actions are illegal and will be regarded as attacks by the Gulf Territory."

"There is an old saying in the East, 'The first to make clay figures, will there be no descendants?' Once this precedent is set, whether the demiplanes in your hands can be preserved is another matter."

As soon as the Archmage spoke, the entire conference room immediately fell silent.

The councillors and lords who had just spoken shut up very obediently as if nothing had happened.

They could naturally hear the threat in the words of Archmage Knonorman.

You are looking for an excuse to seize the wealth of the Gulf Territory!

I can also rob you openly in the future!

The deterrent power of the Archmage immediately made many people stop thinking about it.

But at this moment, the Archmage on the other side spoke:

"The existence that controls these mechanical creations is most likely an ancient evil creature!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire conference room immediately buzzed.

Ancient evil creature!

For most lords and archmages, this is an immortal existence.

Not to mention its powerful strength and huge destructive power, which will definitely make people feel terrified.

You know, even the Great Archmage is unlikely to be a match for the Ancient Evil.

Unless the power of the entire Netheril Empire is used!

For a moment, everyone's attitude towards the Gulf Territory immediately took a 180-degree turn.

The previous envy and jealousy immediately turned into gloating like watching a good show.

The Great Archmage Knonorman did not refute, but nodded calmly and said:

"Yes, this is an ancient evil that has never been discovered and recorded by the Empire - the Sin Spark!"

"He can corrode combat puppets, control the core, let the constructs rebel, and let the intelligent machines turn against each other."

"According to reliable information, He can even let the tower spirits get out of control!"

As soon as these words came out, the big guy who was already nervous immediately gave up the idea of ​​approaching the Gulf Territory.

The reason is very simple, if the Sin Spark can really do the above things.

Once the Gulf Territory fails in the battle with it, the ancient evil will return to attack the Gulf Territory. With the countless combat puppets, alchemical golems, and mechanical constructs that the Gulf Territory now has, they will become the opponent's troops.

When that time comes, it will definitely be safer to stay away from the Gulf Territory!

On the contrary, the confession of Archmage Kenorman made another Archmage who was about to speak feel strange.

So direct?

Without any concealment?

Archmage Kenorman was satisfied with the current atmosphere and continued to speak in a calm tone:

"The Gulf Territory has decided to fight against the ancient evil-the Sinful Spark, which is related to the safety of the Netheril Empire."

"If the Gulf Territory can't hold on, it will naturally hold a support meeting at that time. I am very happy that everyone is so concerned just now."

This is what you want to support!

The big guys who heard this immediately changed their faces.

They couldn't help but secretly regret it, and at the same time they also resented the Gulf Territory's fearlessness.

We just want to take advantage, but you are so good that you just want to die with everyone.

This is too unreasonable!

Another archmage next door immediately felt something was wrong, but before he could speak, Archmage Kno-Norman continued:

"Next, I will continue to stay in the Gulf Territory to ensure the safety of the Gulf Territory, so that it can fully deal with the ancient evil - the Sin Spark."

"If anyone dares to attack the Gulf Territory and its interests at this critical juncture, then I and the law enforcement team of the Sewenton Council will never let them off easily!"

When Archmage Kno-Norman's decision came out, everyone was relieved at first, and then felt deeply helpless.

Not only did they not get any advantage, but they got into trouble.

Now, they can only pray that the Gulf Territory will be more powerful and hold on a little longer.

Many lords near the Gulf Territory can't help but panic.

In the past, they were afraid that the Gulf Territory would annex them, either openly or secretly.

Now, they don't have to worry about the Gulf Territory making any moves, but they are facing a more terrible danger.

Once the Gulf Territory conceals the news a little, or fails to block the ancient evil in time.

They may not even have time to escape!

Many lords couldn't help but come up with more ideas.

If the danger of the Gulf Territory cannot be solved, then escaping from the Gulf Territory is also a good way.

After the meeting.

More information about the Gulf Territory's battle images began to spread throughout the northern continent through the news.

Quite a lot of people and forces paid attention to the Gulf Territory and expressed "regret" for the Gulf Territory's experience.

Even, many lords were quite entangled.

"Should we continue to cooperate with the Gulf Territory?"

This question was soon answered.

There were news of more resource orders being placed in the Gulf Territory's caravans and news newspapers.

Moreover, the price was slightly higher than before, allowing everyone to make more money.

If it were normal, everyone would be eager to continue to raise the price so that they could make more money from the Gulf Territory.

But they didn't dare to do so!

One reason was that the cooperation between the Gulf Territory and them was gradually deepening.

The transactions between the two sides were not just a simple buying and selling relationship.

Many territories had just built production lines and production factories, but they were relying on orders from the Gulf Territory to support them.

We've made this money now, in case the Gulf Leader collapses because of this.

Not only did they have to face the terrible dangers brought by ancient evil, but they also failed to make a fortune, and all their previous investments were in vain.

No matter how greedy you are, you would not dare to reach out at this time.

What's more, the Gulf leaders are not "collaborators" who speak well.

Many lords and arcanists still remember their tough attitude towards those who did not cooperate.

Many lords who were worried about the collapse of the Gulf Territory even kindly offered to lower prices.

I was afraid that when I woke up early the next morning, bad news about the Gulf Territory would come.

Many nobles who were "uncomfortable" with the Gulf leaders also felt that now was a good opportunity to make money, and they relaxed their previous conditions.

As a result, the Gulf Territory unexpectedly purchased a large amount of raw materials, precious rare metals, and precious magic materials.

Only the Cole Elf Council, which was preparing to implement the plan, was quite depressed.

"There has been news over there that the Grand Arcanist Kenoman has chosen to take up residence in the Gulf Territory. Our plan must be suspended first."

"Is it really the ancient evil - the Spark of Sin? That thing is actually hidden in Zul'Farrak?"

"The Gulf Territory has made a big mistake now, but it gave the great arcanist Kenoman good luck..."

"Is this an accident? Or has the other party already noticed it?"

"This shouldn't be possible. We didn't even reveal our specific plans to each other..."

"After the plan is temporarily put on hold, more insurance will be arranged to ensure that nothing goes wrong when it starts in the future."

"This is also good news. We can make the Gulf Territory disappear without us doing anything, which just saves us the effort."

"The Gulf Territory's combat effectiveness is not weak, and they should be able to fight against these metal monsters for a long time. However, the emergence of the ancient evil spark of sin will inevitably suppress their development!"

"This is a good opportunity for us to put some pressure on it and make Guilty Sparks and Bay Territory consume each other."

"When the Gulf Territory's vitality is seriously damaged, we will eliminate it in one fell swoop, and then we can take over the ancient evil thing - the Spark of Sin. It's my destiny to get the best of both worlds!"

"Hahaha, the Gulf leader suddenly lost his temper. It's really dumbfounding..."

"..."

Avalon looked at these smiling congressmen and frowned slightly involuntarily.

Will the Gulf Territory really lose to the ancient evil-the Spark of Sin?

At this point in time, it seems a bit strange.

"Perhaps, we should be more cautious..."

Bay City.

Butler Ralph raised his head, smiled at the caravan representative sent by the Kingdom of Lordaeron and said:

“Our cooperation has been very pleasant before, and we will naturally continue to cooperate in the future.”

They didn't see worry on Butler Ralph's face, so they breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously:

"The Gulf Territory has recently developed a new production line? I wonder if we can purchase some production lines for artillery and ammunition..."

When he said this, the other party was cautiously testing, for fear that Butler Ralph would be unhappy.

The reason is simple. If it were them, they would rather sell lower-priced products than sell the production line.

The former can make a steady stream of money and gain accompanying influence.

Although the value of the latter is high, it is equivalent to losing that market...

Contrary to their expectations, under their doubtful gazes, Butler Ralph handed over the information and said directly:

"Of course there is no problem, but the production line will be more expensive, each one requires 15 million gold coins."

"We provide supporting production technology and one-year warranty service to ensure smooth production."

“Also, we can provide ordering and shipping services.”

Butler Ralph was unexpectedly easy to talk to, and even Baron Dale, the caravan representative of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, was stunned.

Are the conditions so good?

So generous?

Baron Dale remembered the king's explanation and the situation in his territory. After hesitating for a while, he tentatively asked:

"Can we buy two? Our territory also needs one..."

Butler Ralph nodded naturally, and under the nervous gaze of Baron Dale, he smiled and said:

"Of course. If you need to keep it secret, we can also deliver it quietly and place it in the underground area."

Baron Dale was immediately overjoyed when he heard the good news, nodded quickly and said:

"Yes, I need to transport it confidentially. It would be great if it could be placed underground."

"I heard that the Gulf Territory is collecting spellcasters' skills, scrolls, and inheritances. We can provide some of them as gifts."

Facing Baron Dale's thoughtful eyes, Butler Ralph's expression did not change and he said very calmly:

"This part can be discounted into the purchase funds, and we will keep the transaction status confidential."

"In addition, we can also provide fully automatic production services. We only need to provide resources regularly and modify the work golem to complete automatic production."

Baron Dale, who was completely moved, nodded without hesitation and said without thinking:

"Okay, let's arrange this for my territory. The price is easy to talk about."

"However, I hope it can be kept confidential..."

"..."

"Of course, this is a list of supplies and knowledge our Gulf Territory needs. The price can basically satisfy everyone, and a certain degree of discount can be provided..."

Watching Baron Dale's departing back, Butler Ralph put his order requirements into a thick file cabinet, which contained various large orders.

Butler Ralph passed the information to the manufacturing center and immediately reported to Matthew.

Matthew, who was counting the results of yesterday's battle, noticed the news coming from the northern continent, and his eyes showed deep thought.

"Sure enough, the closer to the elemental tide, the more intense the turmoil will be, and then it will burst out in a concentrated manner..."

"I hope other territories can hold out a little longer..."

Through such transactions, the Gulf Territory obtained the resources and knowledge that are urgently needed now, and other territories gained strong productivity and strength.

In the following dangers and turmoil, as long as they can keep up with the pace of the Gulf Territory, there is a high probability that they can survive the most difficult times.

As long as they persist, there is a considerable probability that they can grow and develop.

The Gulf Territory can also rely on their growth to obtain a larger market and harvest.

However, this also reflects that many forces are not optimistic about the Gulf Territory.

They want to take advantage of the opportunity of the Gulf Territory's price reduction and big sales to make a good purchase to avoid having no channels at that time.

Matthew and the Bay Territory would naturally make good use of this opportunity and said without hesitation:

"Seize this opportunity and absorb more people. They will definitely help now."

"For some special talents, we can increase the absorption efforts and complete the collection as quickly as possible."

Butler Ralph understood this situation and said very confidently:

"No problem, I will increase the efforts in this regard and attract more talents."

Matthew blinked lightly, as if he thought of something, and continued without hesitation:

"The character is the most important, and the talent is second. Those with relatives will be given priority for rescue. Those who can be rescued will be rescued with all their strength. Those who cannot be rescued will be rescued in advance."

"Let the swordsmen and monks start preparing. They should take action. Please ask the swordsmen to accompany them..."

Generally speaking, there are always various dangers around the "chosen children".

As described in many movies and stories in the previous life, to solve their troubles, at least they must be able to resist the ability of the black hands behind them.

This is why, when the Bay Territory was weak, Matthew did not look for those "geniuses" for the time being.

The various threats involved behind them are enough to bring fatal dangers.

Now, taking advantage of the opportunity that the Gulf Territory disguised itself as a dangerous bomb.

You can first quietly collect the group of outstanding "geniuses" that Matthew is most familiar with.

Of course, Matthew knows that this will bring a lot of trouble, but for the current Gulf Territory, it is already capable of bearing a lot of trouble.

Moreover, quite a lot of "troubles" can become nutrients for the continuous growth of the Gulf Territory.

The power of destiny, technology, and grudges sent by the other party can all benefit the Gulf Territory.

Judging from the current style of the Gulf Territory.

Slightly better forces usually cooperate well and communicate obediently.

If you really want to take action, I guess the other party is not a good person.

Taking advantage of the fact that the elemental tide has not yet emerged, it is just right to clean up a wave and enforce justice.

In the following time, the production factories of the entire Gulf Territory have ushered in further transformation and improvement.

Improved efficiency.

Strengthened technical investment.

Increased quantity and variety.

Completed the intersection and penetration of more different technologies.

At the same time, many intelligent production situations have also made some safety adjustments and preparations.

The appearance of the Sin Spark gave Matthew and the Gulf Territory a reminder.

To prevent the emergence of rebellious machinery and rebellious intelligence, in addition to strengthening its connotation, it is necessary to gradually improve it and finally be able to counter the influence of rebellion.

It is still quite necessary to prepare some backup protection measures.

Various war resources and weapons and equipment are continuously manufactured from factories.

Many of them rushed to the three war zones or quasi-war zones of the underground world, the Kantru Mountains and the Rocky Mountains.

A considerable part of them were transported to various territories and regions in the northern continent.

The "crisis" that the Gulf Territory took the initiative to break out this time has once again stimulated everyone's consumption and purchasing enthusiasm.

Most of the remaining war materials and equipment were transported to the warehouse of the Gulf Territory for storage.

The remaining half, together with the materials stored in the original warehouse, were transported to the mechanical demiplane prepared for the battle.

Mechanical demiplane.

The combat command center of the Gulf Territory.

The commanders who were looking through the information of the rebellious mechanical base were having a heated discussion:

"The imitation production capacity of the rebellious machinery is very strong, and the wheeled rebellious machinery it produced is undergoing continuous improvement and experimentation."

"The golem train is also being manufactured. Once it is manufactured, the transportation capacity and production capacity will be greatly improved."

"The original rebellious machinery and mechanical flying dragons are also being upgraded and transformed..."

"The super heavy crossbow that can threaten the flying dragon also has signs of suspected production and experimentation."

"The other party is studying engineering golems that can drill into the ground. Maybe they can detect traps and dangers on the ground later..."

"..."

Goblin Prince Garrison and Big Iron Cone looked through the dense data, with deep emotion and fear in their eyes.

Feeling the meticulous preparations for the battle in the Gulf Territory, they were afraid that the enemy was becoming stronger.

Faced with the increasingly powerful rebellious machines, both of them felt powerless.

This is the problem faced by all rebels in the mechanical plane.

If they don't resist, they will be harvested generation after generation as prey, until they are extinct in the decline and interruption of inheritance.

If they resist, the rebellious machines will become stronger, and finally fall under the increasingly powerful army of the other side.

What should they do?

Just when the two were a little worried, they suddenly found that the commanders of the Gulf Territory had stopped arguing.

Angela, with a calm face, said directly in a calm and confident tone:

"The other side's rebellious machines are unlimited, but the rebellious machine bases are limited!"

"Attacking the main target is the key to our victory!"

"It is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers!"
