Gordon has made a blood pact with Renus. But there was a special reason for that, and there was the goddess Titus who contributed to it. In addition, Gordon has also gained many benefits from it. And Renus herself is at least a powerful Blood Paladin, trusted not only by the Nemesis, but still under the patronage of the Dawn.

But the Ice Fairy Queen Ania in front of him, Gordon felt that it was not worth it if he had to take the risk to save her. After all, after leaving the Water Elemental Realm, Ainia is now very weak, and not only the Grand Arcanist of Nether can command her, but even an evil spirit can control her.

If you use the soul contract to save her, won't you have a big weakness?

Everyone has just met today, and they are not very familiar with each other, so why should they pay selflessly? Is it because this Ainia is a petite peerless beauty?

Gordon said to Brian again, "There's only one way?" ”

"Master, when you signed a contract with this ice goblin, it was when my servant's historical status was downgraded, if there was any other choice, how could I provide this solution? Brian said with a look of disgruntle.

If Gordon really signed a soul contract with Ainia, then it is obvious that Brian, who only signed a servant contract, is the bottom of the food chain around Gordon. After all, there is no life-sharing relationship between it and Gordon. Even if Brian died, Gordon wouldn't have any effect.

Seeing that Gordon didn't immediately agree, the goblins chattered again.

"Mage, save our Queen!"

"Her Majesty Ainia is a very nice person. Please save her! ”

"It's just a soul contract, you should sign it quickly!"

"Alright. Don't embarrass Mr. Gordon. Although Ainia's voice was weak, she still calmly stopped her people, "Signing a soul contract is a very important thing, which is equivalent to sharing one's life with others, and any sane person must consider this matter carefully." ”

Although there are not as many political disputes in the elemental world as in the main material world civilization, Ainia is the queen of the ice goblins, and she can see what Gordon is hesitating about. It's not like those little goblins, who don't look at the world at all.

"You're right." Gordon bowed to Ainia, "It's a bit mundane to say that, but if you can show me something of value that interests me, I can help you sign a soul pact." ”

"If you want it, you have to pay for it...... You are a mage. Sure enough, like Antioch, he believes in the value called 'equivalent exchange'. Ainia said.

Although she has an indifferent personality, Ainia also has a survival instinct that any creature has. Moreover, she can't rest assured that her people who are almost unfamiliar with the world. So if there is a chance to live, she will naturally try her best to seize this opportunity.

Seeing Gordon ask, Ania said, "If I fully recover, I will be equivalent to a five-ring warlock who specializes in plastic energy spells. Although the strength is far inferior to when he was in the water element realm. But for you today, it's also a good combat power. ”

Ainia was right. Now among the people around Gordon, that is, he himself is the Five Rings Mage. The other spellcasters are all rookies like Dudley, and they don't even have official mage qualifications. Apprentices who can only dispense potions.

Although the variety of spells mastered by the warlock is far less than that of the mage, it is under the premise of the same level. Warlocks tend to have more spell slots than mages. If you have a mobile turret like Ainia nearby, it's a good choice.

But this was far from impressing.

"That's right." Gordon suddenly remembered something, "Since you are the Ice Fairy Queen, then when you are in the Water Elemental Realm, you should have enough means of self-protection so that the enemy does not dare to covet it." I believe that you can't rely on these little guys to protect your territory with pure icebergs, right? ”

Seeing Gordon pointing at him, the goblins immediately showed unconvinced expressions, and they all pursed their mouths.

"Hmph, you mage are not allowed to look down on us, we will do a lot of things!"

"Yes, yes! I can eat half my body weight of honey in one go, you can't. ”

"I like to eat chocolate, I can eat three ~ big ~ pieces a day ~"

"I can steal candy from other people's houses without a word!"

Watching the goblins proudly tell their "expertise", Gordon couldn't help but laugh. Even Ainia was embarrassed by her greedy and naughty people.

She waved her hand again to silence the goblins, and then said to Gordon, "Mr. Mage, you are right. It's not just us ice goblins, in fact, all the goblin races don't have high combat effectiveness, but we have other ways to protect ourselves. ”

Ainia is right.

Fairy creatures are creatures that often live in symbiosis with other creatures.

For example, forest fairies will provide for and protect fierce and combative plants such as ancient trees and man-eating flowers in exchange for their own safety.

Ainia pointed upwards and said to Gordon, "Mr. Mage, please come with me. ”

The group exited the hall where the Ice Energy Gems were placed through the exit on the other side. They followed a long spiral staircase all the way up.

The road was much easier to walk than it had been when Gordon had descended, and the walls on either side were filled with magic lamps that had been glowing softly white since the underground complex was completed. Even the closed stone doors will open automatically when they sense someone is coming.

It's like a magical room built by a great Arcanist of Nether.

Walking into a large room, Gordon saw that the floor was littered with various metal tools that had long since decayed. But that's not the point, what Ainia wants to show Gordon is a statue standing against the wall at the end of the room.

The three-meter-tall statue is purely carved from ice cubes and is not the work of some ice sculptor, so there are no smooth and graceful body curves or lifelike expressions. It's hard and cold. It's more like a tall suit of armor.

"It's ......"

Seeing Gordon's puzzled expression, the Ice Elf Queen explained, "When I was in the Water Elemental Realm. The ones that our ice goblins use to protect the pure iceberg peaks are these ice soul warriors. ”

"Ice Soul Warrior?"

"Yes." Ainia nodded, "The way they're made is simple for us. All you need to do is ask the little ones to sculpt the pieces of pure iceberg peaks into human shapes, and then I use the Polar Ice Holy Water to give souls to these sculptures, and they become powerful warriors. ”

"But ......," Ainiah's tone full of memories changed suddenly. She withdrew her gaze from the ice sculpture and turned to face Gordon, her pure white dress fluttering, emitting a little crystal clear light. It's like a dream.

"This queen is quite charming......" Gordon secretly praised in his heart.

Ainia looked at Gordon and continued, "However, after coming to the main material realm, those only polar ice holy water have lost their spirituality due to leaving the environment of pure iceberg peaks, so I can't give souls to these sculptures anymore. But I have other ways to make these ice sculpts into golems. ”

"Ice Golem?" Brian, who had been quiet beside him, suddenly shouted, "I see! In the materials I remember. Indeed, there was a great Arcanist of Nether who led an army of Ice Golems in the Japanese Elf War, and achieved many brilliant victories. ”

"Monster, don't be surprised!"

"You're already scary enough, and if you suddenly shout like this, do you want to scare us to death!"

The goblins protested.

But Ainia nodded, "You're right. Antioch did have us help him create an Ice Golem legion. And the difference between the Ice Golem and the Ice Soul Warrior is. We are only responsible for making the torso of the Golem for Antioch, and the soul of the Golem is left to him to deal with. ”

Antioch chose to do this in addition to Ainia's inability to give a soul to the ice sculpture. I'm afraid Antioch considers that these ice goblins are only working for themselves temporarily, and are not fully loyal. Therefore, it is impossible to hand over the control of the golem army to the Ice Fairy Queen.

Gordon asked, "I'm not a Grand Arcanist, and I don't have the ability to get elemental souls right away. So even if you make a bunch of statues out of Polar Ice, it won't be of use to me. ”

Ainia smiled rarely: "Don't worry about this. We can help you nurture your Iceelemental Spirit. Although it is much more troublesome and takes a lot of time than using the Polar Ice Holy Water to directly create an Ice Soul Warrior, it can still create a golem that is completely obedient to you. ”

"I see." Gordon nodded, and then asked, "Last question, what are the abilities of these ice golems?" ”

The Ice Fairy Girl Dynasty's ice sculpture with one arm left unfinished pointed over: "You can try it yourself." ”

Since the Golem was made from an almost unheard of substance like ice, Gordon had to test the biggest flaw that this Golem should have: its ability to resist fire.

If the enemy could melt these ice golems with a casual fire, it would be a big cry.

Gordon was not polite, and directly raised his hand to shoot a flaming arrow.

But I didn't expect that this three-ring spell that could melt the iron was only left with a shallow wound after shooting on the ice sculpture.

Gordon used the Burning Hand, the Scorching Ray, and the Fireball Technique one after another. As a result, these spells only melted a shallow layer of the surface of the ice sculpture.

Only then did Ainia say, "Mr. Gordon, polar ice is not an ice cube in the ordinary sense. This material is not afraid of flames. The statue will not melt unless you throw it into the furnace and calcined it for a day. The problem is that even metals like Adamantite Mithril can't withstand such high temperatures. ”

According to Ainia, the Polar Ice is a substance that can only be made by their Ice Demons who are proficient in extracting the essence of ordinary ice cubes, and although it is extremely cold, it can be used as metal.

"Such a substance does not conform to the laws of thermodynamics at all...... But this is the world of magic, and I don't have to worry too much about it. ”

Gordon thought about it and quickly accepted the setting.

"The only problem is that the polar ice is relatively brittle, and if it is hit hard, such as by a mountain giant, it is easy to crack or even break." Ainia added.

Gordon didn't expect the ice goblin queen to be so honest, it wasn't like a way to sell merchandise.

For this one is not contaminated with human vices. Her Majesty, whose heart was as pure and clear as ice crystals, felt that Gordon had a good impression of it—of course. It's not a man's affection for a woman. No matter how gentlemanly he is, he will not have a ** for such a pocket beauty who is only twenty centimeters tall. It's just pure appreciation.

Putting aside Ainia's likable personality, Gordon is already tempted to sign a soul contract with her.

If these goblins can help them create a batch of ice golems, then there is no doubt that the power they can wield in their hands will be greatly enhanced. As for the small flaws of these golems mentioned by the other party, it doesn't matter. He has in his hands an endless metal forge, from the hands of Grand Duke Antero, to this day. A considerable amount of rare metal materials has been stored.

Gordon could use these materials to enhance the Ice Golem and make them even more powerful than the originals made by Antioch.

Also, although a bit noisy and annoying, these ice goblins were magical assistants who worked for a Nesser's Grand Arcanist. With them there, this underground magic room can be restarted soon after resting. Then you'll be able to do a lot of things with it.

If you rely on your own strength, whether it is to recruit or train a group of assistants, it is almost impossible to re-operate this real yàn room, with Gordon's current strength.

After weighing it up, Gordon finally decided to sign a soul contract with Ainia.

After a short magical ritual. The contract was completed in this underground stone chamber. Ania flew around Gordon, leaving a chilling aura around him.

The former Ice Fairy Queen pulled up the hem of her skirt, revealing her crystal white calves, and then said to Gordon, "I can feel how powerful the life source can be from you!" I can't believe that a mage has such a strong vitality. I feel much better. Maybe it will be fully recovered in a few days. Thank you for saving my life, from now on. You are my master. ”

"Humph!" Brian seemed to know that although he was also a servant of Gordon, he was really not competitive with Ainia in terms of appearance alone, so he snorted sourly.

And the other little goblins, seeing that their queen Xià has now become Gordon's servant, have no objections. After all, there is an absolute distinction between the upper and lower classes of the elven creatures, so they immediately accepted Ainia's idea.

"Mage, will you also be our master in the future?"

"What song do you like to listen to? What color do you like? ”

"We'll work for you in the future, can you make us eat sweet and good things?"

A group of little ones gathered around Gordon, asking questions. Their attitudes had changed dramatically, and they didn't even laugh at Brian so much.

Gordon knew that these little goblins were just simple-minded creatures, and it was very easy to subdue them as long as they did what they liked.

"Don't you guys have a sweet tooth? I may not be good at other dishes, but I have a knack for making zuò desserts...... When the time comes, there will be the temptation of food, and the value of the labor of your employees will have to be squeezed clean by me, the capitalist...... "Gordon thought.

…………

Half a month has passed since the night when the source energy tide was born.

In the space of twenty days, Gordon's new city has changed dramatically. More than 150 neatly planned wooden houses have been built. Based on the fact that two families of eight people lived in one house, almost 1,200 people lived in these houses.

The first to move into this new city were the seafarers and their families who originally lived in the slums of Cloud Scale City, a total of 400 people. The other residents are all artisans.

Five hundred shipbuilders from the King of Hyperven. It was impossible for the other party to honestly give the experienced shipbuilders to Gordon, and the five hundred men were not only mixed with spies, but also some promiscuous people who could not do any carpentry work except to hammer nails. But despite this, these people are also a valuable asset in Gordon's hands.

And Gordon originally had 300 craftsmen, the queen was very sweet, and assigned him a hundred stonemasons, a hundred craftsmen, and a hundred blacksmiths. These people can almost meet the needs of economic development and territorial construction. They are also technical talents, so they naturally have to give priority to living in a good house.

As for Gordon and Sheona, they lived in a comfortable castle even more luxuriously.

Their home, of course, is Strindberg.

Why would a castle that had been smashed to ruins be restored in just half a month?

The reason is not complicated.

Because under the activity of Ainia, the ice elves took the lead in repairing an arcane energy replenisher in the underground magic room. This machine absorbs the energy generated by the Underground Ice Energy Gem, which can be used to replenish the consumption of any magic item that can be used repeatedly.

Originally, Gordon wanted to replenish his Architect's Staff with depleted spells, and he needed to prepare earth-attribute gems such as ochre or citrine, and perform complex and time-consuming spell casting steps to replenish the consumed spells. And there is also a premise, that is, he has the spells stored in the staff.

However, with the Arcane Refiller, you can directly put the magic item up, and after activating it, wait for a while to complete it.

Gordon has a total of four Architect's Staffs, which are used in turn and recharged in turn. Fossils into mud, mud into stone, stone plastic, rock metamorphism and other spells continue to repair and transform Strindberg, coupled with the guidance of Brian, who has a wealth of architectural and artistic knowledge, the rebuilt Strindberg can be said to be a model of aristocratic residence.

Of course, the castle has now been renamed "Sea Cliff Castle". With no historical connotation, no elegant artistic touch, Gordon is so named simply because it sits on a cliff by the sea.
