Chapter 577: I'm Here to Invade (Part II)

【2nd Update】

Grand Duke Pompey did a lot of calculations, but he didn't realize that he had a problem in this place.

Qin Yin's Imperial Bank, which was under the control of the royal family of Glücks, was reputable, and most nobles were willing to deposit their money here. But he has a ghost in his heart, so he will exchange at least half of his finances for magic cores or gold coins and hide them in his own home.

Although Chanak the Great did not send people to his territory to search for evidence, he was able to deduce that most of the funds in the entire territory of Pompeii did not go through the Imperial Bank. Therefore, Chanak the Great arranged the means and used three marquis to cut off the connection between him and the southwestern nobles.

After inspecting the barracks outside the city, Saleen felt that these soldiers could still be entrusted with important tasks, as long as there were enough mages, it would not be a problem to defend the small city in front of them.

An hour passed quickly, and more than a dozen magic cannons set up by Saleen attacked at the same time, and the thick energy pillar instantly collapsed the Earl's Palace.

It is a group of demons who control the magic cannon, and for the demon's body that is more than five meters tall, the magic cannon is also a behemoth. These demons have been following Salin for a long time, and they also think that the Myers continent is more interesting, and slowly they don't have the mind to return to the demon plane. Joining the Temple Legion is the goal of these demons.

It's a pity that if you join the Temple Legion, you rarely have the opportunity to fight. After all, the kingdom of Salin is still in a safe state until now. This time, although it was ravaging the enemy, it also made the demons very happy.

Almost immediately, the magic cannons launched a second attack, and a dozen magic cannons accurately hit their targets near ruins. The City Lord's Mansion was completely destroyed, although it was not like the Elemental Magic Tower's thousands of demons repeatedly attacked, but it was difficult to find the value of repair.

Next, Saleen waited outside the city. After about half a day, the Count took the initiative to withdraw from the city with his thousands of troops, and it was obvious that Saleen was disgusting him, so this time he was very knowledgeable, and did not make any requests, just took all his people away from his homeland.

"Sooner or later, one day, I'll be back," said the Earl, with tears in his eyes, in front of his cronies, and then urged the convoy to the east. The army of the southwestern nobles did not besiege the city, but only displayed the army in the west, and the count walked very calmly, freely, and tragically......

However, the mages behind him still looked back with some nostalgia, and they were not nostalgic for the city, but for the person who was about to enter the city, Salin.

We all know that there are countless mages under Sarin, even if it is a low-level mage, he can have the opportunity to gain favor and have the right to receive preferential treatment. It is said that Master Salin's student was originally a low-level mage, and within a few years of following Master Salin, he became a ninth-level magician.

These mages also have a conscience, the Count has provided for them for many years, and the mages have no intention of betraying. When the Earl's favor is returned later, there will definitely be some of these mages who want to take refuge in Saleen.

The kingdom of Metatrin in Saleen has now become something like an alchemy city, at least among mages.

Joining Metatrin City is much more difficult than joining Alchemy City, but once entered, the living environment is much better than Alchemy City, at least in Alchemy City, almost all of the mage's money is earned by Alchemy City, and in Metatrin City, as long as they are diligent mages, most of them will have some savings, even if they leave Metatrin City for a while, they will not become embarrassed.

This accumulation refers to the magic core.

Even if you can't enter Metatrin City, it's not bad to be able to go to Lone Star City, Lone Star City is the world of necromancers, and elemental mages can also have a place. In Lone Star City, the lord of the city, Count Ani, will regularly give lectures to the mages, communicate with each other, and learn magic in an excellent atmosphere.

There is also the bitter water county belongs, the bitter water county is the king of Rex, the county king and Saleen are husband and wife, and the treatment of the county king there still seems to be good, it should be supported by Saleen.

If these mages weren't in the way, they wouldn't be willing to confront Salin, even if they spoke ill of Salin. Unknowingly, Saleen has established enough influence in the field of mages.

In addition to Metatrin's combat power, it was Metatrin City that destroyed Alchemy City's control over the demon core resources. Especially recently, the mages of Metatrin City have been able to refine the magic furnace and create all kinds of puppets, and it is relatively easy to enter the frozen sea, and the number of demonic beasts in the sea that can be hunted has increased, and the supply of magic cores has never bothered Saleen again.

The cultivation of a mage itself does not require a magic core, but every mage is in a race against time, and before his life reaches the end, if he can cross a large level, his life span can be extended much. Therefore, mages need magic cores to shorten their daily cultivation time and free up more time to study the mysteries of magic.

Salin took control of the magic core and shook the alchemy city's magic core price system, which made the alchemy city very annoyed, the previous negotiations were fruitless, and the conflict between the two sides was inevitable.

So Salin said that he did not hate the Grand Duke of Pompey, but that the Grand Duke of Pompey was unlucky.

The count's army withdrew, the gates opened, and Salin commanded his army to begin to enter the city. Most of the tens of thousands of people in the city were not too frightened, and Salin did not go too far, but just asked the soldiers to put up a notice stating that the Kingdom of Metatrin had requisitioned the city and that the people in the city needed to be evacuated.

Of course, this is a lie, and Salin intends to let the southwestern nobles occupy the city and attract the Grand Duke of Pompey to attack, and he will go straight to Pompeii.

Already possessing absolute power, Saleen now needed a reason to attack Pompey.

After entering the city, the first thing to do was not to evacuate the residents, but to build a new wall around the ruins of the city lord's mansion, Salin asked everyone not to approach, the power of the domain was released, and the entire city was shrouded in it, Salin controlled the power of the puppet world, and let the puppets rebuild a mansion.

This mansion will be the command center in the future, and the spatial coordinates that Salin is looking for are also under the city lord's mansion, otherwise Salin would not waste the energy of the magic cannon to bombard buildings with no military value.

The Elemental Magic Tower was not used this time, but in order to avoid danger on the way, Salin was still ready to build some fortifications above the space passage.

A tall metal building was uprooted from the ground, and Saleen was now a level 10 mage, who simply absorbed the metal from the earth element to build this structure. Anyway, he has Shui Yan alchemy, and those metals have been quenched by Shui Yan, even ordinary metals have become very useful.

It's a huge tower, but the bottom structure is stone, after all, Salin can't absorb the metal in the center of the earth, and the metal that can be refined is only the top of this tower. A thick copper pillar stands in the middle, surrounded by hideous and terrifying metal machinery, surrounding the copper pillar, there are layers of rooms, these rooms, these rooms can be used for the demons to live in the future, there are many mages in the southwestern nobility, but Salin does not want to be lost here.

After the appearance of this building, it immediately became a building that could be seen within a radius of dozens of miles, and Salin immediately increased the city wall, and arranged magic cannons on the city wall. The concept of a level 10 powerhouse was completely different here in Salin, as he had a much more powerful domain.

The puppet world realm is equivalent to a tenth-level magic when used, and it lasts for more than an hour. Moreover, the power of this field does not consume the magic strings. How long can Saleen sustain this field? about 500 hours.

This is all thanks to the ring exchanged from Ebola, which is only now showing its value. The longer a mage maintains a domain, the more powerful it becomes.

This ring can increase Salin's spiritual power by twelve times, and his own spiritual power is much stronger than that of mages of the same level, almost overstepping the level.

Ordinary tenth-level mages, even if they cultivate the power of the realm, the time they can maintain is only ten minutes, and a stronger mage, with the help of some magic potions, can double the spiritual power is considered good.

Salin can maintain a domain for more than five hundred hours, which is equivalent to him being able to use the power of the domain to fight without any scruples, and it will not affect his magic.

The whole city is shrouded in the realm, but ordinary people can't perceive it, Sarin's puppet world can be transformed into a very real thing, those puppets, that is, human forms, there are also birds and beasts, and some puppets that look like buildings, trees, vehicles, etc.

At most, the people in the city will feel that there are more strangers, and there are more buildings that never existed, and this is because Salin is too lazy to control the thinking of these people, otherwise these ordinary people will not be able to perceive the changes around them.

The circumference of the city was six miles, and Saleen simply said that the walls were raised to sixty meters high and divided into two layers, which was conducive to the defense of ordinary troops. The city is equipped with the magic cannon he brought, and a lot of metal towers have been built, the population of this city is not large, but the area is still not very small, and the construction of magic nets is not something that Saleen can do by relying on the domain alone. He just built a prototype, and it was a shame that someone from the Kingdom of Metatrin would arrive to help the nobles of the Southwestern build a city that would be easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Salin said that he had come to invade, and now he had done it, to establish a stronghold in the territory of the earthlings, and it would be strange if the earthlings did not come to attack. The Grand Duke of Pompey had no choice, and Salin, taking advantage of the fact that the Grand Duke of Pompey had not gathered enough strength, first probed what was in the temple here.

The Elemental Magic Tower was taken out, but it was used to contact Metatrin City, first to book some small magic furnaces, so as to build the magic net, and then to invite the mage to come over, the construction of the magic net, need to refine a lot of magic patterns, Salin will build the prototype of the magic net, and the rest will be done by the mage of the alchemy factory.

After arranging everything and waiting for the Grand Duke of Pompey to attack, Salin returned to his original position as the City Lord's Mansion, and under the tall metal tower, he used the divine power in the Ring of Gifts to open the spatial passage.
