Emperor of Arcane

If it were in the past, Matthew would have invested most of his energy and resources in himself and Yaya.

With the two of them in front, they would most likely be able to withstand a lot of pressure and allow the Bay Territory to develop steadily.

But the deeper Matthew and Yaya understood the divine power, the more thoroughly they studied the state and existence of the gods.

Matthew understood a truth: if the high gods were really separated from the civilization they relied on.

Only a few gods can survive alone, and the civilization they rely on will most likely be destroyed in the long civilization growth and competition.

Without the source of power, and no intelligent creatures to remember, even the traces of their existence will be destroyed by the enemy.

Such gods often become prey to other gods, either falling or falling into a deep sleep that can never wake up again.

This means that the route Matthew has been taking before is not wrong.

It is not enough to develop cutting-edge combat power, the development of the territory must also keep up.

Not to mention, the current Gulf Territory has developed very well in the material plane and various demiplanes.

The Gulf Territory has passed the stage where Matthew and Yaya need to take care of them frequently.

Instead, they can prepare a large amount of supplies for them and provide various support.

Now most of Matthew and Yaya's energy has returned to improving their personal strength.

But they don't have to worry about anything at all. If they need something, they can basically get it quickly as long as they give an order.

Occasionally, when they have time, they will control their clones to appear in various areas of the Gulf Territory in order to rest or change their minds.

Matthew needs to understand the situation in various areas, and at the same time, make advance preparations and directly eliminate possible dangers.

He and Yaya often take action, and the momentum caused by their actions is getting bigger and bigger.

One is to quickly solve the enemy, and the other is to cooperate with the territory to do better publicity.

For the people of the Gulf Territory in the territory.

Seeing the various battle images of Matthew and Yaya, they will naturally be very moved.

Most people will want to be like them, so they will naturally work harder.

Others will also be more willing to pray, and while getting some benefits, they also want to experience possible power.

The growth rate of Yaya's followers slowed down a bit, but it was just right for her to adapt and digest better.

Matthew and Yaya's big move, replacing the changes of the Bay Territory, successfully attracted a lot of attention.

Many lords and nobles who tried to become gods naturally became more determined after seeing Yaya getting stronger and Matthew's strength getting stronger.

Driven by Matthew and Yaya, they also chose the most effective path at present, with Matthew and Yaya leading the way.

The road to fighting!

They also began to take action frequently, constantly showing their strength and ability, and cooperating with the Bay Territory to do publicity. While improving their strength, they also laid a good foundation for embarking on the road to becoming a god.

After all, if you want to withstand the transformation of the dragon warrior of the Bay Territory, even if you are a legendary professional, you must do it in stages, and relax your body and mind and make various adjustments.

With their actions, the Naga sea monsters that are still wreaking havoc on the coast finally began to suffer setbacks and sieges.

Especially for those Naga armies that go deep into the land and occupy various important water systems.

Many lords and nobles have motivation and reasons to take action.

Whether it is to increase influence, fight for more territory, or take advantage of other small territories to incorporate them while they suffer heavy losses.

They can get tangible benefits.

For the large-scale orc disaster, these lords and nobles also have the same purpose.

However, they often do one or two more.

Test the new weapons they purchased from the Gulf Territory, and by the way, see what the difference is between the various weapons they have researched and those of the Gulf Territory.

They can't buy everything from the Gulf Territory, let alone weapons and magic props.

But they soon found that the various technologies they concentrated their manpower to develop and research were far inferior to the current production technology of the Gulf Territory.

At best, it was equivalent to the level when the Gulf Territory was just established, when Matthew needed to use the power of destiny alone to conduct difficult research and breakthroughs.

The more they realized the gap between the two sides, the more they had to invest resources and manpower.

They thought very clearly that the prospects for golem technology and mechanical production were already clear.

Its influence on the battle situation and its destructive power on the enemy have gradually broken through the constraints of numbers and personal strength.

It happened that the elemental tide came, and the output of various magic materials and supplies became increasingly large.

Even the birth of magic talents has become more and more.

With such conditions and opportunities, they can trade with the Gulf Territory from time to time.

They must seize it firmly!

After all, if the gap between their strength and the Gulf Territory is too large.

Even if the Gulf Territory has no intention of them, they will be scared enough!

Their ideas are quite good, and their choice of direction is more courageous than that of the Cole Elf Kingdom.

The other party did not make major changes in strategic direction because of the changes brought about by the elemental tide.

It is just that more combat armor, magic artillery and other weapons are produced, instead of being incorporated into the entire production system.

It is precisely because of their attraction of firepower that the Gulf Territory can complete a new round of transformation at this critical time node.

The dramatic changes brought about by the elemental tides have temporarily put the Gulf Territory in a state of contraction and digestion.

The reorganization and refitting of the entire army is being carried out in an orderly manner.

Research on various new magic materials.

Organize and digest various trading techniques.

Develop and research various professional inheritances.

Complete the design and transformation of a more powerful production plant.

Try to build a floating city.

Carry out more dragon warrior transformation and optimization.

There are many things to do for the elites of all levels in the Gulf Territory.

To be more precise, it makes them busier.

With something to do, they can work harder and make various breakthroughs by the way, so as to get more achievements and rewards.

Diligent cultivation of internal skills is naturally to make the Gulf Territory better.

Practicing martial arts more is also to better protect the Gulf Territory.

Make the soldiers stronger, the adventurers more outstanding, and the legion stronger.

What Matthew has to do next is to develop and improve a better training manual for the Gulf Territory professionals according to the various regions, combat environments and requirements of the Gulf Territory.

In addition to researching the most efficient "cultivation" method, arranging relevant personnel for targeted "actual combat training" has also become a top priority.

Fortunately, Matthew now has a series of super control centers such as Fairy Tale to help.

With the coordinated calculation of data and various conditions, the Gulf Territory quickly came up with a more comprehensive and excellent training manual.

During the training process, everyone soon discovered the difference.

A statue was erected at the core of each training site - the statue of Matthew!

Just like the introduction of the Yaya statue before, the introduction of the Matthew statue was engraved on the side.

"The guide of the growth path, the wise and powerful Arcane Emperor, Lord Matthew will guide everyone's growth and progress."

"When praying, bring a Gulf Territory silver coin and make offerings, which will increase the training effect by about 15%."

"Special prayer: Record and provide your own insights and skills during training, which can get inspiration bursts and increase the chance of breaking through skills and ranks by 10%."

These three simple sentences made all the trainers who entered the training ground take money out of their pockets without hesitation.

There is no way, the value of this 1 silver coin is too high!

As Matthew's statue lit up, gentle power was bestowed on every trainer.

They didn't want to waste time and started training immediately.

When they used the buff on Yaya's statue before, they knew that the blessing was time-limited.

Yaya's blessing lasted only two hours, and Matthew's would be the same.

After starting training, the trainers soon found that the training of skills and techniques had received very effective feedback.

It allowed them to feel the changes and guidance process of various forces in the body more accurately and clearly.

This made them overjoyed. Such a clear feeling allowed them to keenly perceive the improvement changes obtained from training.

This can enhance their confidence invisibly.

The actual effect improvement is far more than 15%.

Various training ideas were gradually transmitted to Matthew's "ears".

Matthew, who had summed up his experience and made advance preparations, easily burned these thoughts and ideas.

He didn't need these powers, just to further adapt.

It won't be long before he can continue to increase his efforts after he has fully adapted.

From the other information and data Matthew has learned, he found that the demigod body has a very important role.

Otherwise, even these residual thoughts and ideas are enough to drive people crazy.

Of course, this is also because Matthew has to bear too many prayers at one time.

The Gulf Territory currently has a population of more than 10 million, and there are nearly 1.5 million adventurers.

In about three days, almost everyone will undergo at least one training.

The huge ritual reaction naturally brought some discomfort to Matthew.

Fortunately, Matthew has adapted to it, made corresponding preparations, and arranged enough means to ensure the effective progress of the method of becoming a god.

Matthew can also clearly feel that after completing a large number of prayer rituals, his mastery of divine power and divinity has been greatly improved.

He has been able to import thoughts and intentions into his own power, thus forming special changes.

This kind of power with a "brainwashing" effect makes Matthew feel amazed.

He is ready to conduct a deeper study of the essence and rules to improve the utilization rate of his abilities.

After all, for a single adventurer, a 15% training speed increase is already exaggerated enough.

Not to mention for the entire Bay Territory!

Such a huge increase was only exchanged for 1 silver coin. Matthew felt that he was still too "merciful".

Of course, you can be merciful to your own people, but there is no need to be merciful to others.

After thinking it over, Matthew naturally decided to directly arrange a price increase for those who did not join the Bay Territory.

From one silver coin to one gold coin, a mere 100 times increase should not be expensive at all!

Of course, Matthew didn't have any idea about the money. Instead, he was happy to give it to the professionals and adventurers who spread the statues, and only charge a little cost.

It was still Matthew's strategy for the future gods of the Bay Territory!

"As long as we don't ask for too much and are not greedy, we can always remain independent and not be affected by its power."

"When we grow to a high enough level, understand the nature of power, and can handle and control it, we can get rid of this bondage..."

"The road to becoming a god is the road to becoming stronger, but it is also a shackle..."

Matthew shared his insights with Yaya while conducting research.

At the same time, he was silently paying attention to the self-development of the Gulf Territory to see if they could still operate normally and develop rapidly without his guidance.

This is very important!

In the next two months.

The entire Gulf Territory was in a state of development and digestion.

The improvement of the effect of national cultivation, under the influence of the elemental tide and Matthew's blessing, far exceeded 15%, at least reaching more than 30%.

And, with Matthew's improvements and the manifestation of the elemental tide effect, the improvement of the cultivation speed is becoming faster and faster.

In these two months, thousands of super-class professionals and tens of thousands of high-level professionals emerged in the Gulf Territory.

The number of beginner professionals has also increased from 3 million to 6 million.

The huge number of professionals has led to even more amazing demand.

The professionals trained by the Gulf Territory alone have consumed a lot of Gulf Territory's goods and materials.

Under this circumstance, the efficiency and scale of the Gulf Territory's manufacturing plants have been further developed and improved.

The development results of the entire Gulf Territory are very gratifying, and more and more professionals and various professional talents have begun to emerge in an endless stream.

The original training venues are already a bit crowded.

Even though the Gulf Territory has opened a number of actual combat training bases in various regions.

It is already somewhat unable to meet the growing demand.

In this case, the Gulf Territory decided to further develop the demiplane.

In various regions of various demiplanes, build suitable and efficient actual combat training bases.

To achieve this, it is essential to invest more manpower and resources.

The adventurers and professionals of the Gulf Territory are also willing to go to different demiplanes to experience different excitement.

Small-scale actual combat bases are easy to build and control, and are also very flexible and effective.

But to verify large-scale soldier combat, you need to choose a suitable opponent.

Although the turbulence of the elemental tides has led to an increasing danger in many demiplanes.

But they are more suitable for small-scale or individual combat and training.

Even the Catachan demiplane cannot withstand the increasingly fierce firepower and destructive power of the Gulf Territory's regular army.

In this case, the Gulf Territory set its sights on the Mind Flayer Empire, which has shown its prowess in the underground world.

In addition to finding suitable opponents for the soldiers, completing large-scale actual combat training, integrating their combat effectiveness, and improving large-scale legion combat experience.

The Gulf Territory also found a better reason and excuse-the Shadow Plane!

The Shadow Plane is different from the Shadow Plane. The latter is due to the influence of the shadow power, which changes the environment of the entire plane.

The Shadow Plane is because the essential composition of the plane is different.

It is equivalent to the difference between the main material plane and the many elemental planes around it.

The Shadow Plane allows special life such as souls and resentful souls to exist and survive more easily.

The existence of the shadow plane is equivalent to a natural soul storage area, and it is the most ideal construction site for the Gulf Territory's "City of Heaven" plan.

More importantly, the concealment and special nature of the half plane determine that the Gulf Territory can completely control it.

If there are any mistakes and accidents, the Gulf Territory can also solve them relatively easily.

The Gulf Territory Command, which has long collected enough information about the Mind Flayer Empire, quickly began to customize and discuss combat plans after determining that the other party is the target.

October 6.

After several months of precipitation, the Gulf Territory once again dispatched a large army.

But most forces soon discovered that the Gulf Territory did not launch an attack in all directions.

Nor did it attack the lords and nobles of various places in the northern continent as some people said.

They only knew that the Gulf Territory's army was gathering and being sent to the combat area, but they didn't know where the destination was.

Various voices soon emerged, trying to put pressure on the Gulf Territory in public opinion.

There are also some guys with ulterior motives who also want to explore the secrets of the Gulf Territory in this regard.

Who knew that the Gulf Territory suddenly launched an investigation and cleanup operation throughout the territory.

A large number of corrupt officials were removed from office, and spies and spies with various identities were quickly caught.

The movement caused by this immediately made many forces wait and see.

Is the Gulf Territory preparing to secretly attack a target by making such a move?

Or is the purpose of the Gulf Territory to clean up the internal affairs?

Just as they were speculating, the army sent out by the Gulf Territory had already arrived in the underground world through a large teleportation array.

The army sent out by the Gulf Territory did not intervene in the frontal battlefield between the Mind Flayer Empire and the Drow Elves.

Instead, it followed the Gulf Territory's own territory and advanced towards the former capital of the Gray Dwarf Empire.

The purpose of their doing so was to block the retreat of the Mind Flayer Empire's army.

But it will not completely block it, preventing the opponent from jumping over the wall, and will only actively attract the opponent to launch an attack.

The difficulty and certainty in this process are very high, requiring strong strength, accurate intelligence, and strong enough skills.

Compared with the difficult land reclamation in those days, the current advance of the Gulf leading forces can be said to be overwhelming.

There are no underground creatures or dangers that can stop their progress.

Even some dangerous magical biological communities fled in fear when faced with the legion of dragon-blooded creatures that opened the way.

For this opened road, the Gulf Territory will naturally build it all the way.

Energy channels, golem train tracks, magic concrete pavements, fixed-point teleportation circles, defensive bunkers and rest camps will all be constructed in an orderly manner.

The advancement speed of the Bay Territory is not fast, but it is extremely stable and easy.

The Gulf Territory consciously exercised the advancing ability of the troops, and did not choose to let one team open the way in front, conducting relatively frequent rotations.

Even if they are opening a road, they can still treat it as part of their military training.

At the same time, more information came from the gray elves.

Gray elves who have been observing and influencing the war between the drow and the mind flayer empire.

Under the leadership of Sera, he continues to do an increasingly large-scale business.

In addition to selling a series of items such as food, weapons, equipment, potions, etc. to the drow troops.

Sera also did not forget to prepare various pleasure tools specially produced for them from the Gulf Territory for these drows who were greedy for enjoyment.

A wide variety of fine wines.

Silk as perfect as a work of art.

Daily necessities that contain magic technology, such as magic image screens and photo machines.

There are also delicacies from all over the northern continent.

Compared with cheap and affordable war supplies, the prices of these daily necessities for pleasure are dozens of times higher.

Drow elves who are not short of money often buy in large quantities.

In their opinion, the current situation is so dangerous, and they may die one day, so it is better to enjoy themselves, at least they have been happy.

Sera, who knew how much fun they had, said with great emotion while happily earning various resources:

"The drow elves are still too closed-minded and are not as versatile as the Cole elves."

Famil, who seemed to have remembered something, couldn't help but rolled his eyes at her and continued to introduce detailed information:

"The number of troops sent by the Mind Flayer Empire to the frontal battlefield has reached 1.7 million."

"There are 4,762 mind flayers among them, and there are a lot of followers of various types. Currently, more than 2/3 of the mind flayers have not participated in the attack."

"Moblesor City still did not take action, but continued to send more envoys to summon more drow city troops deep underground..."

Sera was not surprised by this, although she did not know how many drow there were.

But I also understand that what is shown in front of me is only a small part of it.

Perhaps the drow goddess Rose, who has awakened long ago, is promoting changes in the entire underground world.

"As more intelligence is sent over, we continue to focus on our mission."

"We can seize this opportunity to quickly recruit more people."

"It doesn't matter what they think. As long as they obediently serve us and work for us, someone will naturally take care of them."

After hearing this, Farmiel couldn't help but recall his past, a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he shrugged helplessly.

The gray dwarf forces who had received the notice from the Gulf Territory were working hard this time, preparing to accept the employment of the Gulf Territory and have a great time.

The Mind Flayer Empire army, which was still ignorant of all this, sent out a large number of slave warriors as usual, heading towards the drow fortress in a mighty manner.

They don't care whether they can win, they just want these experimental products and consumables to create greater value.

Coincidentally, the Bay Territory thinks of them that way too! (End of chapter)
