The Witcher: Elemental Lords

Albis City was built on the west side of the Albis Mountains, less than seventy kilometers away from the Northern Wilderness Mountains. A trade route will be built here in the future, coming from the desert on the edge of Du City, passing through the buffer zone between the Albis Mountains and the Northern Wilderness Mountains, and leading all the way to the east.

Although the Albis Mountains are an extension of the Northern Wilderness Mountains, there is a flat area about fifteen kilometers wide in the middle. A river flows out of the Northern Wilderness Mountains along the roadside, flowing eastward along this flat area. This passage is perfect for road construction.

When the time comes, as long as Dole maintains the road and trade begins on both sides, he won't have to worry about spending money.

Of course, this road has not yet started construction. With this money, he can recruit adventurers, craftsmen, and workers to start researching it.

However, he plans to hand this matter over to Tawa, only providing money and military deterrence, and not interfering with anything else. This will also be a good opportunity to train his subordinates' abilities.

He's not keeping them around to do small things, but to do big things.

When a large number of merchant caravans start to move in here next spring, Dole plans to establish various institutions in the city, forming a complete urban layout, so that he won't be bothered with every little thing every day.

That batch of slaves can also be put to use.

This time, he bought more than a hundred slaves in one go, all of whom have knowledge and cultural literacy. They can be assigned to various departments to manage affairs. Anyway, they don't need too high a salary, and they can even do things well without being whipped. Why not?

The Public Security Department and the Military Department also need to contact Wassenburg and ask them to send a garrison to take over as soon as possible. He doesn't plan to get involved in this aspect. Professional matters should be handled by professionals. Moreover, these two departments are appointed by Wassenburg, and other places can't interfere.

This belongs to vertical management. The local area provides money, and the higher-ups provide people. Of course, the positions are also arranged by the higher-ups, and the local area can also submit a list, which the higher-ups can assess.

On the second day of the new year, many wizards from the Albis City branch of the Glory Wizard Alliance stood outside to watch Dole, the president of the Glory Wizard Alliance, refine a wizard tower.

A complete set of movements was smooth and flowing. Once a material was quenched in his hand, it was neatly placed aside. Then, magic patterns formed from all directions around him, like a magic pattern manufacturing machine, imprinting magic patterns on each material, and then a construct was formed.

What was shocking was his speed. It was simply taking off. There were many alchemy experts around, and when they saw Dole's speed of quenching and imprinting magic patterns, they almost lowered their heads to the ground. This speed was simply unmatched. It was too fast, which made them feel extremely ashamed.

In less than an hour, the foundation of the wizard tower plus one layer was completed.

At this time, everyone discovered that the material of this wizard tower was somewhat special. All of it was made of fire-attribute wood, and the added metal constructs were also mostly fire-attribute. Was this being refined for a fire-attribute wizard?

Moreover, this was an octagonal tower. Who was so extravagant?

When the surrounding people were talking about it, the wizards who came from the Glory Wizard Alliance were somewhat speechless at this time. They had seen the world, but it was the first time they had seen such an exaggerated speed. It was said that even if Dole the wizard didn't refine potions in the future, he could make a fortune by building wizard towers. This was definitely not false. According to this speed, it was definitely more profitable than refining potions.

As a wizard, what is the most crucial thing? If it is a low-level wizard, they will definitely say that combat power is the most crucial thing. Whoever has strong combat power is the object of envy. However, high-level wizards will tell you that the ability to make money is the most crucial thing. Without the ability to make money, no matter how strong you are, it is nothing. With money, you can hire people to refine equipment. With money, you can refine wizard towers. Without money, you can only be considered a thug.

The Albis City branch of the Glory Wizard Alliance has now been established. Dole, as the vice president, has set up several institutions, but the number of people is not large, and there are not many high-level members. Some people are willing to come here from Wassenburg. There are about a hundred people, and now they are basically all standing on their respective wizard towers, looking at the situation outside.

They have also watched Dole refine wizard towers more than once, but every time it is incredibly shocking.

This is a wizard tower, the highest masterpiece of mankind. The achievements of the human race today cannot be overstated by the contribution of the wizard tower. Every time they fight against high-level magical beasts, the wizard tower can always play its due role.

Wizard towers above level seven have the power of certain rules. Once used, their power is comparable to the joint efforts of two or three level seven wizards.

Moreover, in terms of combat power and endurance, the power of the wizard tower is much stronger than that of a level seven wizard of the same level. A wizard tower can basically withstand at least two or more high-level magical beasts of the same level.

This is the representative of the highest wisdom of mankind, the pinnacle of the human race's combat power.

Wizard towers are so excellent, integrating alchemy, magic patterns, construction, and other aspects of great achievements, so the cost is naturally not cheap. Some wizards reach level six, but without the ability to make money, they may not be able to create a wizard tower even in a hundred years.

Now, who is asking Dole the wizard to build a wizard tower for him, and it is an octagonal wizard tower right away. Looking at the materials, they are all top-notch. Everyone is speculating about whose wealthy patron this is.

A day and a night passed quickly. Dole finished building the third floor, and the next morning, he was already building the fourth floor.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on the earth, the snow layer reflected rays of red light, which was very beautiful. At this time, Dole's gaze suddenly turned to the north, and the action of refining the wizard tower suddenly stopped.

There, a small team was fleeing back from the northern continent in a sorry state.

There were no wizards in this team, so there was no way to send a message, but it could be seen that these people were in the stage of fleeing for their lives.

Dole's gaze passed over them and looked north. The eight octagonal wizard towers slowly lit up, and invisible rays of light shot towards the north.

This kind of magic fluctuation was not strong, so it did not attract the attention of others.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Dole's gaze followed these rays of light and turned further north. Soon, he saw traces of a pack of wolves. They were wreaking havoc in the wilderness, eating anything they could eat, and seemed to be starving to madness.

Winter is the time when packs of wolves, foxes, and dogs move out on a large scale.

It's just that this group of wolves is a bit abnormal, their strength is a bit too high, and there are even wolf kings above level three.

When Dole saw this, he immediately released a wolf extermination mission in the wizard tower's mission hall, and notified the city guard to go out of the city to pick up people.

At the same time, Dole also discovered traces of various magical beasts running rampant in other places, and it seemed that they had all come down from the Northern Wilderness Mountains. Their levels were not high, and the highest did not exceed level four, but their strength was very strong, and ordinary people could not deal with them.

That team was an adventure group, not people from the city lord's mansion, so Dole only released the mission and notified the city guard, and then stopped paying attention to it.

Next spring, the trade route will pass through the passage between the Albis Mountains and the Northern Wilderness Mountains, and it may be necessary to fight a few battles with the magical beasts of the Northern Wilderness Mountains. Dole is now refining the wizard tower as a preparation for the future. Another condition for him to refine the wizard tower is to let Akso help him.
