Before ascending to God, be a good lord

The last time the legendary panda Xiu Ming came near the iron mine, he opened the portal and sent the fire-marked ammonite over.

Xiu Ming remembered that the iron mine at that time could be regarded as a larger viscounty at most, even compared to the orc cities in the Hindukel Basin, it was much inferior.

However, when he arrived again on February 2, earth-shaking changes had taken place here.

First, there is the small lake that falls on the mountain near the iron mine. It has now been renamed Hematite Lake. Now the lake has doubled in area along the tributary of Luoyue River in the northeast.

Viewed from the sky, the originally completely frozen lake surface has become civilized, and faint traces of the magic circle can be seen at the bottom of the lake.

The side of the lake against the mountain, which is the original water area of ​​Hematite Lake, is much deeper than before, reaching at least more than 6 meters. In comparison, the new water area is slightly shallower, but the depth at the shallowest point is 7. meters.

Further to the northeast, the area that will be included in the Chitie Lake in the future extends nearly 7 kilometers along the Luoyue River tributary toward the West 30th Castle. It is a large construction site, with teams of teams busy constructing and digging on the land divided into squares. ,build a wall,

Even about 30 kilometers to the northeast are surrounded. It seems to be a long-term plan for a man-made lake.

In addition to the new lake area, the iron ore mine itself has also undergone tremendous changes. A number of urban areas have been built along the lakeshore. The most distinctive features of these new urban areas are the houses along the shore. Each of them has a considerable area extending into the lake, like A small pier, these coastal houses also specifically meet the needs of the sea beast tribe, with a large number of platforms set up on the roof for them to bask in the sun.

In addition to flooded houses, the original central roads in several urban areas have been changed into rivers. The houses on both sides are connected by stone bridges on the 2nd and 3rd floors. The houses below the first floor are completely immersed in water, forming a three-dimensional building that runs above and below the water. , these urban areas undoubtedly supply the finless porpoise tribe and the mermaid tribe.

Standing on the top of the mountain beside the lake, the panda smiled at Lant beside him and said: "It seems that Lant you are really confident in yourself. This is designed according to tens of thousands of residents. You are not going to put Ben Are the sea beasts and finless porpoises from Ma Lake and Luoyue Lake all moving here?"

"Don't tell me, that's what I think," Lant said confidently, "I also told the leader of Zoya that if the harpies are interested, some of them can migrate here."

Lant's plan aroused the interest of the Pandaren: "Your Majesty Lant, can your people accept it?"

"They don't have any objections. Even if there are 10,000 residents living on the surface and underwater, it will not affect humans. On the contrary, the magic algae and underwater monsters they cultivate in the entire lake can also provide the city with more Plenty of supply.”

Lant pointed to the mountains at his feet and said, "The mountain you see has been renamed Hot Spring Mountain. I am going to rename the iron mine Hot Spring City. This will become a home for finless porpoises, sea beasts, mermaids and humans." , the lakes around the city will never freeze."

As for the name of the city, Lant spent a long time choosing between Tieling, Wendu Shuicheng, Baoshan and Chifeng, and finally decided on one that a local would understand.

"The lake will not freeze..." the Pandaren whispered, and in an instant he understood that Lant had solved the underwater magic furnace. "Congratulations, you finally figured out the secret of the shell. It seems that this The lake will become a prosperous, bountiful body of water.”

Lant specially invited the legendary Pandaren here today, not only to announce a new city plan, but also to announce his plan to the most important organization in the empire. About 2 hours later, Louis Shendu, the principal from the Imperial Magic School, and Klein, the chief legend of the Tower of Purity, came to the observation room around the underwater magic furnace room with Lant and the Pandaren.

Lant pointed to the flame shell that was emitting red light in the window and said to the three legends:

"Your Excellencies, as you can see, under the guidance of His Majesty Willy, I completed the first underwater magic furnace that can transmit magic power to water bodies," Lant introduced. "Therefore, I decided to expand the area near Hot Spring Mountain. The size of the lake makes this a city where races on the ground and underwater races live together.”

"Build a city like this within the empire..." Louis Shendu muttered.

"Yes, the sea beast tribe and the finless porpoise tribe are originally residents of the plains. Of course, the city I build must take into account their habitation." Lant did not explain too much, but continued, "Not only that, I want to build A hot spring mountain branch of Galloping Horse Academy, where water magic, freshwater magic algae and the medical treatment of underwater races are explored."

"Well," Panda nodded, "Don't worry, Red Dragon Rock will appoint Mr. Crocodile Dragon to come over and teach water magic here."

Hearing that a demigod dragon would enter the Galloping Horse Plains, Klein couldn't help but said: "I thought the Red Dragon Rock Association would appoint Lord Revendia to be stationed in the Galloping Horse Plains!"

Louis said in a strange tone: "Perhaps Mr. Kroc misses Gu Leiya too much."

Xiu Ming's words also aroused the dissatisfaction of Klein and Lewis. The legends of the Imperial City all hope that the dragon clan inside Red Dragon Rock will live in the Dragon Kingdom and involve as little as possible in imperial matters.

"That... is a mermaid?" Klein suddenly saw Beborn through the window, who had recovered and was studying in the underwater magic furnace.

"It seems so..." Louis was about to say a few sarcastic remarks when he discovered that more and more mermaids entered the magic furnace from the entrances in all directions. They kept rotating around the shell and hung transparent magic furnaces nearby. Pattern breeding tanks and even mermaids releasing some small freshwater fish.

Looking from the observation room to the magic furnace room, the conch shell in the room looks like a huge pillar, and the mermaids and magic algae surrounding it look like a school of fish, giving it the illusion of an aquarium.

"Everyone, these are the experiments we conducted around the underwater magic furnace. They are mainly to test the impact of high concentration of magic power on magic plants and magic fish." Lant introduced, "If conditions are mature in the future, I hope to conduct experiments on the east side of the hot spring lake. Build a larger underwater farm on the side.”

"These mermaid subordinates of yours... must not be sent by Poseidon, right?" Louis finally couldn't help but say it. He had never seen a war between Lant and mermaids before, so it was difficult to imagine that so many mermaids appeared. In inland lakes, and seems to have no conflict with freshwater groups.

Klein also glanced at Xiu Ming and asked, "Lant, don't you think the number of your subordinates is a bit irritating?"

"Your Excellencies, I have to keep something for such a big tank, right?" Lant joked, "If the cost wasn't too high, I really want to have a marine tank here!"
