From Wild Mage to Wizard King

King Inte publicly humiliated the envoy sent by the lord and beheaded him. At the same time, he ordered the lords of various places to immediately pay the new taxes for this year, disarm, and go to the palace to plead guilty.

He looked at the body of the envoy hanging on the wall, imagining that he would defeat the resistance of the lords of various places, regain all power in his hands, and his descendants would ascend the throne of the Silver Empire in the future.

He firmly believed that he would become the greatest king in the history of the Kingdom of Inte.

On the other side, the lords of all parties who received the news were furious, and even the most neutral lords could not help it.

Compared with the Silver Empire, the situation in the Kingdom of Inte was relatively good. At least, they did not need to worry about the Green Tide coming to them.

After all, unless the Silver Empire was destroyed by the Green Tide, the Green Tide would definitely not be able to hit them.

Therefore, in the absence of an external crisis, it would not be so easy to extinguish their gunpowder smell.

On May 12, 1449, the various lords of the Kingdom of Inter formed the Grape Lords Alliance and formally launched an uprising against tyranny. Thus, the Grape Lords War broke out.

While the human kingdom of Sinnar was in turmoil, the Northern Kingdom of the North was also not at peace. The news that the current king of the Northern Kingdom was declining in vitality and was dying had already spread throughout the Northern Kingdom.

Although the fight for the crown had already begun in secret when Roland was still in the North.

But before that, it was just an open and secret fight within the rules, sweeping away the weaker factions in the fight for the crown.

However, as the life of the Northern King entered the countdown, the last three factions in the Northern Kingdom that were capable of competing for the crown were also gearing up, waiting for his death.

While the three factions were gearing up, the atmosphere throughout the Northern Kingdom became more and more depressing.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that once the old king dies, unless one faction can quickly suppress the other two factions, a bloody civil war around the crown is doomed to be inevitable.

However, although the outside world has suddenly stirred up a storm, it has not affected the commercial exchanges between the War Committee and the outside world, and there are still a steady stream of resources injected into the committee through commercial trade. Therefore, the War Committee does not care about these changes and just quietly develops.

Although the committee has focused all its energy on the construction and development of the northern wall, spell formations and the army, there are no extra resources to spend on other matters.

However, some simple matters can still be carried out as usual.

On the surface of the Silver Gate, the Dragon Spine Passage, a camp built at the entrance is a little noisy.

Goblins, dwarves, and halflings are communicating with each other in a noisy manner, gathering together in the square of the camp from all directions of the camp.

And outside the square of the camp, a large number of undead are moving all kinds of materials in the camp to the square.

As for the undead that passed by them, whether they were goblins, dwarves, or halflings, they all looked casual, having long been accustomed to the existence of these undead.

After all, the Silver Gate is located on the Dragon Ridge Mountains. Whether it is moving supplies from the War Committee or moving supplies from the Silver Gate, it is a labor-intensive task.

Therefore, after the development of necromancy, the transportation problems here were soon handed over to the undead.

The number of undead in the current Silver Gate is at least ten or twenty times that of living people.

Even if they were a little surprised to see the undead when they first came, they became numb and accustomed to it after staying for a long time and seeing too much.

Undead is undead, anyway, they are all transformed from pure natural undead, not the corpses of their own people, so it doesn’t matter, as long as they are useful.

While they were communicating, they quickly gathered at the square. After arriving at the square, everyone lowered their voices and divided into small groups, communicating in a low voice.

The small groups in the square are basically divided by race, goblins with goblins, dwarves with dwarves, halflings with halflings, and there are very few cases of mixed races.

Even if there are, they are basically goblins and halflings, or dwarves and halflings. There is no goblin and dwarf mixed team at all, at least not in this square.

After all, the relationship between goblins and dwarves is not very good. The two sides have been fighting each other in the Dragon Spine Mountains for many years. The hatred between them began when the Kingdom of Clans was founded.

Countless goblins were captured by dwarves and became slaves of the dwarves, becoming the fuel for the rise of the Kingdom of Clans. The goblins also hid in the Dragon Spine Mountains, constantly attacking lone dwarves or weakly defended dwarf territories.

However, this hatred is a bit old for the current dwarves and goblins.

After the collapse of the Kingdom of Clans, the goblin slaves broke free from their shackles and fled into the Dragon Spine Mountains, and the dwarves also weakened one by one into their current appearance.

Let alone going to the Dragon Spine Mountains to capture goblin slaves, the dwarves were lucky to control the dwarf territories they had.

Therefore, the dwarves and goblins rarely had any contact.

In the thousands of years since the collapse of the Dragon Spine Mountains, the dwarves and goblins have changed several times, and there has been little contact between them, so this hatred has naturally not continued to this day.

Of course, this is only the case for the dwarf clans and goblin clans that have little contact with each other.

Some dwarf clans that still retain the tradition of enslaving goblin slaves have inherited this hatred with the nearby goblin clans until now, and they are fighting passionately with each other.

However, Roland does not need to consider this, because in the West Dragon Ridge Mountains, the only dwarf clan that retains the tradition of enslaving goblin slaves has been destroyed by the Green Tide because it blocked the road, and most of the nearby goblin clans were also killed when they welcomed the Green Tide King.

Now the dwarves and goblins under the rule of the War Committee basically have no inherited hatred, so they will not fight.

At most, because of the influence of each other's culture, they hate each other a little and don't like to cooperate with each other.

But if you want to talk about deep hatred, dwarves and goblins don't have this feeling, even the old dwarves who have lived for more than a hundred years among the silver dwarves are the same.

As a race of the origin of Sinar, the halflings have no historical conflicts with the dwarves and goblins, so they can form a small team with dwarves or goblins.

In less than ten minutes, everyone was gathered.

After everyone arrived, a goblin mechanic wearing the uniform of the war committee, with a metallic luster on his skin, two eyes, one red and one blue, and less than 1.2 meters tall, walked onto the platform in the square.

After walking onto the platform, he looked at the people who were still whispering in the square and spoke.

"Quiet!"

Although his voice was not loud, it covered everyone in the square.

Under his voice, everyone in the square also quieted down, stopped talking one by one, and looked at the goblin mechanic on the platform.

"Now, start the roll call, temporary team leaders, report the number."

After everyone was quiet and looked at him, the goblin mechanic nodded, picked up the list in his right hand, and spoke.

"Gael."

"Here, the team members should be present: 10 people, and the actual number is 10 people."

"Behrens."

"Here, the team members should be present: 7 people, and the actual number is 7 people."

"Kiru."

"Here. The team members should be present: 12 people, and the actual number is 12 people."

"."

As the goblin mechanic called the roll, the temporary team leaders of the teams in the square raised their hands one by one to answer the situation of their respective teams.

The goblin mechanic called the roll quickly, and in less than ten minutes, everyone in the entire square completed the roll call.

All members are here.

"Roll call is completed. Now, everyone, enter the Dragon Ridge Passage in order according to the roll call order. The support target this time is: Camp No. 5, set off!"

The goblin mechanic collected the list, and after leaving the last sentence, he walked down the platform directly.

"Yes!"

Everyone in the square responded in unison.

Then, under the leadership of the goblin artificer, the people in the square walked into the Dragon Spine Passage beside the camp in an orderly manner. At the same time, the undead in the square also carried various supplies and followed behind them.

The War Committee also attached great importance to the exploration and excavation of the Dragon Spine Passage.

Although the Dragon Spine Passage collapsed in a mess due to the civil war among the dwarf clans, the benefits of the Dragon Spine Passage still attracted the attention of the committee.

The mining technology and mining industry of the Clan Kingdom are very developed. These Dragon Spine Passages may be connected to the mines of the former Clan Kingdom.

Moreover, even the ruins of the Silver Gate can bring huge wealth and resources, so what about other dwarf territories?

You know, the dwarf territories of the Clan Kingdom are mainly underground dwarf territories, and there are very few dwarf territories built on the surface like the Silver Gate.

Even if no other dwarven territories were found, as long as one or two mines were found, all the investment could be quickly recovered, or even profitable.

With this idea in mind, the War Committee took some people out of the tight labor force to explore the Dragon Ridge Passage.

And the rewards were really rich.

Although no other dwarven territories were found, the exploration team found many mines.

Although these mines that had not been visited for many years were a bit dangerous, many people in the exploration team died, and the harvest from these mines was not stable.

Some mines lost dozens or hundreds of explorers, but no inventory was found. Some mines were simply explored and a lot of various mineral resources were found.

If the previous Silver Clan came to explore, so many people died, and the result was a little mineral resources, it would definitely be a loss.

However, for the War Committee, it was a good deal. It was just a human life. With the Fountain of Life, the committee could revive and replenish as many explorers as they died.

Moreover, as the explorers gain more experience, the casualties will be improved. The more they explore, the less likely they die, and the more they gain. The better.

Compared with the resources consumed for resurrection, the value of the large amount of mineral resources obtained from these mines is far higher than the consumption of resurrection.

Therefore, the more you die, the less you die, and the higher the cost-effectiveness of exploring the Dragon Ridge Passage.

In fact, although the resources obtained from the Dragon Ridge Passage are not very stable, the resources obtained from it are also one of the important outputs to support various plans of the War Committee.

If it were not for the fact that the more people the better when exploring the Dragon Ridge Passage, and the War Committee was indeed short of manpower, the exploration team would not have only 2,000 people.

The explorers, who were resurrected and prepared to go to the depths of the passage again, followed the roads built by the undead workers in the Dragon's Back Passage and quickly moved towards the depths of the passage.

Thanks to the tireless exploration of the exploration team and the hard-working work of the undead workers, the situation inside the Dragon's Back Passage has been significantly improved.

In addition to roads that facilitate traffic and the flow of materials, the main passages that have been explored have also been cleaned up by undead workers, and some strange lights responsible for lighting have also illuminated the dark passages.

Various markers are also inserted on the branch channels. Which channels are dangerous, which channels are blocked, which channels have been explored, and which channels are still being explored.

Under various markers, the conditions of each branch channel are clear at a glance.

However, the branch passages near the exit of the Dragon's Back Passage have basically been explored early, so this first section of the journey is so complete.

After the group of them walked on the passage for several days and passed Camp No. 3, the rest of the journey was not so complete.

The undead laborers were still working hard to build the road from Camp 3 to Camp 4, not to mention the road from Camp 4 to the target Camp 5. Construction had not started yet and there was no road.

Moreover, compared with the smooth and tidy road ahead, the environment from Camp 3 to Camp 5 becomes worse the deeper you go. The road is filled with all kinds of uneven places, all kinds of rocks, garbage and explorers’ broken bones. Bodies piled up one after another.

In addition, the bright lighting environment deteriorates rapidly as the passage goes deeper. The number of fancy lights arranged in the passage is getting smaller and smaller, and the brightness that can provide light is getting lower and lower.

There are also some dangerous signs inserted crookedly at the entrances of each branch passage, and there are even some signs that have been torn into pieces by unknown creatures and thrown everywhere.

In the darkness, various strange sounds were heard, and occasionally some red eyes could be seen hidden in the darkness, watching the exploration team silently.

Of course, for the explorers, there is nothing to be afraid of. After all, they have seen nothing during their exploration until now. The previous safe passages were also created by their exploration.

Some explorers even took the initiative to look into the red eyes in the darkness, watching the creatures in the darkness quietly leave on their own.

Inside the Dragon's Back Mountains, there are naturally not only dwarves and goblins, but also a variety of cave creatures living in caves.

Thousands of years after the collapse of the kingdom of clans, the once prosperous but now neglected Dragon's Back Passage has become a breeding and expansion territory for these cave creatures.

These cave creatures bring trouble and danger to explorers when they explore.

However, in the final analysis, they are just a group of ordinary cave creatures. They can bully ordinary people or one or two extraordinary people, but they are powerless against the explorers who are all extraordinary and equipped with various strange devices.

In fact, whenever explorers arrive in a new area, the first thing they do is to attack these cave creatures hard, clear the main passage, and kill them until these cave creatures run away when they see them.

Looking at the red eyes that dared to stare at him or even follow them in the dark, a goblin subconsciously rubbed the weapon in his hand with a dangerous look in his eyes.

"For some cave spiders, nothing to look at."

Seeing his actions, the goblin on the side said nonchalantly.

"They can follow them if they want. It also saves us the effort of carrying them. When they get to Camp 5, they can be killed directly and brought back to the camp."

"I just feel a little weird."

He touched the weapon, looked at the cave spider staring at him in the darkness, and said with some hesitation.

"I remember that area No. 5 was just cleaned up more than ten days ago? Didn't we kill all these cave spiders and hide them? Why do they dare to appear in front of us now? It's only been a few days?"

Hearing his words, the goblin on the side also looked at the cave spider in the darkness. Looking at the dense red eyes in the darkness, the goblin nodded and said.

"It's indeed a bit strange, and the number seems to be a bit too much. Could you please give me some instructions?"

"good."

He nodded, raised his right hand, operated the communication device on his right hand a few times, and asked for instructions from his superiors.

As the explorer responsible for the exploration of the Dragon's Back Passage, in order to ensure that exploration information can be uploaded in time, when the war committee, administrative and military systems are somewhat lacking in communication equipment, basically every explorer on the exploration team is equipped with a specialized exploration equipment. communication gadget.

The exploratory communication gadget is a special gadget customized for exploration. Its main features are: small and flexible, easy to wear, able to quickly upload information, automatically fall off, automatically sleep and camouflage, have high defense and provide positioning.

The exploratory communication gadget will not affect the activities of the explorer, and can upload information regularly. Moreover, once the explorer encounters any unavoidable life danger, it can be dismantled and thrown away immediately.

In addition, if the explorer is attacked by a sneak attack and loses all signs of life immediately, the contraption will automatically fall off and camouflage itself into a dormant state to prevent it from being accidentally swallowed by the attacking cave creatures.

It is small, can automatically sleep and camouflage, and has high defense. It is specially designed to avoid damage to strange weapons.

The location provided not only reminds you of dangers, but also facilitates the recovery of strange weapons.

After all, the labor cost of this special exploratory communication machine is not low, and it needs to be made by the machine maker himself, so it is better to recycle it if it can be recycled.

At the beginning of the month, the average subscription was about 380, and after 16 days of daily subscriptions, it finally broke through 400.

If I hadn't made a stupid mistake at the beginning and published 10,000 words in five chapters, causing the average subscription to plummet to around 350, and then I found the problem, maybe I could reach 400 average faster.

If I had published two chapters at the beginning, maybe I would be close to 450 average now.

Damn it. Maybe I could reach 500 average this month!

ε=(ο｀*))) Alas, I have used up all my manuscripts, and the pressure to update is even greater.

Damn it!
