Werewolf wizard

Chapter 421: Ascending the Nicomedia Empire Throne

Half a day later, Su Nan, wearing a laurel crown and surrounded by the citizens of the capital, stood before the palace and became the Emperor of the Nicomedia Empire.

After a two-day coronation ceremony, gold coins bearing Su Nan's image were distributed throughout the empire.

However, what was called an empire was really just a dozen large cities, along with some small cities, towns, and villages.

In the small and laughable palace of Nicomedia, Su Nan felt the changes in his magic power. When he became the Emperor of the Nicomedia Empire, the magic tide in the Asia Minor region did indeed change.

A double helix special magic structure, similar to that of the Werewolf Plane, was born here.

However, unlike the Werewolf Plane, even with the appearance of a special double helix magic structure, it could not greatly affect the magic tide that was deeply integrated with the Dark Force.

Su Nan only possessed a slight amount of power to manipulate the magic tide of Asia Minor.

His control over the magic tide of Asia Minor was squeezed to the limit by the Dark Force. Every time he tried to influence the magic tide, he would be rejected by the Dark Force.

Inside the palace, Su Nan listened to the nobles and ministers reporting the situation, while secretly studying the problem of the magic tide.

Because he was still cursed, Su Nan did not immediately go to Storm Fortress to activate all the backup plans there and seize most of the territory of the Storm Kingdom.

The ministers below spoke one after another, expressing their expectations for the future of the empire.

David Thompson said to Su Nan: "Your Majesty, the kings and archbishops of the surrounding countries have sent gifts upon hearing that you have become the new emperor."

Nicomedia had already been reduced to a third-rate country. Coupled with the country's inherent political instability and frequent changes of emperors, the various countries did not pay much attention when they heard that Nicomedia had a new emperor.

They simply sent a few envoys over to deal with it perfunctorily.

David Thompson said: "Your Majesty, among the envoys who came this time, there is actually an envoy from the Storm Kingdom to congratulate you."

"In addition, the most important thing is that the envoys are from the Mamluk Sultanate, our neighboring country, and the Sultanate of the Turks, as well as envoys from two other autocratic countries ruled by god-man families."

David said: "Most solemnly, for some reason, the heir of the Trebizond Despotate, Prince Antony Komnenos, who has always been the most hostile to the empire, actually went to your capital to present gifts…"

Su Nan sat on the throne, his mind already wandering. The key was that Su Nan was particularly good at acting. He stared with his eyes wide open, saying nothing, pretending to be listening attentively, waiting for the courtiers below to discuss freely, comprehensively listening to opinions, with a profound and unpredictable attitude.

Anyway, Warwick and Mary, as well as Black Wheat, were also standing beside him, listening to the opinions of the ministers of this country. They would handle these chores for him.

At that time, Su Nan was already wholeheartedly studying the special magic structure of the Asia Minor region.

'I guess the Energy World has calculated it well.'

Su Nan began to think, when David mentioned the history of the Trebizond Despotate's long-term competition with the Nicomedia Empire for legitimacy, about why the situation here was different from that of the Werewolf Empire plane.

‘They made the Dark Force of the Energy World deeply integrated with the magic tide of the Prime Material Plane.’

‘In this way, the laws of the wizards are unlikely to appear.’

‘Moreover, the Energy World can more easily tamper with the rules of the Prime Material Plane, so that the creatures of the Energy World, unlike those of two thousand years ago, can directly enter the Prime Material Plane.’

Su Nan thought: ‘But if that's the case, maybe I can try…'

Su Nan, on the throne, opened a bottle of Sorcerer's Blood, wrapped the energy of the potion around his magic power, and then contacted the magic tide of most of the Asia Minor region.

This time, there was still a detection and judgment of his power by the Dark Force. When it discovered the layer of Sorcerer's power covering his magic power, it actually no longer rejected him, allowing him to control the magic tide of Asia Minor and form his own wizard laws.

Su Nan looked at his right hand. During the battle, all the magic rings on his right hand had shattered.

Other magic rings could be recast, but only the Arcane Intuition Ring required the Komnenos bloodline, and since he didn't have it on hand, it couldn't be recast.

Without Arcane Intuition, his normal combat power would decrease by at least 10%.

After all, that ring had given him a lot of help in many crises.

At the same time, when he could regain control of the magic tide in the Asia Minor region, a black gold law ring automatically appeared on his middle finger.

The ring's surface was in the shape of a law code.

"It seems to be a success." Su Nan looked at the law code on his hand. This was a symbol of his magic power, combined with the laws of the Nicomedia Empire, and the power of the magic tide in the Asia Minor region.

“But even so, my influence on the magic tide in Asia Minor is actually only 1%…”

“My influence on the magic tide of the Werewolf Empire has increased from the initial 10% to 60%…”

“Even if the Nicomedia Empire is still too weak, the biggest problem is still with the Dark Force.”

Su Nan had a whim and said to the AI: ‘AI, assuming I seize the power of a high-level energy lord, such as the Ruthless Benevolent Dharma, can my control over the Asia Minor magic tide increase?’

[Yes, it is predicted to increase to at least 3%. But how to combine it is a difficult problem, and it is not only the Dark Force that interferes with your magic, but also the particularity of the Prime Material Plane itself.]

[A Prime Material Plane with powerful world power cannot be like a plane with weak world power like the Werewolf Plane, where a certain individual wizard controls more than 5% of a region's magic tide.]

[5% is an upper limit.]

[Although in the Prime Material Plane, 5% is already a very exaggerated figure.]

Su Nan seemed to hear someone calling him. He diverted some of his energy and shifted his gaze from the ring on his right hand, only to see David Thompson, an old noble of the city of Nicomedia, seemingly calling him.

David Thompson looked at Mary and Warwick in confusion.

He said to Su Nan: "Your Majesty, the Pope's adopted son and the Prince of Trebizond cannot be received by ordinary envoys. Do you want to meet them?"

Mary coughed softly, walked to Su Nan's side, and whispered: "Your Majesty, there are things that need you to decide. Stop studying…"

Su Nan then came back to his senses and immediately made a judgment. Wasn't Trebizond the country of the Komnenos? Then their prince must also be a Komnenos, and a pure-blooded Komnenos at that.

“I can personally meet the Prince of Trebizond.”

“Warwick, you go meet the Pope's adopted son. The Pope probably doesn't have anything to say to me anyway. The Lord of Law and the god he believes in are also enemies.”

But Su Nan didn't care about offending the Pope of the Papal State.

First, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and there is quite a distance between the two.

The second is that the Papal State is actually the most targeted by the Energy World. Don't look at him fighting to the death with the Energy World in Nicomedia and the Storm Kingdom.

The Energy World is launching an invasion against the entire world.

In other regions, it can only be said that the situation will be worse!
