The unsuspecting Mind Flayer Empire was naturally in bad luck.
The extremely destructive and terrible impact on the environment, the Phaelim Demon Sunflower, possesses the ability that most frightens and frightens the Mind Flayer Empire.
"The spell fails!"
While not all spells work, just a few are enough to plunge the mind flayer empire into chaos.
The reason is simple. The mind flayers inevitably use a wide range of spells to control slave warriors, and they are continuously maintained and permanently effective.
Even if the phaerimms don't attack, the impact of their presence alone will cause most of the mind flayer empire's slave army to lose control.
As a result, the slave army, which was still very calm on the front foot, directly launched a rebellion on the back foot.
The pursuit of freedom and revenge is the instinct of all intelligent creatures.
More than 1/10 of the slave warriors were affected, and even many mind flayers were killed in the sudden chaos.
There is no control ability brought by mind spells.
Even if these mind flayers also possess other mind spells and powerful combat capabilities, they are nothing more than thinking beasts.
Mind flayers who like to enslave intelligent creatures inevitably die at the hands of the slaves they control.
The rulers of the Mind Flayer Empire, who were just about to summon more troops to cause trouble for the Gulf Territory, heard the news.
The phaerinns are already wreaking havoc in the heart of the mind flayer empire.
They had no idea that the underground world that had been silent for thousands of years would still hide such terrible dangers.
It happened that at this time, this situation was learned by the exploration team of the Gulf Territory.
They immediately reported this information to the Gulf Territory.
After learning about this situation, Sera raised her eyebrows happily and decisively put forward a number of combat plans.
War is not an end, but a means to achieve an end.
The real idea of the Gulf Territory is to let the Mind Flayer Empire continue to fight Felin Demon Kui to death.
They can reap the benefits, learn about the strength and information of both sides, and at the same time recruit a large number of Mind Flayer Empire slaves.
After accepting the first few batches of slaves from the Mind Flayer Empire, the Gulf Territory found that these slave warriors and intelligent creatures were very "obedient".
As long as those who stutter are given a certain degree of freedom, they can be arranged to do whatever they want.
Although their heads turn slowly, their learning and growth speeds are average, and they even have little potential left.
However, they are very obedient and never cause any trouble. Whatever tasks and arrangements they have, they are carried out without compromise at all.
This alone is enough to make the big guys in the Gulf Territory like him.
Many Gulf Territory staff even suggested that such good prepared Territory citizens should not be allowed to suffer under the slavery of the Mind Flayer, and efforts should be made to liberate them.
Many workers in the Gulf Territory are very excited about these ideas.
However, considering that too much territory has been occupied so far, it needs to be digested slowly.
Therefore, we can only prepare secretly and wait until the time and conditions are ripe before taking action.
Who knows, the Felin Magic Sunflower suddenly appeared.
The chaos in the Mind Flayer Empire naturally gave them an opportunity.
Sera reported the situation to Matthew and waited until Matthew agreed to take action.
"However, the actions must be as covert and low-key as possible to avoid causing major movements from the Mind Flayer Empire."
Sera very much agrees with the Lord's thoughts, and she understands it very well.
Only power that is truly in your hands and can be commanded like an arm to continuously complete "tasks" can be considered effective power.
Otherwise, the ever-expanding and powerful force itself will bring about constant internal friction.
Sera has studied the complexity and diversity of this for a long time.
It wasn't until the Gulf Territory introduced the method of becoming a god that she suddenly woke up.
"Instead of worrying about this, it is better to promote the development of the territory faster and enjoy more benefits."
"If you are lucky enough to take that step, you will have plenty of time to think about it."
The large forces did not move out, but instead shrank back to the material plane.
However, there were quite a number of smart and capable combatants, working with the gray elves and gray dwarves to start the attack.
The gray dwarves want to regain their territory and fortress, as well as the mining areas that allow them to gain a better foothold, and are willing to attract firepower for the Gulf Territory.
The Gulf Territory assisted their operations, taking advantage of the fact that the mind flayers needed to take care of many situations, and dug into their homes to steal their homes.
When the Mind Flayer Empire didn't know, they were bolder.
After the Mind Flayer Empire found out, they became more unrestrained.
The main thing is one thing, so I just did it anyway, and I will dare to do it next time.
It just so happens that the style of the Gulf Territory is just right to restrain the mind flayers who are afraid of death.
The mind flayers who are greedy for life and fear death will always suspect that the Gulf Territory is fishing and set up an ambush.
As for the slave warriors and controlled slaves taken away by the Gulf Tie, they didn't take it too seriously.
There are a lot of slaves in the underground world, and they will sprout in a steady stream in just a short nap.
This was indeed the case in the past. The areas where most slave warriors lived were underground world spaces with relatively scarce resources or very dangerous places.
They work hard to survive, do their best to reproduce, and don't want to disappear.
But he was completely unable to resist the Mind Flayer, and could only be harvested by it again and again.
This kind of reincarnation and suffering has lasted for thousands of years.
Originally, it would continue like this.
Until batch after batch of Gulf leaders appeared in the dark and deep underground world.
When they first came into contact with these intelligent creatures, they chose the simplest and most direct method.
In front of them, he killed the mind flayer they considered a nightmare.
The people of the Gulf easily obtained the "right to rule", but unexpectedly gave them food.
So, the intelligent creatures that had eaten and drank simply "leaved" with the Gulf leader.
Can't be beaten, can't escape, can be fed.
The intelligent creatures who had no wisdom inheritance but still knew how to think simply chose a "new boss".
Their thoughts are simple and simple. Even if they can never go back, and they may die tomorrow, at least they will have enough to eat...
One tribe after another, intelligent creatures were easily taken away by the Gulf Leaders.
Even because they lead people too efficiently and too quickly.
Sera had to hurry up and arrange more large-scale teleportation arrays and transportation routes.
The Mind Flayer Empire, unaware of the actions of the Gulf Territory, had to go on the defensive in the face of the threat of the gray dwarves and Gulf Territory war forces advancing.
Once they defended, they gave up even more territory.
Therefore, with a "tacit understanding" between both parties, the "Liberation Team" sent by the Gulf Leaders went deep into all parts of the Mind Flayer Empire.
In just half a month, more than 1.3 million intelligent creatures were liberated by the Gulf Territory.
What's even more interesting is these intelligent creatures who live a miserable life under the control of the mind flayers. Suddenly they discovered all kinds of garbage and waste that they usually look down on.
It has become a treasure that allows them to eat meat every meal and enjoy every meal.
The various materials they live or hunt and collect are all magic items of excellent quality.
The Gulf Territory only charges a part of the processing fees, which makes these intelligent creatures have a lot of wealth.
They blend into the bay collar more easily and comfortably.
Of course, the "wealth" brought by these intelligent creatures also makes the operators in the Gulf Territory very happy.
The wealth of intelligent creatures naturally belongs to themselves.
But everyone discovered resource points along the way, and found various minerals and rare metal veins.
It is enough for them to obtain an even more amazing harvest than the already generous mission rewards.
Some of the Gulf leadership teams with more active minds still "look down upon" the little gains they have discovered.
He decisively applied for and purchased unmanned and fully automatic mining equipment, and brought a group of professional partners with him to secretly head to the target area.
They quietly sent these small pieces of equipment to the resource points and got busy directly in the mines and mineral veins.
These unmanned automatic mining equipment, except for the "disadvantage" of costing up to 1 million gold coins, basically have all advantages.
It makes little noise and is completely silent, making it almost undetectable.
This is very important. No one would want the resource points they discover to be dug up secretly by their peers, or picked up ready-made by the Mind Flayer.
The speed is fast, the output is high, and the return on investment is fast.
As long as it is a magic mine, even if it is a rudimentary one, it will only take three months to recover the investment.
Low failure rate, self-maintenance, continuous working life of more than 5 years.
Even if you dig out one or two small mineral veins and don't make much money, you can quickly change sites and dig new mines in a timely manner.
Of course, some adventurers who discover large mineral veins will also be "not satisfied" with its efficiency.
In response to their special needs, the research institute in the Gulf Territory is happy to develop corresponding "new products" for them.
At the same time, news of the development of the underground world in the Gulf Territory quickly spread throughout the northern continent.
Various rewards and exciting examples increasingly attract more adventurers to join.
Even many lords and nobles have completely given up other ideas and thoughts.
They prepared more manpower and talents for the teams and teams that originally took risks in the Gulf Territory.
Some small lords and nobles who were keen on adventure or wanted to go further even went into battle in person and came to the Gulf Territory to participate in the adventure.
As the Gulf Territory demonstrated its strength again and again, it promoted and announced through various means.
The Gulf Territory's powerful, fair and friendly image has been well-known throughout the northern continent.
In particular, the Gulf Territory is different from the Cole Elf Kingdom and other large forces.
Not only does the Gulf Territory not refuse the arrival of adventurers and other personnel, it is even willing to provide a certain degree of supplies and rewards to those who arrive.
Not to mention the various knowledge and training channels provided by the Gulf Territory, which has attracted more and more adventurers and professionals.
In this case, the Gulf Territory attracted more manpower and talents.
There are also more and more adventurers and people joining the Gulf Territory in various ways.
Living in troubled times, if you really have to choose a place to settle down, then choose the side that can fight the best!
In the demiplane of Catachan, Matthew was practicing various legendary spells after receiving news from the Mind Flayer Empire.
He silently looked at the many information about Felin Mokui, and finally suppressed the idea of finding out and focused on improving his own strength.
He and the Gulf Territory did not have as much capital as the Cole Elves and the Elf Gods.
Therefore, he must be more careful and cautious, and at the same time continue to work hard after choosing the right direction.
In addition to working hard to improve his strength, Matthew also needs to invest the extra power of destiny into another crucial research.
Imitation of Mythra's core!
Why not just create the core of Mythra?
Although its manufacturing process is very difficult and requires huge amounts of resources, there is also a huge gap in rare metals such as Thorium, which is extremely rare in output but accounts for a very large proportion.
However, the Gulf Territory now has a huge territory comparable to the principality, as well as a monthly trade capacity of more than 3 billion gold coins, as well as a steady stream of resources produced and collected from various places.
Matthew is confident that it will take more than ten years to complete the breakthrough in the production process of Mythra's core.
However, Matthew was unwilling to do this.
The reason is the nearly unlimited energy supply of the Mythra Core!
That’s right!
I have personally touched it, analyzed it, understood its principles, and installed and used it.
Matthew was quite wary of the extremely powerful energy supplier, the Mythra Core.
The principle of Mythra's core is to build a connection with the energy supply deep in the magic network, and continuously extract energy from it.
To be precise, the core of Mythra plays more of a connecting role rather than a source of energy generation.
Under normal circumstances, as long as the deep magic network does not have devastating effects or fluctuations, Mythra's core can operate healthily and stably.
However, what is about to happen is extraordinary "destruction"!
Before the arrival of the elemental tide, Matthew tried to communicate with the goddess of magic to discuss the next development of both parties.
After all, Matthew's previous "cooperation" with the Magic Goddess was relatively pleasant.
Before the Gulf Territory had its own gods, it was always better to build a relatively good friendly relationship than to be hostile.
At least the conditions for paying "protection fees" to apply for force support are better than losing the battle.
Matthew also didn’t want the relatively easy-to-talk magic goddess to perish.
The loss of its power will inevitably lead to an increase in the strength of other gods.
And once the goddess of magic falls, the terrifying shock caused will inevitably affect the situation of the deep magic network.
In this way, on the day known as "The Day of Destruction of the Netheril Empire", there will be a terrifying scene of the floating city falling from the sky.
The ensuing energy catharsis and riots completely destroyed most of the Netheril Empire's territories.
Regardless of other considerations, just to save more people in Netheril requires the Gulf Territory to continue to increase its development efforts.
Matthew also needs to have a core device that can replace Mythra's core and provide sufficient energy source for the floating city.
Compared to transmitting energy directly from the magic network, Matthew is more accustomed to the activation and birth of energy, and he has everything in his own hands.
Compared to other energy cores, Matthew, who viewed the floating fortress more as a weapon, preferred strange creations like elemental fusion engines.
Just the word "fusion" is enough for Matthew to invest a lot of energy.
Matthew, who has conducted in-depth research, naturally understands the basic principles and structure of the elemental fusion engine.
The "fusion" process uses magic to achieve the effect, rather than releasing the power within the fusion of matter!
Because of this, Matthew, who realized that there was great room for improvement and potential, was ready to study this aspect.
If it can be successful, it can also achieve the effect of replacing Mythra's core.
Then, Matthew wanted to present all the giant mechanical creations that existed only in his imagination before he traveled through time.
