I became the ancestor of the blood clan

We have a huge mithril vein, and there will definitely be more extraordinary equipment in the future. "

"My lord, the dwarves will not disappoint you."

Varun held his head up confidently. He couldn't do anything else. No one could forge equipment better than a dwarf.

Li De nodded, finally finished explaining.

Turning his head to look at the little Isa beside him who looked up at him adoringly, he showed a doting smile.

"Come on, Isa, we're back to Green City."

With Harrison at the city hall, there is nothing to explain.

The Scarlet Mage Tower seems to be stable now, but due to changes in the external environment, it is already a little dangerous, and he must solve these problems.

As the most important source of funds for Daybreak City, the Scarlet Mage Tower cannot be lost.

The undead who established the empire in the north, the death cemetery that transformed the high-level undead, and the 19th-level archmage Spark who was severely injured, the coasts of more than ten port cities invaded by the murloc empire, and the scarlet mage tower with limited magic raw materials...

When Li De sat behind Castro and flew out of Daybreak City, he was keenly aware that the situation he had to face when he returned to Green City this time would be very different from the past.

Chapter 283 Scarlet Mage Tower, are you messing around again? (7600 words)

From last year's winter month to this year's planting season.

Green City fell into an inexplicably dignified atmosphere.

God, that has changed.

Orcs, undead, and even the murloc empire are putting pressure on the southern provinces.

There were people coming and going on the streets of Green City, but most of the pedestrians walked in a hurry and their expressions were very solemn. Even the wandering hawks who used to solicit customers at the corner of the street subconsciously lowered their volume at this time.

The mercenaries in blood-stained and mottled armor were murderous, and the trophies in their hands were no longer the corpses or furs of monsters, but skulls flashing with the fire of their souls.

Several priests of the Temple of Life, wearing pure white priest robes, with sacred and loving expressions, distributed hundreds of times diluted holy water to the surrounding crowd along the bluestone streets with dark green moss growing in the gaps on both sides.

Although the holy water contained in cheap glass bottles lost its function of healing injuries and diseases because it was too diluted, it could still barely protect against the invasion of low-level negative energies.

The pace of the well-organized patrol team changed from the previous domineering approach, and now they are all carefully patrolling the city with vigilant expressions.

The number of beggars on the street has also decreased by half at this time, and even the civilians who come and go are much sparser.

The difficult environment made the small businessmen on both sides of the street with open semicircular shop doors frowning, watching the increasingly abnormal scene on the street with worry.

It is not the big nobles and those in power who are most affected by each change in the pattern, but these low-level civilians with small assets.

In the waves, no small fishing boat can safely avoid the storm attack.

"I heard that although the undead in the north have retreated, the cemetery of death is still there. I guess it must have been left here on purpose by those damned undead!"

"That's right, that's what the undead left on purpose. They can send troops in at any time for the next invasion in the future."

"Hey... Archmage Spark was seriously injured by the undead. Even such a powerful mage can't handle it. I'm afraid that we will be attacked more severely if we participate in the attack on the death cemetery this time. It is impossible to directly destroy the death cemetery..."

"Hehe, what can we do?? This is a task that the major guilds forcefully execute. We have already signed a treaty before joining the guild. When we encounter a major crisis, we must stand with the guild.

You are the Thieves Guild, it's okay, if you can't beat it, you can still leave from the shadows, our Warrior Guild is afraid that we will take our lives to send it inside. "

"Hmph, those damn mages! If it wasn't for the Mage Association's proposal to gather the power of all guilds to clear that weird death cemetery, would we have worked so hard?"

"No way, who made the lives of those mage masters more precious than ours..."

"..."

Before stepping into the Scarlet Mage Tower, Li De, who had just returned to Dawn City, heard the indignant conversation of two mercenaries on the mysterious street belonging to the Scarlet Mage Tower.

A bit of thought appeared in Li De's eyes. He didn't expect the situation in Green City to change so quickly, and even the power of the guild was mobilized.

In Green City, the most powerful guild is undoubtedly the Mage Association. Almost all the high-ranking mage lords are the nobles of Green City. Their influence spreads across various industries. He is the president of the Masters Association.

Several other guilds that are not weak control most of the professionals in Green City, the mercenary guild that mainly accepts and issues missions, the adventurer guild that mainly explores ancient ruins, and various other guilds such as the Thief Guild and the Warrior Guild. A guild of professionals.

These grand guilds are the most powerful force in Green City. As for the nearly 6 soldiers controlled by the city lord, they are not impressive under this force.

"Betty, has our Scarlet Mage Tower been recruited?"

Li De turned his head to look at the heroic Valkyrie beside him and asked

"No," Betty shook her head, "The magic scroll produced by the Scarlet Mage Tower is an important material to resist the northern undead, and we have not been recruited."

After finishing speaking, the tone paused slightly, "But in exchange, the magic scrolls we have produced so far cannot be sold to any other forces, and all the scrolls will be purchased by the major guilds."

Li De nodded knowingly. At this critical moment, the nobles in Green City must try their best to mobilize all resources and strength.

It's not surprising that the Scarlet Mage Tower is restricted, and it doesn't matter who they sell it to.

But the problem now is that those remaining undead are probably more troublesome than imagined.

"Lord Li De..."

Before stepping into the door of the Scarlet Mage Tower, a voice full of joy sounded from the door.

Wearing a blue mage's robe, with waist-length wavy hair slightly wavy at the back of his head, the delicate figure with sapphire-like eyes gleaming with brilliance ran up to Li De with a face full of excitement.

Looking at the girl who had obviously lost a lot of weight in front of him, Li De's eyes flashed a bit of tenderness.

He reached out and rubbed the girl's head.

"Wina, long time no see..."

After seeing Li De, Wei Na's heart overflowed with joy, she turned her head obediently, and let Li De caress that slightly curly long golden hair.

"That's right, Lord Li De, you went out before the cold winter month last year, and it has been half a year now..."

"Half a year," Li De said emotionally, "It really passed in the blink of an eye, let's go in and talk."

Wei Na quickly moved away, and then saw little Isa and Betty, and quickly greeted the two girls.

Li De couldn't help being in a good mood looking at the three pretty figures with swings.

A cute little disciple, a well-behaved maid, and a wild Valkyrie, this match is perfect.

Step into the Scarlet Mage Tower. After half a year of construction, the Scarlet Mage Tower is in much better condition than the previous construction site, but it is still a bit messy. Many trenches that have been dug have not been filled with soil.

Li De felt a headache when he saw this scene.

This ancient alchemy formation is almost becoming his heart disease.

After investing so much, the construction has not seen results for more than a year. If Spark hadn't been building it himself, he really wanted to stop this gold-throwing behemoth.

If the funds invested are replaced by alchemy bombs, it can destroy 10,000+ troops.

But when he thought of Sparkle De, he frowned a little. He didn't know what happened to his cheap teacher, and he had to visit him later.

After entering the Mage Tower, Li De didn't stay on the first floor, but went directly to the study on the third floor where he was used to working.

The towering oak bookshelves are close together, and one after another precious books cover the bookshelves.

Although I haven't been back for half a year, there is still no trace of dust here.

Li De nodded in satisfaction, and naturally sat on the armchair behind the only desk in the study after entering the room.

"Vina, report on the situation of the Scarlet Mage Tower during this period, starting with the number of personnel."

He's been away for too long, so long that he's already a little unclear about his family background.

He must know everything.

As the helmsman, he does not need to operate the sails himself, but he needs to know how many sailors, sails, and food his ship has.

When Wei Na talked about the business, her expression gradually became solemn, and she began to enter the demeanor of the manager of the Scarlet Mage Tower who caused waves in Green City and even the southern province.

Wei Na is now a well-deserved new star in the business world of Green City, and it is still the brightest moment.

She was even called the Merchant Queen by a small number of nobles who had dealings with her.

"Lord Li De, our development has not stagnated during the six months since you left.

Currently, the Scarlet Mage Tower has 120 official mages, including 5 intermediate mages who have reached level 15.

There are 650 master apprentices.

护卫队200人，5~9级180人，20人等级达到10级，这一批护卫是贝蒂在血腥角斗场花钱买下来的。”

With 120 official mages and 650 mage apprentices, the number of mages currently in the Scarlet Mage Tower has reached 770.

This is an exaggerated figure.

Before the winter moon of the year before last, the Scarlet Mage Tower didn't even have official mages, only 22 mage apprentices. Now it has grown into a large force with as many as seven or eight hundred mages in less than two years.

Although the level of these apprentices is generally not high at present, it is not too difficult to spend a certain amount of resources to cultivate a group of high-level mages when the Scarlet Mage Tower's earning power is so exaggerated.

"Is the guard formed separately or under the unified management of the Scarlet Mage Tower?" But it was the guard that aroused Li De's interest.

Wena turned her head and glanced at Betty when she heard the words, the latter shrugged indifferently.

"Currently, Betty is fully in charge of the guard team. It will provide protection when our caravan goes out to purchase important supplies, or the guard team will also support when there are mages who need protection."

Li De nodded. There is no doubt that the Mage is powerful, but the Scarlet Mage Tower is obviously not as terrifying as the White Tower, so the formation of this guard team is not bad, at least it can prevent the scarlet Mage Tower from being darkened before it is fully developed. The enemies of the earth come from Yin.

Although it's not nice to say that the mage tower raised a team of fighters, he has always been pragmatic.

Turning his head to look at Betty, who was a little awkward at this time, Li De smiled at the Valkyrie.

"In the future, the size of the guard team will expand to 500 people. If you need financial support, you can directly apply to Wei Na.

Betty, this escort team is under your jurisdiction, and you can buy a separate area near the Scarlet Mage Tower as a resident in the future.

My only request is that you train this escort to be strong enough. "

Hearing Li De's unexpected words, Betty's clear-cut face like that of a half-race showed great surprise.

"No problem, I will train this army with the training method of training the strongest northern soldiers."

Li De smiled slightly. The Valkyrie of the Northland has a powerful existence whose fighting skills have reached the legendary level. Simply placing it as a mascot in the Scarlet Mage Tower is a bit of a waste of resources.

Since the other party has this heart, he might as well support it.

Only when the strength in his hands is strong enough will he be confident.

"Continue to the next item."

"Yes,

The second item is the revenue of the Scarlet Mage Tower. Our revenue is divided into three categories.

The first category is the magic factory. At present, the magic factory produces 1000 magic scrolls per day, and the monthly output is about 3. The current price of magic scrolls is 9 gold pokes, deducting the cost of 3 gold pokes , each profit is 6 gold pukes, and the total profit per month is about 18.

The second item, the mysterious street, we used the attraction of magic scrolls to build a street selling various weapons and magic scrolls outside the Scarlet Mage Tower. Because of the shopping points and membership system, the mysterious street is currently the most prosperous in Green City A gathering place for professionals.

Mystery Street can contribute about 3 Kimpuk profits to us every month.

The third item is the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

After two years of rapid expansion, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce has now become a large Chamber of Commerce in Green City relying on the protection of the Scarlet Mage Tower and its extensive contacts.

Grain, cotton, salt, and cloth are all involved in these industries. Although the share is far less than that of the nobles in Green City, the monthly profit has reached [-] gold pukes, and the follow-up development potential is still great. big. "

Adding up several projects, the monthly income of Scarlet Mage Tower reaches 22 Kimpuk.

Absolutely twenty or so small goals a month.

But Li De shook his head, not much touched by this.

The scale of Daybreak City is getting bigger and bigger, and the places where money is spent are also increasing day by day. Although the Scarlet Mage Tower earns fast, it can't stand him spending it faster.

22 Kimpuks are not enough to make [-] alchemy bombs.

Thinking of this, Li De smiled wryly.

You earn more and more money, but why do you always feel poor?

"Has the fur we traded back from the dwarf hills arrived? How long will it take to digest it?"

When Wei Na heard Li De's question, her beautiful blue eyes pondered for a while, and then said slowly.

"This batch of Warcraft fur supplements our nearly exhausted inventory, but the magic factory has limited productivity, and it will take at least three months to digest it all."

Li De frowned, the digestion speed was a bit slow.

A few days ago, he sent the second-generation blood descendants and dead bones to open up new trade routes in the low mountains and hills, and exchanged armor with other centaur tribes for monster furs. After a week of trading, Dawn City earned at least a million dollars. Kimpuk's Warcraft fur.

Of course, this earning premise refers to the value of the Scarlet Mage Tower made into magic scrolls and sold.
