Wizard Lords: Building an Empire starts from the panel

Ten minutes later, Garrieux hurried to this hidden conference room.

Seeing several famous figures in the north sitting in the conference room, Gallie couldn't help but become nervous.

"Garyeu, I heard you say before that this counterweight trebuchet was tested on your Green County battlefield. I want to know, is it possible that the upper echelons of the Orc Empire know about this thing?"

‘Hiss~ This is a proposition! ’ Garrieux felt his scalp numb.

Seeing the other party's hesitation, Marquis Ashan laughed and said: "It's okay, don't be nervous, just lay out the situation at that time and analyze it objectively."

Gallieu obviously still had a lot of concerns, so he thought for a moment, organized his words, and said:

"Lord Marquis, this counterweight trebuchet has only been used in one baron's castle. At that time, the strongest orc on the side was just a fifth-level werewolf, and he was killed in the war.

In addition, the trebuchet installed in the baron's castle has limited power and is not much higher than the traditional trebuchet. With the tribal system of the Orc Empire, it may take a long time for news of the counterweighted trebuchet to reach the top brass of the Orc Empire. "

Gallieu and the Norton family behind him did not want to take additional risks, so he kept his words ambiguous.

In fact, the information about the counterweighted trebuchet did not reach the top brass of the Orc Empire at all, and even the several tribes participating in the war did not pay much attention to it.

"If you put it that way, things will be easier to handle. I estimate that with the virtues of a backward tribal alliance like the Orc Empire, it is very likely that the news of the counterweighted trebuchet will be kept secret for a year and a half."

"Everyone, I have a bold idea. Although it will bear certain risks, once it succeeds, we can easily break the situation."

Half an hour later, the secret meeting finally ended. Astonishment was still written on Gallieu's face when he walked out of the conference room.

"Are all the ideas of the kingdom's famous generals so wild and unrestrained? It's a pity that all the attendees were silenced by the Marquis, and I can't spread the news back to my family."

Gallieu shook his head and didn't think much about it. He simply replied to his family with a message that "everything goes well." Then he took several craftsmen from the Norton family to cooperate with Master Yelena to make a giant counterweight trebuchet.

Soon after, two groups of griffin knights soared into the sky with the secret message from Marquis Ashan and flew towards two key nodes in the north.

Snow Dragon Fortress also became busy, and the surrounding wizards and craftsmen were quickly transferred here.

While the Yulong Fortress was busy preparing for war, Master Li Wei, who was far away in the Black Mountain Territory, was not idle either.

Although the first monkey version of the blast furnace has not yet dried, and Master Li Wei's iron-making business has temporarily come to a standstill, the overall progress of the territory's construction work is still soaring.

Territory construction includes not only infrastructure construction, but also talent training and recruitment.

"Lord Levi, the contracts of the more than one hundred wizard apprentices have been signed. What do you think should be done next?"

"Let them familiarize themselves with the meditation method first. The construction of the workshop in Fort Monterey is progressing too slowly. Please tell the people below to hurry up!"

"Yes, my lord."

The number of spellcasters in Monterey Castle suddenly doubled several times, which was attributed to the inheritance of the Great Sage of the Void.

The small half of the inheritance of the Great Sage of the Void that Li Wei exchanged for a mid-level treasure order is simply a priceless treasure.

I don’t know how much better the witchcraft inheritance in the main plane is than in the third-level plane like Hisoka!

For example, in this small half of the inheritance of the Great Sage of the Void, in terms of talent testing for spell casters, it is no exaggeration to say that he is tens of thousands of years ahead of Hisoka.

In the Hisoka plane, the cost of a talent test is about 3 to 5 gold coins, and the tester usually has to pay 6 to 10 gold coins as a reward.

So the question becomes, who among the common people is willing to use their entire family’s income to bet on a 3D lottery?

In contrast, the martial arts paths of warriors, knights, etc. who practice fighting spirit are simply too friendly to civilians.

A crappy general fighting qi technique is enough for early enlightenment. If you are talented, you can also choose to add some money to get a better technique.

Taking the original Black Mountain Territory as an example, the entire Black Mountain Territory has a population of 15, and almost people have more or less practiced Dou Qi. However, there are only spellcasters, including Li Wei, of the third level and above. Li Wei is the only one.

There are only a few people with spell caster talents, and the entrance talent test almost excludes most civilians, which results in a pitifully small number of spell casters in the Hisoka plane.

However, the caster talent detection method recorded in the inheritance of the Great Sage of the Void directly breaks this high detection cost.

Li Wei repeatedly calculated this incredible cost price, and finally came to the result - it really only costs 10 Silver Eagles. Yes, one gold coin is exchanged for 30 silver eagles. The cost of this test is simply too high!

So Mr. Li Wei, who had just made a war fortune, immediately decided to organize spellcasting talent tests for children and teenagers of school age throughout the territory.

So it cost no more than a thousand gold coins, and Master Li Wei got about a hundred wizard apprentices.

But Mr. Li Wei doesn't just open charity halls and do good deeds. These one hundred wizard apprentices have signed a 30-year contract with Li Wei, and they will become high-level workers under Li Wei from now on.

As for how to let this group of wizard apprentices create residual value for Levi?

This is also thanks to the inheritance of the Great Sage of the Void.

That inheritance includes a mainstream alchemy and weapon enchantment process from the main plane, the plane of Faerûn.

The extraordinary equipment production system in the Faerun plane is very different from that in the Hisoka plane. They will break down the process of making extraordinary equipment into many small and simple steps.

Li Wei immediately thought of the assembly line process! The "workers" on this type of assembly line only need to be spell casters, including first- and second-level spell casters who have not yet crossed the threshold of transcendence.

The Hisoka plane where Levi is currently located is far behind in this respect. Extraordinary equipment and props can only be made by the hands of third-level casters and above, and the production speed is impressive.

As a result, the market gap for extraordinary equipment, especially basic extraordinary equipment, is astonishingly large.

Taking the Kingdom of Fontaine as an example, there are less than 800 wizards above the third level in the entire kingdom, and less than 500 priests above the third level. But how many knights, warriors and other martial arts cultivators are there at level three or above?

The answer is at least one hundred thousand.

Among these third-level wizards and priests, no more than 20% can make extraordinary equipment or extraordinary props. This has caused extraordinary equipment and extraordinary props to be in short supply and prices to be inflated.

The situation for high-level extraordinary equipment is slightly better, mainly because the ratio of high-level spellcasters to martial arts cultivators is not that exaggerated.

Now that Levi was looking at such a large market, his saliva was almost drooling. With a golden mountain in front of you, of course you have to dig it!
