I Ascend To the Throne of God with Arcane Magic Chapter 256

Chapter 256 West Castle under construction

Locher Mountains, West Valley.

The Luoxue Mountains are lonely in winter, and most of the beasts and other creatures in the mountains are nowhere to be seen. Even the magical beasts are not willing to wander around at will.

On the black mountains, there is only a hint of dark green left in the snow-covered pine forest. Nearly one meter of snow has accumulated on the mountains. White has almost become the only color in this world.

West Ridge is a long and narrow mountain ridge in the mansion of the Rocher Mountains. The Rocher Mountains are a large mountain range that straddles the Kingdom of Fes and the Kingdom of Dillon. It is almost impossible for traveling merchants between the two countries to bypass the Rocher Mountains and go to the other side. , so the only option is to cross the mountains.

As the passage to the east of the Luoxue Mountains, the West Valley has some twists and turns, but it is the most convenient and gentle passage that can bypass the most steep main peak of the Luoxue Mountains. Half of the traveling merchants between the two countries choose to pass this route. Hurry up the valley and climb a few hills to cross the Luoxue Mountains.

Generally speaking, even traveling merchants will not choose to cross the Luoxue Mountains in winter. Regardless of the severe snow and cold, if they encounter hungry monsters at this time, it will be an endless fight.

But right here, the West Valley is close to the entrance of the Dillon Kingdom. The snow here has been cleared away, revealing the dark brown ground. A team of hundreds of people are working hard. Not far away, a deep The gray castle has begun to take shape, connecting the narrowest part of the valley.

The gray city wall of more than 20 meters was the first to be built. It was constructed of carefully excavated large stone bricks. Behind the city wall, you can see that many places are being repaired. Currently, the castle is just an empty frame.

The busy workers in the castle were all working with their heads down and silent among themselves, but their strong bodies and vaguely sturdy aura reflected their unusual status.

“Lord Abbas!”

The adjutant wearing the dark black military uniform of the Kingdom of Dillon quickly closed the opened tent to isolate the cold wind outside, walked to Clint Abbas, and said respectfully.

Abbas did not raise his head, but continued to look down at the castle drawings on the table in front of him, frowning.

“What's the matter, Frank?”

As the person in charge of the construction of this castle in the West Valley, Abbas naturally knows the significance and importance of this castle best, so he placed his office next to the castle construction site so that he can observe the construction at any time progress.

Although this is indeed a lot of hard work, and even raising a bonfire in the tent cannot completely eliminate the cold of the Luoxue Mountains, in order to live up to Anna's trust and trust, Abbas is willing to stay at the castle construction site at all times.

“The latest batch of building materials has been shipped and is now parked in warehouses No. 3, 4, and 5.”

“Master Thoth told me that the main frame of West Castle has been 80% completed and can now be strengthened with subsequent enchantments.”

"good!"

Abbas's eyes lit up. This was the best news he had received in the past few days. Although he had been staying at the castle and was aware of all the progress, all construction steps required the construction of Toth. The master's affirmation means that even if you are impatient, there is nothing you can do.

After all, the West Castle is built according to the top war castle. Different from ordinary castles, in addition to using stronger stone construction, it also requires a specialized magic pattern master to perform large-scale magic pattern inscriptions. , giving the castle the ability to resist magical attacks.

Therefore, this needs to be controlled by Thoth, the master architect. Abbas does not dare to bury hidden dangers in the construction of the castle in order to keep up with the schedule. This is the bridgehead for the advancement of the Kingdom of Dillon.

The huge cost of construction made the Dillon Kingdom only prepare to build two such castles in the Rocher Mountains, and the other one is on the Hutt Highlands in the west of the Rocher Mountains.

“Then hurry up and continue as planned!”

Abbas turned around and sat on the chair, closed his eyes and thought, and gave instructions to his adjutant Frank.

"Received, Lord Abbas." Frank received the order, but he hesitated and did not leave directly.

"What's wrong?"

Abbas opened his eyes and looked at Frank standing aside.

"It started to snow again. The weather is too cold. Now 60% of the soldiers have frostbite, 10% of the soldiers have fainted, and the three of them have returned to the embrace of the ice goddess. Do you think it would be better if the castle construction work was suspended for one day? Soldiers, take a good rest."

Frank gritted his teeth and said, knowing that what he said might offend Abbas. After all, the construction of the castle was too urgent.

In order not to arouse the vigilance of the Kingdom of Fes, they even chose to start the expedition after the Luoxue Mountains were blocked by heavy snow.

Although this will make the construction of the castle many times more difficult, it is also the safest method.

There was an agreement between the two countries that neither would station troops or build castles in the Rocher Mountains. The Kingdom of Dillon's behavior of building a war castle in the West Valley was obviously a violation of the agreement.

But Frank felt that he had to explain this situation to Abbas. This was one of the most elite troops in the Kingdom of Dillon, and Frank felt heartbroken when he lost one of them.

Abbas took a deep breath. He, who was always very strict with his subordinates, did not rebuke Frank this time. Instead, he said calmly:

“Tell the soldiers to hold on a little longer and wait for the castle to complete the initial enchantment before they can rest for a day.”

How could Abbas not know the pain caused by the cold to the soldiers. These were all his subordinates. The elites who followed him to rush out from the ice field beasts were also the guarantee for his status at this time.

But even so, he could only endure it cruelly and wait for the castle to complete the enchantment and have a certain defensive strength before he could take a breather.

"yes."

Looking at Abbas's expression, Frank felt a little sad, but he still gave a military salute and went out to convey Abbas's order.

Abbas looked at the crackling fire beside him, but his mind was no longer on the drawing in front of him.

He always had a feeling that urged him to speed up the construction of the castle at all costs, as if some danger was imminent.

Is it Fes's army?

Abbas, who has been through life and death many times, never doubts his hunch. This is the guarantee for his current status.

“Well, I hope everything goes well.”

There was only a long sigh left in the tent.

At this time, not far from the castle, in the pine forest on the first level of the valley.

The falling snowflakes suddenly disappeared when they passed by here.

Li Si, who used [Advanced Invisibility Technique] and blended in with his surroundings, looked at the castle under construction in front of him with a serious look on his face.

This is the place where the golden dragon Sylvester Ludwig gave him a hint. It is also one of the two most important operating centers of the Dilon Kingdom in the Luoxue Mountains in his memory.
