Emperor of Arcane

Now that he has decided to go to Severnton, Matthew naturally has to make arrangements for the key matters in the Gulf Territory.

Other things have been basically arranged after communicating with Butler Ralph a few days ago.

Only for the issues of the underground world and increasing population, Matthew still needs to make more detailed arrangements.

Butler Ralph quickly collected the information and began to make arrangements quickly according to Matthew's emphatically instructions.

North of Carr Plain.

Large tracts of land are once again covered with all kinds of weeds. A year ago, there were endless rice fields with abundant fruits.

Wildly growing natural plants have easily taken back land that farmers have cultivated for hundreds of years.

Most of the nobles in this area have already sneaked away.

They had already been swept away by the orcs' attacks, the number of nobles was reduced by nearly half, and the entire family was destroyed by countless people.

A considerable number of those who survived chose to give up their territory, leaving only some symbolic hands to show that the territory was still in his hands.

In fact, most of the surviving nobles had fled with their families.

They fled to Carl City, silently paying attention to the situation, waiting for the orcs to be cleared away.

They did not wait for good news, but instead waited for the bad news that the Bloody Fortress was destroyed.

At this time, they basically no longer had any hope of returning to their territory. They just pretended to be ostriches secretly and sent people to occupy the territory remotely.

As for the citizens and farmers living in the territory, most of them can only resign themselves to their fate.

Faced with the raids by orcs and wolf cavalry, most of the people in the territory did not even bother to farm.

But facing the fatal danger and the consequences of the crops being snatched away after they mature, it is naturally difficult to accept.

Under these circumstances, it is not surprising that cultivated land turns into wilderness.

However, just when most people and farmers felt desperate.

A large number of adventurers from both the north and the south spread the news.

"Do you want to have food to eat? Do you want to be safe? Come to the Bayland Temporary Camp!"

“In the Gulf Territory, if one person works, the whole family is fed, the whole family works, and the land is well divided.”

"The Gulf Territory that defeated the orcs has absolute security."

"The temporary camp is good, there is enough food, and clothes are provided to keep warm."

The adventurers not only brought slogans, but also gave them some free food, and other farmers accompanying them showed up to give their own opinions.

Many territorial residents and farmers who could no longer uncover the pot had to follow their instructions and go to temporary camps arranged in water source areas.

At first, they were a little scared and worried.

After all, even in the Netheril Empire, many citizens and people still hold the idea of ​​awe and fear towards the mysterious Lord Arcanist.

But as the reputation of the Gulf Territory spreads wider and wider, more and more refugees and farmers are recruited, so they no longer worry.

Anyway, a steady stream of food is delivered to the camp to ensure everyone has three meals a day.

The food is also good, even better than some farmers' own food.

The work was not heavy either, and the men went out in groups to farm or fish in the waters.

Women enter factories in the camp and receive a certain level of factory skills training.

Children will be gathered together for preliminary literacy instruction.

Even the elderly will not be abandoned and will be arranged to help cook and distribute food.

After eating stably, most people basically have nothing to complain about.

Not to mention, the camp will distribute rewards based on everyone’s work performance to stimulate everyone’s enthusiasm for work.

At the same time, some small benefits to win people's hearts are also very effective.

New clothing issued to everyone every three months.

No effort is spared in nurturing children.

Snacks and extra meals are distributed from time to time.

After such a series of combined punches, everyone became very well-behaved and obedient.

No one wants to be unbehaved.

Whether it is the adventurers hired by the camp or the burly golems that can fight against orcs, they can put an end to the little thoughts in everyone's mind.

Recently, the residents who completed the first batch of harvest received a commitment from the camp director.

"If you are willing, you can prepare to go to the bay to get it."

"Houses and jobs have been prepared for everyone there, ensuring that everyone lives a better life..."

"As for this area, the danger will become greater and greater, and it is very likely that it will be raided by orc troops next year..."

The words of the person in charge revealed that the camp was unable to resist the orc army.

Not everyone who gathered in the camp headed to the Gulf Territory in advance. After all, it was hard to leave their homeland.

However, it is completely different now!

The news that the outer wall of the Scarlet Fortress had been destroyed has spread, and everyone knows that other nobles have rushed to the scene.

In this case, the vast majority of people would choose to leave the dangerous Kal Plain.

In just a few dozen days, more than 300,000 people in the camp were moved to the Gulf Territory.

People who have been trained, adapted to the order, and understand the rules no longer cause some management troubles and conflicts like before.

They integrated very quickly and filled various positions in the Gulf Territory.

Whether it's a factory, a soldier, a stronghold, or a fortress, they all behave very naturally.

Having experienced the test of life and death, they understand the importance of safety very well.

Similarly, you may also be very satisfied with the various benefits provided by Gulf Territory.

In addition to rapidly absorbing the population, a large number of brand new materials were quickly delivered to the advanced base located in the underground world.

The slightly shining magic pipes were placed in the passages with the concerted efforts of the kobolds and jackals.

Camp after camp was set up, filled with staff sent down from the Gulf Territory.

Compared with the small-scale cement production on the surface, the underground base that controls the supply of an entire energy element pool is building a large number of various golem factories.

Various types of transformation golems replace manpower to speed up the efficiency of development and construction.

Each base here has supporting production lines that Matthew ordered.

The things produced are very simple, some are weapons and armors, some are military cans, and some are crossbows and crossbow arrows.

No matter what the circumstances, these materials can be effective and useful.

Instead of producing much at once, Matthew arranged to store large quantities of raw materials.

At that time, by dispatching a small number of authorized production personnel, the bases can be put into operation quickly.

Of course, these bases are kept secret at all times, and they belong to the retreat prepared by Matthew for the Gulf Territory.

Regarding the growing army of drow elves, Matthew's idea was very simple.

Arrange personnel to open up the narrow interface, expand the field of vision, and always pay attention to the movements of the drow army.

At the same time, a group of elite troops sent by Matthew, as well as a large number of adventurers, emerged from some trails.

The purpose is to find high-quality minerals in the surrounding area.

For ordinary mineral veins, there is no need to dig secretly.

But for precious mineral veins such as fine gold, gemstones, and mithril, whatever you can dig is profitable.

After all, the Gulf Territory has small equipment for secret excavation and a teleportation array with deep pockets.

Spending as much money as possible, acquiring more precious materials, and creating strategic forces like magic armor is the key to the development of the Gulf Territory.

At the same time, Matthew also asked the adventurers to explore the intelligence of the surrounding underground world.

The main direction is the battlefield between the drow army and the Kalaya Gnoll Kingdom.

It is profitable for two powerful powers to compete with each other.
