The Witcher: Elemental Lords

#747 - Ministry of Internal Affairs

However, given the nature of these large families, they shouldn't bother sending a Level 7 to deal with someone who isn't even Level 7 themselves. It would be pointless.

So, it's safe here for now.

The Alexander Family really shot themselves in the foot this time, losing both face and substance.

Akso thought for a moment, then checked the progress of the wizard tower. It was only ten percent away from being fully charged.

Once the wizard tower finishes storing energy, he'll test its capabilities nearby, master its performance, and then, in a year or two, he can go back for revenge.

...

March 15th.

The road leading to the Albis Mountains was completely repaired, transforming from a muddy path into a wide road about fifteen meters wide. Various families, forces, and even the City Lord's Mansion began recruiting stonemasons and workers to officially start quarrying and transporting stones.

Because it was inside the Albis Mountains, many forces were eager to move. This was the best opportunity to analyze the storms on the Albis Mountains.

In less than three days, the Orne family took the lead in organizing convoys and manpower to begin work. A large group of people set off from the city gate, heading towards the now even more terrifying Albis Mountains.

With stones, the construction of the city walls could be put on the agenda. The city's boundaries had been basically defined, and Dole was also recruiting apprentices to prepare for building other city structures that required stone.

At this time, the first group of people from Wasenburg also arrived.

...

A luxurious convoy came from the south, passing through Roderick City and entering the wasteland.

Along the way, many merchant groups gave way to the luxurious convoy because it was a convoy of the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the imperial flag hanging on it was awe-inspiring.

Seeing the Ministry of Internal Affairs convoy, many merchants showed joy on their faces.

People who frequently traveled the route between Du City and Roderick City knew that once the Albis route was completed, they wouldn't have to spend so much effort taking a detour of over a thousand kilometers, saving a lot of manpower and resources. Although the Northern Wilderness Mountains were next door, Dole the wizard's current power was enough to let them safely travel the route he planned. After all, the Albis Mountains were a cautionary tale, and they couldn't wait for the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrive in Albis City as soon as possible.

So, many merchant groups gave way.

The convoy proceeded unhurriedly, slowly entering the wasteland.

At this moment, a curtain in one of the carriages was lifted, and a stern-faced, dignified man leaned out, looking at the dividing line on both sides.

After a glance, he noticed many things.

This place had obviously experienced some battles, and the boundary between the two sides was very blurred. The road extending from the wasteland had been built all the way into Roderick City. At the end of the road, Roderick City seemed to have a small lord occupying it, and a new town was being built nearby.

After passing through this small town, the roads inside and outside were completely different. The road near Albis City was very smooth, obviously having been treated, while the road in Roderick City was obviously only maintained by the merchant groups, and the road was full of deep ruts.

"Building roads brings wealth, enclosing land leads to self-destruction," the middle-aged man nodded slightly.

At this moment, he looked up and saw a pair of carriages and horses coming from the wasteland at a fast speed.

The merchant group had flags, but he didn't recognize them. However, it was clear that the people inside were very relaxed, so the journey should not have been dangerous.

The merchant group saw the luxurious convoy and slowly reduced their speed, voluntarily standing on the side of the road.

The luxurious convoy slowly passed the merchant group.

Just as they were about to pass, someone in the merchant group suddenly shouted, "Adults from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, please hurry up, we've been waiting for a long time, haha."

A burst of laughter came from the merchant group, and then they slowly set off, quickly disappearing at the end of the road.

The middle-aged man took all of this into his eyes.

He called out, and soon, two people on horseback caught up from behind.

These two people were also dressed extraordinarily and had a calm demeanor.

The middle-aged man said at this time, "What do you two think?"

One of them thought for a moment, then looked at the flat road ahead, "The road looks good, but I don't know what it's like inside?"

The other person said, "Being able to build the road here and still maintain it well means that the manager isn't too bad. To get rich, build roads first. A lord who doesn't build roads will only dig his own grave."

The middle-aged man nodded, thinking of the task on his shoulders, feeling a slight headache. On the one hand, he had to be as fast as possible, and on the other hand, he had to delay. Now he didn't know what to do.

He only hoped that Dole's attitude would be slightly worse so that he would have a chance to find fault. However, the other party possessed an entire wizard tower complex, which he had personally built, and his own strength was exceptionally terrifying, so he didn't dare to act rashly. If he died here, or in this wasteland, the imperial capital would only say that he was incompetent, and perhaps his death would implicate his family, so it was a headache.

"Let's take a look first. Measurement takes time anyway," the first person said meaningfully.

The other person had a different opinion, "The Albis Mountains are an important transportation hub between the northwest and the north. Governor Daleid of Daleid Province and Governor Gustav of Montana Province have suggested to the imperial capital that it be dealt with quickly, so we can't delay the time either. I know that several families have spoken to you two, but this is not the imperial capital now."

They had already been very slow on the road. If they delayed for too long, someone would have disagreed long ago. The Third Prince alone had sent people to deliver messages, urging them a full four times.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Alright, let's follow the procedure. We've delayed for too long and need to give an explanation to those families as well. We can't mess up what His Majesty Yale ordered, or we won't be able to explain ourselves when we get back. Since the road here is clear, let's speed up a bit."

...

Dole recently reduced some of his informants. The Security Bureau and the Military Bureau have been deployed, and the people who came from Wasenburg have been arranged, so he doesn't know what's happening in the southern wasteland.

He retrieved most of the Xuan Corpse Worms and Frost Heaven Worms, mainly because he was afraid that someone would specifically hunt his clones, especially the Alexander Family.

After expelling Ricktor, although he didn't provoke any trouble, he clearly felt that something was wrong. Judging from the few times Allen sent him messages, the situation in the imperial capital was really not optimistic.

The power of the Alexander Family was truly terrifying, so much so that even the words of a prince about to ascend the throne were not very useful.

So, he now only knows about the situation on the wasteland from the information gathered from various places.

When the convoy was about to arrive at the first town entering Albis City, he received the news that the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had arrived.

Dole himself didn't have many thoughts. He sent a few people to guide the way and waited peacefully in the City Lord's Mansion. He didn't bother to personally greet anyone below a Level 6 wizard.

Recently, the Storm Domain has become calmer, and the Storm artistic conception is gradually becoming perfect. He will also start focusing on cultivation, leaving the city construction to others, and just wait to collect money.

The ninth level of the Storm Child Meditation Technique has reached the final level, reaching a new realm. From here on, the meditation technique has reached its limit. Whether or not there will be any achievements next depends entirely on personal understanding and personal talent.

Based on the meditation technique, whatever rules one comprehends will be those rules. Whatever achievements one makes in the rules depends entirely on one's own thoughts and will. This is something no one can predict.
