(6200) 953: Chapter 85 I Am the Prophet!
(6200) While the King of the Mountain was exchanging words with the Galewind Dragon King above the Orbital Dragon Island.
Terra, the Empire’s Southern Ridges.
Ian was also dealing with dragons.
Recently, Sio has repaired his own Dragon Nest, and the scenery around Solitary Fla Peak has changed dramatically.
The area around Solitary Fla Peak was originally filled with dark clouds, and thunder would often strike down, flashing with a blaze-like light, hence the Mountain People called it Solitary Fla.
But now, layers of White Mist enveloped the surroundings of the summit, which sketched out the embryonic form of a vortex like the light grey brushstrokes in a Chinese ink painting, with pale blue electric arcs flowing through the clouds, gathering natural forces, and gently guiding the thunder into the mountain, turning it into energy.
Visible on the peak, from ti to ti, are spirit energy lines that can be seen with the naked eye, crisscrossing the surface of the mountain, eventually vanishing into the core of the rock layers.
The isolation of Solitary Fla Peak, especially over the past decade of great storms, has stripped away the topsoil, leaving behind the most solid rock structures, which clearly have been transford into a dragon’s den.
Ian walked halfway up Solitary Fla Peak, taking an interested observation of this transford and rejuvenated strategic location—withinside the mountain, Sio had buried many large structures, like this tallic projection shaped like a bullet in front of Ian, which is an air vent for a massive underground pipe.
The copper pipes, exposed on the surface, occasionally spewed out milky, faintly glowing steam that shot straight into the clouds crowning the peak, contributing to the reuse of energy.
Centered around the Dragon Nest, a small Origin-Rich Region would form.
In a few years, many Sublimation Plants, and even so extrely special Sublimation Mana Plants related to the True Dragon’s characteristics, will grow on Sio’s Dragon Nest.
The technology of True Dragons far surpasses what many can imagine, and those who do not know the source of True Dragons’ power often mistake the ignorance of Sub-Dragons and the savagery of half-dragons as the nature of dragons.
But in reality, each True Dragon possesses inconceivably advanced techniques and wisdom, and even a fifth-generation True Dragon like Sio, born from his parents’ flesh and blood, also contains the essence of the highest level of mory.
Although he didn’t inherit his mother’s wisdom, Sio’s years of studying in the Dragon Nest has enabled him to master quite a bit.
“Next ti, maybe I can convince Sio to visit the Alchemy Workshop?
Adalbert has always wanted to take a close look at what a True Dragon is really about.” Ian thought as he approached the entrance to Sio’s Dragon Nest.
Compared to the first ti, the Dragon Nest’s entrance was now sealed by a large tal door, with two golden Elental Crystals shimring with intense light at the entrance.
Upon being illuminated by this light, the door automatically opened for Ian—he was recorded as a highest-level guest, and naturally, the Dragon Nest would not reject the youth.
By the way, the King of the Mountain’s authority is sowhat special; although also at the highest level, it triggers an alarm-like loud noise to alert a certain True Dragon that their mother has arrived.
Ian was here this ti to check on Sio’s recent recovery.
As Sio’s body continued to grow, he needed to consu large amounts of Sublimated tal and special biomatter, for which the King of the Mountain took responsibility for so, but as Sio’s Lord and temporary guardian (entrusted by the King of the Mountain), Ian naturally had to do his part as well.
Providing Sublimated tal is easy, the Mountain People can completely supply it.
In fact, the Mountain People are too accustod to serving a True Dragon.
Even many tribes, upon realizing that they could serve a True Dragon, were moved to tears, repeatedly refusing the remuneration Ian offered, forcing Ian to present the paynt anyway.
Money even has to be forcibly given, what a situation.jpg
Of course, this is also a benefit of Ian’s high prestige…
Recently, under Ian’s strong asures, all Mountain Tribes who once sided with Fiery Fla Land have been forcefully disbanded and subjected to centralized managent, and their wealth and land have been taken by Ian and other Mountain Tribes supporting the Empire.
And Ian also brought the Mountain People a large number of modern work tools and Alchemical Creations, reasonably priced glowstone lamps replacing primitive oil lamps, and roads began to be laid between tribes, greatly facilitating the exchange of goods and Ian’s administration.
With these benefits, as well as the increasingly elite Magnetic Storm Armor Squad in Ian’s hands, all the Mountain People were effectively disciplined.
Occasionally, there were so who didn’t want to be ruled, so a lesson with so executions was necessary to establish authority, and the fools who were itching for it would return to their senses.
There were typical examples, tribal Chieftains who had issues with Ian, even paraded through the streets before being executed at each tribe’s entrance and proclaid their cris.
While this may seem like violent terror rule, it must be explained: in this world of Sublimators, if you don’t show your own brand of violent terror, others will teach you what violent terror is.
Surely no one believes that appeasent and morality can control a group of people who are still at the tribal stage of political structure and possess the inheritance of sublimation, right?
That wouldn’t just be naive, but foolish.
And for those defeated Mountain People who have been centralized, Ian is well aware that the vast majority are just ordinary people.
But when compared to causing his own Mountain People misery, he would rather see the enemies suffer.
However, it’s not much of a problem.
Ian centralized these people around the swamp area northwest of the Bison Mountain Range for a swamp reclamation project, and began a large-scale cultivation of the Sky Crystal Mushroom—a primary material for Elental Crystals—he will provide sufficient food and tools, while the accommodations and public facilities may be rudintary, they are solidly constructed without any cut corners.
