Let give you a simple example.
Originally, everyone was in a big pond (the elental concentration in the whole environnt was the sa), but the Kingdom of Ser started its own initiative, turning its kingdom into a circular reservoir and siphoning the surrounding water for its own priority use.
As the water level of the big pond lowered, the reservoir of the Kingdom of Ser rose.
When it was windy or rainy, and the small reservoir of the Kingdom of Ser overflowed, it did not affect itself much, but its neighboring areas would suffer.
This is just a simple taphor; the situation involving elents is far more complex than this.
For example, to permanently change the environnt, one must have a source of strength.
Using regional magic arrays to extract surrounding elents is a more conventional thod.
Another clever thod is to directly connect with the Elental Plane and channel its purest elental power for one’s own use to achieve the desired goal.
Compared to the forr, the latter has the advantage of lower cost and faster results.
The downside is that the massive influx of elents is more likely to disrupt the balance of the Material Plane, causing elental disasters.
The Laiserman Kingdom importing massive elents into the Totem Demiplane does not fall under this category, as it is an independent half-plane outside the Material Plane.
Given the Kingdom of Ser’s profit-driven nature, they surely adopted the second thod in the Kingdom of Ser.
As long as they maximize their own profits, whether neighboring conditions improve or protecting the natural environnt is irrelevant to them.
"Is there a permanent solution to this matter?" Gaven humbly inquired.
"Destroy the Kingdom of Ser and ruin their magical agriculture on the Ser Plateau; that would solve the problem once and for all," replied the Wind Spirit Witch without hesitation.
"Haha... You truly jest, Lord Witch," Gaven laughed as if he had heard a great joke, "This is sothing the Witches have been unable to accomplish for centuries; what capability do I have to achieve it?"
Though the Haslan Witches would not admit it, the Red Robe Mages of the Kingdom of Ser are indeed more powerful, an incontrovertible fact.
Their war with the Kingdom of Ser has always been in a defensive stance, rarely taking the offensive.
This remains the case despite the Kingdom of Ser making enemies on all sides and engaging in severe internal strife.
If ever they unite slightly or reach so internal agreent, it spells disaster for neighboring regions.
Considering the current national power of the Kingdom of Ser, they can only be destroyed by themselves.
External pressure only forces them to unite internally, making them stronger.
"Just because we can’t achieve sothing, doesn’t an Commander cannot," suggested the Wind Spirit Witch aningfully.
The Haslan Witches’ Council handed the most prized spoils of the Tukan People to Gaven, sending Klonte and Ashanas to him as well.
They had their own interests at heart.
They wanted to forge him into a keen-edged longspear against the Kingdom of Ser.
Whether he would confront the Kingdom of Ser as they wished was nothing to worry about.
Even without the previously established friendly relations, the greedy nature of those Red Robe Mages would set him against them.
Unless Gaven was willing to be manipulated and exploited by those Red Robe Mages.
Gaven rely laughed off the topic without engaging further with the Wind Spirit Witch.
For this kind of topic, there is no correct answer.
Being overly confident easily earns one arrogant labels.
Being too timid easily disliked by these Haslan Witches.
The Wind Spirit Witch, not intending to dwell on the topic, continued to strategize, "The simplest way to counter a magic region is to establish another magic region.
Once a new balance is reached, the excess elents will no longer flow in this direction."
"As much as I want to, establishing a magic region is not sothing achieved overnight; you spent nearly a millennium in the Laiserman Kingdom.
The Kingdom of Ser has been developing the Ser Plateau for over two centuries, investing countless resources, and even now they do not have the ability to build a second Ser Plateau."
Gaven sighed helplessly, realizing compared to these ancient kingdoms,
his most fatal flaw was his shallow foundation.
Many things require ti to accumulate and cannot be rushed.
A key component being talents at all levels, especially spellcasters.
This magical region construction needs a large number of low to mid-level spellcasters for support and maintenance.
The issue in Ashanas cannot be solved as easily as setting up a few mage towers guiding elents like in the Golden Apple Garden.
If it were that easy, even if the Haslan Witches hadn’t done it, those Seth rchants would have long since accomplished it.
"There is a temporary but not permanent solution," the Wind Spirit Witch spoke again.
An eager Gaven asked, "What is it?"
"Build a Wind Summoning Tower at the southern edge of the Ashanas Plains, turning passive into active, to gather those excess wind elents, confine and transfer them.
Though this won’t completely eliminate the magical storm, it can drastically reduce its potency, avoiding disaster."
"You can supplent with conventional wind control techniques, like a windbreak forest," inford the Wind Spirit Witch truthfully.
Gaven couldn’t help but show a hint of joy, saying, "Would the Lord Witch be able to construct a Wind Summoning Tower? With it, everything else would be much easier to resolve."
