Faser Plane.
After two more days, Lin Ke and the others finally found a city.
In the end, all the Gula nobility revered Lin Ke.
They hadn’t initially planned to shine brightly at the nobility council, as there were limited high-ranking nobles among the Gula nobility, and not much change occurred.
However, the lower-ranking nobles experienced significant changes, presenting an opportunity for these lesser nobles to stand out, like Garoce did back then.
But this ti, stardust gathered, multiplying epics.
These low-level professionals could only cling to Lin Ke’s thigh.
...
Gazing at the city in the distance seemingly made of earth, Lin Ke used his Eagle Eye Magic to look afar, finding that the city wasn’t large and contained no strong auras.
"Set up camp here." Lin Ke raised his hand to signal everyone to halt.
Sliding off the Lava Lion, Lin Ke approached everyone and asked, "Is there an Architect among us?"
Logically, many in the nobility were Architects, Gardeners, and such.
But these were minor nobles, who generally held more combat-related positions.
"I am, esteed Mr. Lin Ke!"
A young man with white hair and a powdered face raised his hand, stepping forward with admiration, and stood before Lin Ke, pounding his chest.
"Sir, what is your situation?" Lin Ke wouldn’t act superior in front of him, and also pounded his own chest.
"Sir, I am an eighth-level Desert Walker, lbourne, and a fifth-level Architect, from the Constant Clan."
lbourne briefly explained his situation, then sowhat embarrassedly said, "If we build a fortress, it might take a long ti."
"The Constant Clan, descendants of the Marquis of the Desert?" Lin Ke raised an eyebrow. "We don’t need a fortress; we first need to find a suitable location."
Generally, a marquis’s family would have many cities and villages to assign to their descendants, unless there were too many descendants and too few territories.
So marquises would even bestow secondary planes to their favorite descendants.
However, as far as he knew, the Marquis of the Desert only had three children, so why send one out?
"Alright!" lbourne nodded to Lin Ke, quite enthusiastic, then naturally stood behind Lin Ke.
"John, arrange for the Secret Text Master to construct a large maze to prevent prying." Lin Ke found it quite handy to use people.
Many nobles chose the Secret Text Master as a part-ti role, and a maze was similar to the "labyrinth" or "trap array" from his previous life.
"Rica, take the Gardeners to start planting and monitor the surroundings."
"Yale, pay attention to the fortifications of the campsite."
"Sophie, Lamiel, compose so of our poems and songs, and spread them."
...
Lin Ke gave instructions one by one, first tending to the campsite, then looked at lbourne beside him: "Let’s go for a trip."
Then he told Garoce: "Father, I’ll leave this to you."
"Rest assured." Garoce patted Lin Ke’s shoulder: "Stay safe."
"Alright." Lin Ke imdiately called Little Lucky, leaving the Glory Lion in the camp, then looked at lbourne following behind him: "You’re a Desert Walker; can you keep up?"
Walker professions varied, but they all had the common trait of being fast.
"No problem!" lbourne was eager to make a good impression, especially knowing the broadcast was ongoing, which further fueled his enthusiasm.
"Then let’s go." Lin Ke patted the back of Little Lucky.
"Screech!!"
Little Lucky let out a clear cry, flas roaring up, taking flight, and even provocatively glanced at lbourne.
However, it didn’t fly too high, rely cruising at low altitude.
"The Phoenix!" lbourne had always known Lin Ke had a Phoenix pet.
The noble Phoenix bloodline, related to the Sun God, yet beca a pet of Count Linke; how admirable!
Except...
Provoking him?
Provoking him, a Walker?
"Screech!!"
Little Lucky flapped its wings swiftly, dashing forward. Being a twelfth-level Phoenix and Thunder Sea Eagle, it never lost in speed.
Seeing this, lbourne imdiately surged with energy, his body seemingly transforming into a gust of wind, tearing forward.
Skill—Swift Run.
As he moved, the larger the wind and sand stirred up, the faster he would go.
"lbourne, observe the terrain closely; it needs to be near the city, accommodate around a hundred thousand people, have geological suitability for excavation, and bear weight..."
Throughout this process, Lin Ke seed unconcerned about lbourne’s speed; instead, he focused on stressing key considerations.
lbourne initially admired Lin Ke and now listened intently.
Upon hearing, he realized Lin Ke indeed possessed profound insights into construction!
Construction isn’t just about piling up soil and stone; it requires attention to the land’s load-bearing capacity, collapsing risks, moisture issues, and more.
Even the strongest Architects must consider these factors, though powerful ones can alter geology and materials’ qualities themselves.
"No problem!" lbourne agreed.
Thus, originally intending to race the Phoenix, lbourne also began paying attention to the surrounding environnt.
Divided attention took its toll, and before long, spanning several dozen kiloters, he began to tire.
However, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
After a while, reaching a small forest, Lin Ke spoke: "Let’s take a break here."
lbourne was surprised: "I’m not tired! It’s no problem for !"
Lin Ke glanced at him: "I’m tired."
Riding a Phoenix and Lin Ke was tired?
lbourne was more surprised but quickly understood.
Count Linke was considerate of him, caring for his pride!
"Count Linke, I don’t...," lbourne felt grateful and wanted to express sothing.
"You all wait here for ." But Lin Ke raised his hand to stop him and stood up: "I’ll go check it out; you wait here for ."
Speaking, Lin Ke reached out, pulling a red tal staff from the Space Ring.
Staff of Annihilation!
The Staff of Annihilation contained two full-power strikes of Dominators, but the item itself was not of legendary grade, so it could be brought in unrestricted.
Holding the Staff of Annihilation, Lin Ke walked into the forest ahead, leaving behind a perplexed lbourne and Little Lucky grooming its feathers.
Walking forward, layers of darkness coiled around Lin Ke like they intended to engulf him.
He remained still, neither employing any defensive asures, rely walking slowly like an ordinary person, with a calm expression and steady steps.
Gradually, more darkness surrounded him, licking at his skin as though ready to penetrate the next instant.
Lin Ke suddenly stood firm, a slight sneer forming at his lips, scoffing: "Had enough playing around?"
At the sa ti, he gently elicited an aura from the staff, an overwhelming pressure akin to the depths of the ocean pervading the air.
"You are the Supre God!"
Suddenly, an exclamation broke out from ahead.
