Chapter 1050 -1047: Time Flies Like a White Colt

Touching the barrier required patience.

And time, like a white steed flashing past a crevice, rushed by.

In May of the Sapphire Calendar Year 157, Duke of Snowstorm Mountain, Scora Cornflower, died. Before his death, Duke Scora announced that his title would be inherited by Second Prince Scart Cornflower.

First Prince Spot Cornflower immediately rebelled and proclaimed that Second Prince Scart Cornflower was a patricide, asserting that the ducal title rightfully belonged to him. The old duke’s two sons each claimed to be the rightful Duke of Snowstorm Mountain and sought arbitration from the Cornflower Gem Dragon of the Snowstorm Mountain Duchy.

The Cornflower Gem Dragon paid no heed to the brothers’ strife.

Then, the First Prince sought help from the Yellowstone Kingdom, while the Second Prince turned to Yevich Water Peanut, requesting assistance from the “Eagle Kingdom” behind him.

The Snowstorm Mountain Duchy plunged into civil war, and many civilians, to escape the turmoil, were covertly transported by the mercenary corps organized by Yevich to Heroic Yellow City, through the Male Jade Transmission Array, settling in the Flame Kingdom. The arrival of these Snowstorm Mountain civilians was a significant boost to the population structure balance in the Flame Kingdom.

Thus, Liszt instructed Yevich, “You must ensure that the civil war in Snowstorm Mountain Duchy lasts for three to five years, continuously relocating populations to supplement our Flame Kingdom.”

“Your Majesty, rest assured, everything is under control.” Yevich, already mounted on a high-level Dragon Beast—Pegasus, confidently stated.

“Once you complete this task, upon returning home, you will be the new Marquis of the Flame Kingdom!” Liszt promised benefits, for he liked to motivate his followers with interests.

The abovementioned Pegasus was a reward for Yevich’s years of operation in the Snowstorm Mountain Duchy. Granting a marquisate after completing the population relocation strategy was also a natural step. This once despondent candidate for the Dragon Knight Plan had become a Completion Level Sky Knight through hardships.

Worth reemploying.

“I will never disappoint Your Majesty’s expectations!” Yevich was spirited.

He had already married the daughter of a local marquis in Snowstorm Mountain Duchy, reaping rewards in both career and love, feeling that he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

It was with the help of this marquis that he thrived in the Snowstorm Mountain Duchy.

The marquis had long become a follower of Liszt and aligned with the Flame Kingdom under his introduction.

All these schemes were conducted secretly by the Development Committee, with Liszt merely showing up for a lunch with the marquis.

…

In June of the Sapphire Calendar Year 157, after spending two months with the Mountain Copper Dragon Mata, the Thorn Greater Elf Jela could no longer bear it and complained to Liszt, “Mata is just a big stupid dragon that does nothing but eat, drink, and sleep. It’s no better than a pig from a piggery, and it should be slaughtered for meat!”

“What’s the matter, don’t you like Mata?” Liszt asked with a smile.

Jela, hands on hips, cheeks puffed out with indignation, exclaimed, “I will absolutely never like this big stupid dragon, wuah!”

This phrase seemed familiar; she had described the Formless Dragon Bard similarly two months ago. It appeared that even if she gritted her teeth, Jela had no luck with either the Mountain Copper Dragon or the Formless Dragon.

“Then let me take you to meet Aluminum Dragon Connor. Mata’s and Connor’s Dragon Nests are not far apart, so you wouldn’t need to move. While interacting with Connor, also take the time to clear the Thorn Plantation, then select a Worm Room in the Sun Moon Star Palace.”

Flame City was a major agricultural city with many plantations cleared.

However, as Liszt was about to move into the Sun Moon Star Palace, some plantations would also relocate, including the Thorn Plantation—Flame King City’s nearby soil was particularly suitable for thorn bushes, a shrub type plant.

“I know, I’ve seen Connor, and he’s a bit ugly.” Jela had disliked Aluminum Dragon Connor even before they started to interact, leaving Liszt without any expectation that she would take a liking to Connor—Jela didn’t seem on the verge of evolving, her personality was just acting up.

However, Liszt was willing to let her quirks run their course, just in case she evolved. After all, thorns did have the Auxiliary Medicine Thorn variety, which was far more valuable than ordinary magic potions.

The Magic Guild had recently categorized magic potions by grades.

The lowest grade was the ordinary chaotic type magic potion, referred to as mixed standard magic potion. This type was just ordinary magic potion, usable by all knights with average effects.

The next level up was the ordinary single type magic potion, referred to as single standard magic potion. This type of potion is categorized based on magic power attributes, having good effects for knights with the same Dou Qi attributes, but not much effect on knights with different Dou Qi attributes.

The next level up was the ordinary specific type magic potion, referred to as special standard magic potion. This type was actually just like the single standard magic potion, but limited to the Light and Dark attributes. These categories of potions were rare and hence relatively more valuable.

Be it single standard or special standard, they can be named individually, such as water standard potion, fire standard potion, light standard potion…

Above the special standard was the strong medicine, referred to simply as strong medicine. For example, the Platinum Magic Potion from the Red and White Rose Family was considered strong medicine, providing powerful effects to knights consuming it.

Above strong medicine were auxiliary magic medicines, referred to as auxiliary medicine.

Above auxiliary medicines was the Dragon’s Magic Potion, referred to as dragon medicine. Dragon medicine didn’t have outstanding effects on human knights but provided immense benefits to dragons. For instance, the Red Dragon Water from the Red and White Rose Family and the Fire Dragon Elixir from the Flame Family both belonged to this category of dragon medicine.

Mixed standard, single standard, special standard, strong medicine, auxiliary medicine, dragon medicine—these were the six classifications of magic potions.

Further divisions were possible, with strong medicine being subcategorized into mixed strong, single strong, and special strong, and similar grading for dragon medicine. However, this was unnecessary as strong medicine and dragon medicine were already too rare.

…

In the Sapphire Calendar Year 157, August, King’s Castle of the Flame Kingdom fully installed magic lamp bulbs in the underground paths, indicating smooth city operations with the illumination of the pathways.

Thus, the Development Committee organized the first batch of immigrants.

These immigrants were well-behaving citizens from major cities who would become the honored residents of Flame King City. Besides the civilians, various knights from the Burning Legion also moved to reside in Flame King City.

Temporarily, the Burning Legion comprised five orders: the Mammoth Knight Brigade (riding Shovel-Tusked Giant Elephants), the Royal Knight Squad – Red Sparrow Team (riding Red Sparrow Birds), the Burning Knights Group (riding Black Blood Treasured Horses), the Blizzard Knights (riding Blizzard Beasts), and the Pegasus Knights (riding Pegasus).

Of course, each order was still under development and had very few members.

After the official operation of Flame King City, the surrounding facilities also began to operate gradually, and the most important, the Sun Moon Star Palace, soon completed its main construction. Mr. Carter personally led a large group of servants from Flame Castle to the Sun Moon Star Palace to oversee the interior decoration.

As for the surrounding architectural wonders of the royal palace, they were already transferred to Ach, who personally designed and supervised their construction.

The Flying Moat, Vertical Lift, Miniature Magic Gate, Aerial Floating Park, Man-made Sun, Moon and Stars, Crystal Rainbow Canopy, Proportional Dragon Sculpture, Eternal Torch, Endless Rain Cloud… Ach had many ideas, and the resources required to build these wonders would be astronomical.

Thus, Liszt made his own suggestion, “Ach, why don’t we start with the Proportional Dragon Sculpture and the Vertical Lift first? We can slowly build the other facilities as time permits.”

Ach felt somewhat reluctant.

But still, understandingly nodded, “Ach will listen to brother.”

Thus, Liszt quietly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief—he realized a landlord’s house isn’t always stocked with surplus!
