Chapter 1,204 Ideal and Reality (Additional Updates)
There is a saying that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Not only were there four empty plane nodes around him, but under the guidance of the demigod-level magician Shubert, Thane inspected seventeen plane nodes in the southern part of the Abarut Empire.
There is no place that completely satisfies Thain.
Either the strength of the fire element rules is too low and cannot meet Thain's standards.
Or the intensity of the rules is too high, to the point where the surroundings are surrounded by a sea of fire and dead volcanoes. If a holy tower is built in such a place, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the aerial boats to transport apprentices to enter.
There are also some other problems, such as the element ratio in the plane node not matching with Thane, etc.
Or maybe there is a plane node that has basically reached Thane's psychological bottom line in the general direction, but one problem is that there are two holy towers built by level six magicians around it. .??.
There are two six-level holy towers around, which have a siphon effect. In such a resource environment, if Thain wants to make a breakthrough, more than one word "difficulty" can be summed up.
At Thain's request, Schubert continued to take him all the way towards the central and northern part of the Abalut Empire.
The choice of plane nodes is not that easy. If it takes only a dozen or several decades to find a suitable site for the holy tower, then it will be like seeing the undead.
And in the process of inspecting the Ebalut Empire, Thane also found out more about the policy of this top power in the wizarding world to favor resources for newly promoted magicians of level 4 or above.
Apart from those flashy preferential policies, the resource support that the Ebalut Empire can bring to new Holy Tower owners like Thane is limited.
What is a flashy policy?
For example, if Thane brings his family to join the Ebalut Empire, his family can directly enjoy the hereditary title of Marquis of the Empire by virtue of his status as a fourth-level magician.
Although the Marquis of the Ebalut Empire is not at the same level as the noble titles of small kingdoms in other parts of the wizarding world.
But in Thain's eyes, this is just a flashy benefit.
As for the low-interest loans from the Ebalut Empire... Thane can only say hell.
He doesn't want to become an unlucky guy with a huge magic coin loan just yet.
If he is really short of money, Thane might consider borrowing money from Tourmaline, or asking Spider Queen Rose for some help.
These two are definitely not money-hungry people.
In addition, the resources and properties that Thane brought back from Faerun Continent, as well as the harvest he gained last time in Knight Continent.
Except for some of them, which are consumed in Thain's daily experiments, many other things can be sold directly.
After this inspection in the Abalut Empire is completed, Thane will go to the Business Alliance Capechi to start this matter.
I don’t know how many magic coins the items in his space conch will be worth in the end?
In addition to the trophies obtained by the Hunter God of Thain, a large part of them were gifts from the Purgatory Princess Anna Karenina.
It has to be said that Thane does owe that succubus queen a huge favor.
…
Thane stayed in the Ebalut Empire for fifty-one years.
The final result of the inspection made Thain slightly disappointed.
Thain found a total of three plane nodes that barely met his conditions.
Originally there were four places, but one of them had been occupied by someone else during the period of Thain's investigation and hesitation.
"For some reason, there seem to be more and more level four and above beings building holy towers in recent years."
"Including some generals in the empire who did not originally build a holy tower, they have also spread the news that they want to build a holy tower. I don't know if it is true."
"At least in the past three hundred years, I have received two level four beings who successfully established the Holy Tower." Schubert, who has been working hard by Thain's side for many years, sighed.
Schubert's words caused Thain to think deeply.
The news he said should be true.
The war with the Gallente Federation is about to begin, and invitations to this wizarding union conference have also begun to be distributed. It is not difficult for some well-informed level four and above powerhouses to catch wind of the civilized war.
In this kind of war between top civilizations, whether the holy tower is established or not, the difference in the final harvest of many existences above level 4 should be quite large.
It is still just the warm-up stage, waiting for the eve of the Wizards Alliance Conference, or after the conference is over.
During that period, breakthroughs by level 4 and above powerhouses should be the most frequent in the wizarding world, and it should also be the time when holy towers and knight halls are most frequently established.
After all, all the peak demigods who are expected to reach the fourth level know that only those who are above level four can have the most basic confidence to protect themselves in the war of civilization.
Below the fourth level, everyone is an ant.
The war with the Gallente Federation was also a process of rapid development and evolution in the wizarding world.
I don’t know what a terrifying behemoth the wizard civilization will grow into after the war is over and it absorbs the resources of the Gallente Federation.
"Master, have you decided where to build the holy tower?"
"It seems that the high-quality nodes among the remaining public nodes are also in short supply now."
"If you don't make a decision early, maybe after a while, even those nodes..." Schubert raised his head and asked.
If Thane succeeds in establishing the Holy Tower in the Ebalut Empire, Schubert, as the leader, will definitely receive a large amount of resources and rewards.
He himself is in the realm of demigod, and there is a certain chance that he will be promoted to level four before the Civilization War begins.
Facing Schubert's expectant look, Thain finally sighed. Under the mask of Wuxiang, he showed a wry smile and said, "I haven't made a decision yet. This water-melted crystal will serve as your guide."
Let’s pay it back over the years.”
"Master, you don't have to be so polite. The empire will also pay me my salary." Schubert took the crystal stone and said flattered.
This is the benefit of being the leader of the empire. Regardless of success or failure, you will receive a large salary.
If you meet someone like Thain who is relatively generous and powerful at level 4 or above, it will be even better news for these demigod level magicians.
This is also the reason why this kind of guidance work is time-consuming and laborious, but many demigod-level experts, even idle fourth-level experts, are willing to do it.
At least in the fields of economics and magic currency operating systems, the Ebalut Empire is at the forefront of the major forces in the wizarding world.
Thain has not forgotten that in the Ebalut Empire, even an ordinary citizen has the opportunity to read magical newspapers.
This magical atmosphere that is beyond other areas in the wizarding world is one of Thain's original intentions in wanting to build the Holy Tower here.
However, judging from the results, there is still a big gap between ideal and reality.
"Forget it, let's go to the Business Alliance Capechi first and deal with the harvest in Faerûn."
"There is no rush to build the holy tower. Maybe I can consider other areas in the wizarding world." Thain sighed.
