This deep pit connects all the different sections of the continent of Atlantis, and its area is unimaginable. Even the once-prosperous dwarven capital only dared to live on its edge.
Over all these years, he probably only explored less than 1% of the bottom of the pit, and that was only when he went to intercept the new island. Otherwise, he would have stayed at home in accordance with the dwarven tradition of being a shut-in.
In short, the Dwarf King had to admit that he could only accept his fate and watch helplessly as his precious new island, which he had cherished for so many years, wobbled and flew into someone else's arms, becoming someone else's possession. And he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger...
Damn it, there's a cow!
For some reason, he even vaguely heard a very timely "praise for Brother Niu"...
After spending more than ten minutes adjusting his mindset, the Dwarf King finally slowly broke free from the grief of being bullied. He glanced at the last new island that the royal town had suppressed and sighed.
Times have really changed. Perhaps he shouldn't have stayed at the bottom of the pit waiting for the Dragon King to return. If he had waited any longer, the last new island might have been taken away by someone else.
He scratched his head hard, cursed under his breath, and decided to observe for a while longer. If nothing happened on the new island that had just been launched, he would find an auspicious day to take off as well!
Dwarves, your emperor is returning!
……
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
A light knock sounded at the door. Mitu, who was about to take off her pantyhose, paused, sighed helplessly, put her priestess robes back on, yawned, walked to the door, opened it, looked at the young nun who was bowing, and asked:
"what happened?"
"Your Excellency, the High Priest has something to discuss with you."
The little nun's face was rosy, and her expression was very lively. She bowed again and then ran away lightly.
"High Priest... Oh no, we have to work again."
Mitu reacted quickly, immediately covered her face and let out a mournful cry. After hesitating for a moment, she reluctantly left her direction.
A colorful bird formed from magic essence flew past her and flew towards the little nun who was running away into the distance. Mitu subconsciously glanced into the distance and saw the colorful bird land lightly on the little nun's shoulder. The two of them started to play around, and her originally sullen face gradually showed a smile again.
This is the floating island where the Church of the Goddess is located, a peaceful and serene place, untouched by worldly strife.
Mitu loves this place, but she is more concerned about affairs in the mortal world. Therefore, even if she is reluctant, she will still carry out various arduous tasks.
As soon as she took a step, a dense magical aura hovered beneath her feet like a cloud, gently lifting her forward.
Mitu's gaze swept over the lush vegetation on the floating island, then turned to the approaching Goddess Church, a sense of curiosity rising within her.
She had only been back on the floating island for a short time, and with the arrival of autumn and winter, the demand for apprentices' extradition had temporarily come to an end. She took advantage of the lull between new commissions to come back and rest.
She didn't know what the specific matter was, but it wasn't delivered through the magic network; instead, the high priest had to tell her personally.
Before long, Mito arrived at the church and saw the high priest tending to the flowers in the courtyard.
"Ah, Mitu, you've come."
The high priest put down the flowers in his hand, smiled and clapped his hands, looked at the approaching Mitu, and they bowed to each other.
"High Priest."
Mitu sighed, unable to suppress a resentful expression, and complained:
"I just got back, I haven't even taken a shower yet!"
"It's alright, you still have time to take a shower. After all, you have to be proper when visiting someone."
The high priest smiled kindly:
"If possible, you could ask that person if he intends to establish a good relationship with the Church of the Goddess. After all, he is the new city lord, not as rigid as those guys in the middle level, nor as chaotic as those in the lower level. Who knows?"
"The new city lord?"
Mitu's eyes widened immediately, and she asked in shock:
"Could it be...?"
"Yes."
The high priest, also slightly unsettled, touched his graying eyebrows and said in a low voice:
"A new floating island has been born."
Chapter 356 Titan Version of the Human Cannon
The "Floating Island Family Certificate," which looked like an ordinary stone, stopped vibrating and fell back into Latis's hand. He subconsciously put the stone back in his pocket and looked at the floating island that had appeared in front of him, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.
The simulated floating island was only briefly mentioned as having a diameter of 50 kilometers. In the memories he exchanged, he only built a city lord's mansion on the floating island. Apart from the awkward memories he had with the girls, it didn't feel very real.
Only now, with the enormous island right before him, did he truly realize just how vast an island "fifty kilometers in diameter" was. Even though the island was barren and devoid of vegetation, it stretched as far as the eye could see.
In this primeval forest on a clear autumn day, the air is exceptionally clean. However, even so, the visibility is only about 20 or 30 kilometers... In other words, if he stood here, he might not even be able to see the central part of the island at the end of his line of sight!
The entire floating island is almost equivalent to the combined area of all inhabited areas inside and outside the city of Lundia. Although many of the mage towers on the outskirts of Lundia have already exceeded a radius of fifty kilometers, it took hundreds of years for so many mage towers to expand to this extent!
Now, Latis essentially owns a whole Lundia!
He couldn't help but smile with excitement, but the smile soon turned into a melancholy one.
Such a huge area, how much money would it cost to renovate! Although he earned 10,000 gold whites from the last simulation, even if he converted it all into copper coins, it wouldn't be enough to cover this enormous island! Not to mention, he wanted to renovate it in a grand style...
Latis sighed, turned around with mixed feelings and waved to his teammates, preparing to set up Titan Palace on the island.
Incidentally, this island is large enough to house tens of thousands of Titan palaces, so he now feels rather powerless, like a small ox pulling a large cart.
boom……
The Titan Palace slowly landed on the island under the manipulation of the puppets. Latis, along with Yashutia and Silvershur, stood aside, watching the scene. Although his heart was filled with complex emotions, he couldn't help but feel a touch of elation in their excited expressions.
"Little La, is this... is this the territory we'll be staying in next?"
Silver Hugh, pressing her top hat, took a few deep breaths. Clutching her glasses, which had slipped off her nose in shock, she tugged at Latis's sleeve, somewhat dazed, and asked softly:
"Floating...floating islands? Really?"
"Of course it's true!" Latis, freed from his anxieties about calculating expenses, burst into laughter and put his arm around Silver's waist, saying:
"Since we've already said we're going to establish our own territory, we naturally need a large share!"
"This is too big...!"
SilverShul leaned against Latis with a hint of helplessness, glanced up at him, and muttered:
"Looks like I'll have to call you Lord City Lord from now on..."
Although there was a hint of complaint in her words, she was mostly filled with anticipation. She had been to Herod City when she was a child, and she still vividly remembered its magnificent scenery. The thought of helping to build the future Titania City made Silver Shul feel full of energy.
"What 'Lord of the City'? Just call me husband." Latis grinned and pinched Silver Xiu'er's cheek.
"That's...that's way too much!" Yin Xiu'er's eyes widened instantly, her face flushed red, and she lowered her head, twisting her fingers and whispering, "We'll talk about it later...."
"Okay, then Teacher Yin, don't forget."
Latis chuckled and teased Silvershur again before glancing at Yashutia on the other side.
For some reason, the usually lively Yashutia was unusually quiet. Latis scratched his head and muttered to himself.
Yashutia had been struggling with how to make progress with him before; was she still hesitating about it now?
He had always thought that Yashutia was a very decisive person, but he never expected that she, who was so cheerful and somewhat abstract, would have such little thoughts.
In short, let her settle down and find peace during her time on the floating island.
Latis approached Yashutia and patted her on the head.
……
"With such a large territory, asking for a 100-square-meter alchemy workshop shouldn't be too much of an issue! If that's not possible, 50 square meters will do..."
Yashutia gazed excitedly at the seemingly endless floating island, not hesitating at all about anything related to Latis.
Because she had already made a very decisive decision at the palace: it's just a confession! Yashutia wasn't afraid at all! ...Even if she couldn't think of a confession now, would she not be able to when she was in front of him?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Hmph, how many times has she survived a crisis thanks to her quick thinking and keen observation and judgment? Besides, there is no crisis in front of Latis. How could she possibly come up with a solution when it is more difficult than when her life is in danger?
What was that saying of our leader? We must trust the wisdom of future generations!
Back then, Artemis won Latis's heart with her A-cup, so it wouldn't be a problem for Yashutia to use her C-cup to slightly pry him away!
Everything will be alright the moment Yashutia finishes preparing her offensive and launches it!
Yashutia chuckled, continuing to fantasize about her new life on the floating island.
When she was in the territory of the mage Herod, she was indeed a bit too withdrawn. She stayed in the cave every day and was too embarrassed to talk to Latis. It wasn't that she was afraid of competing with the half-elves, but mainly because she saw how peaceful and friendly they were, and she didn't want to break that atmosphere.
Ultimately, it's because she's used to competing, but when faced with her extended family who are practically like relatives, she doesn't know how to conduct herself.
She was too embarrassed to accept the expansion of the mage territory later, since the cave was just enough for her.
But things are different now! She's planning to confess her feelings to Latis! Given Latis's generosity, giving her a 100-square-meter workshop should be perfectly acceptable!
Moreover, what Teacher Yin said somewhat comforted her, and when the puppets told her that the previous mistress of this palace was also an alchemist while repairing the soul core container, this further boosted Yashutia's courage.
It seems this is the place where Yashutia rose to power!
"Once I have a new workshop, I'll craft a double statue of me and my older brother there, and then..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a large hand suddenly patted her head. Yashutia was startled and, feeling guilty, turned to look at Latis, forcing a smile, and asked:
"Brother...what's wrong?"
Latis rubbed her head, gazed into the distance, sighed softly, and asked:
"Yashutia, you've traveled so far, it must have been very tiring."
"Eh?"
Yashutia was stunned for a moment, recalling her experience of exploiting Cambinash all the way, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Oh no, my brother's here to settle scores with her!
"It's okay..."
She stammered a few words, but before she could explain, she was interrupted by Latis's words.
"Poor child, he can't even speak..."
To be considerate of Yashutia's feelings, Latis didn't stare at her, but instead gave her plenty of space so she wouldn't get too nervous. After thinking for a moment, he walked to Yashutia's side, took her hand, and slowly started walking.
"Since you're already here, why don't you stay here for now? This new island has nothing else but me and Teacher Yin. Sometimes we might get too indulgent... Ugh, I mean, without anyone supervising, we might become lazy dogs..."
