Magic Industrial Age.

Chapter 380 378: The Empire Takes Action (Subscription Request)
You have to admit that today's Xianhualing has already stepped out of the initial stage of the magic energy industry, has a certain amount of industrial accumulation, and even has some impressive mechanical products.

These factories are basically concentrated in the industrial area west of Brussels.

This is the core of the Flower Industry, no doubt about it.

Therefore, it is best for new cities to be built based on industrial zones so as to make the most of these advantages.

There is a large piece of vacant land to the southwest of the industrial zone. With a little preparation, we can lay the foundation and build a new city.

At that time, it will be able to share the population housing and living pressures of Brussels, and also ensure the development of industrial zones to the greatest extent.

Once this city is built, the population of the old city will inevitably decrease significantly, and it will then be much easier to carry out rectification, repair and construction.

It can be said that this location is most conducive to the development of the magical energy industry in Flower Territory, and can also make the most of the core position of Brussels City.

As for the disadvantages, there are some!

For example, if a new city is built downstream of an industrial area, the problem of water pollution must be taken seriously.

Otherwise, subsequent urban water supply will be a big problem.

For another example, the construction of this city still relies on the old city and industrial zone, and has not broken away from the original cage. The title of a so-called modern magical city is always a little lacking.

As for the second option, north of Siren Port, facing the sea, under the Dome Mountains, there is also a vast flat area.

One of the advantages of building a city here is convenient transportation!
Industrial development is about sharing what is available, but if you want to share what is available, you must have sufficiently developed roads.

If you want to be rich, build roads first. This is true!
This is a natural harbor, which can become an excellent stopover with a little construction. If it develops southward, it can also include the Siren Port.

Although the railway does not pass through here, it won't take long to lay it here as long as we find a fork in the road.

To the north of here is the Dome Mountains, and the mining and transportation of stone is relatively simple.

At the same time, developing industry here is also the most convenient way to access foreign capital.

To the west is the Kingdom of Sardinia, to the southwest you can reach the Bonaparte Empire, and after a circle you can reach the coast of the Habsburg Empire.

In the future, all kinds of products produced here can be directly loaded onto ships and then shipped to various parts of the Old Continent by sea, which is simple and convenient.

Don’t think this is a big deal, transportation is a big part of the cost. Many products have low production costs, but the shipping cost is more expensive than the product itself.

Of course, the disadvantages of building a city here are also obvious.

It is too close to the sea, and if a war breaks out, the city will be under the guns of enemy warships.

Therefore, a large number of artillery batteries must be built along the coast to house magic cannons with sufficient range.

Secondly, if we build a city here, we will really be starting from scratch, which will be more expensive and costly than outside the industrial zone.

To be honest, Luo Yi thinks that both options are good and both are suitable for receiving flowers.

If we wait for the magic industry to develop further and Flower Territory truly enters the industrial age, it will be easy to build cities in these two places.

But now, it is really difficult for him to make a choice.

Fortunately, this is only a preliminary plan. The big designers have not returned yet and are still conducting investigations. We will wait until they come back and come up with a specific plan.

Luo Yi is not in a hurry about this matter, and there is no need to be in a hurry!
And when the time came to the end of July of the 314th year of the New God Calendar, news finally came from the Bosnia Province, breaking the damn silence.

Because the Habsburg Empire took action!

……

An old castle in Saraj, Bosnia Province.

Boom boom boom!

Under the cover of artillery fire, the colorful defensive force field began to crumble. It only held on for a moment before it could no longer hold on.

With a bang, the defense field was completely shattered, and the aftermath of the explosion stirred up countless dust, spreading outward like a sandstorm.

However, the roar of the magic cannons never stopped, as if it would not stop until the castle was bombed into ruins.

However, as the smoke and dust spread, the howling of wolves was heard, one after another, getting closer and closer, and countless black shadows could be vaguely seen moving around.

Even the well-trained artillerymen were a little panicked at this moment. It was not until the horn sounded that all the artillerymen retreated in panic, and even the magic cannons seemed to be abandoned.

Just as they left, a black shadow emerged from the smoke and dust.

They were all dark werewolves covered in black hair, standing upright, with red eyes covered in madness.

The big mouth with fangs was panting, with saliva flowing down, as if it was about to choose someone to bite.

It was visible to the naked eye that these dark werewolves were increasing in number and densely packed. There were even high-level werewolves that were three meters tall with muscles and tendons as twisted as the roots of an old tree.

But the dark werewolves are not all, in addition, there is also a demon army that appears like an army.

These devils are over two meters tall, with dark red skin, horns on their heads, and wearing hell armor. They hold long swords in their hands and have folded wings behind them.

The rich power of hell seemed to roll into clouds, spreading out, and even created the illusion of Baator Hell.

Compared to the demons, they are much more orderly. The way they move forward gives the illusion that they are one person.

The oppressive feeling that comes at you is indeed not comparable to that of the demon army.

That’s not all, as a legion of undead skeletons have entered this land.

The most numerous were skeleton warriors, holding bone shields and long swords, with soul fire burning in their empty eye sockets.

Of course, although these skeleton warriors are not afraid of death, their strength is relatively weak.

But when various skeleton monsters appeared, because of their huge size, every step forward would crash into the buildings of the castle.

In the sky, a group of bone birds harnessed the power of death, flapping their bone wings and emitting sharp screams. Above them, a huge shadow flashed by, and it turned out to be a bone dragon flying by.

At this time, the center of the castle had already been flattened, revealing a huge open space.

After sufficient preparation, three huge altars were built.

From the altar down, there were densely packed mortals, young and old, male and female. They were all pressed to the ground, kneeling on their knees, leaning forward, and knocking their heads to the ground.

Their necks were cut open, and they died with their eyes open, but that did not stop their blood from flowing out along the gullies on the ground and gathering under the three altars.

And as far as I can see, at least thousands of people died in this way.

The three huge altars are used to sacrifice the lives and souls of tens of thousands of people, and they respectively connect to the dark abyss, Baator Hell and the underworld of death.

Then, in the center of the three altars, stood an old man with white hair and beard.

He was wearing a black robe, and the magic wand in his hand was made from the spine. There was an eyeball embedded in the top of the wand, emitting rich hellish power, and his open pupils seemed to be burning with endless hellfire.

At this time, seeing the three altars completely opened, the void tore open cracks, and the unbearable dark army poured into the castle.

The old man finally burst into a crazy laugh!

"Hahahahaha, it worked! It finally worked!"

"Come on, come on, everyone! You thought you had captured our Serb base, but this is a trap we set."

"The hunter and the prey swap roles. Isn't it interesting?"

"Die! Die! The destruction of the Imperial Legion will herald the revival of the Serbs."

He seemed a little out of his mind, or maybe he had been suppressed for too long and looked crazy after achieving his goal.

But at this moment, a loud voice sounded: "So, this is all the means of your 'Serbian Renaissance Front'?"

The crazy old man suddenly looked up and saw that there was a person in the air in front of him.

This is a middle-aged man who looks to be only in his forties, with black hair, a resolute face, a high nose bridge, and sharp eyes.

He was wearing a black imperial military uniform, which was well-cut and well-designed, and it made his figure look tall and handsome.

He just stood in mid-air, without any leakage of fighting spirit or magic power. He just stood there in the void, making people unpredictable.

He looked down at the crazy old man as if he was looking at an ant, and heard him say, "If I'm not mistaken, you were once the chief court wizard of the Kingdom of Bosnia.

Back then, it was you who ran away with the baby prince, right? "

"it's me!"

"If you've escaped, why are you coming back? You should know that if you come back you'll die!"

“Hehehe, now it seems that you are the ones who are going to die!”

"us?"

The imperial soldier raised his head slightly and smiled coldly: "I just want to see what tricks you can come up with?

But I didn't expect that after all this time, I would summon this garbage!"

"It's ridiculous. What on earth was I expecting? What kind of background can a small Princip family have?"

The crazy old man looked extremely ugly, and he shouted almost hysterically: "You are powerful, and your army of the Habsburg Empire is powerful, but now, it seems that you are going to be wiped out?"

"Total annihilation? Haha, it just hasn't started yet!"

As the imperial soldier said this, he suddenly drew out the rapier from his waist. There was still no fluctuation of fighting spirit on his body, but on the rapier, there seemed to be a cold air condensed like a polar glacier.

Then, he just casually drew his hand, and the sword light surrounded his body and formed a circle.

The next second, the circle expanded outward, expanded, and expanded again, until it completely destroyed the three summoning gates in mid-air.

Wherever the sword flashed, ice spread and space shattered, but it took a long time to recover.

At this moment, the three space gates exploded due to structural damage. Three mushroom clouds of fire rose in the air and the aftermath suddenly spread in all directions.

But the imperial soldier still stood in mid-air, motionless.

He even swung his sword again to help the crazy old man block all the aftermath.

When the aftermath faded, the crazy old man raised his head and asked his puzzled question: "Why did you save me?"

"Of course, you have to let yourself see your own failure!"

Taking the altar's explosion as a signal, the Imperial Legion finally launched an attack.

The imperial mages put up shields for every soldier to protect them from the harm of dark magic.

The imperial soldiers at the front, each holding a Maxim magic heavy machine gun, charged forward.

Flames spurted out of the muzzle, and the bullets seemed to form a metal storm, turning all living things within the range into sieves.

Whether it is the agile dark werewolf, the orderly devil, or the skeleton warrior who has died once,

They all fell down like wheat being cut!

Not to mention that in the distance, the roar of cannons sounded again, accompanied by the shaking of the earth, the collapse of the castle, and the destruction of countless dark creatures.

This is the fighting power that the Imperial Legion should have!
