Chapter 1093: Chapter 774: The Establishment of North City
Kana left the Abyss.
Although he is a God, and although there is also a God corresponding to him in the Abyss.
But it does not mean that as soon as he leaves, the Blood War will immediately fall into disadvantage or the Evil God will immediately join the war to gain the upper hand.
The protagonists of the Blood War will never be these gods; they are always present as hazardous existences on the Blood Battle Battlefield.
At their stage, battles are almost entirely to be avoided unless related to their functions, powers, or preferences.
For example, the "Giant God of Stellar Wars," whose divine title includes the word war, undoubtedly possesses related powers.
So, he actively participates in the Blood War.
And on the other side, the Giant Beast that often appears in the Blood War also has similar powers.
However, its rule power is said to be slaughter, combat, and battlefield charge.
This is why these two gods are often seen brawling on the battlefield.
As for Kana and that Three-headed Evil Dog,
Neither of them possesses related rule power or authority, so they are deterrent existences.
As long as one party does not appear on the battlefield, the chance of the other appearing is almost zero.
Kana leaves the Abyss because there are more important matters requiring his inspection.
He arrived at that city.
Close to the towering structure built brick by brick by the Night Watchers themselves—a black high wall known as the "Tower of Trial"—a brand-new city is emerging at an unprecedented speed.
The cold and massive shadow of the Black Tower overlooks the boiling construction site like an ancient Watcher.
Ring Tower City—North City
Here, the Night Watchers are the absolute protagonists.
Though most are new recruits of the Night Watchers.
But here, no one thinks they are weak.
Their strong arms effortlessly hoist thousand-pound stones, their movements precise and tireless. A faint magical glow occasionally flashes through the air for cutting, shaping, or temporary transport.
But more eye-catching are the collaborative Alchemy Creations, steam hissing and roaring from joints, as rock-moving golems transport tons of stone materials.
Suspended Mechanical Bodies with crystal multifaceted eyes scan the building structures with beams; countless metal spider-like Alchemy Creations flexibly climb scaffolds, performing welding, grinding, and rune inscription precision work.
This scene could almost only be seen in areas built by the Mage United Council.
Even in those places, such a scene might not necessarily be seen.
In the past, perhaps only in the Alchemy Empire could such a construction scene be found.
And now, the construction site of the Night Watchers has turned into this scene of magical technology.
And under such construction, the city is rapidly being established.
"Hey, Barn, to be honest,"
burly Toby raised a heavy, cut stone slab solidly onto his shoulder, shouting to a middle-aged Night Watcher commanding a rock golem to transport stones, his voice carrying a hearty laugh.
"These iron clumps and little magical gadgets sure help a lot! Back in the old town wall building days, it was all on the shoulders and back; unlike now? Just a command, and these big guys deliver the stones; those little spiders weld the seams shut in the blink of an eye! With the saved strength, I feel like I could build half a tower more!" He grinned as if the heavy stone slab was as light as nothing.
Before joining the Night Watchers, he was a Stone Mason in a city.
When there weren’t enough Night Watcher spots, he would join the rat-catching team for revenge on behalf of his city and former friends and family.
In times of no war, besides training, he would build various defensive facilities.
This improved his war skills while also honing his Stone Mason craft.
After joining the Night Watchers, he hadn’t expected his Stone Mason skills to be utilized here.
Remembering those days, he actually quite disliked being a Stone Mason.
Perhaps he should focus on this area in the future?
After all, it seems rather destined.
Don’t the Night Watchers often talk about destiny and such?
Not far away, a young female Night Watcher named Lira was concentrating on guiding a magic beam with her fingertips to cut a Rune Stone slab, emitting a faint hum.
Without lifting her head, she responded: "The efficiency has been increased a hundredfold at least, Toby. But don’t underestimate these Mechanical Bodies. Without them handling the precise Rune Arrays and energy guidance nodes, just relying on our brute force... and that bit of little spark..."
A small magic flame appeared on her fingertip for emphasis, "couldn’t erect such a marvel." The beam extinguished, and the stone slab was perfectly cut.
Barn steadily commanded the golems to precisely place the giant stones with a muffled crash, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Alchemy Creations are our extended hands and feet; our power is the foundation. However..."
He raised his head, his gaze traversing the bustling construction site, focusing on the heart of the city where a magnificent building rose straight into the lead-gray sky—a torch-shaped marvel soaring a hundred meters high.
Its base was solid and broad, smoothly tapering upward, only to elegantly flare near the top, forming a spectacular crown as if eternally burning, its star gold, secret Silver, and Energy Crystals shimmering with mysterious and unwavering glows in the dim light.
"... the best tools, the most abundant physical strength, all are for it."
