Chapter 1006: Chapter 1003: The Second Teleportation Array
“For now, let’s not name it yet; after we establish the kingdom, we’ll surely have to come up with a batch of new titles, including re-naming the Holy Mountain, the King’s Castle, and the surrounding locations.”
Liszt didn’t have an appropriate name for the Royal Palace in mind, so he stopped fussing over it.
After touring around the vicinity of the King’s Castle and having a chat with Mata, he left to continue inspecting the construction progress of other projects in his territory.
The evolution of the Fierce Earth Dogs into greenhide, whitehide, and goldhide had all been successful—transforming into Intermediate Magical Beast Blizzard Beasts. Although not yet mature, they were ready to breed under the stimulation of the Bloodline Fruit.
What was most unexpected was the failed evolution of the purplehide. Although its physical development had always been slow, its performance in magic was outstanding, having already mastered the Advanced Earth System Magic – Rock Thorn Rampart. It was overshadowed by the greenhide, whitehide, and goldhide in brute combat strength, but it totally dominated them in magic.
Unfortunately,
it seemed that purplehide had evolved into a different species, which could not breed with the Blizzard Beasts, making reproduction even more difficult.
With the current pregnancy of this batch of Blizzard Beasts, the hope of forming a Blizzard Knights Order was no longer a luxury. Following the Mammoth Knight Brigade, the formation of the Blizzard Knights would also happen soon.
The mount problem for the Royal Knight Squad was already solved—Flame Dragon Birds, Fire Ravens, and Red Sparrow Birds all qualified as mounts.
However, finding knights was not easy; there weren’t many young Elite Earth Knights of Fire Attribute and Sky Knights willing to join—Liszt simply could not consider those of advanced age.
But training young knights took time.
As of now, no one had been selected for the Dragon Knight reserve plan. There were only a list of potential candidates, such as Dulontan Red Apricot, Curster Windmill, Hippolyta, and other little geniuses attending the Royal Academy. But these geniuses were still a distance away from becoming reserve Dragon Knights.
Moreover, the Fire Paladin initiative had not yet begun.
Little Fire Dragon Leo hadn’t matured, and it had no interest in wasting magic power to infect a few “Dragon Wraiths”—unlike the traditional Dragon Magic Power infecting White Dragon Wraiths and Black Dragon Childe, which eventually returned the magic power to the dragon, once a Fire Paladin was complete, the magic power would not return to the dragon.
This was a loss-making deal, and Leo was quite shrewd; Liszt couldn’t easily fool it.
Unless the monthly Magic Potion yield from the Phoenix Perch Parasol Forest entered a period of abundant harvest and Fire Dragon Elixir could be supplied without limit, Leo would find it difficult to cooperate.
There was no relationship of enslavement between dragons and Dragon Knights, it was simply cooperation.
Even with the Mind Branding suppressant, it was akin to having an additional layer of a “marriage” ceremony—while the wife could do chores at home and take care of children, if she truly decided to go out and enjoy freedom, there wasn’t much one could do. If Leo did not cooperate, there was not much Liszt could do either, except to offer incentives.
“I hope the Little Water Dragon isn’t as cunning as Leo in the future… Although my first dragon is Leo, I still believe that Formless Dragon Bard is the best.”
Bard was truly very easy to command; only needing a bit of Smoked Grass and putting up with its occasional habit of chewing Smoked Grass, it would cooperate perfectly with any of Liszt’s requests. Traveling through space without any complaints, and its demand for magic power wasn’t great, a bit of Red Dragon Water was enough.
At most, provide it a tender roast cow every few days.
It indeed deserved good treatment.
As for the other dragons, Bone Dragon Vinnie required no eating or drinking, and human souls made her more peaceful; Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan was a drunkard, but now with Emily taking care of him, Liszt didn’t need to worry; Grey Iron Dragon Ornn had needs for food and often needed to replenish magic power.
But once it found a suitable Dragon Nest, it would start producing iron ore.
Mountain Copper Dragon Mata was somewhat unreliable; it freeloading and had a picky taste yet stubbornly refused to produce mountain copper ore—without a mind branding to suppress it, it didn’t have a good sense of Li Si Te and wouldn’t infect the mountain copper ore—possibly also because the magic potion incentive wasn’t sufficient, making it feel that infecting the ore wasn’t worth the effort.
In the end, minerals couldn’t just emerge out of thin air; it still came down to consuming dragon magic power.
Maintaining a dragon to produce minerals would consume countless magic potions, let alone maintaining six dragons… which was now seven dragons.
After several days of inspection, construction in various places was underway vigorously, and there was nothing that needed Liszt’s intervention; the Development Committee was managing Flame Island very well.
Liszt was even too lazy to contract with the Elf Bugs in various places.
One could simply raise the wild Elf Bugs—that was because the Moon Slayers had a method that could stimulate the Elf Bugs to collect and release Cordyceps, so whether they were contracted or not made no difference.
Quickly.
The Magic Guild had made the latest advancements in Elf Bug research; in a growth environment simulation for three types of plants—Earth Bananas, Nameless Flowers, and Bare Trees—they had successfully nurtured the first batch of plants—these plants reproduced asexually and needed to be cultivated in dark, warm greenhouses.

The cultivation was difficult, and the value of the plants was still being explored, but nonetheless, the three Elf Bugs finally had a chance at survival.
At the same time, the Little Water Dragon was still asleep, and Ach had concluded the research work on the soul element.
“Do you need a few days to rest?”
“No need, brother, setting up the Magic Teleportation Array isn’t tiring at all, and for Ach, this is relaxation.” So, under the urging of the Little Sea Monster, the work of setting up a new Magic Teleportation Array officially started.
The starting point was located at the foot of Jade Mountain, only a kilometer away from Jade City.
The endpoint was in the Endless Primeval Jungle within the Legendary Continent, less than a hundred miles from Snowstorm Mountain Duchy—an area with flat jungle terrains, where Liszt had burned down all the trees leaving only charred soil along with uneven muddy ground.
“Heroic Yellow City, Heroic Yellow Plains… One day, this place will become the bridgehead for the Flame Kingdom’s venture into the Legendary Continent, causing empires and kingdoms on the continent to shudder in fear!”
Looking at the barren expanse of charred soil, Liszt felt a rush of enthusiasm.
He called this place Heroic Yellow Plains, taking one character each from the Eagle Kingdom and Yellowstone Kingdom, also implying a deeper meaning of wanting to annex the two great kingdoms.
During the day, he would set up the magic arrays; at night, he would ride the Formless Dragon Bard back to Flame Castle to rest.
In this way, three days flew by, and with a spirited “yoho” in his heart, the Little Water Dragon woke from its slumber, its magic power more robust than ever. Upon waking, it clamored to eat and drink, leaving no choice but to have Ach set up another array to supply it with Superior Magic.
After eating the Superior Magic, the Little Water Dragon let out a satisfied belch and fell into a deep sleep again: “Actually, raising a dragon is quite simple; you just have to keep it well-fed… the worry is that when the Little Water Dragon grows up, it will be difficult to keep it fed.” Like Leo, who often wasn’t satisfied and couldn’t casually indulge in Fire Dragon Elixir.
Once the Magic Array was properly arranged, it was Liszt’s turn to ride the Formless Dragon Bard and, under Ach’s direction, tear through natural nodes to connect the Magic Teleportation Array.
Thus.
By early June, the newly established Heroic Yellow City-Jade Mountain Magic Teleportation Array was officially operational. There was no grand celebration ceremony, only the first group of knights led by Yevich Water Peanut who crossed the array and stood at the foot of Jade Mountain, full of emotion as they gazed at the towering Jade City in the distance.
After two years, they finally set foot on the soil of Flame Island for the first time, returning to the land that would be their country from now on.
