Main God Creation Rules

Even a level two wizard couldn't withstand this weapon head-on, let alone a level one wizard. Until the moment he completely lost consciousness, the wizard was still filled with disbelief.

Similar scenes unfolded in the sky. Caught off guard, the wizards, who had no time to adjust the order of their spellcasting, suffered heavy casualties in the face of the sudden attack from the Earth Expeditionary Force. This resulted in an increasingly chaotic army. With the wizard towers possibly already gone, the wizards had no reason to continue fighting this war. They were fighting for the Dual-Striped Wizard Academy. If even the purpose of the war no longer existed, what was the point of staying here and sacrificing themselves?

Wizards' calm nature allows them to make judgments with sufficient wisdom most of the time. Perhaps mortals have moments when their blood boils and they vow to die for a certain belief, but for wizards, such situations are rare.

Watching helplessly as the feudal army below descended from chaos into disarray, the wizards not only failed to stop them, but many even took advantage of the confusion to flee the battlefield. Only the wizard apprentices, who were not yet qualified to establish contact with the wizard tower, were still trying to maintain stability. However, with the Earth Expeditionary Force unleashing its full firepower, and with the formal wizards losing contact one after another, the wizard apprentices gradually collapsed.

……

Even after the opposing army was defeated and knelt on the ground begging for mercy, and his adjutant excitedly told him that they had won, Zhang Longshao still felt an absurd sense of being in a dream.

A battle that was thought to be doomed, and even if it was won, it would only be a Pyrrhic victory, was won just like that?

What about the wizards?

What about the apprentices?

What about the venom that can easily corrode armor?

What about those fireballs that can blow up a tank?

What about witchcraft that can manipulate people's minds?

—Did the dogs eat them all?

Zhang Longshao's excellent tactical skills finally made him react under his adjutant's urging. Facing the peasants and slaves kneeling on the scorched black earth not far away, Zhang Longshao waved his hand: "Keep an eye on them in batches. Don't let your guard down. There may still be wizards inside. This victory came too inexplicably. Maybe it's a trick devised by those wizards."

That being said, seeing how easily these prisoners accepted their new fate, Zhang Longshao knew that such a possibility was low. Putting aside everything else, based on the abilities those wizards had previously demonstrated, they didn't need to use such a scheme at all. They could have simply copied the fighting methods from the Sixth Invasion Operation and given the Earth Expeditionary Force a hard time. Why would they need to use such a method that resulted in significant casualties? You know, those wizards who were "named" before were simply reduced to ashes by their names. With the small number of wizards, there was no need to go to such lengths.

On the other hand, Zhang Longshao also realized the real reason why this scene might have occurred...

"'The Main God Space'?"

----------segmentation----------

When Eve circled the west coast continent and returned to the vicinity of the portal, two days had passed since the Earth Expeditionary Force achieved its final victory. Footage taken by drones over the "ruins" of the Twin-Striped Wizard Academy had been sent to many people. While the exploration and exploitation of various resources on this continent proceeded in an orderly manner, people also became more wary of this "collaborator."

Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 747 West Coast

Our segment is complete, now it's your turn.

The diplomat had gradually become accustomed to this straightforward dialogue style and immediately agreed, saying, "We will deliver the resources worth 500000 reward points as soon as possible. May I ask if this is on Earth or in the Wizarding World?"

Because of the unique nature of the wizarding civilization, the world was ultimately designated by Earth with the prefix "wizard" rather than names like medieval or feudal. After all, there might be traces of the latter two otherworldly realms, but this is the only world where such mysterious and eerie wizards exist.

"Anywhere is fine, but you've miscalculated the amount."

The diplomat was taken aback upon hearing this, and just as he was about to say something, Lin Yi spoke up.

[The transaction includes 500,000 points, the assembly and firing of the space-based particle orbital cannon costs 130,000 points, and the energy consumption of the Spirit Heart Heavy Cannon costs 100,000 points, for a total of 730,000 points.]

Lin Yi's tone remained unchanged as he met the diplomat's stiff smile.

[In addition to the 30,000 points previously paid for the construction of the protected base, and the 200,000 points exchanged for Griffin's automated humanoid detection to determine the coordinates of the wizarding organization, you will ultimately need to pay resources equivalent to 960,000 points.]

stunned:"……"

Are there any problems?

His face was ashen: "No, no."

On the way back to Earth to report, the diplomat suddenly remembered a condition proposed by the representative of "Main God Space" when they made a deal not long ago.

—We don’t need five million, three million, or even one million. Just 990,000 points are enough for us to wipe out all those who try to resist the rule of the expeditionary force on this continent. What do you think?

"...At least 30,000 points were saved."

The diplomat felt much better after comforting himself in this way.

----------segmentation----------

With a space-based particle orbital cannon spinning overhead, Lin Yi wasn't worried about his "collaborator" defaulting on their debt. He could simply go and get it himself. The only problem was finding a second exploration map—cough cough, the second "collaboration" was a bit troublesome, but that was all. Given the current lack of resources for the main god to recover, any gain was absolutely necessary.

Let's turn our attention back to the continent beneath our feet.

After melting down the only wizard tower on the continent with a space-based particle orbital cannon, Lin Yi made several discoveries while Eve was moving around the edge of the continent.

West Coast Continent—that's the name of the continent beneath our feet. Of course, only the people who live here call it that. For those living in other parts of the world, especially the Wizarding Continent to the west, which is separated by an unknown distance from the records in books, the real name of this land is simply "West Coast," and there is no such thing as a continent.

Admittedly, the western coast already covers an area of ​​over 50 million square kilometers, which is hardly a "continent" even on Earth—the total land area of ​​Earth is only 149 million square kilometers. However, in this world called "Wizard," it seems insignificant. This is evident from the fact that the space-based particle railgun launched earlier had to fly to an altitude of 360,000 kilometers to enter orbit. It should be noted that on Earth, similar low-orbit satellites are at an altitude of 500 to 2,000 kilometers, medium-orbit satellites are at an altitude of over 10,000 kilometers, and geostationary satellites are at an altitude of 36,000 kilometers. However, even with the technological level of the main gods, which can crush Earth, the space-based particle railgun had to reach an altitude of 360,000 kilometers to achieve orbital synchronization. One can imagine how vast this planet is.

In comparison, the West Coast, with its mere 50 million square kilometers, seems rather "small." It's puzzling why a planet with such a massive mass and area still experiences gravity similar to Earth's.

While understanding the basic situation of the West Coast, Lin Yi also roughly calculated the location of the West Coast on this planet by combining the information he had plundered from various sources with the observation data from the space-based particle orbital cannon.

First of all, it is indeed located in the west, and in a rather "peripheral" western region. Later, in the regional division of the wizarding world, it is the far east region, which is also a barren place lacking the birth and growth of wizards. There are many factors that define "periphery" and "core", "fertile" and "barren", including the proportion of mortals with wizarding qualifications, the quantity of various materials that can be used as wizarding experimental materials or resources for advancement, but the most important factor is only one - the distance from the center of the wizarding world: the Wizarding Continent.

Just like the countries on Earth in the past, the closer the region is to the capital, the more prosperous it is. In this wizarding world, the closer the region is to the wizards, the more prosperous it is. As the continent with the most wizards in the entire wizarding world, the Wizarding Continent is regarded as the undisputed center of the world. Of course, this alone is not enough to make it "fertile". The reason for this view is that the various wizarding resources in this world are distributed in a different way.

Centered on the Wizarding Continent, various resources that can promote the growth of wizards decrease in density from the inside out. Normally, the more wizards there are, the scarcer these useful crops should become due to long-term consumption. However, the reality is the opposite. Take the West Coast as an example. As the peripheral area radiating from the Wizarding Continent, not even a single level three wizard has been born. There is only one wizard tower. The extent of this barrenness and decay is evident.

According to Lin Yi's deduction, this situation may be related to the "radiation" that wizards bring, but due to the lack of more effective data, it can only remain a guess... Perhaps things will change soon.

As a peripheral region radiating from the wizarding civilization, the West Coast is not entirely without merit. Therefore, the Wizarding Continent usually sends ships to these barren regions every ten years to collect apprentices with excellent wizarding aptitude and send them to the Wizarding Continent. The vast majority of them die before becoming formal wizards, and a small number of survivors continue to stay on the Wizarding Continent and advance on the path of wizarding. Only a very small number return to barren regions like the West Coast in their lifetime—usually those who feel that there is no future for them.

The former headmaster of the Twin-Striped Wizarding Academy was such a wizard. After returning to the West Coast, he established the academy and then died, but he left behind many records about the Wizarding Continent.

So, does that mean another two years?

Looking out into the distance, Lin Yi eagerly awaited that moment.

P.S.: The previous data was incorrect and has been corrected.

Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 748 Industrialization of the Wizarding World

It must be said that Earth's civilization is indeed quite lucky. Not only were the two active worlds it encountered at the beginning wiped out by Lin Yi without suffering major losses, but also the worlds it entered afterward under the random selection of the main god were all worlds without active energy. Even now, when it enters this world, which to some extent has surpassed the concept of high activity and has the same means of dimensional world travel as the Time and Space Administration, it has entered the most peripheral region.

It's conceivable that if the initial location of the portal had been the Wizarding Continent—or even any continent surrounding it—the problem facing Earth's civilization wouldn't have been whether or not to explore and develop this world, but rather how to persevere amidst the world's counterattacks... Although Lin Yi wouldn't stand idly by because of his connection to his origins, the losses incurred would certainly have been substantial.

Earth's civilization is fortunate in that it has only obtained the "optimal possibility," to the point that even Lin Yi finds it somewhat unbelievable.

After settling the cost of conquering the Western Continent with a hefty 980,000 reward points (during which Earth experienced considerable infighting and protests, but ultimately made a wise choice regarding the "ruins" of the Dual-Striped Wizard Academy—a 3,000-meter-deep lava cavern), Earth civilization, having finally gained control of the West Coast, decided to invest heavily in developing this world. They believed they needed to find at least 9.8 million reward points worth of resources on this land to avoid losses, since even that amount would include 4.9 million reward points as "portal tax" from the Main God Space…

However, the results of the first phase of exploration far exceeded Earth's expectations.

The West Coast, considered barren by wizards, is practically a treasure trove in the eyes of Earth. Not to mention the gold and silver buried underground, the records of rare earth elements, minerals, medicinal plants, and more have already exceeded their highest expectations. Not to mention the "Knight's Breathing Technique" that has been proven to be effective.

Unlike the wizarding training methods found in the remains of wizards or the ruins of dual-patterned wizarding academies, which remain a mystery even after deciphering, the knight training method popular among ordinary people in the wizarding world, also known as the "breathing method," has been modified by the research institute and is applicable to everyone. Even someone who is weak can have an instantaneous burst of power of more than 5t after cultivating to the level of a great knight.

This situation undeniably sparked a massive cultivation boom on Earth, with many things once considered worthless being revived and propelling civilization in a new direction. Some with sufficient resources even applied to cultivate in the Wizarding World to further their cultivation—experiments showed that, given the same amount of time and effort, the cultivation speed in the Wizarding World was more than ten times that on Earth.

Earth researchers unfamiliar with the concept of "active energy" can only attribute it to the fact that the Knight's Breathing Technique is a product of the Wizarding World and is more suitable for cultivation there. However, this has led to a surge in tourism in the newly opened Wizarding World, indirectly boosting the service and real estate industries, and causing prices near the portal to skyrocket day by day...

Of course, these were not things that Lin Yi was concerned about; he was more concerned about the industrialization process of Earth's civilization on the west coast.

With the discovery of various resources, the Earth faction directly tore up the development plan that had just been completed and rewrote a development blueprint centered on the Wizarding World, showing a strong tendency to develop the West Coast into a second "Earth".

The first step in the development of the west coast by Earth's civilization was industrialization.

Various equipment and machinery were lined up from the bottom to the top of Mount Everest. Earth was transmitting various supplies to this world almost day and night. However, the limited area and size of the teleportation gate still caused them great distress. In the end, they had to ask Lin Yi for 200,000 reward points to directly bypass the teleportation gate and have the main god transfer a large amount of supplies to this world, which barely alleviated their urgent needs.

After acquiring sufficient basic resources, Earth's civilization began a vigorous industrialization process on the west coast—the first step being the capture of people.

Just as the United States faced Native Americans, similarly, when facing these alien individuals who weren't even "Earthlings," while so-called human rights organizations on Earth caused trouble, it didn't stop the alien expeditionary force from easily destroying kingdoms and castles with cannons and machine guns, and then providing two options after pulling out the people inside.

Either go to hell or go to the factory.

Even in the highly automated 22nd century, it is not possible to exist entirely without human labor. However, relying solely on teleportation portals to transport personnel would not be enough to complete such a large-scale industrialization process. In contrast, these native inhabitants of another world, who do not require wages or benefits, can be put to good use after short-term training.

Forty-three days after Earth civilization invaded Wizard civilization, the first factory was built on the side of the capital of the Kingdom of Basel, and more than half of the population of the Kingdom of Basel were driven into it to perform intensive labor.

During the 68 days that Earth civilization invaded the wizard civilization, the first official knight was born amidst a massive accumulation of resources. Research revealed that this Earthling's genes underwent positive evolution, and his descendants may inherit similar genes, gaining an innate advantage in the knight's breathing technique.

During the 114 days that Earth civilization invaded the wizard civilization, Earth completely deciphered the script and language of the West Coast. Although the birth and cultivation of wizards were still hypothetical (establishing the idealistic concept of mana was a considerable challenge for Earth civilization, which was accustomed to materialism), the various books and records collected determined the location of the West Coast in this world, as well as the existence of other wizard continents that were much more powerful than the West Coast.

The frenzy of Earth civilization over the West Coast's "gold rush" was like a bucket of cold water being poured on it. After three days and three nights of debate, various military factories and infrastructure facilities appeared in large numbers on the eastern coastline of the West Coast.

After 268 days of invading the wizarding civilization, Earth civilization overcame numerous difficulties and mistakes, and finally sent its first satellite into space. From then on, Earth civilization officially established itself on the edge of the wizarding world.

381 days after Earth civilization invaded Wizard civilization, the first 10,000-ton destroyer was launched, and the number increased to five the following day.

During the 505 days that Earth civilization invaded the Wizard civilization, more than 300 missile silos were built on the west coast, and the radiation attack range covered the eastern sea area, which was almost three times the size of the west coast.

611 days after Earth civilization invaded the wizard civilization, the first aircraft carrier was launched, humanity's first fleet in the other world was established, and it began to carry out training and patrol missions in the eastern sea area.

……

658 days after Earth civilization invaded Wizard civilization, a large sailing ship appeared in the identification zone.

P.S.: Fourth update

Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 749 Second-Level Wizard Caslir

As he left the laboratory built two hundred meters underground, Caslir was filled with emotion when he saw the many stars orbiting the wizard civilization in the sky again after ten years.

Unlike the native wizards of the West Coast, Caslir, a second-level wizard from the Wizarding Continent responsible for the selection of wizard apprentices every ten years, has enough confidence and strength to look down on any individual on this barren continent who is below the third level.

Since he arrived on the West Coast to carry out the academy mission at the Five-Ring Tower, the only wizard on the entire West Coast who has caught his eye is the headmaster of the Two-Striped Wizard Academy, who, with the help of the previous headmaster, completed the remaining half of the main body of the wizard tower, becoming a rare owner of a two-ring wizard tower even on the wizarding continent.

However, such a bizarre scene could only occur in an extremely barren place like the West Coast. Even a second-level wizard who is not even a great wizard is qualified to build his own wizard tower. If he did this on the Wizarding Continent, even if the high and mighty Morning Star wizards did not take action, the great wizards who wander around seeking opportunities for advancement would make this extremely arrogant second-level wizard understand what it means to "keep his wealth hidden."

However, it must be admitted that for a period of time, Castleriel also coveted the wizard tower of that second-level wizard, to the point that he had the idea of ​​simply seizing it or building another wizard tower on the west coast himself—after all, that was a great honor that only Morning Star wizards were qualified to possess, and it was also the greatest reliance for the interdimensional expedition.

Fortunately, just before putting this idea into action, Caslir regained his composure. Unwilling to spend his entire life in the barren land of the West Coast, the wizard ultimately abandoned the idea. However, in order to reach the level of a Grand Wizard and possess the basic qualifications to build a Wizard Tower as soon as possible, this Level 2 Wizard directly built a laboratory underground on the West Coast. Every day, he repeated the same routine of studying, experimenting, and meditating, only routinely searching for qualified wizard apprentices to send to the Wizarding Continent when ships from the Wizarding Continent arrived.

This was his fifth mission. After completing five more similar missions, he would be able to exchange for enough resources from the Five Rings Tower through this academy mission, which has a cycle of one hundred years, to complete his final preparations to become a Level 3 Grand Wizard.

Thinking about the turning point in his life that he would be facing fifty years from now, even a wizard with such emotional control couldn't help but feel a little overjoyed. For a moment, even the anger he felt at the wizards from the Dual-Striped Wizarding Academy for not appearing in front of him when he left the laboratory as they had done before and handing over the magic stone to him according to the "contract" was somewhat lessened.

Of course, in the eyes of Caslir, a second-level wizard from the Five Rings Tower, the so-called dual-pattern wizard academy would at most be a level one controller trapped in that human town on the wizarding continent, and could only act arrogantly in peripheral areas like the West Coast. It was only reasonable that it would fearfully avoid him and the approaching convoy from the wizarding continent.

"Perhaps we should report this to the Five Rings Tower. Many promising wizard apprentices have been taken away by the Dual-Striped Wizard Academy. With their talents, they should be sent to the Wizarding Continent as experimental subjects rather than wasting their lives in such a barren place."

After making "arrangements" for the Two-Striped Wizard Academy, which had failed to pay its "protection fee" on time, the second-level wizard Carlisle concealed himself, just as he had done four times before—not because the wizards were afraid of being attacked, but simply because they did not want to attract the attention of mortals.

Although wizards have an innate sense of alienation from mortals who are on a completely different level of life, necessary protection is still required for the largest source of the wizarding community. This may be ignored by wizards on the west coast due to the huge disparity in population, but it is done quite well on the wizarding continent. For wizards, the greatest protection for mortals is to reduce contact with them. Under such influence, Kalisel has also become accustomed to this practice. However, as he passed over several kingdoms and approached the port city where the ships from the wizarding continent on the east were about to arrive, he discovered a miraculous change in the human kingdoms below.

Metal buildings stand tall everywhere, and huge chimneys rise from the ground. The forests that once restricted human activity on the West Coast crumbled before these metal-made, alchemical machines, replacing them with smooth roads interspersed with metal-paved railway tracks. Like blood vessels, these networks, brimming with vitality and energy, have been built within the body of the so-called "West Coast"...

"What's going on? Wasn't this part of the Kingdom of Basel ten years ago?"

The enormous changes within the human kingdom made Carlisle hesitate. According to the conventions of the Wizarding Continent, no matter how great the changes in the human world were, as long as they did not threaten the survival of the entire human race or affect the interests of wizards, they should be left unattended.

But what's happening now in the Kingdom of Basel... no, there are more than three other kingdoms whose territories are accessible from the roads leading to the West Coast alone. The changes happening on the West Coast are clearly exaggerated, especially considering that this has happened in the short ten years that Kalisl has been "in seclusion".

Kasriel's strong curiosity eventually made him suppress his vigilance, and he lowered his altitude as he approached the towering metal buildings.

----------segmentation----------

As a former member of the Knights Guard of the Kingdom of Basel, Matt's task was to monitor this thing that those "otherworldly people" called the "wide-area anti-stealth detection signal tower".

To be honest, even though Matt had tried his best to absorb the knowledge of those "otherworldly people" over the past year—judging from the situation of many other knight guard members in the same predicament, learning the knowledge of the otherworldly people and helping them was Matt's only chance to escape his captivity—this task was far too difficult for Matt, who had only been trained in aristocratic etiquette and knight breathing techniques since childhood.

Finally, thanks to his improved breathing technique, which had advanced him to become a full-fledged knight, Matt was able to leave the dark and humid metal factory where he had to work every day in a pungent and noisy environment and take up his new job.

As a newly appointed employee, Matt's task was simple: to keep an eye on the tallest building in the Kingdom of Basel every day—a 500-meter-high signal tower that wouldn't be short even on Earth—to check if any wizards were approaching. If so, he would sound an alarm, since wizards had a variety of methods and might have ways to block the alarm, which would require human intervention. Otherwise, he would stay put until his shift ended.

Of course, such work was too complicated for Matt, who had just emerged from a medieval background, so the previous inspector taught him a method.

"If the light is green, ignore it; if the light is red—"

Seeing the button flashing a scarlet light in front of him, Matt followed his first instinct and slammed it down.

"Press it down."

The next second, the piercing sound of sirens echoed throughout the capital of the Kingdom of Basel.

Wizarding Civilization: Chapter 750 The Visitors from the Wizarding Continent

Caslier didn't know how he was exposed, but it was an undeniable fact that the invisibility spell, which was usually effective for mortals, failed this time. As some unknown energy spread from the surface of the towering, sharp building to Caslier's body, the magical energy surrounding him was directly covered and canceled, and it almost covered up Caslier's hovering spell as well.

This sudden change left the second-level wizard stunned. Incredulously, he used his detection magic again to confirm the mortal below, but the feedback he received was unchanged. Apart from practicing breathing techniques, he couldn't even be called a great knight. From body to mind, he was a genuine mortal.

—When did weak mortals become able to threaten wizards?

Just as the wizard Caslir was about to dispose of this mortal and dissect him to find out the reason why he could break the wizard's invisibility, a huge crisis surged into his heart.

The long meditation gave the wizard the ability to sense the danger in this world. When this great sense of danger, which could lead to his death, surged into his mind, the first reaction of a level two wizard was to activate the life-saving magical artifact he had carried when he left the Five Rings Tower.

With a sharp whistling sound as the air was torn apart, the Level 2 wizard, who reappeared at a distance of two hundred meters, turned pale as he watched helplessly as the flesh-and-blood puppet conjured by the magical artifact was sievened by the metal storm. Layers of magical defenses could hardly withstand the extremely dense metal particles for even a moment.
