Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire Chapter 724 - 410: Seducing Augustus, the Goddess’s Plot

"This truly is an unexpected delight!"

At this mont, Noah seed to be amidst a sea of stars, only that each shimring star was an Arcane Crystal Ball used by the ancient Arcane Empire to record data. Within them was concealed an ocean of obscure and esoteric knowledge, each star containing an entire ocean composed of countless pieces of arcane wisdom.

To construct a floating city hovering in the sky, with the capability to move, ascend to the pinnacle of the Sky Do, dive into the deep seas, and traverse between planes, one requires an imnse amount of knowledge. Currently, Noah finds it difficult to summarize, but he knows that if the content of these Arcane Crystal Balls were transcribed onto the thinnest paper, the number of design plans would be enough to completely drown him.

The dazzling sea of stars before him, these constructs of a floating city, were not the work of a single person but rather the crystallization of wisdom from the Arcane Empire of yore. It was the highest achievent of civilization. After the peak of the Empire and its resplendent civilization were extinguished, even the Divine could not bear to utterly destroy it and instead chose to preserve these fruits of civilization.

Now, this fruit has fallen into Noah’s hands. Such an unexpected gain, even at nearly three hundred years of age, fills Noah with imnse delight.

This was a gain beyond expectation. Noah had never held much hope from the Divine, especially from the Elven Gods who approached him proactively. Yet, unexpectedly, after they promised to provide high-end equipnt aid, they also agreed to give him the almost forbidden technology for constructing floating cities.

Noah had, of course, pondered over the intentions of the Elf Main God, but found it hard to guess their true thoughts. Perhaps, because this was only a set of design drawings.

What Ailoran truly contributed in physical terms was rely the Arcane Crystal Balls. Even, in the unlikely case Noah truly constructs a floating city, what does it matter?

The past Legendary Great Arcanists of the Arcane Empire, when facing the Divine, achieved the most by driving the floating city to crash into the Divine Realm, rely engaging in brief skirmishes with the Divine. In the end, the Divine still suppressed the reckless Arcanists.

One can say that a floating city paired with sufficiently powerful spellcasters can indeed cause so impact on the Divine, but it is far from forming a threat. Thus, for soone with Strong Divine Power to use it as a bargaining chip is not much.

However, for Noah who is still in the Material Realm, it may be too overwhelming and shocking, though for the Divine, it is nothing significant.

"A floating city!"

Yet, as Noah gradually absorbed the knowledge related to floating city construction, the initial joy and excitent about acquiring the thod to build one slowly faded away, replaced by a weighty burden.

Indeed, as a mber of the Dragon Clan, Noah naturally possesses the ability to appraise and evaluate. Just by seeing an item, he can estimate its value, even if it is rely a textual description, Noah has a sense of it.

At this mont, as he peruses the construction designs of the floating city, Noah’s mood gradually grows heavy because in his heart, a crazy, rising number is surging up, and this number corresponds precisely to the standardized floating city of the Arcane Empire.

When the Holy Dragon spent eight days and nine nights imprinting all the knowledge related to the floating city into his mind, Noah fell into a long silence.

It wasn’t that with his current financial resources he couldn’t build a floating city, but that he is already deeply mired in the quagmire of war, and in this ti where every mont requires expenditure, allocating funds to construct a floating city, which would be difficult to utilize before completion, is truly too challenging.

"No wonder it was given to !"

As the Holy Dragon who controls all authority, Noah could decide everything based on his own will. Even if he acts willfully, choosing to construct the floating city amidst the current multi-line warfare of the Dragon-man, he would receive only supportive and endorsing voices, with few dissenting voices reaching his ears at all.

But Noah, priding himself as the Holy Dragon, would never do such a thing; he is not a foolish ruler blinded by arrogance and quick success.

"Once the Three Realms are stabilized, build the floating city using the resources of the Three Realms!"

Though it’s eagerly awaited, Noah still set the procedure, deciding to start the construction of the floating city after the phased completion of the war, in the gap before the arrival of the next war.

Evidence shows that achieving secular-level cooperation with the Elf God System indeed brought nurous conveniences to the Holy Dragon Land. The most direct experience for the lower-class people is being able to purchase the Elf Clan’s unique resources at prices slightly above cost.

As for Holy Dragon Noah, he has received from the Elf Clan, one weapon after another that has left its na in history, and all these legendary ancient weapons now belong to him.

"These weapons are indeed good, but not enough."

Noah looked at the Silver Moon Elf below, whose face still bore a reserved smile, and spoke again,

"Not enough? What more do you desire?"

Serena glared at the greedy Dragon Clan mber before her. The current batch of equipnt had been carefully selected by her, with so even belonging to her collection. Yet this dragon, without a single word of satisfaction, continued to demand more from her.

"This is all Elven gear. If my subordinates were human, it would still sowhat fit, but my followers are Dragon-n, and for their size, these weapons are far too petite."
