Chapter 41

Half a month later, the coronation ceremony was successfully held in Iron Fortress, and more than half of the dwarves came to participate!

The Dwarf Queen had finally returned to rule Iron Fortress!

Immediately after, the dwarf race began a great integration.

Living conditions underground were becoming increasingly harsh, and several tribes were facing growing threats, so these tribes had already begun moving to Iron Fortress.

This threat came, firstly, from the environment itself!

The magma was gradually increasing, squeezing the dwarves' living space more and more.

On the other hand, there was the threat from some subterranean creatures.

Subterranean creatures are different from surface creatures.

Among surface creatures, chaotic ones are rare.

But among subterranean life, a large number of beings are quite chaotic.

Therefore, Dwarf Queen Ai Wei decided that in the first phase, all threatened tribes would move to Iron Fortress.

In the second phase, all dwarves would begin moving to the surface!

After possessing the Lava Fire bestowed by the great Lord of Flame, the dwarf tribes no longer needed magma and the rare items within it.

Dwarves were originally a race that could survive both above and below ground.

Choosing to live underground before was also because they needed to utilize the natural energy of the underground.

But now, the underground had become dangerous, and they were no longer lacking energy, so naturally, they could move to the surface.

It was just that the migration of the over one hundred thousand people of the eight dwarf tribes was not that easy.

The biggest problem was that the path to the surface was too narrow, and many roads were broken.

You must know, the underground city was over ten kilometers away from the surface.

Therefore, Ai Wei decided to move in batches!

Three days later, the first batch of over a thousand dwarves had reached the surface.

The first to move were the elderly and children among the dwarves, though this batch of dwarves still included over five hundred sturdy dwarves.

They were here to help the Fox race forge weapons.

Every day, these dwarves could pray to the Lord of Flame to obtain Lava Fire.

And then they could start forging!

And in the underground city, those dwarves who had not yet moved were also forging weapons non-stop!

The eight dwarf tribes had a total of about one hundred and twenty thousand dwarves, with elderly dwarves, children, and women making up more than half.

However, there were still over thirty thousand prime-aged dwarf craftsmen!

Under Ai Wei’s orders, these dwarf craftsmen began forging custom equipment and weapons for the Centaur warriors and Fox-men warriors!

Ai Wei also arrived on the surface shortly after.

The dwarf race occupied a corner of the City of Miracles, and they were all allocated quite a bit of land.

Whether it was the Fox-men or the Centaurs, they were exceptionally welcoming to the arrival of the dwarves.

Well, dwarves are always welcome.

Except for having a foul temper, they don't have any other problems.

By the way, their aesthetics are also a bit unique.

For example, Dwarf Queen Ai Wei, who in human eyes would have a beauty score of 101, was considered "ugly" by most dwarves.

With the addition of the dwarf race, the Miracle Wasteland once again ushered in leapfrog development.

Lin Yan’s first saintess, the Fox-girl Qing Ling, was coordinating all of this.

This cute young girl, not yet 16 years old, relying on her most loyal faith in Lin Yan, accomplished things better than many human kings skilled in management!

She was not a king.

Yet she was managing a powerful kingdom in the making for Lin Yan. ===== CHAPTER 100 =====

"This city is truly miraculous."

Dwarf Queen Ai Wei looked at the City of Miracles, which was half-built, and clicked her tongue in wonder.

The scale of the City of Miracles was very large.

Once fully completed, it could easily accommodate a population of over a million.

The design of the entire city followed the revelations given by the Lord of Flame to the Fox-girl Qing Ling.

The City of Miracles was divided into several zones.

Residential areas, commercial areas, and other functional zones had also been roughly delineated!

The city streets were built wide and straight.

Below the streets, the sewage system was also a priority.

The sewage system of the City of Miracles was built quite perfectly; one could even ride a horse inside it!

Even if it rained for several months, there would be no water accumulation on the streets.

Additionally, all sewage from the sewers was naturally discharged into the river that flowed through the city.

But before discharging into the river, several large sewage treatment stations were designed in different areas.

These sewage treatment stations were not like those from before Lin Yan transmigrated.

Instead, they used the power of magic to treat the sewage.

The purified sewage was discharged into the river, while the waste in the sewage was handled by specialized personnel, collected, and incinerated with fire.

With fire cast by magic apprentices, after this waste was incinerated, it would not produce much harmful gas at all.

This was the power of magic.

It could be used to kill enemies, and it could also be used to serve daily life.

Throughout the City of Miracles, the streets were all paved with cement, and the houses were built of stone.

However, with cement as a binding agent, these stone houses were both sturdy and beautiful.

In the city, landscaping was also done very well.

There were flowers and green trees everywhere.

Such a city, Dwarf Queen Ai Wei had never seen before!

Those underground dwarves had seen it even less.

Dwarves do not have high requirements for living conditions.

However, if they could have good living conditions, they would certainly be happy.

The dwarves' residential area was in the north corner of the City of Miracles.

The houses there were built quite suitably for dwarves to live in.

After some dwarves moved in for a few days, they didn't want to leave.

Compared to the dark, sunless underground, this place was like heaven!

The rooms were built spacious and bright.

Each room had a window, and the lighting was exceptionally good.

There were even balconies where one could see the garden-like streetscape outside.

What surprised them even more was that there was even running water that came out with a twist!

This kind of magical thing, they hadn't even heard of, let alone seen before.

So these dwarves who had come to the surface were all incredibly fascinated.

The Lord of Flame suddenly took on a mysterious and unfathomable feeling in their hearts.

This made these dwarves completely surrender their hearts to the Lord of Flame!

Under the suggestion of the Fox-girl Qing Ling, the City of Miracles was, of course, not free to live in.

This included the Fox race as well.

However, the Fox race had long since obtained ownership of their houses through labor.

The dwarves were the same; they could live there first, and then through work, obtain ownership of the houses they lived in.

Although this was a gift from the god, there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world!

If there were lazy people, they would still be expelled from the City of Miracles.

However, now, whether it was the Fox-men, the newly surrendered Centaurs, or the dwarves, there were not many lazy people. ===== CHAPTER 101 =====
