Chapter 844 Arriving At Heaven Port
Chapter 844 Arriving At Heaven Port
—–Heaven Port was a beautiful port city that counted as a fiefdom of the large Ice Tear Kingdom. This place is where many people from all over the glove gathered. There were many ships bringing merchandise from all over the world’s continents. And there were also many ships moving towards such place as well, it was a gigantic place filled with buildings, probably bigger than the previous fiefdom of Orange Forest we visited previously. There were an immense amount of buildings and I knew there was also an Adventurer’s Guild, Merchant Guild, Magician Guild, and even… yes, a Chef’s Guild! I wanted to explore and go see that specific guild because I am a passionate cook myself. The entire port city was so big it reminded me of the massive cities back on Earth. It was so immense that the walls were hundreds of kilometers big enough to sustain all the city and protect it from anything in the outside.
And well, it had to be protected rather well, as the entire city was surrounded by six different dungeons, which were also part of their big income and what made it possible for the city to maintain itself so big and filled with resources to trade with the other continents where the ships came from. From the six dungeons, five of them were the most used, there were two of them that were Rank 1 ~ 3, and the other three were Rank 2 ~ 5! Yes, there were finally Rank 5 Dungeons. I would had been happy to find them earlier, but now that I am a God, it is not that exciting. Nonetheless, I will explore them all in the sidelines using Slime Clones and then conquer the Dungeon Cores and add them to my System, combining them with the other Dungeons I’ve captured. And talking about Dungeons, the Dungeon Points I got from them can be used and transformed into Divine Power, so I am technically earning passive Divine Power from them.
This is why it is important to conquer as many as I can, this way I can get an even greater source of Divine Power daily. Aside from the prayers and all, Dungeons are filled with resources and most importantly, meat. As there aren’t any animals or monsters in my Divine Realm, the meat the Dungeons bring is important to feed all our people (although I let them hunt it themselves and made a slightly intricate system of money and labor, where people work to earn their keep and add contribution to our society, while buying the meat that hunters sell or that I sell too, of course, I keep mine slightly more expensive so the hunters can still sell it at a cheaper price and get clients.
Anyways, the most important thing wasn’t that to be honest. These five dungeons are not within my radar as I’ve grown way too big and strong to care about them, sending my Slime Clones and a few adventurous villagers should be more than enough. What was important was the sixth dungeon, the Frost Tower created by the Frost Queen Venerable, an enormous inheritance made by her to test the future generations that would remain after her death. This gigantic tower is both an inheritance and a massive dungeon with several floors. And it was… in the middle of the ocean.
”Wait, why is that tower in the middle of the ocean?!” Asked Miranda at first, she was the one that always asked questions first and wondered about everything. Currently, we were floating in the skies inside of Fuyu, but she opened the door leading outside. Because the inside looks like another dimension, when she leaves the door open it looks like there’s a ring of light surrounding the enormous icy gates.
”I would like to ask the same question… Erm, Drake?” Wondered Benladann. “Didn’t you said it was in the land? Like… near the fiefdom?”
”I… I have no idea why it is in the middle of the ocean, and around two kilometers away from the port too, wow.” I sighed in disbelief. I do remember that everybody told me the damn thing was in the land.
”Oh, I know why this is like that.” Said Rakasha, accompanying us alongside a few of our friends. “Apparently over the many years since the Frost Queen died, the land was slowly taken over by the sea and the port expanded more and more into the land. Heaven Port and the Frost Tear Kingdom had existed for almost a thousand years. The Frost Tear Kingdoms is after all the result of the Jotunheim Kingdom created by the Frost Queen, as she had unified the entire Continent when she was alive. Over the years after her death, there were many disputes between the landowners, the entire Kingdom was divided constantly into many smaller nations… until we are here. Heaven Port still has the same name as it had back then when she was alive, but it is now a fiefdom of the Frost Tear Kingdom.”
”You’re telling me that they made this Port so long ago surrounding the tower, but over so many years, the sea slowly took over the land until the entire tower ended being submerged in the ocean? Wait, so there are ruins of the old Heaven Port below the ocean?” I wondered.
”Yes, most likely. I never came to Heaven Port as I took off to another continent through a different route. But it seems that there might be more dungeons than those in land. There are sea dungeons, perhaps, surrounding the entirety of the Frost Tower… Only the most adventurous of adventurers would dare go there by now. But look! There seems to be some sort of artificial port constructed in the little land generated surrounding the tower… Oh wait, that’s not land, its ice?!” Rakasha’s eyes opened wide.
Indeed, the Frost Tower generated a passive amount of icy aura constantly, apparently, which froze the surrounding sea a little bit, and people made a small settlement there, damn.
