York had read all this in the newspaper, and he believed it without a doubt. Oh, the newspaper also said that the media was also a part of Duke Leo's supervision of public power.
Suddenly, York's dull eyes froze, and he couldn't help but straighten his body. What did he just see?!
York's eyesight was very good, and he could even see the other person's face at a distance where the average person could barely distinguish a man from a woman. Therefore, even though the steamship was still a few kilometers away from the tower, York could still see a figure standing on the balcony of one of the upper floors of the tower.
Because it was too far away, York couldn't see the figure's face clearly, but he could roughly tell that it was a man from the person's black clothes.
"Is that the Duke?"
The thought that he might be looking at the great Duke Leo made York so excited that his eyes quickly filled with tears, blurring his vision.
York wiped away his tears fiercely. He wouldn't allow these damned tears to affect him as he looked at the great Duke Leo …
Feng Chou held a glass of red wine and stood on the balcony that was more than 200 meters above the ground from the tower. He had a panoramic view of the entire Hunter's Lake, and the few towns by the lake shore looked like a chessboard from here.
A steamship with black smoke billowing out of it sailed not far from the north of the base island. Feng Chou frowned as he glanced at it, wondering if he should expand the restricted area around the base island.
Although the steamship was seven or eight kilometers away, Feng Chou could still see the young man who was looking at him with tears streaming down his face. He smiled slightly, very satisfied with the brainwashing project controlled by Qiankun Pagoda.
In the past few years, the believers on Hunter's Island had become more and more pious, and it was all thanks to this brainwashing project.
The wind was very strong at 200 meters in the air, but the Legendary-level Wizard Tower had its own domain, so it was very easy for it to control the airflow. Therefore, Feng Chou only felt a slight breeze from such a high balcony.
Just as Feng Chou was sipping his red wine, the sliding door behind him opened automatically, and a woman in a white silk nightgown walked out.
This woman had chestnut-colored hair and eyes. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her nose was small and delicate. Her lips were thin, but the outline of her face was very clear. She also had a pair of curved eyebrows. When these delicate facial features were put together, they highlighted a delicate and sensitive temperament.
This woman was naturally Gliss. Her usual delicate and pitiful appearance had disappeared from her body. Instead, it was replaced by an experienced and graceful bearing of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
Compared to the past, Gloria's figure looked much more plump and robust. She had also grown taller. Back then, Gloria's seemingly frail body had given Feng Chou quite a pleasant surprise. Her seemingly frail body was actually very well endowed. As for now …
Feng Chou couldn't help but look at Gloria with a fiery gaze.
Seeing Feng Chou's restless expression, Gloria couldn't help smiling and rolling her eyes at him.
Gloria walked to Feng Chou's back and gently hugged him. She buried her face in his black silk nightgown and took a deep breath before gently rubbing her cheek against his back. She looked like a happy cat.
Feeling Gloria's strong attachment, Feng Chou could only helplessly smile. As a mage, Feng Chou couldn't give his family a lot of time like ordinary people. In fact, for most mages, the laboratory was their most intimate lover.
Fortunately, Feng Chou had Qiankun Pagoda to accelerate time, so he didn't have to spend all his time in the laboratory like ordinary legendary mages. He could always spare a few days every month.
Gloria and Natasha didn't have anything to complain about. Feng Chou had already given them far more than they could ever imagine.
Their only regret was that they hadn't been able to have a child.
The more powerful a creature was, the harder it was to leave behind a bloodline. This was an iron law of this world.
Feng Chou gently patted Gloria's hand. She let go of his arm. Feng Chou handed her the wine glass and said, "I have something to do. I have to go out for a while. Help me take care of my territory."
Gloria obediently nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, the territory didn't need anyone to take care of it. The management system Feng Chou had designed was very perfect. Whether he was there or not, the system would operate on its own. Due to the perfect balance of power, even if some important node in the government had a problem, it would be very difficult to overturn the system and shake Feng Chou's rule.
Of course, more importantly, Qiankun Pagoda had installed a comprehensive monitoring system in the territory. On this island, there were no secrets to Feng Chou.
Gloria's identity in the duchy was Baron. She was a member of the House of Lords, the owner of a large manor, the owner of a machine factory, and the owner of an alchemy factory.
She had a lot of power. Chorre, Natasha, Chapman, and the others. As for the management of the territory, Feng Chou handed it over to the professionals he had trained.
The young geniuses Feng Chou had recruited in the early years had begun to step into the master level. Feng Chou believed that in the near future, a group of legendary professionals would emerge under him. After all, they were the geniuses he had selected from tens of millions of people.
Feng Chou unfolded his body and gently floated up. The silk pajamas on his body seemed to have been taken off by an invisible hand, revealing his perfect body underneath. Following that, pieces of clothing appeared out of thin air and automatically covered his body. There was a tight-fitting and elastic underwear, a mithril chainmail, a luxurious leather boots, a jacket that resembled a military uniform, a crown that resembled a crown, a pair of soft leather gloves, and lastly, a luxurious red and black cloak …
This set of clothes was Feng Chou's battle suit. Except for the underwear, everything else was at least a legendary magic item.
After putting on the equipment, Feng Chou gave a comforting smile to Gloria, who was frowning and slightly worried, and then he disappeared.
When Feng Chou reappeared, he was above a bay that was more than ten kilometers long and several kilometers wide in the northeast of Hunter Island.
This bay was like a crescent moon embedded into the island. Around the strait were cliffs that were dozens of meters high. Below the cliffs was the bottomless blue sea.
At the exit of this strait, there was a reef wall that was very close to the sea, separating the whole bay from the sea outside.
This bay was actually the nest of a rather large Naga tribe. According to Qiankun Pagoda's investigation, there were about three thousand Nagas living in this bay. This was not a small tribe among the Nagas, and there were two legendary eight-armed Nagas in this tribe.
The water in this bay was quite deep, about a hundred meters on average. There were many caves at the bottom of the cliffs on both sides of the bay.
