Iolum used an eleventh-level spell to cut off the bottom of the mountain.

But this seems to have nothing to do with the floating city he mentioned.

However, under the gaze of everyone, Iolum, who had just used the mountain-cutting technique, did not rest for long. Just a few seconds later, he took a deep breath, then focused again, and whispered in a concentrated voice

Another spell.

As the new spell was cast, the magic network began to tremble again.

However, compared with the momentum of the Grand Arcanist's use of the Mountain Cutting Technique, although his new spell disturbed the magic network, it did not cause a direct break of the magic network, and its power and level were weaker.

Very quickly.

The earth began to tremble.

There seemed to be a magnitude 10 earthquake here. The mountains that were cut off at the bottom were shaking violently. Countless rocks rolled down, making a rumbling sound. The dust that obscured everyone's vision was like haze falling from the sky.

Emergence emerges between the fractured earth and rocks.

In the midst of thunderous momentum.

This mountain with a huge circumference at its base was swaying, actually getting rid of the constraints of gravity, and began to float toward the sky.

It doesn't stop there.

During the process of levitation, the mountain began to turn upside down.

It was as if there was an invisible big hand holding it, turning a mountain over like a toy.

The mountain peaks slowly face downwards, and the huge and neat fractures gradually face upwards.

The endless dust that grew up and the rolling stones that fell to the ground together formed a very shocking picture.

Ten-ring arcana—gravity reversal.

After using a ten-ring and an eleventh-ring arcane spell in a short period of time, even a great arcanist like Iolum was a little bit too much. Although he had the blessing of the magic network, his magic power and mental power were depleted.

It was still very serious, and Iolum looked much pale at this time.

However, this is not over yet.

When the hanging mountain flew more than a thousand meters into the sky and the effect of the gravity reversal was about to disappear, Iolum opened the dimensional space with a solemn expression.

A beautiful and huge blue sphere with a diameter of more than ten meters flew out from it.

The core of the magic network.

The most critical thing for the floating city to continue to rise into the air.

Looking at this huge magic network core, Garen could clearly feel that the moment it appeared, the surrounding magic network seemed to become tighter, and the energy circuits that made up the magic network naturally clung to the magic network.

At the core of the net, countless elemental energies seep out from the depths of the magic net and are absorbed by the core of the magic net.

"Good baby."

"It's a pity that it only works with the magic network."

Garen looked at the core of the magic web, blinked his eyes, and thought to himself.

Under the control of Iolum, the core of the magic network drew a beautiful arc in the air, and was finally embedded in the center of the top of the hanging mountain.

In an instant, magical radiance rose from the flat fracture.

The magic runes that had been carved long ago bloomed brightly on the surface of the mountain.

With the blessing of the core of the magic network, countless elemental energies are extracted from the depths of the magic network, wrapping the upside-down mountain, continuously providing energy support for the gravity reversal technique, and maintaining the stability of the upside-down mountain.

A steady gesture between the horizons.

Under the heavy night.

This majestic upside-down mountain suspended between the flowing wind and floating clouds attracts the attention of all living creatures.

The prototype of Netheril's first floating city appeared in Faerûn for the first time.

It is just a floating mountain now.

But everyone knows that as long as it can maintain a stable suspension in the sky, with the ability of arcanists, it will be an easy task to use this mountain as a carrier to build a residential city of suitable size, and it will not even be necessary.

A week's time.

"As an arcanist, you should break away from the shackles of the earth and explore the essence and truth of the world in the sky."

Iolum stared at the hanging mountain, and there seemed to be light flowing in his eyes.

Immediately, he flew high into the sky again and came to a place not far from the silver dragon.

"My ideal floating city will be built on top of this mountain."

"What do you think?"

Galen thought for a while. After thinking for a while, he narrowed his eyes and said seriously: "Stay high and don't disturb the dust."

"With the floating city, you arcanists are almost equivalent to the 'gods' in the main material world."

The floating city is not restricted by geography and can travel freely to and from the sky.

If it is used in war, when Netheril's floating city system is perfected, there will be few countries in Faerûn that can ignore the threat of floating cities. If nothing else, just park the floating city in the airspace of a certain country's capital.

Do you want to fight or not? If you can fight, then after sinking the floating city, how can you resist the fall of a huge city located thousands of meters or even 10,000 meters above the ground?

"God, it's better not to mention this word now."

The Saint has just demonstrated his power as a god in the Eastern Continent and has not yet left. After hearing the word God, the current Grand Arcanist's attitude is more awe-inspiring. However, when the Saint leaves Faerun, the arcane arts will develop further.

Hundreds or thousands of years from now, there is no telling what the arcanist's attitude towards the gods will be.

"Do you Netherese have much faith in the gods?"

Jia Long looked at the hanging mountain, his heart suddenly moved, and he asked.

Iolum shook his head and said: "There are some, but not many."

"Arcanists pursue knowledge and truth."

"We believe that by studying the nature of the world, we will one day be able to master the power of a god."

After a pause, he whispered: "In my opinion, the gods who live in the outer plane are actually arcane masters who master some ultimate arcana."

"Where's the goddess of magic?"

"The magic network you use is based on the maintenance of the goddess of magic."

Gallon said.

Iolum smiled and said: "The Church of the Goddess of Magic has the most followers in Neseli. We respect this god from the bottom of our hearts."

Although I say this, believers are only speaking in comparison.

The Church of the Goddess of Magic actually does not have much faith in arcanists.

But even if there are not many believers, the goddess of magic still works tirelessly to repair the damage caused by the arcanists to the magic network. Is this because the goddess of magic loves dedication and has a selfless spirit? In fact, for the goddess of magic, it does not need to be too much.

With more believers, the prosperity of magic can greatly enhance his divine power.

"Have you ever thought about building a new magic network yourself, separated from the goddess of magic and managed by an arcanist?"

Garen said to Iolum.

The Magic Network is actually a good thing.

Especially for creatures like true dragons that possess both magic and martial arts, the magic net can greatly enhance their spellcasting ability. If the magic net suddenly fails, the natural spell-like abilities and strong physique will not be greatly affected.

Garen thought that after returning to the main timeline, if possible, he would set up a magic network exclusive to the Dragon Clan on the planet Kara.

However, his research on the Magic Network cannot reach the point of building a Magic Network by himself.

So Garen planned to channel Iolum. This great arcanist's magical attainments were much deeper than his. In terms of creativity, Garen was far inferior to him. Garen's spell talent was compared to that of ordinary spell casters.

It's very good, but compared to the level of Iolum, it's not that good.

If Iolum succeeds, he can just copy the homework without having to study it himself.

After hearing Garen's words, Iolum shook his head.

"Creating a magic network is actually not an extremely difficult task."

"In the final analysis, the magic network is just a structure that stabilizes the chaotic and disordered elemental energy."

"It's easy to create a magical device like this."

He looked around, his eyes falling on the unreachable distance, and said: "The real difficulty lies in how to spread the magic network to the entire world."

"If the range of the magic net is not large, if it is not everywhere, then there is no point in building the magic net. After all, the effect of some amplifying magic circles is stronger than the magic net."

"And if you want to build a world-class magic network, it can't be done simply by relying on some great arcanists."

So.........what about the combination of magic and machinery?

Listening to Iolum's words, Garen thought of the network base station on Earth in his previous life.

It seems that similar effects can be achieved using strange weapons.

Compared to pure magic, Magic Weapon only needs enough resources to mass-produce a large number of materialized magic network nodes. It is not impossible to complete the establishment of the magic network on the planet Kara.
