Atop the ruins of Alchemy City, a brand-new palace was being constructed with an unbelievable speed.
The Desert Dwarves were exceptionally good at building; the palace seemed to be entirely carved out of stone, but in reality, it was created with magic. The mastery of Desert Dwarf Mages over rock and sand was absolutely top-notch on the continent. In just two or three days, they had constructed the overall structure of the palace, perfectly balancing sturdiness and a sense of art.
Hoffman Ironfist stood not far away, watching the palace that looked different by the day, saying to Hake Stone beside him, "It's a pity, the time is too short. If we had half a year more, this place would be very suitable for a new Royal Palace."
Hake Stone replied, "It might not be impossible. The war with the Elf Tribe this time seems abnormal; they don't lack land. Perhaps after this round of negotiations, the territory of Alchemy City will belong to the Dwarves."
