Port Nyanzaru had leveled twenty-seven mountain peaks so far.
All these peaks stood over ley line nodes. Outsiders were baffled by Soren's actions, unable to understand why he would flatten perfectly good mountains. But Port Nyanzaru's leaders knew that even more astonishing secrets lay beneath those leveled peaks. Underground, the Church of Port Nyanzaru had been secretly preparing something all along. For Soren, the most important thing during the Time of Troubles was defense. As long as he endured until it ended, he could return to his own God's Realm. At that point, few things in the entire multiverse would be able to threaten him.
All the leveled peaks could be converted into spatial beacons.
Goria had already cultivated her own core of followers within the Witches' Council, and the portals could draw on the power of the [Elemental Furnace]. This effectively served as a temporary substitute for the powerful mythal owned by the Witches' Council. Once Port Nyanzaru's entire development plan was complete, Goria could preside over its center and open portals to every part of Port Nyanzaru Island. The golem army currently being assembled could then reach any battlefield immediately.
Of course.
This was only a simple beginning!
Soren's ultimate goal was to complete the "interspatial teleportation strike plan" and the "interplanar teleportation strike plan"!

At that point, even a deity's church would struggle to stand against him, wouldn't it?
When the Arcane Empire waged war against the Abyss and the other Lower Planes, it relied on precisely this extraordinary capacity for reinforcement. A Floating City served as the central command system, using portals
