Chapter 37: One Step to the Sky
There is actually another important reason for the low cost and fast speed of the construction of the Andohar Reservoir.
Cheat.
Zhou Ming stole a lot of power from the magic net by cheating and used it for his own use.
He first invaded the magic net "Blue Power", and at the end of a string of magic power, cut a small piece of his personal "territory".
On this private "small turf", and with the help of the system, he avoided the control and monitoring of the managers of the magic network, and unscrupulously engaged in illegal things such as stealing magic power and doing whatever he wanted.
You must know that the power contained in the magic net is so huge that it can be described as "endless".
If he mastered this infinite power, what could Zhou Ming do with it?
Infinite casting.
For example, the level 1 spell "Azure Impact", which required the consumption of 1 unit of blue power, Zhou Ming could only release a few hundred of them originally, but now?
The power of the entire magic net was at his disposal.
He can unleash an infinite number of more.
Virus.
Viruses that invade the magic web...... I'm afraid that some people immediately thought of this term.
Yes, Zhou Ming is a virus, he thinks that it is too slow to accumulate magic power honestly, it is better to steal the highest authority of the magic network and obtain the same "unlimited use rights" as the president of the "Blue Hand" trade union, Carlo Hisneri.
Not only that, Zhou Ming felt that it was not enough for him to obtain the "unlimited right to use", he was the emperor, and it was impossible for him to work in person, he had to find a group of people to make good use of the vast power in the blue power of the magic net.
So Zhou Ming incarnated as a "helper", selected 100 highly qualified warlocks from the most elite warlock group of the Royal Praetorian Guard Legion, guided their souls, pulled out the soul strings, and finally successfully connected to the magic net.
In Zhou Ming's hands, there were 100 Demon Net Walkers...... After gaining the power they desired, these Demon Netwalkers were naturally loyal to their emperor.
And because these 100 Demon Net Walkers, the connection points of the soul strings, all formed a small "local area network" in the "small territory" of the magic net drawn by Zhou Ming, and they were absolutely controlled by Zhou Ming, so those 100 Demon Net Walkers must also be loyal to their emperor.
In the end, Zhou Ming lowered the "unlimited right to use" the magic power, and in this way, it was completely reasonable for the Andohar Reservoir to be built quickly.
Therefore, it can be said that the completion of the Andohar Reservoir was completed quickly with the support of the blue power of the magic net...... Took a shortcut.
It can also be called "stealing heavenly power for your own use".
It's not very ethical.
Once discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Zhou Ming must come up with a way to make amends and return all the stolen "magic".
In addition, because the magic net walker uses the "soul string" to transmit magic power to the magic net, the magic net will deduct one-third - that is, uploading 3 units of mana, which is actually only equivalent to saving 2 units of mana.
In the process of building the Andohar Reservoir, according to statistics, Zhou Ming stole a total of 16 million units of Blue Power.
Therefore, he and the Demon Net Walkers in his hands must upload 48 million units of Blue Power to the Demon Net to make up for the shortfall.
And with Zhou Ming's daily meditation efficiency, 48 million units of blue power, they will probably have to meditate for 60 years before they can return all the stolen power.
Of course, if all the uploaded blue power is counted as compensation, and only compensation is made if it is not saved, then it only takes 20 years for Zhou Ming and them to pay off their debts.
But Zhou Ming's plan was not to compensate, not to compensate for the strength of 1 unit, he chose to rely on the debt directly.
And is ready to continue to steal the power in the magic net in the next construction activities of the empire, and help the Orunian Empire take off and embark on the development path of "one step to the sky".
What the?
Is Zhou Ming crazy, has he figured out the consequences of doing this?
Once Duan Mi is discovered by the Blue Hand, he and his empire will face devastating punishments and blows!
He was so risky to do that!
It is better to be down-to-earth, take a steady path of development, and be careful of causing catastrophe.
No, no, no.
Zhou Ming just wants to be bold and adventurous, and he wants to climb to the sky in one step.
Because he has three reasons to do it.
One, the magic power contained in the magic net "Blue Power" is too terrifying and huge, almost equal to "inexhaustible".
So how big is it?
If the "Andohar Reservoir" is used as the unit of measurement, the magic power contained in the magic net "Blue Power" is enough to build 10 14 Andohar Reservoirs.
The 16 million units of magic power that Zhou Ming stole from it were really just a drop in the bucket compared to the inventory in the magic net.
Second, the magic power contained in the "Blue Power" of the magic net is almost unlimited, but the content of the "Blue Moon" plane in the material layer, the content of the Blue Power, is constantly decreasing, and even falling to an extremely dangerous level.
The specific manifestation is that the number and proportion of cultivators have been declining year after year, and the number of high-strength warlocks has become scarcer and rarer, and they have continuously entered the so-called "era of the end of the law".
The energy level of the entire plane is naturally also declining, from the initial "high-energy plane" to the "medium-energy plane", and there is a tendency to slide to the "low-energy plane...... Yes, in the determination of the plane energy level of the system, the "Blue Moon" plane can only be classified as the "medium and low energy level" plane.
If the amount of blue power in the "Blue Moon" plane of the material layer continues to decline, sooner or later it will become a "low-energy plane".
What is the root cause of this state of affairs?
The expansion of the magic web.
You must know that every Demon Network Practitioner, in the process of uploading magic power to the Demon Net, the Demon Net has to take one-third of the "fee".
The billions of units of magic power uploaded by hundreds of millions of magic network walkers every day, multiplied by one-third, are the power intercepted by the magic net.
Multiply by 360 days per year.
Multiply that by the hundreds of millions of years that have passed.
How could the material surface of the Blue Moon, which was constantly losing power, not gradually weaken and deplete?
What about the "Blue Power" magic net in the energy layer?
After hundreds of millions of years of power replenishment, although it has not reached the peak state of the "Age of the Gods", it has also accumulated an incomparably large amount of blue power.
At the cost of the gradual depletion of material power, what is the use of accumulating such a huge amount of power?
Mending the web.
Repairs the "Blue Power", a magic net that was severely damaged in the "War of the Gods".
So was the patch successful?
Has the "Blue Power" magic net been repaired?
No.
Not in the slightest repair.
Since energy particles also have the properties of Brownian motion, there are more forces that are polluted.
It's like a tank of water dripping into the ink, and after it is polluted, and then adding water to the tank, the ink concentration does drop, but the water in the tank is still in a polluted state.
Adding water to a tank is never a smart and effective solution.
However, Zhou Ming found that more than 90% of the thousands of broken magic nets in the energy layer were the same as the "Blue Power" magic net, by intercepting the energy in the material plane, replenishing it into the magic net, expanding the magic net, and then intending to use his huge power reserves to repair the missing parts.
The result is nothing but contamination of more pure power.
But Zhou Ming has a completely opposite way of thinking, but a practical and reliable method, which can remove polluted energy and repair the damaged magic net.
And the first step of this method needs to start by stealing a lot of power from the magic net......
