Chapter 87: Digestion
For dragon eggs, Du Shen actually didn't care much. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoDragons are powerful and have a long lifespan, but the time it takes for their cubs to grow is just as long. If you want to be useful, it will take decades to protect and cultivate.
Du Shen believes that instead of wasting so much time and energy, it is better to focus on oneself or seek a magic weapon.
However, after communicating with the film, Du Shen's mind changed. According to Ying, although the dragon egg has lost most of its activity and can no longer hatch normally, it is just used to make the best demon.
After the exchange, Du Shen felt that the demon in the shadow's mouth was more like an alternative magic weapon. Du Shen couldn't help but be overjoyed. Compared with the complex structure of witchcraft and magic, or artifacts are more adaptable in different worlds. Du Shen then decided to keep the dragon egg for himself.
Compared to earlier, for Du Shen's advice on how to make demons, Ying can be said to know everything and say everything. However, after listening to a tirade, Du Shen was left with a mush.
Du Shen then found Megan and asked him for advice. After some conversation, Meghan said: She is very unfamiliar with the laws, secret methods and materials mentioned by Du Shen. It's not that I haven't had much contact, but I've never heard of it.
Du Shen realized from this that there was a serious disconnect between the knowledge imparted by Ying and the knowledge learned by wizards at the moment. The reasons for this are that nouns and titles change due to the passage of time, and there is also a lot of knowledge that is directly lost.
Du Shen did not give up easily. According to Ei's description, the demon made from dragon eggs has great potential, easy to improve, and quick results. Du Shen decided to use other wizards to achieve his goals.
Du Shen quickly remembered the Profound Hut mentioned in the plan Garrison left behind.
The Profound Hut, also known as the Knowledge Hut, is a rather peculiar wizarding force. The location of the House of Knowledge is very secretive, and few people have known about it for thousands of years. Garrison's ancestors also bumped into them by chance.
Wizards are mostly secluded. The wizards of the Knowledge Hut are especially serious. As early as ancient times, when the temple had not yet emerged, the name of the Knowledge Hut was faintly spread among wizards. But from ancient times to the present, the wizarding world has only heard of its name, and it is difficult to prove the truth.
It is said that the people of the Knowledge Hun are particularly keen to collect all kinds of knowledge, and the members of the hut are very knowledgeable university scholars. They seem to be particularly indifferent to fame and fortune. In the wizarding world, I have never heard of them exchanging knowledge with others, and I have never heard of them being involved in any conflicts of interest.
According to Garrison's plan, Teresa would have to take over the Knowledge Hut sooner or later. After all, in the modern era when witchcraft is about to be cut off, the importance of the hut of knowledge is becoming more and more prominent.
At this time, because of the dragon egg, Du Shen believes that the order of acceptance of the knowledge hut can be advanced.
Having said that, Du Shen didn't plan to act immediately. In the plan Garrison left behind, there is a brief reminder that the Knowledge Hut is very difficult to subdue.
Whether it's the Hut of Knowledge, or other wizarding forces. The stronger the Shadowkeep's own strength and power, the easier and quicker it must be to subdue. Therefore, Du Shen planned to stay in the Ring of Stars for a period of time. On the one hand, digest the gains from the treasure house, and on the other hand, rectify and strengthen the star ring, as an arm.
The deaths of several elders stirred up a little ripple and undercurrent in the star ring. Megan has accumulated a lot of power, and slowly dissipates it.
The day after gaining allegiance, Du Shen asked Meghan to pick out a few henchmen. Du Shen asked a few people to use space props and carry a pair of tidal gates to the south to find a new base camp.
Du Shen told the people of the Star Ring: Because of the recovery of the world, in the depths of the vast wasteland in the south, a large area of land has actually returned to normal. Du Shen claimed that the land to return to normal should be at least hundreds of kilometers in radius. It is vast and surrounded by a long wasteland, which is suitable for wizards to thrive and live.
Du Shen really didn't lie. In the far south of the continent, there is indeed a continuous stretch of land, which has returned to normal from the wasteland. The area is estimated at three or four hundred thousand square kilometers. The land is bordered by the sea to the east and south, and is separated by a wasteland belt hundreds of kilometers wide to the north and west.
In the previous life, the wizarding forces led by Teresa established a kingdom belonging to wizards in that land. Unfortunately, the dangerous seas and vast wasteland have saved the wizarding nation from being invaded by armies sent by other forces. However, it also greatly restricts its own development, and the population has always been difficult to grow.
In the end, not long after the founding of the country, Teresa and others were destroyed due to the suppression of the temple and the invasion of the apostles of the evil gods.
In fact, even if Du Shen does not assign people to search. In a year or two, there will be other wizards who stumble upon that fertile land and slowly spread the word in the wizarding world. What Du Shen is doing now is only slightly accelerating the development of history.
Of course, when Du Shen assigned personnel, he also took the opportunity to propose to Megan and others to establish a kingdom belonging to wizards in the new land.
The crowd in the Star Ring looked very excited. Frida and the others have just set off, and the authenticity of the news has not yet been confirmed. Many people have already discussed and planned for the future.
Also, the wizards have been hiding in Tibet for nearly a thousand years. Who does not yearn to live freely and safely on the earth?
The star rings under your feet may be blessed. But the normal land in the wasteland center is really small. Although wizards are extremely resistant to the energy of the wasteland, they will also be adversely affected if they are too long. So, not only the townspeople, but also the official wizards, staying in the Star Ring can't help but feel like they're trapped in a large prison.
Now that they heard that they could live in peace in the wider land, it was no wonder that the elders of the Star Ring were so excited.
While waiting for Frida and the others to find new land, Du Shen wasted no time. On the one hand, he drank a lot of amber wine, and on the other hand, he often went out to collect pseudo-divine powers.
As for Teressa, under Du Shen's suggestion, various competitions were constantly held. Some of these activities are aimed at official wizards and some are aimed at apprentices. The prizes of the event are, of course, various equipment from the treasure trove.
Du Shen's move is intended to select talents and strengthen the strength of Star Ring. But more importantly, it is to establish Teressa's status. Meghan is also very knowledgeable, and spontaneously weakens her sense of existence and deliberately highlights Teresa's authority.
In this way, after more than a month of activity, everyone in the Star Ring already knew that Teresa had become their new monarch, and gradually accepted it from the bottom of their hearts.
On this day, everyone in the Star Ring is holding another party. It's a far-fetched name, but who cares? As for the bearer of the banquet, it is naturally Du Shen. This move is also to buy people's hearts.
When he left Jinsha City, Du Shen once took the time to collect the treasures stored in the depths of the mine. Therefore, in the short term, Du Shen and Shadow Castle will not be short of funds.
The banquet starts at noon and lasts until late at night. It was just evening, and suddenly an accident happened. The wizard in charge of keeping an eye on the teleportation system hurriedly approached Megan to report that it was possible to find an enemy invasion.
At the beginning, after Du Shen attacked the town. Meghan strengthened the ring's early warning capabilities the next day. To this end, she also took out treasures that could transmit messages over long distances and equipped them with wizards who patrol the forest.
Now that the wizard has called the police, it is Meghan's strengthened system that comes into play.
Megan didn't dare to slack off, and immediately reported it to Du Shen. Du Shen immediately asked her to gather people. Du Shen personally led the way and entered the wasteland area to meet the enemy.
Stepping into the wasteland area, Du Shen and the others failed to find the enemy for a while. Later, a wizard patrolling the forest came back and forth. Under their fingerprints, Du Shen and the others caught up with the fleeing enemy.
There were only five enemies. The armor and weapons they were equipped with belonged to the temple at a glance. Du Shen and others immediately launched a round-up. Five enemies, very strong. Four of them are all high-ranking knight captains. There is one person left, whose physical attributes are slightly worse, but who belongs to the elemental envoys. The attacks he sent out were stronger than the others.
Although the enemy is strong, it is a pity that the number is too small. Without the help of Megan and others, Du Shen drove the ghouls, and it didn't take long to take down the five people.
The five enemies are extremely stubborn. Because of the fierce resistance, when he was taken by the ghouls, he was seriously injured. The wizards tried to press for information. Before much information could be extracted, the five Temple disciples were discouraged.
According to the information that came out of the questioning. Du Shen learned that the five Temple disciples were here. It has a lot to do with Du Shen.
It's not that the ring has been exposed. These five Templar disciples are actually here to track down the Lich King's tracks. In the last three or four months, Du Shen had often collected pseudo-divine power hundreds of kilometers in the vicinity. Because it is too frequent, it always stays in a relatively small area. He naturally attracted the attention of the temple.
The area of the Manluo world is very large, and the cultivation of the core strength of the temple is relatively difficult, and the people of the temple gate need to deal with a lot of affairs, so they are naturally very busy. The location of the rings is a remote edge area. If it weren't for the proximity, the temple people wouldn't have remembered to check it out for a while.
However, due to the Lich King's activism, a core of the Templar was sent here. In the case of a fruitless pursuit of the Lich King, the team naturally remembered the blessed land of the Star Ring.
Just in case, the temple's tracking team sent someone to scout the ring. Unexpectedly, although they failed to find any trace of the Lich King, the five Templars actually found that there were wizards who had returned to this land.
The five Temple disciples saw the castle and the town from afar. They immediately turned around and tried to return the message. In the end, he was stopped by Du Shen.
The five enemies are dead, but Meghan and the others are getting more and more nervous. Apparently, the people of the Temple had begun to pay attention to the land of the Star Ring. The disappearance of the five enemies will inevitably attract the attention of the tracking team. It was only a matter of time before the rings were exposed.
Meghan immediately consulted with Du Shen and advocated an immediate transfer. However, it is not so easy to transfer. The key is the townsfolk and wizard apprentices. Their physique is poor, and if they cross the wasteland on their own, they will inevitably damage their bodies.
In the past, Transwarp transported ordinary people by relying on special cages. The cage is insulated from radiation damage. Star Ring mainly relied on manpower, and it took a long time to gradually transport a large number of ordinary people here. Nowadays, if you want to move in large numbers at once, you can't do it at all.
In the end, Du Shen persuaded Megan to stick to it for the time being. Because, he thinks, Frida and the others should be about to find a new land. When the time comes, when Frida and the others build the Tide Gate, the transfer will become relatively easy. Moreover, it will take time for the temple to discover the star ring and mobilize people to encircle and suppress it.
