【Road to the Sun】19: Crystal Hall
On the Valoran continent, few people know what Reginard found in the six or seven years of wandering in the Valoran continent when he gave up the offer of employment from various organizations and left the gray order alone. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
All they know is—
A battlefield called League of Legends shocked all of Valoran.
An organization called the War College that changed the world.
They didn't know that in those wandering days, most of the time, Reginard had only a long, dark despair in his heart.
A sixteen-year-old boy, standing at the fork in the road of life, his unattainable dream is brutally dragged to the bloody altar by the executioner called reality.
He realized that he had to be strong enough.
He saw the infinite collision of desires after seeing peace in Shurima, and Nasus said that a good kingdom existed only in a mirage.
Freljord was constantly strife, and the ice and snow of thousands of years washed away the blood and dry bones again and again, and they fought for territory for survival, like a group of beasts in human form.
There is no country, no organization, no desire in the Isle of Shadows, there is a peace that is as dead as a deep pool of stagnant water, and the islanders are wrapped in ancient curses. There is no peace in the world of the living, unless they are turned into gravediggers wandering the island, just repeating the process of digging up the grave and filling it back.
He traveled from country to country, only to find that there was no peace in the world at all. Desire causes conflicts between people and countries, and conflicts will one day brew into war.
He found that war was inevitable, but he still wanted to achieve peace.
The peace organization founded by Reginad is called the "War College", and yes, he finally decided to teach the world about new warfare.
A kind of virtual battlefield called "League of Legends". They enter the virtual battlefield through the connection of the contract, and fight on opposite sides for their respective ideas, and the outcome of the battle will become the verdict of the War College.
Fighting is indistinguishable from war in a vast virtual battlefield supported by the War College's vast veins of magic crystals, and Reginard chose a canyon for this purpose, which is the famous ancient battlefield that was used as the original for the projection of the virtual battlefield. Be as authentic as possible and equally fair to both parties.
The only difference with war is that in a virtual battlefield, no one dies because of it.
Because they are just using the projections created by the contract, summoners with the same political views and dreams to fight alongside the heroes they project into the virtual battlefield.
In this way, no soldiers were killed, no innocent civilians were harmed, and no heroes were killed by conspirators.
Moreover, since the ancient times of the Valoran Continent, the constant wars of the magic lords have shaken the world again and again, making this baptized plane on the verge of destruction, like a broken flat boat. The virtual war brought by Reginad can also control the scale and impact of the magic war, and prevent the world from being completely torn apart by magic.
This is the peace that Reginard finally found.
-- It was the peace he found in a world of despair, from a world of despair where war could never be avoided.
It's just that to achieve such a peace, the War College must be strong enough and credible enough. He had to win over everyone, even the dark mages who were called Demonic Sorcery, even the murderous warriors.
He must make the War College the fate of Valoran.
……
The Crystal Hall, located beneath the Ionian Transcendence Academy, is where the original Magic Crystal Vein is located.
Wherever there is a magic crystal vein found on the Valoran continent, someone will mine it, and in the process of mining, a unique magical civilization will gradually develop, and a city-state will gradually form there, which has been the case since the time of the magic lord in ancient times.
But Ionia is an exception, the magic crystal was discovered after the city was built, and it was not mined after it was discovered, but chose to use the energy generated by the magic crystal to build a college on it to cultivate spiritual powers.
This is the same way that Reginald created the War College, and it is a real admiration for the Ionians, who regard it as a sacred place for nature's gifts, rather than an ore with magical energy.
The Crystal Hall was an empty room, the floor was completely transparent, and through it it could be seen the shimmering Magic Crystal Mine below, and the huge hedron exposed the surface of the rock mass, which was constantly emitting a soft cyan light.
Although there is no artificial lighting in the whole room, it is not dark at all, and the cyan fluorescence from the bottom up makes the room feel like a fairyland.
Reginard crouched down, his palm rubbing against the transparent ground, which looked like glass, the material was warm to the touch, and he felt the energy blocked below without any blockage.
"It's jade, it's deliberately polished very thin, and it took a year to make it just by skilled craftsmen, and then it was slowly warmed for five years with spiritual energy to have both today's strength and clarity. In fact, it also has a color, but it is also a light jade color, the same color as the light of the crystal, so it cannot be seen. ”
Reginald gently stroked the mirror-smooth surface, and his heart was amazed. Processing jade is a unique craft kept secret by the Ionians, who love jade and believe that it has spirituality.
In academic terms, jade itself can be used as a carrier of magical energy, and it is different from other gemstones and crystals that can carry magical power. Whenever the magic power passes through the jade, there will be a small amount of energy trapped in it, and it will be full of magic energy under long-term infiltration, but the magic output of jade is also slow and cannot be used for spellcasting, and few people in the Valoran continent develop jade, and if it is used for spellcasting, it is just a stone that can carry a little magic power, so I am afraid that only Ionians who are looking for peace in their hearts like such materials.
"Let's get started." He said, "The psionics are about to arrive, our special training will begin, I will hypnotize them, there is plenty of energy here, and all you and the other psionics have to do is help me build a virtual battlefield." ”
"Virtual battlefield?"
"That's right, it's the same League of Legends battlefield I created. It can be exactly the same as war, except that the people who are killed don't really die, I invented this way and will replace war with it. Reginald's eyes sparkled as he said this.
"That's why it's called the War College?"
Reginard nodded, "A bloodless war has the same effect as war. ”
After saying that, he sat down cross-legged, and the meditation of the East and the West was still very similar in this regard. He unfolded a drawing in front of him, pressed it with paper, and through the soft magic light of the jade ground passed through the paper, the paper as thin as a cicada's wings illuminated transparently, only the black ink lines outlined on it and the data annotations were clearly visible.
This is the plan of the Prestian city wall, echoed by the newly built façade, two of which are stacked on top of each other, outlining a network of fire between the contour lines.
He smoothed the paper and began to explain to them: "I will construct the walls of Presidium in the spirit world, and I will construct the outline according to the drawings, and before the outline dissipates, you must use the energy of the crystal to condense it into a solid body. After everything is done, we use the contract to pull the warriors into the virtual battlefield. It's as easy as you pull me back with a soul seduction cable. It's like they're dreaming, and we're in charge of creating their dreams. When people sleep, blood flows to the brain, we have several times more time than overnight, and they don't feel tired the next day. But all of you here will have to work harder. I'm going to construct most of it, and all you need to do is fill it in. I'm thrilled because I'll be able to command the most powerful army in Noxus in a few moments. ”
The psykers laughed, and Reginad laughed with them, and the magical energy began to gather around him, as if it were stirring up a huge whirlpool on the calm waters.
"Begin, tonight they will face the Iron Hand of Noxus on the walls."
