Chapter 46: Introspection and the Pool of Mana
The monsters in the center of the Night Forest are indeed just goblins.
For the current Sivi, even against the giant goblin (crusade level 14), which is known as the strongest attack power among the goblins, it is not impossible to win.
But here's the problem...... There are so many Nima!
The camp in the [Night Forest Center] dungeon was still the same as usual, but this made Xiwei paralyzed, and as in the outer or deep forest, he grabbed the supplies and walked directly to the beast path in front of him.
As a result, the beast path was only a few meters long, and then there was a circular open space that seemed to be specially made, with a diameter of one or two hundred meters, as flat as the Colosseum, and in the middle of the open space was an ancient ruin that resembled some kind of breaking through the ground, a corner about three meters high.
However, in this not-so-huge clearing, there were hundreds of Goblin Elites, more than thirty Goblin Spellcasters, Ten Goblin Chargers, and an equal number of mutant Goblins.
If this kind of lineup is just a headache for Sivi, then standing at the top of the ruins, the magic equipment that exudes a gorgeous magic halo on his body and hands, and a brave goblin that looks like a dragon arrogant, makes Sivi Egg hurt - it is a monster with a full level 12 crusade.
I didn't expect this kind of monster to appear only in stories told by troubadours.
If it's one-on-one, Xiwei is sure enough to deal with the other party without damage: no matter how sophisticated those magic equipment is, even the guys who can't hide the magic halo on it will definitely not be able to exert their true power, not to mention that the special effects of many equipment can be inferred from the color and brightness of the magic halo......
At that time, Sivi, who was used to playing the lawn mowing game of "True Warriors", still had a hint of wanting to use quality over quantity, and in his thoughts, as long as he could deal with the brave goblins first, these miscellaneous soldiers should also disperse automatically.
But after falling into the Goblin Sea, he realized how terrifying the power of the People's Ocean was.
The weapon attacks of the goblin elites were naturally ignored by him, but it was these scum who were only level 3 that blocked Sivi's mobility range with their numbers, and then came the goblin casters' secondary fireball spells, ice bullets, sand balls, free electric eels and other one-ring magic. And it's still raining in all directions!
That's not all, the magic of the mutated goblin is obviously stronger than that of the goblin caster, and the magic mixed with those raindrops makes Sivi unguardable.
Even if he managed to break through the blockade of the elite goblins at great cost, and when he rushed towards the brave goblins, those goblin chargers riding porcupines swept in again.
The Goblin Charger, who can fight both near and far, and has good mobility, puts Sivi in a bitter battle again, and is once again swallowed up by the elite Goblin Sea in the rear......
It was only after the end of the day that the brave goblin made a move, and the magic power and potions were exhausted, and the head of Sivi, who was covered in bruises, was cut off with a sword.
Actually dying at the hands of a goblin is, in a sense, a great shame.
However, Sivi doesn't have much frustration and shame now, except for regretting a month's lifespan and not being able to get the S-level evaluation of the Forest Center, which is probably the so-called dead and dead get used to it......
However, the problems exposed in this battle are also worth thinking about.
The first is the lack of protection.
If the defensive magic that Sivi knows now is the two-ring all-round defensive magic shield, then I believe the outcome of this battle will be much better. Although the magic barrier can strengthen the defense according to the amount of mana, but after all, it can only protect one side too much, and that kind of magic attack like rain can't withstand it at all, not to mention a group of elite goblins with spears who are always thinking about stabbing him.........
Then there is the lack of mobility.
Originally, Sivi wanted to use that Technician Crystal to learn the wind element, and he continued to point to the magic of levitation, which is very practical. However, when he discovered that there were many spells in the Second Ring that were far more effective than levitation, he abandoned this plan and activated other spells. At this time, Sivi regretted it so much that his stomach was blue - if he could fly, he didn't need to rush left and right in that group of elite goblins, as long as he flew into the sky, including those goblin chargers who were level 7 in the crusade, they could only stare at him.
When the time comes, Xiwei will be able to say coquettishly: 'Silly, the master can fly!' ’
The fact that he can't move while casting spells also puts him in a very passive state, and he has had to give up casting spells several times in order to avoid attacks. It seems that the skill of accumulating and learning mobile spellcasting is also on the agenda.
The last is the attack.
There's nothing wrong with that, it's just that there are too few Xiwei range types of magic, and if the magic range such as Black Turbidity Impact is expanded a little more, when that group of hundreds of elite goblins that look black and overwhelming rush over, they can be wiped out in one shot, and they don't need to get into the bitter battle that follows.
But this is also the best way to solve it...... As he clears more dungeons, there will definitely be more large-scale magic.
"Looks like a lot of problems." Xiwei sighed, and felt a little uneasy about the plan after that.
Fortunately, the number of dungeons a day has now changed from one to three, and Sivi rejoiced, and called out the magic system interface again.
But before he could enter the Trials Gate layout, the 'embryonic' quest on the quest interface changed slightly.
In the achievement conditions, the symbol of the mana pool has been changed from '○' to '◎'. In other words, the building, which had been under construction since a day earlier, is finally complete!
So Sivi skipped the door of the trial and looked at the academy construction page first.
According to the architectural drawings, the magic pool is a very useful structure, which acts somewhat like a generator in the academy, and is the central component of the academy's energy supply.
Spells such as the magic that supports the Academy's protective barriers, various street lamps, or some self-defense magic weapons are all provided by the mana pool.
If you want to activate the mana pool, you must have a magic core or a dazzling crystal, and when you embed it in the magic pool, there will be a steady flow of mana equivalent to about 100 times that energy source.
Sivi had no interest in exploring the principles of this building, which undoubtedly violated the law of conservation of energy, but it was the appearance of it that intrigued Sivi.
Originally, judging from the preview on the drawing, the shape of the building with the word "pool" in the name does not match the pool at all, but it is a bit like a large globe with a base, but the ball is not a map, but a pitch-black crystalline sphere, in which you can see a nebula that slowly rotates like the Milky Way.
At this time, the magic pool in the Sivi Academy was a pitch-black statue, although the appearance of the statue was a little blurry from the layout, but Sivi was sure that the thing was definitely carved by himself.
A pitch-black statue of its own appearance, with a nebula slowly rotating inside...... Xiwei, who couldn't cry or laugh, really couldn't tell whether it was more majestic or a little more disobedient.
This is probably the 'surprise' of the little monsters mentioned on the voucher.
