For Chen Kai and them, the best material for making zuò water pipes should be metal, but unfortunately they don't have so much metal on hand and don't have such superb pipe-making technology. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)
The second should be the skin, and the so-called leather tube should actually be a pipe made of animal fur after processing. Under the effect of spells, magicians can directly process leather materials that are not very easy to process into relatively complete leather tubes, which are similar in strength to plastic leather pipes in reality. It's just that the price is more expensive, and it is generally used in alchemy test tubes.
Fei Yun's leather tube belongs to this kind of thing, and the slender leather tube is actually not suitable for pumping water, but it can only be used when there is no way. At the same time, in order to ensure safety, Chen Kai and the others must stay away from the lake, that is, they must be at least 50 meters away from the lake to have enough distance to escape. Because the underwater monster is more than 20 meters long just by head, if you get too close, the opponent can jump out of the water and directly attack them. At that time, not only was the pumping plan completely scrapped, but it also lost a small life.
Since there is no bamboo, Chen Kai and his family can only use the cut wood to process into wooden pipes, which will inevitably increase the weight of the wooden pipes for pumping, and at the same time, it will also cause great losses on the way to transportation. Because the precious water source was absorbed by the wood before it flowed into the pool they set up by Chen Kai, and then went deep into the soil below. But there was nothing they could do about it, because there was no bamboo, which could be used as a water pipe as long as the bamboo joints were opened, only a large area of dry and decaying woods.
However, for Chen Kai and them, the reality has not yet reached the point where everything is bad news, "At least they were hiding in the bushes and were not attacked by monsters, and at the same time, there were some trees in the woods that had not dried up." Although the wood is heavier, it can be used as a water pipe after drilling. It's just that it is very troublesome and cumbersome to put two pieces of wood together, and once the mouth is not matched, there is no way to completely penetrate it as a water pipe.
In order to make these wooden water pipes, Chen Kai and his team spent three days. During these three days, they saw many goblin-like monsters trying to get water from the lake.
Most of them remained in the monster's stomach forever, and only one or two were lucky enough to get a little bit of water. Then Chen Kai and the others saw the monster that was obviously an evil creature, and drank all the lake water they had taken into their stomachs in one go.
When Xu Fei saw the other party's action, his eyes almost protruded and hit the telescope he was holding. Because the energy contained in the lake water in his arcane vision is very terrifying, if you drink less, it may be able to be used as a natural "medicine" to replenish the body's energy, but if you drink too much, it will definitely explode like taking explosive "medicine". But the real result was beyond Xu Fei's expectations, the monster that drank the lake water was not only not blown up by the violent energy, but underwent even more peculiar changes. The strong evil power in the other party's body was forced out of the body by the holy power contained in the lake water little by little, and the originally hideous and ugly flame goblin gradually changed its body, and the whole body exuded a pale golden divine light, and the hideous face also became calm.
"Nima! Isn't this the legendary Holy Flame Elf? Could it be that this elf turned out to be a Flame Goblin Turn? Xu Fei almost screamed when he saw the image of the species that exuded a pale golden flame all over his body, because the appearance of that newborn creature was really too similar to the Holy Flame Elf, an elven race that should have been extinct. This elemental elf, which is known as the one closest to the Elven King clan in terms of innate strength, is not a creature from the original continent, but a species summoned from the heterotopic plane by a great mage with a summoning mage. When it appeared on the continent, it caused a sensation for a while, because it was born to use the Holy Fire to attack, and at the same time, it had a very strong ability to comprehend various divine arts. Almost as long as it is related to divine power, it can be quickly mastered, and the power of using it is even greater. It's just that the Holy Flame Elf, which is an elemental elf, is difficult to reproduce, and when he was summoned, the Great Flame Elf was summoned at random, so no one knew the plane where this elemental elf was located at all. Thousands of years ago, the Flame Elves had become legends, and they were only recorded in the atlas of xenomorph life in the adventurer's journal.
"Holy Flame Elves? You mean the monster with white fire all over it? Fei Yun pointed to the creatures in the distance that were bubbling with holy fire, and in his eyes, such creatures did not cause him too much surprise. Because he thought that the lake that could turn a flaming goblin into something like this was a good thing, he continued to lower his head and adjust the shape of the woodpipe after saying a word. At the same time, the small amount of paint on hand is applied to the wooden pipe to ensure the waterproofness of the pipe.
"That's legendary..."Just as Xu Fei wanted to continue to say that the other party was the legendary elemental elf, the newly evolved holy flame elf in the distance suddenly exploded into powder, turning into wisps of flame floating in the air and completely disappeared. Obviously, this guy drank too much lake water, and although he successfully relied on purification to consume some of the lake's energy, he still did not escape death in the end. However, the success of this flame goblin seemed to have provoked other monsters, and when Chen Kai and the others were about to enter the water pipe, more than a dozen goblins successfully obtained the lake water, only this time they did not drink it but drank it little by little. When Chen Kai and the others were about to build the water pipe, five Holy Flame Elves successfully evolved and disappeared into the forest. The rest of the people who didn't succeed in evolution were basically not drinking enough water from the lake, and the second time they went to fetch water, they were dried up, or they drank too much and exploded into flames.
It's just that what makes Chen Kai feel strange is that after entering the transformation, the Holy Flame Elves don't seem to identify with their past clans, not only will they not help them, but they will also "show" disgusted expressions when they see the flame goblins running over. But then again, compared to the handsome and beautiful Flame Elves, the appearance of the Flame Goblins is so ugly, it's no wonder that they hate their own kind. Because if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have found out that these two creatures were once the same kind. The 50-meter-long wooden pipe was finally commissioned under Chen Kai's careful installation, and the last section of the water pipe connecting to the lake was thrown directly into the lake with Fei Yun's leather pipe. Of course, he didn't dare to throw it too far, he just hung into the lake. Since the tube was relatively light and easy to float on the water, Fei Yun hung a stone under the tube. It's just that in this way, the movement is relatively loud, especially when the stone is thrown into the lake, the splash of water frightens Fei Yun, who threw the stone, almost ran away. But fortunately, in the end, he didn't see the terrible crocodile jump out of the water to attack him, so Chen Kai and their first stage of the task was completed, and the only thing left was the task of pumping.
Fortunately, Chen Kai and the others are in a game world full of magical power, otherwise in reality, it would be impossible to draw water from a pool more than fifty meters away without a large pumping machine. In this magical world, many spells can be used to attract water sources from more than ten meters away, and the best is definitely the living water of the water elemental system, which can be guided out of the clear water in the lake to wash the body or the ground with a small hand. It was not easy for Xu Fei to attract the lake water from a few dozen meters away, because his spell 'shooting' range was only twenty-five meters at most, which was of course an ordinary spell. If it is an ultra-long-range strike spell such as an arcane cannonball, the "shooting" range can extend from 5 meters to thousands of meters away, as long as there is enough magic and magic array to support it.
Therefore, if Xu Fei wants to guide the water of the lake from dozens of meters away, he must also use the magic array, and for a mage, mastering the magic array is a compulsory course. Because the power of magic depends not only on the amount of magic, but also on the mastery of your knowledge. It is also a spell, and the power of the spell released by using the magic circle is greater than that of the spell activated by the magic alone. In order to guide out the lake water more than fifty meters away, Xu Fei spent a full day sketching the magic array, just to release a second-order guidance technique. However, if Xu Fei's mentor knew what kind of lake water was that he was attracted to, it was estimated that he would not be able to spend a day, even if it took a year for that ninth-order mentor. Of course, Xu Fei's mentor didn't know what kind of lake his disciple had seen, or that he was already immersed in that huge knowledge in the spell capital, and he might have forgotten about Xu Fei, a player apprentice, long ago.
However, Xu Fei did not embarrass his mentor, and the magic array he sketched was absolutely nothing to find fault with in terms of structure or line. The straight line was poured with Mithril powder mixed with the magic dissolution of high-grade demon blood, and a trace of crystal clarity was the hedron powder after the arcane crystal was ground into powder, which could make Xu Fei's spell more stable. At the same time, in order to prevent the demonic blood liquid in the magic power dissolution from boiling due to the evil power in the air, Xu Fei used the surrounding holy soil that was abundant to the slag as the foundation of the magic array. But I didn't expect this method of using local materials to achieve great success, when the magic array was completely completed, the energy balance was extremely perfect, even if Xu Fei did not use the spell, the power emitted by the magic array itself began to operate.
Of course, if it really works on its own, Xu Fei's efforts will be in vain. Therefore, when the magic array was automatically activated, he stood directly on the magic array, using his magic power to guide the power of the magic circle, and then began to release the arcane spells he needed. A second-order channeling technique is not strong at all, and it is considered the most stubborn existence of the arcanist's miscellaneous spells, and it is difficult to use it anywhere else except for channeling power or matter.
The most used by the arcanist for this spell is to use the power of the guiding technique to guide the melted magic metal solution when making the zuò magic array, and it is definitely easier and more effective to sketch the required magic array on the sketched drawings than to carve it.
It's just that now Xu Fei wants to guide not the metal dissolution, but the blue lake in the distance. The moment he pressed his hands to the wooden hose in front of him, a purple arcane light rushed down his arm into the woodpipe, and then rushed down the pipe towards the lake in the distance. In Xu Fei's body, the magic power quickly passed through the magic array below guò and converted into suction force, constantly guiding the lake water in the distance into the water pipe, and finally the water flowed down the pipe little by little. At the moment when Xu Fei's magic power was about to be exhausted, drops of blue lake water flowed out of the pipe, and finally merged into a small trickle of water.
"I'm so tired," Xu Fei was almost exhausted and collapsed to the ground when the lake water merged into a small stream. However, he still forced his body to press a few spell crystals into the magic array, relying on these few crystals, the entire magic array would not stop running, and the lake that exuded a warm aura would be constantly guided. Although the water flow is very delicate, it may not be able to pick up a barrel of water in half an hour. But it's much safer, at least you don't have to worry about being attacked by the terrible crocodiles in the lake.
When the water full of wooden barrels of lake water was connected, Chen Kai and the others replaced them with a new wooden barrel, and then looked at the blue "colored" lake with "misty" eyes. Originally, they thought that the lake was too deep because the lake looked blue, but now they found that it was the color of the lake itself. Even a few drops of water are this kind of "color", and the blue "color" makes people feel a kind of temptation and fear rising from the bottom of their hearts. Because no one knows whether such a lake is poisonous or not, but one thing is certain, and that is that the lake water is rich in terrifying divine power.
"Can I drink this?" Fei Yun looked at the pool of water scooped up with water and said blankly, seeing the fate of those few flame goblins, everyone had a certain resistance to such a lake. However, they knew that if they could not find a new source of water, they would have to drink the water of the lake, which was similar to poison, to quench their thirst.
"It's like drinking holy water!" With this thought, Chen Kai gently sipped the lake water in the scoop. There is no imaginary bitterness and watery smell, but there is a sweet and fragrant mountain spring. The most important thing is that such a small mouthful of lake water makes the cells in Chen Kaiwang's body feel like they are breathing, as if life is beginning to sprout at a frying.
"I'm so thirsty!!" Yihe's unprecedented feeling of hunger and thirst surged from Chen Kai's heart, and he found that he actually had a thirst that he had never felt before. So much so that when he put the water scoop to his mouth, his mouth was already subconsciously sucking there. By the time Xu Fei and the others found out that something was wrong, when Fei Yun jumped up and knocked off the water scoop in Chen Kai's hand, he had already drunk half a scoop of lake water. This amount was a lot more than those Flame Goblins had drunk, and after drinking that water, Chen Kai's face instantly turned blue. Layers of frost gushed out with his breath, spreading from his face to his feet. To others, it seemed that Chen Kai was definitely going to contribute the experience he had accumulated so hard this time, but Chen Kai himself was immersed in the joyful feeling of cell-filling power. The hoarfrost that spreads all over the body is just a natural reaction of the cold lake water when the body absorbs it, in fact, the blue "color" of the lake water is caused by the water temperature is too low. This cryogenic storage is firmly locked in the water molecules, and unless it evaporates itself, it will not feel the coldness of the water at all.
If it weren't for this, according to the terrifying temperature of this plane, the water of this lake would have evaporated a long time ago, and there would not have been thousands of square meters of water by now.
Because the lake water is kept at a very low temperature and at the same time locks in its temperature in a strange way, it does not evaporate in the scorching heat, nor does it emit cold by means of heat conduction. But when it is drunk into the stomach and absorbed, the cold temperature contained in the water molecules is released. If an ordinary person drinks such lake water, it is guaranteed to freeze the stomach and blood vessels directly in an instant, and hang up in an instant because of the appearance of internal organs. Only a professional can absorb the power of a body of water without being killed by being too cold.
With the absorption and release of every trace of energy in the lake water, the ice on the surface of Chen Kai's body became thicker and thicker, and in the end, a full two centimeters of thin ice completely sealed Chen Kai. However, Xu Fei and the others were greatly relieved after checking the team list, and at the same time, they were extremely envious, because Chen Kai's "sexual" status not only did not weaken, but increased slightly. In just ten seconds, his health increased by a full fifty points, and his fighting energy and mana also increased by 10 points each.
It took half an hour for Chen Kai to stumble out of the melting ice and break through the ice, a trace of black-brown blood oozing from the surface of his body, and the whole body seemed to be fished out of the water. However, his face was unusually excited, because he found that he had drunk something good again. Because in the system log, he saw the golden "color" font that would only appear when the Titan bloodline was activated and drank the Titan's blood, "Drinking unknown lake water permanently strengthens the body, increasing health by 500 points, increasing Douqi magic by 200 points, and increasing the divine genus 'sex' by 10." ”
The first few genera of "sex" Chen Kai knew very well, but the last one of the divine genus "sex" was biased to him and knew very little, after reading the system information, Chen Kai was surprised to find that the so-called divine genus "sex" turned out to be an increase in fighting qi or magic power. For the same spell, the higher the "sex" of the divine art, the higher the power of the divine magic released by the person than the ordinary person of the "sex" of the divine art. Most of the player's elemental "sex" is the same, because this is for the sake of balance, but after Chen Kai drinks this unknown lake water now, his power is ten percent higher than that of others when he is released or attacks with divine fighting energy. It's just that this kind of amplification is only once, because he knows that everything in the game that can permanently amplify the human body is valid for "sex" once, unless it is something marked as a legendary item, it can be increased twice. For example, when Chen Kai drank the Titan Blood, the two increases were different, and the latter eventually evolved into Chen Kai's half-giant bloodline. At the same time, because Chen Kai drank a small sip of lake water, Daozhì finally absorbed too much energy, and almost didn't burst like those flame goblins.
Even if it didn't burst, the bloodlines on Chen Kaishe's body were abnormally sore, as if they would break at any time, this was still the result of the strength of his half-giant bloodline, and if it were an ordinary human being, he would have died of violent blood. Therefore, his health has dropped a lot now, and he is temporarily in a state that cannot be treated, that is, he can only slowly recover his body but cannot be stimulated by any divine power. Because the divine power contained in his body is now in a relatively violent state, if he uses magic to stimulate it again, it will really explode.
"Drink some of yourselves! It's a hard-to-find goodie! Chen Kai wiped a handful of bruises from under his nose, although he looked a little wolf, but his face was very good. In fact, there was no need for Chen Kai to remind everyone else to start lifting the scoop and pouring lake water into their mouths, but they all remembered the tragic fate of those goblins, and they didn't dare to forget that the extra water in their stomachs was just a third of the water in the scoop. It's strange that everyone gains health and mana differently, and even increases health differently.
Zhao Tiezhu increased his health the most, by a full 800 points, but his increased mana was only increased at least, and 50 was less than half of his fighting spirit. Xu Fei's increased health was the least, only 300, but his increased mana was exaggerated to 1500 points. This number simply scared Chen Kai, if it weren't for the fact that this increase could only appear once, he would have doubted that letting Xu Fei drink more lake water would create the first player mage with a magic value of more than 10,000. (To be continued.)
