Viewed from the sky, the Toniguel region is high at both ends and low in the middle, with a large area to the southwest, and the fir castle is located in this direction. Looking east from the fir fort, the undulating shadows of the mountains under the clear blue sky, the large hilly area from the western foothills of the Grahal Mountains and the tributaries of the Gris River meet here, making it the best hunting ground in autumn and winter, and the most densely forested area.

Located on the border between the Mintai region and the fir realm, it borders Pallas to the north and the Shavrund mine to the east, guarding the most important passage to the outside of Tonigel, which is the best location for Tonigal Fortress in Brando's vision.

Although the terrain is undulating, the terrain is never a problem for dwarves. It was only for financial reasons that the plan was now in full swing, with some troops stationed in the hills, and a few forts erected on the main roads.

In the heart of the hills, the forest is thought to have carved out a clearing that was supposed to be a place of lush vegetation, but now the clearing is covered with rocks collected from the forest, and the gray and uneven surface depicts a large circle.

Plurality of concentric circles made up the main body of the circle, and it was filled with mystical runes that might not be recognizable even if the most famous masters of the Eruin Royal Society could identify them. For Brando, the circle dates back to at least the pre-Dark Dragons, dating back to the Battle of Dusk.

There was a mysterious power flowing from the circle, like the whispers of the woods, a purely natural force that filled the forest, and in the crevices between the rocks, many green vines grew in a degree visible to the eye. Although the circle has only been built for less than a week, "the vines look like they have been sleeping in the forest for hundreds of years." This phenomenon of unusually lush vegetation has been maintained for several days, "The circle seems to be able to gather the magic of the forest.

This is the completed Valhalla Central Circle, which has a groove in the center of the circle, which fits exactly with the city core in Brando's hand, which is the place reserved for it.

"The magic circle does not need an external source of magic power, and once it is completed, you can chōu take free magic power, such a powerful law, even if we are silver jīng spirits, we don't have it." Metissa looked at the circle in the forest and exclaimed, "What a pure natural breath, Lord Lord, you are so powerful. ”

"It's not my work." Brando replied embarrassedly.

"That being said, but no one can decipher the information about this circle on the crystal" Even the druid elders who came from the Black Forest were powerless, and the lord happened to have read the ancient books in this area, which could not but be said to be a choice of fate. "Behind Brando, the sister of the wild jīng spirit also agreed with the statement of the princess jīng spirit.

Hearing Flo say this, Brando smiled. He can interpret this crystal more or less because of his special identity, and he can understand the "real" purpose of an object through the additional information projected on the retina, "while the aborigines can only guess what a magical object does through archaeological or general identification methods."

"So Brando, when are you going to put the crystal on it?" Roman asked, sitting on the rock.

"It should be now." Brando replied.

He has also seen scenes in past games where the city core is nurtured, which is actually a semi-intelligent artificial life that is planted like a tree seed and then injected with magic to make it grow.

But before planting, you still need a magic circle to strengthen it," Brando is still seeing it for the first time. He chā put the crystal in his hand into the groove of the middle of the circle, and felt the crystal buzz and vibrate in his hand, and there seemed to be a faint light inside, and the light flowed out like golden water along the runes of the circle.

Brando quickly shook his head.

For a moment, he almost thought he had read it wrong, because a row of green text appeared on his retina: "A request from Mo'an, access to the lord system." ”

Brando's lord system was actually activated when he first obtained lord status, and the lord system after it was turned on is a bit like a town panel in an sLg game, which can be used to monitor the operation of his territory.

For example, Brando's lord system at the moment has two downward submenus, the Ring of the Trade Winds and Tonigel (2/3 of the territory) "He can see the income and expenditure of the two territories, specialties" population, mines, forest resources, and law and order status, etc.

It also comes with a set of personnel appointment numbers, such as the ability to see who the current person in charge is in different sub-options. For example, in Tonigel's financial situation panel, the person in charge is Roman.

If Brando were to remove Roman from this position at this moment, he could see a series of implications for the future finances of the realm. This system exists in the game, but it is more powerful in the game, and the player lord can even use this system to complete the appointment and dismissal of chéng personnel and issue some decrees.

But in this Vajnd world, the territorial system doesn't actually cào, it's basically just a surveillance system. Just surveillance, it's very powerful. Brando can see that if Roman is placed in charge of the Schavrend silver mine, it can increase the mine's revenue by almost a third in the next three months.

The Merchant's abilities were not first understood until he revealed the secrets of the lord's system, but even so, he preferred to keep Roman in his position as the head of Tonigel's finances.

Although little Roman's talent for financial management is far less than her talent for business, the trade in the territory is now more than just the income of the silver mines, and in terms of the total amount, it is still much more cost-effective for him to stay in this position than to be the head of any mine.

Of course, these are all off-topic. Brando looked at the dark green text suspended on his retina, froze for a moment, and then agreed to the request.

Immediately after that, there was a subsystem under the lord system, and the name was Valhalla. However, this system is still gray, and Brando tries to touch it, but immediately gets a hint: "Valhalla breeding, the first stage requires 132oo mana." ”

"132ooo units of mana!?" Brando was taken aback: "The unit of magic power here is mana, of course 130,000 mana is not something anyone can provide, even wizards like William and Tulaman have brought it, and it is estimated that they will be sucked up, so much magic power can only be output by magic crystals, Brando reacted immediately."

One of the lowest levels of the Mana Crystals is the secondary Moonstone, followed by the Flame Agate. However, he was not a wizard before, nor was he a professional alchemist, and he really didn't know how many units of magic the secondary moonstone could be converted into, and he was really a little apprehensive for a while, if the conversion rate was too low, then this thing called 1 Valhalla was purely a bottomless black dòng.

Thinking of this, Brando hurriedly took out the magic crystal that had been prepared long ago from the dimensional dòng, it was a secondary moonstone "The quality of the magic crystal mine in the Black Forest is still good, at least the magic power on this secondary moonstone is much richer than what Brando has seen on the market."

He threw the secondary moonstone onto the circle, and almost in the blink of an eye, the diamond-shaped magic crystal lost its face and became transparent, glass-like. And the hint in Brando's retina has also changed: "In Valhalla's cultivation, the first stage requires mana 1319oo. ”

Lando breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if the lowest-level moon crystal can be exchanged for 1oo units of magic power, then the high-level magic crystal is no problem. He tried the flame agate again, and sure enough, the jiāo conversion ratio of a flame pattern agate was about 2ooo.

In this way, the magic crystals needed for 130,000 units of mana are only a few hundred. The magic crystals mined for the first time in the Rich Magic Crystal Mine in the Black Forest are tons, and the magic crystals that are to be used in the territory at this moment are actually Charles and other mages and Lu Bai,

Master Tamar's forge is only there, so Brando has almost half of the mining amount in his own pocket, "not worrying about the magic crystals that Valhalla needs."

But he soon realized that he was naïve.

Hundreds of crystals were thrown down to exchange for a pile of transparent glass, and at this time, the city core finally absorbed enough of the magic needed for the first stage, and the whole crystal creaked, and immediately a large number of cracks appeared on it.

Then, with a click, the core of the city shattered in plain sight, and a tree grew out of its original groove......

A small tree bud.

"It's máo!" With Brando's knowledge, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded at this moment, "It's outrageous enough to plant the heart of the city like a tree seed, but I didn't expect to really grow a sapling for him."

However, Brando also knew that this tree must be extraordinary, and no one would believe that what would come out of a few hundred magic crystals would be an ordinary sapling, only to see that the sapling would grow in the wind, "In an astonishing degree, it grew to Brando's height in an instant."

Brando raised his head and saw that the sapling had begun to thicken and lengthen, "stretching out its branches, it was like a sacred tree of the ancient jīng spirit, and in a moment it grew to the point that it needed to be hugged by one person, reaching a height of several meters."

In just one minute, this "sapling" has grown to the level that it takes at least ten years for the average tree to reach, but it has no intention of stopping.

Everyone present saw that dense and airy roots began to grow on the trunk of the tree, and many roots also sprang up under the surface of the rocky formation to overturn the stone slabs, and these roots were also growing to a degree that was visible to the eyes of the ròu eye, and then knotted together.

A few breaths, "the sapling, it's a big circle again."

I saw that there was an ancient tree.

"This ...... This is ......" At this time, Otares, who had been sleeping in Brando's heart, also woke up because she felt the drastic changes in the magic around her, and she was a little speechless when she saw the tree.

Brando was actually speechless for a long time.

Because right in front of him, the sapling was getting thicker and thicker, and countless roots and branches extended from the trunk, and now it had risen to the point where it would take seven or eight people to hug it. However, the height of the tree was never high, and the highest was a few meters above the ground, and at this time Brando gradually saw the appearance of the tree, which formed a natural "wide" field between the canopy layers.

"it!" Brando finally reacted at this moment: "Isn't this the World Tree in the Ring of Trade Winds!" ”a。
