449 The Legend of the Kobold
Brian doesn't have to worry about firewood, rice, oil, and salt like his own master. Instead of showing Gordon's heartache at the imminent loss of a large sum of gold, he held up another fleshy tentacle and said to him, "In addition, we need the help of a spellcaster who is friendly with the water elemental to complete the work of making the key. ”
Gordon was a mage, and one of the best mages of his age or arcane attainments. He is proficient in using all kinds of spells and controlling the energy of various attributes, just like commanding his own arm. But even so, he didn't dare to say that he had reached the realm of "affinity" with a certain energy or element.
No matter how skilled a mage is at mastering the elements and energies, he only treats them as a foreign object, a tool that can be used. However, "affinity" indicates a special relationship between the caster and a certain element or energy.
It is not the user and the tool, not the master and the servant, not the superior and the subject. It is a kind of relationship similar to that between mother and daughter, brother, and sister, not only in terms of function, but also in terms of emotional experience, and the caster has established a close relationship with a certain element or energy, which can be called "affinity".
Of course, it is impossible for a rational mage like Gordon, who learns and studies theoretical knowledge, and constantly practices and explores through guò to master the power of arcane power, to have such an emotional relationship with tools.
Only those spellcasters who are good at manipulating elements and energy due to their bloodline, talent, and race are likely to establish an "affinity" relationship with the elements.
"A caster with an affinity for the water elemental?" Gordon cupped his chin and thought for a moment. Then he summoned the fairy queen who was reading a book while enjoying ice cream in the ring.
Perhaps because the summoning was too sudden, there was still a trace of ice cream sticking to the corners of Ainia's mouth.
Gordon pointed to the corner of his mouth. smiled: "It seems that our queen Xià lives a very comfortable life." ”
The little queen's face turned red, and she hurriedly stretched out her little fragrant tongue and licked off the white thick material at the corner of her mouth. This little action is really indescribably cute, and it makes people really want to imprint it in their minds for the rest of their lives.
Perhaps because of her petite stature that she can be called pocket-sized, Ainia's every move contains a soft and delicate feminine charm. It's all magnified a lot.
"Rude, master, do you have anything to do with me?" Ania seemed to want to use a dignified demeanor to cover up the small gesture just now.
Gordon shifted the conversation to business: "Ainea. You are the Ice Elf Queen from the Water Elemental Realm. Since ice is an extended form of water, your ability to control the water element must be excellent, right? ”
"Yes, master." Ania nodded. She held out her hand. Snap your fingers slightly. A pale blue stream of water appeared in the palm of her hand. There were no spells or gestures, and the pale blue water took on various shapes in Ainia's hands, almost like a child playing in his mother's hands. ”
"Brian, our Water Elemental Affinity, has been found."
For Brian, beautiful Ainia has no attraction at all. His fleshy tentacles are only excited to wave when they see a delicious steak.
The pink-fleshed whirring brain said, "Good. As long as all the materials for making the Zuò Element Key are ready, we are ready to go. ”
"Don't be in too much of a hurry. Brian, you can start by explaining to me the steps to make the Zuò Elemental Key. I can familiarize myself with it and practice it first, so I don't have to wait until the official start to fail. ”
Making an element key is obviously a costly and difficult task. Each failure would have caused Gordon's vault to suffer a heavy blow. So he thought it would be better to start after being prepared. This also reduces risks and losses.
And as for how to obtain the elemental key, Gordon has another plan that has a smaller chance, but there is also a hope.
Everything in the territory is going on in an orderly manner. The two forces that came to Sea Cliff Fort as guests also set their itinerary to leave.
The mages of the Arcane Federation are ready to leave in two days.
After the agreement was reached on the establishment of a source energy observatory on the Haiwen Peninsula, the environment of the specific site has also been investigated. The mages need to rush back to Jiuyao Island, submit a report to the higher-ups, and then prepare the manpower and materials. The next time you land on the Hybon Peninsula, you will start building an observatory.
However, these trivial matters have nothing to do with a big man like Kimbos, who is the master of the Nine Towers. He is going to go alone to the desert Big 6 across the Star Sea to deal with some troublesome things that are said to be related to demons. It seems that not only Ferreton, but also other countries in the main material realm have also been harassed by those abyssal creatures.
After spending time with Kimbos these days, Gordon also has a better understanding of this powerful person who has become a high-ranking member of the Arcane Federation as a kobold race.
For example, although Kim Boss is a kobold race that is very inferior in the eyes of other civilizations, his own bloodline is not inferior at all.
He has the blood of a red dragon.
This trait is very evident in the nature of dragons, especially in male dragons. Perhaps in order to compensate for the extremely low reproductive ability of the dragon race, the Creator allowed the male dragons to have extremely vigorous reproduction**.
The quality is not enough, the quantity is to make up. Difficulty in getting a woman to win the bid? It doesn't matter, just come a few more times. Anyway, with the dragon's strong body, this is not a problem.
Although humans look down on kobolds, in the eyes of the arrogant and empty-eyed dragons, there is not much difference between humans and kobolds, and they are both equally weak. So since there are dragons who are willing to incarnate as humans to go to the tavern to make a date, it is not surprising that there are also dragons with more alternative tastes who will choose to incarnate as kobolds and have a "Wangwang" love.
But that's a bit of an inaccuracy to say. Because for dragons, creatures of other races are just tools for breeding and satisfying themselves. The love between dragons and other races is very rare.
So Gordon thought it was funny when he heard Ioon say that Bahamut actually went around pulling people around to match and match interracial marriages in order to increase the number of dragons.
Of course, just as some otaku really regard inflatable dolls as their wives, there are also many dragons who have real love for the opposite sex of other races.
However, among these true love objects, kobolds are definitely not included.
In any case, Kim Bos has red dragon blood in his body, that's for sure.
At the beginning, when the red dragon blood on this kobold had not yet awakened, he was just a vendor in Winterfell on the West Coast. Fighting wits and courage with the patrol members all day long, and being complacent about deceiving a few stupid and wealthy adventurers with shoddy enchantments, is what Kimbos's life is all about.
Until one day, by chance, when he followed a legendary adventure team into the ruins of the Gisyankees, he accidentally activated the red dragon blood in his body, and since then he has a different life.
Kimboth first became a warlock, and then, after an adventure story worthy of the protagonist of an adventure novel, at the age of forty, he reached the level of the Nine Rings.
But even with this achievement, Kimbos was not satisfied.
In Ancient Era, any kind of dragon bloodline can give players a considerable bonus to their base attributes. It's the same in reality, although there is no specific number to show, but although Kim Bos is a kobold, he has the extraordinary intelligence of many humans with the blood of the red dragon.
Because of this advantage, Kim Bos decided to start studying arcane and become a mage.
As a warlock, Kimboss takes an emotional view of arcane and uses it instinctively.
But as a mage, he needs to look at arcane from a rational perspective, not as an innate instinctive talent, but as a systematic knowledge to learn and use as a tool.
Such a change is extremely painful and prolonged.
But Kimboss did it anyway.
Because a warlock wants to understand the true meaning of power and become a legend, he can only rely on chance and luck. Mages, on the other hand, rely on accumulating knowledge and honing their arcane skills. Comparatively speaking, among spellcasters, mages have a much greater chance of advancing to the legendary realm than warlocks.
Today, as a mage, Kimbos has also achieved extraordinary things.
Gordon learned a lot from talking with this high-level mage with a strange experience. Especially in terms of how to control zhì feelings, there is a great gain. A mage needs to stay sane and calm at all times, but a warlock often becomes emotional and sensual because of the influence of blood, and is even ridiculed as "a warlock is like a woman".
And Kimbos has to change from a warlock to a mage, and the difficulty can be imagined. His experience and experience are also quite useful for Gordon's enlightenment.
A "senior master" like Kim Bos can naturally go and go casually. But an entire fleet of the Phoenix family would require a lot of preparation.
And in line with the principle of resource utilization, Gordon also asked Ms. Veronka for a favor before she left: to lead the Phoenix fleet to help uproot and completely eradicate the power of smugglers on the Hyvon Peninsula.
In order to completely ensure Ji'er's safety, the Phoenix family fleet that came to the Haiwen Peninsula can be described as elite. The Phoenix Knights equipped with the Phoenix Battle Armor alone had a full fifty people.
With such a powerful helper, how could Gordon not make good use of it? (To be continued!)
