Chapter 51: The Wizard's Tower 1

The aristocracy is a group where the general interest comes first. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Stephen saw the crumpled face of the old Earl of Sutton early the next morning after returning to the mansion, and after the initial analysis of the bloody mandala, he had already found a way to extract the essence of the mixture. It could be seen that the old Earl Sutton had not slept well last night, and his red eyes were full of bloodshots, and when he saw Stephen, he leaned over slightly to express his respect, and the change in attitude was quite obvious. It seemed that the surviving knight yesterday had told him something he knew, and he became more and more in awe after learning about Stephen's true strength.

"If you want something, you have to pay for it. ”

Stephen picked up the milk tea and took a sip, then frowned and put it down, handed over a long list and said, "Prepare these things that are needed on it." Then I will give you the refined potion. ”

The tea comes from the other side of the sea.

He still prefers a slightly bitter tea, which helps to concentrate, and wizards use tea, incense, mint, and other aids in their daily routine, and Stephen especially likes to use refined incense when transcribing scrolls.

"Huh!" the old Earl Sutton took the list and glanced at it, and then couldn't help but gasp, and then said a little uneasily: "I don't know what Your Excellency Stephen needs so much steel for?"

The material recorded above is very complex and numerous.

The old Earl of Sutton may have to dig out the old bottom if he wants to make it up, but what he cares about most is Stephen's demand for steel, you must know that in this era, steel means weapons and armor, and if these are armed to the Norrington family, then the balance of Windy City will be broken. Although the old Earl Sutton longs for a longer life, he still cares deeply about the power of Windy City.

"I'm going to erect a wizard's tower in the North. Stephen said lightly.

Hearing his words, the old Earl of Sutton immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as a noble family that had inherited the bloodline of wizards, of course he knew how huge resources it would take to build a wizard tower. If you look at the materials on the list, you will find that most of them are used in construction, and they are not much compared to the huge consumption of the Wizard Tower. If Stephen builds a wizard's tower in the north, there is no doubt that Countess Elijah will benefit the most, and then the next is himself who has a good relationship with him, the old Earl Sutton thought about the gains and losses, and then gritted his teeth and said, "I see." I'll send someone to help Lord Stephen get these things together as soon as possible. ”

"My clan still has some influence in the North, and if there are other human requirements, Lord Stephen can also notify me at any time. ”

Stephen nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

"Get these things together as soon as possible. I need a whole lab to refine potions. The medicinal properties of the bloody mandala are volatilizing, and the later the time drags on, the more the medicinal properties are lost. ”

As soon as he heard his words, the old Earl Sutton suddenly became a little anxious, and hurriedly said, "Understood." I'll do it now. ”

That's not going to work!

The loss of medicinal properties of the bloody mandala is his future lifespan, and even if it is ten days and half a month more, the loss of medicinal properties will make the old Earl Sutton feel extremely distressed. Stephen assured him last night that the extracted potion could at least leave close to half of its effects after neutralizing the toxicity, which meant that it could increase his lifespan to more than a hundred years, and at the same time, his physical state could be restored to about fifty years old, and he would be able to maintain it for about twenty years by relying on the medicinal properties. Then, as the medicinal properties gradually fade, the old Earl Sutton will age again, but the rate of aging will be much slower, and it will not age rapidly until the end of his life.

"Is this how the wizards of this world prolong their lives?" muttered Stephen, pinching a dark red root.

After the matter is settled.

Steve returned to the mine the next day, and Countess Illya quickly organized the first miners to arrive.

Most of the bills given to the old Earl of Sutton were the building materials needed for the Wizard's Tower, which needed to be moved little by little with the transportation capacity of this era, and the old Earl had already brought about a ton of steel through the iron mines.

Luckily, Countess Elijah actually recruited a dwarf for Stephen!

"Oh! the hills are up!"

"What did I see?!a mining railroad! When will humans build a mining track?" the bearded dwarf shouted as soon as he arrived.

He was a dwarven adventurer who had been poached by the High Count of Alcohol, and in order to obtain the spirits, he regained his job as a miner and is currently one of the foremen of the mines. The curious bearded dwarf was amazed by the mine tracks that Stephen had built, as some of the technology was far superior to that of the dwarves of this era.

But given the wizard's mysterious identity, it's not unusual.

That's right.

The dwarves had light gray skin, and although humans called them Hill Dwarves, Stephen always felt that these creatures were more like Grey Dwarves.

An intelligent creature with an evil nature.

With the dwarves in charge, the mining area was finally up and running, and although the dwarf was a drunkard and a lot of talkers, the old job of mining was still okay, and under his cry, the miners finally understood the operation of the mine rails and began to collect minerals with technology that was ahead of its time.

However, Stephen is still not very satisfied with this efficiency.

Steam-powered minecarts are inefficient, and mining facilities need to be further upgraded.

So he decided to start making his first golem, the clay golem that kept the mine running and cleaned daily.

Inside the tower.

After further expansion, the area of the wizard tower has been close to five hundred square meters, the basement has been dug out of space but has not yet been laid out, the current height is twenty-five meters, and it will need to be further built in the future. Stephen initially divided the area into residential areas, laboratories, warehouses, libraries, etc., and then laid out simple trigger-type spell traps.

The weight of the Clay Golem is 600 pounds.

Its body must be made of a single piece of clay of at least 1,000 pounds and treated with rare materials worth about 1,500 gold coins, and the body of the clay golem must be crafted at an intermediate level (pottery) or intermediate craft (carving), which is simple for Stephen, whose family is rich in master craftsmen and builders.

The crafting of all Golem Golems requires the specialty ability of [Crafting Constructed Life], and [Golem Factory] can be used to replace body crafting in the later stage.

The overall cost of a clay golem is around 20,000 gold coins, and the largest cost is soul crystals and activated life, and the clay golem is sold for 40,000 gold coins.

With Stephen's technique, the cost of the Clay Golem can currently be controlled within 10,000 gold coins by removing some of the combat abilities.

1000 pounds of clay is the easiest material to obtain, Stephen has already completed the body outline of the clay golem, and what he needs to do at present is to complete the rune construction of the golem puppet, which is like the blood vessels and bones in the human body, the runes are distributed along the veins of the golem's body, and the main materials used are silver, gold, gem powder, etc.

The ultimate core is the Soul Crystal.

A full Clay Golem should have the following abilities - Construct Creature Traits, Shimmer Vision, 60 Feet of Dark Vision, Immunity to All Mind Effects, Immunity to Poison, Sleep, Paralysis, Shock, Sickness, One Death, No Hits, Bruises, Attribute Damage, Attribute Drain, Fatigue, Exhaustion and Energy Drain, No Eating, No Sleeping, No Breathing, etc.

Behind the Wizard's Tower, Stephen carved out a planting area.

Because of his contact with the aborigines, he also did not need ordinary crops, so now a variant of the mandala from the Golden Creek Manor is transplanted there.
