Chapter 293: Shadow of War
【Chinese Network】, to provide you with wonderful reading.
With Makalu's help, Jiang Feng consumed about five hundred magic stones, and finally sent all one hundred high-level knights to the colony of the Garden of Thorns.
When they saw the hemispherical colonial square, these natives from medieval civilizations were all dumbfounded and stunned.
If it weren't for Jiang Feng's reminder, they wouldn't even treat this thing as a building, but some kind of magical beast that the wizard master kept in captivity.
Especially when Mine Mule No. 1 spewed blue fire and took off from the tarmac on the right side of Colonial Square, several slaves with high-level knightly strength actually prostrate on the ground, with a cross prayer painted on the chest of their right hand.
Makalu was obviously stunned, but the surprise on his face was not as strong as that of the slaves.
Noticing the expression on his face, out of curiosity, Jiang Feng asked casually.
"You've ever seen anything like this?"
“…… It's even if I've seen it, but it's in the secret realm of the Cursed Grave, and the difference is a bit big. Makalu said slowly.
"Oh? Talk to me about it. Jiang Feng asked with interest.
"It's the same Iron Bird, but it's bigger, its wings are longer, and the flames it spews out are not downward, but backwards, and it seems like it needs to be operated by a human on it...... I don't remember the specifics very well, but in short, it was a world with poor magical resources, and I only took it once. Makalu shook his head and said.
This came back to Jiang Feng's turn to be surprised.
"You ...... Haven't you considered bringing these things back to the Wizarding Continent? ”
The wizarding continent he saw was still at the level of medieval civilization. In the Emerald Town, for example, the streets are paved with smooth stone bricks, and the street lamps that decorate the sides of the streets use magic as an energy source, but that's about it.
The farmers who work in the fields still use primitive agricultural tools. All kinds of handicraft workshops still use original production tools and production concepts.
If the Wizarding Continent can use "psionic jump" technology such as portals to achieve cross-galaxy space jumps and plunder other civilizations, there is no reason to encounter medieval civilizations. However, after seeing the materialist technology, don't they have any idea at all?
However, for Jiang Feng's question, Makalu showed no less confusion than him.
"Why are we doing this?"
Jiang Feng was slightly stunned, but after seeing the expression on his face, he was suddenly relieved.
That's right......
Why would they do it?
It's like collecting the technology of the idealistic side by yourself, most of it is also out of curiosity, but in her bones it is the arrogance of a third-level civilization, and she has never really taken the tricks of these natives into account.
The civilization on the idealistic side looks at the world on the materialistic side in the same way.
And even more.
Because in most idealistic civilizations, whether it is a wizard civilization or a theocracy established by gods, the idea of "people-oriented" does not exist.
Spiritual power is the source of strength, and one's own sea of knowledge is the core of the universe and the source of all mysteries. In pursuit of the truth, they have no obligation to make mortals live better, and they have never even taken these ants who know nothing about the truth of the universe in their eyes.
They may want to decorate their homes, install magical street lamps on the streets, and make some magic-powered means of transportation, but they will definitely not waste time researching how to make farmers produce more food and how to improve the livelihood of the people in the Wizarding Continent.
There may be some outliers among wizards who will be interested in some machines designed by mortals above the age of electrical appliances, and collect those gadgets brought back from another world like souvenirs, but there will definitely be no wizard who has the mentality of carrying forward these technologies and specializes in them.
For they are already on a path to truth, and have come far, far on this path......
……
After placing these high-ranking knights in the Colonial Square, Jiang Feng took a lot of effort to make these natives accept these things that were beyond their cognition, and let them accept the way of life of civilized people.
Although they still do stupid things, but overall, they have improved a lot from the beginning.
And just like that, three days passed.
After a short run-in period, Jiang Feng promoted a relatively calm-looking guy from among these slaves.
According to the information provided by Makalu, his name is Owen, and before he followed the caravan of slave traders to the town of Rock, he was once the captain of the royal palace guard of a small country on the continent of Norren, and his strength was infinitely close to the master level.
Jiang Fengfeng appointed him as the captain of the Colonial Marine Corps, as the commander of these people, and then promoted some slaves who also had command experience as this person's subordinates.
A simple pyramid level, and that's it. Although they didn't have any combat power now, Jiang Feng would soon use knowledge far beyond their time to completely subvert the common sense they had accumulated in their lifetime, and arm them to the teeth with near-modern weapons.
After arranging the daily training work, Jiang Feng returned to the villa located on the outskirts of the Emerald Town of the Wizarding Continent through the portal in Colonial Square.
After staying in the villa for a while, Jiang Feng left the gate in the front yard of the villa very carefully.
With the experience of the last attack, he is now much more cautious than before, the ghost drone is already on standby, and the Galaxy K6 inserted in his waist has also opened the insurance.
But this time nothing happened.
The enemy, hiding in the shadows, seemed to have given up on doing anything here, and there were no more twists and turns until he crossed the stone bridge and stood at the foot of the Emerald Tower.
This made Jiang Feng frown slightly.
He doesn't think the attacker is the kind of person who will give up easily.
However, as soon as he entered the Jade Tower, he quickly left the previous Jade Seal matter behind him because of the situation in front of him.
The atmosphere in the wizard's tower was very solemn, and there were not many smiles on the faces of each wizard, and many of them had gloomy expressions that were about to drip water.
In the corridor in front of the dormitory building, Jiang Feng happened to meet Hanlot, who was walking towards the teleportation array on the floor, so he grabbed him and asked.
"What's going on here?"
Hanlot's expression was quite normal, but the complexity in his expression still couldn't be hidden.
"Rector is dead...... It was the Dark Wizard who did it. ”
Lector, one of the mentors of the Emerald Tower, has the strength of a six-star wizard.
Unlike researchers and apprentices, wizards above six stars are valuable talents that cannot be ignored for any wizard tower.
Presumably, after hearing the news of Rector's death, the upper echelons of the Emerald Tower must have been furious.
And most of the solemn-faced apprentices and researchers, with the exception of Lector's students, must have smelled a hint of war and were uneasy about the upcoming war.
Therefore, after listening to Hanlot's statement, Jiang Feng immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.
“…… Looks like I didn't come back at the right time. ”
"No, you'll only be a few days ahead at most, or it won't be long before the Emerald Tower sends a summons to all the apprentices and researchers, and those who are out within the time limit will return to the Emerald Tower immediately." Hanlot said.
For any wizard who has signed a contract with the Emerald Tower, a summoning order is something that cannot be violated. If you do not return to the Wizard's Tower after the specified period, you will be listed as a traitor.
It's impossible to hide outside and stay out of the situation, unless you get out of the Emerald Tower as soon as possible.
Jiang Feng suddenly had a bad premonition, but because he was not sure, he still asked by the way.
"What about the school celebration and prom?"
"This year's one was canceled, and I guess it was replaced by something else." Hanlot said with a complicated expression.
Although he is not qualified to participate in the prom, he is still quite looking forward to the annual school anniversary.
At this moment, a boy wearing an apprentice's uniform trotted over from the direction of the teleportation array, stopped in front of Jiang Feng and Hanlot, and saluted slightly.
Jiang Feng had seen him in the pharmacy department before, and although he didn't know his name, he knew that he was Roland Doyle's apprentice, so he spoke softly.
"What's the matter?"
"Dear Mr. Jiang Feng, I am here to bring a message for Mr. Roland Doyle, Mr. He hopes that you will go to the laboratory of the pharmacy department immediately, he is waiting for you there......" Mobile phone users, please browse m. reading, a better reading experience.
