Chapter 840: Underground Space (Three Chapters in One)
Putting aside the matter of the high-grade bonanza of the powerstone first, Abel did not go to check the eighteenth-story magic tower first, but looked around.
There is still a large area around the magic tower here, and this ancestor has not wasted this place, the ground is full of precious herbs that must be generated in the magical environment.
Some of these herbs were waiting to be supplied, even if Abel had purchased them from the Elven Alchemist's Guild, while they were being cultivated here.
It is estimated that the ancestors spent a lot of effort on this medicinal field, because the medicinal fields that can be planted in a large area with these precious medicinal herbs with extremely high growth requirements require a lot of energy to transform the medicinal fields, and without the corresponding inheritance, it is simply impossible to do it.
This large-scale planting method is the same inheritance as the wizard's rune card making, magic circle making, etc., and is the foundation of the wizard's life.
Don't think that the income of the medicine field is high, the trouble is very big, first of all, the investment is high, and the transformation of the medicine field in the early stage requires a lot of magic materials.
The second is the issue of safety, once this medicine field is seen by other wizards and knows its value during the cultivation process, then how to protect the medicine field is a big problem.
Finally, there is the guarantee of the magic environment, which generally refers to the magic power overflowing from the magic tower, but the medicine field is not enough with that magic power alone.
Therefore, the general medicine field needs a medium and large magic gathering array to provide a magic environment, and this requires a large number of magic stones to activate the magic circle.
But none of this is a problem here, this is an underground space, the lighting is provided by the lighting circle, the light here can be controlled at any time, not to mention the security here, there is no outsider can enter at all.
And the magic environment here is provided by the magic power of the underground powerstone high-grade bonanza, which is almost an endless resource, as long as the powerstone high-grade bonanza below is not mined, the magic environment here will not disappear.
Although Abel hadn't broken the eighteen-story magic tower in the middle at this time, he had already regarded everything here as his own.
"War Commander Spirit, can you invade this Spirit of the Magic Tower?" Abel asked the War Commander Spirit again.
"Your Excellency, due to the opening of the multiple defense arrays, the tower spirit cannot be connected and cannot be invaded!" replied the war commander Ling.
Abel looked at the magic tower in front of him, and from the ancestor's space bag, he didn't find the identity card of the magic tower, which made it more difficult to enter this magic tower.
Now the War Commander Spirit can't invade the Tower Spirit, so it can only be forcibly broken.
There are several ways to break through the defense of the magic tower, one is to constantly attack, so that the energy of the magic tower is consumed, then the defense circle on the magic tower will naturally become invalid.
But it is almost impossible for the magic tower in front of you to consume energy, think about it, there is a high-grade bonanza of powerstone below, with the provision of this bonanza energy, no matter how you attack, you can't consume energy.
In addition, Abel didn't want to destroy the magic tower too much, because he also wanted this magic tower to continue to exist here, and the environment here was even better than the environment of the wizarding circle outside Harry's castle.
For reasons of secrecy, once the magic tower was badly damaged, then he couldn't repair it at all.
"Trouble!" Abel muttered to himself.
"Johnson, come out!" and then he tapped the space beast ring on his chest, and a black hole appeared in front of him.
Johnson strode out of the black hole and bowed to him.
"Johnson, be careful when you put your feet down, the herbs here are very precious, and if you step on them, I will deduct your resources!" Abel said, pointing to the herbs on the ground.
Johnson looked at the countless herbs densely packed under his feet, and then at his huge steel feet, his huge head tilted for a moment, as if to think for a moment, and then its body began to transform, from a human form to an eight-clawed spider with pointy feet.
Just with this change, the artifact suit on its body was automatically retracted into the space bracelet.
The eight pointy feet reduce the landing area, allowing Johnson to carefully find his footing.
"Johnson, try to see if you can pull out this magic tower!" Abel ignored Johnson's funny and pointed to the magic tower and ordered.
Johnson walked to the magic tower, which had eighteen floors, two more than the original Cleaver Magic Tower, and its body changed again, and the multi-faceted iron balls in its body extended from all sides of the magic tower, surrounding the magic tower.
Its eight legs parted again and became sixteen, and then sixteen feet bent down, and the multi-faceted iron ball that wrapped around the tower of magic tightened.
When the sixteen feet lifted upwards with force, the multi-faceted iron ball that wrapped the tower body of the magic tower had been firmly fixed to the tower body, and at this time, the multi-faceted iron ball in Johnson's body was constantly making a piercing grinding sound.
If all the multi-faceted iron balls in Johnson's body were made of the hardest fine iron, then under this force, even the multi-faceted iron balls would break.
It's a pity that although Johnson's strength is huge, if he wants to uproot an eighteen-story magic tower, his strength is still weaker.
Fortunately, the ancestor has died, and this magic tower only has defensive capabilities, not offensive capabilities, so no matter how hard Johnson tried, he was not counterattacked by the magic tower.
This is also the method used by the magic tower that normally loses its owner, because once it attacks, it will consume a lot of energy, so the magic tower's own defense will be reduced, so when the master dies, the tower spirit of the magic tower loses its master, and its only mission is to protect the magic tower, not to attack the enemy.
Able also saw that Johnson alone could not pull the magic tower out of the ground, and he took out four hundred small war golems from the 'Valaya's Ring', all of which were powered by perfect gems and extremely powerful.
Four hundred small war golems surrounded the tower, and they used their arms directly on Johnson's steel body, and their distant bodies on their companions in front of them, finally directing their power to Johnson.
"Johnson, do it again!" Abel said after arranging the four hundred small war puppets through the War Command Spirit.
Fortunately, they possessed the spirit of war command, otherwise these four hundred small war puppets would not have been able to make such complex moves.
Johnson heard Abel's command and began to exert his strength again, and the four hundred small war golems also hissed with huge energy opening, accompanied by the sound of steel grinding.
The eighteen-story magic tower began to shake slightly under the full strength of four hundred small four-meter-tall war golems and Johnson, a steel monster, and then the shaking became bigger and bigger.
"Your Excellency Elder, the connection to the tower spirit has been successful, and it is invading!" Just as the magic tower was shaken by Johnson, the war commander spirit also sent a message.
Just when the magic tower was shaken from side to side, a tiny gap appeared in its defensive circle, which may be small for any human or creature, but it is enough for the exploration of the war commander spirit.
The level of the War Commander Spirit was very high among all the spirits known to Abel, and he didn't believe that the level of the Tower Spirit in this magic tower would surpass that of the War Commander Spirit, so he asked Johnson and the four hundred small war golems to continue to exert their strength, so that the gap would continue to exist there.
"Your Excellency Elder, the Taling has successfully invaded, the Taling has been controlled, and all the defensive circles have been opened!" In just a minute, the eighteen-story magic tower was successfully invaded by the War Commander Spirit, and the Tower Spirit was controlled by the War Commander Spirit.
A magic tower that has lost its many defensive circles is like an undefended city.
"Johnson, stop!" Abel exclaimed as he looked at the wear and tear on the magic tower with some distress.
Unlike just now, the magic tower that Ta Ling has taken control of is already his private property, and any damage to this magic tower is his own loss.
Johnson made a helpless gesture with some humanization, and then took the initiative to ask Abel to enter the space beast ring, it couldn't stay here any longer, it was not the four hundred small war puppets in front of it, it had the precise control of the war command spirit, even when it was full of strength, it didn't touch a single herb.
Able opened a hole and included Johnson in the Spatial Beast Ring, and then four hundred small war golems into the 'Ring of Valaya'.
Ever since he came into possession of the spatial artifact 'Valaya's Ring', he has carried a large number of war machines with him in order to deal with any accidents that may arise at any time.
If it weren't for the fact that the physical attacks of these small war golems did little damage to the hellish creatures in the dark world, and their materials could not resist the erosion of the infernal aura, he would have wanted to bring the small war puppets to the dark world to fight.
Under the control of the War Commander Spirit, the door to the first floor of the magic tower was opened, and Able walked into the top magic tower he had ever seen.
As soon as he entered the magic tower, he felt the amazing concentration of magic power, the concentration of magic here was only a little worse than that of the dark world, but it was the highest in any place he had ever seen in the Holy Continent, including the magic tower.
You must know that there is no large-scale magic gathering array here, but the countless small magic gathering magic arrays on the magic tower are working, and it is estimated that the ancestor did not arrange a large-scale magic gathering array for the sake of the herbs outside, because with the financial resources of the empire, the large-scale magic gathering array is not unaffordable.
On the first floor of the magic tower, you can see a huge teleportation array, 'large teleportation array', Abel was taken aback, it is really a big deal, but thinking about it, as an ancestor, it is normal for this 'large teleportation array' to be brought by him.
Think of the 'large teleportation circle' that would be very useful to Abel, so that the palace could be directly connected to Harry's castle and other teleportation circles, without having to teleport through multiple jumps.
He stepped forward and used his spiritual power to connect to the large teleportation circle, and found that this teleportation circle did not have its own information, which means that it was in the wizard teleportation system, it was a black household, and the wizarding guild could not directly requisition it, and it could not even be discovered.
Although this will also cause trouble, there are too many benefits, and the biggest advantage is that teleportation through this teleportation circle will not have any records in the wizarding guild.
The psychic power connected the large teleportation circle with the large teleportation circle in the magic tower outside his own Harry Castle, then withdrew the teleportation power and looked to the other side of the first floor.
On the ground, fifty wooden chests made of oak are neatly stacked on the ground, and the inlays on the wooden boxes are all made of gold, so you can imagine the preciousness of the items in them.
It's just that after opening it, Abel was disappointed, it was full of intermediate magic stones, and various types were stored separately, and the number of them exceeded most people's imagination.
But these mid-level powerstones really didn't have any effect on him, and he had as many powerstones as he wanted.
However, he thought that after the palace treasury was opened, although the wealth in it was amazing, the resources of the wizards in it were extremely inconsistent with the strength of the empire, and it turned out that most of the wizard resources were stored here.
Come to think of it, is there a safer place than here?
Even if Abel already had the empire in his hands, it took several months, and more than half a year to discover this place.
"These intermediate powerstones will be reserved for the distribution of resources for the Imperial wizards!" he looked at the fifty boxes of intermediate powerstones to determine their effect.
There are only so many items on the first floor, and there are no common meeting rooms or restaurants such as ordinary magic towers, and this place is more practical.
Walking on the wooden staircase full of patterns, he walked up to the second floor of the magic tower, and it can be seen that the function of this magic tower is mainly to store wizard materials and cultivation, so the magic tower can be seen everywhere with the patterns of small magic arrays.
Whether it is the ground in the magic tower or the staircase, every inch of space is drawn with a magic array.
It can be seen that the original owner here, the ancestor, is a cultivator who has taken magic power to the extreme.
Above the second floor, there are also a large number of wizard materials, including various wizard potions, magic stones, and various precious materials, making Abel seem to see a super-large wizard warehouse.
Walking all the way to the sixteenth floor, the sixteenth floor is a library room, where the entire floor is full of books on beautiful shelves.
On the shelves, the books in the shelves are carefully classified.
Able saw the wizard's fire-based, frozen, and lightning-based spell classification books, which were the most numerous, accounting for almost one-third of the entire library.
And then he saw the druid classification, although there are not many books in it, only a dozen, but this druid's cultivation method is the top secret of the elf race, and there are more than a dozen related books here.
Abel himself has cultivated the druid profession, he checked more than a dozen books, and found that almost the entire druid cultivation system is here, but druid cultivation needs special seeds to be enlightened, and no matter how many books here are introduced, it is useless.
On the side, Abel saw the knight classification again, there are thousands of various knight secret techniques, the source of which is needless to say, Gong is afraid that it has been snatched from various knight families for so many years.
However, the knight secret technique here is very effective for the empire, anyway, its source can be pushed to the former royal family, who wants to have doubts about the secret technique, go to them to theorize!
Next, Abel also found books about various wizard inheritances, including drawing spell patterns, making rune cards, making magic circles, and alchemy, etc., including almost all the types of wizarding inheritances he knew, among which mastering any of them could allow a wizard to gain the skill of surviving in the wizarding world.
An empire that has existed for thousands of years has an extremely terrifying collection of books, which is reflected in the fact that it is almost all-encompassing and all-inclusive.
In the corner of the library room, Abel found thousands of books stored on the shelves, and there were no marks on the shelves, but when he saw the titles, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
These thousands of books are all books related to the profession of sacrifice, in the past, Abel killed countless sacrifices without getting a full set of sacrificial spell patterns, there is a full set here, and a large number of explanations and explanations are attached.
Of course, among these thousands of books, the sacrificial spell book is only a small part, and the rest are the research notes of the sacrifice.
What is the study of orc sacrifice?
Abel could almost imagine that corpses, torture, screams, howls, etc., the 'resurrection of skeletons' sacrificed by orcs was the result of this kind of research.
He put the spellbook containing the full set of orc sacrifice spells into the 'Ring of Valaya', and left the level full of doubt.
When he walked up to the seventeenth floor, Able was stunned by the image in front of him, the seventeenth floor of the magic tower was like hell, the huge crystal bottle displayed various components of the human body, and a strong smell of herbs and rancid smells came to his face.
Walking past the crystal bottle containing internal organs and human body tissue, he saw an alchemy table, or operating table, inside.
The rancid smell came from the operating table, and it was probably due to the fact that the ancestor was studying when he left, and before he had time to put away the test sample, the dissected corpse on the operating table had already decomposed, emitting a foul smell.
Human experiments are going on here!
Abel had a creepy feeling that a high-level wizard of the eighteenth level enshrined by the Empire was doing human experiments in his magic tower that were forbidden by the wizards' guild.
Maybe it's not surprising that this is happening in the Orc Empire, but it's the human world.
Abel found a set of magic robes that had been casually thrown on the ground next to the operating table, and his spiritual power swept over the human corpse, judging from the various features on the corpse, this corpse was a wizard.
Old Ancestor is actually using wizard corpses for experiments, what is he going to do?
Abel's heart was full of doubts, with the resources of the ancestor, why did he still do this?
Since entering this magic tower, although Abel didn't know about the ancestor before, now he has a general idea of what kind of wizard this ancestor is, this is a wizard who is crazy about cultivation.
You must know that in this kind of magic tower deep underground, it is almost impossible to communicate with the outside world, and even wizards who can endure loneliness are mostly unbearable.
And the ancestor will not do useless things, so what does he want to get from studying the corpse of the wizard, but unfortunately the ancestor is dead!
Just as Abel sighed, he found a parchment book on the shelf next to the operating table.
Approaching the parchment, he saw the experiments of a wizard that had been going on for hundreds of years, with the ultimate goal of eternal life.
Through the research results already achieved by orc sacrifices, and then continue to study further, so as to obtain a substitute for the human body, so that the wizard can achieve another form of immortality.
"Madman!" Abel tried to burn the parchment directly, but stopped, this research notebook was full of blood, but it was a first-hand study of the wizard's body from the physical structure, most of which he had never heard of.
After thinking about it, he put the research notebook into the 'Valaya's Ring' and threw a fireball on the wizard's corpse on the operating table, cleaning it up.
Abel now finally understands why the sixteenth layer has collected so many books, especially the books with a large number of orc sacrifices, it turns out that they are all for experiments here, maybe give the ancestor some more time, maybe he may really be able to research something.
However, at least Abel has no interest in these studies for a short time, because he is still very young and has enough time to squander, and if he is now the same age as the ancestor, maybe he will take over the research of the ancestor and continue.
Leaving the seventeenth floor and walking to the eighteenth floor, Able saw the lavish decorations, and entered the place with the finest paintings hanging on the walls, woolen carpets on the floor, and the furniture in the style of the palace.
It can be said that this is the only place in the entire magic tower that has a breath of life, from the small water cup on the table to the table and chairs, all of which are the best of the best.
Abel estimated that the ancestor should have arranged this floor in a worldly style in order not to really go crazy.
And Abel also saw that the ancestor didn't have a wizard apprentice here to help him at all, and everything here was operated by him alone.
The lonely ancestor still has some hobbies, and these worldly decorations should be his hobbies.
In the room next to him, Able found the control center of the tower spirit and the entire magic tower.
Due to the death of his master and the invasion of the war command spirit, Taling lost his dominant ability, and he easily recognized the master.
At the moment of the successful confession, Ta Ling's whole body glowed, and then it said as if waking up from sleep: "Master, Ta Ling is at your service!"
At this time, Abel was quickly replacing the intermediate powerstones in the energy slot of the magic tower with the top magic stones, and soon he replaced all the energy slots with the top magic stones, which was his habit, anyway, the perfect gem can only be used by himself, and the best can be used wherever he can.
"Taling, open all the circles!" Abel commanded.
"Yes, master!" replied Taling, only to hear the sound of traffic transmission, and then the entire magic tower was resurrected again.
Yes, this is a resurrection, and when the original owner dies, this magic tower will become a tomb-like existence without an owner, burying all the wealth of the original owner.
And only after the magic tower has a new owner, all the magic circles in the magic tower will be opened, and at this time, the entire magic tower is filled with the light of various magic circles, and the originally somewhat dark lighting circle has also become brighter.
Immediately after, Abel felt that the magic tower had become a part of his body, and he could clearly perceive every magic circle in the magic tower, and the few magic circle patterns that were destroyed by Johnson were also clearly perceived by him.
At this moment, his perception was magnified countless times at once, and the view of the upper garden of the underground space appeared in front of him, then the entire imperial palace, and finally the entire Denan City.
"This is the Great Protector Array!" Abel muttered to himself.
In front of him is the Guardian Array, which is the guardian array of the entire Denan City, and when Abel attacked Denan City, this Guardian Array was not activated, and the members of the royal family had never heard of the existence of the Guardian Array in Denan City before.
It turned out that this guardian array was controlled by the ancestor himself, and if the ancestor was not there, it would be controlled by this tower spirit, but Abel killed the ancestor, and the magic tower was closed, which made the guardian array not activated when attacking Denan City.
Abel felt a little emotional while perceiving the entire Denan City, because he found that the Guardian Array of Denan City may just be an ordinary Guardian Array, with defense and some attack capabilities, but with the bonus of the eighteen-story magic tower underground, if there is a high-level wizard stationed here, it can basically eliminate any high-level wizard of the same level at a fixed point.
Think about it, if a hostile wizard walks into Denan City, is locked by the Guardian Array, and then uses the energy of the entire Guardian Array to suppress it, it is completely possible for the wizard to lose the ability to 'teleport' in a short period of time.
At that time, the guardian wizard can use the magic tower to increase his magic attack power, and then use the guardian array to cast this mana attack power on the suppressed person.
"Perfect guardian system!" Abel exclaimed.
Although he already knew that this was the final hole card of the Kingdom of St. Ellis when he learned about the existence of the underground space, he never expected that this hole card would be so powerful, not only that it could attack anyone in the city, but also monitor any house that was not defended by the magic circle.
The wizard who controls this place can perfectly see everything in Denan City, and Abel maliciously estimates whether the ancestor is precisely because of this to build this guardian array.
"Ta Ling, how do you take care of the herbs in this underground space?" Abel couldn't help but ask as he thought of the herbs planted outside the Magic Tower.
You must know that he didn't want to leave this place without wizard apprentices all the time, and the ancestor would completely rely on himself to take care of so many medicinal herbs, but just so many medicinal fields were enough for him to have no time to cultivate.
"Master, do you give me permission to use the puppet?" asked Talin.
"Taling, I'll give you permission to use the puppet!" Abel replied.
As he gave power to the Towerling, a mechanical sound came from one of the cabinets in the control room, and the doors opened, and two simple humanoid golems stepped out of the cabinets.
Compared to Abel's small war puppet, this humanoid puppet can be said to be extremely simple, with only simple mechanical functions, and the control is completely controlled by Taling, and it can't even stand without Taling's control.
It can be said that this humanoid puppet is the clone of Taling, and can allow Taling to perform actual operations.
The two humanoid golems disappeared into white light in the magic tower, then appeared outside the magic tower, and then began to busy in the medicine field.
Fortunately, the growth cycle of the herbs in these medicinal fields is very long, and they have not been taken care of for several months, and the impact on the medicinal fields is not great, as long as they are taken care of.
Abel knew that this medicinal field was estimated to be an important resource for the original owner of the ancestor here, and he knew that some precious medicinal herbs could be exchanged directly for some potions that could not be purchased from the Alchemist Guild.
And for Abel, the herbs here will eventually become the raw materials for his own use, and in terms of alchemy level, no one in this Holy Continent can surpass him.
At the same time, he also knew that the value of this magic tower was going to increase a little, because this tower spirit turned out to be a tower spirit that had been trained to produce medicinal herbs independently.
The humanoid puppets used by Taling were so tattered that the perfectionist Able could not bear it, and he took out four small war golems from the 'Ring of Valaya' and placed them in the control room, handing over the rights to Taling.
At the same time, ten lightning spirals were placed on the eighteenth floor of the magic tower, so that even if there was no powerful high-level wizard stationed there, this magic tower could inspire elemental attack power comparable to that of a high-level wizard.
When the time comes, select a few credible wizards to garrison here, and the entire city of Denan will become the attack range of these ten lightning spirals.
Back at the entrance, the Burbitch butler was still waiting.
"Butler Burbit, pass the order, no one is allowed to mention it at any time, this is the top secret of the Empire!" Abel said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied the Burbee butler without asking more.
"Don't let anyone in here, anyone who enters here will be attacked!" Abel said, pointing to the underground living quarters that were originally dead soldiers.
After saying that, he took out five lightning spirals and placed them at the entrance, then put his hand on the body of the Burbee butler and led him out of the underground building.
Of course, the butler of Burbeech also saw the five lightning spirals, whose power had been known to the entire Holy Continent during the military parade, and he also knew what Abel said about not letting anyone in, and the entrance was now closed.
Abelliu's five lightning spirals are for those who may know this entrance, who knows if there are people in the empire who know about this entrance, or are hostile to the current empire, or for the wealth underground, but as long as there are five lightning spirals, those who can enter will not come out alive.
