Chapter 72: The Foundation

Chapter 72 Foundation

No one would notice the disappearance of a small house in the sprawling Stormwind City.

Li Zhenshuo finally understood what Jeff was talking about, and the hut was dismantled by Hollington and reduced to one piece after another.

For such a huge part, regardless of whether Hollington was an outstanding alchemist or not, the ability to assemble and disassemble it alone had deeply impressed Lao Li.

Huge caravans began to operate one after another, and Stormwind City's inspection of alchemy equipment was completely a decoration in front of this large pile of parts.

What made Li Zhen even more incomprehensible was that for that tightly knit energy reactor, Hollington could also disassemble it into palm-sized parts.

A special caravan was ushered in in the underground caverns of Emerald Ridge, and after a brief handover with Ivy, they were sent directly to the most central secret cave.

The vast agate wilderness is dominated by cold snaps for at least half the year, and as winter begins, the occasional drifting snow makes the climate even colder.

Treating Hollington, Li Zhen trembled with surprising respect, like an apprentice to a kind mentor, of course, at this moment, in this tight underground tunnel, including Li Zhenshu, there were a total of ten unfamiliar faces, standing respectfully in front of Hollington.

"You want to learn alchemy?", Holrington stared at Li Zhenshu, he had heard of this newly rising lord in the wasteland, of course, when talking about the magic crystal cannon business, he had also comprehended the courage of this lord, but at this moment, when he heard the other party's request, he still couldn't believe it.

"Li, with your current wealth, you can completely hire a good alchemist service!", in Hallington's opinion, with the continuous accumulation of funds in Emerald Ridge and its close connection with various bandit leaders in the wasteland, sooner or later it will become the overlord of the powerful side of this wasteland.

Alchemy is a boring subject, and it takes at least five years or more to get from start to entry.

"Mentor, I hope to be able to touch something different!", Li Zhenshu's attitude was very rigorous, and his tone was also very firm.

Hollington frowned, this is indeed a problem, Li Zhenshu's age is not young, he is completely wrong The best age for alchemy apprentices, the few next to him are still selected by him after thousands of selections, I have to say that the wasteland is barren enough, even if this kind of apprentice who simply operates the magic crystal cannon, he needs to choose one from thousands of slaves.

In the Alchemy Alliance, such people are everywhere.

"Honestly, you can't make it happen!", Hollington said bluntly, "At this age, no one wants to set foot in the alchemy industry anymore. ”

Regarding Hollington's directness, Li Zhenshuo smiled calmly, "Being able to contact this kind of top-notch alchemy is already a matter of the favor of the Creation God, how dare I expect to achieve something, however, I believe that in the next few decades or even thousands of years, energy technology will inevitably become the driving force for the development of the world, and alchemy is the most direct way." ”

Holrington looked at Li Zhenshu's eyes and couldn't help but light up, being able to have such a long-term insight, even those alchemy masters may not have it, "Okay, but you will not be a lord here with me in the future." ”

"Don't worry, I'm just an apprentice!"

The boss who pays his salary is really not a good job, but it is a deal that cannot be refused, "Li Zhenshu, follow me to the surface to measure the specific layout of the magic crystal cannon!"

Li Zhenshu followed closely behind him, followed Hollington's footsteps directly out of the warm underground cavern, and went straight to the surface of the wasteland that had been penetrated by the cold wind, and the terrifying northwest wind was like the breath of an ice and snow dragon, instantly emptying the temperature on the surface of the body.

"Why, if you feel cold, go back! Although most of the alchemists stay in the laboratory, they can't transform their results into something useful to the world, it will only be a pile of useless data. Hollington glanced at him obliquely, braving the cold wind and walking off into the distance.

Li Zhenshu quickly followed, feeling that the entire wasteland was a terrifying big refrigerator, normal people would definitely not survive half an hour here, and Lao Li could even feel the sound of Huo Lington's rapid breathing.

His steps were slow, but he didn't stop, tapping lightly on the ground every few steps, or holding a thick layer of red clay and sniffing it slowly.

Lao Li was very inexplicable anyway, in his opinion, the soil here was almost exactly the same, "Are you curious? The firing of the magic crystal cannon will have a strong recoil, so we have to choose an absolutely stable foundation, you come to smell it, what is the difference between these soils." ”

The taste of the two handfuls of red clay is almost identical.

Hollington's voice was very stern, "The soil of the Agate Great Wasteland has a very strong demonic nature, which is why there is no grass, I have tested it, although the demonic nature here is very weak, but if you can have a powerful magic power extractor, you can even support the firing of the magic crystal cannon without even needing a magic crystal." ”

Li Zhenshu's eyes lit up, he didn't use a magic power extraction machine, that didn't mean that he didn't need to consume magic crystals at all.

Seeing Li Zhen's trembling expression, Hollington instantly laughed, "Don't be delusional, the magic power here is very thin, and if you want to launch a magic crystal cannonball, you have to absorb at least a hundred kilometers of magic power, and this kind of powerful magic power device, even if it is a human race, is very rare, and the price is 100,000 times that of an ordinary magic power extractor." ”

Li Zhenshu was not intimidated by this number, but his heart was a little excited, "Mentor, there really is such a machine that does not need to be launched by magic crystals. ”

"Yes, and a lot!"

"A lot?", Li Zhen said inexplicably in surprise, "Didn't you say?"

"Yes, I said that it costs a lot, but there are more powerful races in this world, and when you set foot in the alchemy industry, you must have thinking that no one dared to imagine before, and if you don't have amazing ideas, you will only be an ordinary person for the rest of your life. ”

For this kind of teaching-style introduction, Li Zhenshu can at least make up tens of thousands of sentences, what he cares about now is the kind of machine that extracts magic power, and now he doesn't have half of the magic crystal on hand, even if he builds this magic crystal cannon, it will become a bunch of decorations because there is no magic crystal charge.

But Holrington obviously didn't mean to stay on this topic, and when he walked to a relatively wide area, he stepped lightly with his foot, "Well, this area is good, Li Zhenshu, just sit on the foundation here." ”

"I don't know what can I do, mentor?"

"Of course, it is to lay the foundation, this is a big project, the solution is very simple, find thousands of strong beast slaves, and use wooden piers to really squat this place, almost a month. ”

"A month?", Li Zhen frowned, this is a little different from him, Redbeard and a few robbers are still waiting in his own cave, I don't know how many contradictions have arisen in a month, "Mentor, I don't know if there is a way to hurry up." ”

"Quick?", Hollington glared at Li Zhenshu, he was very dissatisfied with this impatient personality, alchemists can settle down, "Yes, use magic to melt this land." After speaking, he waved his sleeves and walked straight to the hole.

"Melt?"

The leader of the mage bandit group, seeing Li Zhenshu's invitation, led several leaders directly into the Emerald Ridge, and before he stayed, he was led by Li Zhenshu to the land that had been inspected.

"Li, you want to completely melt this land?", the old mage looked at Li Zhen in puzzlement, his name is Wink, he was originally a court mage apprentice, and later escaped from the turmoil in the kingdom, and came to the wasteland, using his original team to recruit robbers with magical qualifications.

As the power of magic continues to deepen, he has become one of the famous bandits in the wasteland.

Li Zhen nodded tremblingly, if it weren't for the sharing of two thousand golden hooves per month, it would be impossible for this mage bandit to appear here in the cold wind, "No way, I can only ask for your help, rest assured, the cost of your old shot, five hundred golden hooves, how about it." ”

Winke frowned, "It's not about money, although melting the soil is complicated, it is not difficult to arrange a magic array, but the number of people who draw it may be." ”

"Don't worry, as long as you are an old ordinary apprentice, I will pay an additional golden hoof for each of you. ”

A smile instantly appeared on Wink's face, "Okay, leave it to me, it will be completed in two hours!"

Li Zhenshuo can be regarded as seeing the lineup of this bandit, and with an order, thousands of apprentices came directly to the Emerald Ridge through the underground tunnel, and in the vast cold wind, some arranged array symbols, some carved curves, and some fixed points, completely accommodating this land within a radius of 100 meters in the magic array.

Holding a magic wand, Werk gently chanted an ancient incantation, and thousands of apprentices on the side took out a thin magic book, and slowly chanted along with Werke's rhythm.

The team of thousands of people, like a wonderful chorus, the violent northwest wind of the wasteland, became the accompaniment of this team.

With the chanting of the rhythm, a hot current began to ripple in the center of the magic circle.

Such a strange craze instantly attracted the attention of the entire Emerald Ridge, and they all ran out in unison, especially Holrington, who had just returned to the cave, was directly shocked by this terrifying magic fluctuation.

This power is a spell that can only be activated by the Holy Rank.
