Xia He has observed the Sith many times, and in the depths of the Sith's soul, there is no problem. This made him very pleased, but also a little pitiful.

I have too little time to accompany the Sith, and in addition to teaching magic, many times, I take time to let the Sith watch from the side when I am in the office.

Who's accompanying whom?

Just when the life structure came back, Xia He didn't have to do those trivial things and deal with others.

The rules and regulations on the duke's side are almost there, so help the Sith make a set of practical things, which can be regarded as an exchange of feelings between father and son.

The streamer ring is not an original thing created by Xia He, but a means to protect important people in the Daomen.

In the duke system, the Sith status was quite important. His personal combat effectiveness is outstanding, his level of handling political affairs is higher than that of Xia He, he is young, and his mental state is super stable. Although the people of the dukedom are loyal to Xia He, they are also quite satisfied with this heir.

It's that Xia He wants to concentrate on cultivation one day and abdicate, with this heir here, the duke will not decline.

Xia He also attaches great importance to the protection of the Sith, such as the Fire Raven Legion, which are all carefully selected people. Those guards around the Sith, as well as the war Taoists of the Immortal Mansion.

This is a treatment that no one has, and the War Daoist, if he reaches the first rank, will be a mortal threat to the legend below the sixty level. Moreover, the Taoist priest's ability to escape is also stronger, and his ability to protect people is also diverse.

Xia He also assigned four of the Fire Raven IV combat ships in his Asra Star Fleet to the Sith.

The only Fire Raven II type, which is now given a life structure, is a 128-meter-long battleship, which can accommodate thousands of people to work, and the entire staff team around the duke can be crammed into it, including combat units.

The Raven IV, roughly twenty-four meters long, doesn't have too many members, but it can also carry the Sith and his guards away, or add some members of his personal staff.

Xia He and Sith talked a lot, but they were all about cultivation, and they thought in their hearts to create an interesting equipment for Sith. This kind of thing is not difficult for Taoist priests, as long as there are resources.

Xia He hid in King Kong Mountain, and the days outside were shining, and without him, the main world continued to develop.

The expeditionary force of the empire, not only on the princess's side, but also from the side of Nether City, in fact, the fleet also set off a group, in the west of the empire to the south, all the way to the half-elf empire, looking for a landing site relatively close to Black Pearl City.

On the side of Red Sea City, the imperial army has already broken through one million, and some of them are trying to break through between the mountains, but the Half-Elf Empire does not even have a decent village here, and when it breaks through, it is also facing a path in the primeval forest. The Imperial Armed Forces tried to go deeper, and fought with Warcraft I don't know how many times, so they had to retreat.

The paths in the primeval forest, without a map, are all in the direction of confusion.

Every time you encounter a demonic beast, there are half-elves in the dark to attack, these wild half-elves, very fierce, can use the forest environment, burst out of greater combat power.

The losses of the Empire's army were not large, but they did not dare to go further into the forest.

It is best to use the robot to open the way and develop the primeval forest after killing all the main forces of the half-elves. Even then, a large number of legends will have to be dispatched in the future to clean up the half-elves in this forest.

It is not surprising that the war to destroy the country took hundreds of years.

The main thing is that humans in this world are also well aware that destroying forests will cause devastating damage to the environment. In the end, it is not impossible to get the land by yourself, soil erosion, and desertification. It's true that a mage can transform the environment, but if you spend a million gold coins destroying the forest today, it will cost tens of billions to recover it tomorrow.

The Protector is now on Titan Island, and Lynch is entertaining Autumn Xuanji.

In the newly built port city, Qiu Xuanji sat on the top floor of a strange tower, looked at the sea in the distance, and sighed: "Magic, it's really a very interesting thing. ”

Lynch said: "I'm not a real magician, I can't tell the difference between you and a Taoist. ”

Of course, he and Qiu Xuanji will not have a heart-to-heart, that is, they will say it casually. On the main god panel, among the professions that can be exchanged, there is the item of Taoist.

But he hadn't touched the panel for a long time, and he didn't want to look up any information.

Xia He, on the other hand, gave him the information of the Taoist priest, and his understanding of Qiu Xuanji's profession is quite profound.

"The same is true of technology, technology itself is the analysis and use of the underlying laws. Moreover, the technology is more traceable and can analyze the most basic principles. Magic or Taoism can only be understood when it reaches a certain height. Otherwise, even if the head of the talk is the Tao, it is not really understood. ”

"To be specific, how do you say that?" Lynch asked, intrigued.

"For example, high-tech artillery, how to make the gun mount, what kind of reaction force to withstand, how high the temperature of the gun barrel to withstand, what materials to use, how to polish, are all very fine. I don't particularly understand why such a pattern expresses this meaning and can actually work out. ”

"Even a legendary mage may not be able to understand. ”

"Of course, most legendary mages don't have as much understanding of magic patterns as I do. "Qiu Xuanji is very proud. He is in a very good mood now, the people from the master have come, and on the side of the Tenth Academy of Magic, some are students, some are professors, and they are happy to cooperate with the duke.

"Technology, allowing ordinary people to understand the law, is a very great thing, but at a high level, like magic, only a few people can understand the mystery of technology. There are far fewer high-level scientists than high-level magicians. This is a very difficult path and is not destined to be easy to follow. ”

"If the population is large enough, as long as you are willing to invest, there will still be many scientists. ”

"However, the rules are clear and easy to target. The primitive bow and arrow is the product of clear laws, and there are falling arrow charms in the Daomen. When you shoot an arrow, it will automatically fall to the ground. Technology, if it is not developed to a high level, it still cannot be compared with magic. The plasma gun of the robot is very advanced, and the ultra-high temperature is difficult to defend even for magicians. ”

"Aren't we targeted spells?"

"Then it's a matter of consumption. Qiu Xuanji said: "Defending against plasma guns consumes more than defending ordinary technology shells." The energy consumption of the plasma gun itself is not as good as that of the high-tech artillery. It seems that the technical artillery is useless. However, electromagnetically accelerated shells are more powerful and difficult to target than those fired with gunpowder. ”

"What do you want to say?"

"I said, Lord Duke must have more advanced technology in his hands, but he can't take it out. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to defend yourself. Once you understand the technology stuff, you can quickly reduce the cost. For something like magic, it's much harder to reduce costs. ”

"That's what you say......"

"You know?"

"Of course you know, it's called maintaining a technological edge, Asra said to me. ”

"Technical superiority, what is the significance?"

"Like, the Combined Fireball Technique, you know. Our dukedom, you can let the caster team release, the magic net mage, as long as it exceeds the fifth level, you can put three at a time, five people, at least fifteen, usually the captain is a battle mage, you can put five, put three is to maintain balance and save mental power. ”

"I get that. ”

"There are a lot of squads like ours, and other families are also cultivating magic net mages, but the cost is high and the number is small. On average, the cost of releasing a fireball, let's say a gold coin, we only have one silver coin. The cost of an attack is fifty times higher. ”

"So much!"

"For example, some don't have so many, and some have a bigger gap. Then there is the defense of the combined fireball, defending against a fireball, because of our high technology, the cost is only one silver coin, and they may have to consume one gold coin. Inside and out, the cost of our spells may be one percent of the other party's. If the two sides go to war, if you don't consider the loss of mages, the other party will fight poorer and poorer, which is the technical advantage. ”

"I understand, the technical advantage in spells is easy to maintain, but the technical advantage in technology is easy to disappear and be defended by the opponent. ”

"That's right, now in the Empire, many of the robots of the aristocratic army are also equipped with plasma guns. The cost is up to five times that of ours, and some of the more technical ones are less than three times higher. If it's all magic equipment, the difference is more than ten times. ”

"So the Duke doesn't plan to take out better technological equipment?"

"There are, they can't be imitated, but they are scarce. ”

"Duke's magic skills ......" Qiu Xuanji didn't know what to say, this thing is very weird, the Duke's magic is quite good, in many places, it is leading in terms of technology combined with equipment. This lead, not in terms of power, but in terms of cost.

Therefore, the cost of arming so many armies in the dukedom may be the same as that of others. But in terms of the number and level of equipment, it is much higher.

If you don't have technology, don't build elite troops, it's too expensive.

Inside the harbor, large robots are loading a fleet of supplies, and these robots have metal ships, and the metal wheels themselves can also be transformed and used as limbs to walk. That's for special terrain. In this artificial environment, the ground is flat, and the work efficiency of the wheels is high.

Lynch said, "Princess, what is the order for you?"

"Cooperate with the attack on Black Pearl City, and the attack must be launched at the end of the month, even if it is a few shots from afar. ”

"Half-elves aren't that easy to fight, are they?"

"Of course, further west, there is a large city of half-elves. There are many troops over there, and they also have the ability to go to sea to fight. However, the gap between the two warships is large, and it will be too late when the half-elves understand. The princess is planning to attack the Black Pearl to lure the opponent's main fleet out and annihilate it in one fell swoop. Without the threat of the fleet, it will not be a problem to fight in the future"
