After enjoying a novel meal at the Forest House Hotel, the two outsiders returned to the streets of the town with satisfaction, this time they came to the park, and when they saw the benches set up outside, they didn't know what they were for, until some people who came to the park did it, and they realized that it was a setting for people who were tired of walking.

So the two of them simply sat on an idle bench, observing the movements of passers-by, listening to the people in the neighborhood talking about the hottest topics in Dalaran lately.

After a while, they heard something of interest.

"It seems that there is really an elven tribe here in Dalaran, and its strength is very extraordinary!"

The other cloaked man nodded and said, "Seeing is believing, let's listen to what they said about where those elves live, and then go back and report back when we find out clearly!"

While the two outsiders quietly approached the Green Cloak Forest based on the information they had received from the inhabitants of Dalaran, Donald, the lord, was completely unaware.

It's no wonder that the personnel of his intelligence department are derelict in their duties, but in fact, these days, there are too many outsiders dressed like those two, most of them are spies sent by foreign nobles or a certain force to observe the strength and situation of Dalaran. Since these spies were just looking at them and were not a threat to Dalaran, those intelligence officers just sent people to pay attention to them and keep track of their whereabouts at any time, and did not deal with them at the root of the matter.

At this time, Donald was busy preparing for the next big thing, and the plan to build the Mage Tower mentioned earlier was ready to be implemented.

Originally, he had made a promise to Chris and Malf and the other three mages to build a mage tower, but now that the conditions were met, Donald described his idea to his teacher Messer.

After hearing this, the old mage thought for a while, nodded and said: "It's also time, while the forces are still observing our actual situation, it is better to build the mage tower first, and when the time comes, there will be a mage tower in Dalaran, and there will be a legendary dragon in the Emerald Dream Islands, so there is no need to worry about the security of the two territories at all!"

"That's right! I've collected almost all kinds of magic materials, especially Mithril, plus the harvest of the last underground world, it is estimated that there is more than enough to build two high mage towers, and now there is only one blueprint missing!"

The Mage Tower is not something that can be built casually, it is much more than a simple building built by a mage.

The true mage tower must be designed and built using arcane blueprints, and it contains a large mage structure composed of various functional arcane circles that can absorb the power of the major elemental planes, and even the radiation, magical turbulence, and other mysterious forces of the universe can be used by the mage tower.

Although his faction has an ancient heritage, Messer does not have the blueprints to build the Mage Tower. As far as he knew, the only blueprint for the construction of the High Mage Tower of Celt had been kept in the Mage Tower of the Kingdom Mage Guild, and it was an absolutely high price to obtain.

The old mage has also been yearning for the mage tower for a long time, and immediately got up and said: "I'll go to the royal capital and negotiate with the mage association, if it goes well, I can get the drawings and start construction in a few days!"

Donaldella lives with the teacher who is walking out.

"Teacher, you better go by airship! The speed is not slow and saves mana, by the way, I also delivered the three airships ordered by the royal family, I have a list for you, if the Mage Association agrees to the above conditions, you can confirm this transaction, if they want the lion to open their mouths, they don't have to pay attention to the fact that he is not the only one in this world who has the Mage Tower blueprints for sale!"

The old mage nodded understandingly, took the list handed by Donald, and prepared to rush to the royal capital Kosovo.

The mages of the northern county are on the edge of the kingdom's territory, and they have not been able to build a mage tower, even if a master like Messer gathers the entire northern county mage, he does not have the ability and conditions to build it, and only the royal capital has a high-level mage tower in the entire Celt, and the others are all elementary mage towers, and the power is much weaker.

It is said that the mage kingdom bōlin has a country with a thousand towers, because the mage tower in bōlin is usually able to build a primary mage tower in the baron-level aristocratic territory, and the number of mage towers in some powerful mage lord territories is more than one, and there are hundreds of large and small mage towers in the entire kingdom, it is said that a demon disaster appeared hundreds of years ago in the legendary realm of powerful demons, leading tens of thousands of demons to fail to attack a hundred miles away from the bō forest, and they also lost most of their own.

It really has the powerful defense ability of the mage tower, and the role of these mages is a strong fortress for the master, but for the invader it is like a turtle with thorns, it is too hateful, and in the end, those demons have no choice but to divert to other human territories.

As a mage of alchemy and elemental silver, although Messer is not as strong as gold who has already violated the law of mō, he has surpassed most silver powerhouses, and he is an important person like an alchemy master, and his help to the development of the kingdom's power is not much different from that of ordinary gold powerhouses.

Originally, Donald thought that with his teacher coming forward, the Mage Association should give a face, after all, the five giants of the Mage Association were not of the same mind, and the only ones he had offended before were a few mages, and there must be orthodox mages in the true sense among them.

But he still underestimated the greed of the Mage Association, in order to obtain the drawings of the Mage Tower, he had already made the name of discovering some ancient mage legacies, and paid for mage items that were difficult to find in the outside world, such as directional teleportation scrolls and gargoyle golems, and even prepared a horned eagle beast demon pet that was full of power for mages, with a total value of no less than 100,000 gold soles, but the Mage Association was not satisfied.

Even with his teacher Messer in the middle, the higher-ups of the Mage Guild lowered their demands a lot, but the price was still not acceptable to Donald.

Those mages who were bent on falling into the eyes of money also demanded the core technology of building the alchemy airship, as well as five young dragons, at the cost of paying for the mage tower blueprints.

"These greedy old widows, sooner or later, they will establish a powerful mage organization and compare them to them!"

After the old mage returned, Donald got the details of the discussion, and couldn't help but curse a few words of hatred.

Since the Mage Guild doesn't work, then the only way to ask the teacher to go to the southern side of the continent and buy the blueprints from Bōlin or Gardret are all remnants of the Bannai Empire, and it is estimated that the other party will also be happy to see another increasingly powerful mage force in the human kingdom.

Just as the old mage Messer was about to set off again to take the airship to Leighton Harbor. Then when they sailed out to sea, the contemporary lady of the Ansel family, the eldest princess of Khanty, Edwina, suddenly came to visit.

The Ferdinand siblings had only left a few days ago, and the lady had come to visit for some reason, and after welcoming the marquise into the lord's palace, she had not yet opened her mouth to ask, and the other party explained her intention.

"I heard that Donald is going to build a mage tower?"

The news that Donald was going to build a mage tower for his teacher had reached the upper echelons of the royal capital through the mouths of the mages, and the Ansels had received news from the royal family that Donald was negotiating with the Mage Guild in exchange for the blueprints for the construction of the mage tower.

Donald was not surprised that the Ansel family could get the news, so he naturally nodded and said, "Yes, madam, now that the territory conditions are met, and I have also been promoted to gold, it is time to build a mage tower to strengthen the defense!"

Edvena looked at Donald with fiery eyes, this young mage can be said to have grown up in her attention, and now she has grown to the point of a golden archmage, and she herself has not made much progress in the realm strength of the middle of the silver level, for the realm of the golden archmage, she has been longing for a long time, so she naturally wants to find an opportunity to ask Donald about the experience of breaking through the golden rank.

But for now, let's get down to business.

"We also have a copy of the construction blueprint of the Mage Tower in the Ansel family, which is only higher than the one in the Mage Guild, and of course the cost of the construction materials is also correspondingly much higher, if you only plan to build an ordinary High Mage Tower, then you have to go to Bōlin or Gardrei to buy it!"

"Really?"

"Naturally, I won't lie to you, our family's part is the original Arcane Tower blueprint, not the later remodeled Mage Tower!"

Donald was overjoyed to hear the news.

You must know that the mage tower in later generations is just the basic control device on the Sky City, the highest achievement of the Great Arcanist Empire, which is used to control the arcane circle to stabilize the elements, increase the power of spells, and defend against attacks.

In addition to the core of the Sky Castle, there are at least dozens of such buildings on top of each Sky Castle.

Later generations of mages found the original shape and blueprints of the mage tower from the fallen sky city and other ancient arcane ruins, and changed some places where the spell level was not up to at the time, so the mage built the mage tower exclusively.

The Ansel family also kept this copy of the Mage Tower construction blueprints, and unlike the existing Mage Tower drawings with modified structures, this is the original blueprint inherited from the era of the Ancient Arcanist Empire, although it is not the highest level of goods, but its value and significance are extraordinary.

It is said that these things were prepared for the senior arcanists in the family at that time, as a follower family of the Great Arcanist Lord, although the Ansel family is famous for its powerful sword master inheritance, there will always be a few members of the family with Arcanist talents, and the Grand Arcanist Lord always rewards his loyal followers, so these surviving rewards have become one of the powerful foundations of the Ansel family after a thousand years.

Chapter 232 The construction of the Mage Tower (there are still 1,000 recommended votes to 30,000, everyone support it!!)

Donald asked about the origin and difference between the drawing and the Mage's Guild's.

"These two drawings are the collections of Ansel and the Celt family, and the royal family used their descendants to modify the drawings of the mage tower as a condition, so that the ancestors of the five golden mages of the Mage Association stayed in Selt, and made a vow to protect this land for two thousand years, and now those Lou things in the Mage Association are just making money with other people's things!"

The eldest princess and marquise of the empire said this with even more disdain.

"The mage kingdom of Bōlin has already shared most of the ancient arcane materials, including the drawings of the mage tower, to all the mages above silver in the kingdom hundreds of years ago, and they only need to contribute or get the corresponding information at a clear price. Although Gardre's knowledge remained in the hands of the aristocracy, it could be obtained at some cost. It's just a drawing, and it's not something irreplaceable, and only the old diehards of the Mage Guild who are getting worse are still clinging to it, it seems that they have been in the Northland for too long, and they are used to it, and they have seized this opportunity to make a fortune. ”

"As for the difference between these two drawings, I don't know if Donald you know the type of mage tower!"

Donald replied, "I don't know much, I only know that in addition to the primary, intermediate and advanced mage towers, there are also arcane towers built by ancient arcanists, and I don't know much about the situation of arcane towers."

"Then I'll introduce you to it and it will be easy to understand!"

I only heard Edwina say: "The arcane towers built by the arcanists are divided into normal, city,

There are four categories of special types and heterotopic types. ”

"These types are distinguished by the choice of construction location, the ordinary type is the mage tower built in the general wilderness, forest or desert terrain, this is the lowest cost of the arcane tower except for the city type, but it is also at least fifty percent higher than the cost of the mage tower designed later, but the ability of the corresponding arcane tower is at least twice as high as the ordinary high mage tower, so the cost of more huā is also very cost-effective!, , Donald nodded in agreement, the last thing he lacks now is funds, and the reserve of magic materials is also sufficient, and if you want to build it, you must naturally build the best.

Then Edvina said: "The cost of the city type is about thirty percent lower than that of the ordinary type, although it is stronger than the function of the mage tower in later generations, but it is also limited, and the city is probably the most unsuitable place for mages to build towers, although there will be some benefits because of this choice, but in terms of summoning powerful creatures or studying knowledge of other planes, the city mage tower is basically of little value, so I don't recommend you to choose this!"

"The above are the two types of mage towers contained in the drawings in our family's collection, as for the more precious special type and the xenoplane type, it was also a top-notch arcane creation in the Arcanist era, and I am afraid that it can only exist in the ruins. ”

For example, a mage can build his mage tower on the slope of the crater and draw fire energy from the volcano. When he wants to summon fire creatures in the tower, the aura around the tower will allow him to summon more powerful creatures to his advantage. The same goes for spells related to releasing the fire elemental. In addition to the basic arcane circle, the materials used to build the Mage Tower and its surroundings allow it to gain access to many benefits, bonuses, and special abilities. ”

"Among this kind of special mage towers, the highest value is the tower in the clouds! This kind of arcane tower built in the sky and clouds is the legendary air fortress, which is the prototype of the sky city, with this air fortress, it is basically invincible in the main world, unless it is a demigod-level opponent to attack, otherwise even the legendary archmage can only look at the clouds and sigh!"

"As for the Alien Plane Mage Tower, as you can guess from the name, it is to build the Mage Tower in the Otherworldly Plane, establish a stable teleportation channel with the main world, and can travel between the two planes at any time. Even a powerful arcanist can build a tower in a small half-plane, and then by controlling the mage tower, he can develop this half-plane into a small world under his own control, similar to the kingdom of the gods!"

As Donald listened to these introductions, his mind circled several times, and he longed for the powerful feats that those powerful arcanists could achieve.

However, the drawings of the powerful mage towers behind him are extinct, so he can only think about it in his heart, hoping that the Book of Truth will not disappoint him, and he can deduce more powerful functions through the drawings of the Ansel's family.

It was not the first time that the Ansel family had dealt with Donald, whether it was the friendship between them or the benefits that the two transactions brought to them, they were very relieved of each other, so Edvina directly brought the drawings.

The second biggest difference between the blueprints of this Arcane Tower and the later Mage Towers is that each blueprint is unique, and there is a ban on the Arcane Master at the door, and after using it once, it will completely melt into the magic circle of the Mage Tower. Of course, there is a way to crack this kind of ban.1 But it's a true god-level existence, and if you want to crack it, you have to make some effort, otherwise a strong contact with the ban can only trigger the self-destruct program.

Therefore, the blueprints of the Arcane Tower are one less than one copy, and the value is much more valuable than those of the Mage Tower drawings that have been changed by the mages of the past generations.

In the end, the two sides agreed to exchange three directional teleportation scrolls, five pairs of domesticated horned eagle beasts, fifteen gargoyle alchemy golems, and ten bottles of moonlight elf wine that could increase the spiritual potential of the mage, in exchange for the blueprints of the arcane tower.

In the eyes of outsiders, the value of the things that Donald paid for was at least more than a hundred thousand gold soles, and they were all rare treasures that could not be bought outside. Especially precious and rare are rare magic pets like the Horned Eagle Beast, and alchemical puppets like Gargoyles that have an infinite lifespan and can be passed down from generation to generation.

However, for Donald, it was only 1,400 units of spiritual power and less than a drop of divine energy.

"The drawings have been handed over to you, I need to escort these things back to the family arrangement as soon as possible, so I won't stay with you for more!"

After the transaction was completed, Donald, who was in a good mood, said with a smile: "Madam, next time you come, you must stay for a few more days, not that I brag, now the environment of Dalaran is also one of the best in the entire continent, with a comfortable environment that is not available in the three major manors of the kingdom, and some convenient facilities are very suitable for us mages, let alone ordinary people!"

"Yes! Your stone road is very well repaired, and our marquis will have to learn from you in the future!

When Edwina came, she also took a look at the changes in Dalaran, as an ally who had not been formally agreed, the Ansel family business was always keeping an eye on Donald's situation, and naturally knew Dalaran's current reputation.

However, as the most powerful family in the military, the Ansel family is not concerned with various living facilities, but on the smooth stone road of Dalaran.

It's not that the upper echelons of Celt don't want to build that kind of road, but that there are no modern machinery and materials in Donald's previous life, and a gravel road several kilometers long requires thousands of laborers to build for at least half a year.

The wide and smooth road has no small impact on military operations, and if the whole of Celt is a good road like Dalaran, then any border problem can be mobilized by the nearby kingdom troops in half a day.

It's a pity that such a big project requires at least hundreds of mages with more than silver to participate, I'm afraid the entire kingdom can't make up this number, even if there are enough mages willing to join, they don't have the infinite power of the mountain giants and alchemy puppets of Dalaran, and the project is too large, so as not to waste money and people.

With the drawings in hand, Donald began to choose the location of the mage tower and prepare the base materials.

However, before construction began, Donald had to hand over the drawings to the Book of Truth to scan and see if he could crack them.

The Book of Truth did not disappoint Donald, and he soon entered a state of deduction, and it took about a day and a night to crack the complete drawings, scan and store them all.

The more powerful high-level artifacts can be reproduced at any time to create a completely unique drawing, and even outside of the main body of the Mage Tower, some other accessories and buildings can be directly embodied in the Creation Factory.

This undoubtedly greatly facilitated the process of building the Mage Tower.

After scanning it, Donald picked up the drawing and looked at it.

The contents of the thick dozen or so sheepskin drawings are as responsible as those architectural engineering drawings in previous lives, including not only arcane geometry, energy drain circle, summoning circle, otherworldly oath circle, outbuilding device element pool, design drawings of arcane huā garden, and even mechanical devices and traps that do not know how to use magic at all.

In short, Donald got dizzy after reading a few of them, and had to gather all the mages to come and cooperate with the analysis, and assign the ancillary drawings to individuals, so that the speed of analyzing the drawings was accelerated.

Although the function of the Mage Tower is magical and powerful, it also needs to be built brick by brick like ordinary house buildings. The basic material is a stone called white stone from the central part of the kingdom.

In Donald's opinion, this kind of stone is very similar to the jade rough in the previous life, which is the waste gas stone when mining elemental spars, but because of its solidity and whiteness, and faintly with some weak elemental energy and high elemental affinity, it is very popular with mages and nobles, and it is a high-grade building material that is ten times more valuable than ordinary mountain stones.

Donald is interested in the elemental affinity of the white stone, as well as the genus xìng, which can store a small amount of elemental energy. It is said that the Arcanists in ancient times, the Arcane Towers on the Sky City were all made of precious magic stones, and at that time, almost all the magic stones of the Overworld were mined, and many powerful Arcanists crossed the space to the Otherworld to collect materials.

Although the white stone is far from being compared with the magic stone that has become extinct, it is relatively rich in reserves, and it is also the most suitable choice at the moment.

It's a big deal, and then I can strengthen the power of the Mage Tower with other precious materials!

The High Mage Tower in the royal capital was only built with one-tenth of the white stone, and the rest was ordinary hard rock. ！。
