It seems that these buildings built by Luo Ming are actually a city in a mountain, although they save man-hours and costs, and do not reduce reliability, but they are just ordinary buildings no matter how you look at them.

However, the truth is definitely not that simple.

Arianna and her little brothers wandered around the construction site for the past two days, spending the rest of their time blessing beams and pillars and bricks and stones, except for treating those who had been injured at work.

Of course, if every brick had to be blessed, Ariana wouldn't have to do anything else for the next few months, she had just blessed the main pillars and a few special bricks.

In the ancient Eastern kingdoms of another world, this technique was called "Feng Shui" or "Kanyu".

Sensing the flow of the leylines, and adjusting and guiding them through the layout of the building, transforming its power into a usable one...... It was a high level of science, but it wasn't too difficult for Ariana.

Of course, she is not doing this now, not planning to create a good feng shui, to attract wealth and treasure, and to drive away evil spirits.

In fact, the effect of this is also very limited, not to say that it is useless at all, but the input and output are not proportional.

Although the power of the earth is majestic, most of them are hidden deep underground, such as ore veins and even lava and plate movements, and it is almost impossible for humans to interfere with such great forces when they do so much on the surface.

And the power on the surface of the earth is too difficult to influence people's "luck".

Ariana's real purpose was to fix the surface tributaries of a leyline, make it less volatile, make it smoother, and let it be revealed.

For example, before giving an injection, you need to stabilize the patient's arm, and then tie the arm with a rubber band to make the blood vessels bulge and make it easier to spot, and then you can prick the needle. After the needle is inserted into the blood vessel, it is necessary to apply adhesive tape to prevent it from falling off.

And the needle that is to be inserted into the "blood vessel" of the leyline is the base of the Mage Tower.

The mage tower may not be accurate, after all, although there are individual mages under Luo Ming, and not long ago, there was a captured original cultist mage who surrendered and surrendered, but among them, let alone being able to fight, even if the level is normal, there are only less than half of them.

If you let these third-rate mages run over and preside over such a mage tower, let alone let it function normally, maybe even the normal operation will go wrong - you let a fishing boat drive the battleship, and it will be good if it doesn't sink.

Of course, it is still a mage tower to the outside world, but the internal structure is not exactly the same as the popular mage tower today.

There are laboratories inside, greenhouses for cultivating special plants, and there is even a secret summoning room that leads to the lower realms, with plenty of room reserved for remodeling...... In addition, the most important function that Luo Ming needs now is to install the fragments of the Arcane Eye in the tower, and then extract energy from the leylines and store it in a dedicated energy pool for its consumption.

According to Aya's estimates, this way, the Arcane Eye can scan as far as 3.2 kilometers away, and if it is scanned at the lowest power, it can be scanned four times a day.

Of course, it is easy to be dodged by people when using the lowest power scanning, but the enemy is not the power of an unpredictable prophet, how could he know in advance that Luo Ming had such a large-scale reconnaissance measure, and start hiding in advance from 3.2 kilometers away?

With such scanning measures, there are plenty of chances to spot enemies that are sneaking in.

Of course, compared to ordinary one-story dwellings and not-so-tall walls, the construction of the Mage Tower is obviously more than ten times more difficult.

But fortunately, what Luo Ming wants to build is not the kind of tall mage tower, but just a short version - if he learns those royal mage towers in Brandon, the capital of the principality, Luo Ming has to let all his subordinates go into battle, and spend tens of thousands of gold coins to succeed.

It's an abbreviated version, with almost all the features that aren't needed today, but it's also 16 meters high, which is quite a lot.

Fortunately, he still has this, Luo Ming looked at the few props placed on the table in front of him and smiled.

First of all, there are four egg-sized crystals of mixed colors placed on the upholstery, and if the layman sees it, he will only think that it is a rare mixed color gemstone, and it can be carved into a special handicraft according to its different colors, which must be quite valuable.

But in fact, no one dared to do this - this was a magic crystal, a kind of unstable energy storage substance, and the energy contained in each one was almost one-third of Luo Ming's current Dou Qi reserves, enough to blow an ordinary swordsman half to death.

The solid-colored magic crystal is a little more stable, and it is generally fine if it is not stimulated by special means - but this variegated magic crystal is the product of a mixture of different magical powers, which is quite unstable, and if you have to sculpt it, it is likely to disrupt its magical balance and cause an explosion.

Solid-colored crystals are precious energy sources, and variegated crystals are of little use other than the occasional use as a self-detonation prop.

Countries simply restricted the production of this variegated magic crystal from the beginning of the mines, preventing them from entering the market and preventing them from being widely used for assassination.

Luo Ming also got these pieces through the door of the archmage Gandhi.

This kind of energy is very complicated, even if he uses Cangyan, it is difficult to convert it into his own power, either he will give up a large amount of impurities, causing a huge waste, or it will be detrimental to Luo Ming himself - the mixed energy will flow into the body if he is not careful, there will be internal injuries.

But that doesn't stop him from using it as a consumable.

In addition to the hedrons, there were two magic scrolls on the table, which were expensive just by looking at the high-quality parchment and the gold and silver threads on the paper.

Both scrolls are inner ring spells, one "summons large elemental life" made by Gandhi himself, and the other "Advanced Clay to Stone" is also made by other archmages with whom Gandhi was familiar, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are worth a lot of money - if each one is put up for auction, it is enough to buy two or three ordinary small castles.

If you calculate the cost alone, a scroll is at least 500 gold coins. And making such a scroll is not a small loss for the archmage, which is an intangible expense.

Gandhi Ken took out these two scrolls and gave them to Luo Ming, which can be said to be a great help.

But if it weren't for Luo Ming, but anyone else, who had obtained these two scrolls, he wouldn't have been able to accomplish what he was doing now.
