Chapter 274: So Some People Have to Be Orphaned After All
When Su Wen returned to the hotel, it was already late at night.
Laetitia's room was still closed, but unlike usual, it was empty, with no half-human figure. It was clear that the half-elf had not returned for about ten hours from the afternoon until now.
Isn't it true that you have liberated yourself and are gone forever?
But Su Wen didn't stay long on this issue, although Laetitia didn't return home at night, but he had already instructed the pit father system to lose a Douglas incarnation to secretly protect her, although this independent incarnation is much weaker than the current one, but it also has the strength of a high-level magician, and can also project modern artillery at critical moments, as long as it does not leave Mtase City, it will not really encounter any danger. Even if Suven wants to know what Lyetitia is doing, he can easily snoop with just one order, but this is not interesting, and he is not a voyeur.
And that's not the end of the story.
Su Wen closed his eyes on the bed to recuperate, but his thoughts entered a deep space.
Su Wen has been here for a long time, when he was halfway through the entrance trial, he rescued Laetitia from the elven intelligence stronghold, and then he was pulled here, and some guy who claimed to be behind the scenes said something inexplicable to him, and then handed him a crystal necklace, saying that it would protect Lyetitia by wearing it. This necklace is still hanging around Laetitia's neck, so Su Wen knew that what he encountered at that time was definitely not a hallucination, and for the identity of the self-proclaimed mastermind behind the scenes, the cheating system was tight-lipped and refused to reveal half a word of information.
However, now Su Wen can come and go freely from here.
This space is a large room of less than 200 square meters, surrounded by impenetrable high walls, and the room is empty, but this is only in its original state. The magic here is that Su Wen is able to "create" things at will, and most of the things he thinks of, as long as they are related to the military industry, can be projected here, and they can be used normally, provided that there is enough energy. According to the explanation of the pit father system, this is actually the transit station of its usual projection objects, where the elemental energy from this world gathers, and the things of the Suwen world are created through equal substitution, and then directly transmitted from here. In addition, it is usually used as a storage space to give Su Wen a chance to perform the stunt of crotch mining. By the way, due to area limitations, many large setups, such as the cannon from the other day, can only be transmitted in batches.
As for why it must be related to the military industry, the explanation of the pit daddy system is very simple.
"That's the setting. ”
It's hard to refute.
'So the mess in Tridis at the beginning, what daggers, magic books, everything, even strange props and antiques, are they also military supplies?'
'No, host, I can't actually summon the things of this world, which I have quietly collected when you can't see them. ’
'Holy!'
All in all, Su Wen reluctantly accepted this setting.
In the past few days, he will come here when he has nothing to do. The biggest advantage of deep space is that the things projected here, as long as they are not thrown out of the real space, can almost completely return energy, that is, he can create all kinds of equipment he wants almost without consumption, and it is not a big deal to throw it back into the energy state.
Therefore, here almost turned into his laboratory and staff.
At this time, Su Wen was fiddling with the holographic sand table in the center of the map, which included almost a quarter of the landforms of the South Continent, and its center was a huge white mountain range, and its peak even reached a height of two meters from the surface of the sand table at Su Wen's waist, and the simulated clouds only floated at half of the peak, even from the perspective of the sand table, it looked particularly majestic.
This is the famous ruins of Longshan on the Glorious Continent, a forbidden place that was even more distorted than the barren land more than a thousand years ago, but after the Second Crusade of the Church of Light, this mountain range has become a dead land, filled with elemental vortices and magical prohibitions that have lasted for thousands of years. Countless powerful adventurers and teams have come here to explore, and some of them have indeed discovered the treasures of the giant dragons and made a lot of money, but the vast majority of them have been sleeping forever in the snow-capped mountains for 10,000 years.
However, one thing is certain, that is, the former Dragon Mountain, after the war between the dragon and the human, not only did not regain peace, but became a little more dangerous - the Church of Light paid a heavy price here to defeat the dragon, but after that, it did not collect a lot of treasure and returned with a feather, although the external statement is that it cannot withstand the death of the war and urgently needs to recuperate, but since then, the Church of Light has never set foot on Dragon Mountain again. Adventurers who later travel to the ruins of Longshan will either suffer from avalanches, be swept into elemental vortexes, and even go deeper into it, and encounter attacks by creatures of unknown origin. As with many other legends, there are many theories about this, but there is no one definitive answer. Fortunately, since the pit daddy system regards this place as a high-priority energy collection point, it will naturally not be as unreliable as the rumors outside.
"So, our ultimate goal is here, here, and here, a total of three Elemental Lord positions. We're going to destroy their nests and take away their energy, right?"
Su Wen pointed to the three red dots on the mountain range that were marked in different locations.
The pit daddy system affirmed: "That's right, so be prepared." ”
Su Wen showed an intriguing smile.
"According to you, when Longshan was breached, the dragon king at that time, Hebrian, sacrificed his life to completely activate the three elements of water, earth, and fire in the snow, rocks, and magma of the Longshan Mountain Range. The obsession in its soul was divided into three and integrated into it, which was equivalent to turning into the entire Dragon Mountain, and it would rather burn the jade than let the Church of Light occupy it. At that time, Hyperion was the undisputed strongest combat power in the whole continent, and the Church of Light sent more than a dozen Judgment Angels to attack at the same time to suppress it, and this strength is the best among the Great Magisters even now, and after it incarnates as an Elemental Lord, its strength will only increase, otherwise the Church of Light will not slip away with its tail between its legs. So, let me face this kind of thing, or three at the same time, it seems that you have a lot of confidence in me and yourself. ”
"The odds of winning head-on are low at the moment, but we can take advantage of it. ”
"Oh, how do you say?"
"The elemental lord who turned into a dragon soul only retains his obsession before his death, that is, he will not allow anyone to touch the treasures of Dragon Mountain, but our purpose has nothing to do with treasures, but the huge energy contained in the activation elements. The snow, rocks, and magma of Dragon Mountain are not in the Dragon Soul's obsession in the first place, and what we need is not something they protect, so there is no need to fight it head-on. ”
“......”
Su Wen was silent for a moment, as if he felt that this was very reasonable, but there was always something wrong.
After a long time, he finally thought of something: "No, according to what you said, snow, rocks and magma, these three main substances on Dragon Mountain are the ingredients that make up the elemental lords, and if we go to snatch these energies, it is equivalent to taking away their bodies? ”
"That's right, so be prepared. ”
Pit daddy system rereading.
"Hmm...... You have been proposing to go to the Longshan Ruins since a long time, and according to your meaning, there are many similar high-energy locations on the mainland, and it must be ranked at the top because it is relatively simpler, and you must have known what to do for a long time. Su Wen carefully observed the mountains on the sand table and muttered, "Then tell me, what is your plan?"
"Four or two thousand pounds, host. Among the three major elemental lords, water and fire are inherently incompatible with each other, and the elemental lords only inherit the obsession of the dragon soul, but do not inherit the memory and experience, so for thousands of years, wars have broken out between them, and each other wants to defeat each other completely, while the remaining earth elemental lords are extremely conservative and will never step out of the territory. The elemental lords are like simple-minded beasts, all we need to do is take advantage of this and make them feel harmless about us, and we can sit back and watch the sandpipes fight each other and skillfully make them lose both. ”
Su Wen thought about it, and then suddenly realized.
"Interesting, I know exactly what you're going to do. ”
But then he frowned slightly.
"However, with the pit daddy system, I don't need to be afraid of the Magus now, and with the help of the cannon arranged in Mtase City, I may not be without the power to fight when facing the Grand Magister. If I successfully absorb the energy of the Longshan Ruins this time, according to you, the amount is far more than one percent of the virtual arena, and what level of power will I be able to control in my hands at that time? Not to mention anything else, take the strategic level of large-yield nuclear weapons as an example, even if it is now, I can get two or three, according to the assessment, this thing can already reach the power of the 9-ring forbidden spell, and the elemental energy required by the 9-ring forbidden spell cannot be completed by even the best archmage. If I really go crazy and want to destroy any country, it's only a matter of minutes, so ...... What kind of threat will we face in the future, is it just a civil war between human beings, or a second race war?"
After saying that, he paused, and asked as if induced, "Is it to kill the gods?"
"I'm sorry, I can't say. ”
Su Wen had already guessed that it would be this answer, so he didn't ask it. Immediately afterward, his consciousness quickly left the deep space and returned to his body lying on the luxurious bed, waking up.
Not because of anything else, but because of the doorbell ringing at the door.
......
When Su Wen opened the door, she saw Laetitia standing at the door, and she was like two people when she left during the day, not only was she extremely excited, but she also changed into a capable leather coat.
"Welcome back. ”
Su Wen said hello casually, and at the same time was a little strange why this girl had to ring the doorbell even though she had a door card, and the dress and the smell on her body looked like she had just come out of the auto repair shop.
And Laetitia didn't seem to have any intention of entering the door, she just looked at Su Wen seriously, as if she wanted to remember his appearance deeply.
This look made Su Wen suddenly have a bad premonition.
Sure enough, after a long time, she said faintly: "Master, if Lyitia does something out of the ordinary, or if it goes too far, will you forgive me?"
"Of course. ”
"So, let's break up. ”
"Huh?!"
