Two days later.

Deep in the sun-drenched Skylark Mountains, a majestic castle rises over the hills. Far from the world, it was surrounded by valleys, mountains, and woods, and through the dense trees there was a faint meandering path through the valley that led to the castle, the path of the camele's caravan. The valleys flanked the castle with spacious pens in which a few grooms tended to herds of camel glands, tinkling blacksmiths, huge brick kilns with straight chimneys, tanning leather workshops, and of course rows of houses, warehouses and farmland.

Standing on the walls of the fortress, Victor looked down on the buildings in the valley and wondered if he should give this place a name for a small town.

He built the mountain fortress with the intention of preparing a hidden hideout for himself, against Ant-Man and also against Sylvia. Ignorant of the Spirit Knights, he feared that he would be placed under house arrest by the Yorks, so he devised a backup plan before going to Rose Manor, including the construction of this secret base.

Who knows, Sylvia has become his most beloved companion, but the alchemical creatures have followed his will and built the mountain fortress to its current size. It can accommodate more than 3,000 people, the production facilities are complete, and the fort reserves enough supplies for 500 soldiers to hold on for three years, which is no less than an ordinary military town.

However, the mountain fortress is now particularly deserted, with less than 80 craftsmen and fortress guards in the production area combined. In fact, as Victor continues to send alchemist humans outward, the mountain fortress has been transformed from a production base into a training base, mainly responsible for teaching social knowledge and some new skills to the newly created alchemist humans, and also has the function of processing and stockpiling rare materials.

The mountain fortress has always maintained a mining and smelting team of 120 people, and in the mountainous area more than 70 kilometers to the north, a fire crystal furnace has been built, and the mining team mines minerals, smelts them into refined iron ingots and silver on the spot, and then transports them back to the mountain fortress with camel antelope. In addition, there is also a forward base in the swamp on the west side of the fortress, where the saroma iron ore, six-legged crocodile and giant snake leather, and other rare Zesheng resources collected by the lizardmen and goblins are transported back to the fortress through the cliff crane blue of the forward base, processed and stored.

Aside from some perishable biological resources, the Mountain Fortress no longer exports supplies, but the total amount of materials it has in store is staggering, and the leather of the six-legged crocodile and the giant snake alone can make 500 sets of top-grade leather armor. Like the Thorsilver Heavy Crossbow, Ant-Man Armor, Mithril Bars, Thorium Orbs, and Adamantite Bars all lay quietly in the vaults of the fortress.

"It's like a seed that is dormant in the ground, and you don't know when it will sprout...... From now on, it will be called Sprout Town. Victor turned his head and asked with a smile at the alchemy auxiliaries approaching from behind, "Busso, Sprout Town, Sprout Castle, what do you think?"

"My lord, as long as you are happy, this place is called Sprout Town. Busso stepped forward, opened the long wooden box in his hand, and said, "This is the steel arrow of Seyinsa made according to your request. ”

Inside the box were two slender steel cones, their color as black as night, one end sharp and sharp, the other like the tail of an arrow, but without feathers.

Victor picked one up, put it in his hand and folded it gently, the steel arrow of Seyinsa bent easily, and quickly bounced up, and the afterimage of the arrow edge trembled, vibrating like the buzz of a wild bee's wings.

This is the Arrow of Thurium Steel, made by merging the Irons of Salon with the Silver, a transcendent arrow that can bend freely and infuse the Void Element.

"Give me a bow. ”

Taking the Eagle Wing Warbow from Shak's hand, and placing the transcendent arrow that was as black as night on the spider silk bowstring, Victor's eyes lit up with golden brilliance, entering a state of transcendence, stimulating surge and wind, his arms were slightly forced, and the metal warbow was filled with 560 pounds in an instant, and the blue-black air flow surrounded the steel arrow of Seyinsa, quickly turning into an indigo void wind element.

A magical scene appeared, the violent Void Wind Elemental merged with Victor's mind into the Celestial Arrow, and the strange luster of the indigo surge disappeared, revealing the Celestial Arrow, which was as dark as the night sky.

At this moment, Victor had an additional perspective—the perspective of the steel arrow, and he realized that this was a 3.6-meter-diameter blind feeling attached to the arrow infused with the Void Wind Element, which was another form of wind language. A concept popped into my mind:

Semi-elemental magic arrow!

Taking into account both the blindness and the naked eye at the same time caused a great burden on Victor's mental power, he didn't have time to think about it, he directly entered the apocalypse, his eyes turned golden, the flow of time seemed to be slowed down fifty times, and as soon as his fingers were loosened, the dark and dull magic arrow came out of the string and shot into the sky at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye. But in his blindness, in the spherical area of 3.6 meters around the arrow, the wind element was sucked into the magic arrow in a relay of layers, transforming into the void wind element, swimming slowly and flexibly in the air, and the golden pupils saw a slender black demon snake, shooting and swimming in the air at a speed of 531 meters per second.

It was a very peculiar feeling, the Celeinsa Steel Arrow, infused with the Void Wind element, seemed to come to life, becoming a doppelganger of Victor, and with his thoughts, it changed direction and flew, it turned a corner, and deftly swam through the gaps in the branches, burrowing into the trunk of the hemlock tree, which was as hard as iron. The wind element was isolated by wood, Victor lost control of the "clone", and the void wind element exploded instantly, cutting the hemlock trunk into pieces all over the sky, and with a click, the crown collapsed and smashed to the ground, and the magic arrow had pierced through the hard trunk and flew without a trace.

Victor lifts the apocalypse, and X-3 quickly gives test results.

Tracking magic arrows, the arrow flight speed is 461 meters per second, the control range is 1108 meters, and the maximum control time is 3.6 seconds, the magic arrow has the characteristics of semi-elementalization, the arrow is attached to the sharp, armor-piercing attributes, the void wind element is bound by the Salon's magic iron, becoming more condensed, causing physical damage and void wind element damage to the target at the same time, when the magic arrow is shot into the target's body, the infused void wind element will explode inside, so it poses a mortal threat to enemies with strong life and elemental resistance.

Due to the high level of mental power required to control the tracking arrows, Victor must enter the Apocalypse state and cannot move while directing the arrows. Each time he performs the Tracking Arrow Skill, the natural recovery time for energy consumption is 26 minutes, and with his current mental attributes, he can use the Tracking Arrow 3 times in a row.

Tough!

It can be said that the semi-elemental tracking magic arrow has surpassed the old enemy and become Victor's most powerful means of attack. With this skill, he is now a true legendary archer, and even the Golden Knight will have a hard time fending off the Tracking Arrow three times in a row.

Of course, if you use the Tracking Arrow three times in a row, he is no different from a dead fish.

A distance of one thousand meters is not far at all for a golden-tier creature.

Victor stroked a white crystal ring on the middle finger of his left hand, and an idea gradually came to him.

Two days ago, he asked Father Miller about the flickering of the void. Miller immediately said that he didn't know anything about the direct use of the Void Element, and he really couldn't help it.

Of course, Victor couldn't just give up, following the gods all the way, chattering endlessly. Miller couldn't help but be entangled by him, so he made him a magic ring. And this ring can cast 4 divine protections.

Divine Shelter can comprehensively improve the attributes of the four elements, and has the effect of healing, which can help the Golden Knight resist the erosion of the Elemental Sea, reach the Legendary Realm within 30 seconds, and control the Void Elemental by three times. It belongs to the category of fifth-level divine arts, and the level 5 priest can only perform it once in three days, and the level 6 priest can only perform it once a day, but it is impossible for them to engrave the holy protection into the holy crystal. Miller easily made a magic ring.

Victor had no idea how precious the ring was, and used up a sacred refuge on the spot. Surprisingly well, he actively stimulated the Void Flicker, and retained his self-awareness in the process, although he was not yet able to make thoughts and superfluous movements, but he experienced the state of elementalization firsthand. In his perception, the original chaos turned into a black and white blurred environment, time was almost frozen, but he was able to reach the predetermined destination with the inertia of his will. In the real world, his displacement is like a flicker, but this is not really flickering, there will still be a journey process and time consumption, from the starting point to the destination there must be a passage for the flow of the wind element, unable to directly pass through the obstacle. Therefore it should not be called Void Flickering, but Void Walking.

Theoretically, Victor could use the Void Walk continuously within 30 seconds of activating the Divine Ring, but his spiritual power could only support him to walk 238 meters. In the eyes of others, he flickered more than two hundred meters at a time, and if there was a shelter around him, walking through the void and going around the back, then others would only think that he would suddenly disappear.

Needless to say, the actual combat effect of Void Walk is very rare, and most importantly, the experience of elementalization is very rare. Victor walked once, failing to comprehend the mysteries of the Wind Elemental Sea, but seeing the way forward.

To put it bluntly, it's actually very simple, Divine Shelter enhances Victor's spiritual power, which is why he has Void Walking, as long as he reaches the corresponding spiritual attributes, he can be regarded as mastering the Void Walking talent. With this top-level talent, he can always comprehend the mysteries of the Wind Elemental Sea, so as to obtain a higher legal authority and step into the ranks of the powerhouses of the Holy Domain.

Things are always easier said than done. Divine Asylum increased Victor's spiritual attributes by 0.3 times, which is equivalent to 47 points of total spiritual attributes, and it is still very difficult for his spiritual power to reach this height. Before that, the Holy Shelter was a very important means of saving lives and fighting back.

Victor wanted Miller to make up for the consumed magic, but Miller said that this white crystal ring was a gift, and when it was broken, he could only get a new one. At the same time, he asks Victor to owe him a promise.

The favor of the god is not so easy to owe, and if he can find a solution, Victor is not willing to trouble Miller.

The semi-elemental magic arrow gave him an idea.

The original limit distance for controlling the Void Wind Element was more than 900 meters, and the control distance of the Tracking Magic Arrow reached 1,100 meters, that was because the Void Wind Element's escape characteristics required more spiritual power to restrain it, while the semi-elementalization of the Salon's Magic Iron was inherently able to restrain the Void Wind Element, reducing the spiritual consumption...... Void Walking works the same way as tracking magic arrows, and if I have a set of armor made of Saron Magic Iron, I can also reduce the mental power cost of Void Walking...... Perhaps, the spiritual attribute of Void Walking does not need to be as high as 47 points, and I can use extraordinary equipment to reduce some spiritual loss, and maybe I can reach the minimum conditions for Void Walking.

The more Victor thought about it, the more excited he became, and asked, "Busso, is the Sharon magic iron in the Sprout Castle enough to make a set of Thorsilver armor?"

Busso shook his head and said, "It's not enough. ”

Frustrated, Victor raised another arrow and asked, "How many of these arrows can you make?"

"About 25 sticks. ”

"Why is it like that?!" Victor was shocked and then angry, and scolded: "Half-dragon people don't work hard to mine, and are they busy going into the water to catch fish all day long?"

Busso said: "My lord, for more than a year, the materials traded between the half-dragon tribe and the advance base have become less and less, and the total amount of transactions last year was less than 20% of the year before. ”

Victor's eyes froze, and he asked in a deep voice, "So far, how many metal spears have been traded between the advance base and the half-dragons?"

"More than 3,200 sticks. ”

Victor touched his chin and muttered to himself, "So many spears...... No wonder they don't have the motivation to trade anymore. They're preparing for a bloody battle with other half-dragon tribes...... If the Half-Dragon tribe is gone, who will take care of those goblin slaves?"

Thinking of the exaggerated reproduction rate of the goblins, Victor suddenly felt a pain in his head and commanded:

"Call me both Jack and Emerson!"
