5. Foothold Chapter 223: Nature's Wrath - Chapter 224: Promotion to Gold
The middle and lower reaches of the Izumo River are the narrowest and 100 meters wide, and the estuary is on the left side of the port area of Layton Harbor, which is a natural excellent shipping channel, and the residents of the coastal villages and towns in the eastern part of the northern part of the eastern county can reach the port of Layton, the capital of the eastern county.
Compared with the horse-drawn carriage, which saves several times the time, the Izumo River is undoubtedly a more convenient and faster transportation channel for trade between the two places.
Although the water level of the Wudong River opened up by Dalaran is still relatively shallow, and only small sampans and canoes can be accommodated, and it cannot be loaded with large ships to transport goods, but it is not too much to travel from Dalaran to the Izumo River outside Lord Gerry's territory through Hongfeng Town, and it is only a long time to get ready for the boats to take the waterway all the way to Leighton Harbor.
The trade plan of the two territories1 is much more complicated than Donald's previous petty fights, and all aspects have to be jointly agreed, but there is Augusta as a business talent in this regard, and Donald is not dissatisfied, just leave it to him to be in charge.
As for communication, there is Jesse, the diplomat of Dalaran, Tang Dide does not have to come forward directly, this guy represents Dalaran every day to participate in banquets or tea parties held by various nobles, and he seems to be very comfortable among the nobles of Layton Harbor, worthy of being a noble child from the royal capital.
Donald, who had nothing to do and couldn't leave Layton Harbor, had to spend the rest of his time in cultivation except for accompanying Catherine and attending some necessary occasions every day.
During this period, the female sword saint Abel also came to Donald to learn a few times, but after Donald's previous two experiences, he had reached a bottleneck in swordsmanship, and unless he was promoted to gold, he would not be able to improve quickly overnight.
Moreover, the stolen martial arts theory in his stomach has also been squeezed clean by the female sword saint several times, and the rest is either inconvenient or does not conform to the common sense of this world, so the female sword saint has not come to the door again in the past two days, and it is estimated that where is the penance!
Getting rid of the female sword master's "sāo disturbance," Donald did not go to huā to practice swordsmanship anymore, but focused on the study of spells.
That night, while I was meditating deeply, I suddenly saw that the heart of the king in front of the spirit pillar of light was much more condensed than the previous two days.
Thinking that in the past two days, he has detected that the power of faith around him has grown a lot, and it must be that the news of Leighton Harbor has spread to other parts of the kingdom.
Whether it is the appearance of the giant dragon or the repulsion of the sea beast attack, it will inevitably arouse more people's admiration and discussion, and the power of faith is at an explosion, which cheapens the sword intent of the king's heart.
The Book of Truth, except for collecting thirty percent of the transformation of divine power through the statue of the evil god, the rest was instilled into the heart of the king under Donald's order, and he meant to see how far this sword of will could grow.
Now that it has really achieved initial results, the sword body of the king's heart not only looks more real than before, it is no longer as illusory as when it was first condensed, and because it is a sword intent condensation, the power is also reflected in the spiritual level, according to the deduction of the Book of Truth, as long as this king's heart exists in its own consciousness world, even without the protection of the Book of Truth, the spiritual attacks below the gold will not have any effect on him, and the gold level will not have the same power as the general silver rank.
And if you give up this sword of will, as long as you consume it once, it will explode itself at the target, and the power of the explosion will be heavy, even the legendary powerhouse Wu Hún will be hit hard.
The current heart of the king is also much heavier than the original in Donald's heart, and it is no longer a wisp of sword intent that can be given up at any time simply by wanting to master the sword momentum, but an auxiliary means to strengthen the spirit hún, and it is an additional hole card at a critical moment.
However, seeing the green light flashing on the sword between the kings, Donald had other considerations in his heart.
"This will that represents natural punishment cannot be wasted, when it is first condensed, it is stronger than the heart of the king, if it is also condensed and formed, it is estimated that the benefits it will bring to me will be more targeted than the heart of the king!" Although the sword intent of the king's heart in Donald's heart is good, it is only done on a whim, and it can be given up when necessary, and it is just a waste of the power of faith in it, as for the sword intent, it can be re-condensed at any time. And he doesn't intend to follow the relatively simple path of the Lord of Humanity, but his final achievements are limited.
"The will to punish nature, on the other hand, is a large branch of the aggregate of higher laws like nature, if you can successfully comprehend and master it......" Thinking of it, Donald began to control his consciousness in the world of consciousness, extracting the tiny but powerful pale green sè natural will of punishment from the heart of the king, and then shaping it into a spear before the pillar of light of the spirit.
This spear is not the ancient red tassel spear of the previous life, but similar to the rigid knight's spear in this world today, but the length is much shorter, only seven feet long, and the head of the spear is hexagonal, which is integrated with the body of the spear.
The six sides of the head of the spear are faintly filled with images of flames, dirt, water, breezes, beasts, and plants, but the body of the spear is as smooth as a mirror, and because it is a weapon condensed by light and shadow, it looks blurry.
When this emerald green sè gun was formed, Donald suddenly felt his consciousness world shake, as if the sky was trembling, and the huge power that appeared inexplicably broke through the consciousness world, forming a crack in the sky, and a pale green sè breath instantly poured in from outside the sky, and then disappeared into the gun.
Donald's spirit projection stretched out his hand and made a slight move, and the spear that radiated emerald green brilliance all over its body reached his hand on its own. As soon as he grasped the spear, his spirit seemed to float out of the sky, and his vision suddenly expanded thousands of times, as if the whole world was in his eyes, and a gentle and incomparably large consciousness enveloped him, and then Donald began to feel countless images.
The seeds sprout nèn buds and grow into young plants, which then gradually grow into adult plants and open large tea huā. Small insects pollinate it, and then the huā petals fall off and give birth to fruits, which ripen and are eaten by small animals, and the seeds also fall into the earth and sprout again, and so on, which is the cycle of life.
There are also various animals from birth to growth, to hunting, migration, mating, breeding the next generation, and then gradually aging, or being hunted by other fierce beasts and intelligent creatures, and finally injured and unable to walk, cheaper other beasts, the corpses are decomposed by scavenging insects, covered with dust and fallen leaves, and finally integrated into the earth and turned into soil fertilizer, improving nutrients for the surrounding plants.
This is the cycle of the biological chain, the law of nature.
Of course, Donald saw the most images of the destruction of nature, the fires of the forest, the release of highly toxic substances, the erosion of the earth by negative energy, the existence of undead creatures, the invasion of the forces of the abyssal plane, and the disasters brought by demons.
Seeing this, Donald felt a boundless anger from the bottom of his heart for no reason, wanting to completely destroy all those beings who had no reason to destroy nature.
When this anger was generated, all images suddenly stopped, and the huge will disappeared, leaving only a trace of connection and communication with Donald's consciousness through the spear in his hand.
"How can you communicate the true will of nature?"
After the change he had just experienced, Donald quickly figured out why this was happening.
That huge consciousness is clearly the natural will of this world, which can also be called world consciousness, obviously this natural punishment will condensed after he thought of some situations about environmental protection in his previous life, and unexpectedly won the favor of natural will, so he successfully gave him the authority to punish those who destroy nature on behalf of nature, that is, the spear he condensed.
And the will of nature also faintly conveyed to him such a message, that is, as long as he continues to uphold the way of natural punishment and remove the cancer that endangers the harmony of nature in the main material world, then he will be rewarded by the will of nature, and the more he does, the more he will get, and it is not impossible to even become a divine weapon that holds the authority of the law of one party.
"Doesn't that mean that as long as I can reach the strength of a demigod, I can use the authority of this spear of natural punishment will to incarnate a godhood, and then obtain a godhead and become a true god?"
Happily, he was lucky enough to get the authority given by the will of the world, and with the will of the previous human king, he already had two paths that could take the position of a powerful true god at any time: hesitatingly, since he became a mage, he had set a powerful path to pursue the ancient arcanist, and now there were more choices in front of him, but he didn't know how to choose for a while.
Finally Donald shook his head and simply didn't think about it.
"Anyway, I haven't promoted to gold yet, even if I am promoted to gold, it's still far from the path of the true god, and if the task of natural punishment is too much, there are only benefits and no disadvantages, so you don't have to think so far for the time being!" Then he said to the spear in his hand in a good mood: "Since it is adhering to the authority of natural punishment, let's call you the wrath of nature!"
After speaking, I saw a burst of emerald green spears, obviously recognizing the name.
In this way, Donald's Spirit Hún Light Pillar was floating with a sword and a gun and two weapons before it, and with the addition of the emerald green light of Nature's Wrath, the speed of strengthening Spirit Hún was faster and stronger. The two weapons kept swallowing the holy white sè and the emerald green sè with natural breath and infinite vitality, slowly transforming his spiritual origin.
Looking at the heart of the king who had drawn out the will of natural punishment, the light on the side of the sword body that appeared on the side of the mountain 11 grass and trees had dimmed a lot, but new content appeared on the hilt of the sword.
Donald looked closely, on the one hand, the few decrees currently issued in his domain, and on the other hand, the art of farming in his domain, and the will was put into it, and he found that the practices of the canned food and bandages he had invented were among them.
"This time it's a real sword of humanity!" Chapter 224 The promotion to the Golden Layton Harbor incident caused a sensation throughout the country, and all the forces of the Celt recognized Donald's true strength, not to mention anything else, a single legendary dragon directly overwhelmed the Mage Association and became the fourth largest force after the three major forces in the kingdom.
As for why it is only one of the four major forces and not the head, it is because whether it is the royal family or the Ansel family, the two pillars of the Selt are branches of the Bannai Empire, an ancient family that has been passed down for thousands of years. Outsiders don't know how many cards there are in the holes, and even those old powerhouses and the Church of the Gods in the central and southern parts of the continent don't dare to underestimate it.
Don't look at Dalaran already has a legendary powerhouse, or a legendary dragon who has become the Lord of the Sea, but the background is still much worse than those two, even if it is inferior to the Mage Association, after all, it is also a national xìng mage organization, with a strong grassroots force, and Dalaran In addition to a legendary dragon, there are only less than ten silver powerhouses to support, and the number is far behind.
After staying in Leighton Port for half a month, the two sides completed the signing of the trade agreement on their respective terms.
Donald led the party back to Dalaran to the cheers of the people of Leighton Harbor.
Now, after the publicity of the Ansel family, this alchemical airship has become the hottest topic outside of the legendary dragon, after all, the mortals of that world are eager to be able to fly in the vast sky.
When receiving the reward in Layton Harbor, the royal family's envoy ordered three airships on behalf of the royal family, and the price of one for 50,000 gold soles was repaid with the accumulation of the royal family.
Donald deliberately took advantage of the advantages of this airship, such as low consumption and fast speed, which made those gold and other mages who returned with the rescue team suddenly feel regretful.
If they could copy such an excellent alchemy device, it would be a huge source of wealth! It's a pity that when I saw it before, I didn't look at it carefully because of the Mage Guild's consistent arrogance. Check it out.
When he returned to the Lord's Mansion of Makusè Town, Donald's first words shocked the core personnel of Dalaran who were present to greet him, and then he was even more joyful than the master who said this.
"Teacher, I have gained a lot from this trip, I want to become a golden powerhouse one step ahead of you!" Guan Shou's own disciple, the old mage with two powerful bloodlines of gods and high elves had already prepared in his heart, and he only nodded with satisfaction about this.
This disciple of him is no longer the weak but confident mage apprentice he was at the beginning, but a strong man who is ready to surpass himself, and even inevitably go further.
After a celebratory banquet, all the people in the territory took action, and entrusted Donald to his subordinates to enter the underground cultivation room in the Night Manor alone, and with the help of the Book of Truth, he once again separated a trace of the god xìng to capture and fuse it into his own god xìng, which doubled the blood of the god xìng.
Then he entered the house of time, absorbed the knowledge of the gods, learned new spells, and further deepened his understanding of the will of natural punishment and the heart of the king.
This retreat lasted five days in reality, but in the hundredfold accelerated time house, that was nearly seventeen months.
Donald, who came out of the basement and reappeared in front of everyone, has become completely different.
In the previous silver stage, his momentum was strong, but he lacked a sense of condensation and stability.
If the current Donald doesn't take the initiative to show his momentum, he looks like an ordinary aristocratic young man, without the momentum of a strong man, but if he is a person with sensitive perception to observe carefully, he will feel that the current Donald is faintly surrounded by a deep aura like the sea, and it is very different from the ordinary golden archmage, which is the result of the two sword intents that have been out of shape condensed by Donald.
This is the restrained momentum after reaching the golden rank, not all golden powerhouses like to be like Gold, one of the five giants of the Mage Association, who likes to overwhelm people with power, and often shows their own aura.
The few golden powerhouses that Donald saw, including the Marquis of Storm Sword Saint Ansel, who first saw him, and the later Demon Sword Carlisle or even the two dark elf powerhouses of the Ban Rui family, did not have the habit of showing their momentum all the time, but they were always restrained in their daily lives, and they would not break out until the battle.
Unlike a swordsman who must comprehend a shallow law application to break through the sword master to become a golden sword master, a mage breaking through silver to become a golden archmage requires that he comprehend the laws contained in at least one faction's low-level spells, and then he can master the powerful ninth-level spells of the corresponding faction, and then achieve the strength of a true archmage.
Silver mages can cast powerful spells of the seventh and eighth levels, but the ninth level is a watershed, and learning the ninth level of spells requires extremely high comprehension of the law, and only the golden archmage can release it with his own strength. If the silver mage can be released by skipping the level, then it will automatically break through to the stage of the gold archmage because of the understanding of the rules, so there is no such thing as skipping the cast.
After careful selection, Donald finally began to repeatedly release his perception from the magic tricks of level 0, until he re-learned and mastered the magic constancy technique of level 5 and the limited wishing technique of level 7, and finally successfully comprehended the wishing technique of level 9.
After completing this process, the spiritual power and spiritual origin have naturally undergone a metamorphosis, and he is about to successfully advance to the Golden Archmage, but he took this opportunity to start with the zero-level dizziness technique, and then learned the first-level charm huò human, trance technique, and second-level laughter, which have not been learned much before, until the seventh-level law blindness, the eighth-level law-order shock, and the ninth-level law-order death. Completed the process of promoting to the Golden Archmage again.
The profound accumulation has enabled Donald to master all the spells from low to high level of the two powerful sub-schools of Wishing and Law, and once he is promoted to the Golden Archmage, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary beginner Golden Mages.
Moreover, in terms of power alone, these two sub-factions are even more powerful than the magic of the School of Change, one of the eight major arcane mathematical schools he inherited.
The former is the strongest sub-school spell system in the general school that mixes prophecy, change, enchantment and other faction rules, and the latter is one of the most powerful spell systems of the enchantment school.
This ultimate spell could not be cast without the power of the True God, and in addition to the True God, only the former Grand Arcanist Lord, the Demigod Strong, and the powerful Saints and Apostles who had been empowered by the True God could cast it.
And Donald also understood before that not all true gods can cast these ultimate spells, if they can't comprehend the truth of the law, even the most powerful high-ranking gods can't master it, on the contrary, after comprehending the truth, even the demigods with the lowest level of divine power can cast them.
Because the Demon Hunter stole the demon's bloodline and natural abilities, Donald had this opportunity to comprehend these powerful spells so easily.
Such two powerful spell systems are of course Donald's most preferred choice, as for the change school of his own inheritance, because there are too many choices, and most of them are aimed at the changes in matter, energy and life, so the power of early attack and defense is not strong, and the bonuses for alchemy and crafting equipment are even more sè, so Donald did not choose to be promoted through the system in the change school, but prepared to promote gold first master the strong strength, and then slowly learn to master.
His first plan when he came back this time was to comprehensively improve the overall strength of his territory, and with Nozdorm at the front, the strength of the legendary dragon was enough to discourage any force that snooped on his secrets.
Therefore, it is time to let go of his hands and feet and open up some secrets, and after first improving his own strength, Donald is ready to start the elite plan that has been set a long time ago.
(To be continued.) !。
