Chapter 232: Rift (II)

"What other good things could there be besides gargoyles?" "This time it was the sorceress whose name Salin didn't know.

"Let me think about it. Rex closed his eyes. Think about it. She also has a lot of knowledge to remember, but the way the magician remembers can't correspond to all the content at any time, most of them are rote memorization, and when needed, she has to rearrange it herself.

Rex hadn't been dealing with Bivanor for a day or two, and she would naturally pay attention to the intelligence of the Principality of Titans. She had written down all the information about the castle with memory magic, and after thinking about it carefully, she finally thought of what good things were in this castle.

Rex smiled and said, "Salin, the underground of this castle was originally a bigger castle, but it sank because of the earthquake. In addition to the fact that there are more materials, the Stone Statue Castle has a complete alchemy laboratory, but unfortunately there are no powerful mages here, and it has been closed. I'm afraid that even the earl who controls the castle doesn't know that there is a set of treasures there. ”

Salin's eyes lit up, and he vaguely guessed something, and asked, "It can't be an alchemy mold, right?"

"How do you know!" Rex was surprised this time.

"Hey......" Salin smiled mysteriously, the magic notes he had obtained were relatively old. If the Gargoyle Castle is a new town. He couldn't have known what it was. However, the history of the Statue Castle is longer than that of the Duchy of Titans, and Saleen found relevant information instead.

This alchemy mold is a good thing, but it is not much less difficult to manufacture than an artifact. All alchemy, if you want to make complex things, you have to rely on hand, little by little refining. For example, with the help of tools, a large number of alchemy arrows are produced, and the production is bound to be defective, and the storage time will be shorter.

If you want to make real magic equipment, you have to rely on the magician to complete it little by little. But the ancient humans didn't have to be so troublesome, they invented alchemy molds, which could put magic materials into alchemy molds like pouring metal ingots, and make magic equipment in batches.

This method of alchemy is dozens of times faster than relying on magicians to refine it, and the number of magicians required is much less. The consumption method is generally to use the magic core in the magic array to drive the alchemy mold, as long as you have the magic core and have a similar number of mages, you can use the alchemy mold to make magic equipment in batches.

Of course, such equipment is certainly not as good as the equipment made by Salin in the alchemy of water, but the price is also much lower. If she gets her hands on the alchemy mold to make the armor, Rex could even replace all of her swordsman battalion with magical armor.

"How can no one take this thing seriously?" Salin asked curiously.

Alchemy molds are also cherished in Qin Yin, there is a set in Alchemy City, there is a set in Shengyan City, and there is no complete set of molds in addition. The set in Holy Rock City is the mold used to make armor, and the set in Alchemy City. It appears to be a mold used to refine the base material. Even so, Alchemy City relied on that set of molds to build a large number of magic warships.

"Because this is a puppet refining, the material must be a creature summoned from another plane like a gargoyle, and it cannot be an undead creature. ”

Only then did Salin understand that this set of equipment was probably not known to anyone now, and even if someone found out, it was a chicken piece of equipment. This thing was probably very common back then, when humans could shuttle through various planes, and some creatures with little value and no need to domesticate them were directly refined into puppets, and let the magicians of the year refine them one by one, I'm afraid no one had the patience.

It is only natural to make alchemy molds instead of tedious manual work.

However, this thing is very useful to Saleen and Rex, and there are creatures in the half-plane, which can be refined into golems with this set of molds. After refining, these puppets do not need to be fed with meat, and only need to consume magic cores to survive. To be exact, all the ancient humans made were half-puppets.

The combat effectiveness may not be higher than that of a pure puppet, but it can do extremely complex things.

It's something more powerful than undead creatures. Undead creatures are restrained by the magic of light, and the half-golems are almost the same as humans, with all kinds of data being balanced, and there is no special restraint of magic or magic.

As long as they get this set of alchemy molds, Saleen and Rex will make this trip worthwhile.

The rain was a little lighter, and Bivanno organized the soldiers to change their equipment. The metal armor was removed and replaced with waterproof leather armor. These leather armors are soaked in special grease, which is not only unusually tough, but also unable to ignite. When it comes to defense, leather armor will never be as good as metal armor unless it is blessed with powerful magic. But when marching and fighting, convenience also comes first.

Those metal armors have been soaked in rain for a long time and need to be repaired, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Only the more advanced ones can be thoroughly waterproof, and the price is ridiculously expensive. A set of metal armor that is not affected by humidity can be sold for at least 500 gold coins, but it still needs to be repaired and maintained. The advantage of leather armor is that it can be tanned in a variety of ways, and it is a hundred times easier to bless magic than metal armor.

Not only leather armor, but also rainproof capes, all with hoods, and even more so, some of the junior officers were equipped with waterproof eyes. These glasses are polished from discarded crystal, and after wearing them, they do not affect their eyesight, are waterproof, windproof and sandproof, and are relatively expensive equipment.

The army can't really stop because of the heavy rain. All the horses began to be fed medicine, to keep out the cold, to get rid of diseases. Then the warriors changed the horses and prepared for the road.

This is the difference between elite soldiers and ordinary armies, fully equipped and practical. Finally the soldiers put a swarthy layer on all the wheels, so that the wheels were wide so that they would not get stuck in the muddy ground. This black substance is a kind of gum, which is scarcely produced, and is only produced in the sea south of Yunliu. It is not a special time, and the soldiers are not willing to use this equipment.

Before the rain had completely subsided, Biffano's team was on the road again.

Salin inlaid a three-pole magic core on a magic array of the magic chariot, and the crystals on the hollow parts of the windows on both sides of the magic chariot seemed to be melted, and the entire window was transparent, but this transparency was one-sided, and the inside of the chariot could not be seen from the outside.

The chariot was flanked by Rex's swordsman, but the big Storm Bear had already boarded another magic chariot. Although he was rude, he was very respectful to the magician, and he would never do anything to displease the magician, so the magicians around Rex actually liked this guy with no magical talent.

The most bitter of all was Zola, who followed the magic chariot that Salin was riding, and his magic armor was covered with water droplets.

By evening, the convoy was approaching the next town. The soldiers did not relax and still maintained a tight formation. The clouds are not so thick, and there is even a trace of sunlight shining on the earth, and the golden-red sunlight shines on the earth, reflecting on the stagnant water, exuding a charming brilliance.

The soldiers were also a little tired, and when they saw that they were about to reach the town, their speed increased a lot. Seeing that there was already a wooden house in front of him for merchants to rest, a sharp magic alarm suddenly sounded.

The scouts didn't even notice the enemy, but through a magic alert.

A dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, and I don't know how many bows were being thrown at the team. Bivanor snorted coldly through his nose. Don't even bother to give orders.

This was an obvious act of harassment, and it was less than twenty miles from the town, and there was no possibility of an enemy attack. The town ahead is licensed to be stationed with a regiment of cavalry, and here is the border of the Titans, and within hundreds of miles of the princess's castle, there are such militarized towns.

Biffano's own soldiers did not disappoint him, the sound of feathered arrows breaking through the air came first, and the soldiers had already taken off their shields and protected their bodies. Almost all the water droplets in the air can condense on the skin, and in such weather, all bows and crossbows will be affected except for alchemy crossbows.

The enemy was very smart, and the soldiers who had changed their leather armor were more vulnerable to feathered arrows, but the shields carried by Bivano's own soldiers were large and wrapped in yellow metal, so they would not be pierced by feathered arrows at all.

Sharp feathered arrows landed on the shield, making a sound of metal clashing, and they fell one after another.

The feathered arrow came from a hill on the left, and the height was only a little more than a hundred meters. A small group of only forty men suddenly broke out of the ranks of the pro-soldiers, and this group rode up the hill.

The mountains of the Titan are almost entirely mounds, very gentle, not precipitous. The forty men, who were not cavalrymen, immediately abandoned their horses and shields, drew their swords, jumped off their horses, and rushed to the place where the archers were hiding.

The other two cavalry squads of forty men went around the hillside, but went to block the enemy's retreat.

Rex said to Salin in the car, "See, this is the soldier." ”

Salin thought to himself, if I had money, I wouldn't build such an army. I will directly order someone to bombard the mountain with a magic cannon, or ask the great magician to simply set the mountain on fire, and the enemy will destroy it directly no matter what trap it is, so why bother.

As if to cater to Saleen's thoughts, a violent explosion suddenly occurred on the mountain, and the flames spread. Countless pieces of rubble flew up and fell in all directions.

The sound of screaming came out more than a mile away, Bivanno changed color, and there was no second wave of the enemy's round of arrow rain, I am afraid that only a batch of mechanical devices were installed, all of which were **** out in the way of triggering. There weren't many enemies on the hill, but a large magic trap.

The leader of the Red Fen Legion is a cruel sorceress.

Half of the forty soldiers who rushed up the hill were killed in the blink of an eye, and the remaining eighteen men, holding on to the wounded, abandoned their weapons and fled down the mountain. Some of the magic traps were chained, and they didn't dare to stay in the mountains for an extra minute.

"The people of the Red Fen Legion want Biffano to be angry. Salin said lightly. He had no talent for marching and fighting, but he understood people no worse than others. In this kind of skirmish, Saleen has a keen intuition.

It costs a lot to set up a perfect large magic trap, but it can actually kill and injure not many people. This is only the first harassment, and if Bivano is fooled continuously, he will inevitably be impetuous. The real attack will come then.
