Chapter 369: A Hundred Years of Beast Tide in Advance?
Using the magic core of the Demon Beast to purify and obtain the magic crystal is a very important source of the mainland's magic crystal output at this stage.
What makes Warcraft different from ordinary beasts is that they are able to accumulate magical energy in their bodies and then use it as a human magician. Of course, because not all magical beasts have the wisdom to understand the skill of magic, most of the low-level magical beasts only stay at a very rudimentary stage of using magical power, that is, like when Cheruth had not yet learned magic and did not have a magic compiler to assist in casting, using "completely raw" pure magic power to create some special phenomena that are similar to magic but not magic.
And the reason why the Warcraft was able to complete the process of accumulating demonic energy in the body was mainly due to the fact that the Warcraft had one more thing in their bodies than ordinary beasts, whether it was an organ or an organizational structure, called the Demon Core.
The reason why human magicians are different from ordinary people who can't use magic is precisely because people with magician talents are born with an elemental affinity that is higher than ordinary people, so they can perceive the elements and use them to construct magic, and the magic core of Warcraft also plays a similar role. Warcraft can accumulate demonic energy, mostly relying on the magic core in their respective bodies, and the magic core can be regarded as a thing that provides high elemental affinity for Warcraft.
Some scholars have done experiments to remove their magic cores while trying to ensure the survival of the magic beasts, and the results also confirm the important role of the magic core for the magic beast, because after being taken out of the magic core, the magic beast immediately lost most of its magic ability, and even became no different from an ordinary beast of a strange type after a week.
It was also that experiment that made the scholar unexpectedly discover that even if the magic core of the demon beast was taken out of the body of the demon beast, the elemental affinity contained in it still existed, and even through a certain magic technology, this elemental affinity could be completely used to continue their magic energy gathering in the body of the demon beast, and this time without the body of the demon beast to absorb the gathered magic energy in time, as long as the environment is suitable, these natural magic energy gathered in the space around the magic core can easily be condensed into a magic crystal。
Since the announcement of the results of the experiment that shocked the magic world of the mainland, using the Demon Beast Demon Core to condense the magic crystal has become an important means of producing the magic crystal. Of course, there is no way for a magic core that has left the supply of life forms to carry out this work for a long time, and after leaving the body of the demon beast for a period of time to independently carry out such a magic crystal manufacturing process, the elemental affinity in the magic core will decline, and the magic core will gradually become a waste product that is really useless. The restriction of the magic core, which is called the same service life, is determined by the strength of the original owner of the magic core, the magic beast, so on the market, the magic core of the relatively high and powerful magic beast is generally sold much more expensive than the magic core of the low-grade magic beast, which is also a direct relationship with the hunting difficulty of the high-level magic beast.
On the main road, there are many magical beast gathering places, since the technology of demon core condensation magic crystals was announced, these gathering places have immediately transformed from the original forbidden place of death that is close to the living to the gold rush of adventurers and mercenaries, and the Warcraft Forest is a typical example.
If you make a statistical estimate of the number of high-level demon cores produced from the Warcraft Forest every year, you will find that the number of magic crystals that these magic cores can condense can even be comparable to the number of five to six large-scale magic crystal pits that are fully mined, and most importantly, as long as the miners don't do some stupid things to fish for the sake of fishing or brainlessly anger the real Warcraft overlords in the forest, then an area with a large population of demonic beasts like the Warcraft Forest is almost equivalent to a natural renewable resource supply point, and there is almost no need to worry that this place will one day be mined like those magic crystal pits。
This is why the kingdom of Loris has wanted to break through the Umer Corridor for hundreds of years, and almost every king of Loris has to launch at least one major crusade during his reign, whether he wants to put on a precedent or really want to make a big move. For the Loris Kingdom, which relied on magic guidance technology, a resource point like the Warcraft Forest that can provide almost infinite magic crystals, which are extremely important strategic materials for them, has naturally been coveted for a long time. But unfortunately, the Prud Empire has been fortunate not to have a completely foolish king so far, and even Peter III, who was known for his mediocrity, did not have the idea of fighting the Predators of the Umer Line once under the advice of his ancestors and the advice of his two courtiers at the time, Butler and Hoss.
Therefore, for the time being, if the Kingdom of Loris wants to obtain the supply of magic cores in the Warcraft Forest to return to China to gather and produce magic crystals, it can only contact the mercenary union and the joint organization of the Chamber of Commerce on the side of the adventurer town, and import it through these trade routes of the free forces that have no affiliation, but snakes, snakes, rats, and rats...... Of course, because the trade routes of these organizations either had to go far into the Northlands and bypass the Umer Corridor and then reach the territory of Loris, or they had to smuggle through the outlaw land of the Omer Corridor, so the price of imports was hardly satisfactory to Lorris, but they had no choice but to pinch their noses and accept the fate of being extorted by these mercenaries and merchants.
However, during this period of time, even such a high-priced import has become a luxury for the Loris Kingdom.
After leaving the Seagull Chamber of Commerce, Cheruth has always kept a calm face. She wasn't unhappy that William was picky about her new invention, the virtual singer device, but she couldn't help but be a little worried because of some of the information William provided.
Although the main activity sites of the Seagull Chamber of Commerce are in the Kingdom of Free Port and Loris, in the Warcraft Forest, a place where free forces gather, the Seagull Chamber of Commerce, as a large chamber of commerce, will naturally have its own branch there, so for the recent unilateral suspension of the external sales of the magic core in the Warcraft Forest, William also wrote to inquire about the branch of the Warcraft Forest some time ago, and learned some reasons.
“...... The monster is restless, and the beast tide is coming early...... Are you kidding. ”
Cheruth muttered, thinking about what William had told herself, her heart filled with worry.
In a place like the Warcraft Forest, although in the eyes of humans, it is just a group of dangerous Warcraft that occupies such a place that is not suitable for human habitation to thrive, but in fact, Cheruth, who has lived in the Warcraft Forest for a long time, knows that there is actually a distribution of power in the Warcraft Forest that is unimaginable to ordinary humans, like the human vassal states.
The top magical beasts that occupy the middle of the forest each shelter some high-level magical beasts that live in the slightly peripheral periphery and have slightly lower strength but have reached the standard of transforming into humans, and these high-level magical beasts will have some ordinary high-level magical beasts that cannot transform into human forms but have opened their spiritual intelligence, and then there are some low-level demonic beasts and their clans...... In this way, one by one, the forces belonging to the demonic beasts were established in the forest.
Now that there is a system of forces, the conflict and battle between the natural monsters will become controlled. It's okay to forget about individual battles between low-level demonic beasts.,If there's a personal grudge between high-level demonic beasts, as long as you don't involve others (beasts),It's just to solve it yourself.,But it's like a large-scale fire between clans.,It's strictly forbidden.。 Because once this kind of big scene appears, it means that the top Warcraft behind these two groups will definitely not have a chance to live in peace again, but once there is a battle between the top Warcraft in the center of the forest, then the kind of battle that is completely at the level of the law powerhouse will inevitably have an irreversible impact on the Warcraft Forest, which is the Xanadu Township of all the Warcraft in the forest, although once or twice may not matter, but the precedent is unbreakable.
In the long run, there is no so-called "internal friction" between Warcraft, and those human mercenaries are fishing in order not to exhaust the water when hunting Warcraft and collecting Demon Cores, plus they don't want to anger the top Warcraft in the forest, so they are also very measured to control a degree, so the number of Warcraft in the Warcraft Forest will inevitably gradually expand. However, the space and resources of the forest are limited, there are more monsters, less resources and space, and they are not allowed to grab territory and fight with each other to consume human (beast) mouths...... "Expansion" naturally became the only option.
So in fact, there will be a tide of monsters in the Warcraft Forest every nearly a hundred years, although those scholars on the mainland always say that this is because the demonic energy position in the Warcraft Forest area will change every hundred years, which will cause the elements in the Warcraft body to be active and excited, and then spontaneously move outward and migrate balabala...... But in fact, Cheruth, who grew up in the Warcraft Forest and had a top-level Warcraft adoptive mother, knew very well that the so-called Beast Tide was just a script for the core of the Warcraft Forest to control the Warcraft population with the help of human hands, so that the Warcraft Forest would have a regular opportunity to recuperate.
Even the kings and powerhouses at the top of human society are very aware of this, after all, if the Warcraft really wants to counterattack the human race, how can it be that every time the beast tide is fierce, no matter how fierce the beast tide is, the top Warcraft in the depths of the forest will not easily appear outside the forest and personally lead the beast tide army to attack the human town? And these people also acquiesced to the Warcraft to regulate the population of the Warcraft Forest in this way, because although the area around the Warcraft Forest will suffer every hundred years, they will also receive some alternative " Reward" - a large number of monster corpses and the magic cores left outside the forest after each beast tide recedes.
Therefore, although the beast tide always sounds like it is always associated with words such as human tragedy and a hundred years of natural disasters, in fact, this is just a big drama that the high-level leaders of both Warcraft and humans tacitly cooperate with every hundred years, using the sacrifices of those people and beasts at the bottom who don't know anything in exchange for the results they need, and it is not at all the so-called Warcraft Forest Demon Ability Field periodic anomaly...... Of course, this kind of argument is used to deceive ordinary people and even ordinary cultivators, but it is something that the upper echelons of those who know know are tacitly acquiescing.
Cheruth is not a half-hearted and righteous Mary traverser who can't tolerate a little deception and shady, so despite knowing these things from Heran, Cheruth doesn't intend to be a lone hero who debunks this century-old deception...... After all, although it is true that such a practice of taking the lives of the bottom as innocent victims for the sake of the interests of the top is not authentic, it is better for the two sides to play tricks and fake than to really fight because of lack of resources at that time, right?
Now, it should only be more than sixty years since the last time the Beast Tide on the Continent was remembered, that is to say, the current Beast Forest should be supposed to face up to the fact that the number of various ethnic groups is just right, and there will be no shortage of resources and territory, and the so-called Beast Tide ahead of time should be completely false.
However, according to the news that Cheruth heard from William, the monsters in the Warcraft Forest have been nearly twice as aggressive in recent times as before, and their action patterns have changed from their usual looseness, and they are actually wandering around the forest in groups in groups. For adventurers and mercenaries who dare to step into the forest, the monsters will even take the initiative to assemble to attack and expel them...... This kind of irascible and belligerent personality change and group action pattern are exactly the same as the behavior of the Warcraft before every hundred years of beast tide recorded in the history books.
How could this be? In terms of understanding the Warcraft Beasts in the Warcraft Forest, Cheruth can be said to have much more knowledge than the so-called Warcraft scholars on the continent. Every beast tide seems to be the demonic beasts looting everywhere in an orderly and disorderly manner, but in fact, these low-level demonic beast races under the opening of those top-level demonic beasts in the deepest part of the forest dare not mess around at all.
And among the top Warcraft Beasts who have the right to speak in the Warcraft Forest, although there are always a few guys who are indeed restless by nature and always want to take the clan out of the forest to do something, but because there are a large number of conservative top Warcraft such as Grandpa Lao Shu, Aunt Helan and Uncle Firewing, who exist like the treasure of the forest, have been pressing, those radical guys have not been able to really do anything, at most, they are arbitrarily advocating and commanding their own family groups to provoke the human alliance army senselessly during the Hundred Years of Beast Tide, to say that they have the power to launch the Beast Tide in a period when they don't need to use the Beast Tide as an excuse to reduce the number of Warcraft of all races, Cheruth definitely doesn't believe it.
Unless...... What happened to Grandpa Old Tree and Aunt Heran, their conservatives?
No, no, not to mention Aunt Helan, they are all law-level powerhouses, let's just say that Grandpa Tree, it is a thousand years old, and it may even have reached the peak realm of the seventh order, but because they can't leave the center of the Warcraft Forest, they have never been known, how can someone break into the depths of the Warcraft Forest in this era, what will happen to them?
...... Should...... Wouldn't it? )
