Chapter 180 Agreement (10,000 Words Subscription Request)
Killing the former mentor, the necromantic archmage Asta, who was in an extremely weak state, was equivalent to a metamorphosis from mind to spirit for Zuo Si.
is also a farewell to the weak self who was shrouded in the shadow of the other party in the past. Especially when the fatebox was shattered, he suddenly realized that he had not only acquired Asta's property, but also inherited some characteristics of the other party.
For example, the coldness, cruelty, and ruthlessness of the enemy; Another example is when you can't get what you want by normal means, the idea of robbery will come up at the first time.
Obviously, these terrible habits are not something that can be developed in the relatively peaceful environment of modern society on Earth.
Rather, it was a change he was forced to make by a necromancer in order to survive in the Tower of the Floating City. As the saying goes, when you're not in an extremely dangerous situation, you never know what the other side of your heart looks like.
Get it to Asta and call it
The remnants of the "Chaos Factor", Zuo Si took a little bit of the large hunting dog raised by Bernard's family for testing as soon as he returned to his residence.
As a result, in less than a dozen seconds, this dog, which was originally only more than one meter tall, muscular, fierce and extremely loyal to its owner, became an adult in size and height
An unknown creature of the "mastodon". In particular, all the black hairs that were originally soft and beautiful have fallen out, and they have been replaced by a hard cuticle that grows on the surface of the skin.
The two eyes became even harder, like gems set in their sockets, capable of emitting a kind of magic ray.
Anyone who is hit will instantly see the image of their deepest fear, and then run around like crazy and scream loudly.
On top of that, the mouth with its huge teeth full of sharp teeth, its claws as hard and sharp as a dragon's, and its tail that, due to an unknown mutation, can attack enemies like a snake and inject deadly toxins.
Fortunately, Zuo Si had already arranged the precautionary measures in advance. If it weren't for the strange things on the side to control the mind, it would have eaten the servant who was in charge of training and feeding itself in one bite.
Looking at the behemoth standing in the kennel in the backyard, even Vermes, who was a red dragon, couldn't help but feel a burst of heart, and asked in an incredulous tone: "You...... What did you do to this dog? ”
"I didn't do anything, just let it inhale a little bit of a trivial substance. It seems that Asta is right, this chaos factor can cause random mutations in anything. Zuo Si stared at the transparent bottle in his hand that emitted dark purple dots of light, and his eyes flashed with a strange light.
It was clear that the fog that had caused his body to age backwards, and the unknown space he had arrived in first after lighting the spark, were more mysterious and full of mysteries than expected.
Among other things, this kind of chaotic mutation that can cause organisms to undergo chaotic mutations in a very short period of time is of great research value.
Great for crafting and replenishing a large number of creature cards. In addition, Zuo Si is also aware of the mutations of viruses and bacteria in his body, which may also follow
The "chaos factor" has a certain connection. … Even the body has undergone some unknown changes in the process, but I didn't realize it at all before.
"Just a little substance?!" Vermes's hole suddenly enlarged, and his eyes revealed a strong fear and fear.
Because she's not sure about the titular one around
Will the "allies", the de facto masters, treat themselves as experiments. After all, before this, Zuo Si had used Bertogas
"Big Baby" is a precedent for mass production of half-dragon kobolds. At this time, it is estimated that in that cave located deep in the mountains, there are at least dozens of eggs containing the blood of the red dragon.
In two months or so, almost a hundred half-dragon kobolds will be born. Six years at most, these kobolds will enter their teenage years, awaken the magical power in their bloodlines, and become powerful half-dragon warlocks.
With the spiritual connection with the strange object, Zuo Si easily saw through the red dragon's thoughts, and chuckled and comforted: "Don't worry, since your performance has been good in the recent period, I will not include you in the scope of such dangerous experiments for the time being." Hearing this, Vermes instantly breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the berserk beast in front of him, which had turned from a hound, and asked, "What are you going to do with it?" Like those giants, orcs, ogres, and dragon lichs, make some kind of weird magic summoning props? ”
"No, I have other plans for it." As he spoke, Zuo Si took out a small bottle of milky white translucent mucus from his satchel, took out a little bit through magic tricks, and then injected it into the reproductive system of this mutated creature.
When Vermes in human form saw this scene, he immediately raised his eyebrows in disbelief: "You...... Are you going to use it as a mother to breed a half-dragon? ”
"That's right! That's why I chose a female hound. Taking advantage of the fact that the dragon is not reproductively isolated from any living thing, the offspring of this giant beast are crossed with different kinds of dogs to create a stable dragon hound with a certain amount of intelligence and loyalty to its owner, which is my ultimate goal. Zuo Si didn't hide anything, and said his plan generously.
After all, when it comes to the efficiency of reproduction, male dragons have much more advantage than female dragons. The latter takes at least a few months to half a year from pregnancy to egg laying.
With this skill, the former can make hundreds of female creatures conceive their offspring as long as they are not picky eaters.
If you use magical power to increase your chances of conception, and some races can give birth to several in one litter, you may not be able to give birth to an army.
"You're such a madman!" Vermes looked at Zuo Si with fear in his eyes. Because she wasn't sure if in the future, this terrifying human cub who looked like he was only about ten years old, would force himself to conceive in the same way, and then continue to nurture all kinds of dragonborn offspring.
While the man and the dragon were talking, Bernard approached from a distance with a moon elf dressed in a gray robe and with long silver hair like a waterfall.
When they saw the huge figure standing in the open space of the kennel and the servant who had fainted with great fright, they immediately showed shocked expressions.
… In particular, Bernard, who was the master, immediately ran over and asked breathlessly, "Your Excellency Soss, ...... What happened? Zuo Si quietly put away the bottle in his hand and replied with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a little experiment with your hound." "Goodong!
Bernard, who was just an ordinary person, subconsciously swallowed his saliva and felt his scalp tingle.
He couldn't imagine what kind of magical experiment could turn a large hound into a dog
"Mastodon" is as huge. And it doesn't look like a canine at all.
The rows of sharp fangs are like sharks, and it is estimated that the whole person will be cut off in the middle if they are bitten.
In contrast, the moon elf dressed as a mage was quite calm, not only did not show any panic, but looked at the mutated hound with interest and asked, "What did you do to it?" Normal changes are due to magic and bloodline, and physiological modifications cannot be done to this extent. ”
"It's my little personal secret, and it's not easy to tell. And you're ......," Zuo Si looked the strange visitor up and down.
Judging by the attire, it is clear that the other party is a member of the masked mage organization, and has a mark on his chest that symbolizes the status of a senior administrator.
Despite wearing a magical mask that only obscures her nose and eyes, making her face look like a lake, it is still confirmed that the female Moon Elf has a remarkable appearance.
To be precise, this special branch of the Moon Elves is naturally rich in handsome men and women. In particular, the iconic fair skin with a few blue spots, combined with silver, blue or black hair, gives the first impression of elegance, mystery and pride.
However, given the massacre of elves in the Amm region during the reign of the Shane dynasty, it is still somewhat strange that the elves have joined the masked mage organization in a month.
After all, even today, there are still many extremists in Ascatra who openly promote hate speech against the elven race, and even think that the entire elven race should be completely exterminated.
"This is Lady Zelanora, negotiating with you on behalf of the Council of Six and the Masked Mage." Bernard hurriedly made a brief introduction.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency the Electorate." The moon elf, known as Zelanora, stroked her chest with one hand and bowed slightly.
This is not only a recognition of Zuo Si's own strength, but also a tribute to the goddess of poison and plague.
Zuo Si also returned the salute: "I'm glad to meet you, ma'am." Since you represent the Council of Six and the Masked Mage's Guild, let's skip the boring temptations and open the skylight to speak brightly. My request was simple, and that was to build a magical tower in the city of Ascatla. In return, I allow you to use my name to intimidate competitors in order to force them to back down. ”
"But there is no precedent for Ascatra to allow non-members of the Masked Mage Guild to build a mage tower. To be precise, even many mages are unable to build their own mage towers in this city, and instead need to find a vacant lot in other towns and manors. ”… Zelanora tried to gain more bargaining chips by emphasizing principles.
"Precedents are always meant to be broken. If you really can't meet my request, I'll consider leaving Amm and settling in Baldur's Gate in the north. I believe that the dukes of Baldur's Gate will be more than happy to let me build a mage tower in their city, and even provide land and various conveniences for free. Zuo Si unceremoniously showed his hole cards directly.
He was well aware of the current tension between Baldur's Gate and Am, and even more aware of the fierce friction between the two sides over trade.
To put it mildly, if it weren't for Am's military strength pulling his hips as always, it is estimated that the previous border war would not have ended so easily.
Compared to Baldur's Gate, they are disciplined and extremely brave
"Flame Fist Mercenaries", the former has long been corrupted by shadow thieves, chambers of commerce, pirates, and slave traders with money in the bustling big city.
Almost all the soldiers had on their minds about how to use their positions to make as much money as they could, and then enjoy the wine, the food, and the scantily clad women in the streets, and no one really cared about how to win a war.
As a result, Am's armies often suffered more than one rapid demoralization and mass rout when they encountered a powerful enemy or when the battle was too bloody and brutal.
Even with the help of the Masked Mage Guild, it was barely holding on to the existing territory. Only when the big chambers of commerce send their elites to colonize overseas and make huge profits through monopolies, will the country burst into real power.
Seeing that his strategy had failed from the beginning, Zeranora immediately frowned and cautiously tentatively said, "You must build a mage tower in the city?" ”
"That's right!" Zuo Si gave a neat and affirmative answer. The two stared into each other's eyes like this for more than ten seconds, and finally Zeranora chose to compromise and took out a pre-prepared agreement from her bosom: "Here, this is the final condition that the Council of Six and the Masked Mage Guild have unanimously decided to prescribe after discussion." If you can accept it, please sign it. Zuo Si took it and glanced at it twice, and found that the content on it was very simple, and there were three in total.
The first is that he must nominally join the masked mage, but he does not have to take responsibility or obligation, let alone obey anyone's orders, and only needs to help in the face of a massive invasion of monsters such as orcs.
The second was that he was to be responsible for managing Talona's church in Am, ensuring that it would not spread the plague, especially against the nobles and wealthy merchants in the ruling class.
The third rule is even simpler, which is to treat the high-ranking members of the six-member council when they are poisoned or sick.
You must know that in Faerun, not all toxins and diseases can be solved by the two magic techniques of [Neutralizing Toxicity] and [Removing Disease].
Some special toxins and blight diseases usually require the use of some rare and rare materials to make corresponding antidotes.
Many die before the antidote is ready. But now that there are voters with the goddess of poison and disease, there is naturally no need for such trouble.
Arguably, the only trouble with these conditions is the second one. … After much hesitation, Zuo Si still chose to sign his name at the bottom of the agreement, and then handed the parchment to the other party.
"Now tell me, where are you going to divide the location for me to build the Mage Tower? Don't say it's in the cemetery. While I'm personally good at necromancy, I don't want my neighbors to be a bunch of dead people. Hearing this semi-ridiculous remark, Zelanora couldn't help but laugh for a moment, and then replied in the same humorous language: "Don't worry, the location we have assigned you is still a little far from the cemetery. To be exact, at the junction of the cemetery, the slum, the bridge area and the city gate area. You can use the graveyard's abundant negative energy to conduct necromantic research, or you can have an occasional drink at the Bronze Crown Inn in the ghetto. And when traveling, it is very convenient to travel by water or land. How's it going, are you happy with the arrangement? Zuo Si nodded with satisfaction: "Sounds pretty good." When can I start work? ”
"After you finish the church of Talona in the city, I will send someone to send the title deed and permission to build the mage tower, and then the construction can officially begin." Zelanora said meaningfully.
"Okay, I got it." Zuo Si sighed slightly and quickly ended the negotiation. After seeing the moon elf leave, he immediately turned to Bernard and said, "You start recruiting now, I need a sufficient number of skilled craftsmen to ensure that the land can be completed in the shortest possible time after obtaining the title deed." Bernard confidently assured, "No problem." The stonemasons of Ascatra will have enough manpower, and even if they recruit a hundred stonemasons in one go, there will be no shortage. As for the ordinary workers, I can transfer some of the tenant farmers from the estate. Right now, it's the farming season, and with just a small salary for food and shelter, they will be more than happy to come to the city to earn some extra money. But there's nothing I can do about magic. ”
"I'll take care of the magic myself, you just need to build the foundation and the outer tower first. This is a blueprint, and when you give it to the stonemason, they will understand it. After that, Zuo Si took out the drawings he had taken out these days and stuffed them to the merchants.
It can be seen that he was in a pretty good mood after getting the permission to build the Mage Tower, and even if he was about to meet with the local priest of the Talona Church, he didn't put on a sad face.
Bernard didn't talk nonsense, immediately left the house with the drawings, and began to work on the construction of the tower, which could cost hundreds of thousands of gold coins or more.
Because he understands that this mage tower is of great significance to himself and even his family. When Zuo Si settled down, the young and ambitious businessman had a backstage to rely on.
Whoever wants to fight the Roldan Chamber of Commerce will need to consider revenge from a powerful mage and the Chosen Elect of the Goddess of Poison and Plague.
In the future, with the good cooperation between the two, they may be able to send their children here to learn magic, and then contribute to the development and growth of the family and the Chamber of Commerce.
… As for Bernard's thoughts, Zuo Si didn't care at all. Because he had to solve a problem that he didn't want to face, and that was dealing with the infamous church of the goddess.
Coming to the temple area next to the administrative district, Zuo Si saw at a glance the temple of Talona, which had just laid the foundation and was being built in a hurry.
With the patronage of several wealthy merchants and aristocrats, as well as the recent surge in donations from believers, it is clear that the church has scraped together enough money to put down roots in the land of Am.
However, the Lord of the Dawn, Loshanda, the Guardian God, and the Knights of the Burning Heart, who also have a nearby temple, are obviously not friendly to the Church of the Goddess of Poison and Disease.
If it weren't for Am's law, any god would have the right to preach here, they would have rushed up and chased away these plague-spreading bastards or killed them on the spot.
Some priests and paladins even kept preaching Talona's to the workers who were hired to do the work
"Spotted Bad Deeds", hoping to make them repent and give up building a temple for this evil goddess.
Unfortunately, this rhetoric may work in other cities. But in mercenary
In Ascatla, the "capital of gold coins", the workers didn't even pay attention to it, just worked hard.
Because the pastors of the church of Talona knew how bad their reputation was, they offered double the salaries of those who were willing to come to work.
Unless the other party can offer a higher price, it is impossible to rely on the mouth cannon alone
"Beating workers" has caused a small impact. But the problem is that people in the order-friendly and order-neutral camp will definitely not do acts like malicious bidding that undermine market rules.
So the whole construction site looks like a big burlesque scene, which can be described as quite interesting.
"Master, are we really going to go over at this time?" Davidian asked with a solemn expression. After all, looking at the posture, all the good and neutral gods in the entire temple area basically came.
Even cults of evil gods such as Talos, the god of storms, and Amberi, the goddess of the sea, sent people to stand aside and watch the excitement.
"If you go now, I'm afraid you will become a loser." The orc Ritter also whispered.
Unless he's a mentally insane maniac, no one can stay calm in the face of so many churches of gods.
"You guys wait here, I'll just go alone." For this situation, Zuo Si was obviously mentally prepared.
That's why he's always refused to make contact with these guys. To be honest, before Ciric went crazy, if you had to choose the most hated list of all the gods in the Faeron Continent, Talona, the goddess of poison and plague, would definitely be at the top of the list.
After all, the indiscriminate spread of plague is too hateful. If it weren't for the fear of angering this terrible evil goddess, those priests would not be worth the fuss even if they were caught and burned alive.
When Zuo Si squeezed through the crowd of onlookers and took off his hood to reveal a childish face, the originally lively scene suddenly fell into silence.
… It's as if someone has pressed the mute button. It doesn't matter if it's in use
The "mouthful" priests of the good gods, as well as the members of the Church of the Evil Gods, all fell silent.
Because compared to the commoners, who had no stable sources, they had already learned in various ways that Talona had personally descended an avatar and chosen a mortal for herself as the elector.
In addition, Zuo Si is quite conspicuous in terms of appearance, age and appearance, and he was recognized almost immediately.
"Praise be to the Great Goddess! Talona's only chosen one, child of the plague, destroyer of another world, you are finally willing to meet us. An old woman who looked to be in her fifties quickly ran to the front and led all the pastors and believers present to her knees on the ground, her voice filled with unparalleled excitement and excitement.
Although the Goddess of Poison and Disease herself is chaotic and evil, her church is not at all chaotic like Ciric, and has a very tight organization and hierarchy.
As a voter, Zuo Si is undoubtedly in this system
The existence of "one god under ten thousand people". Even the hostile priests of the good gods chose to remain silent at the moment.
At this time, if anyone takes the initiative to find fault without opening their eyes, it is basically equivalent to insulting and blaspheming.
According to Am's law, he could have been killed on the spot.
"You're the highest-ranking person in the Amm Church?" Zuo Si asked bluntly. The old woman hurriedly nodded: "Yes, Your Excellency, Elector." My name is Yin Weitt, and I am the chief priest of the church in this country. Until you appeared, we had been keeping a low profile, not daring to preach openly at all, let alone build a magnificent temple for the Goddess. It's all thanks to you that the church is where it is today. ”
"I need to talk to you alone." Zuo Si looked into the other party's eyes and said in an almost commanding tone.
"No problem! It is my pleasure. The old woman who called herself Yin Weit slowly stood up and pointed to a house not far away and made a gesture of please.
Soon, the two walked in one after the other and closed the door. With a bang, the scene as if the mute button had been pressed was suddenly in an uproar.
As a priest and follower of Talona, it is natural to be happy to witness Zuosi, the legendary elect who destroyed a world with the plague, as if he had a backer.
And the priests of the good gods had solemn expressions, as if the end of the world was coming.
A paladin dressed in full-body plate armor took a deep breath and couldn't help but complain to his companion, "Damn! Sir Crownon, what do you say is wrong with this world? Why does even Talona, the goddess of poison and disease, have a strong electorate of her own? It was even possible to openly build a temple in Ascatra and recruit believers. As the forces of evil continue to swell like this, what's the point of doing our best every day to maintain order and justice? ”
"Calm down, Sir Cassius. Things may not be as bad as you think. For I had heard from the pastor of the church of Ymat that the incarnation of the God of Suffering that night also came and drove out the incarnation of Talona. According to the information they gave, the young voter did not seem to approve of Ms. Poison's teachings. ”… The middle-aged and elderly paladin known as Kaidong patted his friend's shoulder and comforted him.
"Do the elect disagree with a God who empowers them?" Sir Cassius's eyes widened in surprise. Because he was extremely devout and steadfast in his faith, he could not imagine or understand such a strange situation.
Kaidong smiled and shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes! Amazing, isn't it? As far as I know, this elect has been coming to Ascatra for some time, but he has not been in contact with the local church. I guess he came today to reach some kind of agreement with the Council of Six, so he came to restrain the behavior of the Church of Talona. Sir Cassius nodded thoughtfully, "I see. If that's the case, maybe it's a good thing for Askatra. At least we don't have to worry too much about a large-scale outbreak of plagues, diseases, and the like. ”
"Let's go, we're still on a mission to the Giant's Plains. According to the information provided by the Duke of Terga, the situation over there seems to be very critical. ”
"That's right. Let's go to the gates and join the rest of the Knights' brothers and sisters. As he spoke, the two paladins quickly mounted their horses and turned around and walked towards the east.
Not long after they left, Zuo Si walked out of the house and walked away under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, leaving only Yin Weite, whose face was not very good-looking.
You don't need to ask to know that the conversation between the two just now must not be very pleasant. To be precise, the former used his status as a voter to force the latter to accept the demands of the Council of Six that it should not attack the nobles and wealthy merchants, let alone spread the plague in Am.
"Lord Priest, what have you said to your Excellency, the Elect?" A younger priest approached cautiously and tentatively.
Yin Weite replied bitterly: "He has set some rules for us, and some of the previous methods can no longer be used in the future." It seems that His Excellency the Elect has no affection for either the Church or the Goddess. I really don't understand why the great mother of plagues would choose such a person to be the elect. ”
"Don't have any favors? This...... How is this possible! The young pastor opened his mouth wide and couldn't believe what he was hearing.
But Yin Weit didn't pay attention to him, and just sighed in a low voice: "God's thoughts are really not something that we mortals can understand. Perhaps there is something about this elect that we cannot see, which is why he has been unreservedly favored by the Goddess. In short, tell everyone in the church not to try to break these taboos, or he will kill us without mercy. ”
"What about Talona? Is our goddess just allowed her to kill her followers and followers? The young pastor asked in an excited tone.
"That's right! In the eyes of the Goddess, the status and importance of the elect are far greater than that of you and me. Also, don't try to figure out what the gods think from the perspective of mortals. This is the first warning, and it is also the last. Don't forget, since the advent of this chosen person, our church has grown exponentially in terms of influence and the number of believers. This alone is enough to prove that the judgment of the Great Goddess is correct. ”… After saying this, Yin Weitt ignored the dejected young man, walked straight to the other pastors and believers, and began to announce the new rules of the church to everyone present.
And these
"New rules", not only let
The "own people" were incredulous, and even the members of the Church of the Good Deities who came to do something were speechless in shock.
Because this really doesn't fit the style of Talona, the goddess of poison and plague, but rather a bit of an evil order or neutral faction.
While everyone was talking, a woman hidden in a dark corner pursed the corners of her mouth and showed a playful smile, muttering in a voice that only she could hear: "No respect for the god who gives you power?" Soth, you're an interesting little guy, no wonder you're being targeted by those Talisman Masters. With the last word blurted out, she took off her hood to reveal her emaciated elven face, which was none other than Zelanora, who had recently negotiated with Zuosi on behalf of the Council of Six and the masked mage.
It's just different from the previous moon elf who exuded elegance and beauty all over his body. At this moment, Zeranora looked like a ruthless and cruel necromancer, and a strong negative energy emanated from her body.
The eyes also glowed with a chilling red glow. She didn't stay here long, though, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
…… At the same time, Shangra, the Lord of Talismans, travels alone to a secret stronghold in Ascatla.
After reading the information he had gathered recently, the lich immediately asked with great interest, "Since Soth arrived in Ascatla, he has not been in contact with the church of Talona, the goddess of poison and plague?" ”
"Yes, master. From the information we have, it seems that Soth never prayed and never wore the emblem publicly, so he did not look like a chosen person. Quite the opposite. This man's every move is more like a mage with little or no faith. A man in leather armor knelt on the ground and replied in the affirmative.
As with the way it works in Carlinshan, the Entanglement Charm in Ascatra indirectly controls several chambers of commerce and the families behind them through infiltration, threats, and bribes.
And then through the tentacles extended by these people to explore all kinds of secrets. So they were very aware of the secret agreement reached by the Council of Six, the masked mage, and Zuo Si.
"Oh? So why would such a person become a voter? Shangla touched her chin and continued to ask.
The man hurriedly explained, "According to our analysis, as well as the recent propaganda of the Church of Talona, it seems that Soth has come from another world, and has completely destroyed that world with a terrible plague. I think it's probably because of this that I was favored by the Mother of Plagues. In addition to this, he himself is very good at using poisons. ”
"From another world? No wonder! The special abilities he used to make magical items, as well as those completely different design ideas, were most likely magical skills from another world......" Shangra instantly thought of many things.
… Because the powerful magic item made by Zuo Si, the [Blue Dragon Buster], had already been repeatedly studied by them.
Whether it was the dense sequencing of runes that most spellcasters couldn't do at all, or the diamond dust that spread evenly throughout every corner of the crystal, it was by no means any known magic item making technique in the Faeron Continent.
What's more, Zuo Si's spell casting level is not high, which is the consensus of all the masters of the runes. However, the magic items he made were far beyond his own casting level.
But if these skills are from another world, then everything can be explained.
"Master, what are we going to do next?" The man asked in a tone that wasn't quite sure.
"You don't need to do anything, just keep gathering information about South. Also, if it's convenient, consider establishing some business dealings with him. I'm going to see what he, the alternative voter, will do next. Hardly hesitating, Shangra immediately gave orders to his cronies.
According to the rules of the organization, no one of the lords of symbols was allowed to have contact with the elect of the gods or the priests.
So no matter how much he wants to communicate with Zuo Si now, he must be patient now. At least not to take any chances until Ragon's approval is obtained.
"Understood. Rest assured, I send back the sorted messages every once in a while. The man swore an oath.
…… As Zuo Si secured the Church of Talona in the city according to the agreement, the Council of Six and the Masked Mage quickly sent over a title deed with a mage construction permit, as well as a suited set of senior members of the Masked Mage's Guild.
As promised, the land is in the middle of the cemetery, the slum, the bridge area and the city gate area.
There used to be a small square with a small area, but now it is all divided into the Mage Tower.
As for the security situation around us...... It's basically a state of demons dancing. After all, it is so close to the slums and the bridge area, and with the activities of a large number of members of the Shadow Thieves Guild, it is no wonder that it can be so good.
According to the civilians who live in this area, almost every day at night, you can see a lot of mysterious guys drilling into the cemetery, and you don't need to ask to know that they must be stealing burial goods.
Fortunately! The Mage Tower is not a place where any thief can sneak in and steal anything. So no matter how bad the law and order situation is, Zuo Si doesn't care.
Because after the Mage Tower is built, he will be the most dangerous existence in this area. If someone who doesn't have long eyes dares to sneak in and steal something, then wait to be used as an experiment
"Mick". In this way, in less than three days, Bernard gathered the construction team.
In order to prevent the ruffians from coming to find trouble, Zuo Si also transferred the steel golem to the town. With this big guy, both the working stonemasons and the farmers from the countryside immediately felt a strong sense of security.
In addition, more than a dozen torches blessed with [Immortal Flame] are illuminated, and you can continue to work even after nightfall.
With the creator's powerful [shaping] ability, it didn't take long for Zuo Si to finish the part below and the part on the ground floor.
… Looking at the tall towers rising from the ground and the hard outer walls that were integrated without any gaps, the dwarven craftsman in charge of the project couldn't help but exclaim, "Your Excellency, your ability to shape matter is truly the most powerful of all the spellcasters I've ever seen in my life. Without your help, if you want to build to this extent, it is estimated that it would not have been possible to do it without a month or two of effort. ”
"At the current rate, how long will it take to get it all done?" Zuo Si asked without looking back as he activated his ability to perfectly fuse the piled up gravel to form an outer wall.
Since reaching Creator Level 11, he has become more and more comfortable building large magical structures like the Mage Tower.
As long as there are enough raw materials, it will be possible to cover a layer in almost a few days. Of course, unlike a normal castle, the Mage Tower needs to add a few other things to the walls to increase its hardness and resistance to various magical energies.
In this regard, Zuo Si comprehensively referred to the technology of the tower of the Floating City, as well as the local construction technology of the Mage Tower in Faerun, and chose a compromise eucalyptus.
You must know that the Floating City of the Els is not the same thing as the Floating City of Netheril. The latter is by virtue of a called
The alchemical creation of the "Core of Mithera" draws energy directly from the magic web to maintain its own huge energy consumption.
But the former is dug out from the depths of the earth
The "Heart of the Leylines" serves as the centerpiece, connecting the Floating City with the energy flowing in the leylines.
As long as the magical energy of the planet under your feet is not exhausted, then the energy in the floating city will never be exhausted, and there is no need to worry about falling down.
Although Zuo Si didn't know if there was anything similar in Faerun's underground
Treasures such as the "Heart of the Leylines". But he could borrow from those efficient energy-draining designs to make his mage tower recharge faster than a normal mage tower.
After all, for him, energy is mana, a higher class level and more cards.
