"Archmage Siegel, thank you very much for being able to personally preside over the construction of the Myrenergy Core, and all the mages of the Federation have a lot of respect for your generosity. Gen Wilwood said this to Siegel at a meeting of the Security Council on behalf of the factional mages. The other mages stood up and bowed to him.

Siegel returned the salute and said, "I've had this intention for a long time, and now that I've become an archmage, I've mastered some techniques that allow me to improve the Myr Core so that all mages can complete this magic item." But this work is still not complete, and I have not yet come up with a more suitable alternative for some plasma lines, so this is not the best state of the Mir core. It is mainly driven by the situation that we cannot ignore the present and future threats. ”

Master Shelley smiled wearily, she respected and loved the Federation more than any of them, including herself. Even if Siegel was generous, she subconsciously wanted to be on guard. Careerists and conspirators are always there, like commanders who never disappear: "Do you have any opinion on who will participate in the construction of the Myrnecan?"

"No, I'm leaving this matter to the Security Council at its sole discretion, I'm just asking for the magical abilities of the participating mages, and the apprentices and junior mages aren't coming to join in the fun. Siegel replied with a smile.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Excellency. Mage Shelley made a look of convincing convincingness, but she still did not give up the temptation: "I believe that all the mages of the Federation would like to see the birth of the magic ship, which will be the most spectacular creation on both continents. Everybody will ......"

Siegel waved his hand, and if he continued to tout, he would change even more embarrassingly. "I think, before the manufacturing is complete. Or try not to get too excited. Even if it is successful, it needs to avoid irritating the various temples. Actually, I think they want to fly in the sky more. ”

Laughter echoed through the venue. The proposal was adopted by unanimous vote.

Beginning the next day, Siegel led more than thirty mages to begin preparations for the construction of the second Myr Energy Core, but the first thing to complete was to strengthen the power of the High Creation Circle. If you use this circle to prepare building materials, it will greatly reduce the cost. At the same time, Siegel also shared the idea of the assembly line with everyone, and hoped that everyone could work together in a standardized form as much as possible, and continue to reduce costs with a repetitive approach.

"It's also easy to replace the exact same parts. "Siegel learned a lot from making plasma repeating crossbows.

"Your Excellency, I have a question. One of the mages suddenly said, "The High Creation Circle, with the support of the Myrcanon Core, can allow the imaginary matter to exist for a long time. So if you use this method to create a Myr core, can you support your own existence?"

"That's a good question, but one thing you can't ignore is how the spells interfere with each other. Siegel patiently explained, "When assembling a defensive circle, you need to consider the interference between the various spells, especially between spells with strong elemental tendencies. The Myrenergy Core can provide a high concentration of pure elements, which means that it will have a great impact on the surrounding magic circle. When I was making the Myr Core, I didn't dare to place it next to the Energy Focusing Lens, the energy delivery system, to prevent it from interfering with each other. How long do you say the High Creation Circle can hold out in the face of the elemental wave?"

The mage nodded. Then he asked, "Will you install an energy focusing lens on the spacecraft this time too?"

Siegel shook his head, then explained, "From the current design. The entire spacecraft is only 2,000 meters long and more than 500 meters wide, and with the cooperation of several energy road markers, the Mir Energy Core can already achieve coverage, without the need for an additional energy delivery system. After all, the energy focusing lens is for the scope of the territory level, and it is a bit wasteful to put it on the ship. ”

The others had all sorts of questions, which Siegel answered as best he could. He has a lot of experience with what others ask about the circle, but he is not so proficient in other aspects. There are many things related to spells and spell-casting techniques, as well as the crafting of some magic items and the recipes of alchemical potions, and Siegel also graciously admits his shortcomings. "I'm just a bit of a mage. He explained.

Everyone only thought that he was saying a kind of self-humility, because everyone knew that no mage except a madman dared to say that he was an all-rounder, not even if he had the title of Ph.D. In fact, the Ph.D. really knows how vast the ocean of knowledge is, and the slogan in the library of the school city is: "The more you learn, the deeper you understand, the more you know your shortcomings." ”

The Mage Federation is supposed to build airships, which is a deep stimulus to the knights of the Heim Realm. How can they convince the proud of their reluctance to be relegated to the category of "doomed ground defense"? In response to the damage done to the dwarves, they also began to think about how to avoid repeating the mistakes of the dwarves. Heavier armor? This puts higher demands on Heim's iron mines and smelters, and the physical fitness of humans limits the limits of armor.

"There are still a few sets of dwarven armor from Count Siegel, let's just ask the lord to borrow them, at least try what kind of damage can cause a wound like that of a dwarf. ”

Lorde Manna intervened, and Siegel gave her the key to the weapons storage room. The knights' method of experimentation was simple: put pork inside the armor, fix it, and throw an awl forged from the air to see if it could break the armor.

They took advantage of Heimling's biggest drop: the mining platform at Zebra Mountain. The conclusion was that the quality of the dwarven armor was extraordinary, and not once the awl could pierce the armor, and the best one left a dent.

Manna told Siegel about it.

"The dwarven opponent must be using a long-range attack. If it's melee, I don't make up for it after a stab, it's too much of a waste of stamina and it's not suitable for opening a front. On the battlefield, only crossbows or arrows can cause multiple holes in the same person's body. Manna pointed out the dents in the dwarven armor to Siegel. "My lord, is it true that the armor that the dwarves have given you is the finest, completely surpassing the equipment of their troops?"

"It should be comparable. Siegel said, "The dwarves knew I couldn't put on their armor, so they gave me mainly as a gift, not as a fight. Some armor uses more steel and is thicker than actual combat troops, but that doesn't mean the enemy can't penetrate the thicker. ”

"Judging from the corpses we recovered, none of the dwarves had any weapons left in their wounds. They were naked, without any metal. And, do you remember finding gold from the ashes?"

"Gold, can dwarves still make gold?" Manna was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "You mean gold teeth or something? ”

"Well, take a set of Adamantite weapons from my warehouse, I remember there are Adamantite arrows, and maybe be able to test the way to break through the armor. ”

Manna laughed twice, but seeing that Siegel was still very serious, she said, "Lord Lord, you don't really think that the enemies of the dwarves are all armed with adamantite gold, do you?"

"I suppose it's the only enemy like that that can lift the spirits of the dwarves?" said Siegel, "Anyway, let's try it first." ”

Using the Adamantite equipment was indeed able to inflict wounds similar to those on dwarves, which made the knights of the Heim Territory gasp. On the one hand, it is a headache how to defend against such an attack, and on the other hand, it is completely attracted by the word Adamantite.

Who wouldn't want to have a set of pure gold equipment, which is the highest quality of armor and weapons. However, the knights had to find a way to survive such an attack before they could think about how to obtain the Adamantite deposits in the hands of the enemy.

After twelve days, the corpses of the dwarves finally began to dwindle, and there were only one or two a day, and only the water elemental was left to guard here. The priests were finally able to find time to purify the water, and the Shield River was finally getting clearer. However, this time the disaster has led to the extinction of all living things in the water, and it will be impossible to catch fish from here in the short term. It is expected that in a year's time, when the fish reappear in the river, the water will be able to be used for drinking.

Although the well water is not very tasty, it is good to be able to drink it during extraordinary times. There was no contagion in Heim Territory, the disease in Boulder Village had neither spread nor caused death, and the prophesied plague had not formed, which gave Red and Siegel a sigh of relief, at least the scene that the Golem had foreseen could be changed.

The unpalatable well water made the city more dependent on the drinks brought in from outside, and the sweet fruit wine and mellow ale suddenly had a large market. The easy-to-preserve rum was particularly popular, with each store stocking a few barrels, and vendors were quick to seize the opportunity.

Outside the East City Gate on this day, more than 20 horse-drawn carriages lined up on both sides of the road, full of large and small wine barrels. If it weren't for the smooth and easy roads of Heim's Collar, the heavy barrels would have crushed the axles on the road. In addition to wine barrels, there are boxes of apples and oranges, and watermelons that quench thirst are also popular. Many of the drivers were accompanied by guards who would embroider small logos on their chests, modeled after the aristocracy. This is actually a rating based on ability and task performance after the establishment of the risk-taker union, which can give employers a more intuitive understanding. At the heart of the union is Siegel's Lamp God, who is able to evaluate and process large amounts of information, and is unselfish, always impartial—and always loyal to Siegel.

Several magic apprentices are checking with the Infinite Spell Staff, which detects magic. They don't pay attention to the goods, but to see if there is any magic on the people who are about to enter the city. Beside them stood the Paladins of the Temple of Mother Earth, the only temple in Siegel that allowed the establishment of Paladins in his territory. Moreover, all knights who claim to be blessed by the gods must stand guard at the gates of the city, and use their keen sense to detect and guard against evil.

Only a paladin who does this can legitimately serve the Temple of Mother Earth.

Dressed in leather armor, Janet resembles a newcomer who has just debuted, resting on a carriage carrying apples. The journey didn't tire her in any way, but when she saw the castle in Myr, she couldn't breathe at the thought of going home.

"Finally back. She shed two lines of tears. (To be continued.) )
