Chapter 112: Forbidden Spells
The word forbidden spell made Shang Luo's ears prick up - he thought that the forbidden spell might be some kind of powerful spell?
[The forbidden spell may not be what you think.] Let me put it this way, you can understand the forbidden spell as a legal code. Forbidden spells are currently divided into three levels, but they are not classified by power, but by the level of danger. Some forbidden spells may not be able to throw a single fireball, but it is extremely dangerous. 】
"For example? What are Dragontooth Soldiers like? ”
[The Dragon's Tooth Soldier is a level 2 forbidden spell, and it can also be called an earthborn. A blessing from Ares, the god of war. There are two ways to get it, you can get the dragon's tooth in Cadmus or Iason's tour. Once the dragon's tooth is planted, the dragon's tooth soldier will grow out of the ground. 】
"Is this dangerous?"
[The Dragontooth Soldier is wise, it will start to organize itself and start the war on its own. 】
"Good guys!" Shang Luo understood the danger of this thing as soon as he heard it, "Then what can they do?" How dangerous they are depends on their fighting power. ”
[Dragontooth soldiers are equal in combat power to Greek phalanx infantry, but they can also build cities without sleep, and they can also multiply themselves.] Even if you only sow 5 Dragontooth Soldiers, they will be able to build a city of Dibi with an army of Dragontooth Soldiers, and then start updating their equipment. If the Dragon's Tooth Soldier accidentally escapes, even just a little bit, an endless army will take root and grow. Legion-level combat power must be dispatched to suppress it. 】
"Is it so dangerous or only level 2?"
[Because the dragon tooth soldiers have a weakness, that is, they are prone to infighting. In the original myth, if you throw a stone in the middle of them, they will kill most of them themselves, so they don't have to worry about expanding to the point of flooding the earth. In fact, if you only have these abilities, the Dragontooth Soldier can only be counted as a level 1 forbidden spell. It's added one level because it's the spirit of the god of war, Ares, and if you use it too much, you'll pull the god of war Ares, and that guy is quite difficult to deal with. But I have a vague feeling that this is a bit dangerous. 】
"Why?"
[Because when the Dragon's Tooth Soldiers were ranked, the observation time of 'Thebes City' was still too short. I've looked through the reports, and I've observed that the Dragon's Tooth Soldiers are cooperating with each other, and they can even trade with each other with the newly created Dragon Teeth. 】
"Aren't they going to fight themselves?"
[That's the key.] There are actually differences between the dragon's tooth soldiers, and legend has it that before the construction of Thebes, the dragon's tooth soldiers first killed each other through civil war, and only 5 were killed. However, instead of fighting among themselves, the five dragontooth soldiers began to work together with each other, and finally the city of Thebes was founded. However, it seems that because of the influence of Ares, after the city was built, they would start fighting among themselves again, which is a story for another time. But the dragon tooth soldiers always seem to be able to screen out suitable city builders as if they were raising Gu. In a short period of time, they established the order of the city-state by cooperating with each other, and there was even the phenomenon of trading with each other's teeth, as I mentioned earlier. 】
"Why do I feel a little wrong, where are these dragon teeth kept?"
[As a forbidden spell, the dragon's tooth is never kept. Every time you want to use it, you will first play a Cadmus or Iason's tour, and the specific one depends on which one is in the open cycle. After using up the Dragon's Tooth Soldiers, all the Dragon's Tooth Soldiers will be destroyed on the spot, and there will be no Dragon's Tooth left. The next time you need it, just play again. Anyway, the Romans were already very skilled in the process of playing these two pilgrimages. 】
"I always feel like they're there. Farming copies? ”
[Wait a minute.] Apollonia is already very skilled. Whenever Shang Luo popped up some strange words, she took the opportunity to search for them.
[It's very similar, indeed.] Essentially, though, video games are 'mechanical' ways to simulate your impact on another world, which is the same thing the Romans had in mind. Different paths lead to the same goal, so Rome will indeed have a lot of such a saying, such a 'play'. You'll probably see more mechanics like this, and you seem to be fairly easy to get started with? 】
"It seems to be?" Shang Luo wasn't sure yet. But Rome's "gameplay" does seem to be much easier to play, and there are a lot of mechanics to interact with. The tour is simply playing dungeons, and even starting to shake people to form a team to place dungeons.
"By the way, why is Rome so focused on such a mechanism?"
[I don't understand.] If I had understood the Romans, I'm afraid I'd have stayed with the Romans forever. But one thing is for sure – it's even a lot like a video game. No matter how strong you are in the game, you are fake. Why don't you ask him? You can ask him what he really thinks. For example, you ask him what he wants to eat. 】
"Mr. Titus, we'll arrange for you to dine when we get there. What do you want to eat? ”
"Turnips." Without thinking, Titus replied, "Can I taste Aurora's fairy root turnips?" The ones you planted in the New World. ”
"You haven't tried to plant?"
"It didn't work, we ate it didn't work. I was wondering, maybe it had something to do with where I took it? Or is it something to do with the season? It is also possible that it will be eaten in the land of Aurora. ”
[It can't be useful.] Magic has created so much karma that they owe it to the world, so it is impossible for the world to see it. Until these karmic obstacles are paid off, turnips cannot be useful to them. It also means that they have nothing to do with the Immortal Law. This meant that there was an insurmountable gulf in the future of the Romans. This divide is called: lifespan. 】
"Their physique has never been able to change?"
[Yes.] Even if 99 forbidden spells could be driven at the same time, the Romans themselves would be as ephemeral as a drifter. Although they can even be divided into 6 people to play flower work in their lifetime, they can constantly hone their strength like a meat pigeon game - but when they go offline, there is nothing. Dead, nothing. No matter how deep their interaction with the world is, there is a pathetic barrier between them and their own transcendent powers. Perhaps it is precisely because of the 'isolation' from the transcendent that they can play a lot of tricks in terms of mechanics and operations. In Aurora, this barrier did not exist in the first place. 】
"If I had a choice, I would actually prefer to be an Aurora." Titus made no secret of his envy, "The more we explore the otherworld, the more we feel our own insignificance and short-livedness." Heroes and myths live forever, and the King of the Forest has been wandering the jungles of Nemi since before Rome was founded. And we, the wretched mortals of the flesh, are as fleeting as dewdrops. Lamentable. We will even be killed by disease. Do you know how the last Commander of the Interior Guard died? ”
Shang Luo cast an inquiring look. Titus gave the answer:
"He was hit and killed by a big truck that ran a red light."
