Chapter 661: The Problem
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"So, how many people is she going to give me?"
"The first batch was five hundred, two hundred of whom were mages and apprentices. But some will gather from various cities in the future, but the warriors will make up the majority. There are about 2,000 people in total, but this is only the first batch, and if you want, you can reach 30,000 people......" said Dahni.
"Male?"
"Yes. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, these guys originally believed in Siventam and Velon, right?"
According to Rose's personality, this answer is not difficult to guess.
These guys are nothing more than the residues left by those losers, the gods die, and his original priests are finished, the slave power of these gods is almost all derived from the gods, without the gods, they can no longer obtain divine magic through guò prayers, and they can't find a new backer, so they have nothing to do except be a little stronger, and even many evil gods will die when they die, drawing strength from the priests to make a last stand, and leading these priests to die madly.
But mages and warriors, generally speaking, there is no such problem, the strength of the warrior almost depends on its own strength, and the occasional little divine grace does not matter.
These fighters are actually quite good, at least they can be combat power.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
Edward didn't think that this spider queen would fall in love with him after having so many dewy loves, and think about a mortal - the time for the spider god to become a god is ten thousand years, and even if there was a little emotion, it would have been weathered into a wall of rock long ago, and there was
Not to mention that he is such a mortal, there are many demons in the abyss, and I have never heard that this majesty has a special affection for which storage zài, this time in order to upgrade her divine power, her own son and daughter also said to eat it with her grandson. How can you have any feelings for yourself?
Reward? Ha, to put it bluntly, isn't it a means to exclude dissidents?
However, in fact, there is no need to be so careful, after all, these hundreds of mages and thousands of warriors are genuine, and besides, the guy who has lost his backer is indeed more likely to be controlled.
"No problem. So. Thank you for the gift of the queen of spiders. ”
"Well, then, it's my turn...... Well, Edward, Belle Lena has something to give you. "Swallow a large piece of caramel egg. The little girl wiped her mouth: "Guess what, what is it?" to give you a hint." It's the best thing you want, huh?"
"Find Elena's way. ”
"Hmm. It's not right, but it's pretty much the same."
"According to Her Majesty's observations, Sister Elena may have been brought to the outer realm by some celestial creature, and although she may be able to control her position, you better not take any chances. Because in the outer realm, whether it is a celestial creature or a god's power, it is easy to wield, and you can't handle it with your current half-tone. Oops, don't pull my clothes. Real, it's all crumpled!"
"Where in the outer realms, at which level?"
"Didn't you say it, with your current strength, it's too dangerous, but it's not difficult to catch her......"
Not difficult?
It's not difficult to have a ghost.
In this world, this multiverse, the reason why the main material plane is regarded as the core is because it is the midpoint where all forces cannot be easily controlled, and the rejection of the forces of other planes allows the main material plane to maintain a unique balance, but it is like the eye of a typhoon, the so-called calm can only be achieved in this central area, and any of the seventeen main planes in the outer realm is full of danger.
The abyss and hell full of demons, the heavenly mountains and the realm of bliss occupied by celestial creatures, the gray wilderness of the undead, and the mechanical realm infested with mechas, no matter where they are, even if they are connected to the astral realm, they are all in danger......
Edward may have been able to fight a god with special abilities, but what if he was facing a group of powerful creatures that were not gods?
Needless to say, the result is not at all.
The Outer Realm, on the other hand, is where such creatures gather...... Not to mention the almost endless demons in the lower realm, even the creatures that are classified as angels are already trillions, as long as the Blazing Heavenly God serves the level of the Immortal God in a group, it is enough for Edward, a mortal, to drink a pot, not to mention that Ariel is outside the main material plane, but he is not limited by his strength, how easy is it to capture it without harming his life?
So, for this so-called 'Reward of Bell Lena', Edward just smiled lightly.
The danger in this is pointless even to complain to Lisa, after all, Miss Half-Elf is just a mouthpiece.
"What is Majesty Bellena going to do for me?" After a pause, he asked,
"Strength is the foundation of a battle. Lisa replied vaguely, snatching the plate from the Psychic Warlock's hand.
Edward tugged at the corners of his mouth.
The truth is correct - as long as the strength is sufficient, no enemy will dare to take a provocation lightly. And degree is also fundamental, as long as you can solve the opponent as much as possible, it is enough to finish the matter and return to the main material plane before all the gods are ready to deal with it.
But when it comes to implementation, it's not as simple as talking.
"Her Majesty didn't tell me where Sister Ailena was, she said that she was constantly moving, and she could only confirm that she was moving back and forth between the astral realm and the lower realm, and she had changed several levels," stuffing the pudding into her stomach in two mouthfuls, Miss Half-Elf's gaze turned on the plates of the other two, and then she barely collected her thoughts: "However, she said that with your current strength, it must be very dangerous to want to go to her, so the reward for you is to be a god's position." ”
After talking for a long time, don't you just want to follow Rose's example and use him Edward as a free thug......
The Psychic Warlock nodded slightly, not even continuing to ask.
For Lisa, Edward trusted, no matter how confused this half-elf lady was, at least he would never do anything to endanger him, but to say that he would trust Bellena as well...... That would be difficult, unless the Dark Lady, like Elise, had the core god enshrined in the kingship.
Bellena helped Edward a lot. Regarded as one of his important allies, but allies are only allies after all, Edward does not think that this goddess is worthy of entrusting his safety, especially now, under the premise that she has formed an alliance with Rose - although there are few but not none of the beings who sacrifice their lives and righteousness among humans, even those who keep shouting that 'animals are friends of humans' are difficult to choose to sacrifice themselves to save their animal companions when their lives are threatened, and it has nothing to do with trusting friendship, but not in the same dimension at all.
But. It was a comfort to Edward to be able to find Elena's whereabouts, although the fact that the damned Ariel had left the main physical plane made the psychic sorcerer vomit blood—no wonder he couldn't find the slightest clue no matter how hard he tried, and it turned out that he was already in the opposite direction. The object you are looking for is not in the service area at all.
The little dinner ended with a group of girls filling their bellies with all sorts of grease and sugar, though. When the girls were finally able to quietly concentrate on the crispy fried food garnished with salt and pepper. The cook had already arrived at the lower level of the Mage's Tower, where a few old mages worked.
"Your Excellency, can you think of a way to allocate some manpower to us? A few of our old fellows are also old, and we need our help with the intercity railway, weapon production and equipment maintenance, and there are still battlefield matters before. There are also new vehicles to be made......"
"Do you want to transfer some of the more capable ones from the apprentices to operate the alchemy circle? I really don't want to make any more printing plates for those knight novels, there is too much nonsense in them......
"And every letter is wrong to be corrected, my eyes have been hurting a lot lately......"
Around Edward, a few old guys seemed to have seen relatives. I almost cried and wiped my tears, and the core content was nothing more than crying out and being tired: "And the paper workshop, three days and two ends, they said that the output was not enough and asked us to use spells to help, I think they don't want to dry them one by one, and now we can hardly remember a few ordinary spells except for the magic work, when will we be able to complete the basic magic circle in the mage tower?"
"Soon a group of mages will be transferred, just for the past two days, you should work a little harder. ”
Edward waved his hand to interrupt their nonsense, and didn't mind slapping the old guys' confidence again: "How can they still use engraving when it comes to printing? I said, didn't you ever think of printing with movable type? Tear down the letters and put them together, this is something that ordinary people can do, right? Printing novels by edition? You deserve to be tired!"
"Active, characters, do you mean to put together a single letter?" Old Younger was stunned, this old guy's range of thinking in recent times seemed to be somewhat adapted to Edward's 'whimsy', and it was reflected in an instant: "Lord Lord, we are already old, and our brains are not flexible enough, how can we compare with a young talent like you...... Well, my lord, you summoned us for some kind of work, right?"
"No, I need to make a magic circle to control the soul and put it on a lich's life box. ”
"Control the soul?oh, that's simple, isn't it a permanent command effect, the ordinary guys are worried about this kind of spell and legend, in fact, there is no difficulty, although the magic circle is a little difficult, but as long as the depiction is fine, control zhì ......" The old guy nodded and agreed casually, but after a pause, he suddenly noticed the last limitation.
"What, you, you...... What do you say? Witch Witch Witch ...... Lich!?"
In the next moment, the old guy's tongue had already tied seven or eight knots, and he was stunned for a while, before he remembered to rub his hands vigorously: " This, this, but it's difficult, you know that the lich is a creature with a high level of magic, and the resistance to spells is also terrible, the general command technique is not effective enough, you have to use upgraded spells, there is not much problem in the depiction of the magic circle, that is, high-level materials are needed, but with the strength of only us and a few of us, even if the ring ritual cannot be improved to the nine rings, it is impossible to complete the enchantment, even with the help of the core of the mage tower, it is a little reluctant......"
"How about giving you some more help? Forty or fifty is enough?"
"My lord, making magic equipment is not a battle, and sometimes it is not possible to have enough people. It's okay if you're a spellcaster who is good at enchanting, but several of us specialize in transformational spells, which is a bit difficult in this area. ”
Old Yang Ge explained in detail with a bitter face, but the psychic's frown immediately made him swallow.
The longer you spend with this lord. The more he understood the other party's temper, and knew that this young man was quite tired of needless shirk, so his brain turned, and he immediately gave the simplest and fastest solution:
"Mainly for the design of the magic array, Your Excellency, you know, if it is an ordinary magic array, we have a precedent to follow, but high-level things need to increase energy, and the increase is not simply to increase the strength of the strength can be solved. If something goes wrong with the design, it's easy for the circle to become unusable due to malfunction. ”
"What if I give you a ready-made magic circle?"
"You'll need the materials and activation energy, but there's one more thing, if you don't plan to keep this lich's lifebox near the core of the mage tower all the time, then you can only have a powerful enough storer to infuse this spiritual power. But this infusion, like making a magic item, is meant to cause a permanent loss of power. ”
"How much is the loss?"
"Probably with a high-grade magic item. Let's say the rainbow amulet is equivalent. ”
That's not a problem...... In order to control zhì a lich. The cost is inevitable. Fortunately, although the Psychic Warlock is not good at magic, when it comes to spiritual power, he is a strong point, and he can afford to pay for a high-level magic item.
The problem is the circle.
"When it comes to enchantment spells, then there may be no one stronger than Marilyn **. And as the supreme mentor of the enchantment department, she also inherited all the magic circle materials in the academy......" The only woman among the five old mages spoke, causing Edward's brow to jump again.
Fortunately, this subtle change was immediately noticed by Old Yangge, who had been carefully observing the young city lord, and he quickly changed his words to make up for it: "Mentor Marilyn may be a little busy. But fortunately, the system of the magic circle does not necessarily have to trouble the ** master. Your teacher should also have a certain amount of research on this kind of magic circle, and Dean Hawking also has a special knowledge of enchantment spells, and he is also the former teacher of the Marilyn Mentor, so he must be able to give you enough help as well. ”
After talking for a long time, there is only one way to ask for help from others anyway.
Edward hesitated.
If he could, of course, he didn't want it to spread...... What is the concept of a lich's life box? Getting it is equivalent to having an extra magic master who unconditionally obeys orders, even if it is another ** master, this is also a very attractive thing, and this thing is still obtained from Marilyn after a struggle, and then as long as there is a little rumor, Marilyn has another reason to make a fuss.
However, the hesitation did not last long, Edward sighed, stepped out of the space of the territory, and in the next moment he was already at the door of the magic academy.
The lich's life box is a luxury, but Edward already has it, and the help of one or two ** masters is also a luxury, but Edward also has it, only to use time, this kind of luxury that is not a luxury for ordinary people...... He didn't.
I can't hide it, I can't hide it, Marilyn's hostility is something that will come sooner or later, not to mention that from the beginning, Edward didn't think that his disguise could hide from the other party for a long time, maybe from the beginning, His Excellency the ** Master had already seen through it, and just pretended not to know to get more fun.
But Katzeyek's life box must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise in the current situation, not only will he not be able to use the power of this master, but Edward will always have to worry about the opponent's counterattack.
The academy was still quiet, even quieter than Edward's impression, and along the way, even the original apprentices who had come and gone in a hurry were gone, and if it weren't for the few people on the upper floor of the Mage Tower, Edward would have wondered if this place had been moved.
Fortunately, there was no obstacle along the way, and after passing through two portals, he was already in front of Albert's study.
Surprisingly, though, Albert ...... It's actually here.
According to the general rules, this ** master actually rarely stays in his room, and when Edward helped him organize the library, it was very difficult to find him occasionally, but today he walked into the exclusive corridor, and before he could knock on the door, the ornately decorated door had already slid open silently.
Albert sat behind his desk, the high chair that made his figure look less diminutive, except that the large table was surprisingly neat, and the parchments, crucibles, and crystal bottles that Edward remembered that had forever filled the table were now gone.
And what disappeared together was the indifferent look on the face of this ** master.
Walking through the door and bowing, Edward noticed his frowning brow, the dwarf's round face, the bags under his eyes that were dark from fatigue, and the sparse beard that had not been combed made his expression a little funny, but Edward certainly didn't just find it funny.
After all, there are not many things that can make him, a teacher, show such a look. (To be continued......)
