136 New Home in the River Valley

At the southern foot of the Cast Iron Mountains, a mountain valley where grass and flowers flourish.

This is a common foothill valley with clear rivers cascading down the rocks and running through the valley, flanked by gentle grassy slopes and low hills.

The rectangular valley, about ten kilometers deep and about six kilometers wide at its widest point, was naturally far inferior to the wide Green River Valley, which was dozens of miles away, but Allegri was very satisfied.

At the northernmost end of the valley, between the river and the cliffs, the construction site has been built on a large scale. The magic tower in the middle only excavated a foundation, because the laying of the magic circle still needed to be done by Allegri himself, so Brooke, who stayed behind, did not make an arbitrary decision.

Of course, he could not let those workers sit idle, and took advantage of the beginning of spring to reclaim a large field next to the construction site, hoping to gradually become self-sufficient, and now there are tender green seedlings, a thriving scene.

The sun has been rising for a while.

In the wooden hut on the side of the field, Allegri was still asleep. This simple wooden hut was utterly chaotic, with all kinds of household items, loot that had not had time to be collected, and one drawing after another, which completely surrounded him, leaving him only a small place to sleep.

In the haze, the sun was already sneaking on his face, and he groaned, pulled up the quilt and covered his head, and continued to sleep soundly. But it didn't take long for him to feel someone tugging at his corners.

"Teacher, teacher!" a hoarse cry came, not Afra's, and Allegri reluctantly popped up and looked at the refreshed dwarf, "Hoel, don't call me Teacher. It's better for you to learn martial arts from Dios. ”

At this time, Illo also walked in leisurely, leaned against the doorpost and said, "Why haven't you gotten up yet?"

Allegri grabbed the magic robe at the head of the bed, tried to put it inside, and asked casually. "Where's Dios?"

"He can't be idle," Illo snorted, "and he went around early in the morning to survey the terrain. ”

"This is the curiosity and thirst for knowledge that a good magician should have," Allegri said without hesitation, turning his head to the dwarf, "See, you should also have this spirit, now go and study with him, if you can't find it, you will not be allowed to come back." ”

The dwarf nodded innocently. Trotting to greet his goat mount, he learned Dios' "curiosity" and "thirst for knowledge".

"Treacherous, treacherous," Illo gave a thumbs up, "By the way, didn't you say that you were going to lay out the magic circle today?"

"Yes," Allegri patted his head and jumped out of bed. He began to look for the magic array he had designed in the pile of drawings, and turned his head as he spoke. "Illo, help me ask Brooke, are the materials ready?"

"He's been waiting for a long time on the construction site," Illo laughed, "and he didn't dare to disturb you, so he could only ask me to get you up." ”

"What about Hoel?" Allegri thought for a moment. Gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you Illo, you're afraid that I will hit you in the face with a fireball, so that's why you instigated the dwarfs, right?"

Illo smiled and walked out after Allegri.

Suddenly return to this leisurely life. Allegri was a little uncomfortable, but more cherished.

Seeing from afar on the grassy slope, where Bai Ji was training with the little barbarians, and Cyrell and Bazaar were watching, he turned back to Illo and asked, "Color, what do you think of that girl?"

"Which one?" Illo snorted, glancing, "the barbarian?"

"She doesn't look savage at all. Allegri laughed.

"This can't deny the violent soul in her body, maybe one day she will tear you apart, and then it will be shattered, and that will be a miserable," Illo said.

"I'll tell her what you say, and see if she will tear you down. Allegri laughed.

Illo's face changed slightly, and then he smiled scoundrelly, "What are you afraid of, I can't beat it, I can't run away." ”

On the construction site, Brooke and Afra could be seen talking from a distance, and when they saw him, they greeted him together.

"Teacher, are you up?" said Afra with a smile.

Allegri shrugged, noncommittal, turned to Brooke and asked, "How's it going, are you ready?"

"Yes, teacher, what are your plans?" replied Brooke respectfully.

In front of him is a deep pit with a radius of nearly 100 meters, tens of meters deep, and a layer of heavy bluestone slabs is evenly paved on the ground, which is the first layer of the foundation of the magic tower.

After Allegri and Herseus's discussions, they were going to build a six-story magic tower, which was the maximum number of floors that Allegri could now withstand. With the guidance of Herseus, they were able to build a near-perfect magic tower.

This plays a very important role in future upgrades and transformations.

The magic tower he designed was composed of six main magic circles, constructing a functioning non-closed magic loop structure. However, the foundation of the lowest layer naturally does not need to be as troublesome as drawing the main magic array.

With the participation of experts such as the dwarves, after digging dozens of meters to the lower part of the dwarf, they have reached a solid rock formation, and the huge blue steel stone blocks are built on top of the rock formation, which can be said to be very stable under the dwarves' superb bonding skills.

Allegri is going to draw three auxiliary magic circles with support effects on the bottom foundation, the main of which is the "Solid Circle" that stabilizes the cornerstone of the magic tower, which is also the auxiliary circle that almost all magic circles will choose. The other two are purely Allegri's preferences, one of which is used to detect and warn of attackers who may have infiltrated from the ground, and the other is an additional support for repelling mosquitoes and beasts near the magic tower.

Drawing a magic circle on the foundation is also very different from drawing a magic circle on the blueprints, Allegri has to carefully draw the grass pattern of the magic circle on the stone, and then the experienced stonemason carves a shallow groove, and finally inlays the melted enchanted metal liquid into it to become a near-permanent magic circle, which requires the magician to have a very deep understanding of the magic circle, and can find experienced, serious and meticulous stonemasons to complete this work. Of course, this is also a huge loss of material.

For magicians and stonemasons, this is an exhausting skill. After a whole morning, Allegri finally finished drawing the first subsidiary magic circle, which was the simplest of them to repel insects and beasts.

He moved his numb hands and feet, stood up, and explained some of the basics of the magic circle to Brooke and Afra. His two students have made very rapid progress, especially Afra, which makes Allegri embarrassed.

Brooke has already begun to try to solidify high-level spells, and after a period of stability, he should be able to advance to high-level. He had learned too much in the past, and he had to relearn the magic system taught by Allegri, but after all, he had a fairly solid foundation, so he made rapid progress.

But because he is already very old after all, and the purity of his spiritual power is not very sufficient, it is very likely that he will stop at a high level and cannot be promoted again. However, he was optimistic about this, and out of the spirit of exploring the mysteries of magic, he devoted all his energy to the construction of the magic tower, and the high enthusiasm made the lazy Allegri a little ashamed.

As for Afra, she had completely consolidated her realm as a beginner-level magician, and her spiritual power had advanced by leaps and bounds towards the middle-level level. In particular, her meditation was carried out entirely under Allegri's guidance, and she could use the kind of magic compression method invented by Allegri from the beginning, and the foundation was very solid, which made Allegri quite proud.

This also greatly increased his enthusiasm for teaching, and even at such times, he did not forget to teach the connection between theory and practice.

It was two days before Allegri had fully drawn the three subordinate magic arrays, and the crisp sound of chiseling stones began to sound at the construction site.

Allegri, who had a break, was probably the first time he had been so relaxed and fulfilling.

He finally had enough time to design the magic array, read magic books, and sort out what he had gained these days, and the cabin gradually felt like home.

Once the Tower is built, the place will be safer and will be able to exist as your base.

"What do you think of this place?" Allegri and Dios stood in the middle of the hill, overlooking the whole valley, and for this more professional opinion, Allegri usually sought out Dios in favor of Dillo.

"Very good, especially after the magic tower will be built, there will hardly be any threat," Dios has surveyed the surrounding terrain in detail in the past few days, and he is already very familiar with it, and obviously has also thought about it for a while, "What needs to be decided now is, what is our relationship with Onisha? Only by deciding this relationship can we consider other issues, after all, the nominal owner of this land is him." ”

Allegri scratched his head, his current position was indeed a little embarrassing, he didn't want to be Onisha's subordinate, but if this relationship was not handled well, the trust established between the two sides would be gone.

"Do you have any good ideas?" Allegri asked for Dios's opinion.

Before Dios could reply, Herseus had already appeared on a small flame that exploded with a "bang", and grinned, "Is it a very simple thing that actually stumped the two of you?"

Allegri got off the donkey, or to put it mildly, "Dear teacher, you coaxed this magic tower to get it, otherwise you will take care of it next?"

"No problem," Herseus smirked, "as long as you marry her, everything will be solved, and maybe you will be able to become a Grand Duke in the future." ”

"Bah, am I as horny as you are?" Allegri said helplessly, he now wished that he was a water mage, and directly slammed a basin of cold water on Herseus's lewd face to see what the effect was. (To be continued......)
