Chapter 31: The Crystal Nucleus
"Teacher, don't believe it, I've really studied this thing as a mage tower, and if the functions are simplified, it won't be difficult to build a miniature and rudimentary mage tower. ”
Seeing that Imu didn't believe it, Jiayi said firmly.
Yimu looked at him like a child who didn't know the height of the sky, and said, "It's not difficult, do you know what a mage tower consists of? energy pool, bondage room, exploration room, workshop and library, which one is simple, especially the energy pool craft, do you?"
Jia Yi stood still, and said with a slight pride: "I really know this, the energy pool process is not difficult to say that it is difficult, it is not so difficult to connect the four element planes and then extract energy in a fixed way." And our mage tower doesn't need to be very complete, first of all, the bondage room is not needed, we don't study otherworldly creatures, we don't need the bondage room at all, the work room and the exploration room can be a little simpler, and it doesn't take too much thought. The Arcane Garden can also be replaced by a botanical garden, and there is no need to build it inside the Mage Tower. And we don't need to use all of it obsidian, we can just use obsidian to veneer the outer layer, like the college's bell tower. ”
Sticking a layer of obsidian chips on the outside of a building is like tiling, although the performance is far worse than using obsidian, but the cost and construction difficulty are also far from the same.
Yimu thought about it for a while according to Jiayi's train of thought, and scolded with a smile: "What kind of mage tower are you, it's basically a house built on top of an energy pool, and it's embarrassing to call it a mage tower, according to you, a mage can build a mage tower." ”
The construction of a mage tower is not idle, if a white-robed mage wants to build a mage tower, I am afraid it will take several generations of hard work, even if it is a purple-robed mage, if you want to build a mage tower, I am afraid you need to hollow out the old bottom.
A mage tower is like a fortress, not only can it detect enemies, but it can also greatly increase the strength of a mage, if there can be a mage tower, then even a white-robed mage can face a purple-robed mage. In particular, with the long-range reconnaissance ability of the Mage Tower, it can even achieve over-the-horizon strikes, destroying the enemy before it is in front of you.
Of course, if you follow Jiayi's gameplay, the cost of just building a skeleton is much smaller.
Even the academy has not been able to have a complete mage tower, but it is not impossible to treat the entire academy as an alternative mage tower, the lighthouse by the academy lake is actually the detection room and spell amplifier of the mage tower, in addition to being able to illuminate, a white-robed mage can exert the power of a purple-robed mage in the lighthouse.
However, when it comes to the more traditional mage tower, the academy does not have one.
Jiayi's plan is actually to imitate the academy's bell tower, and an elemental pool has been built under the academy's bell tower, which not only provides magic to the bell tower, but also provides magic to the laboratory near the bell tower.
What he called the Miniature Mage Tower was actually the result of his research on the Academy's bell tower.
This kind of thing is not a real mage tower for an orthodox mage, but for Jiayi, it is completely sufficient.
Jia Yi said: "Teacher, go to the complicated and simple, adapt measures to local conditions, we don't need too many functions at all, a complete mage tower is actually a waste for us, as long as there is an energy pool, the defense in our valley can be greatly enhanced, for the linden pine valley, it is completely enough, and the excess energy can be used to charge the energy storage crystal, make more magic props, ordinary people can also use magic props." ”
Yimu also agreed with Jiayi's idea in his heart, for Linden Pine Valley, it would really be beneficial if he could have an energy pool, but what kind of miniature mage tower Yimu didn't value much.
According to Kaichi's plan, the so-called miniature mage tower is just to build several rooms on top of the energy pool to use the magic in the energy pool.
Imu walked over to the pile of magic stones, groped around the side, and a dark compartment appeared on the wall, and he took out a box from it, handed it to Jiayi, and said:
"You can build any miniature mage tower you want, you can use the magic stones here at will, but be careful not to let other mages find out, inside this box is the core of the magic stone mine, for you, you can see how to use it." ”
Jia Yi took the box and said, "I have a channel, it is still very safe to use these magic stones through the Valoka Chamber of Commerce, and I am already a white-robed mage now, and ordinary people don't dare to fight our idea, just build this simple mage tower with the two of us, and it won't cause other mages to think." When the Mage Tower is built, I don't believe that anyone who is not afraid of death will dare to come to our attention. ”
If it is a small vein of magic stones that has not been excavated, they must be careful, now that the magic stones have been dug up, even if someone knows that they want to attack here, they must be prepared to pay the price, and when the transformation is completed, it is very difficult for ordinary white-robed mages to capture this place, and the pay is not proportional to the gain.
Jia Yi is more interested in the contents of this box, Jia Yi took a cursory look, this box is made of disgusting iron, and there are also sealing runes etched on it, completely sealing the situation inside, but Jia Yi knows that the contents are worth a lot at a glance, and ordinary things do not need to use disgusting iron to preserve.
This thing is generally used to shield powerful spell fluctuations, and it needs to be stored with this thing, at least it means that the magic fluctuations of this thing are not small.
"It's so tightly preserved, what the hell is it, what's at the core of the magic stone vein?"
Jia Yi still doesn't know much about the core of the magic stone mine, maybe it's more precious than the magic crystal.
He opened the iron box, and immediately a powerful wave of magic power was transmitted, permeating the entire secret room, and then blocked by the forbidden magic circle of the secret room, and it was not transmitted.
"Huh. What is this?" Jia Yi's eyes lit up, although he didn't know it very well, but just this magic fluctuation could make people feel extraordinary.
Inside the box were five or six hedron stones of different sizes, which looked shiny and shiny, with yellow and green colors, a little mixed, but all of them exuded different magical fluctuations, one after another, surging.
Im looked at Kaichi and didn't answer him, wanting to see if Kaichi could guess.
The first time Jia Yi saw this thing, it looked a little like a magic crystal, but the magic power fluctuations of the magic crystal were not so powerful at all, and he said with some uncertainty: "This, it can't be an elemental crystal nucleus, right?"
As he said that, he looked up at Imu, who was also a little taken aback, and said in surprise: "How do you know? I have been checking for a long time to be sure that this thing is a magic crystal nucleus, you haven't seen it before, right?"
Orlando has now become a purple-robed mage, and I've heard that Jia Yi is also very close to a female purple-robed mage, and may have seen it from them.
Jia Yi said: "I guess, you said that this is the core of the ore vein, and it seems to be more advanced than the magic crystal, the most likely guess is the elemental crystal nucleus." ”
Imu couldn't believe that his guess was so easy, in fact, Kaichi couldn't be sure just now, but Imu's answer was considered to confirm Kayi's guess.
This thing was found by Im from that miniature vein, in order to determine the identity of this thing, he checked the information for a long time before he was sure what it was, he didn't dare to take it out for identification, he could only slowly grope for himself, and finally confirmed that it was an elemental crystal nucleus.
The elemental crystal nucleus is the most condensed magic element core, and its value is very high, just a few small pieces, I am afraid it is worth one-tenth of the value of this vein.
Generally speaking, the elemental crystal nucleus will only have a small amount of production in the magic crystal vein, which is the most valuable thing in a vein, and it is very rare for the miniature magic stone vein they found to have an elemental crystal nucleus in it.
Imu said: "This is indeed the elemental crystal nucleus, I suspect that the vein is derived from these elemental crystal nuclei, otherwise how could there be such a small vein there, this is not a demon-rich area." It's just that I don't know where this crystal nucleus came from. ”
After finding the crystal nucleus, Im thought that there were other ore veins nearby, and dug deep into the surrounding area, but found nothing, and it was very strange why there was a crystal nucleus there.
Generally speaking, the elemental crystal nucleus is produced after a high degree of condensation of magic power, and a vein should first form a magic stone, and then the core part will be condensed into a magic crystal, and then the core will be condensed into an elemental crystal nucleus, but the ore vein encountered by Yimu seems to be the opposite, it seems that a few elemental crystal nuclei fell from somewhere, and then the crystal nucleus magic power overflowed outward, and then infected the surrounding part into a magic stone.
Jia Yi couldn't figure out what was going on, although he was a white-robed mage, he had only encountered such a miniature vein, and he didn't know much about it.
He said, "It doesn't matter where it came from, but with these few crystal nuclei, the elemental pool we built can be upgraded a little." ”
