Black Scepter Chapter 64: What is   facing? (5k)


【Beg monthly ticket! 】

The gladiatorial exhibition competition is different from all previous competitions in nature. It is officially funded by Byzantine performances-strong warriors and beasts fighting, fifteen people against fifteen people fighting in groups, mage showdowns, etc. These are highly ornamental but The slightly deliberate game is mainly for ordinary people. Those who are really strong are naturally not interested in watching this fake performance, but after the whole event lasted for a month, when the Dragon Knight Morpheus appeared in the gladiatorial stadium, the audience was still boiling. .

The dragon’s posture crossed the field and had a “spell showdown” with more than fifty high-level mages—although it was actually just some undesirable low-level spells that attacked each other, it still brought up The people stood up and cheered. After half an hour of performance time, the whole duel field was almost crowded by the influx of people.

There were three such exhibitions. When the grand ceremony came to a close, Morpheus and Emperor Edward III took the stage, and they also gave a very brief speech after the speech of the emperor His Majesty—and obviously, The limelight of Morpheus has completely overshadowed the supreme Byzantine emperor.

When many nobles worry that Morpheus will pay for their "passover", not many people will think that all this is just the result of discussions between the monarch and Morpheus. Duke Acar, head of Windsor, and Morpheus took Jeanne, Ashcandi, and Andalil to have an intimate dinner with Emperor Edward III inside the palace. This type of treatment is not enjoyed by the nobles of the entire empire. After all, this kind of meeting was originally called Morpheus alone, but it was obvious that Edward III gave the face to let Morpheus's "relatives" call together-not only the form, but more importantly, Joan and Ash Candi has some words to clarify in person.

Because of his actions, Jeanne was completely divided from the Inquisition and the Patriarchal Holy Court-but as the emperor of Byzantine, he knew what a key role this extremely courageous girl played. It is needless to say that Feng Shang is young, and Joan has won the title of Lord. Obviously this is a heart-warming pill to show the attitude of the Byzantine royal family.

And for Ashkandi, Edward III did not make too many secular commitments, but only illustrates the current attitude of the major empires towards the Holy Gabriel Empire. Obviously, the most urgent desire to arrest Ashkandi is currently only It would be this group of religious lunatics, but after Morpheus showed his amazing strength in the swordsman competition finals, the sacred Gabriel empire could not be as arrogant as ever, and countries would certainly use this to show their attitudes The theocratic empire took cold treatment.

After this dinner, the Byzantine thing came to an end. Morpheus knew that he could not stay here forever, and after saying hello to his father, he was ready to return directly to the city of West Sellin. Lies and Hiddink came to say goodbye Waiting for a group of friends, and what made Morpheus a little surprised was that Duke Azshara also appeared.

Prince's daughter Lilith gave Morpheus a "vicious" hug, almost letting Morpheus breathless, but she didn't say anything more, just said that she wanted Morpheus to keep the correspondence, so she stood aside ——Duke Azshara came here as if just to nod and say “goodbye” to Morpheus, there will be no more words.

Hiddink and others said goodbye. Hydera appeared in a square outside the Nobel area. In addition to Morpheus and others, a black coffin was thrown on Hydera’s back. , The sender did not pay attention to what it was, but collectively looked at the faucet in the center of Hydera and watched it disappear into the cloud instantly.

The Duke of Acar looked back, although the Duke’s Palace behind him was once again deserted, but obviously, the series of effects brought about by the return of Morpheus has made the Windsor family completely from the first step of the empire The edge of the nobility stood at the apex.

"What surprises will come next?"

Thinking of the scenario where Old Palfa brought Morpheus to Constantinople for the first time, the old Duke couldn’t help but sigh slightly. Edward III has launched a new exploration plan based on the chart of Morpheus-the glory of the empire is not the apex at this moment, but it is just a peak Start.

........

When the dragon landed in West Sellin, a huge open space was dug outside the Earl’s Court, and a large area of ​​excavation was carried out. Obviously, the construction plan of the entire Magic Academy has been started, and the location is in West Sellin. The center of the city-it is also basically the center of the entire Lampard territory.

Creevey has arrived here seven days ago. In his eyes, he has no interest in any contests. Only in his eyes are the magical patterns and one puzzle after another. His obsessive focus on work makes him draw from above his head in Hydera. Outdated, there is no time to look up.

As a big Archmage, Sunderland also has to admire this young man who is lower than his own but has a very high level of magic. The research of element theory and the research of defensive formations do not belong to the same field, but obviously the top fields must be connected. Where, within a few days, Creevey, which had already drawn the basic magic circle, impressed Sunderland with his own ability, so that when Morpheus came to the magic laboratory, he was still immersed in all magic circles of Creevey In the study of the puzzle behind perfect overlap.

"Going well?"

Morpheus’s words interrupted Sunderland’s thinking. The mage raised his head from his desk and turned to see a simple chief executive, who simply saluted and said: "All the current infrastructure has been step by step. The first phase of the main pedestal will be completed in about four months."

"Four months."

Morpheus narrowed his eyes slightly. This time was longer than he expected. It was a defensive vacuum period when building a magic tower in the territory. This time still appeared after the Morpheus "Dragon Knight" prestige spread to the mainland and caused a deterrent effect. Much longer.

"What are the main delays?"

As the chief consul, Morpheus admitted that he couldn’t understand the perspectives of those complex building structures, and he refrained from doing anything for the layman to lead the expert, so he didn’t make any decisions at this moment, but asked with humility.

"The foundation construction of the tower has the participation of a magician and can be completed in three weeks, but the depiction of the magic array needs at least one month-because it is not only the defense or offensive method inside this magic academy that needs to be portrayed If you want to play a role in protecting the entire territory, you must also draw a joint magic circle in other towns throughout the territory... This involves painting a very large array. The area of ​​the circular magic circle may need to surround the city of West Sellin. Circles, with a diameter of up to ten kilometers... This Falun conservatively estimates that it takes a month to paint, because it is very difficult to survey and draw."

Sunderland pointed to the stack of drawings on the desk next to her finger, "The supply of crystal nuclei is also a problem. Although the royal family of Balice has given a lot of resources, the share of crystal nuclei is only the Institute of Magic The amount needed is far from enough to build a magic tower."

"Continue."

Morpheus has no intention to intervene.

"Because it is based on Pansell School of Magic, the final plan will definitely change greatly-to be honest, the foundation currently under construction has basically overturned the inherent pattern of Pansell School of Magic... that magic academy is more than five The centuries-old building, in some respects, the legal system portrayed in that era is still far behind now. It is not surprising that such a result, but the risk of doing so is that I cannot confirm whether the overall construction can be successfully completed. ——Four months is the time to complete the construction of the magic tower, not the time to complete the magic academy, because we have invested all our manpower on the magic tower."

"I will participate in the survey and mapping of the Magic Array. The efficiency is not improved by a hundred times. At least the time saved is definitely a lot. As for the crystal nucleus, Constantinople will ship a batch of materials in these days. And the basic magic circle plan of the entire magic academy...I can only say that you have to believe in your own abilities."

Morpheus gave his answer, which virtually shortened the duration of the entire magic tower, but he came here today not only for a magic tower, but also reached out to signal Sunderland to walk out of the study, he took the magic group The current leader came to the laboratory's exhibition hall.

Here, the three big Archmage including Sunderland have arrived, and there are more than ten main members of the Archmage stage also standing in the hall-the role of this hall is the same as Morpheus in Pansell School of Magic The common lounge I visited was similar to the existence of the demo circle, but there was a black casket at the place where the demo circle was originally placed.

This scene made some mage a little silent, because most of the things like coffins are related to blood races...They who study magic are a little bit at a loss for this black coffin, which is three or four times larger than the ordinary coffin.

"Okay, everyone is here, I will say a few words briefly."

Morpheus came to the front of the coffin, looking at the elite of the magic corps of the “night watchman”, and said bluntly: “I believe many of you are thinking about such a question: why do we have to build a building that is comparable to Butija The core of magic? Or...Why build such a cumbersome and expensive magic tower instead of a simple magic academy?"

He pointed to his back and whispered: "The answers to all questions are here."

Morpheus turned around and reached out to touch the black coffin surface, a shocking element wave flashed through, and then the huge coffin slowly opened in front of Morpheus...

"Humans, blood and even werewolves, these are not enough to be enemies that are worth alerting to now, because I can say with no mercy how many deaths they come-but the threat to the entire territory is far from Beyond your imagination."

"Boom."

The black coffin was completely opened, and the heavy impact of the wooden floor hit the glass buzzing, but the scene inside the coffin made all the mages take a breath.

Mars, the main angel imprisoned by the sealed circle, is struggling desperately.

His light wing, which was torn off by Morpheus, recovered most of the time in the course of these few days, but at the moment he was also bound by the magic circle, unable to move at all. The chest pierced by the spear still had a scary The wound, just no longer shed blood, but instead coagulated a huge dark red scar, saw the seal of his coffin opened, the angel wanted to say, but was just opened his mouth when Morpheus raised his hand for a blow The shocking element burst into the face...

"Boom!"

The poor and weak angel passed out again.

"This...This is..."

Sunderland trembled a few steps forward, and still couldn't believe what he saw.

"What you see is not a horrible warcraft or a hoax, I can simply say that he is an angel of the plane of heaven." Morpheus strengthened the seal enchantment without expression, and continued without looking back Tao: "And, it is still the main angel in the dominant position."

The exhibition hall is like a cemetery in a moment of silence.

Morpheus did not stop talking to make them adapt to this fact, but directly pointed to themselves: "I can defeat him, but it does not mean that you can defeat him, but...'night watcher' will finally meet That's right, this kind of guy. If you can't fight, don't expect me to help you, because I have to face a stronger enemy than him-and you, how far is it from defeating him now? Going away?"

He reached up and picked up the spear that was placed next to the coffin. The spear that was indestructible on the plane of the angel had more marks left by dozens of fragments of the lance, but it couldn’t hide its solid and heavy nature. , Put it on the ground, the original stone ground is as fragile as bread pierced by a fork.

"Our enemies are far from the coveted elves of the elves or the sacred Gabriel’s outdated judges-angels and demons above level I are the enemies we really have to face, and magic The construction of the tower and the existence of the Academy of Magic are to protect us from the threat of these guys."

"I said these things before, you would think I was alarmist, but I threw him here today, believe it or not, what to do in the future, you can do it yourself."

After a short speech by Morpheus, he walked out of the exhibition room directly, leaving a kind of mage still in shock. He came to the foundation of the tower under construction, and saw the parchment with the magic map. Modified figure.

"The engineering volume is not small."

Morpheus stood beside Creevey, looking at the huge deep foundation in front of him, and turned to look at this small friend who said: "Won't you feel boring?"

"Boring? No no no, I think you are really my savior."

The only thing Kerry had was that unkempt look. Hearing the words of Morpheus, he raised his head and smiled, "I never imagined that I would actually build such a magnificent magic. He believes Me, after it is built, the defense mechanism will be the most advanced on the mainland at present."

"Don't talk big things." Morpheus pouted, "Although I trust your magic array talents, but the first kind of leather in the mainland is still not easy to blow."

"Do you believe it?"

Creevey looked at Morpheus with a smile, not seeming to be kidding.

Morpheus looked around, then pulled his finger and said: "I only saw a huge defensive magic circle with a huge area, and a huge magic circle that will surround the entire city of Sisrin. As for the mainland A magic tower, I have not seen any shadows yet."

"Look, this is the difference between expert and layman." Creevey pointed to his feet. "Although your personal strength is enough to paint most of the magic circles I know at the moment, it does not mean that you understand these. The mysteries inside the magic circle-and the reason why I have the confidence to tell you that this is the first magic circle on the mainland, it is entirely because of the tree."

Morpheus raised his eyebrows, and then he remembered the fact that the huge tree of Hida had taken root in Sicilin.

"The energy of that tree is much stronger than any crystal nucleus. I used a simple energy test array to estimate the energy it spilled every day. The conservative estimate is enough for the current Pansell School of Magic to operate for three months."

This sentence expounds Creevey's plan in a simple and clear way-that huge tree of Hida will become the energy source for the entire magic circle of Sisyrin City!

"You are talking about overflow energy, not its own energy-that is, it is enough to drive all the magic arrays without connecting the magic array on this tree?"

Morpheus raised his eyebrows, "But how to get the overflowing energy?"

"So I think you are my savior-I have such a big problem, I am so excited that I can't sleep."

The answer of Creevey made Morpheus speechless for a while...Dare to feel that the magician has not yet solved this core problem and has started construction according to such a huge idea.

Damn, is this reliable?

Morpheus was a big head for a while, and sighed: "What progress is there?"

"The efficiency of the traditional "energy extraction" array is really dare not compliment. If you use them, it is not impossible~IndoMTL.com~ But the premise is that your entire underground world needs to be completely reformed, that is, around this tree Lay at least 580 large "energy extraction" magic circles within a kilometer of the surrounding area-because its energy extraction efficiency is too low, I think you will definitely not agree to this plan, so I am trying to improve this magic array ,"Creevey took out a drawing,"The current effect is only to reduce the number of magic circles by 30%, but obviously this is not a level that can be implemented."

Morpheus looked at the circle, although his magical level is higher than Sunderland, but obviously in this slightly unpopular cutting-edge field, his voice is not much higher than that of Creevey, although I can see three places at a glance. Improvements, but obviously these will not solve the problem.

"Recovery of Overflowing Energy...Which part of the subject has the most research on this subject?" Morpheus simply adopted a curve method to solve the problem. "Maybe some cutting-edge information is not publicly available, but I think I should try Try."

"This is indeed your job...Let me think about it--the cutting-edge laboratory of the Gilman Empire has some literature related to this topic in recent years, but apparently they will not mention it after publishing three papers. And this matter, according to the convention, should be banned by the official and transferred to the secret research and development stage, so—"

He shrugged and looked at Morpheus, which could not be more obvious.
