How big is the benefit of robbing a monster lord?
Grim didn't want to answer this question, because his mouth was almost smiling.
The deepest part of the spider's lair was opened by the old spider to create a number of independent caves, each of which contains metal ore and rare resources worth very high.
With hundreds of years of hard work of the old spiders, the thickness of this family also makes Grim startle!
Of course, because monster lacks the fine and complete metal ore extraction Body Refinement series, so most of them store natural metal crystals and magic gems of good quality.
In the old spider's warehouse, Grim found a large number of natural magic iron metal blocks, and it is also one of the basic materials for Adept to create Magic Iron Alloy. In addition to the magic iron, Grim also found a large number of magic gems such as Thorium, Mithril, khorium, Adamantite and Evergrande, as well as Shadow Stone, opal, emerald rough, yellow crystal ...
Of course, in addition to ore and gems, the old spider has a warehouse full of Magic Stone.
Compared with Magic Stone and Magic Crystal, although they are both magic force products, the grade is much lower. Magic Stone is formed by the stone in the natural world after absorbing excessive magic element. Therefore, the magic force immersed in the inner part is extracted and a large amount of broken residue is formed. Magic Crystal is purely a crystal formed by strong magic element under strong external pressure. The unit volume of Magic Crystal stores magic force is much higher than Magic Stone.
In general, Magic Stone has a stable structure, but the number of magic force that can be absorbed is small and there are residues. The structure of Magic Crystal is not very stable, but the total value of magic force is high, and there is no residue after crushing.
So rune array and sorcerer array of high rank both need Magic Crystal as magic force source, while Magic Stone can only be used in some low-end occasions. The exchange ratio between the two is probably maintained at 10Magic Stone = 1Magic Crystal.
As for the monster nests in the Black Forest, they do not have the ability to extract and compress Magic Crystal, so most of them used and hoarded are Magic Stones that are dug out by themselves. Grim roughly estimated that the amount of Magic Stone hoarded by the old spiders was between 700,000 and 800,000, and it was also converted into Magic Crystal with 70,000 and 80,000.
Although it cannot completely offset the war cost of Magic Tower, it is not without supplement.
Moreover, there is more than one search team sent by Grim. If the other two teams have similar gains, there may be a little balance in offsetting the war losses!
But of all the discoveries, the thing that most delighted Grim was a rare bottle of ‘ground vein blood’.
This is a great complement to earth attribute Bloodline Adept. If you get the Adept trading market, you can exchange it for 30,000 Magic Crystal.
In addition, there are a large number of life partner resources of metal ore, such as Shadow crystal, Ochalite, Black Jade, Elemental Soil ... or some plant resources unique to the Black Forest, such as the Millennium Wood Heart and Giant Tree Roots , Magic vine seeds, sun flower ...
Among these miscellaneous resources, Grim also found a small-type laboratory, which is full of strange spider-shaped creature specimens and a large number of unformed embryos. After a careful search, Grim also found a piece of knowledge crystal in the lab's Miguel, which recorded what seemed to be Tula ’s Creature Transformation experimental experience and some soul knowledge.
Don't look at monster who don't have the perfect and comprehensive inheritance system like Adept , but every ambitious monster will secretly conduct some related research in private. However, their researches are isolated and secretive, and there is almost no mutual communication.
So every monster wants to research something, it needs to start from the beginning, there is no ready-made knowledge and technology at all.
The result of such research is that the research of monsters is always broken and one-sided. Although there are many bright spots, most of them are superficial due to the backwardness of knowledge and technical means. They cannot reveal the deep secrets of Adept World thoroughly!
It can be seen from the number of alienated demon spiders and spidered creature hidden in the entire spider cave that Bebilith Tula is also a guy who is keen to reproduce and transform his descendants. However, the level of combat power of the descendants it transformed is very low, which also indicates that Tula's talents and accomplishments in Creature Transformation science are very ordinary.
But Grim is not picky about these.
Knowledge crystal was placed on his forehead in less than 5 seconds, and the huge amount of data and information in it was completely copied by him. Then under the filtering and screening of the chip, 78% of the duplicates and errors were eliminated, and the rest were stored in an orderly manner by the chip.
How to use spider eggs and powerful creature to create spider creature content, Grim is not interested. However, there are still many explorations of soul research in it, which has unprecedented significance for him.
To be honest, the soul-related knowledge, Grim has been acquired for a long time, but still nothing. Research in this area seems to be those large-type adept organization and forces are in progress, and the related knowledge and progress have been strictly sealed.
Ordinary Adept doesn't have any way to get relevant content, let alone meticulously effective magic experiment.
So in the Grim chip library, the knowledge content related to the soul is almost zero. Although most of these studies by Tula are very simple, there are still many mistakes and omissions, which can still be of great significance to the guidance of Grim's!
In particular, the two or three little Witchcrafts related to the soul that were last stored in the knowledge crystal just made Grim addicted. If it wasn't for the time and place, he could hardly hold his restless mood, and immediately wanted to get their first-hand information.
After all, for an Adept , new knowledge and new Witchcraft are the most interesting content and the greatest motivation for its continuous improvement!
There are too many wealth and resources in the spider's lair. It is impossible to take away only Grim and Anguja. So Grim left Anguja to guard here, and took Medusa Dana back to Magic Tower on manticore, and then let the disciples An Mu Pseudo-Adept move back and forth with a group of apprentice and a few manticore.
Anyway, monster and large-type creature are almost dead in the nearby Black Forest, so do n’t worry about their safety. So after Grim gave the coordinates of the spider's lair to them, they gave up and started to hide in Magic Tower and slowly study the content of knowledge crystal.
And Medusa Dana, as a serious injury number, stayed in Magic Tower and cultivated carefully.
Of course, in the meantime, Meryl and Gargamel have also led back.
Although there were some twists and turns, the two also brought back a long list of resources and many strange items to Grim.
Like Grim, each monster leader's lair has a lot of resource reserves and private storage rooms. The two teams, storage space, are limited. They can only pick up those rare treasures and bring them back. For the remaining materials, you need to send someone to slowly organize and relocate.
Of course, those common resources have been handed over to Gargamel, which will be uniformly collected in the material warehouse and used as the basic resources for Magic Tower in the future. And those rare and valuable resources are carefully screened, and most of them are still assigned to Gargamel unified scheduling. As for the rare ones, they were all taken into the private room by Grim.
In order to gather the hearts of Three Heads Demonic Hound and Medusa, Grim's lair is still intact, and they are still left to take care of themselves. Therefore, the settlement work is mainly concentrated on the lairs of Bebilith Tula, Violent Giant Baboon, bird demon and snake devil.
Although the bird demon and snake demon are also devoted monster, they are limited in strength, and there is no treatment for the two monster leaders. They can only pinch their noses to contribute all the belongings to Grim, leaving only some Clansman and the resources you need.
The successive relocations continued for more than ten days, until the last Silver Union Profound Truth Adept rushed to the construction team, Plague Forest, no, rocky pile is still lively and noisy. It is suspected that it was in the wrong place.
The former Plague Forest has disappeared completely, replaced by a rocky pile in Fangyuan 5. The dark soil is mixed with broken rocks and fragments of stubs left after the overturning of ancient trees ... these are the last traces left by the past Plague Forest.
However, at the moment, in the center of rocky pile, a huge hole was dug out, and a new winding underground channel has also been opened. In addition to the manticore who acts as a transporter, there are many low rank monster common in the Black Forest.
They are like the most industrious coolies, constantly unloading boxes of heavy objects from the fully loaded manticore, and then humming hard to carry them into underground.
Facing the ‘strangers’ suddenly approaching, flocks of birds and demons flew up into the sky, holding rough javelin and spears in their hands, blocking them from the periphery. On the ground, seven or eight adult men with human upper bodies and snake-like long-tailed snake devil swayed their bodies, holding Xueliang's narrow and long battles in their hands and surrounding them.
Silver robes Adept came here this time, but they used a floating disc unique to Silver Union. Although its flying height is not as high as that of an airship, it is very flexible to operate and is more suitable for short-distance flights within a hundred miles.
"Did that Adept Tower not resist the attack of monster, and it has become a paradise for Monsters?" A silver robe Profound Truth Adept couldn't help whispering.
"No, I'm afraid the opposite!" answered the Eugene Adept who was responsible for protecting the two Profound Truth Adepts: "Look at the edge of the hole ..."
Silver robe Profound Truth Adept looked at it carefully, and it turned out that one or two Apprentice Adept figures were found on the edge of the hole. They are not the captives or slaves of these monster, but are like the supervisors of the construction site, and they are commanding and commanding with high spirits.
Seeing the silver robes on Eugene and others, Kodak Pseudo-Adept quickly called the birds and snakes back, and then greeted them in person.
"I do n’t know if you are the distinguished Adept from the Rudfini firm?"
"Yes, we are indeed from Rudfini."
"That's great, my teacher is waiting for you in Magic Tower. Come with me!"
Several silver Adept glanced suspiciously at each other, followed silently behind Kodak, and entered the underground channel filled with sulfur and flame.
