The Amber Sword: Act 233: City of Trees (4)
City of Trees in Act 233 (4)
This Correct Teleportation Gate type lair seems to be connected to a secondary plane channel. This type of lair generates creature mostly by summoning. summoned creature serves the summoner by means of equivalent exchange. Brando took a look at this light gate(s), and took two sub-moon crystal from Dimensional Hole and discarded it. Sure enough, Light Vortex became bright soon, and then a small head came out of it.
That looks like a girl with three inches high little man, or a similarly scaled-down girl, with curly long hair and as thin as a cicada's wing clothing, glowing all over the body, without wings, but can stay in the air at Agile.
She looked outside in the vortex, and then flew in front of Brando and the others, respectfully said: "Hello, Lord Thane." Her voice was thin and her accent was strange, as if she was a foreigner speaking at a glance Kirrlutz language.
While talking, the girl looked at everyone with curious eyes, but she was not afraid.
"The Thane in her mouth is the owner of the Magic territory. It is similar to your human Thane, but it is different. From Magic creature's point of view, only those who master the power are natural Thane. They do not agree with the title of reputation "Medissa explained to Scarlett and Romaine on the side.
"Oh." Romaine snorted and didn't know if he understood it.
Brando nodded, different from Scarlett and the others. Because of his past experience in game, he is no stranger to these Magic creature, so he asked directly: "What's your name, what is creature, what ability do you have?"
"My name is Monica." The girl put her hand on her chest, and introduced herself, "We are Light Spirit, the Light race entrusted to protect this sacred land. Our ability is to cultivate this World Tree Fortress. "
"World Tree Fortress?" Brando frowned. For some reason, he was familiar with the term and always felt as if he had heard it somewhere. However, if I recall carefully, I don't know whether the memory of this segment comes from the past game or the story of those myths and legends in this world.
"World Tree Fortress, or Lord Thane as you say, it can be called Valhalla, but Valhalla is actually the name of second seat World Tree Fortress. This is third seat, and it is the last one." Monica replied.
"What second seat third seat, what exactly is World Tree Fortress?" Brando could not help asking.
"I do n’t know, Lord Thane, our knowledge comes from the inheritance of magical power, as it is said in memory, this tree is the initial form of World Tree Fortress, I only know this."
Brando nodded again. Monica's statement is not strange. Many of the knowledge spread in the blood are just words. However, he just asked this question, and he was more concerned about the growth potential of Valhalla.
"Your ability is to cultivate this tree. How to cultivate it?"
"World Tree will grow slowly once it sprouts, just think of us as the gardener who trimmed the leaves of the tree, Lord Thane," Monica replied.
Brando understands clearly: "So you are the workers in this town, can you understand that, right?"
Monica nodded: "The same can be said, we can help Lord Thane build this city according to your wishes."
"So what can you build now?"
"I can't do it alone, Lord Thane, Light Spirit are not omnipotent! I need more people to cooperate with my work. If there is one, two, three Light Spirit, I can help Lord Thane construction of the tree nest. "
"tree nest?" Brando is puzzled. He is familiar with the construction order of the Aouine Kingdom, such as the noble military barracks and blacksmith shop. He has also seen some high-end buildings, but he has never heard of such a term: "That is What? "
"tree nest can cultivate the roots and roots of ancient trees. They are the most basic defensive forces of World Tree. Their strength is about the peak of silver, but they cannot leave World Tree, Lord Thane. You can think of them as a kind of mobile defense fortifications. Or the guards of this town. "
"In addition, dryad and World Tree are actually one and a part of World Tree, so they do not need Mana Pool to provide power. tree nest can be building on this square, or treetop on the upper floor, and does not need to occupy the position of Mana Pool." Mo Nika added.
"Part of World Tree?" Brando thinks this sounds like a wither of Golden Demonic Tree, but he does n’t need to occupy the creature lair of Mana Pool. Although he ca n’t leave World Tree, it can be used as defense. silver Peak Guard: "How many such guards can the Tree House make?"
"Now World Tree's Space can accommodate up to one, two, three, or four tree nests, and each tree nest can generate one, two, or three ... ten roots, Lord Thane." Monica took it seriously Computational Road.
Forty, this is really rare. Brando is a bit disappointed. If there are hundreds, then he can rely on Valhalla and sit back and relax. but thinks that's right, now Valhalla is just a big slap. Just putting down the City Hall seems a little crowded, even if there are hundreds. Thousands of guards had nowhere to hold them.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Valhalla ... I mean this World Tree, how can I continue to grow?"
Monica replied: "This is our Light Spirit's quest / mission. Our quest / mission is the birth of Mana to nurture it to grow, but if only Monica alone, World Tree needs about one or two to grow to the next stage. , Three ... "
"Wait, don't count, you can just say how many years you can." Brando heard that Monica had been turning her fingers and turned over to count to forty, and finally couldn't help sweating, He was afraid the little guy would count until it was dark.
"How many years do you know?" Monica stared at Brando with serious eyes, and seriously considered whether one's own Lord Thane was a fool and asked such a mentally retarded question.
Brando immediately knelt, and the two bargained there for a long time, and finally figured out that it would take two hundred years for her to cultivate this World Tree alone.
"Two hundred years!" After hearing this number, Scarlett was taken aback. As a standard mortal, the -- that she accepted a little over two hundred years ago was still a bit of an obstacle.
"That is to say, as long as you have two hundred ethnic people, Monica, you can shorten this time to one year, right?" Brando has a set of calculation methods for one's own, after all, 400 moons crystal Not an unacceptable price to him.
"Let me calculate ..."
"Don't count it first, you just tell me if it is." Brando is another sweat. In the previous discussion, he already found that the Light Spirit was not just counting but ten, but their officers seemed to I like one board at a time, I don't like saving steps.
"Okay, but if it is to be completed within one year, we can't pump make a move to help Lord Thane build other buildings." Monica thought for a moment, and answered.
But this is not a problem for Brando, he can totally pay some Light Spirit to help him building territory. But this idea just came into being and was seen through by Monica, she immediately broke the Brando's illusion:
"Lord Thane and Teleportation Gate have a limit on the number of passes in a certain period of time, wouldn't you want to summon thousands of Light Spirit to help Monica?"
"Upper limit?" Brando's daydreaming is like a mirror falling to the ground and smashing. He never expected such a setting: "What is the upper limit?"
"Light Vortex can only withstand one, two, three ... twenty energy transitions per month."
"Is that twenty?"
Monica nodded.
Twenty a month, it only takes up to ten months to summon two hundred Light Spirits. In this way, the fastest growth of World Tree to the next stage is at least one and a half years. Brando is a bit disillusioned. It feels like how long he has, he originally thought that the Valhalla fortress could become a main force in his hand in a short time.
Fortunately, Monica gave him the final a ray of hope in the next words. Monica said that Teleportation Gate can be expanded, but the premise is to build a Moon Tower in Valhalla.
Moon Tower this thing Brando is clear, it is an annex building of Wizard Tower, its function is to train Astrologer. In game, Astrologer is actually a kind of wizard specialization. Their ability is oracles, and they are also proficient in guiding Mana.
Astrologer can transfer the location of Mana convergence point, or guide Mana in Mana Pool into lair through Moon Tower to increase the creature output of lair, or improve the efficiency of alchemy laboratory.
This is their role in game. What Monica wants to use now is obviously the first role of Moon Tower. Although Brando does not know that Attributes in game is not working here, but since Mo Aborigines like Nika said yes, and Medissa didn't object, then there would be no problem.
A Moon Tower can strengthen three other buildings. Although Moon Tower itself also needs a Mana Pool location, its effect is equivalent to dividing Mana Pool into three. In the past, game was not an unpopular building. However, in the primary territory, building Moon Tower, Brando felt that he must be the first to break new ground.
Common Thane players are either building Wizard Tower or crystal pools, and even less lair, let alone Moon Tower. Although Brando has never been a Thane, I also feel that this is really amazing.
But with Moon Tower, the output of Light Vortex can be upgrade to forty, Brando is very optimistic about the growth prospects of Valhalla. After all, the title of the most legendary territory of Amber Sword is not his seal. He regards Valhalla as his biggest potential future. , So long as this fortress can be revived faster, it doesn't matter how much you invest.
So Brando summoned the remaining nineteen Light Spirits with the remaining secondary moon crystal. I do n’t know what kind of bad hobby it is because of the designer. There seems to be no male in the Light Spirit race. All the summons are reduced in proportion. The soft girl, and it is noisy like a real Fairy, and in the hall of World Tree, it will be noisy like the most prosperous bazaar of Aouine.
Brando and other people can't help a little headache when he sees the light sphere flying and noisy. He can fully imagine how "lively" this tree city will be when there are thousands or even tens of thousands of residents. In fact, He wondered if the rest of the city could sleep well.
But at the same time, he also asked Monica about other Light Spirit abilities, and learned that their 20 sisters, building and Moon Tower, took about a week, which is not too slow. building Moon Tower needs to use wizard magical power, if If Brando only helps with Ciel and his apprentices, half-toned rivers and lakes Sorcerer, it is estimated that it will take at least two or three months of --. This is also the construction of Wizard Tower cycle estimated by Ciel.
At the same time, in addition to tree nest, Light Spirit will also construct two special buildings belonging to Valhalla, Valyrian warrior Hall and Wind Archer Camp.
I haven't heard of these two buildings Brando, but according to Monica, these two buildings belong to the core ability of Valhalla -- is the ability to save Heroic Spirit, so Brando guess may be training these two For special troop type buildings, Monica said that neither of these buildings need pond of mana, so he must put them on the building schedule.
After all, this is the fundamental purpose of his need for Valhalla.
The construction of the Valyrian warrior hall requires ten Light Spirit jobs a month, Wind Archer Camp is a little shorter, but it also takes three weeks. Brando intends to place the warrior hall on the square, directly opposite City Hall, and Wind Archer can use second floor, tree nest building from Valhalla. On the treetop layer, all the Space currently owned by Valhalla is used up.
He just finished the calculation here, raises head saw Flo coming in with a few people. Behind her are the second son of the Knight Minteye, then Cagliss of Personal Guard Captain, and two other long bows, Forest Elf girl of tall.
Cagliss walked in the World Tree hall, looking around curiously like a monkey, without noble style. But the two elven girls are not much different, and they both looked at the hall of building in the tree with surprise.
For Forest Elf, they have never seen an architectural style similar to their hometown outside Green Tower.
But when Brando saw Caglisse and Forest Elf together, the first thing that came to mind was whether there was any progress on the Bolu and Tamar side.
