The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 65: Failed Streamer (Part 1)

The longer he stays in the outside world, the more Jona feels that all his useful knowledge comes from the book "Geography of the Western Continent" read out of interest. For an astrologer, he does not use limited Time looked up at the starry sky, but immersed himself in studying things on the ground, which is definitely not doing business.

Fortunately, Mr. Koshava didn’t care much about what his apprentices did after finishing their homework, which gave Jonah a chance to sneak a look at many books other than his major, including this geography book, and of course, a large number of knights. novel.

A native of Colombo. Jonah vaguely remembered a short chapter about the aborigines on the north bank of the Holy River in "Geographical Measurement":

The Colombo people are primitive tribes living on the alluvial plain on the north bank of the sacred river. According to the textual research of "The Formation of the Western Race" published by historian j?j? Thomas in 638 (2276 of the mainland unified calendar), The Colombo people are an ancient people who migrated from the northern continent 22,000 years ago. During a tribal split, the northern Colombo settled on the red soil plains and combined with the local aborigines. The fusion of blood gave birth to the present Western Continent. The main ethnic group of 13 countries is the "Cosivites", while the southern Colombo people moved south to the north bank of the Holy River and settled down.

In the long history of the development of Western continental civilization, the southern Colombo people have continued the behavioral characteristics of their ancestors collecting, hunting, and living in rocky domed houses, rejecting technological advancement and cultural exchanges, and have not used horse-drawn carriages (round wheels), Modern industrial products such as matches, ironware, candles, etc. maintain a primitive way of life and use primitive tribal languages.

In terms of faith, they maintain a simple worship of nature, regard "the other side" of the holy river as the highest and only **** in the world, and oppose direct or indirect contact with the river water by any mortal in order to maintain the godhood of the holy river.

It’s worth mentioning that the Colombo people’s militant character and superb spear throwing skills (even if it’s just a simple trimmed wooden stick with a stone knife as the spear body, a primitive throwing spear with sharp flint and beast’s claws to make the tip of the spear) ) Made the Kingdom of Bazelal at the southern tip of the Western Continent and its dependent countries stay away, and the route from the Southern Continent to the Western Continent was blocked. "Only two separate passenger ships a year have allowed limited communication between the West and South Continents.

The next chapter is about the geographical calculation of the other side of the holy river, which brings up the extremely expensive ferry tickets in spring and autumn and the incidental smuggling issues.

Because the products sold in the South Continent from the West Continent travel the entire world through the East and the North Continent, the selling price is often hundreds of times its cost price, and there are dangerous smugglers on the passenger ships twice a year. They spent a lot of money to buy a ticket, and when they boarded the ship, they tried every means to fill the inner bag and boot tube of the coat with musk, longhorn grass, emerald and crown purple gold, which are specialty of the southern continent, to avoid the inspection of the guards, as long as they are safe. Arriving in the Western Continent, the profitable profits at your fingertips are waiting not far away.

Jonah shook his head. Next, "The Geographical Survey of the Western Continent" talks seriously about a conflict that occurred 35 years ago. The smugglers and the mercenaries of the Chamber of Commerce launched a **** battle on the scale of five hundred people in Cherrydu. The kingdom of Bazelal was nominally It has jurisdiction over Cherry Tou, but due to the taboo of the Colombo people, Cherry Tou did not garrison, and the long and rugged road through Sukarsa Gorge prevented the Kingdom’s envoys from arriving in time.

During the battle, an unexpected fire razed the entire cherry crossing composed of wooden buildings to the ground. According to the survivors, as smoke and dust drifted over the holy river, the Colombo spear-throwing team relentlessly attacked both sides. A punitive attack, the overwhelming flying spears easily wiped out hundreds of people from the world.

Since then, Bazelal and the Westland Chamber of Commerce did not plan to rebuild the Cherry Crossing due to political and interest considerations. The mainland was embroiled in war. A powerful protector took in a large number of nobles, killers, officers, and fugitives who had fled. He rebuilt the port town on the site of Yinghuadu and quickly reopened the two-time ferry.

The protector, of course, is the blind, short, nagging cabin owner father.

This chapter was already blurred in Jonah's memory. One night when he was practicing the Star Array spell alone at night, it suddenly popped out in front of his eyes.

It turns out that Dad has ruled Cherry Du for thirty years. I was alone, guarding a huge town, facing the defeated army, Warcraft and Colombo people, undefeated for 30 years, and similarly, I did not leave Cherry for 30 years.

Jonah couldn't help but admired him, and felt sad for his father.

"Hello, brother, what do you think." Sibi asked.

"It's nothing, don't bother me practicing." Jonah replied.

They sat on the roof of room a51 to watch the night. During the time of the bright red sun Iukote, the moon also turned blood red, but the moonlight was still eternally silvery white.

Two people are sitting on the eaves, their legs dangling in the air, and the low stone house stretches through the cherry crossing, and the distant scenery cannot be seen in the night.

"Brother, have you visited the riverside?" Sibi asked.

"No." Jonah replied.

He held a fist-sized moire quartz stone in his hand. Deep and complex lines were carved on the stone with the tip of a knife. At this moment, there is a fine red light flowing slowly in the lines, like red mercury.

After the encounter in Sucasa Canyon, I don’t know if there was any encounter, Jonah has been reviewing his role in the battle. A mage should be a qualified attack exporter and the backbone of the battle. , The team's weakest and strongest attacking core,-this is what Elliott taught him.

And he, at present, is just a bad guy who needs protection from others all the time. He will use one or two weak attack spells, and he will not hit the target. After learning from it, Jonah found that the most important thing was to increase the speed of his attack. Using someone else's finger to draw a star array pattern on the floor was so stupid that he couldn't be stupid. He needed a fast and accurate casting equipment. Just start with this piece of moiré quartz stone.

Jonah stared at the stone, and the majestic interstellar line between the 30th star "Bear" in the first house and the seventh star "Boat" in the seventh house clearly traversed the night sky through the center of his body. After that, the scattered starlight was absorbed by the star array in the rock along the mysterious trajectory, and rotated and converged into a white-hot energy core.

This constellation comes from a practice question in the "Five-level Astrologer Apprentice Exercise Book (665 Edition)", titled "Failed Streamer", which aims to explain how to use simple methods to achieve an advanced and complex The powerful and powerful attacking star array "streamer" part of the function, because the energy flow paths of the two are interconnected.

A few months ago, Mr. Koshava had assigned this problem to Jonah, but the astrologer apprentice was unfortunately defeated by the problem, and drew a "failed failure streamer". After inputting energy, it served as a carrier. After a burst of green smoke, the Red Crystal split into two "ping-pong", causing Teacher Koshava to criticize him severely.

Now, after leaving the astrology tower for just a dozen days and nights, Jonah feels that he has grown greatly in both his mood and spirit. He tried to portray the star array again, and sure enough, he succeeded, even though the stone in his hand is the most ordinary Carrier material. ——The best material he can find in Yingtaodu.

"Do you want to see the fireworks?" Jonah turned to ask Sibi.

"Of course I want to see!" Sibi's green eyes gleamed in the night, like an excited cat.

Jona nodded, clenched his fists, and threw the moire quartz stone far away with all his strength. The milky-white stone rolled and flew towards the night sky, and then the star array that escaped from the controller became chaotic. The highly compressed energy core squeezed through the barrier of the star array, forming a brilliant energy explosion.

"Boom!" A tumbling orange flame burst into the starlight, with the pink halo produced by two broken star arrays, the flames expanded rapidly, illuminating the faces of the two people.

"Wow!" Sibi opened his eyes wide, without blinking.

Circles of air ripples that were almost invisible to the naked eye dissipated, the flames dimmed, and shimmering quartz powder was sprinkled, and the night calmed down.

"What the **** is it?" the occupant of an unknown room yelled.

"Little Joseph in room a42, shut up immediately if you don't want to throw the ball!" Sibi jumped up and covered his mouth with his hands and yelled back with a huge volume.

Room a42 immediately became quiet like a tomb.

"Brother, it's so good-looking, one more and one more!" Sibi turned and knelt down, staring at Jonah with extremely expectant eyes.

Jonah wiped off a drop of cold sweat on his forehead and replied: "When, of course..." He felt that, in terms of mental exhaustion, he could make about ten such "failed streamers", which would be effective in battle. To a certain effect. Of course, if the problem of stable storage can be solved, he can pour energy into more stones and send them to everyone as throwing weapons—just think about it. Jonah himself knew that the star array that did not require a manipulator was a high-end research content, and even his mentor was just a first glimpse of the door.

"Pop!" The second firework burst into the sky. The carrier of the star array this time was black obsidian, which caused the color of the flame to turn dark red.

"Wow!" Sibi blushed.

"Boom!" The third firework opened. This is a yellow basalt, the explosive color is bright lemon yellow.

"Wow!" Sibi held his heart in both hands.

"Crack!" The fourth stone is loose-textured limestone. Because of its texture, the starlight energy began to leak from Jona’s hand until it revealed its original shape, with a long tail flame hitting the roof of the opposite stone house. superior.

"Cut." Sibi said with disdain.

"The moon is really round." Jonah raised his head and changed the subject. At the same time, he labored out and took out the largest piece of stone recently collected. The large "failed streamer" star array has been portrayed with red granite weighing 25 pounds.
