The Truth of Magic Chapter 545: Send secure quota
"Mage of Midsummer."
, squatting in front of the stone portal and operating the contact device in his hand, Master Carl, when he saw Zhao Xu coming over, immediately closed the box. After there was no gap, he stood up and said hello to him.
Mage Karl’s robe is really hung with the emblem of the core member of the "Portal Strategy Team", and a series of portal completion awards on his resume show his rich experience.
When many cities in Arthur need to build portals, they need their group members to visit in person.
Otherwise, even if the town’s association branch president is a nine-ring mage, it won’t help.
So although Master Carl is only a five-ring master, this seems to be the best from the outside world, but it is only a middle-level status in the association, and he still receives great respect and generous hospitality in the towns he goes to.
Not to mention, he is only in his early forties, and he can break through himself to the next level before he enters his old age.
It’s just that Master Carl, no matter how arrogant he is, will not despise the "Mage of Midsummer" who is only in his early twenties.
even if the opponent is just an "earth player".
The twenty-year-old of the five rings is already a legendary powerhouse that means determination.
or "appointed".
Before he came over, he had been greeted by no less than three senior leaders of the association, including his immediate superiors.
The content of is only one sentence, as long as Midsummer’s request is not excessive, try to satisfy him.
However, this "satisfaction", Carl definitely does not include the "communication device" in front of him.
Only through this set of devices can this portal be able to smoothly connect to the current network, otherwise it will be separated from the island outside the network.
Otherwise, Zhao Xu’s portal is only one-way, teleporting to the designated location and then disappearing.
If he has to make it two-way, he must build another portal at the designated location, and he must also station personnel there, otherwise, as long as someone breaks into the portal on the opposite side, he will be able to reach Starfall Town. The portal is the core area of the association's residence.
"You continue to be busy. Recently, I was also quite curious about the topic of'Transportation', so I came here to take a look." Zhao Xu said.
is just the other side, but his gaze is constantly scanning the more than ten alchemists and Master Karl in the venue.
Hearing what Zhao Xu meant, Master Carl didn’t say much. He just rescanned the eye contact device box. The box was closed and the secret inside was covered. Then he continued to measure the value on a drawing board. .
Carl, who has worked for many years, has enough experience to deal with these "curious" wizards.
Zhao Xu grinned at this too, and sure enough, the sense of secrecy was strong enough.
In fact, most of the work of the portal network has been completed in Mystra, and Karl is more about building an "interface".
Normally, the construction price of a one-way portal is 50,000 gold coins, material costs and sufficient life energy, and the market price is 100,000 gold coins.
And Zhao Xu, which is just a portal that connects to the network, only needs to pay half the price, which is 25,000 gold coins for materials, and the market price is 50,000 gold coins.
Generally, this fee is paid by the local Mage Association, so Zhao Xu is waived this time.
Basically, the daily construction progress is about 1,000 gold coins. Based on the market price of 50,000 gold coins, it will take about 50 days to complete.
It’s just that Zhao Xu has delineated more than one destination this time. An additional destination requires an additional 25% of gold coins. Therefore, it will be completed in about 60 days, which happens to be the earth's crossing node.
In reality, standard portals with sufficient materials are not mainstream.
The frequency of portals used by most organizations is not high, so many things are limited versions that are cheaper, such as portals that limit the number of times per day, even if they can be used once in a few days, it is cheaper.
"Mr. Midsummer, your portal has set up multiple destinations. Will it be activated by a password?"
"Yes." Zhao Xu nodded.
"Then you need to set up and send to other places without a password, such as the abyss of Purgatory."
"This is not necessary."
Zhao Xuwan refused to say.
It’s just that his eyes are locked in the box under Master Carl.
The access point of Mage Association is restricted to filtering in towns that currently have portals.
So Zhao Xu could not select the "land of landing" through which the earth passed as the teleportation target, and the association would not agree.
Because this is the risk that the entire transmission network is exposed to the Land of Landing.
But if he re-established a standard 100,000 gold coin portal, the day lily would be cold for 100 days.
Therefore, Zhao Xu will inevitably use the portal of "Land of Falling Land" as a subsidiary door of the portal of Falling Star Town, so as to control the 50-day manufacturing period of 50,000 gold coins.
This means that he needs the key to the "contact device" in Master Carl's hand.
, as long as he does not connect to Mystra, the portal between "Starfall" and "Land of Land" will be a secret two-way passage, and will not disturb the city of magic.
The problem is that Mage Carl seems to consider the device more important than his life.
For the average person, the operation principle of the portal is extremely mysterious and complicated, and it is impossible to crack.
But Zhao Xu, a five-ring mage with 29 intelligence and potential points, is not a problem.
Give him these devices, and he can do better than Master Carl.
After taking a deep breath, Zhao Xu's gaze continued to fall on Master Carl.
Now Zhao Xu is no longer Wu Xia Amon, he has always considered defeat before winning.
If it really fails this time.
At that time, he will have to find a way to use the Nine Rings "Transportation Array" in the "Land".
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu smiled slightly.
He glanced at his own dynamic bar prompt at this time.
[Adventurer Midsummer, you perform the four-ringed paladin magic, "Pity of the Martyr". 】
[Adventurer Midsummer, "The Mercy of the Martyr" takes effect. You are immune to bruises, charms, coercion, dizziness, exhaustion, fatigue, nausea, nausea, trance and shock effects, duration: minutes ( Spell delay)]
Phantom Sound!
A strange noise suddenly sounded at the door of the room, as if someone was close and peeping there.
The originally tense spirit Master Carl turned his head and shouted, "Who!"
At this moment, Zhao Xu made a very slight sound from his throat in an instant——
"Quick burst!"
In an instant, this four-ring spell made Zhao Xu's whole body enter bullet time, as if the time borrowed from him from the future, everything around him stopped at this moment.
The magnifying glass thrown by an alchemist to the apprentice is just suspended in the air.
Zhao Xu glanced at the audience, undoubtedly most of them were attracted by the abnormal noise just now.
At this time, he was next to Master Carl. This mysterious box with the portal key was also out of Master Carl's attention for the first time.
only for an instant.
was stretched by Zhao Xu to a full standard action time.
is enough for Zhao Xu to cast the last spell.
But Zhao Xu squatted gently, just spreading out the device casually and scanning.
It took a few seconds before he closed the box and stood up again.
When Master Carl was working, he opened this box so that it would not arouse others' suspicion.
Otherwise, Master Carl will definitely make all kinds of secret notes before going to sleep, Zhao Xu may be exposed if he doesn't pay attention.
And through the potential point to simulate the "manufacturing portal" expertise, coupled with reading a lot of classics in this area, Zhao Xu looked at the contents of the box, there is no strange feeling at all.
Knowledge is the boosting force for all the actions of the mage.
Soon the time Zhao Xu borrowed from "Future" ended here, and the flow of time returned to normal.
The thrown telescope also steadily fell into the hands of the apprentice craftsman.
After was distracted, no one noticed what happened here just now.
Even if Zhao Xu is stronger, he can directly use a magic spell to "stop time" and watch the box for five full rounds.
At that time, even if everyone was staring at the box, it was useless.
, he turned his head and saw that there was nothing unusual about Master Carl, then instantly turned his head back and stared at his "communication device" immediately.
This winter wooden box still steadily stays in the position just now, and is closed tightly.
cannot be opened in an instant.
Mage Carl was relieved, but also a little embarrassed, feeling that he was too suspicious.
At this time, Zhao Xu said directly, "I'll see what's going on outside, and by the way, send a few more guards over to patrol."
Zhao Xu, who succeeded in the goal, left with a smile.
---------
"You got it?" Wang Ningwei asked curiously as she watched Zhao Xu reappear in the wooden board room.
"That's for sure."
Zhao Xu nodded, and handed over the "key content" he had just memorized~IndoMTL.com~Wang Ningwei also sighed at this time, "Master Karl is also too cautious."
" Every time I use that box, I use True Vision Gem. Although this 75,000 gold coin can only be used for 30 minutes a day, it is enough to cover." Zhao Xu agreed, "Otherwise , I can see a secret technique behind him."
"And he also uses ten minutes a day to cast a five-ring spell "Mage's Chamber", just to prevent detection of the spell."
"Even the treasure chest will not be seen by other craftsmen at all, otherwise I will use memory to read it early."
Regarding Master Carl's caution, Zhao Xu couldn't help holding his forehead and sigh.
The mage has enough means to learn the secret.
However, when the opponent is also a mage, he is easy to hit a wall.
Unless he is a stronger wizard.
"But it’s good, we didn’t use confusing spells to get information. Otherwise, we won’t be able to hide it when Master Carl returns, so we don’t have to worry about the other party being informed of the key change and taking time."
Zhao Xu said, looking at the copied note in his hand.
"Me said, Midsummer, have you thought about it?"
Suddenly Wang Ningwei said in a low voice, "Let’s pass through that portal first and come to the safest town of Starfall."
Wang Ningwei's voice was crisp, but it was cruel.
