Chapter 840 Underground Space (3 Chapters in 1)
Letting go of the high-grade rich ore of the magic stone first, Abel did not check the magic tower on the 18th floor first, but looked around.
There is still a large area around the magic tower here, and the ancestor didn't waste it. There are precious herbs growing everywhere on the ground that must be produced in a magic environment.
Some of these herbs were waiting to be sourced even when Abel bought them from the Elven Alchemist Guild, but they were being grown here.
It is estimated that the ancestors spent a lot of effort on this medicine field, because it takes a lot of energy to transform the medicine field to be able to plant these precious herbs with extremely high growth requirements on a large area. Without the corresponding inheritance, it is impossible to do it at all. arrive.
This large-scale planting method is equivalent to the inheritance of the wizard's rune card making, magic circle making, etc., and is the foundation for the wizard to live and work.
Don't think that the high income of the medicine field is very troublesome. First of all, the investment is high. The initial transformation of the medicine field requires a lot of magic materials.
The second is the issue of safety. During the planting process of this kind of medicine field, once it is seen by other wizards and knows its value, how to protect the medicine field is a big problem.
The last is the guarantee of the magic power environment. The magic power environment generally refers to the magic power overflowing from the magic tower, but Yaotian can't rely on that little magic power alone.
Therefore, the general medicine field needs a medium and large magic circle to provide a magic environment, and this requires a large amount of magic stones to activate the magic circle.
But all of this is not a problem here. This place is located in an underground space, and the lighting is provided by the lighting circle, which can control the light here at any time. Not to mention the safety here, no outsiders can enter at all.
The magic environment here is provided by the magic power independently exerted by the high-grade magic stone rich ore underground, which is almost an endless resource. As long as the high-grade magic power stone rich ore below is not mined, the magic power environment here will not disappear.
Although Abel didn't break open the 18-story magic tower in the middle, he already regarded everything here as his own.
"War commander spirit, can you invade the spirit of this magic tower?" Abel asked the war commander spirit again.
"Your Excellency, due to the activation of multiple defensive circles, the tower spirit cannot be connected and cannot be invaded!" The war commander replied.
Abel looked at the magic tower in front of him. From the ancestor's space bag, he did not find the identity card of the magic tower, which made it more difficult to enter the magic tower.
Now the war command spirit can't invade the tower spirit,
Then it can only be broken by force.
There are several ways to break through the defense of the magic tower. One is to continuously attack and consume the energy of the magic tower, then the defensive circle on the magic tower will naturally fail.
But it is almost impossible to consume the energy of the magic tower in front of him. Think about it, there is a high-grade rich ore of magic power stone under it. With the energy provided by this rich ore, no matter how you attack, you can't consume the energy.
In addition, Abel didn't want to destroy the magic tower too much, because he still wanted the magic tower to continue to exist here, and the environment here was better than that of the wizard circle outside Harry's Castle.
For the sake of confidentiality, once the magic tower is severely damaged, he cannot repair it at all.
"Troublesome!" Abel murmured to himself.
"Johnson, come out!" Then he tapped the space beast ring on his chest, and a black hole appeared in front of him.
Johnson strode out of the black hole and bowed to him.
"Johnson, be careful when you step on me. The herbs here are very precious. If you step on them, I will deduct your resources!" Abel pointed to the herbs on the ground.
Johnson looked at the countless medicinal herbs densely packed under his feet, and looked at his huge steel feet. The huge head tilted for a while, as if thinking about it, and then its body began to change, from a human shape to an eight-pointed foot An octospider on the ground.
With just this change, the artifact set on it was automatically retracted into the space bracelet.
The eight pointed feet reduced the landing area, allowing Johnson to carefully find a foothold.
"Johnson, try to see if you can pull out the magic tower!" Abel ignored Johnson's mischief, pointing at the magic tower and ordered.
Johnson walked to the magic tower. This huge magic tower has eighteen floors, which is two more floors than the original Cliff's magic tower. The body of the tower extends around and surrounds the magic tower.
Its eight legs separated again and became sixteen legs, and then the sixteen legs bent down, and the multi-faceted iron ball that wrapped the body of the magic tower tightened.
When the sixteen feet were lifted up vigorously, the multi-faceted iron ball wrapped around the body of the magic tower had been firmly fixed to the tower body. At this time, the multi-faceted iron ball in Johnson's body was constantly making harsh friction sounds. .
If all the multi-faceted iron balls in Johnson's body were made of the hardest refined iron, then even the multi-faceted iron balls would be broken under this kind of force.
It's a pity that although Johnson is powerful, his power is still weaker if he wants to uproot an eighteen-story magic tower.
Fortunately, the ancestor was dead, and the magic tower only had defensive capabilities, not offensive capabilities, so no matter how hard Johnson tried, he was not counterattacked by the magic tower.
This is also the method adopted by the magic tower that normally loses its owner, because once it attacks, it will consume a lot of energy, so the defense of the magic tower itself will be reduced, so when the owner dies, the tower spirit of the magic tower loses its owner. The only mission is to protect the magic tower, not to attack the enemy.
Abel also saw that Johnson alone could not pull the magic tower out of the ground. He took out 400 small war puppets from the 'Valaya's Ring'. These small war puppets were all made of perfect gems. As an energy source, the power it exerts is extremely strong.
Four hundred small war puppets surrounded the magic tower. Those close to them used their arms to directly act on Johnson's steel body, and the far ones used their bodies to act on their companions in front, directing their power to Johnson.
"Johnson, do it again!" Abel said after arranging four hundred small war puppets through the war command spirit.
Fortunately, it has a war command spirit, otherwise these four hundred small war puppets would not be able to make such complicated moves.
Hearing Abel's order, Johnson started exerting his strength again, and the four hundred small war puppets also made a hissing sound of huge energy activation, accompanied by the sound of steel rubbing.
Under the full force of four hundred small four-meter-high war puppets and the steel monster Johnson, the eighteen-story magic tower began to shake slightly, and then the shaking became bigger and bigger.
"Your Excellency, the tower spirit has been successfully connected and is invading!" Just as the magic tower was shaken by Johnson, the war command spirit also sent a message.
Just when the magic tower was shaken from side to side, a tiny gap appeared in its defense circle. Maybe this gap is narrow for any human or creature, but it is enough for the exploration of the war command spirit.
Among all the spirits known to Abel, the war command spirit is of a very high level. He did not believe that the level of the tower spirit in this magic tower would surpass the war command spirit, so he let Johnson and four hundred small war puppets continue Make an effort to keep that gap there.
"Your Excellency, the tower spirit has successfully invaded, the tower spirit has been controlled, and all the defensive circles have been opened!" In less than a minute, this eighteen-story magic tower was successfully invaded by the war command spirit, and the tower spirit was successfully invaded by the war commander. Spirit control.
A magic tower without multiple defensive circles is like an undefended city.
"Johnson, stop!" Abel yelled, looking at the wear and tear on Magic Tata's body with some distress.
Unlike just now, the magic tower that Taling has controlled is already his private property, and any damage to the magic tower is his own loss.
Johnson made a helpless gesture in a humane manner, and then asked Abel to enter the space beast ring. It cannot stay here for a while longer. It is not the four hundred small war puppets in front of it. With the precise control of the war command spirit, even when he was exerting all his strength, he did not touch a single herb.
Abel opened a hole, put Johnson into the Space Beast Ring, and then put 400 small war puppets into the 'Varaya's Ring'.
Ever since he had the space artifact 'Valaya's Ring', he has carried a large number of war machines with him to deal with any accidents that may arise at any time.
If it weren't for the fact that the physical attacks of these small war puppets did little damage to the hell creatures in the dark world, and their materials couldn't resist the erosion of hell breath, he would have wanted to bring the small war puppets to the dark world to fight.
The magic tower was under the control of the war command spirit, the gate on the first floor was opened, and Abel walked into the top magic tower he had ever seen.
As soon as he entered the magic tower, he could feel the astonishing concentration of magic power. The concentration of magic power here was only a little lower than that in the dark world, but it was the highest in any place he had seen in the Holy Continent, including the magic tower.
You must know that there is no large-scale magic-gathering array here, but the countless small magic-gathering arrays on the magic tower. It is estimated that the ancestor did not arrange a large-scale magic-gathering array because of the medicinal herbs outside. A large magic gathering array is not unaffordable.
On the first floor of the magic tower, you can see a huge teleportation circle, the 'large teleportation circle'. Abel was taken aback. It's normal for him to get the formation.
Thinking about how useful this 'large teleportation circle' is to Abel, the palace can be directly connected to Harry's Castle and other teleportation circles, instead of teleporting through multiple jumps.
He stepped forward to connect to the large teleportation circle with mental power, and found that this teleportation circle had no information of its own, that is to say, it was a black household in the wizard's transmission system, and the wizard's guild could not directly requisition it. Can't even find it.
Although this will bring trouble, but there are too many benefits. The biggest advantage is that teleportation through this teleportation circle will not have any records in the Wizards Guild.
The mental power connected the large teleportation circle with his own large teleportation circle in the magic tower outside Harry's Castle, then withdrew the mental power and looked to the other side of the floor.
On the ground, fifty wooden boxes made of oak are neatly stacked on the ground, and the inlaid strips decorated on the wooden boxes are all made of gold, one can imagine the preciousness of the items inside.
But after opening it, Abel was disappointed. It was full of mid-level magic stones, each of which was stored separately, and the number exceeded most people's imagination.
But these mid-level magic stones really have no effect on him, he has as many magic stones as he wants.
However, he thought that after the palace treasury was opened, although the wealth in it was astonishing, the resources of wizards in it did not match the strength of the empire. It turned out that most of the resources of wizards were stored here.
Come to think of it, is there a safer place than here?
Even if Abel already had the empire in his hands, it took several months and half a year before he discovered this place.
"Let's save these intermediate magic stones as resources for the wizards of the empire to distribute!" He looked at the fifty boxes of intermediate magic stones and decided their role.
There are only so many items on the first floor. There are no public reception rooms or restaurants in ordinary magic towers. This place is more practical.
Walking on the wooden stairs covered with patterns, he walked up to the second floor of the magic tower. It can be seen that the function of this magic tower is mainly to store wizard materials and cultivation, so small magic circles can be seen everywhere in the magic tower. pattern.
Whether it's the ground in the magic tower or above the stairs, every inch of space is drawn with a magic circle.
It can be seen that the original owner, Patriarch, was a cultivator who demanded extreme magic power.
Above the second floor, there are also a large number of wizard supplies, including various wizard potions, magic stones, and various precious materials, making Abel seem to see a super-large wizard warehouse.
All the way to the 16th floor, there is a difference. The 16th floor is a library, and the entire floor area here is filled with beautiful bookshelves.
On the bookshelf, the books in the bookshelf are carefully classified.
Abel saw the wizard's fire, ice, and lightning spell classification books. The number of these three books is the largest, accounting for almost one-third of the entire library.
And then he saw the classification of druids. Although there were not many books in it, only a dozen or so, the training method of druids was the top secret of the elves, and there were more than a dozen related books here.
Abel himself has practiced the druid profession. He checked a dozen books and found that almost the entire druid training system is here, but the druid training requires a special seed to be enlightened. The introduction of the books here No amount of it is of any use.
On the side, Abel saw the classification of knights again. There are thousands of various knight secret skills here. Needless to say, the source of them is probably obtained by stealing from various knight families for so many years.
However, the secret skills of the knights here are very useful to the empire. Anyway, its source can be pushed to the former royal family. Anyone who has doubts about the secret skills should go to them to discuss it!
Next, Abel also discovered books about various inheritances of wizards, such as drawing spell patterns, making rune cards, making magic circles, and some related to alchemy, etc., including almost everything he knew. All categories of wizard inheritance, as long as mastering any one of them, a wizard can obtain the craft to survive in the wizard world.
An empire that has existed for thousands of years, its collection strength is extremely terrifying, reflected in these books, it is almost all-encompassing, all-encompassing.
In the corner of the library, Abel found thousands of books stored, and there were no marks on the shelves, but when he saw the title of the book, he couldn't help being stunned.
These thousands of books are all related to the profession of sacrifice. In the past, Abel killed countless priests but did not get a full set of ritual spell patterns. There is actually a complete set here, with a lot of explanations and explanations attached.
Of course, among the thousands of books, the sacrificial spell book is only a small part, and the rest are research notes of the sacrificial priest.
What is the study of orc sacrifice?
Abel can almost imagine that corpses, torture, screams, howls, etc., and the "skeleton resurrection" of orc sacrifices are the results of this research.
He put the spell book that recorded the full set of orc sacrifice spells into the 'Varaya's Ring', and left this floor full of doubts.
When he walked up to the seventeenth floor, Abel was stunned by the image in front of him. The seventeenth floor of the magic tower was like hell. Various human body parts were displayed in the huge crystal bottle. The smell of herbs and rancidity hits the face.
After walking past the crystal bottle containing internal organs and human body tissues, he saw an alchemy table, or an operating table.
The rancid smell came from the operating table. It may be because the ancestor was researching when he left. Bursts of stench.
Human experiments are being done here!
Abel had a creepy feeling. An eighteenth-level senior wizard enshrined by the empire was doing human experiments in his magic tower that were banned by the Wizards Guild.
Perhaps it is not surprising that this kind of thing happened in the orc empire, but this is the human world.
Abel found a set of magic robes thrown on the ground beside the operating table, and his mental power swept over the human corpse. Judging from the various characteristics on the corpse, the corpse was a wizard.
The ancestor is actually using the corpse of a wizard for experiments, what is he going to do?
Abel's heart was full of doubts. With the resources of the ancestor, why would he do this?
After entering this magic tower, although Abel didn't know the ancestor before, but now he has a general idea of what kind of wizard this ancestor is.
You must know that in this kind of magic tower that goes deep underground, it is almost impossible to communicate with the outside world. Even wizards who can bear loneliness, most of them cannot bear it.
And the ancestor would not do useless things, so what did he want to get from studying the corpse of the wizard, but it is a pity that the ancestor is already dead!
Just when Abel was sighing, he found a parchment book on the shelf beside the operating table.
Going forward to get the parchment, he saw a wizard's experiment. This experiment has been going on for hundreds of years, and its ultimate goal is immortality.
Through the research results obtained by orc sacrifices, and then continue to in-depth research, a substitute for a human body can be obtained, allowing wizards to achieve another form of immortality.
"Madman!" Abel wanted to burn the parchment directly, but stopped. Although this research notebook is full of blood, it is a first-hand study of the wizard's body from the perspective of body structure. Most of it knowledge that he had never heard of.
After thinking about it, he still put this research note into the 'Varaya's Ring', and threw a fireball on the corpse of the wizard on the operating table to clean up the corpse.
Abel now finally understood why so many books were collected on the 16th floor, especially the books about orc sacrifices. It turned out that they were all for the experiments here. Maybe give the ancestor some more time. It is really possible to research something.
But at least Abel has no interest in these studies in a short period of time, because he is still very young and has enough time to squander. If he is the same age as the ancestor now, maybe he will take over the research of the ancestor ,continue.
After leaving the seventeenth floor and walking to the eighteenth floor, Abel saw the luxurious decoration. When he entered here, there were the most exquisite paintings on the walls, woolen carpets on the floor, and the furniture here was also from the palace. style.
It can be said that this is the only place in the entire magic tower that has a breath of life. The small water glasses on the table, as large as the tables and chairs here, are all the best of the best.
Abel guessed that the patriarch probably arranged this floor in a secular style to prevent himself from going crazy.
And Abel could also see that the ancestor didn't have wizard apprentices here to help him at all, and everything here was operated by him alone.
The lonely ancestor finally had some hobbies, and these mundane decorations should be his hobbies.
Abel found Taling and the control center of the entire magic tower in the side room.
Due to the death of its master and the intrusion of the war command spirit, Taling lost its leading ability, and he easily recognized the master successfully.
At the moment when the master was recognized successfully, the tower spirit glowed all over, and then it said as if waking up from sleep: "Master, the tower spirit is at your service!"
Abel was quickly replacing the mid-level magic stones in the magic tower's energy slots with top-level magic stones, and soon he replaced all the energy slots with top-level magic stones. This is his habit, and it's perfect anyway. The precious gems can only be used by themselves, and the best ones are used wherever they can be used.
"Taling, open all the magic circles!" Abel ordered.
"Yes, master!" After Ta Ling replied, only the sound of traffic transmission was heard, and then the entire magic tower was resurrected again.
Yes, this is a resurrection. When the original owner dies, if the magic tower has no owner, it will become a tomb-like existence, burying all the wealth of the original owner.
And only after the magic tower has a new owner, all the magic circles in the magic tower will be opened. At this time, the whole magic tower is filled with the light of various magic circles, and the originally dark lighting circles have also changed. Brighten up.
Immediately afterwards, Abel felt that the magic tower had become a part of his body. He could clearly perceive every magic circle in the magic tower, and he could clearly perceive the small number of magic circle patterns that were destroyed by Johnson. .
At this moment, his perception suddenly magnified countless times, and the scenery of the upper garden of the underground space appeared in front of his eyes, followed by the entire palace, and finally expanded to the entire Denan City.
"This is the big city defense formation!" Abel couldn't help murmuring to himself.
What is in front of you is the protective formation, which is the protective formation of the entire Dunan City. When Abel attacked Dunan City, this protective formation was not activated, and members of the royal family had never heard of the defensive formation in Dunan City. The presence.
It turns out that the guardian formation is controlled by the ancestor himself, and if the ancestor is not there, it will be controlled by the tower spirit, but Abel killed the ancestor, and the magic tower was closed, which made When attacking Denan City, the guardian array was not activated.
While perceiving the entire Dunan City, Abel felt a little emotional, because he found that the guardian formation in Dunan City might be just an ordinary guardian formation, with defense and some attack capabilities, but with the addition of the 18-story magic tower underground, Under the circumstances, if there is a high-level wizard stationed here, basically any high-level wizard of the same level can be eliminated at a fixed point.
Think about it, if a hostile wizard walks into Dunan City, is locked by the guardian array, and then uses the energy of the entire guardian array to suppress it, it is completely possible for this wizard to lose the ability of 'teleportation' in a short period of time.
At that time, the guardian wizard can strengthen his magic attack power through the magic tower, and then use the guardian array to cast this magic power attack power on the suppressed.
"Perfect guardian system!" Abel exclaimed.
Although when he learned of the existence of the underground space, he already knew that this place should be the final hole card of the Kingdom of St. Ellis, but he never thought that this hole card would be so powerful. It can not only attack anyone in the city, but also Monitor any house that is not defended by a magic circle.
The wizard who controls here can perfectly see everything in Denan City, and Abel guesses maliciously whether it is because of this that the ancestor built this guardian array.
"Taling, how do you take care of the herbs in this underground space?" Abel couldn't help asking, thinking of the herbs planted outside the magic tower.
You must know that he doesn't want to let this place remain in a situation where there are no wizard apprentices. The ancestor will completely rely on himself to take care of so many medicinal herbs, but so many medicinal fields alone are enough for him to have no time to practice.
"Master, do you give me permission to use the puppet?" Taring asked.
"Taling, I give you permission to use the puppet!" Abel replied.
As he gave power to Ta Ling, a mechanical sound came from a side cabinet in the control room, and then the cabinet door was opened, and two simple humanoid puppets came out of the cabinet.
Compared with Abel's small war puppet, this humanoid puppet can be said to be extremely simple, with only simple mechanical functions, and the control is completely controlled by the tower spirit. Without the control of the tower spirit, it can't even stand up.
It can be said that this humanoid puppet is the clone of Ta Ling, which can allow Ta Ling to perform actual operations.
The two human puppets turned into white light and disappeared in the magic tower, then appeared outside the magic tower, and then began to get busy in the medicine field.
Fortunately, the medicinal herbs in these medicinal fields have a long growth cycle. If they have not been taken care of in the past few months, the impact on the medicinal fields is not too big, as long as they are taken care of.
Abel knew that this medicine field was probably an important resource for the ancestors of the original owner here. He had to know that some precious herbs could be exchanged directly with the Alchemist Guild for some medicines that could not be purchased.
For Abel, the medicinal herbs here will eventually become the raw materials for himself. In terms of alchemy level, no one in the Holy Continent can surpass him.
At the same time, he also knew that the value of this magic tower would increase again, because this tower spirit turned out to be a tower spirit that had been trained to produce medicinal herbs independently.
The humanoid puppets used by this kind of tower spirit are so shabby, which makes Abel, who pursues perfection, a little unbearable. He took out four small war puppets from the "Valaya's Ring" and put them in the control room, and handed over the authority to Gave it to Tarling.
At the same time, ten lightning spirals are placed on the eighteenth floor of the magic tower, so that even if there are no powerful senior wizards stationed, this magic tower can still stimulate the elemental attack power that is comparable to that of senior wizards.
At that time, select a few credible wizards to garrison here, and the entire Dunan City will become the attack range of these ten lightning spirals.
Back at the entrance, Butler Burbage was still waiting there.
"Steward Burbage, send an order. No one is allowed to mention it at any time. This is the top secret place of the empire!" Abel said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Butler Burbage didn't ask any more questions, but bowed in response.
"No one should come in here, anyone who enters here will be attacked!" Abel said, pointing to the underground living area where the dead were originally.
After speaking, he took out five lightning spirals and placed them at the entrance, then put his hand on Butler Burbage, and brought him out of the underground building.
Of course, Butler Burbage also saw the five lightning spirals, whose power had been known by the entire Holy Continent during the military parade. He also knew what Abel said that no one should be allowed to enter. closed.
The five lightning spirals of Abelius are prepared for those who may know the entrance. Who knows if anyone in the empire knows this entrance, or is hostile to the current empire, or for the underground wealth, But as long as there are five lightning spirals, those who can enter will not come out alive.
