Chapter 827: The Arcane World of Salvarden [Subscription Request]
In this way, the second arcane crystal fragment was obtained smoothly.
Most of the combat heroes in the territory can learn the glorious tradition of "scraping the ground" after following Zong Shen for a period of time.
No matter whether it is useful or not, take away everything that can be taken away. If it cannot be taken away, destroy it directly or hide it and take it away next time. Don't miss a single needle or thread.
After finishing, she dived towards the lake, preparing to return to the shore first and then contact Zong Shen.
Wearing light armor, Veresa's legs swung together like a fish tail, and bubbles quickly emerged from the lake with "slurping" bubbles.
"Hu... Hu..."
She took a few breaths of air to relieve the pressure in her lungs.
There is still a distance from the lake, and what she has to do next is to swim to the shore.
The two [Mirror Shadow Scouts] are still staying in place. Because they are both in the stealth state of [Shadow Mimicry], Veresa can't see their specific location.
She can only know that they are still nearby through the rippling water ripples.
However, after Vereesa emerged from the lake, the two guys took the initiative to cancel their stealth and swam over.
Wherever she swam, these guys followed.
Their black fish skin-like tights fit their bodies very well, and with the troll's slender limbs, their swimming speed was not much slower than that of the flexible Vereesa.
Vereesa looked back and ignored it, swimming towards the shore with concentration.
The lake water was swept away, leaving a white waterline.
After a few minutes, Vereesa finally returned to the shore. She had a ponytail and her hair was completely soaked in the lake water. The gaps in her armor were dripping with lake water, and soon left obvious water stains on the mudflats at her feet.
As for the two [Mirror Shadow Scouts], they were more like loyal guards, standing step by step behind Vereesa.
The soaked Vereesa was like a peach washed by water, making her look more attractive.
Because of the intense swimming and continuous underwater movement, Vereesa's face was red.
You should know that the temperature at the bottom of the lake is hovering around the freezing point, and the ice layer at the bottom is definitely below zero.
Even so, Vereesa's body temperature did not seem to be affected too much.
She stood on the mudflats on the lakeshore to rest for a while, and slowly walked towards the periphery. At the same time, she took out the [Communication Crystal]. When she was about to contact Zong Shen, a blue light flashed in front of her, and Zong Shen appeared after the void rippled.
He was wearing the [Blood Demon Helmet (Red)]. Vereesa could not see his specific expression.
But from the eyes in the gap, she felt that Zong Shen must be smiling now.
The two did not say much, and Vereesa just nodded.
Seeing her nod, Zong Shen knew that the mission had been successfully completed.
In fact, he arrived a few minutes earlier than Vereesa, and just waited nearby for a while until the five-minute cooling time of [Wandering] ended.
As for the ten [Mirror Shadow Demon Scouts] chasing him, they were still running one kilometer away.
However, when Zong Shen appeared, the two [Mirror Shadow Scouts] standing behind Wenresa found the target and entered stealth mode to pounce on Zong Shen.
Wenresa waved her hand to stop him, but Zong Shen didn't care at all.
He grabbed Wenresa's wrist directly, and the next moment he activated [Wandering] and disappeared on the spot.
The "dog walking" magic skill must be [Wandering]!
This wave of flash Zong Shen directly brought Wenresa to the limit of the maximum single movement distance of [Wandering] of ten kilometers.
He did not delay at all, and then activated [Wandering] again, and appeared directly near the southern line of the territory, which was covered by the [Red Gold Barrier] shield.
The troops assembled before had been waiting here for a long time.
This trip took more than twenty minutes, and there were still eight or nine minutes before the new time he and Licking Fire Carrig agreed.
The gray shadow clone still stood in the old place outside the shield.
When Zong Shen brought the wet Vereesa back to the territory, Tashiya, who stayed nearby, immediately came to meet them. Today, she did not wear a black robe, exposing her hideous [Deformed Bone Open Body].
After confirming that she had returned to the territory, Vereesa breathed a sigh of relief.
She flipped her hand and took out three things from the storage compartment.
They were the [Forgotten Leather Bag of the Evil God] containing the arcane crystal fragments, the [Frost Magic Gem] with half of the frost elemental magic left, and the broken metal plate.
Zong Shen glanced at them and handed the magic gem and [Forgotten Leather Bag of the Evil God] back to Vereesa.
"Keep these two things in your own storage compartment."
"The power of that arcane crystal fragment is enough to detonate and destroy any dark orc camp."
"Wait for my order, you may need to take action then."
"When the time comes, you can ride Flying Tiger or Little Blackie to fly directly over the target and drop it."
"You don't have to drop it at the center point to avoid the dark orcs having means of suppression. You can drop it somewhere in the camp."
"The arcane energy contained in this arcane crystal fragment will be released without suppression, attracting the surrounding elemental magic power, and eventually turning it into an elemental explosion effect!"
"You must evacuate within three minutes after the release. Of course, in special circumstances, please use your life to ensure that the fragments can be successfully detonated. Death here is not real death. As long as the territory is not destroyed, you can be resurrected later."
Zong Shen briefly explained the purpose of the arcane crystal fragment and arranged alternative plans in advance.
When necessary, he planned to let Vereesa release this fatal fragment.
After all, he already had an arcane crystal fragment on him.
There is no need to put all of them on him alone.
If he encounters some trouble and misses the opportunity, it will be inconvenient.
So he decided to leave the fragment on Vereesa first, and briefly tell her the specific power of the fragment and how to detonate it.
This thing is actually not complicated. You just need to expose it to the outside. After a few minutes of brewing, it will cause a riot of elemental magic in the surrounding area of 10 to 30 kilometers, which will then cause conflicts between different elements and create a shocking explosion.
Depending on the length of the brewing time, the range of the final explosion will also be different.
Anyway, the radius of 10 to 30 kilometers will not affect Zong Shen's territory.
The closest to his territory is the Dark Orc IV Raid Camp, which is the territory of the Black Water Army.
The straight-line distance between the two places is also 35 kilometers.
As for the three Dark Orc attack camps in other directions, they are even farther away from the territory.
Wenresa naturally understood the importance of the arcane crystal fragments. She nodded solemnly and put it away again.
There was still a piece of metal plate left, which aroused Zong Shen's interest.
"Is this thing also at the bottom of the lake?"
Zong Shen asked softly.
"This metal plate was found one or two meters next to the arcane crystal fragment."
"According to the current situation of this replica scene, this metal plate also exists in the lake in the Endless Continent, and it should come from the same alien world as the arcane crystal fragment."
Wenresa reported truthfully and also expressed her own judgment.
"I understand. Leave this metal plate here. Go and have a rest."
"Let Reese Ulysses pick you up. You can go back to the lord's fortress to take a shower and change clothes."
"Howie and Maril are in the command room. There will be no problem in the short term."
Zong Shen said this and suddenly gave Veresa a big hug.
"Thank you, you've worked hard."
This is the truth in his heart.
Although Veresa has always been very cold and always looks like she doesn't want to be approached by strangers, except for a few people in the territory, she has a clear sense of distance from everyone else.
But in fact, Veresa is also an old man in the territory.
She is the first hero-level talent in the territory.
From the dungeon challenge to now, she has made too many contributions to the territory.
Apart from those fancy and beautiful ideas, Veresa deserves his personal thanks.
People can't just consider Jill, especially as a lord.
You have to be open-minded and learn to go with the flow without sadness or joy to be a qualified lord.
After hugging Veresa, Zong Shen politely let go of her hand, stepped back two steps and grabbed the metal plate with one hand.
His intuition told him that this thing might not have any practical value, but it might contain clues about the original world of the arcane crystal fragment.
Veresa stood there with a complicated look in her eyes, and finally turned away without saying anything.
Tashia, who was standing behind Zong Shen, watched Veresa leave with an intriguing smile on her face.
Her eyebrows trembled, and she retracted her gaze when she knew that Veresa was far away.
At this time, Zong Shen had already held the metal plate and studied it.
He still had a few minutes to see the details of this thing.
The longest part of this metal plate is about 70 cm, and the width is the standard 50 cm.
It looks a bit like some kind of monument, but a large part of it is torn.
The thickness of the whole metal plate is about 15 cm, and the weight is not exaggerated. After all, even Veresa can pull it out with her bare hands.
There were some incomprehensible patterns engraved on the metal plate, and there were also abstract characters similar to the divine characters on Earth. Obviously, some information was recorded on it.
The inscriptions were either praising or cursing someone or something.
The specific details still needed the strategy module to come into play.
So he stared at the stone slab, concentrating on it while mobilizing the strategy module.
[Damaged Sarvarden Arcane Monument (Gray)]
[Quality: Gray]
[Effect: None (from the arcane world called Sarvarden Continent, forged by Baal metal tempered by telepathy, it records the origin and achievements of the original arcane crystal rune. Until it was detonated by the criminal, the original arcane crystal was always in a stable state and has been collected in the Sarvarden Dimensional Arcane Museum)]
[Baal metal has elemental toughness and can be immune to most elemental magic damage]
(One of the fragments of the inscription from another world, it praises the origin of the original arcane crystal and its significance to the Sarvarden world. The fragment you hold is part of the original arcane crystal
First of all, let me briefly introduce that the Sarvarden arcane world is a world that focuses on arcane energy and telepathy. The original arcane crystal is the first pure arcane energy crystal condensed in that world
Its appearance broke the shackles of talent and made all Salvadon people qualified to practice arcane energy. In Arcane Era 7294, when the Salvadon people created the eighth arcane crystal, the beginning of The arcane crystal was sent to the museum until the arcane crisis broke out, which involves a long story.
The status of telekinesis has always been inferior to that of arcana, but it also has a large number of fans in the continent of Sarvaden. Telekinesis magicians practice telekinesis, which is a strange power between shadow energy and telekinesis.
It was not until the end of the Arcane Era that the appearance of Maloran, the Mind-minded Maniac, changed the situation in the arcane world of Sarvaden.
He created a mental network to compete with the arcane network and cultivated a group of mental sinners.
The frenzied flames of war were ignited, and a war broke out between telepaths and arcane mages.
Several daring sinners of the mind worked hard to sneak into the Salvaden Arcane Museum under Maloran's plan. With the forbidden technique [Mind Resonance] developed by Maloran, those sinners sacrificed themselves. The cost of life activates the heart energy and creates [Mind Resonance] inside the Initiate Arcane Crystal. The powerful resonance destroys the relatively stable structure inside the Initiate Arcane Crystal. When the first crack appears, elemental riots are inevitable.
At the beginning, the arcane crystal was detonated within ten minutes. The violent elemental explosion blasted the giant city "Eternal Eden" where the Salvadon Arcane Museum is located into a desert, and even shook the dimensional barrier.
The power of a complete arcane crystal when detonated is unimaginable, and the city size of Eternal Eden is dozens of times larger than any giant city in the Endless Continent today.
After the dimensional barrier was exploded, part of the aftermath of the elemental explosion was swept into the void.
Also entering the void were those arcane crystal fragments that were extremely unstable after the collapse and some of the remains in the museum that were not destroyed by the explosion.
The timeline of that explosion occurred more than three hundred years ago in the Endless Continent. Two of the fragments fell into the Endless Continent together, and one of them detonated and turned into the lake.
Coincidentally, there was originally a frost demiplane under the lake, and there was an eighth-level [Frost Magic Gem] inside. The explosion destroyed that demiplane, and the arcane energy released by the remaining fragment attracted Got that [Frost Magic Gem]
The frost element froze it, allowing the fragment to remain in the end.
The super-level [Frost Magic Gem] in the Endless Continent has turned into a small area of permanently frozen frost over hundreds of years, so the large area of frozen at the bottom of the lake is irreversible.
The exclusive challenge area is a temporary world, and the rules are not perfect enough to support this area, so the lord system replaced it with a sixth-level [Frost Magic Gem] that has lost its magic power)
ps: The earliest chapter where arcane crystal fragments are mentioned is Chapter 120.
