Chapter 1612: The Position of the Haider Empire
The War Tower was proposed by the old Duke Kawei as a weapon to reverse the situation in the war against the Abyss. Once announced, the impact will be far-reaching. If it weren't for the battle against the abyss that the old man was in, the danger would be as if he were on the edge of a cliff, and Lin wouldn't want to get involved in this matter at all.
But when he decided to do it, the subsequent development seemed to come naturally, and many old studies were quickly compiled. Even the most troublesome energy pool problem was solved with the support of the Mithron nuclear design obtained from the floating island.
Although he has never actually built a war tower, in the system of magic tower knowledge, Lin can guarantee that his design will not be impossible unless he can imagine it.
Not to mention the actual experience of the Tower of the Great Sage. From the continuous improvement of the Dream Tower and Subdimensional Tower, Lin has tried almost all the ideas that can be tried and the taboos that are not allowed to be tried.
The most that other magicians can use their imagination is to set up some mazes and puzzles to test IQ in the tower. But when it comes to the defensive building of the 'Tower', Lin's current knowledge base can even despise the ancient heritage of the Floating Island.
The knowledge passed down in ancient times certainly has its own uniqueness, but except for the parts that have been deliberately hidden or cut off from inheritance, the rest is far inferior to modern knowledge. Especially the environments in which magic is used are different. Many ancient magics cannot be used in this era without modification.
The things on the floating island, except for the Myser energy core, can make someone's eyes light up. Other parts that are visible to the naked eye, including the arrangement of urban buildings on the island, the use of energy pools, and the inherent magic organized by many magic towers, are all so bad that a certain time traveler cannot bear to look directly at them.
With just a quick glance, Lin Guang was able to provide several optimization plans to the celestial beings on the floating island, and ensure that the energy efficiency of the floating island would increase by at least five to ten percentage points. However, in line with the principle of not communicating with others, someone remained silent.
Anyway, with the arrogance of the heavenly people, they will not easily believe the opinions of the surface magicians. Instead of having to explain and be questioned after saying something, just save yourself from such a thankless task.
Talk back to the present. If you want to deal with this abyss war, you have to carefully consider whether you should still announce the design of the war tower and push yourself to the forefront.
For Old Kaweigong, the War Tower is no longer a necessity as long as he takes action with all his strength. But considering that the magic circle city may be built in the future, it may be useful.
As long as it is used, or is used under the eyes of others, there is a need for confidentiality and the possibility of leakage.
Not to mention the cars, trucks, and airships sold, is there anyone who imitates or 'learns' from them? Even the Technology Guild, an organization that is self-supported and flaunts intellectual property rights, still faces the problem of leaking secrets and prohibits them endlessly.
And will the magic circle city be built? Regarding the answer to this question, Lin feels that there is no need to think too much, it will definitely be covered.
If the city attached to the Magic Tower is not built, where will the garrison of the Gwana Empire live? Where and what kind of land do the farmers who are responsible for providing food to the residents of the Magic Tower live?
Since the city was going to be built, and it was near the magic tower where he planned to live permanently, Lin couldn't let others build a house at will. It must be properly planned, and even the shape of the house will be strictly limited.
This is not a ritual to follow, but something that must be done in order to build a real magic circle city. If the city is allowed to grow wildly, no matter how good the planners are, no matter how beautiful the city landscape they design, they will cry in the end.
Even if not all the buildings in the city are built as magic towers, if they want to become part of the magic circle, they must have an energy core. Magic stone energy pools are very suitable for use in such places.
Besides, I don’t have many rare items that can be used to build energy pools, so I can’t build standard energy pools everywhere. The magic stone type is bound to be mounted. When it is used on a large scale, it is better not to use such a thing in the first place and still count on the residents to help conceal it.
Therefore, the magic stone energy pool will be exposed sooner or later. So how to make this knowledge public and reduce the negative impact depends on methods.
Thinking of this, Lin had a feeling in his heart. Specifically, it is to start from a small start and expose the basic type and expansion formula directly to the Magician Association. Anyway, don't touch the sensitive nerves of all the masters by directly claiming to replace the magic tower energy pool.
Maybe the name should be changed, to something like a magic stone enhanced storage device. Anyway, by not making people think of the energy pool of the magic tower at first, it should be possible to delay the onset of side effects.
Although there was no way to completely guess the old emperor's plan, as a time traveler who was accustomed to flipping tables, he still decided to go his own way. You won’t hide things that can and should be used, but you won’t act according to other people’s ideas either.
And there is no need to explain these words to the old emperor. The other party just said it in a casual tone, and he said it and would think about it, which was enough for this matter. The other party should also know that he is not someone who obeys instructions obediently.
Everything was settled. Seeing that the old emperor had no intention of speaking again, Lin said: "If there is nothing else to say, then I will send you back. ..."
"Your Excellency, the Great Magician." Arman Voso, the Emperor of Hydel who had been watching the show, interrupted someone and said, "Your Excellency has never asked the opinion of the Hydel Empire. Aren't our thoughts important?"
"Is it important?" Lin asked, maintaining a arrogant attitude.
Looking at the huge figure that was comparable to a god, he tilted his head and asked calmly. The emperor of Haider just wants to scold his mother!
Who suggested treating this guy like an ordinary human before setting off this time? After returning, those idiots were all stripped of their identities and exiled to the wilderness.
In any case, he could not just watch the magician reach an agreement with the emperor of Gwana while he remained silent.
This will make the Haider Empire look like a follower who obeys what others say and has no status at all. This is intolerable and cannot even be a precedent.
Besides, I was clearly at the negotiating table, but I behaved like an outsider and ended up ignoring what was decided at the negotiating table. Is this okay? Letting an opportunity slip through your fingers is not a good reason to stay out of it.
From previous conversations and performances, Arman Vosso could understand why the emperor of Gwana would personally negotiate and even make such a big concession. Not to mention that his own life now depends on the other party's thoughts, the direction of the entire war is also controlled by the hands of these superior beings in front of him.
It sounds incredible, but if you think about it seriously, it's not impossible. Assuming those rumors about magicians are all true...
A man who can be so valued by the emperor of an empire should still treat him as an ordinary magician who can come and go at a moment's notice.
Correct your mentality and pay attention to the people in front of you. In the war that is about to end, Emperor Arman Voso hopes to be a valuable player, rather than a dispensable third party. Everyone knows that the distribution of post-war benefits largely depends on how much effort was made during the war.
"Your Excellency, even if the ideas of the Haider Empire are not important. If you want to build two five-story towers and a city, the resources required are massive. I believe that the Gwana Empire can afford them all on its own. But there are some comparisons Special things still take time to raise. Don’t you think that with the help of the Haider Empire, things can be put together faster, and many things will be easier to promote.”
"When did I say I was going to build a five-story tower?" Lin retorted directly without giving any face.
Emperor Haider's face froze and he said: "Well, even if we don't consider building a magic tower based on the Dharma Saint level, the magic tower that needs to guard such a key position will not be a basic three-story tower."
There are currently three types of magic towers in Midi. Basically, there are three floors and one pool, then there are four floors and two pools that great magicians are eligible to occupy, and finally there are five floors and three pools that only magic saints can have. It's just the highest-level magic tower. Because the magic saint encountered difficulties and the actual number is not enough, there are some flexible entry rules to allow the great magician to take charge.
No one would deliberately build a four-story magic tower but only build an energy pool; the same goes for the five-story one. The reason why magicians adhere to such standards is actually to maintain the intimidation of high-level towers, so that people can see at a glance how threatening a certain magic tower is.
For every additional floor and energy pool, the cost will double. Therefore, many times, even if the magician who builds the tower is qualified, he may not necessarily build a magic tower that meets his qualifications to live in. There are many great magicians who build three-story towers.
It means that the Magic Tower is also allowed to be built and expanded, and it cannot be completed in one generation. Every tower owner will leave his own mark on the Magic Tower. Therefore, there is precedent for the initially three-story tower to have more floors added through the efforts of generations.
In ordinary people's perception, a five-story tower is more powerful than a four-story tower, and a four-story tower is greater than a three-story tower, so magicians of different levels are needed to preside over and guard it.
But such a statement is just fart in Lin's eyes! The reason is that the existing magic towers and related knowledge are not fully utilizing the energy pool.
Perhaps it is because people are worried that the energy pool is out of control, so they dare not try the limit of the energy pool's output. But such a reason is not acceptable to Lin, a time traveler. For a person who is good at mathematics, careful calculation can only be regarded as his duty.
In addition, in the future, it is possible for the consciousness born from the seeds of the World Tree to take over the Twin Towers of Gate. There is no need to be restrained by the energy pool at all, and it cannot meet the standards of ordinary magic towers, so it has to be relaxed. This allows the surplus amount of energy pool to be used again.
Lin is more confident that the standard magic tower with three floors and one pool is definitely more powerful than those five-story magic towers. Especially since this is a two-tower linkage design, it cannot be classified as a general magic tower.
So from the very beginning, the Twin Towers of Gates were designed to be as large as a three-story tower. Instead of building two five-story Fa Sheng Pagodas as the emperor of Haider thought. Moreover, the latter will involve the issue of recognition by the Magicians Association.
At the moment when he was planning to leave the association alone and act recklessly, although he could do all the things that might be scolded in one go with the mentality of not having to worry about the debt, Lin still planned to save trouble and there was no need to build a five-story tower just for the sake of face.
There are really so many resources, and improving the surrounding magic circle cities is better than anything else.
