Chapter 13 Special Compensation

"Ahem...this thing...ahem...why is there still fire behind it?" Erlang Shen asked Taibai Jinxing in embarrassment.

Taibai Jinxing, who had turned into a black briquette, coughed and said aggrievedly: "Ahem...I...cough...I don't know!...Ahem...otherwise you think I would...cough cough... …Stand here and wait for it to burn?”

I quickly said: "Anyway, I know this thing. It is very similar to a weapon I have there. I think the performance should be pretty good. I want it. But you... ahem... can you pair it with a few? What kind of Haotian Mirror is this? This...ahem...it seems like it can't be used to see the target's position!"

"Okay, no problem, let's go back first and talk about it first!" Taibai Jinxing coughed and opened the portal.

After returning to the Qiankun Tower, he readily pulled out the Four-sided Vast Sky Mirror for me, saying that it can see anywhere in the world and is not affected by weather or buildings. However, if someone sets up a defensive barrier or inside a private residence, There are also buildings with magical defenses, so you can't see what's inside. According to Taibaijinxing, at least this mirror is more convenient than the original observer in the Tower of Babel. That observer can only look down from above, making it difficult to identify faces, and clouds and roofs can block the view. Although this one will also be blocked, it is at least better than the original one.

Four sets of divine arrows combined with four Haotian mirrors were recorded on the roster and then carried into the space door I opened at the beginning. Next, we will discuss the issue of compensation for other items.

In fact, the two things we just solved have basically solved the problem. Essinger also has some special buildings that are allowed to be built by the system, such as: Temple University, Monument of Heroes, Hyperspace Connector, War Machine Research Institute, and Magic Crystal Power. Research institute, advanced technology dock, urban power pipeline, large power base, blood pool, advanced power core, magic anti-gravity device, transnational teleportation array, colorful dream pool, and Warcraft lair.

These buildings are what the system allows us to build. We didn't get it back, so rebuilding it was simple. Take the Magic Crystal Power Research Institute as an example. This building is something that the system allows us to build. We all have the blueprints and other things, and we can build it at any time as long as we have the materials and manpower. There is no uniqueness to this kind of thing. It can be rebuilt immediately as long as it is destroyed at any time. All Heavenly Court has to do is provide special materials and ask people to help build it. Because it was simple, we had no disagreements, and everyone settled on it quickly. Heaven will quickly provide materials and then send people to help us build.

After taking care of these things there isn't much left. There are still 6 questions left, namely the Gate of Truth, the Four Dragon Statues, the Statue of the Goddess of Life, the Spirit Gathering Tower, the Lightning Cannon, and the Illusion Realm.

The Gate of Truth was snatched back from Japan. This time the city was destroyed and it was unfortunately killed. The gate was broken into several pieces when it was discovered, and it was impossible to repair it. Although this thing can be built in any city that meets the requirements, Essinger is not a city within the requirements. When upgrading the city, you can indeed get the Gate of Truth by choosing the Palace of Knowledge, but the evolution direction of Isengard is the War Fortress. I can't build the Gate of Truth myself. If I want to get it again, I have to go to another city to grab one.

The four giant dragon hanging statues are even more terrible. These things are originally ancient relics of the Dragon Clan. Even the Dragon Clan themselves don't know how to make them, let alone us. These four hanging statues are not only powerful but also unique. This is so good that it cannot be copied at all.

I also snatched back the statue of the goddess of life. The other party got the statue in a large-scale mission. Now it seems that it is the only 'sexual' item that cannot be copied at all.

The Spirit Gathering Tower is not the only item. And there are still people who can rebuild it, but the construction technology is in the hands of the Dark Temple, so we don’t have to count on it.

The thunder cannon belongs to the Dragon Clan, so you can get another one from them, but you may need to exchange conditions. It was originally given to us to help us defend the city, but now I ask them for no reason but must have conditions.

Illusion is even more terrible. This can be said to be an attribute. Essinger belongs to the Magic City, and it is surrounded by illusions to protect it. People outside cannot see the situation inside, and they can only see Essinger unless they travel through the fantasy area. Now that the city is destroyed, the illusion is naturally gone. We rebuild the city but cannot rebuild the illusion. How to compensate for this is also a big problem.

I told Taibai Jinxing everything about the situation. After hearing this, he discussed it with Erlang Shen and said, "As for the Gate of Truth, we seem to have similar treasures in the fairy world, but the level is higher than the thing you mentioned." He seemed to He said in embarrassment: "That treasure is not like the door you mentioned that has a big deviation after execution. It can basically solve most problems, but its task difficulty is proportional to the degree of completion. The more complex your requirements are. . The more difficult its task will be. It is estimated that it will be difficult for you to control it. I don’t know if you are willing to have such a thing."

"Yes, why don't you want it?" It's a good thing if you have a high level. If the task is difficult, simply increase the strength of the task force.

Taibai Jinxing said: "If that's the case, I'll give it to you right now."

Several paper figures quickly moved down a strange item. This is something like an altar, but the area is not very large. The altar is more than two meters high, with stairs on all sides. There is a square platform with a side length of more than 7 meters on the top, and a huge Tai Chi Bagua diagram is painted on the platform.

Taibai Jinxing explained: "This is the altar of wishful thinking. As long as you stand on it and make a wish, it will send you to the task location and give you a scroll with the task written on it. When you complete the task, you will automatically return to the altar. If you want more Bring some people to do the task, and ask everyone to stand on the altar together when making a wish. Anyway, anyone standing on the altar at that time will be sent there. You can rest during the task (meaning the player is offline), but once you die, you will automatically Return to this altar and resurrect. You cannot leave the mission unless you die before the end of the mission. Each time you die, you will lose level 10 of Taoism, and you will not lose items and equipment. There is no limit to the number of times you can use the altar. As long as you have enough people, you can go up as many as you want in a day. It doesn’t matter if there are tens of thousands of teams. But I suggest you not to do that. The mission of this altar is very difficult. Unless your wish request is very simple, otherwise you will either have extraordinary skills to enter or die."

"Okay, I want this, use it to replace my Gate of Truth." Hehe, although Taibaijinxing emphasized that the task is difficult, this thing can fully implement the requirements. Even if we wish to sink the Japanese island, as long as we can complete the task. It will also come true. Of course, the kind of mission that requires corresponding tasks will probably require all Chinese people to work together to have any hope.

I asked Lucky to move this big guy into the space door. Thanks to the large space inside the Qiankun Tower, otherwise it would be difficult to handle such a big thing!

After the compensation for the Gate of Truth is successfully resolved, the issue of the four dragon hanging statues comes. After listening to my description, Taibai Jinxing rummaged through the record book for a while. After a long time, he finally found a suitable compensation plan.

He said carefully: "Each of the four divine beasts has a tower, collectively called the Four Realm Towers. These four towers are things left over from ancient times. Their origins are unknown, but they are of great use."

"And where are these towers?"

"Each of the four divine beasts has one beside them. What they collect are towers with the same name as themselves. The Suzaku Realm Tower of Suzaku is at my place, and the Azure Dragon Realm Tower, White Tiger Realm Tower, and Xuanwu Realm Tower are at their own places. If I can get it if you want it.”

"What is the use of this tower?"

"The functions of the four towers are different. The effect of the Suzaku Tower is crazy, covering a range of 0 miles. When the enemy releases a spell, there is a 10% chance that the release will fail, and there is a 10% chance that it will become another spell he knows. If this spell has If the target is a directed spell, there is a 10% chance that the spell will fall on someone outside the target or deviate from the specified direction at a certain angle. In short, it is unlikely to hit the target according to the wish. If it is an archer or the like For long-range strikes, the hit rate will be reduced by 25% if affected by chaos. For close physical strikes, there is a 30% chance of being unable to control the intensity if affected by chaos. Either the force is too strong and knocks oneself over, or the force is too little. Doesn't work. The attack power of all allies affected by Frenzy increases by 10%.

The effect of the Blue Dragon Tower is divine power. Coverage: 0 miles. The morale of the hostile force decreases, resulting in a decrease in attack power and attack speed. The degree of decrease fluctuates between 1% and 10%. At the same time, all creatures except adventurers (players) may have a 2% chance of escaping. The morale of your own members is high, and the attack speed and combat effectiveness are increased due to the increased morale. However, this increase is unstable and fluctuates between 1% and 10%. During battle, the wound healing speed of friendly personnel is increased by 10%, and the pain perception is reduced by 80%.

The effect of White Tiger Tower is fighting spirit. The range covers 0 miles. This causes all enemy creatures except adventurers to have a 10% chance of disobeying their master's commands during battle, and a 1% chance of rebelling and automatically attacking their own people until they leave the range of effect or die. Our own personnel have a strong will and automatically resist all negative effects of magic. Automatically stabilize the mental state of all friendly personnel within range, resisting all mental interference and manipulation spells. All friendly personnel have the final skill Jade Shatter when within the range of the effect. When you die, you can designate a target whose level is not higher than yours to be buried with you.

The effect of Xuanwu Tower is belief, with a range of 0 miles. The effect only applies to oneself. The physical and magical defense of all friendly personnel is increased by 15%. And 5% speeds up life recovery. The ultimate magic spell that can be used for everyone within the range - strong telepathy. The effect of this spell is that when a creature's life is exhausted, it will not die, and its health will be negative when it is hit again. The creature will not die until the negative land value exceeds % of the original health, which is basically equivalent to increasing the maximum health by %.

The other four statues can all summon the clones of the four divine beasts to participate in the battle, but the clones only have 1% of the power of the original body, which is about the same as the giant dragon called Red Flame over there. By the way, this way of participating in the battle can only be used in defensive battles, not in attacks. "

"What about the guardian beasts?" I asked: "The players in our guild have two kinds of guardian beasts for sale, just because of the dragon statue, but these towers don't have this attribute!"

Taibai Jinxing said: "Then has your guardian beast disappeared?"

I shook my head. Although the reason for having three guardians was because of the four giant dragon statues and system rewards, our guardian beasts did not disappear when the statues and the city fell apart. The phoenix dragon, steel claws, and spears were still guarding us.

"What do you mean by the 'nature' of that statue of yours?"

"The attributes are guaranteed by the friendship of the dragon clan, so that the city can have two city guardian beasts. One of our three guardian beasts now is due to this attribute."

Taibaijinxing said: "The attributes say it is guaranteed by the friendship of the giant dragon. Although the statue is gone, your friendship has not been destroyed. This is why the guardianship has not disappeared."

"But that's because of the Dragon Clan's guarantee. It's true that the predecessor Suzaku destroyed the statue. This statue should be compensated for its ability."

Taibaijinxing wants to bargain with me. "The properties of those four towers are already much better than those of your statues. You are not at a loss. Is it too much to ask us to compensate you for this?"

Of course I couldn't let go easily, so I started a heated debate with Taibai Jinxing. After a lot of talking and arguing between us, Taibaijinxing finally succumbed to my super debating ability and Erlangshen's rebellious behavior. In the end, Taibaijinxing reluctantly helped me find a treasure with a guardian beast.

After looking through it for a long time, Taibaijinxing said, "I really can't find anything that adds protection. Why don't you think about replacing it with something else?"

"What do you want to change?"

"Like some gadgets or other treasures?"

"But you have so many things here. How many months does it take for me to go through them all?"

"Then let me think about it again!" Taibai Jinxing began to flip through his record book again. Suddenly he said again: "By the way, I thought of a way."

"What can we do?"

"We have a very large-scale spell called Point of War. This spell can be permanently stabilized through a magic weapon. Every time you activate it, all free personnel in the city will become soldiers, and they will automatically restore after the battle. , the casualties will also be resurrected, without affecting the safety of city residents."

"What level is the soldier created by this military skill? And what type of soldier is it?"

"Those created by the military skills can be counted as militia. The level is not necessarily certain. It depends on the strength of the free personnel in your city. The minimum level is 100 and the maximum level is no more than 300. Your city seems to be full of undead, right? The undead are considered good militiamen, and their average level should be about the same as level 0."

Add four to five million level 0 militia to Essinger? This should be considered a considerable strength, right? But I still want to maximize my profits.

"My previous guardian beast was a guild-wide one. It didn't just protect Isinger. If you only gave Isinger stability, I would still suffer!"

Taibaijinxing thought for a while and said: "That's it. I'll give the book recording this spell to your people, and then you can deploy this spell in every city. Is this okay?"

"Well, that's okay."

Taibai Jinxing brought a book on military skills and handed it to me: "This is it. But remember, you are not allowed to spread the word. Only cities in your guild can set it up. If this thing appears in other cities, Heaven will immediately send troops to conquer you. ."

"Then what if you leaked it yourself?"

"You still have to bear the responsibility."

"Halo! Are you robbers?"

Taibai Jinxing said: "Because nothing is lost in heaven, and if it really leaks from us, we will know it. I won't trouble you. You just need to be careful not to lose things among yourself."

"That's pretty much it!"

"The four towers just now have many attributes, including the function of your third item. I think we don't have to pay for it?" Taibaijinxing looked at me and waited for my answer.

In fact, I really have no reason to ask them to compensate for this statue of the Goddess of Life. The four towers have fully accommodated these abilities and there is no need for additional calculations. In fact, I really want them to compensate me now. I guess Taibaijinxing won’t give it to me either. It may seem like I'm messing around with things to blackmail Heaven, but I'm actually very measured. Blackmail is also a science, and you need to grasp the other party's bottom line to obtain the maximum benefit. Take it too far and you'll get nowhere. If you don't do it ruthlessly enough, you won't get the ultimate benefit, so you must control this balance. Now that's the limit. If you add more, it will explode.

I smiled and answered Taibai Jinxing: "Forget it about the statue of the Goddess of Life. Anyway, the things in front are pretty good. There is no need to pay for this."

Taibai Jinxing smiled and said: "Then let's talk about the next item."

I immediately said: "You can't let me suffer too much with this item. The Juling Tower is Essinger's iconic building, almost our spiritual symbol. Now that the tower has collapsed, you must give me a favor." Satisfactory answer, right?" The concession you just made on the statue of the Goddess of Life means that you can now get emotional bonus points, so it doesn't matter if the compensation for this gathering tower can be more severe.

"What is the purpose of your tower?" Taibai Jinxing asked.

"The Soul Gathering Tower can gather the souls of nearby creatures killed in battle to replenish the power of the city, and automatically increase the attack power of the Eye of Hell. Moreover, this tower is also the source of the dark fog above our city. Essinger used to be a magic city, This tower is a very important part. The Eye of Hell on it is our main reconnaissance and self-defense weapon. Moreover, our city used to have a lot of dark attributes, and all enemies who entered would be eroded by the darkness of the undead. These are the functions of our Spirit Gathering Tower."

“There are so many functions!”

Erlang Shen also helped me and said: "Actually, I have heard of this tower before. Essinger used to be a relatively famous city, and the Soul Gathering Tower also has the title of man-made artifact, which is considered a rare project."

With Erlangshen's words, Taibaijinxing had to pay attention. He had never been to Essinger before and naturally he didn't know what Juling Pagoda looked like. After hearing Erlangshen's words, he naturally understood that it was something extraordinary. Naturally, I didn’t dare to neglect this time.

After looking through the information for a long time, he actually came over and said: "This thing is really tricky. Do you think we can consider the following things first?"

I just want things, time is not a problem, as long as I can get good things in the end. There is no need to be serious with him now. "Then let's look at the back first."

"Okay." Taibai Jinxing said directly: "I've seen your thunder cannon, but it doesn't seem to be the only item. The dragon clan can make it. So my idea is, can you go to the giant dragon clan? Want another one?"

I immediately said: "They gave it to me because I had an interest in it. Now if I ask for it for no reason, they will definitely not give it to me. It's like if I ask you for Juling Pagoda now, of course you have to compensate me, but in the future I will If I come to you every now and then to ask for my land, you will definitely not abandon me."

Taibai Jinxing said: "I heard that the dragon clan likes shiny things very much. How about we exchange them for them?"

"You are right. Dragons like gold and all shiny things. But they are very big, so they require a lot of things. If you want to bribe them, you will probably need a lot of treasure!"

"You don't have to worry about this. As long as they are willing to sell it, we will be responsible for the treasure in heaven."

"This is what you said, don't deny it in the future."

"Heaven will not destroy its credibility for some earthly things."

"That's good." I nodded. "What should I do if the remaining one is my urban illusion? Essinger used to be protected by the illusion, but now it has been destroyed. What do you think we should do?" I am actually more worried about this. Essinger's illusion actually prevented us from a lot of trouble, and the enemy's several attacks on Essinger were basically affected by the illusion. It can be said that this illusion is Essinger's first city wall.

Taibai Jinxing laughed. "Actually, I don't think this illusion is very clever."

"Why?" Taibai Jinxing suddenly threw out such a theory, which confused me.

"Your city can fly now, right?"

This little old man is quite well informed. "My city can fly, so what?"

"This is very serious." Taibaijinxing analyzed to me: "Your original illusion barrier is a static protection. Once your city flies, it is not sure whether it can follow the movement. Even if it can really follow If it moves, this large-scale illusion must not be completely integrated with the surrounding things. It is normal for it to be discovered."

"What do you think?"

"What I mean is that no matter how real the illusion is, it may be seen through, so it's better to use a blindfold."

"A blind trick? What do you want to use?"

"Qinglong has an artifact called the Shenwu Wind Chimes. There are 5 strings of wind chimes in total. As long as four of the strings of wind chimes are hung up, the quadrilateral they form and a large area around it will be shrouded in mist. The person who masters the wind chimes can change the type of fog through special formulas. You can turn the fog into a large white fog, and then quietly approach the target on the ground or sea, or you can turn the fog into a Large, dense black clouds pretend to be dark clouds and fly over people's heads. If necessary, you can remove the clouds and fog so that others can see you."

"It sounds good, but once the fog spreads, the enemy can't see us and we can't see it, right?"

"Who said that? This is the divine mist wind chime, created by the body and divine mist. The user of the main bell and his companions will not be affected by this mist."

"That's pretty much it. What about the bell?"

"Didn't I say this is Qinglong's stuff? Qinglong's stuff is all there. Anyway, as long as you decide you want it, we will get it for you. Do you want it or not?"

"Yes, of course." I nodded immediately to confirm. This bell should be a good item. From the introduction, it seems to be much better than the original illusion. When we attack Japanese cities in the future, we can disguise ourselves as a large dark cloud, and then we will slowly float above their heads, and then...hehehehehe...!

Seeing that I accepted the agreement, Taibaijinxing said: "Okay, I think I need to go to the Jade Emperor to discuss the last remaining Spirit Gathering Tower. Why don't you go back to your city first and let the True Lord help you sort out the things that have been decided? Get the stuff over there. I will go to your place to discuss it with you after we come up with the result."

"Then it's settled."

Ha ha! I didn't expect blackmail to be so easy. When I go back, I need to pack up the newly acquired things first, especially the magic arrow. I must find a farther target to test the effect. Why not use the Black Dragon Society's base camp for the experiment? Anyway, they have been bombed by me more than once, and I don’t care how many more times they come.
