Act 46 ‘The Nest’

It is known that the formation of Warend comes from the contract between the god Ahiru of the Luz people, or the mother Martha of the Arluin people, and the four Elf Kings. Chaos is also called the Sea of ​​Chaos outside the world. Make it form a boundary based on six elements.

Within this boundary, the outer layer is the elemental territory, and the inner layer is the infinite land.

The power of the gods who guide the rules of the world is reflected in the sky above the earth, forming the sun, moon and stars. Therefore, life is born from the water, multiplies on the earth, is protected by the wind, and is given wisdom by the fire, and the mortal world is completed. However, in addition to the 130 million rules set by God Ahiru, the God-man Code and the rules of the elements, the Sea of ​​Chaos did not surrender. It is also reflected on the sky, and is called the third moon by cultists, the Holy Moon among tree herders, or the Silver Serpent and the Magic Moon described in the classics of the All-Union Society.

According to legend, the invisible magic moon gazes at the earth from the western sky for several months in every ten years, such as the Summer Moon, the Scroll Moon, and the Resurrection Moon. Therefore, these months are also when wizards and witches have the most magical power. period, which was also the period when the elements were at their weakest. The magic tide caused by the magic moon at this moment set off waves on the sea of ​​chaos, causing monsters affected by these magic powers to be born in the darkness.

That is to say, what people call monsters - the tide of magic drives them to attack civilized areas, causing the guardian land of Ehiru to collapse inward. The territory of small civilizations shrinks accordingly. In the early days of the Chaos Era, almost every civilization had to face the tide of magic. The right enemy of life and death, and this is the reason why the pioneer knights exist.

Even in modern times, a country's reserve war potential must be prepared to cope with the decline of civilization.

However, the tide of magic comes once every ten years, and the last time it came was just two years ago. It is still early for the once-in-a-century tide, so people in this era are not too worried.

It's just that after the tide of magic recedes, the nest where the monsters spawned will not disappear. They will also create monsters composed of magic power or mutated beasts over the years, so there are occasional reports of roads being cut off by monsters in areas around big cities.

In Eruin, it is the job of the security team and the Temple of Fire to eliminate these monsters and nests.

However, not all nests are destroyed. In the long-term battle with "Chaos," people learned how to tame the "nest" so that the products inside could be used for themselves, just like how their ancestors discovered the method of taming wild beasts.

Even after long-term research, races such as humans, elves and even dwarves themselves have also found ways to create similar "nests".

For example, Buga's gargoyle lair is a typical example.

Note: A typical gargoyle nest produces two gargoyles per year; but building this nest and maintaining the magic power of the nest requires a large amount of resources, so even one. For a country that relies on "nests" as war reserves, its war potential is not endless.

The domesticated lair is similar to the mount of the Eruin dragon knight and the griffon of the Cruz people. As well as the ground dragons, war basilisks or black wolves that people often see.

But there is another kind of lair, the Cave of Protection, which is a product born under the influence of camp forces such as light, darkness, fire, wind, water or rocks, or the forces of the order law set by Martha Ehiru.

For example, the Abyss of the Wind in St. Osol. The gate to heaven in the Kingdom of the Knights of the Church, the Shadow Canyon of Madara.

Of course, these nests are also divided into three, six, nine and so on.

For example, there are hound nests in most Silver Wing Cavalry and Guard military camps. Although the annual output of these things is as high as sixteen, unfortunately, their combat effectiveness is only a tier above that of ordinary hounds.

Moreover, the lifespan of deflated objects gradually declines with the magic power that makes up their bodies, and is often short-lived. Even the dragon clan with a long lifespan will disappear after a mere hundred years. Compared with the real dragon clan, it is a world of difference.

The stone nest mentioned by Brando here is an artificial nest, which is the product of alchemy.

The monster produced is a stone golem, with a combat power equivalent to that of seven or eight adults. This kind of lair is a rather low-level lair, but it is small but popular. There are such things in the territories of many nobles. Although the stone puppet has low intelligence. But it can still be used as a soldier.

So when Antisona saw the Rock Corps necklace, this was the first thing she thought of. If Brando intended to build some stone lairs, how much money could this necklace save them?

But Bartome took into account the disguised increase in production.

Therefore, the three of them made up their minds at the same time to "grab this necklace."

The reserve price was quickly revealed. The Rock Corps Necklace was certainly not as valuable as the Elemental Revelation Scroll, so its price tag was only two thousand Thors, with a one hundred increase each time.

Because he was determined to win, Brando was not in a hurry to take action this time. He waited to see what others would do. So as not to expose your thoughts prematurely.

The first bidder was born in the crowd. The one holding the sign was also a young knight. Both Tina and Tomu looked over there, but made no move.

After several competitions, the price rose to 3,000, and the number of bidders began to decrease. Brando understood that most of the people who participated in the bidding before had a participatory mentality. In fact, most of them were not really interested in this necklace.

But from now on, the competition began to become calm on the surface, but became fierce on the inside.

The bidding power was quickly taken over by the little nobles in the third-floor box, and Zhengzi told them about a few of these people. Most were nobles from outside Prague and had their own territories.

The price rose to four thousand tols. This is not a low price for this necklace, and real hunters start to join the competition at this moment.

Starting from four thousand four hundred, the third box on the right was quoted at five thousand.

For a moment, the whole place was almost silent.

Many people are thinking, are those nobles crazy? And more people couldn't help but be ready to take action. This sudden offer made some speculators realize that this necklace might bring them more benefits.

There were ripples in the crowd again, which made Brando feel a little bad. He knew he had to use facts to dissuade these opportunists, so he asked Masako to take action.

Six thousand tols.

Another moment of silence.

Those who were eager to try immediately smelled the beginning of the war, and all of them cautiously withdrew their hands.

seven thousand.

This time the bidder was a certain squadron leader of the White Mane Legion. Then he was taken back by a noble in the city for 7,500 yuan.

Brando did not hesitate to let the price rise to eight thousand.

Batoyao swallowed.

Eight thousand one hundred, the price quoted for the third box on the right.

Brando asked Zhengzi to increase the bid to 8,500. He looked in the direction of the stage with no intention of giving up. Antitina couldn't help but grab the handle of the chair behind him. The knuckles of the fingers are faintly white.

There was silence in the dimly lit auction room, and even the nobles were silent. No one here is a fool. For a Rock Legion necklace, they will also consider whether it is worth it.

But Brando's considerations are different. His need for the army and territory was more urgent than anyone else. The funds in Antitina's hands were only for the territory. This was also the consensus reached by him, Bottom and the noble daughter before.

The auctioneer hammered once.

The squadron leader of the White Mane Legion seemed eager to try and prepare to struggle again, but he hesitated and ultimately did not take action. After three hammerings, Brando got the necklace as he wished. Bazi's man had already settled the bill with his money and sent the things over.

Brando glanced around and noticed that no one was paying attention in his direction, and then carefully put away the necklace. After all, this thing requires the Stone Nest to be used, and now it can only be used as an exhibit temporarily.

After the Rock Legion Necklace, the auction gradually heated up. First, several pieces of art were added, causing a fight among the nobles. Then there were two sets of bronze-level magic armors. These two sets of armor almost ignited adventurers and mercenaries. With the enthusiasm of those traveling knights, the scene became heated, and the two pieces of armor were finally sold for more than 40,000 tols.

Then there was a series of exciting products, and Brando once again got a set of playing cards that were said to have magical powers. But he didn't want this set of cards, he just wanted to get the fate card hidden in the set of playing cards.

In fact, as soon as the auctioneer brought the deck to the platform, several cards in his backpack immediately reacted. He and Ciel looked at each other and immediately bought the cards.

This time he had no strong opponents, only a few nobles who liked weird gadgets competed with him, and finally he successfully bought the card for 2,500 tols.

When Brando pulled out the destiny card from the stack of playing cards, he found that it was a cyan card. On the front of the card, there was a group of cyan little spiders born from the whirlwind. The serial number on the card was four four four. "Pay the fee for the corresponding wind element

The sylph spider swarm dies, and a target is designated to burn its mana.

"Produced from the vortex, returned to the mana vortex",

Brando couldn't help but was slightly stunned when he scanned the description of this card. First of all, the summoning-level creature card made him feel a little bit at a loss, and the cost label and description made him puzzled. He thought for a moment and couldn't help turning his head to the side and asked Charles in a low voice, "What does this mean?"

Charles on the side glanced at the card and smiled slightly.

Four. This is the first update today. I don’t know how many more updates there will be.
