Act 233 City of Trees (4)
This is a portal-type lair. It seems to be a passage connecting a certain secondary plane. Most of the methods for generating creatures in this type of lair are summoning, and the creatures are summoned to serve the summoner through equivalent exchange. ENovel Network (wWw.Exiao ¢shuo.cOM) Brando looked at this light door, skillfully took out two secondary moon crystals from the dimensional hole and threw them in. Sure enough, in a short time, the vortex of time became It brightened up, and then a small head poked out from inside.
It looked like a three-inch-long little person, or a girl scaled down to the same proportion. She had curly hair and was covered in clothes as thin as cicada wings. She was completely naked and had no wings, but could stay in the air nimbly. .
She looked outside in the whirlpool, then flew to Brando and others, and said respectfully: "Hello, Lord Lord." Her voice was thin and her accent was a little strange.
It seemed like a foreigner was speaking in Cruze.
As the girl spoke, she looked at everyone with curious eyes, but she was not afraid.
"The lord she talks about is the master of the magical territory, which is similar to your human lords, but different. From the perspective of magical creatures, only those who have power are natural lords, and they do not agree with honorary titles." Medissa explained to Akane and Roman on the side.
"Oh." Roman said, not sure if he understood.
Brando nodded. Unlike Qian and others, he was no stranger to these magical creatures because of his past experiences in games, so he asked directly: "What is your name, what kind of creature is it, and what abilities do you have? "
"My name is Monica." The girl put her hand on her chest. "Chirping introduced himself: "We are Light Spirits" are the people of light entrusted to protect this sacred land. Our ability is to cultivate this World Tree Fortress."
"World Tree Fortress?" Brando frowned. For some reason, he was very familiar with this term. He always felt as if he had heard it somewhere. However, recalling it carefully, he didn't know whether the memory of this section came from past games. , or the stories about the myths and legends of this world.
"World Tree Fortress, or according to your words, Lords, it can be called Valhalla, but Valhalla is actually the name of the second World Tree Fortress." This is the third and last one. "Monica replied.
"What are the second and third buildings? What exactly is the World Tree Fortress?" Brando couldn't help but ask. ∮E∮novels∮网, www.exiao whuo.C∮O∮M∮
"Then I don't know, Lord Lord, our knowledge comes from the inheritance of magical power.
This is what I said in my memory. This tree is the most basic form of the World Tree Fortress. "I only know this." Brando nodded again. Monica's statement is not surprising. Many of them are spread in the blood. Knowledge is just a fragment. However, he only asked this question casually. He was more concerned about the growth potential of Valhalla.
"Your ability is to cultivate this tree. How to cultivate it?" "Once the World Tree sprouts, it will grow slowly." Just think of us as gardeners who prune the branches and leaves of the tree, Lord Lord. "Monica replied.
Brando understood: "So you are the workers of this town. It can be understood that way, right?"
Monica nodded: "You can also say that we can help the lord build this city according to your wishes."
"So what can you build now?" "I can't do it alone, Lord, the light spirit is not omnipotent! I need more tribesmen to cooperate with my work. If there are one or two, With three light spirits, I can help the lord build the tree nest.
"Tree Nest?" Brando was puzzled. He was very familiar with the architectural sequence of the Kingdom of Eruin, such as noble barracks and blacksmith shops. He had also seen some high-end buildings, but he had never heard of such a term: "what is that?"
"Tree Nest can cultivate ancient tree roots. They are the most basic defense force of World Tree. Their strength is about the level of Peak Silver. However, they cannot leave World Tree. Lord, you can think of them as a kind of mobile defense. The fortifications, or the guards of this town.”
"In addition, the tree people and the world tree are actually one and part of the world tree, so they do not need a magic pool to provide power. The tree nest can be built in this [square]" or the upper layer of the tree canopy, and does not need to occupy The location of the magic pool. "Monica added.
"Part of the World Tree?" Brando thought it sounded like the withered beast of the Golden Demon Tree, but he was still very interested in a creature nest that did not need to occupy the location of the magic pool. Although he could not leave the World Tree, it could be used completely. For defense, they are the guards of the Silver Peak after all: "How many such guards can the Tree House make?"
"The space of the current World Tree can accommodate up to one, two, three, or four tree nests, and each tree nest can generate one, two, three... ten roots, Lord." Monica. Calculate carefully. ⊥E Novels, www.e
Forty items are really few. Brando was a little disappointed. If there were hundreds of them, then he could rely on Valhalla and sit back and relax. But think about it, the current Valhalla is only a large area. Just put down the city hall. It seemed a bit crowded, even if there were hundreds or thousands of guards, there was no room to accommodate them.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Valhalla..., I mean, how can this world tree continue to grow?" Monica replied: "This is the mission of our light spirits; our mission is Generate magic power to nurture it to grow, but if Monica is alone, it will take about one, two, three years for the World Tree to grow to the next stage..." "Wait, don't count, you can just say how many years. It's over." When Brando heard Monica turning over and over with her fingers and counting to forty, he finally couldn't help sweating. He was afraid that the little guy would keep counting until dark.
"How do you know how many years it is without counting?" Monica stared at Brando with wide eyes, seriously considering whether her Lord was an idiot for asking such a mentally retarded question.
Brando immediately knelt down, and the two of them bargained there for a long time, and finally figured out that it would take two hundred years for her to cultivate this World Tree alone.
"Two hundred years!" Qian was surprised when she heard this number. As a standard mortal, she still had some difficulties in accepting the unit of two hundred years~
That's almost an average person's lifetime.
"That is to say" as long as you have two hundred tribesmen, Monica, you can shorten this time to one year, right? "Brando has his own calculation method. After all, four hundred sub-moon crystals are not an unacceptable price for him. "Let me do the math..."
"Don't forget it yet, just tell me yes or no." Brando was sweating profusely again. In the previous discussion, he had discovered that this light spirit did not fail to count to ten, but that they seemed to work "I like to be strict" and don't like to save steps.
"Okay, but if it has to be completed within a year, we can't spare our hands to help the lord build other buildings." Monica thought for a while and replied.
But this is not a problem for Brando. He can definitely pay some extra light spirits to help him build his territory. But as soon as this idea was formed, Monica saw through it. She immediately broke Brando's fantasy: There is an upper limit on the number of "Lord Lord" portals that can pass through within a certain period of time. You don't want to summon Thousands of light spirits came to help Monica, right? "
"The upper limit?" Brando's daydream was like a mirror falling to the ground and shattering. He never expected that there was such a setting: "What is the upper limit?"
"The vortex of light can only withstand one, two, three...twenty energy jumps per month."
"That's twenty?"
Monica nodded.
Twenty per month, just summoning two hundred light spirits takes up to ten months. In this way, it will take at least a year and a half for the World Tree to grow to the next stage." Brando was suddenly a little disillusioned. How could he have such a long time? He originally thought that Valhalla Fortress would become a main force in his hands in a short time.
Fortunately, Monica's next words gave him the last glimmer of hope. Monica said that the portal can be expanded, but only if a Moon Tower is built in Valhalla.
Brando knows the Tower of the Moon well. It is an auxiliary building of the Mage Tower, and its function is to train astrologers. In the game, astrologers are actually a kind of specialized wizards. Their ability is prophecy and they are proficient in guiding magic.
The astrologer can shift the location of the magic gathering point, or guide the magic in the magic pool into the lair through the Moon Tower to increase the biological production of the lair, or make the alchemy laboratory more efficient.
This is their role in the game." What Monica wants to use now is obviously the first role of the Tower of the Moon. Although Brando doesn't know if the attributes in the game are still feasible here, but since If an aboriginal person like Monica says it's okay, and Medissa has no objections, then there must be no problem.
A Moon Tower can strengthen three other buildings. Although the Moon Tower itself also needs the location of a magic pool, its effect is equivalent to dividing the magic pool into three. In the past games, it was not an uncommon and unpopular building. However, Brando feels that he must be the first to build the Tower of the Moon in the primary territory.
Generally, lord players either build wizard towers or crystal pools, and few even build lairs, let alone moon towers. Although Brando has never been a lord, he still thinks this is too weird.
However, with the Tower of the Moon, the output of the Vortex of Light can be increased to forty. Brando is very optimistic about the growth prospects of Valhalla. After all, the title of the most legendary territory of the Amber Sword is not his. He will Valhalla. Hara regards it as his biggest potential support in the future, so as long as this fortress can be revitalized faster, it doesn't matter how much investment it takes.
So Brando used the remaining secondary moon crystal to summon the other nineteen light spirits. I don’t know what kind of evil intention the designer had. There seemed to be no male in the light spirit race, and all the ones summoned were scaled down. A soft girl, and she was chirping and making noise like a real fairy. After a while, the hall of World Tree was as lively as Eruin's most prosperous gathering.
Brando and others couldn't help but have a headache when they saw the noisy balls of light flying in the sky. He can fully imagine how lively this city of trees will be in the future when there are thousands or even tens of thousands of such residents." In fact he doubted the rest of the city's residents could sleep at all.
But at the same time, he also asked Monica about some other abilities of the Light Spirit, and learned that it would take about a week for twenty sisters to build a Tower of the Moon. This was not considered slow. The construction of the Tower of the Moon required the use of wizards. Magical power, if Brando only relies on the help of Ciel and his apprentices and half-hearted quack warlocks, it is estimated that it will take at least two or three months. This is also Ciel's estimated weekly use for the construction of his wizard tower. In addition to the Tree Nest, the Light Spirits will also build two special buildings belonging to Valhalla, the Valulan Warrior Hall and the Wind Archer Camp.
Brando has never heard of these two buildings, but according to Monica, these two buildings belong to the core ability of Valhalla, which is the ability to preserve heroic spirits, so Brando guessed that it may be to train these two buildings. There are two special types of buildings. Monica said that these two buildings do not require a magic pool, so he will definitely put them on the construction schedule.
After all, this was the fundamental reason why he needed Valhalla.
It takes ten light spirits to build the Valulen Warrior Hall for one month. The Wind Archer Camp is slightly shorter, but it also takes three weeks. Brando plans to place the Warrior Hall on the [Square], directly opposite the City Hall, and Wind Archer can use the second level of Valhalla. The Tree Nest is built on the canopy level, which just makes full use of all the space that Valhalla currently has.
Here, he had just finished calculating, and when he raised his head, he saw Fuluo walking in from the outside with a few people. Behind her were Caglis, the second son of Sir Mintai and captain of his guard at the time, and two other tall tree elf girls carrying long bows.
Caglis walked in the hall of the World Tree, looking around as curiously as a monkey, without any aristocratic demeanor. But the two elf girls were not much different. They both looked at the hall built on the tree with surprise.
For the tree elves, they have never seen an architectural style so similar to their hometown outside the Green Tower.
But when Brando saw Caglis and the tree elves together, the first thing he thought about was whether there was any progress on Belu and Tamar's side.
