Chapter 526, Ninth-Level Branch City, It’s Time to Attack the Royal Capital!
"Lilith, can the puzzle lock be combined with the magic circle?"
After opening the puzzle lock treasure box, he saw the reward items popping out.
Fang Yuan asked Lilith in confusion.
Lilith herself has a very high achievement in puzzle locks.
This kind of question is naturally very simple for her.
"Of course."
"Lord."
"The earliest origin of the maze is the magic circle."
"This matter has a long history."
"If you really want to dig deeper, you can even trace it back to the ancient war of gods."
"But there are too many legends in those."
"I will roughly tell you what has been confirmed."
"Magic circles were widely used in the sub-god era."
"Basically, there are more or less magic circles in every relic of the sub-god era."
"But most of these magic circles are not too threatening."
"During the racial war, wizards rose up."
"To protect their own nests."
"The wizards improved the magic circle."
"Added many means of attack."
"These are the predecessors of the maze technology that can be verified."
"But the maze was not separated at that time."
"After the rise of the arcane masters, a similar The toy of the Seven-Way Magic Array was developed. "
"This is the first time that the maze and the magic array are independent of each other."
"It is from this time that the maze is a separate magic entity."
"Later, in the Glory Calendar era, the maze began to develop greatly."
"Because the mages found that making mazes can not only provide magic arrays with various strange attack forms."
"The most important thing is that it can improve the mages' perception of magic particles."
"When used in the early childhood stage, it can also develop the magic talent of children in advance."
"Since then, the maze has ushered in a great development."
"And with the independence of the maze and the magic array."
"It also brought great development to the magic array."
"The Magic God City can mass-produce magic arrays and sell them at a cheap price."
"Then make the maze core and sell it at a high price."
Hearing this, Fang Yuan finally understood the real use of the maze.
He also knew the operating principle of the maze magic array.
"It sounds like software and hardware."
"The core of the puzzle lock is software, and the magic circle is hardware."
Fang Yuan's professional knowledge sounded quite strange to Lilith.
"Lord, are there items with similar principles on Blue Star?"
Fang Yuan nodded.
"A lot."
"But they are all tricky."
In response, Lilith shrugged.
"Everyone is the same."
"Many unscrupulous mages who make puzzle lock cores will leave backdoors."
"If it's just some hidden backdoors, it's fine."
"I'm afraid it's those puzzle locks with backdoors that hide surveillance."
"Some mages buy this kind of product."
"Then everything is really exposed to others."
"Not to mention that there is no privacy at all, some morally corrupt guys will share this surveillance backdoor."
"In the Glory Calendar era, there were often mages' explosive puzzle lock surveillance leaked through various channels."
"Even the City of Magic Gods couldn't stop it."
"The mages who were monitored were simply miserable."
"But fortunately, the City of Magic Gods later released a certified version of the puzzle lock core."
"After certification, it can be guaranteed that there will be no surveillance backdoors hidden in it."
Fang Yuan heard Lilith's words.
An idea popped into his mind.
"On the weakness of human nature."
"No matter if it's humans in the Extraordinary Continent or the technological world."
"They are essentially a group of carbon-based creatures with a desire to pry into others' private lives."
After answering the question, Lilith turned her eyes to the prop in his hand.
"Did Lord get such an item from a treasure chest?"
"Be careful then."
"Don't get the core of the maze that hides surveillance."
"Once another Lord gets the core of the maze that can be viewed remotely."
"Then Lord, your secret will be exposed."
"So Lord, if you have this thing, you'd better check it for me."
"Back then, I was the head of the certification maze core testing department in the City of the God of Law."
"Since I took charge of this department."
"No maze core can escape my eyes."
Hearing this, Fang Yuan hurriedly opened the panel of the invisible maze magic array in his hand and handed it to Lilith for inspection.
[Name]: Shadow-hiding magic circle
[Quality]: None
[Purpose]: After use, it can hide traces. It cannot be moved after being set up. The range of the magic circle is 200 kilometers in radius with the main city as the center. The setting time is 30 days.
[Note]: The props are divided into the Shadow Core and the Magic Circle. The Shadow Core can be replaced with other Mystery Lock Cores, and the Magic Circle cannot be adjusted after use. After the Magic Circle is arranged, it needs to be activated with the Shadow Core. After activation, any unit entering the Magic Circle will fall into the Shadow Mystery Lock. If the Mystery Lock cannot be unlocked, it will be trapped in it forever. The user's unit will not fall into the Mystery Lock and can attack the invading unit at will within the range of the Magic Circle.
Lilith stood up after a careful inspection.
She said in a relaxed tone.
"It seems that the Lord is lucky. This thing is a regular product of the City of the God of Law."
"It is not a magic circle made by those informal mages."
"And the function of this magic circle is also very powerful."
"This magic circle of invisibility was a well-known defensive circle in the old continent."
"Most of the time it is used in floating cities."
"It is the first line of defense for floating cities."
"When invading a plane, some floating cities often like to use this magic circle to trap the enemy's high-level units first."
"Then mobilize the magic crystal cannon to kill the invaders one by one."
Hearing this.
Fang Yuan's eyes lit up.
"It seems that my luck is really good today."
Then he asked again.
"Does this thing have any shortcomings?"
Lilith shook her head.
"Of course not."
"The disadvantages of this thing are also obvious."
"That is, if you want to replace the core of the maze lock, not only does the maze lock core need to be specially produced by the God of Law City."
"You also need to master the corresponding technology and the password for reactivating the maze lock."
"But the second condition is nothing to the lord."
"With me here, no password or technology is a problem."
"The key is still the first one, which requires the maze lock core specially produced by the God of Law City."
"I can't solve this problem either."
"Because in order to make this maze lock core, it requires a complete magic industrial system in the God of Law City."
"We don't have this."
"In other words, if the lord wants to replace the core of the maze lock in the future, he can only use the one produced by the God of Law City."
Fang Yuan is not very worried about this.
"There will always be a chance to get it."
"Now."
"Lilith, how about you set up this maze lock magic array."
"The requirements are not high."
"Just protect the surroundings of the main city."
Lilith said without hesitation.
"Of course, no one is more suitable than me."
After saying that, he took the magic circle of the invisible shadow lock from Fang Yuan and left.
After Lilith took the magic circle to set it up.
Fang Yuan thought to himself.
"The things you get from opening the treasure chest are all high-level props that can be used."
"It seems that I have good luck today."
"Now the treasure chests have been opened."
"Why not try your own blessing luck."
Fang Yuan opened the talent panel.
Selected the talent blessing.
The next moment.
"Ding, the blessing is successful, you get the blue item healing scroll * 1."
Hearing the prompt sound, Fang Yuan put the scroll on the space trading market with an expressionless face.
"Luck is indeed a fluctuating curve."
"People can't always have good luck."
"Today's good luck ends here."
"If you continue to use blessing, it will be counterproductive."
"It's better to use the golden source crystal first."
Fang Yuan closed the talent panel.
He then opened the construction panel on the Lord's Seal.
Then he found the branch city.
"The branch city is now level 4, and the main reason for the upgrade is the source crystal."
"But now the golden source crystal is enough."
"Then we need to complete the remaining two conditions."
Fang Yuan thought and opened the conditions required for the branch city upgrade.
[Upgrade conditions. ]
One, 40 million gold coins, resources, 40 points of golden source crystal (completed)
Two, resource output reaches 60,000 points/day (completed, shared main city)
Three, the territory controlled by the branch city reaches 400 hectares of land. (Completed)
Four, there are three buildings in the branch city (uncompleted)
Five, the population of the branch city reaches the maximum (uncompleted)
"The building of the branch city, this is easy to handle."
Fang Yuan opened the Lord's Seal, bought a white spear barracks in the space trading market, and built it in the branch city.
As for the population of the branch city.
Fang Yuan directly increased the number of spearmen to the maximum.
Then use the mobilization order to speed up.
Instantly.
These two conditions are displayed as completed.
"Ding, the upgrade is successful, and your sub-city level has reached LV5."
Fang Yuan did not stop even after reaching level 5.
Currently, there are many golden source crystals.
If conditions permit, it is entirely possible to upgrade its level.
Fang Yuan opened the sub-city panel again to check the conditions required for upgrading from level 5 to level 6.
1. 50 million gold coins, resources, 50 points of golden source crystals (completed)
2. Resource output reaches 80,000 points/day (completed, shared main city)
3. The territory controlled by the sub-city reaches 500 hectares of land. (completed)
4. There are four buildings in the sub-city, and the level reaches the current highest level (uncompleted)
5. The population of the sub-city reaches the full quota (uncompleted)
6. Build a defense tower in the sub-city, and the quality reaches orange (uncompleted.)
Fang Yuan saw this condition.
He was about to open the Lord's Seal to buy it.
But soon he looked outside the main city.
There!
Fang Yuan saw the mechanical spider tower standing.
"This arrow tower can be moved."
"Is it possible to put this arrow tower directly in the branch city?"
"In this way, I don't have to spend a lot of effort to upgrade it."
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan decided to give it a try.
He selected the mechanical spider tower and chose to move it to the branch city.
Then the tower was directly set as a branch city building.
After completing this step.
Fang Yuan looked at the upgrade conditions again.
Found that the sixth and fourth conditions were all met.
As for the fifth condition, the population must be full.
Fang Yuan once again pulled up the spearmen.
Instantly, all conditions were met.
Fang Yuan selected the branch city, chose to upgrade, and upgraded the branch city directly to level six.
The next level is level seven.
"From level 6 to level 7, the first few conditions are similar."
"The key is the seventh condition."
"But when Fang Yuan checked this condition."
"I saw that this condition was completed."
One, 60 million gold coins, resources, 60 points of golden source crystals (completed)
Two, resource output reaches 100,000 points/day (completed, shared main city)
Three, the territory controlled by the sub-city reaches 600 hectares of land. (Completed)
Four, there are five buildings in the sub-city, and the level reaches the current highest level (uncompleted)
Five, the population of the sub-city reaches the full quota (uncompleted)
Six, build two defense towers in the sub-city, and the quality reaches orange (uncompleted.)
Seven, the buildings in the sub-city, except the buildings in the main city, open a magic pattern (completed)
Seeing this seventh condition.
Fang Yuan's eyes locked on the mechanical spider tower.
"It should be the condition for the magic pattern on this arrow tower to be achieved."
"The quality of the mechanically enhanced magic pattern of the spider tower is not low."
For ordinary lords, the magic pattern condition is the most difficult among these conditions.
And now I can easily complete it.
The remaining conditions are nothing to Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan directly bought the worst orange arrow tower multi-scattering arrow tower on the space trading market.
This arrow tower can attack two units continuously.
But the damage is too low.
It is a building that makes up the number.
And the conditions for its upgrade are not high.
So Fang Yuan chose it.
Then all the other conditions were met.
A message popped up with the lord's mark.
Fang Yuan upgraded the branch city to level seven.
The next level is level eight and level nine.
The newly added conditions are that the magic pattern must reach level two and that there must be at least one orange magic pattern in the magic pattern of the branch city.
These two conditions are nothing to Fang Yuan.
He easily achieved them with the spider mechanical tower.
And there is no obstacle to the upgrade conditions.
Fang Yuan upgraded the sub-city to level nine at once.
"Ding, upgrade successful, your sub-city has reached level nine."
After reaching level nine.
If you want to continue upgrading, you must upgrade the main city to level ten.
And this also means.
Among the conditions for Fang Yuan's main city upgrade.
There are only two conditions left.
"The fragments of the divine power and all the hero awakening camp skills."
In response to this.
Fang Yuan closed the building panel of the Lord's Seal.
He looked into the distance.
He said softly.
"Christian."
"It's time to go south to break through the capital and unify Gondor."
"Send an order!"
"Call the heroes back to the main city."
"Discuss!"
"Southward plan!!!"
Christian, who had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, replied excitedly.
"Lord."
"It's finally going to start."
"I can't wait."
After saying that, he turned around and left the Lord's Hall.
