Chapter 282: The Elves' Observations in Storm Bay
Compared to humans, the entertainment activities of elves always seem a bit dull.
Most elves in the elf hometown of Aerenal will learn poetry, music, painting and other arts to kill time, but the elves of Verena in Khorvaire don't have so much free time.
They have to fight with the Dakan goblins, and the entertainment activities they pursue cannot be so "peaceful".
Or, they like something more exciting.
...
With curiosity about the spirit card, the female elf Kasha from Verena came to Storm Bay with a half-elf look.
More than two hundred years ago, she followed her teacher here once, when Storm Bay was still synonymous with chaos and barbarism.
But now that she set foot on this land again, Kasha found that it seemed to have become clean and tidy all of a sudden.
There are special small constructs on the streets to pick up garbage and clean the streets, and there are vending machines on the roadside that can buy cheap food with copper or silver coins.
How can this be the shabby city once occupied by pirates and adventurers? The Tower of Wonders of Arkanix is probably the best treatment!
‘No, I heard that the artificer who overthrew the rule of the Storm Council was a student of Akanix. Wouldn’t this guy copy the system from his school?
Tsk, I really hope that His Majesty the Supreme King can hire this artificer to transform the city of Tyre. That city that was born for war really lacks these convenient facilities. ’
Complaining about the infrastructure of her hometown, Kassa took out copper coins and silver coins and bought some food and drinks from the vending machine.
However, she walked back and forth several times and didn’t find the place where the spirit cards were sold.
“Wow~, although it is much cleaner and tidier, the living area of the town has obviously become much smaller. Such a large place should not be able to accommodate many people, right?”
Looking at the buildings on the surface, Kassa commented to herself.
At this moment, a "ding" sound suddenly came from the building next to it.
Before Kassa could react, a large group of adventurers came out of the seemingly small building in an endless stream.
Most of them were wearing leather armor and medium armor, holding weapons in their hands.
As soon as they came out of the building, they headed towards the wilderness in groups.
After they dispersed, Kassa carefully walked into the building just now.
In the not-so-big building, twelve elevators were arranged in a circle with the center of the building as the center, like the twelve scales of a clock.
Each elevator can accommodate about 30 people, and there are a total of 27 such buildings in Storm Bay.
They are evenly distributed near various areas with dense traffic, and even when the traffic is the largest, people can reach their destination as quickly as possible.
Of course, there are also matching walking stairs. For those anxious adventurers, running stairs is not slow.
Curious Kassa rushed into an elevator before it was about to close. Then, the elevator started running automatically and took her to the underground area where the Afterlife Bar was located.
Elevators are not uncommon in Khorvaire, but most of them are powered by steam, and Carl applied the technology of the construct to it, allowing the operation of the elevator to be controlled by the intelligence of the construct.
These technologies were not difficult, but the advanced design made Kassa linger. At this moment, the elevator door opened.
Looking at the adventurers waiting outside the door, she quickly raised her hand and said "Please make way" while protecting her wallet and getting off the elevator.
The more people there are, the more active thieves are. This is a lesson Kassa learned from the experience of losing her wallet hundreds of times.
Looking at the bustling underground street in front of her, Kassa understood why there were so few buildings on the surface.
After looking around for a while, she found a human male who looked frivolous and used the spell of charming humans to get a lot of information from him.
For example, some common sense in Storm Bay, such as the sales location of spirit cards, and which nearby restaurant is the best.
After writing down the name of the delicious restaurant, Kassa turned her head and prepared to go to the so-called afterlife bar to test the waters.
Following the guidance of the charmed person, she soon came to the afterlife bar decorated with a cyberpunk atmosphere. As soon as she entered, she saw the first floor lobby that was almost full.
"I use the two giant lizard spirits on the field as sacrifices to upgrade the summon! Dwarf Warber! Go! Warber Charge!"
When passing by a card table, Kassa saw a human who was nearly 40 years old shouting in a very passionate tone.
The dwarf wearing spiked armor on the card table charged at another spirit on the opposite side.
The advantage of the surprise attack gave the Dwarf Warber spirit a certain advantage, and the opponent's spirit could only resist defense.
But this defense gradually disintegrated under the repeated attacks of the Dwarf Warber spirit. Finally, the opponent's spirit was shattered and turned into invisible energy into the body of the Dwarf spirit.
Its body became stronger, and the spiked armor on its body became more ferocious.
Kassa felt that if there were no accidents, this Dwarf spirit might win this battle.
But the player who lost his spirit did not give up. After a short deep breath, he took out three cards from his deck.
"My turn! Draw a card!"
The player put three cards into his hand with great momentum. His eyes lit up and he immediately summoned a spirit that looked like a white-bearded old man in a wizard robe.
"I summon the old wizard and equip him with a wand. I activate the wand effect and burn metal!"
Although Carl has not yet found a way to make the spirit card have a spell effect, the wisdom of the people is infinite. After countless attempts, they found that magic equipment can actually condense the corresponding spirit and obtain the effect of equipment carrying.
However, these magic equipment often have certain limitations. For example, many wand equipment cards can only be equipped to wizard-type spirits.
Following the player's order, a black wand appeared in the hand of the white-bearded wizard spirit, and it fired magic at the dwarf war maniac on the opposite side.
The hideous spiked armor immediately turned red and the dwarf war maniac also knelt on the ground in pain.
Although the spirit upgrade will increase the "blood volume" of the spirit to a certain extent, it will not make them full. Although the dwarf's resistance to fire is not bad, it has not reached the level of immunity.
Under the damage of the burning metal, the already severely injured spirit finally couldn't hold on, and finally shattered and dissipated, becoming the nourishment of the opposite mage's spirit.
Kai'Sa, who was about to move forward, didn't expect that his prediction was wrong, so he ran to the nearby card table to watch the rest of the game.
