At the Tower of the Great Sage, preparations for the Abyss War are in full swing.
The first wave of magician coalition forces in Xijia District has almost assembled. D magicians (500 people) were divided into v (5) columns according to wartime regulations. Several special teams began to arrange their own tasks and became familiar with each other. Avoid chaos when war begins.
But the preparation for the abyss goes far beyond that. The first foreign aid to arrive was ccc soldiers (300 people) sent by Queen Julia III from the nearest Kingdom of Frank. At the same time, he informed everyone that when the war was about to begin, he would personally lead several teams of the mysterious church temple warriors to join the war.
This kind of war between planes is not the matter of any single force. Suppose that because the Gate of the Abyss is opened near the Magic Tower, others are unwilling to send troops to assist. When the front line is breached, who can guarantee that the evil forces will not spread towards their homeland.
It is the consensus of the world to block the attack on the front line as much as possible. Not to mention the current Tower of the Great Sage, there is enough time for the human side to prepare. If we give up such an advantage, we can only say that we are unqualified as the leader of a force. Therefore, reinforcements from all over the southwestern peninsula and from nobles of all sizes kept coming.
There were also some adventurers and mercenaries who did not belong to any country's army. They also spontaneously came to the Tower of the Great Sage and organized an uprising under the leadership of several well-known warriors.
Of course, the three Magician Association branches in the Southwest Peninsula, except for Xijia District, will not be absent from this war. The first one to arrive was surprisingly the airship from Leon District. A boatload of magic elites arrived, and cheers could be heard from all over the Tower of the Great Sage.
As the most powerful war weapon in the Lost World, second only to the Magic Tower, the emergence of airships is extremely inspiring. Moreover, the magic tower does not have long legs, so it is impossible for the magicians to carry it on their backs. Compared with the freedom of taking off an airship and the lack of anti-aircraft means in this era, in the minds of many people, the threat of an airship is far greater than that of a magic tower.
Furthermore, along with the airship, Jose Carlos, president of the Leon District branch of the Magicians Association, personally confirmed that the coalition forces in the Leon District have been organized and are heading towards the Tower of the Great Sage. This news is much stronger than the indifferent verbal support from the great nobles of certain countries on the forum.
The second one to arrive was the magician coalition of the Noonan District Chapter, which was closer to the Tower of the Great Sage. The same d (500) people, v (5) columns, and several special teams. Their elite level is not inferior to the magicians in Xijia District.
After all, in the upcoming war, it is meaningless to compete with the demons on which side has more cannon fodder and who is less afraid of death. In the shortest possible time, the most correct approach is to concentrate the greatest strength to repel the enemy and close the door to the abyss.
Seeing that the area around the Tower of the Great Sage has been opened up into a large military camp. The warriors and magicians who were used to fighting were practicing battle formations that could gather everyone's strength most efficiently, but everyone's mood was not getting better at all. Because the cracks in the sky are clearly visible. If it wasn't still unstable and constantly changing shape, the army gathered on the opposite side might have invaded.
But the volcanic terrain and the dim sky that appear from time to time through the cracks only make people's emotions more and more depressed. And this is also true. The atmosphere of this large barracks seems to be full of vitality, but if you take a closer look, you will find that everyone's spirits are tense to the extreme.
Maybe start the fight directly. In the midst of the war, everyone will not have time to think wildly. It is a pity that the devil has not officially appeared yet, so everyone can only wait and train themselves until they have no energy to think about other things. Unfortunately, the effect is not effective. No matter how tired they are, people will still worry.
After all, the latest war against the Abyss was already a hundred years ago. The brutality of that war, with its numerous casualties, still frightens local residents to this day. And various tragic stories are circulating on the Lost Continent.
Compared to the depressing atmosphere outside the tower, there is a completely different feeling inside the tower. In every corner, there was a magician, an old man with a gray beard, or a fair-skinned young man. They all concentrated their attention and carefully studied the circuits of the magic tower that were exposed in front of everyone.
Some people are copying, some are counting; some are arguing about the purpose of putting two mutually exclusive runes together; some are struggling with everything they see in front of them.
But it doesn't make sense to just look at the mana circuit of the Great Sage's Tower that has been changed beyond recognition. It also has to be combined with the program that is stored in the energy pool and can be controlled in front of the console to fully present the appearance of the tower.
Of course, at the beginning of the transformation, Lin could make the program a program, and the function of the large circuit board of the Magic Tower was a function of the circuit board design. But he never thought of letting two things exist alone. Combining them together and cooperating with each other can use more convenient methods to get better results, so why do you have to abuse yourself with backward design concepts.
And this kind of thinking has caused the pain of the current group of magicians. It is easy to understand the energy circuits all over the tower body, but no one can explain how to make them into a whole.
If the original tower owner was still there and someone asked, he would say without reservation: All magic circles will not operate at the same time, everything is selectively run by program, that's all.
It's a pity that that person was not there, and no one asked such a question. Therefore, the group of people who planned to seize the tower can only swallow the bitter fruit. You can only do everything by yourself.
And spending so much time studying the magic tower was actually the biggest reason why the magicians on that ship came all the way here.
In the name of war, he openly entered the magic tower regarded as the core by others. Then, using the reason of sharing magic knowledge, let the current tower owner open the energy channels of the whole tower, so that everyone can study it happily. Such behavior is something that is impossible to do normally.
Then Chuck Weiss, the current tower master of the Great Sage's Tower, does he want to protect the secret of the Great Sage's Tower from the prying eyes of others? To be honest, he himself didn't understand the details of this tower. As for the president, Jose Carlos, personally coming forward to suppress him, the apprentice of his own president and teacher, he just followed the trend and asked to share a copy of the research results.
And the answer to the question that everyone wants to know is the maximum range of protection that the Tower of the Great Sage can provide when paired with the Arcane Eye.
On the night when the original tower owner left, there was an attack far away, and traces of light bullets flew into the distance, but it was seen in the eyes of many people. After that, more than a hundred people attacked the carriages and horses of the Magician Association and were bombarded by light bombs flying from the sky. The news spread equally quickly on the forum.
This is far from the limit of the Arcane Eyes. The question is, if two magics are paired with each other, can each be 100% effective? There will still be growth or decay due to matching.
How to test?
From a practical point of view, we can only try it at the risk of human life.
Then...whose life?
This is the reason why the original tower owner did not encounter any other attacks on his return trip to Wulian City after the attack on the first day. Even the bandits and bandits hid far away, not even wanting to see this car and horse team.
Before figuring out the ultimate detection range of the Arcane Eye, the maximum distance that the Great Sage's Tower can provide protection, and the conditions for this magic tower to launch an automatic attack, all those with bad intentions stopped. It's one thing to target someone for profit, but it's another thing to do it at the cost of one's life.
In addition to someone studying the energy circuit of the tower, there is a row of magicians sitting next to the console in the core room, with water mirror screens in front of them. On the screen is a large amount of text that does not conform to the grammar of daily spoken language. They are trying to parse the program in the magic tower. Not only do you want to be able to understand, but you also want to be able to improve. As for what you want to change, it is not enough for outsiders to explain.
This work started from the moment Chuck Weiss settled in the Tower of the Great Sage. To this day, nearly a month has passed, but there has been no progress.
Several times, Chuck Weiss had the urge to take out the magic stone and destroy this incomprehensible ghost tower. There were also several times when he wanted to recall the original tower owner and return this confusing tower to him, but the condition was that he had to be on the front line against the devil.
Unfortunately, neither thing is allowed.
Even with so much pressure and criticism from the outside world, Chuck Vista's position as leader is still as stable as a mountain, and it is not all due to his president and teacher. In fact, the atmosphere outside the tower has almost reached a critical point. Even if someone shouts loudly, it may cause a roar. In this atmosphere, Chuck Weiss is still sitting in that position, more like a reserve who is ready to take the blame in the future.
Chuck Weiss understands this. But there is no better way. So he simply gave up on figuring out what the Tower of the Great Sage was doing before the war and how it was used. And put more energy on the arrangement of logistical supplies, the coordination and reorganization of the organizational structure, and more importantly, appeasing the depressed and restless people.
In short, to properly manage the number of people outside the tower, which has exceeded vbar (5000), requires not only talent, but also some reputation. Otherwise, some guys who rely on their elders and show off their talents would never pay attention to a person who is younger and less experienced than them.
The name of his own president and teacher is certainly loud enough, but when it comes to his turn, even if he still has the title of great magician, there is always some dissatisfaction. How to appease these people also made Chuck Weiss feel a headache. Moreover, the number of people gathering here is still increasing, and it is inevitable that there will be some people who have personal grudges with each other. These people are even more difficult to arrange.
Although life is still busy, for Chuck Weiss, at least this is something he can understand. As for the secret of the tower, he had already given up somewhat.
