After more than a year of hard work, the Phoenix City Defense Magic Array led by Olan finally completed all the work and was officially delivered.
Hearing that the Phoenix King would come to the delivery site in person, Oran's teacher Liv was unwilling to be there and even advised Oran not to go. Seeing this, other people were also afraid that there was some serious danger inside, and they began to "get sick" one after another.
In the end, Olan went alone and saw the Phoenix King for the first time.
The Phoenix King, like His Highness the Special Envoy, is a night tribe without short horns on their foreheads. It seems that these two are the only ones like this in the entire royal city. Of course, there are too many mixed blood people in the exile, so their appearance is not an eye-catching point.
There is no oppressive kingly aura in the story, and he feels more like a kind scholar who treats others politely.
Olan explained all aspects of the magic array during the entire delivery process. The Phoenix King only thanked the team on behalf of the city at the end, saying a total of two sentences.
After listening to Olan's description, Liv felt that it was different from what she expected. She thought that people who conquered four cities in a short period of time would be more irritable.
There was a slight disagreement between the master and the apprentice here.
Oran: "Teacher, I really think you are too prejudiced against the Phoenix King. He is not a murderous demon."
Liv did not deny it: "Maybe, but here we face the battlefield of the Three Realms. Killing and being killed will be the theme from now on, and it will not change because of the Phoenix King's personality."
"Teacher is leaving?"
"Yes, I'm going to collect the props stores in various places and check the situation."
Liv not only has props shops in Pangxun City, but also has four in other places. This is a way for her to collect historical clues, and making a little money is just incidental.
Now that the demons are becoming more and more active, it is estimated that it will not take too long to open up the three realms. Later, there will be opportunities to directly obtain information about the humans and demons. The clue collection function of the prop shop has weakened, and with Phoenix City’s artificial gems, the income will also increase. It seemed insignificant and there was no need to maintain it. She was going to settle the little mage and apprentice inside.
"I think we can let everyone come and live in the Phoenix King's territory."
"You have a high opinion of him."
Oran shook his head: "It's not that I have a favorable impression of the Phoenix King after meeting him, but his management methods make me think that other lords are just insects."
Phoenix King has invested heavily in education, public security, and transportation, and people are fully employed. After living in Phoenix for a long time, I realized that I had made a mistake in the order. It should be sufficient employment first, and then good public security.
Regardless of the cause and effect, the Phoenix King's territory was more advanced than any force he had seen before. This advancement was not brought about by a railway, but by differences in the entire social structure.
Liv didn't see it, but what she cared about was not people, but the secrets between gods. In the face of that kind of existence, all advanced things might be destroyed.
"I once saw a very progressive country where production was almost completely steamed. But unfortunately, it has disappeared in the last round of the God War. Now few people remember it. Even the steam engine is due to insufficient production of raw materials. , the cost is getting higher and higher and people are gradually abandoning it.”
"So the teacher thinks the Phoenix King will have the same outcome?"
"I don't know, but it's best not to invest too much emotion. The ending may make people feel desperate."
"...I try my best."
Liv looked at her apprentice carefully and stretched out her hand to straighten his collar: "The interests of man and God are not consistent. If the Phoenix King can reach that day, you will find out. Take care."
"Teacher too."
After helping her apprentice to live in Phoenix City for more than half a year, Liv did not gain nothing except gems. She also began to realize that the Phoenix King might actually be a godless guy!
There is no black and white evidence, but there are no temples in the entire Phoenix King territory, and public sacrifices are not even allowed. The development direction of the entire social system here is aimed at overthrowing theology.
Overthrowing theology is most likely not the purpose of the Phoenix King, but an inevitable trend after universal education, because with knowledge, people will question and explore things that originally seemed very reasonable, and the foundation of religion will be crushed bit by bit. .
Liv left a few magic notes and left, and the rest of the small team also ran away.
Olan did not continue to run the prop shop. He still had a lot to digest.
The store was not transferred out, but the first floor was rented out to a textile manufacturer at a low price, which could offset some of the taxes on the decommissioning of the store. If you want to use it in the future, you won't have to buy a house temporarily.
If a big project is launched in a few years, it may be more cost-effective to sell the business and then buy it, provided that it can be purchased.
Although the Wangting tree has grown bigger and bigger, it has gradually been unable to keep up with the demand for housing. According to figures released by Wang Tingshu Real Estate Management Office, the total area of the first-level platform is now 0.8 square kilometers, and the remaining construction land is only 20,000 square meters. Even if the smallest small building occupies an area of about 40 square meters, it can only supply 500 households.
Official property prices have not changed, but actual transaction prices have been rising.
The official method is not to recognize private transactions, and if private transactions are not paid with land tax seeds, the house will turn into a pile of wood.
However, in actual operation, there are cases where extra money is paid privately.
Olan didn't quite understand these things. He only knew that the days of buying whatever you wanted were gone forever, so the shop had to stay to prevent it from being used as a studio in the future.
Living in the hut adjusts the state and stabilizes the second magic core.
In the second half of the third phase of the city defense magic array project, Olan didn't have much to do. His second magic core was also completed during this period, and the available magic power increased from the previous 10 min to around 30 min.
The state is very unstable. If you are not careful, the second magic core will disappear entirely, and only a small amount of magic power can be extracted from it.
Now use the rest period to consolidate, hoping to form automatic control of the body and maintain the second core.
According to current common knowledge, if your magic power level is 18 to 20 minte, you can call yourself a five-ring mage. I heard that in the human world, it only takes 15.
However, Olan is still used to the ancient classification method used by his teacher, and his magic power and spells must meet the standards, so he will have to be a fourth-ring mage for a long time.
In addition to stabilizing the second core during the retreat, learning is also very important.
It is very lucky to have a blood elf teacher. He can choose from enough spells.
Teacher Liv majored in the four departments of illusion, conjuration, enchantment, and evocation. She also assisted in learning the summoning and creation departments. She provided Oran with a total of 24 five-ring spells!
This is a completely unimaginable situation among non-immortal species. There are 24 five-ring spells, spanning six spell systems. Even if there are some similarities among them, it will take more than a hundred years to learn them at least, without counting the five-ring spells. accumulation.
Of course Olan can't do that. He majors in enchantment and conjuration. He can only use third-level attack spells for normal attacks.
Non-mages always think that evocation is powerful. After all, the special effects such as lightning and fireball are all included in it, but the enchantment and conjuration spells also have extremely powerful attack spells, such as the Law of Death!
Just like the name of the spell, this is a spell that can kill creatures that are not strong enough, and it even has no trajectory at all.
For those who are stronger than you, use the Law: Shock to stun the person and run away quickly. Of course, the premise is that they cannot be blocked by the magic shield.
Fighting is dangerous, it is better to study knowledge honestly.
Laws and Orders are just a branch of the Conjuration system, just like the relationship between the Fire system and Evocation.
There is no way, life is so short, and Olan cannot be greedy for more. Only after the magic power stabilizes at more than 20 min and the body is naturally optimized, can he save time and go back to complete the three-ring spells and enchantments. The fourth ring is enough to finish learning. .
Is there any way to speed up learning?
