The northern wilderness.
It's midsummer. Although Zhenbei city is located in the north of the mainland, the weather has also become very hot. Su Lun is lying in the room at this time. Two small wind elements act as electric fans. The small wind is blowing, and a fruit tray is placed on the table next to him.
There are all kinds of fresh and juicy fruits in the fruit tray. Just looking at them makes people's appetite increase greatly. Suellen is lying in a rocking chair. Angela and Anne, two little maids, one massages his lower legs and the other massages his shoulders. Chris sat aside, picked up a charming cherry, put it in her mouth, and then fed it to Suellen.
She opened her mouth and ate the cherry. She took Chris in her arms and took a bite. Su Lun sighed in her heart that this is life.
During this period of time, the development of Zhenbei city has been very good. It is precisely because of this that Su Lun has the heart to take a break and enjoy the extravagant life of feudal aristocrats for a while.
"Lord, there is an urgent military situation." just when Su Lun was enjoying the life of top salted fish, a bodyguard reported outside the door.
"Come in," sullen said lazily. Angela and Annie's massage is so comfortable that his whole body feels soft and relaxed.
"Sir, a large-scale battle has taken place in the northern LOTAS mountains. It is speculated that the two sides of the battle are powerful Warcraft."
"Are you sure what Warcraft it is?" Suellen asked.
"The reconnaissance battalion has sent someone to investigate. So far, no news has come."
"I see," said Suellen, waving his hand. The news of such high-level Warcraft has been found several times during this time. Su Lun is also a little strange. After entering this year, those high-level Warcraft on the northern wasteland seem to have entered an active period.
In general, high-level Warcraft have their own territory. They will divide their own territory. Usually, these high-level Warcraft will not easily leave their territory. Now there are continuous high-level Warcraft fights in a short time. In addition, Su Lun found that it is not just Warcraft when building Jinghu city last time, Even the wild animals began to agitate.
Winter wolves rarely appear here in the North Town, but there were five last time. Even the troops on patrol often reported that wild animals attacked the territory, which seems very abnormal to Su Lun. Generally, wild animals will not attack humans, especially human troops.
Usually, those wild animals hide from the human army, and such attacks on the territory rarely occur, unless there is a lack of food in winter, and the hungry wild animals have no other choice, and then attack the territory to get food.
Now it's summer. The northern wasteland is the most lush period of plants. The water and grass are abundant and the wild animals multiply. It's the most abundant period of food in a year. At this time, the wild animals won't provoke humans, but now it happens that the wild animals attack the territory.
Suellen thought for a while without any clue. She was a little upset. After greeting Chris, Suellen went to the laboratory to find Hathaway. If anyone in the territory has the most knowledge, it is estimated that Hathaway is the one, and Karina and grace are worse.
When she came to the laboratory, Hathaway was drawing on the experimental table. Su Lun took a look. The drawings were rock magic statues of different shapes. The rock magic statues on these drawings were divided into various parts, and the composition and runes on them were also different.
At the same time, there are some magic images that sulun has not seen, which should be recorded in the books obtained by sulun from the necromancer last time.
"What kind of magic statue is this?" Su Lun asked curiously. The magic figures on the drawings in front of them are very different from the rock magic figures. They don't have the heavy feeling of the rock magic figures. On the contrary, they have smooth lines and look very flexible. Their hands are sharp claws and have a pair of wings.
"This is a stone statue, a ghost statue," Hathaway explained.
"This kind of magic image is a variant of the rock magic image. Different from the ordinary stone magic image, the stone ghost image has the ability to fly, and has no weakness of slow action of the ordinary rock magic image. The moving speed of the stone ghost is very flexible."
"Can they fly?" sullen asked in surprise.
"Yes, they belong to flying demons." Hathaway nodded. "And this kind of demons is very different from ordinary rock demons."
"Ordinary rock magic statues are not made as professional combat units. Rock magic statues made by wizards are multi-functional magic statues. They can help the master work at ordinary times and fight at critical moments. Unlike this kind of stone ghost statues, they are completely made for combat, so they are also called combat magic statues."
"Battle demons? How about their combat effectiveness?" Su Lun said with great interest.
"Not bad. The attack power is close to the rock magic image, and the defense should be lower. If you fight against the rock magic image, no one on both sides can do anything. If you face the Obsidian magic image, the stone ghost image is not an opponent, but this kind of magic image was designed to face the air units at the beginning."
Hearing Hathaway's explanation, Su Lun also understood the characteristics of this kind of stone ghost statue. First, the cost is higher than that of ordinary rock ghost statue and lower than that of obsidian ghost statue. Second, the attack power of stone ghost statue is OK, and the energy consumption is also low. It will be consumed only when activated. The stone ghost in dormant state is like an ordinary stone statue and does not consume energy. Third, it is fighting in the air, This is also the original intention of the study of stone statues, ghosts and demons.
Ordinary magic statues, from clay magic statues to rock magic statues, and then to steel magic statues, basically have no ability to fight in the air. They only have them after special modification, and stone ghost statues are specially used to deal with air enemies.
Most wizard schools have the technology of ordinary magic image, but there is a great difference after modifying the basic magic image in the later stage. Each school has its own magic image production technology.
Like the armor magic statue, this kind of magic statue looks like a knight plate armor. It is flexible and fast, and the cost is lower than the rock magic statue. There is also the skeleton magic statue, which is lower.
The stone ghost statue is a special magic statue in the school of necromancer. The cost of this kind of magic statue is only half of that of obsidian magic statue. At the same time, it also uses some techniques in some necromancer knowledge.
Because obsidian is used as the main body, stone statues, ghosts and demons have high spell resistance and physical resistance.
"We now have Eagle banshees, stone statues and ghost statues. The demand is not strong temporarily, but they can be used as technical reserves." Su Lun thought for a while and said.
"I know, I'm only going to make a few and put them on the roof of the castle. Once someone invades from above, they will wake up and attack at the first time," Hathaway nodded.
"By the way, what's the matter with you coming to me this time?" asked Hathaway.
Sulun said discontentedly, "can't I come to see you?"
"Ha ha." Hathaway rolled her eyes at Suellen.
"Well, well, I admit that I have something to do with you, but I just came by. I came to see you specially," sullen stressed.
Miss Hathaway looked at Suellen without speaking. Her expression was like saying, do you think I'll believe it? scumbag
"Something has happened in the territory recently. I want to ask you if you know the reason." Su Lun pretended not to see her expression and cut off the topic.
"What's the problem?" said Hathaway.
"There have been many beasts attacking the army and slaves in the territory these days. It's not the season of lack of food in winter. They shouldn't have this situation. The soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion reported that they have detected several high-level Warcraft battles during this time..."
"I don't think it's normal on the wasteland these days," sullen said in confusion.
"It's really abnormal." Hathaway nodded. "Maybe you haven't felt it yet. Maybe it's because you're not a wizard. During this time, I found that the element concentration in the north town territory began to increase slowly."
"And the element energy is also a little disordered. I think there should be some connection between these things."
"What connection?"
"I wonder if you've ever heard of elemental tides?" Hathaway said, taking off her operating glasses on the bridge of her nose.
Su Lun frowned: "element tide? What's that?"
"Elemental tide is a kind of statement about the periodic state of elemental energy change found by wizards, which involves a lot of advanced knowledge and is difficult to understand without systematic learning." Hathaway's expression that your IQ is very low and I can't explain it to you makes SULEN's brain jump.
"Tell me," said Suellen, trying to resist the urge to hit her.
"Well," Hathaway shrugged and continued, "you should know that the place where we live now is called the plane in wizard theory. There are many planes in the multiverse."
"Some planes are in that plane state, wrapped with a layer of membrane for protection, some planes are in the state of a planet, and some half planes, etc. the original birthplace of all these planes is the source sea, and some people call it ether."
"The source sea is boundless, filled with the most primitive energy. The energy in the multiverse is diffused from the source sea."
"That is to say, the elemental energy now shrouded around us originated from the source sea."
"As for the element tide, a simple analogy. Take the source sea as an ocean, which is moving all the time. You know, the sea also has rising tide and falling tide. These are natural phenomena."
"Then the source sea, as an energy ocean, has the same ebb and flow time as the sea, and this energy ebb and flow is called the elemental tide by wizards."
"After the ordinary sea tide, the sea level rises and drowns the coast, but the element tide is different. It rises with energy. The rise of source sea energy directly drives the rise of energy in the multiverse."
