Arcane Lord

With Xia Duo's current magical attainments, the inspection and sorting work of the watch tower is basically not difficult for him. The key is that the process is relatively cumbersome.

But if it were done by an ordinary high-level mage, it might be possible, but the time would be dozens of times longer than Xia Duo's, or even more.

It can be seen that the construction of any mage tower is not an easy task, which is worthy of its starting cost of one million.

After cooking some bacon and vegetable porridge and filling his stomach in a hurry, Xia Duo continued to devote himself to the analysis of the Blazing Sun Array.

The ninth layer of the Magic Network designed by the Blazing Sun Array is an area that Sha Duo has never directly touched. It is basically unrealistic to complete the analysis in less than a day like the Energy Core Array.

Fortunately, after inspection, the energy core array of the Watch Tower does not have any traps or back-ups, and the Blazing Sun Array most likely will not either.

After all, as long as Xia Duo thinks about it, he can cut off the energy supply of the Blazing Sun Array at any time. No matter what traps or back-ups there are, just relying on his own connection with the magic network, he can only have the power of one shot at most.

Even if this power is as high as level 9, it is difficult to achieve much results inside the mage tower.

Of course, there will be damage and losses, but as long as it doesn't hurt Xia Duo, it means nothing. The difference between saving people and losing land and saving land and losing people also applies here.

However, although the Watchtower was taken over by Shado, it was not fully accepted until it was thoroughly inspected.

After the Blazing Sun Array, there are other arrays with various functional systems!

Even non-magic net parts, such as whether the tower is damaged, whether there are hidden injuries, etc.

After all, this is not a new mage tower that I personally designed and participated in the construction of, but a second-hand mage tower given by others.

On Earth, buying a second-hand car requires comprehensive inspection, and getting a Mage Tower requires comprehensive inspection and investigation.

Even if it is a gift from an acquaintance, there are still necessary procedures to follow.

Xia Duo believed that if other mages had the opportunity to receive a mage tower as a gift, they would definitely conduct a comprehensive inspection of such a large object that can be used to settle down.

…

Time passed by in a hurry, and soon the third day came - the day agreed by Sha Duo, Rodit and others.

In the past whole day, of course, the analysis of the Blazing Sun Array had not been completed. Sha Duo had come into contact with the Elemental Pool and Energy Pool Array before. It was a coincidence that he had never come into contact with the Blazing Sun Array before.

Moreover, this magic circle is as high as 9 levels, and it takes more time to convert low-level elements. As for whether it is a triple magic circle, that is secondary.

Of course, Xia Duo's research this day was not fruitless. At least he confirmed that the relevant information on watch tower maintenance in the watch tower library was true.

Putting aside other aspects, he estimated that the Blazing Sun Array alone would need to be maintained once a month and the energy buffer core, which was the arcane crystal, needed to be replaced.

The arcane crystal alone accounts for most of the annual maintenance allocation of 100,000 gold coins. (The market price of Aoneng crystal is around 5,000)

Fortunately, Sha Duo's current arcane fire can provide almost one-tenth of the surplus of a standard arcane crystal every day. When he first advanced to the arcanist level, he would have to save at least one standard arcana crystal. The first half of the year.

Arcane crystals can be said to be a trump card that any arcanist will try to accumulate as much as possible. According to this consumption method, even senior arcanists may not be able to withstand it.

Without the subsidy from Severington Council, Chateau would rather turn off the "light bulbs" outside right now.

But if there is a subsidy, that is another matter. What Master Steven said before leaving is that the parliamentary subsidy can cover the maintenance of the entire watchtower, which is not entirely a comforting word.

If done properly, you can even make a lot of profit!

The most direct operation is of course to reduce the power of the "light bulb" outside, so that the blazing sun array does not need to be in a high output state for a long time, and the maintenance cost will be greatly reduced.

But the Severnton Council is not stupid. Maybe when the Watchtower is in the hands of the princess, it can still defraud subsidies like this, but in the hands of Xia Duo and Niya, it may not be so cheap.

Xia Duo is not ready to use this method to defraud subsidies yet. He plans to use some more conventional methods to reduce maintenance costs.

Such as regular inspection, regular use, and even optimizing the efficiency of the magic circle in energy transmission, including magic principles or engineering processes.

While waiting for the arrival of Rodit and others, Shado continued to analyze the Blazing Sun Array and began to plan the corresponding improvement plan for the watch tower.

However, there is currently a more pressing issue before him, and that is - the maintenance of the Blazing Sun Array this month.

It is now less than ten days before the end of the month, which means that Xia Duo needs to complete the analysis of the Blazing Sun Array and complete the maintenance within ten days.

Of course, it is possible to maintain it without completing the analysis work, but after all, this was someone else's territory before, so I will always be a little worried.

Ten days of maintenance is relatively intense. Although due to the existence of the triple magic circle, the maintenance work can be delayed for up to two months, it still needs to be done.

It's a pity that the apprentices in the Tower of Time haven't grown up yet. Otherwise, it would be great to randomly assign a few apprentices who have become high-level mages and call it "practical training"!

Unfortunately, apart from himself, the only people in the Tower of Time who have the ability to maintain the Blazing Sun Array are Niya, Aibok and Depak.

Niya didn't even take over the Watchtower, and she probably wasn't willing to waste time on maintaining it; Aiboike, who was entrusted by him, was busy repairing the magic network outside the Tower of Time!

As for Depak, after all, he had just become a high-level mage. Although he was very experienced in making magic items, he had also participated in the maintenance of the Tower of Time many times.

However, the maintenance of the Blazing Sun Array is not as good as the maintenance of the Tower of Time. It can be broken down into small tasks that best suit personal abilities under the distribution and command of the tower spirit. Xia Duozhen is worried that Depak will blow up the maintenance of the Blazing Sun Array.

Only he can do it himself.

"I'm still working hard!"

Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh. At the same time, in his heart, he became even more uninterested in the next exploration of the ruins.

But the existence of the ruins he is interested in also has a time limit. The overlapping state of the planes has shown signs of separation. Maybe one day, this ruins will completely collapse.

Therefore, we must seize the time to inspect, test, and research.

Compared with before, after becoming a senior arcanist, I can say that I have a lot more time, but I can't hold on to many things at the same time!

Just as he was thinking about it, Rodit's message requesting the Watchtower to transmit the magic circle's access key finally arrived. Xia Duo set it up and quickly sent it.

The sooner you complete the agreement to explore the ruins, the sooner you can do your own thing.
