Arcane Lord

Normally speaking, the warp beast should be a relatively common magical beast in the etheric plane. Even if it is brought to the main plane, it should not have too many unique features.

But now, the skeleton alone makes it possible to become a relatively new mithril alternative material. In other words, by studying the bones of leap beasts, mages are expected to find cheaper ways to make magic items.

And if you add in the delicious meat, it is entirely possible for leap beasts to become the most valuable economic species in the future. However, if you want to breed them on a large scale at a lower cost, you need something like the Ether Advance Base that can limit their free phase jumps. special environment.

Of course, it would be better if it could be domesticated. Even if the initial investment is a little larger, you can always enjoy the dividends later.

Thinking of this, Shado immediately asked Barry, "Do you know which adventurer teams here are better at hunting leap beasts?"

"If it's just about hunting, then most of the adventurers who appear here are pretty good at it. After entering the base, there's not much difference between warp beasts and ordinary beasts on the main plane. The key is how to lure them over."

Xia Duo then asked: "Then how to lure them over?"

"I do not know then."

Barry spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Generally, every three or five days, the master mage of the Seven Towers will drive a group of etheric creatures, including warp beasts, from outside into the base. All adventurers can hunt these prey freely. In addition to killing, only a very small number of adventurers can trap them by themselves, and most of these people also have the background of the Seven Towers."

That's it!

Xia Duo thought thoughtfully, and sure enough, only by walking around more can he find that the shadows of the Seven Towers are everywhere. Although the forward base here seems to be in the hands of the Austrian Law Federation, in fact it benefits more. Still seven towers.

What he originally thought was that if possible, it would be best to recruit a team of adventurers to capture and tame the warp beasts here for him. It would be a good result if he could figure out the taming technology or breed easy-to-raise varieties.

Now it seems that no matter what he wants to do, he may not be able to bypass the Seven Towers.

However, regardless of the fact that the skeleton of the leap beast could be used as a substitute for mithril, it was also necessary to set up a small breeding farm here just to make it easier to eat meat.

As for whether the Seven Towers will be aware of the breeding potential of the leap beasts, Xia Duo believes that this is not a problem. If the leap beast skeletons cannot become a substitute for mithril, even if the Seven Towers also participate in the domestication and breeding, it will be nothing more than too much. Just a few meat factories.

And if the Leap Beast skeleton really has the potential to replace mithril, the participation of Seven Towers can better ensure that magic items made with this new material can appear on the market normally in the future.

In layman's terms, the Seven Towers are so powerful that it is impossible for Xia Duo to circumvent their exclusive use of this new material of great strategic value. It cannot be circumvented in any sense.

In addition, if this new material is really possible, then the pressure on the elf side will probably not be small, and there must be a tall person in front.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo had a vague plan in his mind.

Next, he asked about some other items in Barry's stall, such as warp beast skins, which were rarely seen in other stalls.

According to Barry, this kind of leather is a natural protective material. Even without any special processing, just made into leather armor and worn on the body, or even directly draped on the body, it can play a very good protective role.

Especially when facing etheric creatures that use psychic attacks or force field spells as their main means of attack, it can be said to be "take it from that one, use it with that one"!

Valley

At this stage, there are very few warp hides for sale on the market, and most of them are internally digested by adventurers. The warp hides on Bally's side are more of a display, or an advertisement to attract people to stop and ask.

This is how Xia Duo was attracted.

In addition to leap beasts, the adventurers here at the Ether Advance Base are not able to stably hunt other ether creatures. In this regard, the ether creatures driven over by the people from the Seven Towers are mostly flesh and blood, and the majority of them are leap beasts.

On the other hand, it is naturally too weak. If a group of ordinary people were to hunt twisted phantoms, how would they be armed?

First of all, the psychic amulet is essential, and secondly, the psychic attack spell scroll, or other corresponding magic items.

And judging from the flexibility of ordinary people's manipulation of magic items, unless they can kill instantly with one blow, when the twisted phantom reacts, no matter how many ordinary people there are, no matter how good the equipment is, it won't be enough to kill them.

According to Sha Duo's estimation, all the adventurers in the Aether Forward Base now would not be able to kill a single twisted phantom.

Therefore, even though he had a good conversation with the stall owner named Barry in front of him, he did not ask him about the core of the twisted phantom.

Generally speaking, except for high-level mages who have prepared in advance, everyone else will die when encountering the twisted phantom.

Xia Duo is not prepared to let ordinary people use their lives to pile up one or two twisted phantom cores.

However, the core of the twisted phantom is ectoplasm, but the ectoplasm is not necessarily the core of the twisted phantom. It is only because the core will definitely drop after killing the twisted phantom that it is easy to confuse the two.

Now that the etheric forward base has been opened for some time, Sha Duo has long known about the spiritual material other than the twisted phantom core.

Any etheric creature, including warp beasts, may drop ectoplasm materials, and most of them take the form of a multi-faceted crystal ball, similar to the twisted phantom core, the only difference is in the number of facets.

However, the Twisted Phantom Core will definitely drop when you kill the Twisted Phantom. However, you can only rely on luck to obtain the spiritual essence from killing the warping beasts. If you are lucky, you can drop it by killing one or two. If you are not lucky, you may not encounter it in your life.

For the time being, although Xia Duo had heard that there were spiritual materials obtained from killing leap beasts, he had not heard that there were any rules to follow.

He speculated that it might have something to do with intelligence. People with higher intelligence may have higher explosion rates, but this was just speculation. Only when the breeding farm was established would there be a chance to systematically verify it.

He had a vague feeling in his heart. If it was verified to be true, it would mean that for every additional spiritual material, one more intelligent life would be lost.

He could even imagine that some extreme mages might study killing people to steal souls in order to more conveniently obtain ectoplasm (not just humans, but also common and easy-to-obtain intelligent creatures such as dwarves, elves, and gnomes) .

For these possible situations, Xia Duo just feels helpless. The only thing he can control is his own three-acre land. Even within his own territory, he can't guarantee that they will never happen. Evil mage.

Human nature has a noble and kind side, as well as a despicable and evil side. It is impossible for him to control people's hearts. Even if he could, he would not do it.

All he can do is to continuously promote order in Daxia, guide people to be good, and at the same time increase the intensity of crackdowns on criminal violations, especially the criminal behavior of spellcasters, which is the top priority.
