Arcane Lord

Sha Duo picked up Tara Fu at Hengchun Square, and then the two walked to the Tower of Time on the research floor. During this process, Sha Duo also took the opportunity to introduce the basic situation of the floating city to Tara Fu.

“What we just passed through is the public area, which can also be called the commercial area. It mainly accommodates various commercial and public institutions. Now we are heading to the education area.

"Tarafu, you know that the floating city itself is a huge sphere, and the education area is located further inside. However, most of it is still empty. The current total population of Daxia Territory cannot support a school of this size. "

Xia Duo did not hide his emphasis and expectations on education. After quickly walking through the education area, he arrived at the destination of his trip——

research area.

Apart from the public areas, this is the most popular area in the floating city.

As the number of new mages in the Tower of Time increases day by day, it is difficult for the Tower of Time as a mage tower to support such a large number of new mages at the same time to carry out various magical activities.

Most of the larger independent research laboratories have been relocated to the research area of ​​the Floating City, and the Tower of Time has replaced them with more standard laboratories.

The tower spirit, learning machine, spiritual network, etc. are all used as usual, and there is no one who doesn't want to move. After all, even if the space inside the Tower of Time is extended, it is still less cramped and far less spacious than the floating city.

Not to mention some sophisticated magic experiments, the conditions of the laboratory built by the Tower of Time a long time ago are not as good as the standard laboratory of the floating city built recently.

Basically, as long as it is an independent research laboratory that wants to pursue something in the field of magic, not only will it not resist moving to the floating city, but it will actively seek relocation opportunities.

After all, the number of laboratories in the floating city is limited, and those who arrive first can choose their location first. There are not many differences in the standard laboratories themselves, but it is difficult to achieve completely consistent locations of the laboratories.

Being closer to the Tower of Time makes it easier to meet old friends, and it is also convenient to go to Savile Town through the portal in the Tower of Time.

If you are closer to the central passage, you can easily go to the public floor, play games, or go to the Codex Square in Linshui Town through the portal there.

Or if you prefer a quieter place, you can choose a more remote location to avoid being disturbed as much as possible.

In addition, there are those who focus on the surrounding environment and consider the distribution of peers in the future. In short, not everyone is willing to stay together.

Xia Duo tried his best to satisfy these different options. Although the standard laboratory was built at a specific location, it was called a standard laboratory because many standards were set during the construction, one of which was movable.

During the construction of the floating city, many physical Mythra interfaces were left in the research area. In order to standardize and control the energy use in the research area, the standard laboratory can only link these physical interfaces and does not interact with the external magic network. Directly related.

This makes these standard laboratories themselves a relatively independent existence, similar to quasi-magical items that are not linked to the magic network.

The analogy of using electric meters is that the Tower of Time prohibits independent research laboratories from setting up private power grids. All consumption in the laboratory can only be through the official circuits of the Tower of Time and use official electric meters.

Of course, this kind of involvement is not something that comes out of the blue, and the main purpose is not to restrict the laboratory. On the contrary, it can be used as a standard for the laboratory, and it naturally has the important significance of its existence as a standard.

Although the external magic network is convenient, it can also be easily "cut off" by others, not to mention the influence between laboratories. What the laboratory needs most is a stable environment.

If magic network anomalies appear at every turn, then how can this laboratory be used?

This is the main reason. Regulating energy use is another angle. The research area may not only have laboratories. Other magical buildings also need to pass the Mythra function, but there are not many restrictions on the link to the magic network. The mystery lock itself There are limitations.

The benefits of standard laboratories are not only for users, but also for Shaduo. Once the decision is made to open the new floating city in the future, these standard laboratories can be moved directly there in an almost intact state.

There is no need to build it again.

Therefore, even though most of the infrastructure construction in Chang'an City has been stopped, the construction of standard laboratories has not stopped, but has slowed down slightly due to the shortage of manpower.

…

Sha Duo introduced the various settings of the research area to Tarafu all the way, and unknowingly walked to the Tower of Time. To be honest, it is somewhat inconsistent to put the simple shape of the Tower of Time in a more modern place like the research area. feel.

But it is not easy to transform the Tower of Time. It is okay to repair the interior, but it will be more laborious to modify the appearance. Of course, it is still possible to change the color, but even if the shape is changed, its alternative nature can be seen at a glance. .

However, the magical aura it emits is real and can be felt even from a long distance away. Moreover, this aura is not only in the main plane, but also extends to the etheric plane and even the shadow plane. It can be called a full-scale flavor. No dead angle protection.

The Tower of Time was moved to the Floating City before Shado visited Calimshan. Taraf had also visited the Tower of Time in the past, but he had never approached the Tower of Time from the outside.

With Talaf's knowledge, at this moment he couldn't help but be surprised by the most powerful magical creation in Netheril before the birth of this floating city.

Before the birth of the Floating City, the Tower of Time was indeed the highest-standard mage tower in Netheril. It was not necessarily the most powerful, but even if it was not the most powerful, its majestic and thick aura also showed that it was different from the ordinary. The powerful nature of the million-level mage tower is completely different.

However, Tarafu is well-informed, and since he has seen the floating city, he will not be shocked by a mage tower. It is very rare to be slightly surprised.

"Tarafu, this is my home, please!"

Following Xia Duo's invitation, a teleportation gate with solid spiritual light appeared on the surface of the Tower of Time. At this time, it was time to receive guests. Shaduo did not use the teleportation gate of the Tower of Time itself, but asked the floating city to open a teleportation gate. Connecting the inside and outside of the Tower of Time.

After all, the Tower of Time portal's deep-sea immersion and near-fainting experience is really not suitable for Tarafu to use. Of course, the portal itself also has its own significance, which is to be able to judge the threat level of the person passing through, whether it is carrying dangerous goods, etc. wait.

Now that the Tower of Time is parked inside the floating city, there is no need to be too nervous, and he also believes that Tarafu will not be so unwise to cause destruction in his lair.

The place behind the portal was not somewhere else, but the rest room of the Tower of Time. On the way to the Tower of Time, Shado saw that Tarafu was not in good condition, so he temporarily changed his itinerary.

The original meeting was changed to a rest, and he even thoughtfully created a rich wind element environment in the lounge to speed up Tarafu's recovery.
