Emperor of Arcane

The birth of the Hero Altar originated from the joint research of Matthew and many arcane masters in the Bay Territory.

They used the state of the soul of evil creatures, the preservation of residual souls and the maintenance of consciousness, many information and technologies from the ruins of the Kingdom of Idros, and the oriental secrets from Mozi and Mohism.

Many things were combined into one, and after many experiments and attempts, the birth of the Hero Altar was finally determined.

The video playback connected by the space channel gave a live broadcast to the big guys in the command center.

The statue representing the monument to the sacrificed heroes of the Bay Territory slowly exuded a bright breath, and dense and complicated magic array patterns emerged, constantly absorbing the surrounding mist.

The surging cold wind blew slowly.

It seemed that all kinds of phantoms appeared in the sky, outlining dense and distorted phantoms.

They seemed to be attracted by the absorbed power and couldn't wait to drill in.

For such changes, many commanders showed a little worry in their eyes.

Fortunately, the Bay Territory was very well prepared, outlining the flickering light magic array, which was the magic sealing array that everyone was very familiar with.

However, the magic sealing array that was used to seal and imprison has now become a defense and blocking.

Waves of cold breath spread.

More and more energy was transmitted, and incomplete shadows emerged from the hero altar.

They were the souls of the sacrificed personnel collected by Matthew.

Various incomplete gaps appeared on their bodies, and the power released by the soul completion array.

These souls began to recover gradually, and their bodies changed from the previous nothingness to become more solid, becoming no different from real people.

They quickly regained consciousness, the expressions on their faces gradually recovered, and soon recovered their memories.

They stared at the strange shadow in the sky, and suddenly a desire to kill and devour it emerged in their hearts.

Before they could take any action, the delicate light golden chain fell down and slowly wrapped around them.

The magic sealing chain seemed to suppress their power, but it had another function, which was to prevent the outside power from affecting them.

From the fact that they gradually came to their senses and prepared to communicate with the dragon warriors outside the array, it can be seen that the effect is indeed very obvious.

Zhang Fang, who was still somewhat incredulous, stared blankly at Ji Fan who was walking towards her with big strides, stretched out her hand, and shook it vigorously.

It was indeed a real feeling, and it was almost exactly the same as when she was alive.

However, there was also a special sense of nothingness, reminding her all the time that she no longer had flesh and blood.

Without waiting for Zhang Fang to react, Ji Fan, who came over, showed a bright smile, saluted her, and couldn't wait to say to her:

"Commander Zhang Fang, you slept for a month, which is a long time. How do you feel now? Is your head clear?"

Different changes, different feelings, the same communication and emotions, made Zhang Fang suddenly feel excited with tears in her eyes.

She bit her lip lightly, forcing herself not to think about other things. She still chose to believe in the territory as before, saluted as well, and then replied with a smile:

"I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time. I feel like moving around."

Ji Fan smiled and shook his head, pointing to the increasingly distorted figures outside, and continued expectantly:

"It's not the time yet. You need to train well."

The familiar feeling came back. Zhang Fang, who loved training very much, nodded impatiently and tried to move her body, as if she wanted to find the original feeling.

Ji Fan took out a slightly shiny light silver armor, with Yaya's head and the emblem of the Bay Territory carved in the middle of the armor.

The complex patterns constantly absorbed the free gray power around.

Zhang Fang reached out without hesitation, but found that the armor was not as heavy as she imagined, but very light.

After putting on the armor, the different sense of heaviness and heaviness made Zhang Fang feel down to earth.

Then she felt the warm power from the inside of the armor pass into her body, removing some of the coldness and making her feel like she was alive again.

"This is the Heroic Soul Armor, designed specifically for you. It can stabilize your consciousness and thinking, and strengthen your combat effectiveness."

"This is not something that can be maintained for a long time, just like the professional path that has been strengthened and promoted now."

"You need to explore in this area and cooperate with researchers to conduct research."

"According to the Lord's research, you can at least survive as long as you have in your lifetime."

"But during this time, you must work harder to grow and train, so as to gain stronger power and have a longer existence."

"Finally, the Lord will overcome the last difficulty, so that everyone can complete another reincarnation of a new life while preserving consciousness."

The Heroic Souls who woke up with Zhang Fang went from being confused and excited at the beginning to being frustrated and sad. After listening to Ji Fan's introduction and speech, they regained their calmness and expectations.

Especially when they saw the Lord telling them the story again through the magic video screen, the firm belief of the Gulf Territory warriors made them regain their composure.

"Ha, there was nothing to regret in the first place, but I didn't expect to have a new opportunity. Is there anything better than this?"

"That makes sense. I've received the compensation from my family. Who knows I'm still alive? The territory is so good to us."

"Hehe, the territory has chosen a new track for us. Doesn't that give us a chance?"

"The choice of first-mover advantage is sometimes much better than talent and hard work."

"Haha, we can train with confidence. I don't know if we need to eat and drink now?"

"If not, can we train all the time?"

"Well said, even if we can't reach the final shore and get another new start, we have at least tried our best and won't have any regrets."

"It's already very happy to see my son and daughter grow up healthily and make progress in their studies, so I will definitely live longer!"

"..."

Various discussions and exchanges gradually eased the somewhat dull atmosphere.

The heroes gradually came to their senses. Their thinking and personality did not change, and they soon began to act.

In particular, Zhang Fang, who had the strongest strength and willpower, was already communicating with Ji Fan, discussing his physical condition, various attributes, and the existence and situation of the enemy.

Ji Fan and other dragon warriors who were well prepared communicated with them patiently and recorded various information.

"From the perspective of physical strength, it should be weakened to 1/3 compared to when it was alive, but the recovery ability is very strong, and most injuries can be recovered."

"The movement speed has been improved, but it is related to energy consumption and has a closer relationship with intelligence attributes."

"There is an upper limit to the absorption and accumulation of energy. Repeated consumption and absorption can slowly increase the upper limit."

"Various combat skills are still retained, but they are not suitable for the current body."

"For the operation of various magic equipment and props, you can still use them skillfully..."

"For the use of magic props and scrolls, you need to consume the same degree of power, and the power is also related to the ability to master."

"On the contrary, for the use of various potions and potions, you can have a more perfect absorption effect, and the cooling time will be shortened a lot."

"..."

Various information gathered in Matthew's hands.

He licked the corner of his mouth slightly, constantly consuming the power of destiny, and exploring the road for these heroic souls in the Bay Territory.

Since it has been decided to let them take this path, they must be responsible to the end.

However, Matthew soon got a very interesting situation based on various information and feedback from the power of destiny.

Just as death and rebirth are completely different processes.

The channels for improving the power of the heroic soul have no obvious relationship with other professionals and the professional paths of their previous lives.

This means that they can choose to start from scratch.

And, considering their current bodies, the key is to absorb and accommodate more soul energy.

The feedback Matthew got mainly came from the two aspects of body and soul consciousness.

First, constantly strengthen the body, have higher strength and recovery ability, and become a physical existence similar to soul evil things.

Second, constantly improve the power of soul control and become a spellcaster similar to a lich.

There is no obvious boundary and distinction between the two. If the talent is enough, you can even advance in both directions.

However, unless there is a gifted existence, Matthew will not let them do this.

Even if they become souls, they still have a lifespan limit.

The urgency of improving their strength can also give them the motivation to become stronger.

Fortunately, Matthew is very experienced in this regard.

He spent 20 million fate power to create low-level to high-level professional paths for the heroes of the Gulf Territory, called "Dark Warrior" and "Shadow Master".

He made adaptive modifications to many similar skills and expertise.

The heroes of the Gulf Territory need to relearn, and at the same time accumulate more data and information to provide more accumulation for Matthew's subsequent transformation and development.

The construction of the first hero altar in the shadow plane was completed, and the heroes were successfully summoned again, allowing them to survive for a long time.

Next, the Gulf Territory will complete the construction of hero altars in various parts of the material plane.

After all, Matthew cannot release countless clones to collect souls in various battlefields in the Gulf Territory.

Fortunately, Matthew and the researchers of the Gulf Territory have long considered this point, and the function of preserving souls is installed in the new batch of combat armor.

By cleaning the battlefield, the soul collection device can be disassembled and sent to the nearby hero altar for temporary storage and stabilization.

Wait until the situation stabilizes or the battle is over.

Then they can be sent to the shadow plane to complete the rebirth ceremony of the transformation of the hero soul.

In addition, in order to make the heroes train harder, keep their minds focused and clear.

When their strength reaches a certain stage, or they complete the training tasks every day, the Gulf Lord will allow them to communicate with their relatives.

That's right, since they are not completely "dead", they still have consciousness.

Even if they can't meet their relatives in a short time, the Gulf Lord is willing to let them have a firmer belief and hope!

Considering the conditions and dangers of the actual situation.

If both parties want to meet, they have to work harder to improve their strength.

For such a surprise, all the heroes felt inexplicable expectations.

They accepted the reality in a very short time, and then worked hard to learn and train.

It seems that because of death once, the heroes' minds are more mature, their attention is more focused, and their learning speed and efficiency are faster than before.

For this situation, Matthew expressed affirmation, hoping that they will persevere and continue to work hard for the future of themselves and their loved ones.

The move of building new hero altars in various places in the Gulf Territory has also attracted the attention of many forces.

They are all speculating on the role of the hero altar and analyzing the plan of the Gulf Territory.

They want to communicate with the people of the Gulf Territory as before, and ask if the Gulf Territory has any new plans.

For their questions, the Gulf Territory did not give a positive answer this time, because the matter has not been settled.

However, they also gave hints in some aspects.

"If you want to follow us in the Gulf Territory this time, there is nothing wrong with it."

For such a hint similar to an explicit hint, the lords and nobles who thought they understood chose to "join" one after another.

Their thoughts were simple and thorough. The cost of building the hero altar was not particularly high, but it had a very obvious feature - it needed to be maintained by the leaders of the Bay.

This was enough to explain many problems!

Whether to follow the boss or not was clearly a matter of attitude.

Even if there was no gain, they were willing to pay this sum of money to show their position.

Of course, this was just superficial effort. Only they themselves knew more about the plots and ideas.

For more than a month.

Matthew stayed in the shadow plane and the underground world.

One was to accumulate data and improve the two professional paths.

The second was to improve strength and train various legendary spells.

The various creatures in the shadow plane naturally became Matthew's cleanup targets.

In the process of cleaning up these creatures, he found that in addition to physical creatures such as souls, he also found many creatures with flesh and blood.

These creatures live in this half plane, endure the erosion of soul power, and seem to have gradually adapted.

Matthew did not destroy it casually. After cleaning up many threatening legendary monsters, he let these creatures continue to survive.

Perhaps, these creatures living here have unexpected value.

Whether it is their body structure, absorption and adaptation to soul power, various organs that stimulate life force, and some hidden talents, they can provide considerable supplements to the database of the Gulf Territory.

Perhaps some of the substances or individuals can provide the Gulf Territory with new research ideas or the creation and invention of some new materials.

Maintaining the diversity of species and developing and cultivating their advantages have always been what the Gulf Territory does.

Targeted cultivation and optimization, and the construction of various resource points can better utilize land and resources.

The speed of cultivating talents in the Gulf Territory far exceeds that of other forces.

It is inseparable from the policy set by Matthew and the Gulf Territory that everyone can enjoy the fruits of development together.

It is also inseparable from the huge resources for cultivation and development!

There is also competition and pressure within the Gulf Territory.

But compared with other forces, internal consumption and waste have been reduced to an extremely low level.

With Matthew's "protection" and assistance, the Gulf Territory has made drastic "advances" in the shadow plane.

Various semi-automatic cities and fortresses were built, which could allow normal Gulf Territory soldiers and staff to survive in them.

The resulting resource improvement and advantage development not only allowed the Gulf Territory to continuously increase its control over the Shadow Demiplane, but also developed more resource points.

The biological resources in the Shadow Plane are relatively scarce, but various magical materials and mineral resources can be said to be very rich.

Three kinds of super rare metals alone have been discovered, and the output is not low.

The amazing benefits and gains made the Gulf Territory army quiet down in the underground world.

They developed silently and provided support to the drow elves who were shocked by the fierce battle.

Time passed day by day.

In a blink of an eye, it was December.

Facing the upcoming 135 years and the next increase in the upper limit of the material plane's strength.

Matthew had to leave the rapidly developing underground world and Shadow Demiplane and return to Gulf City.

The reason for coming back at this critical time is naturally because there are more important things to deal with.

Mordencan, who took a long breath, kept pointing at the huge magic image, turning out one tiny part after another and quickly placing them on it.

After a while, a very complete and huge city image appeared in front of Matthew and many commanders.

Looking at the floating city with clear markings of "living area", "experimental area", "weapon area", "combat area", "agricultural area", "production area" and other areas, most commanders widened their eyes in anticipation.

It can be seen that everyone still has a very deep impression and idea of ​​the meaning of the floating city.

Matthew was not particularly interested in this. He carefully studied the various functions of the floating city. Under the somewhat nervous gaze of Mordencan, he smiled and asked a question:

"For our Bay Territory, what is the positioning of the floating city?"

What is the positioning of the floating city?

Represents the crystallization of supreme technology?

Represents the wonder of the identity and majesty of the Great Archmage?

A beautiful place that countless people yearn for or admire?

Or is it an invincible super weapon destined to be invincible?

What kind of positioning determines the bias of its function.

What kind of bias represents the investment of various resources and the choice of various technologies.

Once these are determined, the complete manufacturing plan can be basically determined.

For this issue, Mordencan, the commander and the management staff had an enthusiastic and intense discussion.

Matthew just watched their "discussion" and looked forward to the burst of ideas and inspiration.

There is not only one floating city! (End of this chapter)
