I am a god in another world

When the elemental shells happen to hit those living bone towers, the black fog in the surrounding area of ​​hundreds of meters will even disappear, exposing everything to the city defense maze.

Until the skeleton army covers this place with new living bone towers, otherwise this place will be a forbidden place for the undead.

Among them, the most lethal is naturally the holy light shells composed of positive energy, which will instantly make all the ordinary undead at the hit point fall down.

As for why there are five types instead of six, the elemental cannons that fire negative energy shells are naturally not allowed to be used.

These negative energy shells not only do not cause any damage to the undead, but on the contrary, they are healing them.

But soon, the black fog surged up and submerged everything around, including the various elements fired by the elemental bombardment cannon.

Only the sound of their fighting below can be heard vaguely, which only lasts for a short time and then disappears.

Those high-level elements were absolutely powerful weapons against ordinary undeads, and they could easily kill a few of them, but they were obviously not strong enough against Death Rangers and Violent Winds, and they were torn into pieces in minutes.

The elemental bombardment can only have a certain slowing effect on them, and the black fog still advanced towards Moshantyr City at a slow but firm pace.

Gavin was a little stunned when he saw the elemental bombardment cannons that were killing everyone. "Moshantir City actually has such a cross-era weapon?"

"What's so strange about this?" Felanxini only took a glance and figured out the principle of these elemental bombardment cannons. She explained, "This is just an extended application of the city defense maze. It looks unique, but it's just an element concentrator that shoots out highly concentrated elements, causing explosions and summoning effects.

Compared to the energy cannons on the floating city of the Netheril Empire, they are just a group of low-profile versions. The energy cannons powered by the Miser energy core can directly bombard targets more than ten kilometers away, and one shot can easily destroy a village."

Since there are elemental energy cannons, why bother playing with kinetic cannons?

It's not that there are no high-end weapons in the Feren plane, but I was ignorant before.

Gavin, who adjusted his mind instantly, asked repeatedly: "Teacher, can you develop and manufacture this kind of elemental cannon?"

Felanxini looked down on this kind of elemental bombardment cannon, but he did.

With this thing, install it on the building-type chariot, and then cover it with a layer of armor, it will be the original version of the armed personnel carrier.

Feilanxini thought about it for a while and said, "It's a bit difficult, but there is a way to think about it. The city defense version is relatively easy. Even if there is no city defense maze, you can also build elemental magic towers and use them as elemental energy gathering tools, and install bombardment launchers on them.

There is no need for the mobile version. If you have the energy, you might as well build golems directly and install elemental launchers on them. They will not only have powerful long-range attack capabilities, but also have good melee capabilities."

"That makes sense." Gavin nodded repeatedly. Limited by his own knowledge and experience, many of his innovative ideas will think about modern scientific and technological weapons. After all, the information in another society is relatively developed. Even if you have never seen many things, you can get them through various channels.

Furen's magic is different. Let alone those melee professions, even many spellcasters, even if they become legends, are just a drop in the bucket in the ocean of the secrets of this world.

Even due to the changes of the times, devastating wars and other reasons, many knowledge gaps have been caused.

For example, many legendary wizards have only a vague understanding of the floating cities of the Netheril Empire, and many things exist in conjecture.

Those floating city ruins are extremely dangerous places even for legendary wizards. They dare not easily venture into them. Only those adventurers who know nothing about them will foolishly drill into them. Adventurers who come out with the treasures of the Netheril Empire are rare, and there are countless souls in the ruins.

And Felanxini is the most orthodox arcane master. When she solves a problem, the first thing she thinks of is the native methods of Faerun, and the knowledge she has is beyond imagination.

Gavin asked in surprise: "Teacher, you won't tell me that you are also proficient in the manufacture of golems?"

Golems are also known as constructed creatures. As the name suggests, they are creatures formed by the assembly of matter.

Relatively speaking, the concept of constructed creatures is larger, and golems are just the most iconic type.

According to the different materials used to construct them, golems are also divided into many types. The most common ones are clay golems, flesh golems, steel golems and stone golems.

There are also alchemy golems made by alchemists using alchemical potions, dragon bone golems made of dragon bones, etc., which require more professional knowledge and ability.

The two adamantium golems at the gate of the palace of the Kingdom of Cormier are the ceiling of golems.

They are self-propelled war tools of Faerun, powerful servants and guardians of those powerful wizards. They are loyal to their manufacturers, do not know fatigue, hunger, aging and sleep, and are immune to all mental magic.

The only thing that limits their widespread popularity is probably their high cost. The cost of the cheapest clay golem is as high as hundreds of thousands, not to mention those golems that require unique materials, which are often not bought with money, and the wizards who can make them are also rare.

In addition, this is a magical world where the flesh can be sanctified, and it is not uncommon for those powerful warriors to tear up steel golems with their bare hands.

In addition, healing magic and resurrection magic are very popular. When powerful warriors die, a resurrection magic can solve the problem.

However, if a powerful golem is damaged, it can only be repaired by professionals with expensive alchemical materials. Once it is destroyed, it can only be reclaimed and re-refined.

And those spellcasters usually have their own alternatives. Take the Leatherman witches for example. They prefer to summon the elements of the inner planes. Their strength is not lower than that of most golems.

The most important thing is that it does not need maintenance at ordinary times. Even if it is damaged in battle, as long as it is not the elemental lord, others, even elemental elders, can have as many as you want. It depends on your own ability.

The Kingdom of Sel prefers to enslave the undead or summon demons for their own use.

For various reasons, golems are not as popular as imagined. Sometimes they are jokingly called the high-priced servants of mages. Compared with fighting, they are more engaged in some chores, such as carrying heavy objects.

Another important role is to serve as eternal guards, guarding the secret treasure house or some secret places of mages, making full use of their mechanical characteristics.

Felixini said proudly: "It is rare to find an arcane master who can't make golems. Do you think those floating cities are controlled by people?"

Gavin's mind moved, and he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Teacher, do you mean that golems are the main operators of floating cities?"

Thinking carefully, there is indeed nothing more suitable than these golems to perform repetitive labor, as for overly complex problems.

The command programs of golems are all input by their manufacturers. They can't execute overly complex command programs, but those disassembled and repetitive command programs are still no problem.

At most, golems with different commands can be combined, which can be regarded as using machines to replace manpower.

It is much easier to create a golem than to train a warrior of the same level, not to mention those magic apprentices.

"Yes." Felanxini nodded and said, "The floating city not only has a large number of golems to replace manpower, but also has a golem manufacturing factory that can mass-produce various types of golems quickly, greatly reducing the production cost of golems. It not only has service-type golems, but also golems specifically responsible for combat.

This kind of factory was top secret even in the Netheril Empire. Only arcane masters of a sufficient level could get involved. I have never had the opportunity to see it, let alone learn it.

But I heard that the mages of Halrua have inherited it, and the application rate of golems in their country is very high. It's a pity that I have never had the opportunity to visit and learn there."

"Even if I have the opportunity to visit, the chance of learning the construction of a golem factory from them is almost zero. This must be their secret." Gavin said with sparkling eyes, "In fact, there is another channel to learn it."

"You want to talk about those fallen floating cities, right?" Felanxini asked back.

"Yes." Gavin nodded and said, "It just so happens that I know the places where several floating cities fell."

"Oh? If you can really find those fallen floating cities, I would be interested in studying them." Felanshini was very interested.

No arcanist is not interested in floating cities, because this is the pinnacle of their profession, and a lot of the knowledge they need is for the floating city.

But this ultimate war machine can neither be built by one or two arcanists nor operated by a few people. It needs people from a city to build and operate it.

Since the collapse of the Netheril Empire, no one in this world can build floating cities, including the Kingdom of Halua, which is known as the authentic inheritor of the Netheril Empire. At best, it has the construction method of airships.

"As long as the teacher is interested, it will be easy. When I come back, I will send people to find and lock their location." Gavin felt that he had found the most correct direction to tap Felanshini's potential.

The Netheril Empire is also a great treasure, which is worth digging deeper, especially the floating city.

Because he knew that ten years later, this continent would be under the shadow of the floating city again.

The floating cities of the Netheril Empire did not all fall, and several of them were preserved intact by coincidence, and they have their own unique features. They will return one after another and try to re-dominate their territory.

Unfortunately, Gavin's territory will overlap with theirs in many places.

Therefore, it is very necessary to study the floating city, not only to learn from its usefulness, but also to find ways to deal with it.

"Are you sure you can find them? Don't believe in the so-called treasure maps. Many of them are used to fool people, or written by the survivors of the Netheril Empire based on their own memories.

At that time, the area of ​​the Anauroch Desert was not half as large as it is now, and the climate was not as extreme as it is now. If you search according to those treasure maps, you will only get lost in the vast sea of ​​sand.

Over the years, I don't know how many people have run into the sea of ​​sand to look for the remains of the floating city. Very few people can bring back news about the floating city, but countless people have been swallowed by the sea of ​​sand." Felanxini doubted whether Gavin could really find the remains of the floating city.

After all, the places where the floating cities fell in large numbers are all in the place now called the Anauroch Desert, also known as the Great Sea of ​​Sand.

This is because of the vast desert formed by magical factors and the extreme environment. Even the mages sometimes feel desperate.

Gavin said enthusiastically: "If we send outsiders into the Great Sand Sea, the chance of searching for the ruins of the floating city is very slim, but if we use the aborigines of the Great Sand Sea, it will save a lot of time and effort. I have I will integrate the plans related to conquering the Great Sand Sea with the search and research plan for the floating city ruins to lay a solid foundation for my teacher’s research.”

His words were not false. He did have his own long-term plan in the Aino Oak Desert.

Whether it's for the purpose of conquering the Rocklands or to confront the Zhentarim.

The former is because many monster tribes in the rocky area use the Great Sand Sea as a refuge. When powerful forces launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against them, they often choose to flee collectively to the Great Sand Sea and use the complex and changeable natural environment here to fight against them. Encirclement and suppression.

If this direction is not completely blocked, the difficulty of completely annihilating them will be greatly increased. Instead of following the example of the Xianglong Empire, they built the Great Wall on the border.

Gavin preferred to bring it under his rule and form a counter-siege to Rockland.

Previously, when he was forced to temporarily leave the Rocklands under pressure from the Zhentarim and choose a new territory to develop, Gavin had hesitated between the Valley and the Desert of Enor Oak.

It's just that the conditions there were too difficult and the initial investment required was too large. My capital at that time was limited and I couldn't support it. But now I have enough capital.

The latter is because the Zhentarim's largest trade route, the Black Road, is here. This trade route helps them connect the North of Faerûn and the Moon Sea region. They have developed a large number of man-made oases there and firmly control the ownership. In your own hands.

At its peak, this trade route once accounted for 80% of the Zhentarim's total trade volume. Even with the rise of the Zhentarim, they have become involved in more and more fields and businesses, and the proportion of the black road has gradually weakened. It has also been able to maintain more than 30% of the total trade volume.

If this trade route is disrupted, the blow to the Zhentarim will be severely affected, even if it is not fatal.

As time goes by, Gavin's hostility to the Zhentarim is no longer simply the hatred of slavery in his previous life, but also the conflict of interests in this life.

He wants to rise in the valley, and whether it is the Zhentarim or the Kingdom of Sembia, they are insurmountable competitors.

Conflicts of interest with them often mean resorting to all possible means.

Because this is their usual method of dealing with their enemies. If they are merciful to them, they will most likely suffer in the end.

In this way, searching for the floating city ruins of the Netheril Empire has become a point of interest in developing the Great Sand Sea. As long as something can be harvested from it, the investment cost in developing the Great Sand Sea can be recovered.

"We will discuss these studies later, and first consider how to deal with these undead enemies." Filancini pointed towards the bottom of the city wall.

Just as they were communicating, the defensive battle escalated again.

Thousands of crossbows in Moshantir City also joined the defense, but the power that this kind of shooting in the dark could exert was completely unknown.

At least it didn't have much impact on the advancement of the skeleton army.

Soon they were pushed under the city defense lock, where the two formed a state of anxiety.

When it was still five or six meters away from the city defense lock, it was difficult for the black mist to move forward.

Temporary magic arrays like living bone towers are far less powerful than permanent magic arrays like city defense locks.

At this time, a bloated zombie with a big belly and bloated body walked out of the darkness.

Under the illumination of positive energy, black smoke was sizzling all over their bodies. Before they had taken a few steps, they exploded, and thick black mist spread everywhere. It was highly compressed negative energy.

Even if the positive energy is neutralized, it will take some time.

Immediately, this desperate situation that ordinary undead could not overcome was completed. More self-destructing zombies swarmed along these passages to the front of the city defense mystery lock, and then exploded themselves.

The highly compressed negative energy immediately became highly corrosive to the city's defense locks, forming large holes that were large enough for most of the undead to flow in, including those living bone towers that blossomed from the inside.

At this time, Serge's red-robed mage's real killer move arrived.

A huge cone-shaped bone tower emerged from scratch and began to emerge bit by bit.

Different from those improvised living bone towers, this bone tower is extremely particular in terms of materials and construction methods.

Giant skeletons, dragon skeletons, giant beast skeletons, etc., are all large in size. There are as many as eight dragon heads alone, and each one must be an adult.

This is clearly a mage tower, a mage tower that can travel through shadows.

It was directly connected with those living bone towers and became the core of a huge spirit gathering array.

A huge black hole appeared directly in the sky, and a steady stream of negative energy rushed down, beginning to have a suppressive effect on the city's defense lock.

But what really plays a decisive role is Moshantir City itself.

A large amount of negative energy flowed out from the city and city walls, forming a faint black mist that refused to dissipate, forming a sheltered area that effectively blocked the city's defenses.

The Kingdom of Ser saw this opportunity to attack Moshantir City, obviously it had its own plans.

A bloody battle just took place here. The Leathermen were able to clean up the bodies, but the resentment and obsession left by the innocent souls who died here could not be dissipated. This power could be fully utilized as a medium to attack the city of Moshantil and to suppress the city defense maze that had the greatest restraint on them.
