Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

One and a half months later, when the Ionia expedition arrived at Xinfu Port and began its formal inspection and research, these kind-hearted monks and elders received a warm welcome from the locals immediately.

Subsequently, a grand symposium named Cultural Exchange, which was actually an art salon, was officially launched.

Through the Art Support Association, Lux invited the most humanistic artists in Demacia. At the exchange meeting hosted by Sona, these artists chatted happily with these Ionians through temporary translators.

Although the translation is actually relatively amateurish, the two parties occasionally fail to convey the meaning of the words during the exchange. However, after the exchange, both parties said that it was "very helpful" and "very rewarding", as if they could learn from others. The appearance of attacking jade.

As the master, except for appearing at the beginning of the exchange, Lux used to excuse her busy schedule at other times and only showed up in the morning and evening every day, and did not participate in the agenda at all - However, due to Sona, Now, Lux still knew the content of the exchange very well.

At first, Lux was worried that the communication was getting out of control, and asked Sona every day to learn about the situation, but the results she got were not interesting at all. To describe this communication in one sentence, it was a complete business exchange.

So, starting from the third day, Lux didn't pay much attention to their art salon. It was a pure waste of time!

And it turns out that this matter does not require too much attention.

Ten days later, without Lux having any idea what these guys were talking about, the enjoyable exchange between the host and guest ended, and Forsbarrow officially became Ionia's "partner".

The monks and elders who were psychologically satisfied said when they left that Ionia would export tea, spices, dyes and fabrics to Forsbarrow at a fair price. At the same time, Ionia would also accept the products produced by Forsbarrow. Fur and blue ocher.

After several respected monks and elders identified it, Forsbyro's fur and blue ocher were in line with the Way of Balance - who knows how they identified it.

In this way, a cross-cultural exchange began and ended in a unique and childish way. Although he experienced some twists and turns, Forsbarrow finally got what he wanted.

After the farce ended, Lux and Sona looked at each other speechlessly, feeling both happy and helpless. It was clear that everything was what they wanted, but they couldn't be happy no matter how much they thought about it.

These Ionians... are outrageous!

No matter how bizarre and frustrating the process is, the result is always good.

Before winter begins, Xinfu Port will welcome new merchants. In addition to Demacia's internal trade and northern trade, Fosbairo will have a third trade route. This not only means that Fosbairo Luo will have a broader trade space, which means that Forsbarrow has gradually got rid of its dependence on Demacia's internal trade. As long as there are no problems with maritime trade and northern trade, even if the confrontation on the Xiongdu side turns into War will not cut off Forsbyro's financial resources.

With the support of new financial resources, Lux feels more confident.

The scale of Xinfucheng and Xinfukang can be maximized, and children's education can be promoted among newly arrived immigrants. In addition, the second training session for clerks is about to be put on the agenda... Unknowingly, Lacus It felt a bit like scolding Fang Qiu in Zu'an.

Then the cold water of Kalya came at the right time.

"The study of the introduction to advanced elements should continue." Kalya's voice was like a devil's whisper, which made Lux's face instantly become bitter. "This time we can learn something with practical application value-such as elemental puppets."

……………………

Compared with the boring pure theoretical knowledge in the early stages of Introduction to Advanced Elements, Lux's course in the second half of the semester was undoubtedly much more interesting.

Although the theoretical knowledge is still overwhelming, it has some practical content - as Kalya said, in this part, Lux will start to learn the theory of elemental puppets.

Elemental puppets are a very important magical achievement of the Shurima Empire, including the monolith that bridges the void rift. Their essence is a giant elemental puppet made of pure elements, but this puppet is in the shape of a fortress suspended in mid-air. .

In Shurima, most experienced explorers have seen various elemental puppets in various ruins. These big guys have fixed programs. They rely on magic perception to find targets that enter the warning range, and as long as the target If they don't give a specific response immediately, they will attack them head-on as an intruder.

If you want to make a qualified elemental puppet, even the simplest one, you need a very solid theory of elemental magic. Therefore, the second half of the introduction to advanced elements is a process of learning and making elemental puppets until Lark When Si can complete a complete elemental puppet, her study will be completely over.

When Lux first learned that "as long as she has the ability to create elemental puppets, she can graduate successfully," she immediately thought of Porter One in Zaun New Port.

Is that kind of giant puppet that uses the Forbidden Demonic Tree as its body and limbs and is controlled by magic circuits considered an elemental puppet?

If that counts, then it won't take long for Lux to assemble one on the spot.

"That one can only be regarded as a help puppet, and it is still far away from the elemental puppet." Kalya decisively denied Lux's wishful thinking, "The most important meaning of the elemental puppet is automation!"

"Automation can't be achieved with magic circuits?"

"Of course it can't be achieved just through the magic circuit! Using the elemental corrosiveness of the pure element as a power source and cooperating with the magic circuit can make the elemental puppet act spontaneously!" Kalya snorted, "If you don't rely on the element of the pure element, Corrosive, the elemental puppet is destined to be a dead thing, something that requires human control to become active!"

"This is too difficult..." Lux understood what Kalya meant. After blinking her eyes, her tone was a little unbelievable, "Elemental erosion has chaotic properties, and it has a lot to do with the environment. If you want to Using the elemental corrosiveness of the pure element as a power source, wouldn't the elemental puppet be very unstable?"

"So you need advanced magic circuits such as energy storage circuits, oscillation circuits, magic appearance circuits, and anti-escape circuits." Kalya chuckled, "In addition, you need to master the control of at least one pure element and be able to control it according to your ideas. Magically shaping it - the elemental puppet was a score-pushing item in the original Ascended Person Qualification Examination, so naturally it cannot be simple."

Hearing this, Lux was already a little confused.

She knows the energy storage circuit, and she has barely mastered the oscillation circuit, but the magic appearance circuit and the anti-dissipation circuit...these two magic circuits, one can smoothly fill the entire magic creation with magic power, and the other can prevent the magic power from being filled with magic power. Escape requires the entire magic circuit of the elemental puppet to be drawn. Not to mention that Lux only barely understands these two magic circuits and cannot even be called mastery. Even if she truly masters these magic circuits, she wants to use them. It is also an extremely difficult task to paint a full elemental puppet without any problems.

Just thinking about it makes me feel sick.

Moreover, considering that there are often cross-interferences between multiple magic circuits, and that pure elements are difficult to process, it is foreseeable that it will take Lux a long time to complete the second half of the advanced element introduction. .

……………………

When everything goes according to plan, time always flies by.

For Lux, it seemed that she had just begun to learn the second half of the introduction to advanced elements, and winter had once again descended on Forsbarrow.

During this period, the first batch of merchant ships arrived at Xinfu Port. The Ionians hired ships from Bilgewater and sent a large amount of tea and fabrics (mainly silk). At the same time, they purchased a large amount from Forsbarrow. Both sides get what they need from furs and mountain spices.

Almost immediately after the Ionians left, the construction of Xinfu Port and Xinfu City basically came to an end. Although the Dharma Masters participated in the ashes throughout the process and the immigrants from Mithril City also continued to work hard for their new homes, Xinfu City is still a bit empty.

When winter came, Lux raised her head from her heavy studies and began to prepare for this year's winter lecture. She was surprised to find that she was facing a brand new problem - should the winter lecture be held in Forsbarrow or go to Conducted in Xinfu City.

Fosbairo is Lux's base, and New Fortune City will be the focus of Lax's work in the next few years. It seems that he can give speeches anywhere.

After thinking about it for a while, she decided to simply hold the winter lecture in Xinfu City and the spring lecture in Fosbello without any delay.

In this way, when the first heavy snow came, turning the northern border into a blanket of silver, Lux gave this year's winter speech in the central square of Xinfu City.

Since the residents of New Fortune City were either Dharma Protectors or immigrants from Mithral City, Lux lost some of her liveliness and became more sincere when preparing her speech.

As for Lux's speech, the residents of New Fortune City responded enthusiastically. They had just built their own homes with their own hands and began to try to integrate into the new order of Fortune Barrow. For them, this will It's a fresh start.

The long winter is coming, and unlike in the past, some residents of Forsbarrow and New Fucheng will start trying to cultivate hazelnuts this winter.

The artificial cultivation of hazelnut mushrooms is very smooth. Due to its relatively short growth cycle, as early as autumn, the Royal Master team has basically mastered the method of cultivating hazelnut mushrooms in a greenhouse - as long as the specific temperature and humidity are maintained and isolated. With extra sunlight and sufficient humus soil, these precious mountain products will grow and mature rapidly, and you can start picking them in just a dozen days!

Compared with fragrant red sage, the cultivation conditions of hazelnut mushroom are simpler. It does not require light and wind to produce stable production. The only problem is that it has strict requirements on humus soil. It can only be grown after nearby trees have died, mainly from fallen leaves. Only a well-formed, humus-rich soil can be used to cultivate hazelnut mushrooms, and as the hazelnut mushrooms grow, the humus soil will quickly become barren, and no matter how fertile the humus soil is, it can only grow one crop of hazelnut mushrooms at most.

For this reason, while trying to promote the cultivation of hazel antler, the Royal Guardian team also mobilized professional manpower and began to study whether humus soil could be artificially produced.

As long as there is humus soil, there will be an endless supply of hazelnut antler, and hazelnut antler, whether fresh or dried, is the top mountain delicacy. In the past, when the Ionians purchased hazelnut antler, they even They would exchange silk for equal weight of dried hazelnut antler, which shows how valuable hazelnut antler is!

Although with large-scale cultivation, the price of hazelnut mushrooms will inevitably decrease, due to its small size and light weight after drying, it can be carefully packaged and transported to various places in Runeterra by sea - and with people. Unlike the fragrant red sage that some people like and hate, hazelnut antler is a treasure that everyone likes. As long as the royal guards figure out how to make humus, the income level of the people of Forsbyro will rise to the next level!

At the beginning, the mages had no clue about the creation of humus. Even Fouquelin, who could speed up the process of plant life, could not make dead plants quickly decay into humus. Five groups of mages united to create humus. , racking your brains has yielded nothing.

However, by chance, a shadow-type mage saw the technical group of mage who was looking grimly in front of the humus soil. This guy who always had a sharp tongue used to say something strange, but it happened to happen that everyone was irritated. At the muzzle of the gun, a dialogue of "You can do it, you go ahead" started.

Under normal circumstances, the result of "You can do it, you go up" is "I can't do it, but I'm going to shout loudly", but surprisingly, this shadow-type mage is really capable of creating humus - plant death. The decay will be slow after that, but if there is shadow energy to help, the process will be much smoother.

So, the members of the five teams watched in stunned silence as this guy who rarely had a job because of his special ability easily let a dead tree rot and created a large area of ​​humus. After testing, the rot caused by shadow erosion was produced. Humus soil can be used for hazelnut cultivation!

The shadow caster, who was still a marginal figure before, suddenly became a hot commodity and became a specialized humus soil making machine, and this result was quickly reported to Lux.

After Lux learned that shadow energy could produce humus in batches, she immediately thought of the Shadow Realm.

There is an entrance to the Shadow Realm near Forsbarrow. If you use this passage, you can send the materials that need to be rotted into the Shadow Realm to artificially catalyze the decay to form humus, and then take it out for hazelnut cultivation...

Just do what you say, and under the supervision of Kalya and the others, Lux and the shadow-type mages once again opened the temporary passage to the shadow world, and then sent in some of the dead trees and dead leaves that made the humus.

Seven days later, they got a large pile of soft and sticky humus that exuded a decaying smell.

In this way, Fosbairo finally mastered a complete set of hazelnut cultivation processes from humus soil production to hazelnut planting and harvesting.

This winter, in Xinfucheng, the first wave of hazelnut mushroom cultivation will begin.

And this also means that northerners will work in winter for the first time.

Kalya’s Little Class·The Erosion of Shadow Energy and Hazel Velvet:

The erosion of shadow energy has the effect of accelerating decay. Although in the eyes of most people, shadow is a dark and dangerous force, but equally, as negative energy, it is also part of the elemental cycle of Runeterra - without decay, there will be no rebirth. .

The cultivation of hazelnut mushrooms uses high-energy humus soil created by trees and dead leaves after shadow erosion.
