My Magic Age

The town of Trum has gradually shown its basic outline, with a flag flying high on the city wall.

Before the end of this month, the assembly of the third teleportation ship was finally completed. Senior Dylan will install the central system of the magic teleportation array next, so I have about a week of free time. I still have to study at the Royal Magic Academy during the day, and I can only come to Trum through the magic portal at night.

When the town's walls took shape, Katarina and I ran to the black market in Tanton City to find the weapons merchant again and bought all the nearly 300 abandoned bed crossbows he had in the warehouse.

The magic patterns in the crossbow arms and giant crossbow arrow slots of these bed crossbows did not have the slightest wear, and the magic crystal slots did not look as clean as new, but the oilcloth on some parts of the bed crossbow body fell off. After such a long period of wind and rain, many places appeared rusty and needed to be refurbished and tung oil was applied on the bed crossbow.

The only pity is that these bed crossbows still have no bases. It is said that these four-wheel bases were all bought by the nobles in the city when the spider warriors besieged the city last year.

At that time, the nobles used those four-wheel bases, some door panels and wooden boxes to piece together a carriage, and rushed to Pereira City with their families and property. The bed crossbows that the Duke of Samoyed spent a huge amount of money to make were split into two. Fortunately, these bed crossbows abandoned in Tanton City, except for those placed on the walls of the inner city, were collected by the weapons merchant in the black market and sold to me.

This weapons merchant is also a genius. It is said that a batch of bed crossbows were directly dismantled into parts by him and sold back to Pereira City, which is equivalent to the Duke of Samoyed spending money to buy his own discarded things.

When the walls of the town of Trum were built, these crossbows were immediately installed on the top of the city by the dwarf Bernd. Each crossbow was not only covered by a canopy, but also wrapped in a layer of rainproof canvas, and there were special personnel for regular maintenance. The crossbow has always been recognized by the Green Empire as the most cost-effective city defense weapon.

It is said that only large cities such as the Imperial Capital, San Carlos City, Sloyt City, Qiyan City, and Haiyinsi have such powerful magic weapons for city defense.

Ordinary small towns only have crossbows and catapults installed on the top of the city. Obviously, in the plane war, the role of crossbows is much greater than that of catapults. Catapults can only play a role in dense phalanx battlefields. Whether it is against the Nakma people, the Nibru spiders, or those evil ghost legions, catapults cannot play a big role.

Today, the two main streets of the town of Trum meet at the central square. The streets are paved with bluestone slabs. There are no landmark buildings such as statues or fountains on the central square. The flat bluestone floor of the square makes it the cleanest place. Every day, there are vendors selling goods in the square. These goods are varied and sell everything.

Although the Trum camp is only beginning to take shape, the total population of the town has exceeded 10,000. In addition to more than 3,000 laborers, the rest are residents of Tanton City. Some of them come to Trum to buy some food, and some come to Trum to try their luck and see if there is a job suitable for them.

...

On the streets of the town of Troum, you can occasionally see a Yero native carrying a rattan basket. They rarely talk in Troum and are very vigilant. The rattan baskets behind them always carry some prey, herbs or wild fruits. Sometimes they stop in front of a stall, and if they like something on the stall, they will gesture with their hands and take out the goods from the rattan basket. If the stall owner is willing to trade, they will nod. If the stall owner shakes his head, these Yero natives will immediately put down the goods in their hands and leave silently.

The vendors in the Troum camp have become accustomed to the existence of these natives.

In the town of Troum, these natives are also protected by the town guards. If someone cheats the property in the hands of the natives and is discovered by the guards, once verified, there will be no room for defense. They will be driven out of Troum City directly, and a unique emblem will be left on their arms, and they will not be allowed to enter Troum Town again.

Now the dwarf Bernd has become the temporary manager of the Trum camp, and he is also responsible for supervising the dozens of dwarves and more than 700 Yelo natives in the underground cave, as well as tens of thousands of goblin slaves. Luka continues to be his granary manager in Trum, and the construction of the Trum camp is in charge of architect Angjin Radner.

Kalancuo and her orc warriors still cannot get out of the Green Valley Forest. The spider warriors in the spider camp have not given up the camp as they did before despite repeated setbacks. It seems that they are determined to capture this Green Valley Forest this time, and Nibru spiders are constantly rushing over from the southern area of ​​the Black Forest to reinforce.

As the Yelo native warriors gradually join the battle, this Green Valley Forest is like a huge meat grinder. At least 5,000 Yelo native warriors have died in this Green Valley Forest, and it has become a cemetery for the Yelo natives.

However, as more and more Hierro indigenous warriors died in this place, the Green Valley Jungle gradually became a sacred place in the hearts of the Hierro indigenous people. They firmly believed that this land could bring them courage, and they also firmly believed that this land could bring them courage. The battle here will eventually be won, and the King of the Forest will bless them to regain the dignity of the indigenous people and this forest.

So countless brave Yero natives rushed from all directions into the Green Valley jungle. They would pick up the weapons in the hands of their fallen companions and continue to cooperate with the orc construct warriors and barbarian slave warriors in the Green Valley jungle. Resist the spider warriors of the Niburu tribe who are constantly pouring into the center of the dense forest.

It was under such a situation that the Hierro indigenous warriors spent their lives accumulating experience in fighting against the Niburu spider people. Some Hierro indigenous warriors who survived several bloody battles finally transformed into members of the tribe. warrior.

Only Elder Singer knew what they paid for the two thousand Hierro indigenous warriors.

…

When staying in the small town of Trum, you can feel that the town is growing rapidly, and you can see obvious changes every time you come.

The stones that arrived from the Sinliu Valley to the small town of Trum were connected together with hydrated lime mixed with clay and built into city walls and stone houses.

Although this connection method is far less strong than the structure of molten iron pouring stone joints, it can allow the buildings in the town of Trum to be built quickly. I originally asked these barbarian slaves to cut the stones in the quarry with interlocking joints. Stone troughs, houses built with these stones will become more stable.

I like to take Catalina walking on the shabby streets and feel the changes in the town every day.

A piece of news brought back by an elder from Bangalore frightened me so much that I immediately rushed back to the underground cave in Xinliu Valley.

Walking quickly down from the underground teleportation altar in Xinliu Valley, two orc construct warriors guarded the left and right sides of the teleportation altar. Granite stones and wheat flour were piled neatly in the open space next to the altar, and dozens of boxes were placed waiting for transportation. The portal to the red copper magic pattern rune plate in the rune workshop is opened almost every day to transfer various necessary supplies between the Imperial Capital and Xinliu Valley, as well as between Xinliu Valley and the Yero Plane.

Using the Hammer of the Space-Time Breaker so frequently and the thunder and lightning elements in my body gave me a very strange feeling during this period. I seemed to be able to feel the thunder and lightning elements growing on my left shoulder blade at such a rapid speed. The growth has completely crushed the shoulder blade on the right side, which contains the power of the wind element. Countless thunder and lightning elements seem to be eager to break free from the shackles of the left shoulder blade, like a huge tentacle transforming into various strange appearances behind me.

The wind element on the other shoulder blade is like a young seedling. It just sprouts a leaf made of wind element on the shoulder blade. I don't know whether this change is good or bad, but I think I should find an opportunity to ask recently. Ask Shaun Scholar.

Passing through the door of the teleportation altar stone room and passing the magic seal workshop, the sound of printing coming from inside was like the beat of a restless dance at a bonfire party. Pieces of discarded round copper plates the size of a palm were lying on the floor of the printing workshop. After laying a thick layer, two Yerro natives walked out of the printing workshop carrying a large basket filled with red copper magic pattern rune plates.

Stainless steel gears are neatly stacked on the shelves in the blacksmith workshop next door. Several female dwarves wearing aprons stand in front of the workbench like traditional pastry chefs, stuffing pieces of soft blanks into gear-shaped gears. In the 'cake mold', use an iron-wood hammer to pound the ingredients firmly, and then Press it flat, use a shovel to remove the excess material, and pour the workpieces in the mold onto a wooden board. When the gears on the wooden board are full, immerse them uniformly into a square wooden trough filled with curing agent. Twelve Hours later, a new batch of precision gears will be born from this wooden slot.

I didn't have time to appreciate some of the wonderful ideas of the four old dwarf craftsmen, so I walked directly through the underground square, the secret room where Hex's drawings were stored, the silk reeling workshop, the stone houses of the Hiero natives, and the golden cider cellar, and came to In front of the door of a stone room on the innermost side.

At this time, the Bangalore elder and the dwarf Bernd stood at the door of the stone chamber with solemn faces. When they saw me and rushed over, they gave up their position at the door of the stone chamber.

Standing in front of the stone chamber, the first thing that catches the eye is a white ice wall. The door of the stone chamber and the rock wall of the cave are completely wrapped by a thick layer of ice. The area of ​​this ice layer has exceeded the entire stone chamber. Like a huge spider web, it is spreading around the wall, and the cold air makes the temperature here drop to freezing point.

I approached the stone door and saw that the ice layer on the stone door was nearly one meter thick, so I asked the Bangalore elder: "When did this kind of ice layer appear in the stone chamber?"

The Bangalore elders and the Hierro natives are responsible for looking after this stone chamber, and every ten days someone throws four frost scrolls into the stone chamber.

The Bangalore elder told me: "There were some signs about a month ago. At that time, we thought it was caused by the newly placed 'frost' magic scroll in the stone chamber, so we didn't pay much attention to it."

He stared at the ice on the wall and continued: "Half a month ago, we began to discover that the ice in the stone chamber not only did not slowly weaken due to the failure of the 'Frost' magic scroll, but instead caused condensation on all the stone walls in the stone chamber. There was a thick layer of white frost, and I felt something was wrong. At that time, I just didn’t let anyone continue to place frost scrolls in the cave.”

After a short pause, Elder Bangalore said: "It's just... I didn't expect that after only half a month, the ice layer in the stone chamber would spread out directly, and the stone door of this stone chamber has been completely sealed. I felt that things were a bit tricky, otherwise I wouldn't have asked someone to find you from the town of Trum."

Knocking on the thick ice wall with my hand, there was no sign of melting on it. I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, frowned slightly and said: "It's really a bit troublesome! Anyway, let's go in and see what's going on inside."

After that, I drew a magic pattern array of "Ice Explosion" on my chest. I have mastered the control skills of Ice Explosion.

I just slightly controlled the area of ​​the ice explosion.

"Ice... Explosion!"

The temperature around suddenly dropped, and the thick layer of ice on the surface of the outer wall of the stone chamber instantly turned into ice mist, spreading in the cave, and all of us were covered with a layer of white frost.

Such a fierce cold made Elder Bangalore and the dwarf Bernd shiver. If I hadn't deliberately protected them, I'm afraid that all the people present, except Katarina, would have turned into ice sculptures.

The outer layer of ice on the rock wall disappeared, and Katarina and I walked up to open the stone door at the same time. The scene inside made me gasp for air.

The ice tablet that sealed Sister Guoguo's water element body lay in the center of the stone chamber, but the ice tablet was purer and clearer than before. Sister Guoguo looked more lifelike inside the ice tablet, and a faint pure ice air surrounded the ice tablet and kept rotating slowly.

The extremely cold breath spread out from the stone chamber, and even I, who had a very high affinity for ice elements, couldn't help but shiver. The coldness could almost penetrate into my bones.

The most terrifying sight was that on the stone wall of the stone room, there were densely packed sharp ice spikes, each of which was next to another, as if they grew out of the stone wall. All of the ice spikes were like countless sharp swords, pointing directly at the ice monument in the center of the stone room.

The remaining space in the entire ice room could hardly accommodate a person walking inside.

Elder Bangalore exclaimed: "How could it become like this?"

I did not answer Elder Bangalore's question, but at this moment I already knew the reason. Sister Guoguo's water element body actually completed the transformation into an ice element body within half a year. Her body has automatically evolved into a higher-level ice element body, and it has been completely transformed.

Now, the ice monument created by the scholar Sean is no longer a cage to seal her. Instead, the ice monument has become the nourishment of Sister Guoguo's ice elemental body, which is constantly nourishing her. The seal array on the ice monument is weakened little by little. Maybe it won't be long before Sister Guoguo's ice elemental body will break free from the seal and rush out of the ice monument.

I put my hand on my forehead. I didn't expect things to be so tricky. It seems that I must find the scholar Sean immediately.

I didn't even enter the stone room and closed the stone door directly.

Then I told the elder Bangalore and the dwarf Bernd to send someone to keep an eye on it and not let anyone get close to this stone room.

Katarina and I then returned to the imperial capital through the portal.
