prehistoric calendar

(PS: The matter is almost finished. Tomorrow we will resume three regular updates and pay off the debt at the same time... I won’t pay it off in one day, I will pay it off over several days.)

In addition to the two elves, Noldor and Gray, who stayed behind, as well as the women and children of the human tribe, who were also temporarily stationed, everyone else set out to explore the surrounding areas of Sulan City.

There was nothing much to say about the first two investigation points, and Ai did not find any traces of pagans or Hades factions. The third investigation point was their destination. It was called the Thousand Cave Land, which was a hill and valley.

Zone, geographically in the shape of caves, the land is covered with

Various caves, these caves are either connected to each other or independent, deep or shallow, forming a large underground labyrinth. It is said that in the days when the Plant Alliance was first established, this land of thousands of caves was the lair of bandits and rebels.

, this is also an important investigation location for this mission.

Everyone came to the Thousand Cave Land and looked around. There were obvious caves on some hills. The deeper they went, the denser the caves became. There were definitely more than a thousand, there could be tens of thousands.

.

At this time, Ai Yi held a book and said while reading: "It is said that someone once saw drow elves here...don't those dirty garbage live in the underground world? Could it be that the caves here are so deep that

Underworld?”

Hao looked at the caves in the distance and said: "No, there shouldn't be a passage to the underground world here. If there was, then a solid fortress would have been built here long ago. The senior officials of the Plant Alliance cannot be so unwise. This is a rumor.

However, the deepest cave may be close to the underground world, so there may be shadow creatures appearing. So although this trip is for investigation, it is also very dangerous. Are you ready with the magic scroll I asked you to prepare?"

Ai Yi glanced at Hao, and took out ten scrolls from his arms with pain, handed them to Hao and said: "Here, here you go, really, it's not enough to have a magician like me, you also have to create them."

These non-magic inspired magic scrolls, did you know that these magic scrolls alone are worth thousands of spiritual stones?"

Hao took over these magic scrolls without saying a word. These magic scrolls were all tanned with specially made Warcraft leather, and also added many precious magic potions. Each empty scroll required fifty spiritual stones to purchase.

You also need to purchase special writing tools

Tools and ink, the cost price of these ten cards requires thousands of spirit stones. This is also thanks to Ai's creation of low-level magic between magic and first-order magic, and Hao's analysis and optimization, otherwise it would be a waste of one.

No one can afford the cost price of hundreds of spirit stones.

In fact, ordinary magic scrolls are not so expensive. Although the price is not cheap, a magic scroll that is between sleight of hand and first-level magic only costs about thirty spirit stones even if purchased at the Adventure Guild. If the magician makes it himself,

The cost price is at most ten spirit stones, or even lower, but this kind of magic scroll requires the user to have energy circulation in the body, preferably a legal professional, otherwise it will be just a piece of waste paper when others tear it apart, and Ai

The magic scroll Yi made can contain magic power in itself. Even if the user is a mortal, it can contain magic power.

It doesn't matter if you tear it open, it will be effective. Of course, because this kind of scroll can be used by mortals, the scroll itself requires magic beast leather, and the scroll between magic and first-level magic requires second-level magic beast leather.

Second-level magic requires third-level magic beast leather,

Not all Warcraft can, and the magic potions, additives, and various oils used in the scrolls are extremely expensive. It is said that a legendary magic scroll that can be used by ordinary people was once sold at an auction in the Azure Empire.

The auction fetched a sky-high price of 80 million spiritual stones.

Hao carefully thought about the distribution of these scrolls. Suddenly he saw Ai Yi pouting and huffing next to him. Inexplicable emotions flowed through his heart, and he explained: "We need to go deep into the underground to investigate, and although this magic is only an introduction

in magic and one

Between level magic, but it can cause damage to shadow creatures and spiritual undead creatures. It can be used in battles. You are precious combat power, our trump card and foundation. I won’t do it until the key point.

Let you use magic."

Hearing Hao's special explanation, Ai Yi felt inexplicably happy. She smiled and nodded to indicate that she understood.

Hao looked at the sky and said to Ai Rui beside him: "Ai Rui, you are responsible for coordinating the construction of the camp. You can allocate personnel at will. Everyone, including me and Miss Ai Yi, will obey your orders. My request is,

Build a strong camp and control the camp facilities yourself.

It is best to use local materials, there must be shooting holes, and there must be a magician's platform. At the same time, it is best to have a secret tunnel as an escape point. As for the number of residents, the number is based on one thousand people, and the storage warehouse is also based on one thousand people.

You can use it for half a month as a basis for construction."

Ai Rui is a construction engineer himself and has rich knowledge. After hearing Hao's words, he thought about it and said to Hao: "Oh my God, this project is huge. We need you, Anyang, and Miss Aiyi."

It will take some help, especially magic. Without magic, we alone may not be able to complete this project in a year, especially the tunnels."

Hao looked at Aiyi, who immediately said: "Look what I'm doing. Anyway, if I ask you why you want to build such a camp, you will never answer, so just tell me what you need me to do."

Hao said patiently: "It's not that I don't answer, but even if I answer some things, you will only think that I am too cautious, to the point of being delusional. If I had not predicted the mistake, the war would have started soon."

Spread over, and it is estimated that something else will happen before the war. This is our retreat, at least one of the retreats, so I need to build it stronger because..."

"No one can predict what the future will be like, right?" Ai Yi covered her head and sighed, and then she said to Ai Rui: "In short, that's your order, Master Ai Rui."

Ai Rui smiled and said: "If you can't be a master, I will divide these people into three batches on that day. A batch of people will be changed every day. Two batches will be enough for construction, and the remaining batch will be made by

Is this a good arrangement for you to take me with me to explore?"

Hao nodded and confirmed Ai Rui's idea, and then he ordered the sergeants to lead the tribesmen to set up camp, while he took Ai Yi and Anyang to a nearby hillside.

Hao looked up into the distance, and from time to time he took out the official topographic map here and some marked cave maps purchased from the black market. He kept comparing them, and from time to time he drew something on the map with a pen, just like that.

While calculating, while swiping, while

Looking from a distance, at least two or three hours had passed. There were bonfires burning in the camps in the distance, and the sky had reached the end of dusk. Ai Yi couldn't help but ask: "Are you okay? I thought you were there."

As for the exact news, I didn’t expect it to be calculated.”

Hao was paddling and calculating on the map without raising his head. At the same time, he said: "Many things may deceive you, but mathematics cannot. This is the most direct and straightforward basic rule of the multiverse. In fact, the great road is right in front of you.

, but many people simply turn a blind eye, you know? Unless you become a holy god, the day will come when the life of the spirit will be exhausted, not to mention the many legends and demigods, and those legendary demigods who were prominent for a while

, when they die, if their power is not strong enough, or weaker than the lurking enemies, then they will hide their tombs from others, use many magics, many traps, and even seek help from the lower planes.

Even the existence of low latitudes is to prevent others from intruding on one's body and interfering with one's wealth. However, as long as it is a parked dead thing, there is no absolute guarantee. I remember that in the war of all races, there were even many top 100 race organizations.

Official tomb robbers steal the tombs of these famous and powerful men. Many tombs have been broken open and stolen, but do you know what is the most difficult step for those tomb robbers?"

Ai thought for a while and guessed: "Is it a magic trap? No, even permanent magic will gradually weaken as time goes by... Could it be the erosion of lower planes and low latitudes?"

"This is indeed a difficulty, but it is not the most difficult. As the saying goes, a mausoleum itself is a dead thing placed there. If it doesn't work once, just do it ten times, and if it doesn't work ten times, do it a hundred times. As long as the benefits are big enough, even

The holy throne will come directly to break open the tomb."

Hao said treacherous words, but he didn't take it seriously and just continued: "The most difficult thing is actually to find the tomb. This is the most difficult thing. If you can't find it, no matter how many people you have, no matter how powerful you are,

Even sand like sand is useless, because you don’t even know where the tomb is, so how can you break open the tomb? This is the biggest difficulty, and then, you know the so-called earth veins, right?"

Ai Yi immediately said: "Of course I know. In fact, the world has naturally gathered free energy nodes. This is mentioned in the basics of magic. It's just that the free energy naturally gathered by the world is often too scattered, and this free energy

It is not extraordinary internal energy generated by life, so it cannot be used. Only a few magic circles and large-scale magic rituals can be used slightly."

Hao nodded and continued: "Yes, that's true, but that is for living extraordinary professionals. For dead extraordinary professionals, they can no longer use their own magic or other energy.

, as you said, even if you use permanent magic, it will gradually pass over time. This is a natural law and irreversible. Therefore, in order to slow down or even reverse this process as much as possible, legend and above powerful people

Tombs are often built on these nodes. Although the naturally gathered free energy cannot be actively used, it can still be used to maintain the most basic magic circle. Daily maintenance is actually the key point. Thousands of years, thousands of years.

Years, one hundred thousand years, if there is such maintenance, as long as no outsiders find the tomb, it is really possible that the tomb will continue to exist."

Ai Yi suddenly said: "I understand, are you calculating the natural energy gathering nodes here?"

Hao looked at Ai Yi like he was an idiot, and Ai Yi immediately shouted angrily: "Hey, it was you who mentioned the natural energy gathering node! Why are you looking at me like that!? I

Let me tell you, don't keep despising my intelligence like this. I admit that I'm not as smart as you, but you don't have to be so arrogant about your talent. I also have self-esteem, okay?"

Hao looked back with some embarrassment, stood up from his crouching state, and said seriously: "Miss Aiyi, that's not what I meant... The reason why I mentioned the natural energy gathering node just now is actually to tell you that those tomb robbers

When researchers want to find tombs, they usually use high-level magicians as the core, use magic to check the natural energy gathering nodes, and then

Calculating its specific position is a combination of magic and mathematics. As a mortal, I can't see natural energy. Miss Ayi will probably be able to see it after she becomes a high-level magician, but at least we can't do this now.

, so I am not calculating the natural energy gathering nodes, sorry, Miss Ai... I will pay attention to my words and deeds in the future."

Ai Yi nodded with satisfaction, and then reached out to pat Hao's shoulder. It was fine when Hao was squatting before, but now Hao stood up, and Ai Yi had to use his feet to pat Hao's shoulder. By the way,

, Hao has grown at least five centimeters taller in these days, and now he is more than 1.6 meters tall.

Hao looked at Ai Yi, and he suddenly squatted down slightly, so that Ai Yi's outstretched hand would not be returned in vain. After all, he patted his shoulder. Ai Yi suddenly smiled, and Hao continued to squat down and look at the map.

Said: "I have seen rumors about this hybrid spiritual magician in a book before.

I didn't think much of it at the time, but in one of the photos I took, I saw some clues. It seemed like a poem with no beginning or end at all, but in fact it was a phonetic digital code. I decoded it.

Finally, I discovered its mathematical position, and now I am actually confirming this position."

Aiyi said a few words, then asked: "Has it been decrypted?"

"Not yet, at least the direction here is wrong. Judging from the size of the entire Thousand Cave Land, it will take us about ten days to find the direction if we are unlucky. If we are lucky, we can find it tomorrow. According to the probability, we

It takes about…”

"Okay, okay, let's go back to eat." Ai Yi now knew how to treat Hao. She giggled and patted Hao's back, then hummed a song and took the lead towards the camp with Anyang.

go.

Hao didn't take it seriously either. He just followed the two girls and sighed inexplicably as he watched Ai Yi talking and laughing all the way.

This exploration is actually far more significant than what he said, because judging from the information he recently collected and deduced, the Plant Alliance may not have started a war with the Hades camp, but this large group headed by the elves

The region, the Elf Empire, and the surrounding vassal alliance groups have encountered lower plane camps in many places.

, so far, in addition to the Hades camp on the border of the Elf Empire, many lower plane camps such as the Dark World and the World of Khorne have also been discovered. Although they all appear in the form of descent and are not real regular armies of the lower plane, this

It's also very scary, especially since there is also the demon refining camp, one of the three giants in the lower plane.

There are many lower planes, but the three most powerful lower plane camps are demons, demons, and demons, which represent the three lower planes of the Abyss, Baator Hell, and Purgatory. They are the strongest.

The most terrifying lower plane camp, during the first war of all races, was the demons, demons, and refining demons who joined forces to burn down the Mother Tree of Life.

At present, the situation of the Elf Empire and the surrounding vassal alliances is not optimistic. According to Hao's plan, once such a situation occurs, it means that there will no longer be any safe zone around the Elf Empire. For example,

From the Plant Alliance, he continued walking in the direction away from the Elf Empire. He calculated that he would have to cross at least five alliance areas in a row before he could escape from the Elf Empire's sphere of influence.

This is still a situation where the lower plane forces only besiege the Elf Empire. If the lower plane forces fully invade, then there will be no safe place in the entire prehistoric continent. Moreover, Ai and other elves can move freely in the vassal alliance around the Elf Empire. Not only in terms of policy,

There are discounts, and you don’t have to worry about encountering safety problems. However, once you leave the circle of influence of the Elf Empire, there are still a large number of races that are enemies of the elves on the ancient continent, such as the ancient orcs, the barbarians, etc., these thousands of races

When the tribe sees the elves, they will often hunt them down to the end.

So Hao doesn't think that keeping rushing and running away is a good solution. Seeing that the war of all races is about to come again, if their team's strength does not improve, the team may be wiped out immediately when a battlefield is affected in the future. This is what Hao insists on.

Reasons to stay with Plant Alliance.

This is the radiation circle of the elven civilization, in which the elves such as Ai play a very important role, and at least it is safe here for now. He needs to improve the team's strength as much as possible during this safe time.

But this also means that once the war breaks out, he will not be able to lead the team to a safe place in a short time, because no matter leaving from any direction in the Plant Alliance, they may encounter hostile forces in the lower planes, unless he does it now

Lead the team to leave, but this goes back to the previous question, how does he know that it is safe outside the elven cultural radiation circle?

Once the Plant Alliance falls into a war, especially before the Plant Alliance is defeated and destroyed by the forces from the lower plane, he must find a way to lead the team out of danger as quickly as possible. With this as his goal, he only thinks of two ways.

, the first way is to go farther away through the empty door. The advantage is that it is fast. As long as you find the empty door correctly, there is no possibility of being blocked.

But the disadvantages are also obvious. First of all, it takes a lot of time to confirm the situation opposite the empty gate. The empty gates that span a large area are under the strict guard of various cities. During wars, empty gates are often blocked. This is a difficulty. The second is before Hao

Those are the things that come to mind, a series of difficulties after being far away from the radiating circle of elven culture, and the opponent is also likely to be at war. In short, the choice of Kongmen is not the best choice.

Besides empty gate, there is another way...

After finding the treasure of this spiritual level magician, regardless of whether there is a floating magic tower or not, the inventory of a spiritual level magician is enough to bring about a qualitative change in their team. At that time, they will have to leave, stay, or return to the Elf Empire.

, they all have a choice.

This is a spiritual position, and it is also a legal spiritual position. This is an existence that can barely speak in front of the holy god. It is an existence recognized as a reserve for the holy god, and has obtained its treasure, plus Ai

Become a high-level magician, and the strength of this team will be ten times or more stronger than now...

Of course, the premise is that they must find the location of the treasure, enter it, obtain the treasure, and there must be treasure.

At the same time, an Eagle Tribe and a mixed-race man came to Sulan City. After they walked out of the Plant Express lobby, they each took a few deep breaths. The Eagle Tribe said: "Lao Yi, let's go visit like this."

Wouldn't it be good? I'm not talking about you, but you are also

You are acting too aggressively. Although the other party is a second-level magician and a magician from the Elf tribe, what will others think if we approach us eagerly? I am not talking about you, Lao Yi, you are also an old businessman.

, you are still so naive, we should..."

The mixed-race man was none other than Ishan Jiu, the leader of the Blue Salt Merchant Group. He responded wordlessly to the words of the Yingren tribe, while one of his hands was vaguely holding the necklace under his collar...

Did he finally have the chance to return to the magic tower he left behind?

No, that might not be him...

No, that's him...

Every one of them is him...

The him here, the him who died in the past, the him in hell, the him in the bottomless abyss, or the him in the outer plane, the him in the future...
