Shaman from Afar

Fortress Boundary Hill, fifth day, night.

"How is this going?!"

Dracis, the deputy commander of the fortress, stood in front of the gate, almost writing anger and fear on his face.

No one dared to speak, there was silence all around; all the officers that followed followed them with their mouths shut and dumb.

Behind him, a dozen alchemists who were equally panicked, did not dare to look into the eyes of the deputy commander;

In front of him ... is an empty warehouse.

That's right, it means literally; there is nothing, nothing left, not even a starved mouse.

And when he last inspected the warehouse six days ago, there was also a mountain of pyrotechnics, alchemy bombs, and flammable oil that could burn quickly and be viscous and melt into water in ice and snow.

According to the original plan, it is enough to persist for ten days!

How did it run out? !

The officers who looked at each other glanced at each other, and then very "tacitly" aimed at the deputy commander of the fortress.

Of course, Dresis knows that his splurge has been nearly twice as fast as originally planned; there is no way, he must do it, otherwise it is equivalent to let Salika Jonah and the defending soldiers fighting out of the city Let's go to death.

At the beginning, Dresis was somewhat guilty, worried that the logistics reserve was not enough to insist on the arrival of the defenders; but soon he had to give up this idea, because the offensive momentum of the Azores has always been fierce, almost In the rush of death, as long as he ordered the use of fire oil or alchemy bombs, he would be able to reap the results that even the cavalry could not get.

Although he tried to use the tactics of forcing the enemy to retreat with huge casualties, he ended in failure at the end; but Dresis had no regrets. He even felt that he had not released enough, not ruthless enough, and failed to report to Seth Braha and Yi Thousands of knights were attacked and destroyed.

But even so, there should not be a situation where all stocks are exhausted after five days!

The Fortress of the Boundary Mountain has many alchemists, a mountain of materials, plus a group of wizards from the reinforcements sent by Byrne to stay in the Boundary Mountain, there should be no risk in logistics.

Even if you consume too quickly, it does n’t mean you ca n’t add more!

Even if you can't persist for ten days, seven or eight days, is it okay? !

"Gentlemen, I need an explanation ... Thousands of warriors fighting for the imperial security in the entire fortress need an explanation."

The pale-faced Dresis turned around and glanced coldly at the alchemists' faces. "Why ... would you let the logistics reserve appear" the last thing that should happen "?"

Glancing at the deputy commander of the fortress, whose face was so unsightly, all the alchemists stepped back collectively, and the corners of their pale faces were tight, without saying a word.

"Say!"

"Me, me, we ... we tried our best!"

A startled alchemist, panickedly argued, "We started working from the first day of the war, working day and night, but still unable to keep up with the speed of consumption! It ’s too fast, even twice the estimate is not enough! "

"That's right! It's not that we don't want it, but we can't really do it-even the inferior substitutes will take a lot of time to produce, and there is no guarantee of the effect!"

Faced with the excuses of the alchemists, Dresis's face was silent and silent, until the other party finished speaking.

Of course he knew this, but he didn't want to know it.

A quarter of an hour later, when the last alchemist closed his mouth again, and the warehouse returned to silence, Dressis asked coldly.

"So you guys, do you want to tell me that it's really just because of 'powerlessness' ...?"

"of course……"

"Because if you tell me this, I will tell the soldiers outside like this, telling them that the alchemists in the fortress can no longer provide them with any support." Dresis interrupted unkindly

"So I repeat, what other reasons besides objective reasons ... cause you failed to provide sufficient logistic support?"

"This one……"

Alchemists looked at each other and looked at each other with different expressions.

…………………………

"boom--!"

When Dresis, led by a volunteer alchemist, was forced to open the door on the other side of the warehouse, he saw ... a scene he had never seen in his life.

As an imperial nobleman, he even visited the laboratory of the Imperial Capital Wizard College, and saw with his own eyes the complex ancient rune depictions and how alchemy was born.

But the scene before him was unheard of.

Centered on a huge magic circle, a dozen of Bain sorcerers who came with the floating city laid their heads in a circle, and a young, sloppy-haired young man standing in the middle of the magic circle kept screaming; When he spoke, a wizard got up and modified the magic circle under his feet as directed by the words.

"If the rune in the upper left corner is modified, then the corresponding part must be modified once again-add two more runes with linkage effect on it, and then ... What is the linkage effect, your apprentice has not graduated yet? ?! "

"Gentlemen, we have plenty of time but do n’t whisper; we are making a piece of art, we are artists-of course, to be precise, I am that artist, you are at best a brush or manuscript- Artists will never talk to each other! "

"Don't see who comes in again, who goes out again, you are working! Without my order, no one can stop ..."

"Everyone, stop--!"

Before Isaac had finished speaking, the anger of Dracis's roar had already begun.

As soon as the words fell, dozens of fortress knight officers rushed into the laboratory. They could not help but push the "busy" wizards aside, with a hint of resentment in the indifferent expression.

"Hey, here is my laboratory!"

The wide-eyed Isaac Grantham and the inexplicable knights clamoring inwardly shouted "Who allows you to enter ... Stop it, don't mess with it, it's all mine ..."

"Isaac Grantham Wizard, I need an explanation."

Tie Qing's face-faced Dracis interrupted his words and stood directly in front of Isaac. "You ... and what are these wizards doing here?"

"doing what?"

Isaac's expression was even more inexplicable, his arms wide open suddenly "Did you have no eyes-look around and ask me again what I'm doing?"

Dracis wanted to knock down the wizard who dared to shout at himself, but thought that the other person was Baien, so he held back.

"Well, let me put it another way." Pressing his anger strongly, Dresis said coldly, "Your Excellency ..."

"It's Isaac 'Sir!'"

An arrogant man with a little pride on his hips "I'm the emperor of Connaught, the imperial knight who inherited the hereditary brand!"

"Sir Isaac, please ..." Dresis's expression was extremely dark. "Did you and these wizards provide any help for the logistics of the fortress in the past five days?"

"No!"

Isaac replied particularly happy.

"Then did you treat any wounded legionnaire, or provide him with any help the wizard can provide?"

"No! I am not an alchemist or a doctor. Those jobs have nothing to do with me!"

"Very good ..." Dresis has gritted her teeth. "So from now on I will announce to you, Sir Isaac, that you have been banned-you will never get any resources provided by logistics support, all you have The experiments will be stopped, and the wizards working for you will also be transferred to do more important and meaningful work. "

"Instead of being here with you, the‘ artist, ’... the idler who is doing nothing!"

"What ... no!"

Isaac's expression finally changed, "You, you, you, you ... you can't stop my work, these are the wizards who worked with me in Byrne, you can't take them away!"

"I can!"

Dressis, who was completely intolerable to him, shouted, "This is the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain. I am the first executive commander here. All the people here must obey my orders!"

"Including you, Sir Isaac Grantham, must also obey my orders-otherwise I have the power to shut you up and monitor your every move!"

"All the resources here must be arranged according to my use for fighting against the Azores!"

"For fighting against elves ..." Isaac frowned. "So what do you want us to do?"

"What to do, it's very simple, and every wizard can do it!" Dreshy hysterically said, "You and the wizards of Byrne should provide frontline soldiers with sufficient medicines, alchemy bombs and pyrotechnics, and even Help them fight the elves! "

"But you have enough manpower to do these things." Isaac asked rhetorically.

"No, not enough at all; otherwise I won't be here, will I?"

"No no no ... you didn't understand what I meant, I mean to be able to do these hacks ... Alchemy manpower is already the limit of efficiency now." Isaac is also holding back on Tucao

"The alchemists in the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, they are experts in this area, and even if we join in, we will not be able to improve the efficiency, or even help-because the wizards and me who work with me, and Not good at these. "

Dracis's binocular irritability "How do you know?"

"Because I just know, I did the calculations the day I stayed." Isaac calmly said. "The result is that the efficiency of the two of us is not as good as the original-you have to free up some people and spend a few days. Time teaches us how to get these things. "

"The efficiency was only 76% in the first few days, and it could rise to 95% in the next two days, and finally it would fluctuate around 130% ... it had to be ideal!"

"So ... instead of letting my genius waste my biggest resource," helping the soldiers of the fortress to do these useless work, it's better to do something truly meaningful. "

"such as?!"

"For example ... holding the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain."

As the words fell, Dresis froze, and even the knight officers around him froze.

Only Isaac was still staring at him, and the twitching corner of his mouth was filled with anger that did not vent.

This was taught by Lena de Salion-if you really want to be angry when you can't be angry, make faces at the other party.

In a lonely laboratory, frowning dracis looked at the magic circle on the ground, slowly raised his head, and looked at the somewhat mad wizard with a trembling gaze.

"You mean ... this magic circle?"

"Accurately speaking, it should be the magic system that links the entire system."

Isaac finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to talk eloquently. "It is well known that the power of the void can affect the physical world after reaching a certain intensity, and even distort some of the laws-of course, not so easy, but you listen first can."

"So after I collected some research about Master Corona, I found a way to expand this influence and even further influence a certain area; in this way, we can even briefly, Small changes to this whole fortress! "

"In order to show its meaning, I specially gave it a name ... the heart of the savior, after all, guarding the Boundary Mountain, it is keeping the world."

"That is to say, with this thing, we can hold the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain?"

"Uh ... should not."

"Why not?"

"It's not finished yet, of course not."

"..."

Resisting the urge to beat him, Dressis patiently said, "So what happens if ... is done?"

"If completed ... the power of the void that runs within this magic circle will permeate all corners of the fortress-from the towers to the foundations of the castle and city walls, will be completely eroded by the power of the void."

Isaac patiently explained, "Then this thing under our feet ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ will become ... uh, you think of it as a huge control wrench, as long as there is a wizard here, you can start the entire The magic circle triggers a series of vibrations and deformations, which ultimately play a role in deformation. "

"Of course, the amount of piles will eventually cause qualitative changes, so this is a perfect plan that can use the" seesaw "principle to achieve unexpected results; to put it simpler, it is only a small amount of force that eventually completes twice and three times. The possible effects will eventually be ... "

"Infiltrating every corner of the fortress?"

Dracis lit up and didn't hear anything behind Isaac. "Are you saying that you can use magic to control the entire stronghold and let her repel the enemies who are still attacking?"

"No, I mean I can use the magic circle to trigger the crustal changes of the Boundary Mountain, which first collapses the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, and then causes a large-scale earthquake to bury the fortress alive."

Isaac took it for granted.

Dracis stunned.
