Chapter 357:
The performance of Stars Fallen Knight Mecha Prototype No. 1 was, without any surprise, a great success.
The mecha's mobility is as agile as a knight, and its arcane spell-casting ability is as violent as an arcane mage's. The combat effectiveness of the knight's mecha is directly catching up with the arcane mage in the sky.
"It can be further optimized." Duke piloted the Knight Mecha Prototype No. 1 and returned to the warehouse of the mecha playground. He said to Dean Joseph who was observing the mecha nearby, "It has greater combat potential than airships and battleships at this stage. Big."
"I saw it, Chairman Duke." Joseph nodded and responded, "Indeed, its potential is infinite." "
Can arcane mages also control mechas?"
"Of course, the power of the three seas It's just a way to control mechas. The spiritual energy of arcane masters and the energy of all things in Qi Refiners can replace fighting spirit and control mechas." "This is very good. The
existence of mechas will greatly enhance our understanding of Habitat. However, I think the mecha must be restricted and the pilot should be guided by the power of the contract. Otherwise, the destructive power caused will be difficult to end." "Your proposal is very good, Dean Joseph. The pilot will naturally sign it
. Contract." Duke nodded.
The mecha is so powerful that even if it is just a prototype mecha, you can still feel the combat power that is so powerful that it transcends the level gap.
An ordinary great knight, driving a mecha, has the combat power of a sky arcane mage. This is simply unbelievable. Of course, the sky arcane mage has built a forbidden spell system and has arcane weapons to assist him. He is much more flexible than a mecha. many.
If one-on-one, the mecha will definitely be dismantled into a pile of scum by the Sky Arcane Mage.
However, the combat power output of the mecha, especially when facing spiritual beasts and the like, is definitely not inferior to that of the Sky Arcana Mage.
all in all.
The emergence of mechas will change the current practice system.
In the past, the combat effectiveness of monks was attributed to the monks themselves. Now, the combat effectiveness of monks may rely on the power of equipment.
From lightsabers to mechas, this is a huge qualitative change.
"Can the combat effectiveness of the mecha break through... the star level?" Joseph suddenly asked a new question after learning about the data of the knight mecha in detail.
"Stars..." Duke shook his head, "I don't know."
Joseph said with emotion: "Now it seems that it is difficult for the mecha to break through the strength limit of the Great Arcane Mage, because the stars are another level of life. But as With the updated iteration of the optical brain, the magical powers of the stars may also be simulated through the optical brain..."
Duke was silent.
In fact, Joseph's judgment was very accurate.
In Duke's mind, he has already had plans for the Stars Mecha. After all, Xiaoyi has already begun to study the super-forbidden ring structure. After Duke is promoted to the Stars, he can start researching the super-ring structure. When the time comes, the secrets of supernatural powers will be revealed.
Optical cores continue to iterate, and one day they will be able to handle hyperring structures.
At that time, the magical power of the stars can be reproduced on the mecha, giving the mecha a combat power comparable to that of the stars.
"I can't tell, but I'm looking forward to it." Duke gave Joseph a blueprint, "If the combat power of the stars can be continuously amplified through the mecha, perhaps there will no longer be any dangerous existence in the wilderness that can stop us. "
Yes, if the stars drive the star mechas, their combat power will continue to increase, and the scars on the earth may even be smoothed out by us." "I haven't asked yet, did
your recent exploration of the scars on the earth go well?"
"It was a bit bumpy." Joseph sighed, "The scars on the earth are connected deep underground. We can't find the true body of the god. The ruins are changing all the time and have even encountered serious crises several times. So far, nothing has been found." During this time, Duke
also It can be said that I have come into contact with a lot of first-hand information on evil.
I roughly understand the reason why the stars are searching for the scar on the earth. In addition to wanting to prevent the aura of the gods from escaping, the biggest benefit is that they can obtain extraordinary benefits from the ruins.
In the terms of the stars.
God's evil eating the spring of spirituality is a kind of decomposition of the spiritual arcana, which decomposes the spiritual arcana into the most basic power of rules.
The power of these rules will appear in different ways. It may be an opportunity, some magical power, or a secret method of practice.
All in all, exploring the ruins of God's Abomination is like opening a blind box.
Maybe the one you open is empty, or maybe the next box contains all the experiences and opportunities of the Crowning Sun Chapter.
"So, exploring the ruins of the gods is like opening up the will of the stars?" Duke asked.
Joseph spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "I don't have the grace of you and Timirasu Fengshen to get the opportunity to activate the will of the stars. Therefore, I don't know very well what the enlightenment of the will of the stars is. You should ask Mirasu Wind God."
"I'm not familiar with him." Duke said honestly.
Timirasu Fengshen is an arcanist. He has never been very involved in the research of spiritual arcana and only studies arcane and forbidden arts.
So there's very little connection to Duke.
"Well, you should have a common language. You see, the arcane magic you cast on the mecha is undoubtedly an important application in the elemental field. And..." Joseph paused and continued, "As far as I know, the arcane magic you cast on the mecha is undoubtedly an important application in the elemental field. The Institute of Arts is ready to nominate you as an elemental sage."
"Recommend me?" Duke was surprised.
"Yes, the discovery of the spiritual shadow element and the application of the energy ring make it impossible for the Arcane Research Institute to ignore your promotion and development of the elemental field." Although the elemental field mainly
studies arcana and forbidden arts, it also studies spiritual particles. A kind of research, the spiritual shadow element is a kind of spiritual particle. Fission reaction and fusion reaction are both important explorations of spiritual particles.
so.
From this point of view, it is obviously natural for Duke to obtain the title of Elemental Sage.
Joseph casually explained: "The reason why they are procrastinating is mainly because the previous elemental sages improved and innovated arcana and forbidden arts. But what you are studying is the element of spiritual shadow, which is related to arcane and forbidden arts." Maybe it's somewhat related, but not much."
The elemental field has always been a relatively independent field.
And it is basically contracted by arcanists and belongs to the private territory of arcanists, but Duke is an arcane scholar.
"It doesn't matter. I don't care whether I gain or lose the title of sage." Duke smiled slightly. He is the prophet of the seven rings and the eight sages. The eight sage titles are unprecedented and unprecedented. There will be no more sages. So what about the title of the author?
Besides, he is still young and has at least four hundred years to study.
After continuing to chat for a while, Joseph's clone lasted for the longest time, and after saying goodbye, it shattered into dots of fluorescent light.
Duke continues to study the Knight Mecha.
Through previous personal driving, he has obtained a lot of new data on the knight mecha. After these new data are given to Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi will prepare a more powerful mecha design plan.
"Kerich."
"Sir, I'm here."
"Let the Eudemons Knight pilot test this mecha more. Once it is controllable, we will hold an academic conference and you will explain the mecha." Duke doesn't mind giving Kailic Gray Deer Being famous, after all, he no longer cares about non-ring level achievements.
When Kailic Gray Deer heard this, he was shocked and couldn't be more excited: "Sir, sir, is it appropriate for me to explain? This is your invention, sir. I am only responsible for the specific work, and my colleagues have worked no less hard than me. "
He is not stupid, he knows how much he weighs.
Without Duke's design ideas and his many help in experiments, he alone would not have been able to develop the mecha.
After all, this mecha incorporates many peak skills in the fields of erudition, alchemy, formations, and puppetry. He is just a new erudite sage, and he does not play any irreplaceable role in the development process of the mecha. Role.
There are more than a dozen laboratory leaders like him in the mecha research and development team, all of whom are at the level of great arcane mages and have titles of sages and scholars in various fields.
"It doesn't matter, you can explain it on my behalf." Duke smiled.
Kailiqi Gray Deer did not refuse anymore, but solemnly nodded and responded: "Don't worry, Sir, I will go all out to complete the explanation of this academic conference!" He
received Duke's support.
After that, Kailic Gray Deer worked even harder, spending 24 hours at the mecha playground, repeatedly adjusting the Knight Mecha Prototype No. 1, and finding a group of art masters to paint the Knight Mecha. color.
The time lasted until December 15th, and a unique mecha academic conference was held in the mecha playground.
Live broadcast to the world.
Kailic Gray Deer hosted this academic conference with a nervous and excited heart. However, no matter how excellent his performance was during the explanation, he could not steal the limelight from the knight mecha that jumped out of the warehouse later.
The fantasy beast knight drove the knight mecha, and under the focus of countless live cameras, he began to perform to the extreme.
This scene.
With the ring of light and faith, it spreads to thousands of households.
Then, countless people across the entire Wilderness Continent were shocked by the Knight Mecha. Seeing the knight mechas crisscrossing the forest with their devastating combat power, countless viewers stared wide-eyed and many teenagers drooled.
"Under the wise leadership of Lord Duke, the mecha has arrived!" Waiting for the return of the knight mecha, Kailic Gray Deer flew onto the shoulder of the mecha, looked at the live broadcast of the shuttle approaching, and shouted loudly, "The hole The era of micro-spirituality has ushered in a new climax!"
This press conference was profound and far-reaching.
Even if Duke personally broadcast the Ring of Energy four months ago, the impact it had was not as huge as the impact of this mecha live broadcast.
There is no other reason.
Although the energy ring has far-reaching influence, the intuitive feeling is not strong, and many people cannot even understand the use of the energy ring.
after all.
For most people, the Spirit Storage Card is enough, and there is no need to spend a lot of money to buy any Shadow Card Treasure.
Only arcane mages can truly understand the greatness of the energy ring and what the energy ring can bring to spiritual arcana.
But the mecha is different. Looking at the live broadcast, the mecha destroying the world, even the homeless man who picks up rags will shout "Awesome". The hearts of the young knights were even more captured. In this life, they just want to be able to control a mecha and ride around.
The lower class of society are fascinated by the mecha, and the upper echelons of society are also shocked by the power of the mecha.
"The emergence of mechas is about to change the structure of society. If a great knight can also control mechas and defeat Yalong, then what else can stop us humans from conquering the Wild Continent?" - Columnist of "Seven Towers Daily" , Sky Arcane Mage Slime, expressed this emotion in the article.
"One mecha can guard the safety of a city!"
"From now on, arcane mages can stay at home and focus on studying spiritual arcana. The work of guarding the habitat is left to the knights." - " The front page of the Knight's Journal.
"Will mechas break the balance of human cultivation?"
"Knight mechas are only the first generation of mechas. In the future, there will be refining mechas and arcane mage mechas. The full popularity of mechas will affect human spirituality." A major turning point in the history of arcana."
"The omnipotent sage Duke has brought another great work that shocked all mankind."
There is no exception. News discussing mechas is flying all over the sky, and Duke is still praised and praised as before. .
Of course, Duke doesn't accept interviews. Therefore, reporters conducted a large number of interviews with Kailic Gray Deer, which made Kailic Gray Deer feel that his life had reached its peak.
...
December 18th.
Erudite Tower, all leadership meeting.
Madron Rhodiola presided over the meeting, and Duke, as the chairman of the Supreme Committee of the Erudite Tower, also attended the meeting.
Also attending the meeting were two other stars.
Elivin, the director of the Institute of Natural History, and Bolagu, the executive vice chairman of the Supreme Committee.
"Chairman, colleagues." Madron Rhodiola's face was expressionless, which was his usual style. "This meeting does not discuss mechas, but the structure of the Erudite Tower. With the advent of the Hollow Spirituality Era, Arrival, the explosion of Natural History, the Erudite Tower is already operating at full capacity... "The
Ring of Wisdom, the Ring of Light and Faith, the Ring of Energy... A series of technologies brought by Duke need to be promoted and developed by Natural History."
In addition, there are technologies that need to be studied, such as sound tube trains, super optical brains, lightsabers and light shields, etc.
The work that the Erudite Tower needs to undertake has increased hundreds of times compared to a few decades ago. Even if we continue to recruit people, we still can't solve so many tasks. At one point, the arcane mage management of the Erudite Tower did not even have enough time to practice.
"The top priority is to eliminate a large number of trivial tasks from the Tower of Erudite." Madron Rhodiola glanced at Duke.
I thought to myself that all this trouble was caused by Duke.
Then he said calmly: "So, I propose that the Erudite Tower be like the Magical Tower, with a knight's monastery set up outside to share the functions." "
Master Generalissimo, everyone, I also want to take the opportunity to say something." Boragu cleared his throat. , followed by saying, "The Supreme Committee will also set up a new organization to share the work. Now there are too many new inventions reported in the twelve fields and they are too complicated to handle." After hearing this, Duke nodded and said: "
Then Let's discuss it, times have changed, and the Erudite Tower also needs corresponding reforms."
Everyone spoke one after another, discussing how to establish a new organization to share the functions of the Erudite Tower and the Supreme Committee.
After the Magic Spirit Tower was established, because there were too many knights and spiritual envoys, and the arcane mages were arrogant and arrogant, they were unwilling to allow knights and spiritual envoys to enter the tower to work, so they simply established a knight's monastery and a nature guild outside. Manage knights and spiritual envoys.
The knight monastery is at least under the jurisdiction of the stars. The knight monasteries in various places are subject to the dual jurisdiction of the Magic Spirit Tower and the knight monastery.
Naturally speaking, even if it is just a subsidiary of the Magic Spirit Tower, there is no star management.
"Either expand the enrollment or separate institutions. My lords, in my opinion, there are so many Lingxi Arcane mages in the tower, so we might as well dispatch all the Lingxi Arcane mages in the tower and set up two organizations to manage the miscellaneous things in the Erudite field.
" Director Lambton suggested for Sky Arcana Mage that he did not think highly of Lingxi Arcana Mage.
However, this move was not approved by everyone, and Duke even scolded: "Lingxi Arcana Mage is also Earth Arcana Mage, how can we treat him differently?"
Lambton immediately blushed, knowing that he might have offended Duke.
As we all know, all Lingxi Arcane mages have to express their gratitude to Duke, as they are Duke's most direct supporters.
Doesn't it mean that he despises the Lingxi Arcana Mage so much and shows disdain for the Lingxi Ring invented by Duke.
Fortunately, after decades of friendship, Lambton knew Duke's character and would not be resented just because of a careless remark.
"The Institute of Natural History can share some functions." Elaine said.
"Then let's expand. In the future, some conventional natural history inventions will be handed over to the Institute of Natural History for review, and the Supreme Committee will be liberated." Duke made the final decision, "The Institute of Natural History can be upgraded to the Museum of Austrian History, and the Museum of Natural History can be built in various places. Assist in the study of natural history."
After a pause, Duke continued: "In addition, outside the Erudite Tower, there is a new arcane technology institute, which is responsible for promoting new technologies of spiritual arcana. Boragu, are you willing to serve as the arcane technology institute? Dean of the Academy?"
"I do."
"Does anyone else have any opinions?"
"No."
Under Duke's quick and easy approach, the Erudite Tower has completely completed its reform. There is a Supreme Committee at the top and an Olympian at the bottom. French Museum and Austrian French Institute of Technology.
It was then sent to the Stars Meeting for discussion, and was quickly approved, officially starting the system reform.
In view of the reform of the Erudite Tower, the Magical Spirit Tower also underwent subsequent reforms, mainly to improve the status of the Nature Guild and to establish the Hermitage of All Things in the Holy City of Arcane, which corresponds to the Knights Hermitage and is responsible for the management of Qi Refiners. .
Frannie Sanduck, the 8th Ring Radiant Moon Arcane Instructor who serves as the dean of the Spiritual Plant Research Institute, also serves as the dean of the Hermitage of All Things.
She is not interested in the position of the Six Speakers. Instead, she wants to establish a more complete Qi Refiner practice system, so she has been studying the Qi of all things and constantly teaching a group of talented Qi Refiners to move towards higher levels. Level impact.
And she herself, in an environment where the energy of all things was thin, vaguely reached the stage of perfection as a fourth-level Elf Qi Refining Master.
All it takes is an opportunity to become a 5th level Elf Qi Refining Master.
It should be noted that Duke, who often travels across the cold desert continent to practice, is currently only a fifth-level elf Qi refining master and has not yet completed his cultivation.
"In the past few years, you don't seem to be interested in cultivating the Qi of all things." Franny Sanduck's sky clone has been staying in Duke's Sage Mage Tower. When she saw Duke, she deliberately persuaded him, " I hope you will pay more attention to it."
"The energy of all things is too thin, Franny." Duke said, deliberately reminding Franny Sanduck that studying the Qi Refining Ring too hard would be a waste of time.
"Although it is thin, haven't you noticed that the concentration of the energy of all things is showing an upward trend? I have visited various places and conducted research on the shadows of ancient times. I found that the concentration of the energy of all things now is at least higher than that in the Tori no Sora era. Twice as high."
"But Bird Sky is at least 50 million years away from us. It takes 50 million years for the concentration of the energy of all things to double, which is too long."
8 The lifespan of Huanyue Arcane Master, He is only four hundred and fifty years old.
In other words, in the era where Frannie Mergansers lived, the aura of all things would basically remain the same, and no changes would be seen unless she lived forever.
Frannie Sanduck frowned when she heard this: "So what, maybe if we study carefully, we can speed up the formation of the Qi of all things." "
It's difficult."
"It depends on man-made things."
"Okay, if you insist, I will hurry up to cultivate the Qi of all things and share my cultivation experience with you." Duke responded noncommittally. Anyway, he was going to travel across the cold and desolate continent to do research, so he would do it while practicing.
While the two were talking, Franny Mergansers' figure suddenly trembled, rippled like water waves for a moment, and became illusory.
"Duke, I have something urgent." After saying this, Franny Merganser's figure dispersed.
"Did you encounter any danger in the scarred earth ruins?" Duke looked at the clones that had just arrived and dispersed like this, and couldn't help but murmured a few words.
But he didn't take it to heart.
It is common for the clone to be interrupted when something happens to the real body.
However, one night passed, and the next day he received news that the eighteen stars headed by Thersus might be in danger.
In the Stars Conference Room.
Gianluca Zambrotta frowned deeply: "Since last night, Selsus and others have been unable to contact... After unanimous confirmation from the entourage, all eighteen stars and replica ring transmissions have failed. In other words, , we encountered a situation over there."
At first, it was just a family member of a certain Qunxing who came to see his own Qunxing, but when the replication ring was activated, there was no response.
Qunxing's family members didn't care either, thinking that Qunxing was delayed by something.
However, after asking other family members of Qunxing to let them know, I found that other people's Qunxing could not be reached either.
It was then discovered that all eighteen stars had lost contact.
"Duke, you are closest to the Earth Scar area. You first send people to the battleship station to investigate some situations." Zambrotta said.
"Don't worry, I'll go there myself." Duke dispersed the sky clone.
He inspired the ocean clone, directly manifested the hand of the forbidden technique, and cast the 7-ring forbidden technique - Long Wind Ten Thousand Miles, and arrived at the battleship station in a few steps.
The battleship is suspended on the edge of the scar on the earth. The personnel on the battleship are all normal, but they are also unable to contact the stars of each family.
From day to night.
A whole day and still no contact.
"We should just be trapped. Let's wait." Gianluca Zambrotta reassured everyone at the next day's star gathering. "When the stars fall, the world and the earth are sad. Duke Duo sent people to monitor the celestial phenomena around the scar on the earth. The second team of stars set off immediately to investigate the scar on the earth."
Originally, the stars were divided into three teams, with one team taking over from the other.
Now we just advance the replacement time. If Selsus and others return safely, everyone will naturally be happy. If there is still no news about Selsus and others, the stars will launch a rescue operation and must not let the stars die.
Otherwise, this will be the most tragic accident since the establishment of the Seven Towers Federation.
"It'll be fine." Timirasu Fengshen, who led the team, said calmly, "It's common to be troubled when exploring scars on the earth. Everyone, please work at ease and don't make any trouble." "You still have to be careful.
" Gianluca Zambrotta warned.
There are a total of fifty-five stars in the Federation, and Selsus and others are trapped. One-third of the stars have been lost. If Timirasu Fengshen leads the team, a third of the stars will be lost again. The Seven Towers Federation is finished, and the remaining eighteen stars are not enough to support it.
"I will bring them back safely." Timirasu Fengshen responded.
Immediately, he led seventeen stars, used magical powers, and moved forward quickly in a great movement, heading straight to the west of Cuihai City.
"Duke." Zambrotta looked at Duke again.
"Your Majesty, Speaker, what are your orders?"
"You must not go to the Scar of the Earth in person. You can only go as a clone to deliver news from the two places."
"Okay."
Even if Gianluca Zambrotta didn't remind him, Duke would not really do it. If he goes there in person, Thersus and other stars may fall, let alone him.
You can never be too careful when dealing with divine beings.
Dispersing his clones and returning his consciousness to his true body, Duke looked at the scene outside the window and fell into thinking: "Even the stars have fallen, including three 8-ring glowing moon arcane instructors... What is the danger of the ruins of the gods? , As far as this?"
At this moment.
He is even more eager to be promoted to the stars.
