my age of magic

Chapter 734. The whereabouts of those black magic crystals
A few of us sat around under the ancient war tree. The tauren Luka peeled off the last piece of hard carapace from the spider warlord, put it in the lake to wash away the blood and broken meat, and piled it aside like a hill. .

Those hard bug armors are the rich magic materials left to us by the spider warlords. These magic materials can be sold at a high price when brought back to Green Emperor.

It can be said that the most valuable thing on the Spider Warlord's body is not the 25 black magic crystals hidden in the bones, but the tough black beetle armor of the Warlord Spider. In terms of toughness, it is similar to bronze armor, but its own weight is only one-fifth of bronze plate armor.

I made a preliminary estimate that about ten sets of full-cover armor can be made. This kind of tough and light black bug armor is very popular among light cavalry. This kind of bug armor is expensive and requires frequent oiling and maintenance. It is a high-end armor.

However, this kind of carapace raw material is a bit troublesome to deal with. It is not as plastic as metal. Before sewing the carapaces, the leather makers need to soak the carapaces in special potion for a period of time before they can be cut to a suitable size, and then Put it into the mold and press it into the desired shape.

To make this kind of insect-like armor, the configuration of co-solvent and softening agent is the key. Once this agent is prepared with a slight deviation, it will affect the mechanical properties of the insect.

Because in the final molding, wooden molds are basically used to press and shape, so this kind of insect armor can be made to fit very well, and the entire wooden mold can be completely customized. This kind of light armor has a big market in Imperial City.

At this time, I came up with an idea, that is, those orc warriors were wearing some rough leather armor, and the styles looked varied, like a motley army, it would be better to use the carapace of the spider warlord to customize a batch of light armor armor.

In any case, hunting and killing a spider warlord this time can be said to be very rewarding.

Moreover, in the previous battles, I found that apart from having a hard armor and brute force, these spider warlords possessed very limited skills, nothing more than 'charge', 'cleave', 'half moon cut', and battle cry 'The more you know about these types, the more you can make hunting plans specifically for the spider warlord.

In front of me, there was a large sheet of black dark-striped spider skin. This spider skin was taken from the soft abdomen of the Spider Warlord. It was tough and exuded a faint shadowy aura.This piece of spider skin can be included in the category of advanced magic materials, and it can even be put up for auction in the Imperial Capital Auction House. This part is the best skin on the Spider Warlord's body. The slightly light-colored dark lines on it carry a trace of flowing shadow magic Breath, I believe it will be liked by professional assassins.

"Level three magic leather, and it is of the shadow attribute. In the Imperial Capital Auction House, the general price of this thing is about five magic crystals per square foot, which is not bad." Qige reached out and stroked the spider skin gently. The folds on the top, said calmly.

Kalantso sat leaning against the big tree, she put the double-edged sword flat on her lap, polished one edge with a whetstone, and asked me, "Jijia, think about how to deal with the next one." Is it just the spider warlord?"

In fact, I have nothing to do. After all, the Spider Warlord's strength is equivalent to that of a Rank [-] fighter. When facing us, his strength can almost crush everything.

Almost none of us can block the full blow of the spider warlord.

I shook my head, and then said: "Or lead him into a valley, and then try to activate the ice wall array, as long as the detonated ice wall can freeze his body, we can win!"

Qige asked me from the opposite side, ""Are you sure you can create enough ice walls before he kills you? "

I hesitated for a while, because I really didn't have much confidence. After all, I was a powerful spider warlord. Even if he stretched out a little finger, he could stab me to death. I said to Qige: "...Probably... I think there is still a chance!"

Qige disapproved of me taking the risk, after all, there was a difference of two ranks between me and the Spider Warlord.

She pressed me: "Or do you want those orc warriors to help you delay time, or the cannon fodder for those heavy infantry regiments in the valley?"

Then he showed a look of indifference, and said indifferently: "That's right, those soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment, as cannon fodder, should have the consciousness of cannon fodder!"

I knew Qig was sarcastic, but I had absolutely nothing to say.

Regarding the issue of the battalion of fighters who rescued Katerina, Qige and Kalancuo rarely had the same idea, and they opposed it.

As for the lizard maid Takama, she only obeys Qige's orders, while the tauren Luka has always stood firmly behind me, and he will stick to my decision to the end.

I shrugged and said to Qiger, "You know I don't think so!"

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the joy of seizing a large amount of loot was suddenly diluted a lot.

Qige looked at me seriously and said, "Then you still foolishly want to risk yourself? If that's the case, why don't we turn around and go back to Pereira City directly. As for the rescue or something, it should be Samo It's something Duke Jeda has to consider."

I sat on the root of the ancient war tree, with my head bowed and my face buried in my arms, before I said, "The battles here are meritorious, right?"

Maybe it was because the voice was a little low, Qige didn't hear it clearly, maybe she didn't understand what I meant.

"What?" she asked me.

As if I suddenly found the direction to fight for in my life, I raised my head firmly and said to Qige: "I mean, to marry a princess of the Green Empire, the worst thing you need is an earl Just do it, right?"

She seemed to understand what I meant, and stared at me with big watery eyes.

I went on to say: "If others know about our relationship now, and a magician nobleman has a love affair with the fiancée of the seventh prince of the Green Empire, what will happen?"

Scratching my messy hair, I didn't wait for Qige to say the answer, I answered my own question: "Maybe I will be sent to the noble council and sentenced as a blasphemer of royal power, right? In other words, With my current status, I don't even have the qualifications to compete with the Prince of Wales."

I reached out and grabbed Qigerou's soft hand, and then said to her with great certainty: "Whether I marry you or Yingli, I need a higher status, at least the earl of the empire, and I want to see Wales again. At least I can be at eye level with him. Therefore, I need some achievements on the battlefield."

Priest Angel Boulder probably refused me to see me because of this. She didn't agree with Yingli's choice, which means she indirectly denied me.

"Actually, there is a precedent for Green's princess to marry a baron..." After Qige finished speaking, her face flushed with embarrassment.

The scene suddenly quieted down, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

……

"My friend, do you want to deal with those spidermen?" Ancient War Tree suddenly opened his eyes and asked me, his voice was like thunder.

"Well, those spidermen trapped some of our companions." I said to the ancient tree of war, but I don't think it has the strength to defeat the second spider warlord.

"Then lead him to me, I can kill him!" His thick voice was very powerful, and he danced the thick vines, but it seemed that only one third of the vines were left , the scorched marks all over his body and the dry branches and yellow leaves made him look very embarrassed, but he seemed to be full of fighting spirit, and the leaves on the canopy rustled.

Glancing at the scattered leaves on the canopy, I sighed: "You should recover your self-cultivation! We, the Greens and the Nebulu spiders fought for the rich land, and you have nothing to do with those spiders. What kind of interest relationship, you don’t need to involve yourself, after all, if we are defeated, we can still pat our ass and leave, and you can only stay in this forest, and it is impossible to escape!”

It's hard to imagine, how on earth I did it, to have a heart-to-heart talk with a big tree about my future life, I think I'm crazy.

The ancient war tree shook the leaves on the top, it looked a little excited, and the loud voice made my eardrums 'buzz', I can't quite understand how a big tree can still have rich emotions, but the fact is In this way, this is an ancient tree of war with clear love and hatred.

This ancient war tree said to me: "These spiders are in the forest, wantonly destroying those children in the forest. They are in the forest, and every time they go to a large-scale web, they will destroy a large forest. Before I was sealed, and I didn't know that my people were suffering like this, but now I am awake, and I have established a new connection with the children in the forest. They are all complaining to me. This forest has suffered so much. We, like you, are also very eager to drive them out of this black forest for the destruction of the spider people."

The Ancient War Tree showed great sincerity, and said to me: "If you want to deal with those spidermen, the children in the forest and I can do our best to help you!"

"But you have been injured so badly, I think what you need most now is to take a good rest." I stood in front of the ancient war tree and said.

I just pulled this ancient war tree back from the shadow of death, and then this ancient war tree wanted to take revenge on those spiders who persecuted our compatriots. I thought: This is really a very vengeful ancient war tree .

The ancient war tree still didn't give up. Seeing me persuade him to take a good rest, he didn't argue, and said directly: "Even if I can't participate in the war, I can still help you in other ways. After all, this forest is my territory."

I was very curious about what kind of help this ancient war tree can give us, so I said to it: "Okay, then tell me, what can you do for me?"

There was a sense of pride in the voice of Ancient War Tree, and then he said bluntly: "I can provide you with some information."

I repeated in surprise: "Information?"

The ancient war tree said to me: "Yes, I can gain a lot of information about spidermen from the children in the surrounding forest. As long as there are trees growing, we can establish a connection. At that time, as long as you are in In the forest, I will be your eyes, so that those clansmen hiding in the forest have nowhere to hide."

If this is the case, we will be invincible if we can grasp the spider people's movements anytime and anywhere.

I couldn't help applauding Ancient War Tree and said, "This is definitely a good idea!"

The ancient war tree's simple and honest laughter was very loud, so I heard him say: "Okay, now, the first message I send you is: You keep walking in this direction, and when you are near the lake, there are A lot of precious gemstones are left behind in the clear lake water, if you look for them, you will definitely gain something.”

I asked, "Oh, what is it?"

"Black magic crystals, lots and lots of black magic crystals." Ancient War Tree replied truthfully.

……

The clear water of the lake kisses the delicate sandy beach on the shore of the lake, rolling up some white foam and piling up on the shore, like some melted snow.

The tens of thousands of ooze monsters in the swamp seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and all the dirty mud puddles disappeared, leaving a knee-deep clear shallow lake. With my magical perception, I can clearly feel it. There are countless essences of water elements in the lake, and they float in the clear water, making this clear shallow lake full of incomparably vivid atmosphere.

Sister Guoguo's water element spirit floats beside me, dancing happily all the time. The water element essence floating in the air around her body keeps gathering towards her body. Every time it flickers, its The body will become clearer.

The black magic crystals are like black rain flower stones, lying quietly on the sandy ground at the bottom of the lake.The gentle wind blows over the sparkling lake, and the reflection like fish scales is reflected on the sand at the bottom of the lake.An osprey skipped across the water like an arrow, the white striped fish in its beak was frantically wagging its tail.

Qige cheered, holding the long skirt with one hand, throwing off the short boots on her feet, and stepping into the shallow water. Her toes were like pure white pearls. She bent down and fished out a black devil from the lake. Jinglai yelled at me: "Jijia, come quickly! There are many more here."

I also secretly marveled in my heart, the information provided by this ancient war tree is really accurate!
…After the Ancient War Tree lifted the shadow system’s sealing circle and restored its original power, this muddy swamp began to fade a little bit, and finally the boundless swamp finally turned into a clear shallow lake, a swamp Countless ooze monsters also fled out of the range of the Ancient War Tree in haste, and those ooze monsters seemed to disappear little by little in the process of fleeing.

This place originally belonged to the edge of the swamp. Just a few days ago, [-] spider warriors and more than [-] giant spiders were swallowed and buried by the swamp mud. Being devoured by the gathered ooze monsters, it can be said that the hundreds of spider warriors were defeated by those oozes.

What then disappeared was naturally the precious black magic crystals in the skulls of those spider warriors. Almost every spider warrior skull contained a black magic crystal, and about one-fifth of the giant spider skulls also derived a black magic crystal. Out of the black magic crystals, I originally thought that these black magic crystals would be swallowed up by those ooze monsters, and they would never be found again.

I never thought that after Dustwallow Marsh disappeared, the lake here would return to the state it was before the ancient war tree was sealed, and those black magic crystals left in the swamp would turn out to be like crystal clear black stones. One after another, they appeared on the shallow water beach by the lake.

I stood barefoot in the clear and cold lake water, bent down to pick up the incomparably precious black 'pebbles'...
