The mage arrives

Although the progress was smooth, after a night of hard work, Gordon only completed the transformation of one of the two heads.The complex geometric structure has been disassembled by Gordon, and only a diamond-shaped silver-gray metal plate remained in the end.

On the front of this metal plate is an excitation circle of dissociation technique.The arcane techniques in the Netherdulan era were somewhat different from the present, more complex, but also more powerful.

On the back of the metal plate is another magic circle that provides arcane energy for the disintegration magic circle.Originally, this magic circle was connected to the statue's body.Through a series of huge systems, the discrete source energy in the air is collected and stored for use by the magic circle.The principle is somewhat similar to solar panels.

It is precisely because the clumsy and huge statue body provides almost unlimited energy that the two statues can still function normally after so many years.

But now, Gordon needs to build another energy supply system.

It's not difficult.He is not the Arcanist of the Netherdulan Magic Empire who strives for excellence, and does not need to let the entire system survive thousands of years to be intact and function normally.In fact, this kind of abnormal project similar to a perpetual motion machine, I am afraid that only the powerful magic empire in the past has the resources and ability to turn it from a paper design into a reality.

Now, Gordon just needs a fast, reliable, and usable device, and it's installed on the activation shield.

It is also very simple to find alternative energy sources, and a single chrysoberyl can meet the demand.

Different from the pure decorations on the earth, all kinds of gems in the world of Telos are the best storage medium for arcane energy.Chrysoberyl is used in a wide variety of magical items associated with the School of Transmutation.It's just that to meet the energy requirements of a six-level dissociation spell circle, ordinary chrysoberyl is not enough.

After searching among the trophies, Gordon successfully found a piece of fine chrysoberyl the size of a baby's fist.

He took this radiant gem and the modified metal plate to the basement of Freeman's mansion.This was originally the wine cellar built by my father - almost in every noble's home.There is such a place.But for a mage, the wine cellar is obviously a redundant facility.So when Gordon was repairing the mansion, he transformed it into a spell training ground.

In the middle of the training ground, there is a dummy.Its body is extracted from an ooze, a weak monster similar to slimes in video games.The orange-yellow gel was similar in strength to the human body, so it was perfect as a spell target.And going a step further, Gordon also wore a set of standard steel armor used by the Freyton military's heavy infantry on the dummy.

Such a target would allow Gordon to better assess the power of spells.

Gordon took the chrysoberyl and set it in a groove he had specially made on the metal plate.Then, the mage who worked all night was still full of energy and recited the activation password.

After a few exquisite Neisser words popped out of his mouth, the magic circle on the metal plate suddenly burst into white light.Then it started humming.

The energy in the chrysoberyl is quickly absorbed and transformed into transparency.After the entire metal plate absorbed enough energy, it began to vibrate more and more violently.

"This seems a little different from what I thought..."

Gordon immediately sensed something was wrong.But before he could throw away the nearly out-of-control metal plate in his hand, a dark green dissociation beam flew out, hitting the dummy five meters away.at the same time.The metal plate in his hand glowed with dazzling light...

Bang!

After the chaos, Gordon dispersed the smoke and dust that filled the surroundings.Wave.Dispel all kinds of magical auras covering the body.Fortunately, before starting to test the power of the metal plate, he had the foresight to bless himself with various protective spells.

In history—whether it is the game history of "Ancient Era" or the real history of the world of Telos, there are countless mages who have paid a heavy price because of the failure of magic experiments.The lucky ones among them may have died in the violent explosion on the spot.No bones remained.You heard me right, it is very lucky to die in a test accident.Those unlucky ones are likely to be directly eroded by the twisted and rampant arcane energy.He contracted a terrible disease that tortured his whole life, and his life was worse than death.Even, transformed into an irrational twisted monster.

In "Ancient Era", "Fernando's Laboratory", which was rated as one of the ten most terrifying dungeons, the background of the story is that a high-ranking mage named Fernando turned into a terrible monster due to a spell experiment accident. The tragedy of losing his mind and killing his wife and daughter.

Of course, for the mentally resolute, or nerve-wracking Gordon, he remembered the game copy not because of its terrifying environment, but because he was a college student at the time, and with this copy, he managed to catch up with a Playing games, she looks cool but is actually a timid senior, and has successfully ended her virginity.

After the explosion, fragments of the metal plates scattered, many deeply embedded in the wooden floors and walls.If there is no magic protection, Gordon, relying on his physique far beyond ordinary people, even if he is not killed by the bomb, serious injuries are inevitable.

He struggled to pull out all the fragments inlaid on the floor, and studied them carefully, hoping to find out where the problem was.

"At least the disintegration technique on the magic circle was launched smoothly." Gordon looked at the dummy whose entire armor was reduced to powder, and whose body looked like a big piece had been dug out by a big spoon, and said to himself.

The activation system for spells works well.As for the explosion just now, it was probably caused by the failure to control the energy supply.

After working all night, Gordon was a little tired.He decided not to push himself any further, put down the work at hand, and returned to the room.

When I woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.After meditating and re-preparing his spells for the day, he came to the restaurant.Shelley seemed to have something to go out, Gordon finished his meal alone, and then went out.

He decided to go to the blacksmith's workshop of Master Dwemer Iron River.

During the shortened winter days, the dwarf used to work only until four o'clock in the afternoon, and then went to the familiar tavern for a hearty drink.If Gordon didn't hurry up, he might only see a drunk who was full of nonsense and only focused on pouring wine into his belly.

Arriving at Dwemer Iron River's workshop with ease, Gordon found that he was lucky. The dwarf master was finishing his day's work and hadn't left yet.

Seeing a figure that was significantly taller than the surrounding dwarves appearing in the workshop, the Dwemer immediately looked over.When it was clear that it was Gordon who came, the dwarf master who had scolded those lazy apprentices with a straight face all day, stepped forward to greet him as if he had seen the most delicious wine.

"Hey, Gordon, Dwemer's closest friend! The Iron River Tribe's eternal guest! I didn't expect to see you so soon. I've heard about the autumn hunt. I thought you'd be back in a few days." .” The dwarf jumped up and gave Gordon a hug so hard that the latter could barely keep his center of gravity.

Although in terms of geometric projection, Gordon as a human is nearly twice as big as Dwarven Iron River as a dwarf.But the dwarf was heavier than Gordon.One can imagine the density of its body.No wonder the dwarves call themselves sons of the rock, maybe they are really made of stone.

Gordon smiled wryly and explained: "The lord opened a portal for me, let me come back first."

"It seems that you have won the trust of the Grand Duke." Dwemer let go of Gordon's arms that were like steel, "This time the autumn hunting has caused a lot of trouble, and the entire Clear Water City is in chaos. The honeycomb that was pierced by the bear... The weeping and crying ladies went to the temple to hold prayer ceremonies every day, hoping that the family members who participated in the autumn hunting would return safely. You can find flower baskets and candles praying for you at any time in the streets and alleys... You You know, we dwarves hate these flowers and plants the most!"

Dwemer Iron River blew his beard and continued to complain: "Also, every day those temple apologist warriors, conversion knights, trial monks, and other various annoying guys, all in the name of arresting demon cult followers, in the name of Searching around the city has made people uneasy. Dashan and Moradin bless you! All this chaos is finally coming to an end!"

Such a major event as the demon's invasion of the main material plane will inevitably lead to a large chain reaction.All kinds of martial law and searches are foreseeable.But Gordon doesn't think these measures will have any effect other than creating chaos and inconvenience to the residents of Clearwater.

The two chatted for a while, and Gordon learned from Dwarven Tiehe what happened in Clear Water City after he left, and the conversation finally came to the point.

Gordon and Master Dwarf came to the spacious backyard.The mage stroked the dark green spinel necklace around his neck, spoke the password, and summoned the blade golem.Immediately afterwards, he also took out the damaged activation shield.

"Haha, you've been out for a while, it seems that you have experienced quite a fierce battle!" Dwemer Tiehe laughed, picked up Gordon's activated shield, and gently stroked the cracks on the surface of the shield with his rough hands.

"I want to take it easy and defeat the enemy with just a lift of a finger." Gordon shrugged helplessly.

Dwemer Tiehe felt the damage of the activation shield with his hands, while sinking his head in thought.After a while, he raised his head and said to Gordon: "The damage to the shield should be caused by the dissociation technique. Fortunately, the internal structure is not damaged."

This shield was forged by the dwarf master himself, and he knew it well, so he fully grasped the current condition of the shield just by looking and touching it.

"It's very simple to repair. I just bought a few pieces of pure gold from the west the day before yesterday. It was originally used to make a battle ax for Earl Ashley, and now I will use it for you first."

"This is not good..."

"What's wrong? Just let that idiot earl wait, your business is important." Dwarven Tiehe's temper was as hot as ever, and he didn't take the earl seriously at all. (to be continued..)
