Industrial Revolution of the Mage Lords

Chapter 167 Forum Online Help
Harvey searched almost every magic encyclopedia in the forum, but could not find any relevant information regarding the formula of the demon clan's secret medicine for strengthening and the soul-melting ore.

The Magic Encyclopedia is still in the stage of data compilation and uploading, and has not yet been officially opened to all forum members. Only the three new members from the Federation have been given access to facilitate them to complete the tedious work of uploading data day and night.

Perhaps it was because Mr. Burning Lord, the chief of the Federation, had a stereotyped impression of the Spellcaster Forum and subconsciously believed that all members of the forum were at least high-level spellcasters. As a result, all the research documents uploaded publicly were extremely profound and high-level knowledge, and some were even ancient documents from alien races that had not even been translated.

This was simply a crazy dance in Harvey's blind spot of knowledge, giving him the terrifying illusion that he had entered a dragon's treasury but could not take away a single shiny gold coin.

"Theoretical explanation of elemental control in modern magic systems..."

"A high-level comparative experiment between transformation spells and ancient illusion techniques..."

"A hypothesis about the application of shadow magic in the construction of the Nine Rings model..."

"Thoughts on the magic resistance of defensive Radiant Divine Arts..."

Harvey flipped through the dazzling and profound knowledge in the magic encyclopedia, and for the first time he truly felt that his originally smart brain was not enough.

"The people in the Federation are so honest! Can't they upload some easy-to-understand basic theories? Or even a few intermediate techniques that I can copy and learn..."

Sitting next to him, Asdaren, who also possessed a "magic brain" and assisted Harvey in reviewing the forum information, couldn't help but chuckle. "Sir, they assume that all the forum members are powerful high-level spellcasters. If they upload too much low-level magical knowledge, they are worried that the forum administrators will mistakenly think that they are perfunctory and dismissive of cooperation."

Harvey learned from his frequent exchanges with the Lord of Scorching that the Federation attached great importance to the cooperation with the Spellcaster Forum. When he, as the administrator Turing, publicly announced the news of the opening of an online magic encyclopedia at a regular exchange meeting, the forum members representing the elves and dwarves also expressed their high approval and attention to this matter.

Most progressive-minded spellcasters of the new era have long been disgusted with the traditional and conservative wizarding clan system of the past.

Although obtaining these advanced magical knowledge from the forum's magic encyclopedia also requires paying an extremely high price - a large amount of forum points.

However, the points-earning system in the forum is now very complete. Formal members only need to attend a spellcaster exchange meeting on time every week to get a guaranteed 10 points.

In the information exchange and anonymous consignment sections, you can sell rare magic materials, high-level spells, and unique secret knowledge in exchange for corresponding points. This is also an effective way to quickly accumulate points.

However, high-level spellcasters tend to be generous, resulting in them earning more points and spending more points. For example, the interesting adventure game "Magic Tower" that was suddenly opened some time ago has caused many members to become addicted to it. Some people have invested hundreds of points just to get on the tower climbing leaderboard and use points to draw powerful spell cards.

Most members also frequently use the forum's instant transmission service. Although the points paid for a single time are not many, they accumulate gradually and become a large amount of points expenditure.

Recently, Harvey has discovered through secretly peeking into the forum backstage that the points deposits of most members in the forum have been gradually decreasing or even reaching the bottom.

Only a few legendary spellcasters, such as the Scorching Lord and Shadow Knight, can barely maintain a three-digit accumulated points. The vast majority of the other members have very few points left.

Launching the online magic encyclopedia at this time is simply the right choice with the right timing, right location and right people!

No points left? No problem, trade your literature, research papers, and precious spells for them!

……

Phil Holden, codenamed "Son of Flame," was one of those "poor forum idiots" Harvey considered needing special attention. Ever since becoming addicted to the virtual adventure game "Tower of Magic," his daily verbal battles with his "arch-enemy," the Frost Giant, quickly shifted from information exchange to a fierce battle for the top three spots in the gaming rankings.

After discovering that the spell cards obtained from the "Magic Tower" could be freely traded in the forum, Fair spent a lot of effort, consumed a lot of points, and used threats and inducements to obtain several powerful purple spell cards from members with whom he had a good relationship, such as Magic Shield, Astrologer, and Elemental Hand.

This also helped him to rush to the third place in the tower climbing rankings that month, second only to Kel'Thuzad and the Scorching Overlord who were firmly in the top two, and squeezed out the Frost Giant who was originally in third place.

After the excitement, he naturally felt a sense of emptiness, especially when he saw that the number representing the points under his member code had turned into single digits, which made him feel even more anxious.

Therefore, he planned to spend all his time today in the information section of the forum, looking for transaction categories posted by other members to see if there were any opportunities to earn points.

"Huh? Someone actually asked about the Demonic Blood and Flesh Secret Medicine on the forum..."

Fair frowned, feeling a little confused.

Logically speaking, if one is a combat spellcaster registered with the Federation, and reaches a high level, he must have experienced the rotation mission in the Evil Moon Mountains, and he must have had experience in fighting with ordinary demon cavalry or spellcasting priests.

Then you must know clearly that the demon warriors have a special secret medicine for strengthening their flesh and blood, which needs to be taken regularly to maintain strong combat power.

Only those research-oriented spellcasters who stay in their own wizard towers all day long, never go out of the main door, and rarely have in-depth exchanges with other spellcasters, would be completely unaware of this.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Kel'Thuzad is actually a nerdy, research-oriented nerd in real life..."

Thinking about how the other party had been timid and silent when they had been exploring the magic network together, Felicity suddenly felt that the other party's online image matched his real identity, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Damn it, he's a top-ranked player in the Magic Tower game, but in real life, he's a timid, silent person who hasn't even been to the Demonic Battlefield. Hahahaha!"

War intelligence involving the demons is not something that must be kept confidential. The Federation and the Wizarding Alliance are eager to make it public. After all, this secret is almost equivalent to the demons' fatal weakness.

Fair immediately perked up and began typing away to answer the other party's questions.

[Son of Flame: The demons use a secret blood and flesh medicine to strengthen their soldiers' physiques. We actually obtained detailed intelligence on this long before the war between the two tribes broke out.]

[This information is almost semi-public within the Federation and the Wizarding Kingdom. Perhaps because you are not a member of the Federation, you have never been aware of it.]

[The demons need a rare magical mineral called the Soul-Melting Ore to prepare their flesh-strengthening potions. Currently, this mineral is only found in the core area of a large, naturally formed magic stone vein north of the Divine Spine Mountains. It is a magical mineral that looks like a crystal, but contains a liquid substance inside.]

After the demons mine these soul-melting ores, they fuse them with the flesh and blood of demon beasts according to the appropriate ratio. Then, using a special device called a "blood-summoning instrument," they transform them into potions, which are then sealed and stored in sealed containers.

[Furthermore, when the demon soldiers used these potions, they didn't take them directly. Instead, they injected them directly into their bodies through metal probes, allowing them to absorb the potion's properties directly. This was something we discovered and observed at great cost...]
