Above the mage

Chapter 91 [Blade Protection+]

Gaode was even more satisfied.

Finally, he received an extra 7 gold coins as a reward from the staff.

—This is indeed Gaode's record; there is no exaggeration.

Adding the initial reward of 5 gold coins, the total is 12 gold coins.

For him, this was just an extra bonus; the most important gain was yet to come.

origin:

0 rings - [Ferocious Bat] (7/7)

After many days, I finally gained some new origin.

This even made Gaode somewhat look forward to another leyline creature attack on the city.

After all, the feeling of getting something for free is indeed refreshing.

With the battle over, the alarm in Bremen was finally lifted.

Because of the timely discovery, Bremen's defenses were far superior to those of the ferocious bats.

Therefore, this attack on the city by the ferocious bats did not cause any damage or harm to the city.

A perfect defensive operation.

Upon returning to his home at 437 Carmond, Goddard, whose mana was depleted, did not immediately attempt to replenish his mana.

He has more important things to do right now.

"Wind Spirit Moon Shadow".

He skillfully opened the rudimentary information interface and focused his attention on the dozen or so spells flashing yellow plus signs on the spell bar. A thought struck him, and he made a decision.

"Add some points!"

The Big Dipper, representing the origin of the ferocious bat, flew out.

The target is the spell model for [Blade Protection].

After a familiar "cutscene," the flashing yellow plus sign after the [Blade Protection] attribute disappeared.

Its name has also been changed to [Blade Protection+].

【Blade Protection+】(Protection system, 0 rings)

Reach out and draw a protective mark in the air to make yourself resistant to blunt force, piercing, and slashing damage from weapon attacks.

Additional: You can skip the action of drawing the protective mark when casting spells.

By evening, Bremen City had safely weathered the morning's leyline creature attack and quickly returned to its usual bustling state.

The anxiety and tension of the morning turned into conversation topics at dinner.

However, the words "rebirth of the earth's veins" still made the people of Bremen, who had some knowledge, feel uncertain and began to inquire about the specifics.

Most people understand that the morning's ley line creature attack on the city is just a tiny bonus in the "ley line regeneration" process.

The impact of the regeneration of ley lines will be extremely profound.

For at least this period of time, no one dares to easily leave the city to hunt or engage in intercity trade.

"Based on past patterns and experience, the rebirth of a new ley line, even if it's just the lowest level three, is enough to cause a major change in the landscape of an entire region," Pierre said to God.

"Level three ley lines?" After fully restoring his mana, Godd came to Pierre to learn more, and sure enough, he gained some new knowledge.

"The ley lines are essentially a dimensional channel formed by the intersection and fusion of our mage plane and the ley line plane."

"Roads, of course, come in different sizes."

"Anything larger than the size of the channel cannot squeeze through the dimensional channel. Otherwise, it will either get stuck in the channel or directly cause the dimensional channel to collapse."

"As for the interdimensional passage, its size refers to the maximum energy level it can withstand. For travelers between two dimensions, their level is their volume."

"A level three ley line means that this ley line can only be passed through by creatures of the highest level (3rd ring).

"Among the ley lines that have appeared so far, the lowest level is level three, so everyone has set level three as the minimum standard for ley lines," Pierre explained to God.

"And the original ley line in our Bremen region was a level four ley line."

Level 4 ley lines are those that can allow ley line creatures of the highest level (around 4 rings) to pass through.

"Mage Plane. Earth Vein Plane," Gao De repeated these two terms, full of doubt.

"Don't ask me. I only know the facts, not the reasons. I just know this saying. If you really want me to explain it in detail, I can't give you a clear answer." Pierre spread his hands, quite honestly.

In the end, he was just a more senior rogue mage.

His knowledge is certainly greater than Gao Deguang's, but it is still limited.

"Every newly formed ley line attracts countless ley line creatures to the area, and in most cases, these creatures are those that have never appeared in this region before," Pierre remarked.

"Because there are just too many kinds of creatures living in the earth's veins."

"This is a natural disaster for the local residents, but it may be an opportunity for the monk."

"The Bremen area is going to get lively from now on; there might even be mages from other regions coming to try their luck."

"How so?" Gao De asked curiously.

"Each time the earth's ley lines are regenerated, it is accompanied by violent earthquakes, which bring about an extremely strong magic enrichment effect, and then form an area with extremely high magic power around the ley lines."

"The appearance of areas with extremely high magic power will bring a large number of rare magical plants and magical ores."

"In other words, the area surrounding the newly formed ley lines during this period is an untapped gold mine."

"Even without considering these factors, the large number of ley line creatures brought by the newly formed ley lines, provided they can be successfully suppressed, would be a great asset to mages."

"These ley line creatures are mostly very valuable."

"Many magical materials that could only be purchased from other places before will now have the opportunity to be obtained locally."

"It may even lead to the emergence of many new industries."

Gaode nodded in agreement.

In a game, this would be equivalent to the appearance of a new "monster spawn point" in a certain area, which would naturally be a welcome development for the "players" in that area.

"However, all of this is predicated on the ability to suppress the first few waves of ley line creature riots caused by the regeneration of ley lines."

"That depends on the power of the authorities."

Pierre sighed, his voice heavy, and said, "I've inquired with my mage friends in the Emerald Alliance. Hogan City already fell in the first wave of leyline creature riots."

Gao De was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "After all, in the Bremen region, Hogan is the weakest city, and the ley lines just happen to grow around it."

Therefore, Hogan faces the greatest threat of all the cities in the Bremen region.

"There must have been at least ten or more third-ring ley line creatures attacking Hogan City at the same time, otherwise, with the alchemical weapons equipped in Hogan City, it shouldn't have fallen so quickly."

"If it's just a level 3 ley line creature, that's fine. The problem is that this newly formed ley line is more than just a level 3 ley line."

Let's wait for official news.

"They need to determine the grade of this newly formed ley line and quell the riotous ley line creatures."

"Has the authorities not taken any action yet?" Gao De asked.

Pierre shook his head. "One region's official power is not enough to support a newly formed ley line."

"We have to wait," Pierre said, raising his index finger and pointing upwards. "It would be safer if someone came from up there."

Gao De nodded slightly, knowing that Pierre was referring to Saint-Sien.
