Chapter 130: Jason's Gift (Part II)
Saleen was seen through by Jason. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I have a lot of high-grade blank scrolls on hand now, and I see that there are a lot of magicians on the island, so I want to ......"
"Leave the scroll, and I'll have them give it to you. This is not a problem, and for the Magician, drawing scrolls is also a learning process. The most troublesome thing is the lack of materials, there are many monsters on the sea, but it is difficult to find materials that are suitable for making high-grade scrolls. As long as you have a blank scroll of the same level, I will replace it all for you. β
Jason's generosity exceeded Saleen's expectations, but he soon understood that on this island, the purpose of the scroll was not to fight, but to practice magic. I don't know how many magicians have drawn scrolls left over the millennium, and these magicians are not short of money, but lack of materials.
"Forget it, Salin, I'll call Rex up and figure out what you need. Jason said, activating the sound transmission magic array, summoning Rex to the seventh floor of the magic tower.
Rex regained her former self. Seeing Jason, he still saluted respectfully, as if Jason hadn't said anything to her that embarrassed her.
"Rex, Shreg Island is going to be closed, and Saleen plans to leave early. β
"What......?
"We'll talk about the half-plane later, and it will take at least three years to seal the island. Didn't you say that you want Saleen to build a place comparable to an alchemy city in the north to arrange a plane teleportation array? Then I will give you three years, and if this city can be established after three years, we will talk about the half-plane matter. β
Rex glanced at Salin, who nodded at her, and Rex said helplessly, "Master Jason, then I'll wait for your news." β
"Well, now let's talk about what it takes to build this city. Jason asked Rex and Salin to come to his alchemy table, took out a large drawing, and laid it out. The magic array on the alchemy table was activated, and three-dimensional magic images flashed, which was the prototype of a city. β
Many cities were designed by magicians, and Qin Yin's city was even more so. The city designed by the magicians is highly defended, well-laid out and has a good drainage system.
"This is a city I designed, you see, how about it?" Jason was visibly a little proud, designing a city is not a serious thing for a magician, looking at Jason's expression. Apparently he has a preference for this kind of thing.
This city drawing is just the basics, and Saleen likes it as soon as he sees it. The city in the magical image sits half in the water and half on land, creating a perfect balance. On the waterfront side, every 500 meters is a thick stone pillar, a total of twelve stone pillars, on which a metal covered bridge is erected, all designed with exquisite magic patterns, it looks like a water temple.
According to the magic marker, these stone pillars are twelve meters in diameter, towering into the sky, deep into the water, and behind the stone pillars is a platform, which is divided into two layers. The upper floor is a pier, but the lower floor is hollow, with a 100-meter entry into the water. The hollow part under the platform is a magic circle that can be used to unleash magic underwater and attack intruders on the surface.
Such a design avoids the embarrassment of the appearance of a fortress on the pier and occupies space. Salin remembered the Turtle Alchemy Ship made by Rex, which happened to be lurking inside. The pier is flanked by tall magic towers facing the water, and the design of the magic towers is very old. Looks similar to Rafal's Magic Tower.
The most heart-warming thing is that this design allows the magic tower to only control the water behind the twelve stone pillars, beyond which only exquisite porticos can be seen, without any smell of war.
Behind the pier are palace-like buildings, and Saleen sees traces of the palace of the Holy Rock City. The large doorway allows the mechanical golems to come and go at will, and the warehouse is designed to be half underground and half above ground. Metal slides are designed on both sides of the pier to accommodate large vehicles to transport goods unloaded from ships.
There are quite a few large sculptures in the palace complex, which are nothing more than puppets, and with enough magicians, they can quickly deliver goods even without workers.
"yes, that's a wonderful design!" Rex looked at it and was impressed. The city could build a dock and then use it to transport materials much faster than on land. And if the site is properly selected, the waste stone from the construction of the pier can also fill the part of the land, and push it down layer by layer, without wasting time and space.
A large number of magic towers have been established in the cities in the land part, and these magic towers form a larger magic array, echoing each other, and the entire city is under the control of dozens of magic towers, forming a magic network. This magical network provides power to the entire city, and the magicians in this city can exert several times or even dozens of times more than the mages themselves in the magic tower.
The walls on the land side are even more bizarre, all made of huge stones of different colors. The stones of different colors are clearly composed according to Dante's sequence. The gaps between the sequences formed six stone gates, and the head of the city was even more strange, and the huge spaces formed by the stones seemed to have countless stone houses built on this city wall.
The entire land part of the city is composed of various magic sequences and formulas, except for the magic tower, the covered bridge, and the main road that can pass through the chariot, the rest of the city has only sparse buildings, and there are no designed dwellings.
It's an incomparably complex structure, and the whole city is a huge magic formula, and Saleen is dazzled to see it, the teacher's design has surpassed the ordinary sense of the city, this is really a magic city built for magicians.
Beneath the city is not only the drainage system, but also the three-story passage. The lowest floor leads to warehouses, all of which are connected to the docks. These warehouses and magic towers echo each other, each with a one-to-one storage space. This design basically does not consume any energy, just to ensure that the contents of the warehouse do not rot and deteriorate.
"How much will it cost to build this!" Salin couldn't help but marvel at the underground part.
"You can't buy the materials to build the main part of the city, but there are quite a few on Shrig Island. Jason replied with a smile.
"What can I trade it for?" Rex certainly understood what Jason meant. This drawing is full of the idea of a magician's genius, which is priceless in itself. If the materials were still for Jason to come out, she wouldn't dare to accept it.
"I can ask for whatever you want. β
When Rex heard this, he was finally relieved. Jason didn't want to embarrass her, as long as the things she took out were worth enough to exchange them for materials to build the main body of the city. It doesn't matter if the items she provides are urgently needed by Jason.
Rex simply took off a ring on his hand, handed it to Jason, and said, "This is something my father left me, I think it can be worthy of your gift." β
Jason turned out to be a ring, probed, a little surprised, and said: "This strange thing turned out to be in the Grykos family, I don't understand, why didn't your father build this city." If this city is built, unless the Lord of Radiance descends on this continent, the GrΓΌkos family don't have to care about the Holy See at all, right?"
Saleen didn't know what Rex took out, and looked at the ring in Jason's hand with some curiosity, Jason glared at Saleen, and said to Rex, "Why didn't you take this out earlier and exchange it with me?"
Rex smiled bitterly: "If you want to build this city, the materials you need can't be collected in the Myers Continent at all. I don't think you'll be interested in this, but it's the best thing I can come up with, just to show my appreciation to you. β
"The research value is huge!" Jason hesitated, holding the ring in his hand. He came up with this blueprint this time to help Salin, and Rex's thanks were a little too precious.
"It's nothing, I don't think you would refuse to teach it to me if you had studied everything in this drawing, Master. Rex replied with a smile.
"Teacher, what the hell is this?"
"Ask Rex yourself, I only know the general idea of this thing. Looks like I'm going to give you something good. Jason said, beckoning Saleen and Rex to the teleportation magic circle.
"Come with me to Lancelot, I don't have that right now. β
Rex secretly rejoiced that her things could not be completed, and the drawings Jason gave her were really good things. If the city on this drawing is built, it is not comparable to the alchemy city, at least it is not much different. Salin's teacher had all that was in his head to design such a city.
"Rex, what did you give the teacher?"
"Heart of the Sky. β
"What's that?" Salin didn't react for a moment.
"It is the core blueprint for the establishment of Sky City during the First Dynasty. β
"Ahem......" Salin coughed violently. Humans during the First Dynasty were also able to travel through the planes without any teleportation arrays, relying entirely on their own strength. At that time, many cities were floating in the sky. The strong don't bother to compete with the weak on land, they are high above and don't pay much attention to the rulers of the dynasty.
There were still some cities in the sky during the Second Dynasty, and by the time of the Third Dynasty, they had all crashed. The remains of those cities were also demolished, destroyed. Now there is not a single skeleton of even some size on the continent, let alone the core blueprint of the Sky City. This technology has disappeared with the weakening of humanity.
Rex gave Jason, it turned out to be this.
"Teacher, what are you going to come up with?" The magic light flashed, and the three of them came to the outside of the magic tower, and Salin pulled Jason's sleeve. Follow-up.
"The materials for the construction of the thirty-six magic towers, and the real blueprints of the walls. Jason looked at his students and thought to himself, if the two are not comparable in terms of research value. However, many of the materials of Sky City are unique to other planes, and they cannot be built at all. His own gift can be regarded as equivalent to Rex's thanks.
