Chapter 144 True Necromancer
"Are you okay?"
Zou Peng suddenly popped his head out from the stairs and asked.
"Hey, are you ready?"
Zou Peng walked over curiously.
"It seems much more beautiful, these patterns, these mercury, etc., is it mercury poisoning?"
Mo Lan hesitated when he heard this.
"Shouldn't it be...?"
"Um, let me ask you, are you sure you don't want to ask a stone carving master to carve it? I know a good master."
"No need, I have my own plans for the decoration of the Mage Tower."
"Okay, then go on. Sorry for interrupting you ."
Zou Peng spoke quickly, turned around and wanted to slip away, but at this time Mo Lan suddenly called him.
"You said the elements have colors?"
Mo Lan’s words stunned Zou Peng.
"Hmm? What do you mean? Maybe. After all, our fighting spirit has colors when it bursts out. Isn't that the color of the elements?
And don’t you mages often say that the environment is full of colorful elements? Since you all say that, there must be colors, right? "
"So do you want to see it for yourself?"
"Um?"
Zou Peng looked at him in confusion, but Mo Lan pointed to the element pool.
Zou Peng looked at the elemental pool, but after a long time he saw nothing.
Just as I was about to ask a question, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something extra in the pool.
I saw wisps of something like smoke appearing out of nowhere and filling the center of the pool.
Warm red, light cyan, heavy yellow, vibrant blue...
Wisps of smoke, bright colors, four element pools, four different colors, Zou Peng suddenly felt something.
“Is this the color of the element?”
"Yes."
Mo Lan could see more from the perspective of his spiritual power. The elemental light spots were sucked into the elemental pool, and the dense light spots soon filled the elemental pool.
However, the element pool is still running, and a steady stream of elements are being absorbed into it.
However, all elements are full of inertia under the suppression of the element pool and are not as active as the outside world.
Just when Zou Peng was called out, the elements that were originally just spots of light gradually gathered together and turned into wisps, like gas, and also revealed their shape.
"Zou Peng, do you know? The gas revealed here is almost equivalent to your energy level."
Zou Peng: "...Thank you, I am offended."
Mo Lan smiled when he heard that.
“I don’t mean to say you’re a bad cook, I just want to tell you and give you an idea.
What a terrifying amount of energy it would be if all four element pools were filled.
And if the elements could be liquefied, how terrifying it would be."
Mo Lan’s words stunned Zou Peng.
"Will it become a real elemental pool?"
Mo Lan smiled.
"Who knows?"
Mo Lan walked out of the basement, walked out of the Mage Tower, and looked up at the towering white tower from the outside.
While sighing in his heart, Mo Lan was also silently calculating.
Size, direction, position, one data after another was silently deduced in Mo Lan's mind.
The data of water shield technique was substituted into it, deduction was added, and finally, the optimal solution was obtained during the high-speed rotation of the ink cartridge.
“Hopefully, the accumulation of quantity will lead to qualitative change.”
Mo Lan murmured, looking at the layout in his mind. After preparing the mercury, Mo Lan began to work.
"Water Shield, a second-level spell, forty-five spell nodes.
The Mage Tower has six sides and five floors...a total of forty-five water shield spells are deployed, achieving a spell resonance and forming a giant water shield covering the entire Mage Tower. "
Water Shield is a second-level spell with forty-five spell nodes, which means that forty-five mages are required to complete the spell resonance of Water Shield.
The difficulty of this is much higher than that of Fireball, Earth Wall and other spells which only have a dozen or twenty spell nodes. Of course, the effect is also much higher.
It is like the effect increases exponentially, the larger the base number, the greater the increase in effect, and the greater the gap with a small base number.
Mo Lan walked up with a bucket of mercury, starting from the top of the tower. The water shield spell model on the top of the tower will become the core node of the spell resonance of forty-five spell models.
Mo Lan chose to stabilize the core first, and then determine the remaining spell nodes according to the position of the core.
Grab the mercury, adjust the frequency, and achieve resonance!
Mercury sank into the stone bit by bit, and spell nodes were formed one after another. Silvery-white mercury lines extended from the spell nodes to form an energy circuit.
Mo Lan is still drawing spell models, but he used to draw planes, but now he is drawing three-dimensional models.
Time passed slowly. While Mo Lan was building the mage tower, the others were not idle either. At this time, the president of the Niehuo Guild had already returned to the guild.
The headquarters of the Niehuo Guild is in a huge valley, which is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with only a path a few meters wide leading to the outside world.
Inside the valley is a flat, fertile land with a wide river flowing slowly in the center.
The people from the Niehuo Guild built a fortress at the trail, and villages and towns in the valley. Large tracts of open land have been reclaimed and planted with a variety of vegetables, fruits, and grains.
There is a corner of the valley that is shrouded in the shadow of a mountain. The location of that corner is very peculiar. No matter what time it is, there is always the shadow of a mountain covering it.
Although this place is open to the sky, the sun can never be seen no matter what season or time it is, and it is always covered in shadow.
This area favored by shadows is littered with pale skeletons, wolves, bears, tigers, leopards, and pigs. It seems like a natural cemetery where countless beasts have died. The ground is filled with skeletons and the surface is also covered with them.
As soon as you enter this area, you will feel a little chilly.
"Damn it, who leaked the news that we were researching necromancers? Who was it! Who was it!"
Geng Tao shouted loudly, and the vice president next to him whispered.
"Didn't you brag about it last time?"
Geng Tao's tone paused.
"Oh, so it was me who said it. That's fine."
"How's the progress? Is there any new progress?"
Geng Tao asked as if nothing had happened. The vice president curled his lips and muttered something before speaking.
"This energy that emanates from bones and corpses... well, that is, dead energy is indeed useful. We have preliminarily determined that dead energy is not an element.
In other words, as long as we don’t gather spell slots, we won’t be considered a mage if we use this dead energy to cast spells. This will initially lay the foundation for a new profession.”
"What about the effect of death energy?"
Geng Tao's question made the vice president smile.
“We have managed to animate the skeletons of some dead beasts.
Death energy can make their skeletons harder, increase their strength and speed. In short, it can improve their strength in all aspects.
However, once your strength reaches a certain limit, the amount of dead energy required for further improvement will increase exponentially.
The better the quality of the skeleton, the higher this limit will be, and the stronger our strength will be after resurrection.
Now we are mainly facing three problems: how to carry dead energy, control dead energy, and control the resurrected undead creatures. As long as these three problems are solved, we can definitely form a brand new profession..."
The vice president looked at Geng Tao and spoke slowly.
"Necromancer!"
Geng Tao smiled when he heard that and looked into the distance.
"Yi Fei, Zuo Qingwen, Lao Li, maybe I should go first, what about you?"
Geng Tao grinned, very brightly.
"Necromancer!"
