Chapter 10 New Magic New Ocean
A giant carriage was running on the main sandy and gravel roads, patrolling the entire territory. Now, the plains of the entire territory have basically been developed into pieces of farmland, with sweet red beans, spice plants, grains, and various fruits and melons.
On the hills, there is basically no development - or it is not allowed to be developed, because the Elf Temple thinks it is a natural reserve. Annien also thinks that if this island is not rich in vegetation to accumulate soil and water, it may have bad consequences when the rainfall is very abundant, so he issued an order to prohibit the development of mountains and forests - of course, more consequences may be the influence of the Mage Tower. After the Mage Tower is built, six major energy sources can be used to make limited adjustments to the climate on the island. In addition, the Mage Tower constantly condenses magic power, so although the magic concentration on the island is not nearly twice as high as that of Moon City, it is generally about 10%. Therefore, various trees and crops on the hills and flat grounds grow quite lushly, and the harvest will increase by about 20%. Don’t underestimate these 20%, it will have a very big impact on the life of the tenant farmers and the economic cycle in the territory.
The moon of the blessed sun (June), the rainy season has begun, so when traveling with a carriage, you often encounter showers. However, there is no impact on the carriage. This is not because the carriage is of good material, but because of a small magic circle built on the carriage.
After obtaining a large amount of magical materials, Annien discovered thousands of research topics of magicians, most of which were not completed, or simply a kind of inspiration. As we all know, most of the inspirations generated during magic research are limited to time, energy, and financial resources, and cannot be studied, and can only be recorded. And among the magical materials, especially some materials in the palace, these have begun. There are countless magical inspirations that have not been studied.
The constant temperature and waterproof ground magic array is one of them. After the intelligent brain completes the juxtaposition of the earth element and the fire element, the calculation speed has greatly increased and logical deductions can be performed. Annien now only needs to design an outline and master the direction. As for the specific technical details, they can be calculated by the intelligent brain. Therefore, this second-level spell called "Annien Constant Thermal Technique" was easily created.
To put it bluntly. This is a magic air conditioner that can keep the temperature constant within the range of 5 feet + 1 feet/level. The original temperature is maintained between 15 degrees and 25 degrees. It can be adjusted and protected against rain and snowflakes. It can be constant on magic robes and equipment. Although it cannot protect any weapons and magic attacks, the comfort level is greatly improved. It is warm in winter and cool in summer!
Like any kind of spell, the magician's level also has a considerable relationship with the temperature regulation. Basically every 2 degrees/level, that is, with Ann's current mage level between level 9 and level 10, its regulation range is between (25+18) degrees - (15-18) degrees - the external temperature is below 43 degrees, or it is colder to above minus 3 degrees. This magic can work normally, but if it exceeds it, it will not work normally.
After confirming that it was completed, and experimenting with it, the effect was immediately reflected in the carriage and magic robe. Unfortunately, this spell has a time limit. It is basically 1+1 hour/level. If it is constant with the magic array (there is no need for level 5 magic constant magic, but materials are required). The time is 5 hours/level, that is, with the power of Annien, if he casts the spell himself, it can last about 10 hours. If a magic array is formed with magic materials, only magic power is needed. Annien's injection can last for 45 hours at a time. At this time, even a first-level mage or even a magic apprentice can inject magic into the already built magic air conditioner to start.
The elf Paliya thought it was very good, so she wanted him to study how to make the priests use and enjoy it too. This issue was completed after a week with Paliya's cooperation. After all, the essence of divine art is the same as magic. Except for one passing through the magic net and the other passing through the god, it can be completed with just a little adjustment.
After this spell was clearly successful, he reported it to the Magician Union, so he immediately received the recognition from the Magician Union and directly issued a reward of 10,000 gold coins. According to regulations, within 10 years, any magician who built and used this magic must pay him one tenth of money.
I originally wanted to enjoy magical air conditioners, but at least I had to enjoy them in a special mage tower. Now, most magicians can enjoy them, and even those who are not magicians can enjoy them. Just spend money to hire a magician to build a magical air conditioner for it, and ask a magician to inject magic power into him for a few days - they can still bear the price of a second-level magical land.
What surprised Annien was that almost all temples thought that this cheap and affordable magic was very good, so they wanted to build a magic air conditioner in the temple. Overnight, as the creator of the magic land, his name was immediately known to most temples, magic unions, nobles and palaces on the mainland. Therefore, he was praised as a rare magic genius and future great wizards for hundreds of years - this influence was very far-reaching. It was not only a patent income of up to 300,000 gold coins within ten years, but also a kind of popularity and personal influence, and even had an impact on many people's decisions on him. However, at this time, Annien had not really realized it.
At this time, even after the rain, there was this magic on the carriage, and the people on the carriage did not fall into the rain at all, and even the scorching sun did not have any heat. This is because the temperature is now kept at 15 degrees.
Without rain or feeling the heat, the summer immediately became very cute, especially on the island after the rain, the fragrance of the air made everyone in the carriage very satisfied - by the way, there were Rise, Els, and excited Loli's sister Essali.
Loli's sister Eshal was very excited to move around the carriage. The special wide body could not meet her needs for movement. She picked out something from a basket of food to eat, or a chicken leg or a crab, and ate it with relish. She has lived a very happy life over the past few years. The only regret that Annien felt that she was too young, although she was fifteen years old this year.
Alce is now able to issue a first-level spell. She is probably at level 1 of the mage level. She is smiling and with her sister. In sharp contrast, Riss is holding a book in his hand and reading attentively.
Ris once wanted to study magic, but unfortunately, even though she was treated with rich treatment (basically, she wanted to learn and had all the conditions), she lacked magical talent. Although she was not absolutely impossible to become a magician, her achievements were quite limited. Even her mother felt that it was not advisable that she wasted a lot of magic resources every month but could not make progress. She advised her several times. After all, although her identity was a bit special, she was not one of the legitimate masters. Such consumption had already caused many people to gossip about it, which made Ris cry several times.
Therefore, although Riss still insists on magical meditation, she still shifts most of her attention to scholars who don’t need to spend much. After all, scholars are also needed in the territory to help manage internal affairs and deal with finances, so this is still a very promising thing.
Although I don't know if Annen noticed her efforts, Rise has been working silently. In the more than two years she has changed a lot and has become much silent. Sometimes, inadvertently, Annen will also notice that her temperament is accompanied by a scholarly breath, and her eyes are filled with loneliness that no one pays attention to - and at this time, she is reading so quietly, except for putting down the book by chance and looking at him quietly - and the lively and even willful girl a few years ago, no longer alone.
Except for her mother, no one else may have paid attention. But when Alce, who is also a woman, sometimes she will feel infinite emotion and a hint of pity in her heart when she sees this.
The rain fell down, and the island became a world of water. The scenery in the distance was blocked by the rain, and the view could not be seen far. Although there were sand and stones on the road, it still carried a lot of sludge. Therefore, it was very difficult to drive the carriage. Along the way, two deep marks of the carriage extended to the distance.
"The rain is so heavy. When the wind blows, it seems a little cold. Brother, can you raise the temperature a little longer?" Luo Li's sister Eshalli began to complain and request.
"Sister, be good, adjust the magic, it's very troublesome. You can wait a while. If you feel a little cold, I'll put on a piece of clothing for you." Alce said.
It was raining, so you had to be careful when walking on the road. After asking about the progress of the journey, Annon looked at the pouring rain outside the magic circle, frowned and said, "It seems that in such weather, it will take another hour to get to the beach."
"Why be anxious? The rain is also very romantic. We didn't try to rush in the rain without falling into the water." Als still likes this situation very much, but she turned around: "Brother, are there anything you have to do when you go to the beach?"
“I want to develop a new money-making project.”
"A new money-making project? Brother, our territory is already very profitable." Alce disagreed with this. She now read a lot and began to have her own insights: "If you have too much money, it may not be a good thing!"
"Last time, I reached an agreement with the elves and purchased ten pairs of lion eagles. Lion eagles have a light wisdom and can understand human words, so it is very good in the air. On the hills and now in the air, it happens to be their homes, but they eat a lot. Every day, they barely eat enough, and they have to catch fish on their own in the sea! It doesn't matter now, but if they are born in the future, the expenses will be high, so how can they not make money?"
"Besides, in this war, I am going to make combat armor for our soldiers. Although Master Stille's help, each pair of armor must have 300 gold coins. If you arm 500 soldiers on the island, you must also have 150,000 gold coins. This is a big number. Of course, there are also demonized bows and arrows, a large number of scrolls, various weapons, and logistics equipment. If you spend this way, you can't get it without 250,000 yuan. Of course, I have to open up a source of wealth."
"But is it necessary to arm armor for every soldier?"
"Why don't you? The elf soldiers and mages are coming soon. When I arrive on the island, I will conduct military exercises with them for half a year. No matter what, if our strength is too shabby, it will be despised by the elf soldiers and will be even more beneficial to each other's cooperation."
This is of course the main reason, and more importantly, it is to strengthen its own strength. With the use of the birth potion, most of the soldiers at the second level can become strong soldiers of level four to five (although they will never be able to make breakthroughs in the future, and may even reduce their lifespan), but with enough weapons, it is still a strong army.
Annien remembered the military plan discussed and completed with Master Stiel - the composite armor used for giant shield heavy infantry and Chinese armor for soldiers (anti-virus steel helmet + steel breastplate + high-strength metal mesh skirt armor + fire-resistant and acid-resistant whole body leather armor and accessories, insulation and ground-resistant electric shock and ionization design with certain resistance to electric magic. It has certain resistance to electric magic, and has strong protection against fire, acid and poison gas attacks)
6 15-man standard infantry squads (including 1 junior knight, 2 knight apprentices, 2 thieves, 2 archers, 2 giant shield heavy infantry, and 6 Chinese-A warriors)
2 15-man heavy infantry squads (including 1 junior knight. 2 knight apprentices, 3 giant shield heavy infantry, and 9 axe and gun heavy infantry)
2 15-man light armor longbow teams
1 15-person heavy sniper crossbow team (including 5 3-person heavy long-range sniper crossbow combat teams)
1 15-person combat scout team
1 20-person direct guard team
(2 intermediate heavy knights, 2 light armored staff and civil servants, 4 low-level mages in group 1. 8 heavy infantry guards with giant shields, 4 light armored messengers)
The mage's own magic position is mainly auxiliary magic such as greasy illumination craftsman web craftsman smelly cloud technique, but it is more important to use scrolls to bless warriors.
According to Stiel's requirements and understanding, such a combat team must be equipped with 200 magic weapon reels, 20 greasy reels, 10 fireball reels, 10 spider web reels, and 10 magic missile reels before a frontal battle - in order to maximize the combat power.
In this regard, even Annin, who has always emphasized the importance of weapons, could not help but be amazed. A mere 500 soldiers would consume 250,000 gold coins. A battle would cost 30,000 gold coins. Even the kingdom's guards might not have such luxurious equipment. However, Annin still fought. With such strength, the elves can basically maintain the minimum respect and provide additional protection in the battle. If they can fight properly, they can even directly confront the great mage.
In fact, for Annien, now is the time when face is higher than inner self. Otherwise, many things will be more passive, and this cannot be compensated by a little money.
However, although most of it is a one-time investment (such as armor and weapons can be recycled), to maintain such a strong army, a lot of money must be consumed every year, so the territory has to be developed. However, the territory has basically been developed, and Ann had to turn his attention to the sea and think about how to obtain a lot of wealth in the sea.
The rain in early summer comes and goes quickly. When Annindi's carriage drove to the sea, the rain had almost stopped, and even the sun was revealed, shining on the entire island that had just rained and above the vast ocean.
If you are making a living near the coast, since there is no large-scale preservation method now, even if you catch the fish, you will not have the capital to sell it - it will smell bad if it is sold in a few days. If you want to transport it to the mainland, you will be all smelly and rot without even reaching the port.
Therefore, the fish industry has no future and can only maintain the improvement of food in the local area on the islands. Well, salted fish is a commodity, but the profits are really not high.
Annien looked at the minerals and special products in the sea. There were a large amount of ore at the bottom of the sea, and even the precious mitril silver content was much greater than that in the mainland. Of course, more common are a large number of pearls, corals, crops in the sea, etc.
In the 26th century, the sea had already begun to grow a large number of marine crops with rich nutrition. A thing called Haimai has replaced traditional agriculture on most of the continents. However, this kind of thing may not be available in this world. However, the experience of the earth's extensive use of the ocean in the 26th century has greatly broadened Anne's perspective. You should know that in the 26th century, the output value of the marine garden industry could solve the nutritional needs of the 10 billion earth population, and other economic components have become the global economic pillar.
At that time, the idea that those who win the oceans won the world was more practical than the idea that those who win the spaces won the world, and was more valued by countries around the world and later the United Parliament of the Earth.
Therefore, he has always had a deep interest in the marine industry. Unfortunately, in this world, there is not enough technology for development in the mainland, let alone the ocean. Of course, he has never thought about developing a large marine industry - he is not a believer of the Ocean Goddess, why should he increase his divine power to her?
However, simply taking ore-cultivating beads has become a gold industry. The only thing to solve now is how to collect ore-cultivating beads in the sea - ordinary humans do not have such ability.
However, unlike on Earth, there are totally intelligent life in the oceans of this world. If it weren't for fear of relying too much on elves, and there were not many sea elves here, he could directly cooperate with sea elves through the Elf Island. Now, he wants to summon other marine life - such as the Fishman.
