Chapter 232: Rift (Part 2)

"What else can I have except for the gargoyles?" This time I was curious about the female magician who didn't know the name of Salin.

"Let me think about it." Rex closed his eyes and thought. She also had a lot of knowledge to remember, but the magician's memory method could not correspond to all the content at any time. Most of them were memorized by rote. When needed, they had to reorganize it themselves.

Rex and Bifano have been dealing with each other for a day or two, so she will naturally pay attention to the information of the Principality of Titan. She has recorded the information about the stone statue castle with memory magic. After thinking about it carefully, she finally thought of what good things were in the castle.

Rex smiled and said, "Sarin, the underground of this castle was originally a larger castle, but the earthquake sank. In addition to the large amount of supplies, the stone statue castle has a complete alchemy laboratory. Unfortunately, there are no powerful mages here and it has been closed. I'm afraid that even the Count who controls the castle does not know that there is a set of treasures there."

A gleam appeared in Salin's eyes. He vaguely guessed something and asked, "It's not an alchemy mold, is it?"

"How do you know!" This time it was Rex's turn to be surprised.

"Hey..." Salin smiled mysteriously. The magic notes he obtained were relatively long. If the Stone Castle was a new town, he would not have known anything. However, the history of the Stone Castle was longer than that of the Titan Principality, Salin found relevant information instead.

This alchemy mold is a good thing, but the difficulty of manufacturing is no less than that of a magical tool. All alchemy techniques need to be refined by hand and little by little if you want to create complex things. Like Eni, you use tools to make large quantities of alchemy arrows. The production of defective products will inevitably be shorter storage time.

If you want to create real magic equipment, you have to rely on magicians to complete it bit by bit. But ancient humans didn’t have to be so troublesome. They invented alchemy molds, which can put magic materials into alchemy molds like pouring metal ingots, and mass-producing magic equipment.

This alchemy method is dozens of times faster than relying on magicians to refine, and the number of magicians required is much smaller. The consumption method is generally to use the magic cores in the magic array to drive the alchemy mold. As long as you have magic cores and a similar number of mages, you can use the alchemy mold to make magic equipment in batches.

Of course, such equipment is definitely not as good as the equipment made by Salin using the Water Flame Alchemy, but the price is much lower. If you get the alchemy mold to make armor, Rex can even replace all her swordsman camp with magic armor.

"How come no one pays attention to this thing?" Salin asked strangely.

Qin Yin also cherishes the abnormality of alchemy molds. There is a set of Alchemy City and a set of Holy Rock City. There is no complete set of molds. The set of Holy Rock City is a mold used to make armor, while the set of Alchemy City seems to be a mold used to refine basic materials. Even so, Alchemy City has built a large number of magic warships with that set of molds.

"Because this is a puppet refining, the material must be a creature summoned from other planes, like a gargoyle. It cannot be a dead creature."

Only then did Salin realize that no one knew this set of equipment now, and even if someone discovered it, it was a useless equipment. This thing was probably very common back then. At that time, humans could travel through various planes, and some creatures that were of little value and did not need to be domesticated were directly refined into puppets, so that the magicians of that year would refine one by one. I am afraid no one would have the patience.

It is natural to make alchemy molds instead of tedious handicrafts.

However, this thing is of great use to Salin and Rex. There are creatures in the semi-plane, so you can use this set of molds to refine them into puppets. After refining, these puppets do not need to be fed with meat, and they only need to consume magic cores to survive. To be precise, ancient humans made half puppets.

The combat power may not be higher than a pure puppet, but it can do extremely complicated things.

This is something stronger than undead creatures. Undead creatures are restrained by the divine art of light. Half-puppets are almost the same as humans. All kinds of data are balanced, and there is no special magic or magic.

As long as you get this set of alchemy molds, Salin and Rex will be worth the trip.

The rain was a little lighter, so Bifano organized the soldiers to change their equipment. The metal armor was removed and replaced with waterproof leather armor. These leather armors were soaked with special oil. They were not only extremely tough, but also unable to ignite. In terms of defense, leather armor will never be as good as metal armor unless it is blessed with powerful magic. However, convenience is the first priority in marching and fighting.

Those metal armors are soaked in rain for a long time and need to be repaired, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Only higher-level ones can be completely waterproof and are outrageously expensive. A set of metal armor that is not affected by humidity can sell at least 500 gold coins, but it still needs to be repaired and maintained. The advantage of leather armor is that it has a variety of tanning methods and blessed magic is a hundred times easier than metal armor.

Not only leather armor, the soldiers also wore rainproof cloaks, all with hoods, and some low-level officers also equipped with waterproof eyes. These glasses are made of discarded crystals. After wearing them, they do not affect their vision, waterproof, wind and sandproof, and are also relatively expensive equipment.

The army could not really stop because of heavy rain. All the war horses began to feed medicine, keep cold and cure diseases. Then the soldiers changed the vests of the war horses and prepared to set off on their way.

This is the difference between elite soldiers and ordinary troops. They are fully equipped and the method of dealing with troubles is also very practical. In the end, the soldiers put a layer of dark things on all the wheels, making the wheels wider so as not to fall into muddy land. This black substance is a kind of gum, with a pitiful output, and it is only produced on the sea south of the clouds. When it is not a special time, the soldiers are reluctant to use this equipment.

Before the rain was completely stopped, Bifano's team set off again.

Salin inlaid a third-level magic core on a magic circle of the magic chariot. The crystals on the hollowed-out windows on both sides of the magic chariot seemed to melt, and the entire window was transparent, but the transparency was one-sided, and the inside of the chariot was still not visible from the outside.

On both sides of the chariot are Rex's sword masters, but the big bear has already boarded another magic chariot. Although he is rude, he is very respectful to the wizard and never makes any unhappy actions of the wizard. Therefore, the wizards around Rex actually like this guy who has no magical talent.

The most miserable one was Zola, who followed the magic chariot Salin was riding in, and his magic armor was covered with water droplets.

In the evening, the convoy was almost approaching the next town. The soldiers did not relax and maintained a strict formation. The clouds were not that thick, and there was even a trace of sunshine that shone on the ground, reflecting on the accumulated water, emitting charming brilliance.

The soldiers were also a little tired. Seeing that they were about to reach the town, their speed increased a lot without realizing it. Seeing that there was a wooden house for merchants to rest in front of them, a sharp magical alarm suddenly sounded.

The scout did not discover the enemy's situation, but instead discovered it with a magical alarm.

The dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, and I don’t know how many bows were shooting at the team. Bifano hummed coldly from his nose, too lazy to give orders.

This is an obvious act of harassment. It is less than twenty miles away from the town, so it is impossible for an enemy to attack. The town license in front of me is stationed with a flag regiment of cavalry. Here, it is located on the Titan border and within hundreds of miles of the Princess Castle, all of which are militarized towns.

Bifano's personal soldiers did not disappoint him. The sound of feather arrows breaking through the air came first. The soldiers had taken off their shields and protected their bodies. Almost all the water droplets in the air could condense on the skin. In such weather, except for the alchemy crossbow, all the crossbows would be affected.

The enemy is very smart. Soldiers who have replaced their leather armor are more susceptible to attack by feather arrows, but the shields that Bifano's personal soldiers immediately carried were very large and were wrapped in yellow metal, so they would not be shot through by feather arrows.

The sharp feather arrows fell on the shield, making the sound of metal collisions, falling one after another.

The feather arrows came from a hill on the left, with a height of only more than 100 meters. A team of personal soldiers suddenly divided up a team of only forty people, and the team rode up the hill.

The Titan Mountains were almost full of mounds, very smooth and not steep. These forty personal soldiers were not cavalrymen. After they got on the top of the mountain, they immediately abandoned their horses and shields, drew their swords, jumped off their horses, and rushed towards the archers' hidden place.

Two other cavalry teams of forty men were circling the hillside, but they went to block the enemy's retreat.

Rex said to Salin in the car: "See, this is the soldier."

Salin thought to himself, if I have money, I would not build such an army. I would directly order people to bombard the mountain with magic cannons, or ask the great magician to ignite the mountain, and destroy the enemy no matter what trap it is, why bother with this?

It seemed as if in order to cater to what Salin thought, a violent explosion suddenly occurred on the mountain, and the fire spread, and countless gravels flew up and fell around.

The screaming sound was more than a mile away, and Bifano changed color. There was no second wave of the enemy's arrow rain. I'm afraid it was just a batch of mechanical devices installed, all of which were shot out by triggering. There were not many enemies on the top of the mountain, but a large magic trap.

The leader of the Red Pink Legion is a cruel female magician.

Forty personal soldiers who rushed up the mountain were killed in a blink of an eye. Half of them were killed. The remaining eighteen people, holding the injured, discarded their weapons and fled down the mountain. Some of the magic traps were serial, and they dared not stay on the mountain for an extra minute.

"The people of the Red Pink Legion hope that Bifano will be angry." Salin said lightly. He had no talent for marching and fighting, but his understanding of people is no worse than that of others. Salin had a keen intuition on such a small-scale battle.
