"Redeem wind, water, and fire micro element channels: 1,500 points."
Total consumption: 12,500 points.
Space Stabilizer [Building Drawing]: A level 5 building of the spiritual machinery system. Place it in a sealed small space to stabilize the space coefficient and allow the small space to grow slowly.
Artificial Sun Corona [Building Drawing]: A level 4 building in the spiritual machinery department, a masterpiece of a master alchemist, which can provide stable sunlight.
Wind of Coordination [Architectural Drawing]: Elemental level 3 building, a circulating wind ring, which can coordinate the elemental power and natural power in the environment.
Magical Land [Building Drawings]: Natural level 2 buildings. Plants planted in this magical land have an increased chance of survival and faster growth.
After receiving the drawings, Ai Lan took a look at the materials needed to build the space stabilizer.
Space Stabilizer [Architectural Drawings]
Construction requirements: 200 units of sulfur, 200 units of mercury, 200 units of gems, 200 units of crystal, and 50,000 gold coins.
"Good boy, that's great."
It is worthy of being a level five building. The consumption and construction requirements made Ai Lan call it a good guy.
In fact, everything else is easy to say, but these 200 units of gems are really a big trouble.
I have a big gem consumer in my family, and now Ai Lan can't get even 1 unit of gems, let alone 200 units.
"Lite, come here for a moment."
The points gap between Ai Lan and the second place was 13,000 points.
The heart of the city has basically been obtained, and the architect's matter must be resolved.
"You are a carpenter, born to be an architect."
"I have an architect's certificate in my hand, which allows you to directly enter this profession."
Ai Lan took out his architect's certificate and threw it into Wright's hand.
"I will build the city in half a month, and now I am in urgent need of an architect in my team."
The meaning of his words has been made very clear, how could Wright not understand it.
"Legion commander and architect, I should have no problem."
After working as a carpenter for a long time, Wright would occasionally build a wooden house or something for fun (whiteboard construction has no bonus).
He barely understands the profession of architect.
"That's good, let's take office soon."
Ai Lan couldn't wait to see what the architect was capable of.
"OK."
Seeing that the legion commander was so anxious, Wright quickly used his architect's certificate.
A white light flashed, and a new profession appeared in his attribute panel.
Wright: Carpenter level 2/Architect level 0
"Legion Commander, I have acquired a skill exclusive to the architect profession."
Construction: Architects can build various magical buildings according to their own ideas.
"I don't understand this skill. What does it mean? Please demonstrate it to me."
What does it mean to act according to your thoughts?
"Okay, please wait for the legion commander."
Wright took out a carpentry saw and started sawing wildly at the big tree next to him.
"Kaka, you also go and help."
After the two were busy for a while, a pile of wooden boards appeared on the ground.
Ai Lan picked up a piece and looked at it. The wooden board had no properties, not even the name of the whiteboard.
Just like the soil on the ground, it is a background item.
He took out a unit of wood and compared it with the plank.
The wood is very standard, and the size, weight, and volume of each unit are exactly the same.
The wood board all depends on the craftsmanship. If the craftsmanship is good, the quality will be better. If the craftsmanship is poor, it will be covered with burrs, and the size can vary several times.
In addition, through this comparison, Ai Lan also found that there seemed to be some special power flowing in the wood.
The board is just an ordinary piece of wood, nothing special about it.
"I think I understand somewhat, Wright, continue."
Construction skills are of course not as simple as chopping a pile of wood.
Soon, Wright used the pile of wood to build a log house.
Wooden house: An ordinary wooden house that can provide shelter from wind and rain.
This time the wooden house has a whiteboard attribute, but it still does not have any ability bonus, and it is also similar to a background building.
If the architect's ability was just like this, then Ai Lan would probably be very disappointed.
Fortunately, Wright followed them through a big battle before and gained a lot of experience, just enough to upgrade the architect to the next level.
"Light, upgrade to level 1 architect, attribute to intelligence."
"Don't learn skills randomly, just listen to my arrangements."
"Okay, legion commander."
"Your elite unit, Wright, has been upgraded to a part-time job."
"Architect Level:0→1."
"Light's intelligence attributes have been improved."
"Intelligence: 16→17."
"Legion Commander, there are many skills in the skill tree, but there are only four skills I can learn now."
"Well, let's talk about the skill introduction."
Destroy: Learn how to completely destroy a building.
Restoration: Learn how to restore a building.
Cutting corners: reducing the materials and requirements required for construction, reducing the building's functionality and durability, and increasing the chance of construction failure.
Keep improving: Consume more resources, improve the function and durability of the building, and have a chance to improve the building level.
"Learn and strive for excellence."
As expected, the profession of architect has what Ai Lan wants.
He would never let Wright learn these four skills by cutting corners.
Ability like striving for excellence is what he urgently needs.
Although this skill consumes more resources, resources can be purchased with money. How expensive is a level 5 blueprint?
A full 5,000 points!
Ai Lan would let Wright learn to cut corners only if his brain was broken.
"Wright learned a new skill: excellence."
"Let's go, let's build the elemental passage first."
"Kaka, Wright, come in with me."
Taking advantage of the time left by Old One-Eye to explore the road, Ai Lan planned to build the Fairy Garden.
He casually opened the dimensional passage and took Kaka and Wright into the deserted fairy garden.
"Legion Commander, you are finally here!"
During this time, Farmer Crowe was left here alone, which almost drove him crazy.
In fact, if there is something to do, the farmer's small life can still go on.
The key is that this space is a wasteland, the land is so barren that it cannot be cultivated at all.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Keeping the farmer alone here all the time does feel a bit like being in prison, although Ai Lan's magic pet Iron Man is actually here.
But the iron man is a puppet, no different from a stone.
"Light, here are the materials and drawings. You can try building a miniature wind element channel first."
Ai Lan handed the drawings and twice the amount of materials to the architect, "You build this passage at the northernmost end."
"If you see the earth element passage to the south, align with it."
The four-element passage must be built at the four corners.
And Ai Lan has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder. These four channels must be built in perfect alignment to be comfortable.
"No problem, leave it to me."
Although Wright seemed a bit unreliable when taking risks.
But once he gets into work, his ability and attitude are still worthy of trust.
"Your architects used Excelsior and began to build miniature wind element passages."
"Ding, the construction of the miniature wind element plane passage is completed."
"View properties."
Name:Small Wind Elemental Plane Channel
Faction: Elemental
Level:Level 2
Durability:1000/1000
Function: Open a micro-channel connecting the wind elemental plane.
Excellence: This building uses more materials to build, and its construction capacity is +10%.
“It was upgraded the first time I used it!”
It seems that the probability of this skill is not low, and it may also be related to Ai Lan consuming twice the materials.
"Let me try another magnification."
The skill introduction only mentioned more materials, not how much more.
1.1 times, 2 times, or simply 1 unit more.
Micro element channels are not expensive, you can try them.
"Wright, let's continue." Ai Lan handed the other two element channel drawings to Wright.
"One piece uses 1.1 times the material, the other uses 1.5 times the material."
"Okay, legion commander."
Under Wright's operation, two buildings were placed on the east and west sides respectively.
But this time, Ai Lan was not so lucky, and neither building was upgraded successfully.
Name: Micro Fire Elemental Plane Channel
Level: Level 1
Durability:330/330
Function: Open a micro-channel connecting the fire elemental plane
Bonus: None
Advanced: Stone*50, Fire Element Crystal*10, Gold Coin 5000
Compared with the normally constructed earth element channel, the miniature fire element channel built with 1.1 times the materials is only 10% more durable.
Nothing else has changed at all, not even the bonus of excellence has appeared.
Name: Micro Water Elemental Plane Channel
Level: Level 1
Durability:450/450
Function: Open a micro-channel connecting the water elemental plane
Bonus: Keep improving
Advanced: Wood*50, Water Elemental Crystal*10, Gold Coin 5000
Excellence: This building uses more materials to build, and its construction ability is +5%.
"I see."
The lowest multiplier for excellence should be 1.5 times. If it is less than this number, the bonus skills will not appear.
And the bonus ability is obviously related to the materials consumed.
In addition, the probability of building upgrades should be closely related to the materials consumed.
"What is the maximum amount that can be added to this bonus?"
Ai Lan really wanted to try it with three times the amount of materials, but the materials he had on him were not enough.
He guessed that this bonus should not exceed too much.
20% to 30%, it is unlikely to exceed 50%, otherwise this skill will destroy the balance.
"This pursuit of excellence is really powerful."
After comparing the abilities of the four elemental channels, Ai Lan immediately made a decision in her mind.
His space stabilizer must be built with twice the amount of materials.
"Where should I get 400 units of gems?"
The other materials are about the same, except for gems, which are urgently needed.
Rare materials have a price but no market. At this stage, game merchants are stocking up like crazy, and Ai Lan can't even buy them.
Timber and stone are relatively easy to obtain, and they occasionally come out on the market.
If you don't need much, you can even buy it from small merchants.
