Early the next morning, the plunder of the guano mine was completed.
In the sea area from Guano Island to the wetland swamp, there is also a crystal mine, a quarry, a turtle nest and a damaged sea dragon nest.
Of course Ai Lan would not let go of the resource buildings, and he also wanted to take a look at the damaged sea dragon nest.
Forget about the turtle nest, there are still many things in the swamps waiting for him to plunder.
"Arkiman, target crystal mine, move forward."
"Yes, Master."
"Master, the research on streamlined shield lv1 is about to be completed."
"Whether to start research on other stunts."
Ai Lan took a look at the time it would take to reach level 2 and said, "Let's click on another one to fly in the air."
"By the way, does the streamlined shield have any bonus to movement in the sea?"
"Each level has a movement speed bonus of about 10%. After level 3, it can reduce the damage caused by long-range attacks to the shield."
"This skill is good and is very suitable for mangrove collars."
The mangrove territory relies too much on the bubble shield for defense, which is determined by the characteristics of the territory itself.
If you want to change, you must first build the Magic Network and the Mage Tower.
"Master, the single aerial flying skill has the lowest return among all studies so far."
What Yarchiman meant was that instead of researching aerial flight level 1, it would be better to add a few more levels of streamlined shields.
"Streamlined shield lv1 → lv2, which requires 5000 general energy and 48 hours."
"After calculation, this is currently the most profitable skill."
Ai Lan thought about it carefully, and found that their main method of movement at present was still moving in the water.
From Guano Island to the wetland swamp, you will need to plunder several resource points on the way, which will take about five days.
After five days, there should be news from Fastan.
It's just a good time to decide the next plan at that time.
During this period of time, the air movement at level 1 really does not have any effect. It is better to move up quickly to save some time.
The research on the mushroom forest has come to an end.
According to Yarkman's calculations, if there are no accidents, the mushroom forest will be researched by the time they reach the first resource point in the sea.
"Let's do this, Yarkman, give me the order of the next skill research."
"Plunder lv3 → Treasure altar lv1 → Streamlined shield lv3 → Flying in the air lv1 → Magic academy lv1 → Super speed regeneration lv2."
"That's it for now."
The direction of urban development in recent times was determined in Ai Lan's few words.
After finishing the most important matters, Ai Lan went to the tavern to have a drink and discussed with the chef how to cook Phoenix Blood Fruit and Light Body Mushroom.
The answer the chef gave him was that he was not level enough to cook these two ingredients.
To cook Phoenix Blood Fruit, you need at least master-level cooking skills, while Light Body Mushroom requires at least advanced cooking skills.
No matter what it is, it is not something that West Germany can achieve in a short time.
Ai Lan had no intention of cooking them immediately.
After confirming some information with the chef, he went directly to the institute and found Kaka and Wright.
"Kaka, are you sure you can grow this fruit?"
As for the Lightweight Mushroom, the myconids themselves are big living mushrooms, so breeding a kind of mushroom should not be any difficult for them.
"Boss, you have forgotten what my talent is."
Kaka can grow legendary tree species. Unless it is a higher level tree species, it will be impossible for him to be stumped.
"This plant..."
Just after bragging about his abilities, Kaka looked at the seed in his hand and fell into deep thought.
"What a magical fruit. It is completely composed of elemental power."
In Ai Lan's eyes, this fruit is a very high-end fruit.
But in Kaka's eyes, the Phoenix Blood Fruit was clearly a collection of fire elements.
"Boss, Phoenix Blood Tree does not exist in the world of Ashan. I can definitely plant this seed."
"but...."
Kaka's butt made Ai Lan's heart suddenly lift.
"but what?"
"But I'm not sure if it can bear fruit after it grows into a tree."
"You know, every plant requires a very harsh environment to grow."
"The more special the plant, the higher its environmental requirements." Kaka handed the Phoenix Blood Fruit back to Ai Lan.
"The best growing environment for this plant is a volcano, or a place with a dense fire element."
"Fairy Garden does not currently have such conditions."
"Who said we don't have it anymore." Ai Lan glanced at the blueprint in her backpack, "Let's go and plant it."
"By the way, Wright, you're here to help too."
"Oh, good legion commander."
"By the way, Commander, if I want to breed light-body mushrooms, I may have to stay in the fairy garden for a long time."
The level of the Light Body Mushroom is not low, and breeding it is not an easy task.
"Well, everyone has been busy lately, and I feel like I don't have enough time."
Aphra was also very busy. In order to build the mage tower as soon as possible, she had not slept for several days.
"correct."
"Arkiman, can I inlay the fairy garden on the mangrove collar?"
The Fairy Garden is a stable secondary plane, and theoretically, it can be absorbed by the main plane.
"Master, please seriously consider the value of moving planes."
"No, no, no, you don't understand what I mean."
Ai Lan didn't mean to let the mangrove collar absorb the Fairy Garden.
His idea was to treat the Fairy Garden as a treasure, and usually splice it together with the mangrove collar.
When you go out on adventures, just take it off and take it with you at any time.
"Master, after the mangrove leader reaches level 4, you can activate the attached plane function."
"Your idea will then be realized."
"level 4!"
Ai Lan raised his eyebrows. When will he have to wait until level 4? What he wants can be achieved immediately.
"Is there no other way?"
Yarchiman was silent for a while, seeming to be making some calculations.
"Master, you can build a fixed space passage between the mangrove collar and the fairy garden."
"When the Fairy Garden reaches a certain location, this secondary plane will be connected to the Mangrove Territory."
"When Goblin Garden leaves a location, the connection disappears."
This is the best solution that Yarchiman can come up with.
"So, what is the consumption required for construction?"
"Master, our technical reserves are insufficient. We recommend that you seek help from foreign aid."
"Can't our portal technology be used?"
"The portal cannot connect two spaces together."
Why does Ai Lan insist on linking the two spaces together? Of course it is to accelerate time in the Fairy Garden.
It would be great if time acceleration could be used in research.
"Ask for help again, Ms. Fastan."
"Forget it, don't worry now, wait until she contacts me and then bring this idea forward."
It's not that he is thin-skinned. If you want to maintain a good personal friendship, it is extremely stupid to ask for help at every turn.
Fastan will reply to him in a few days. In this case, just wait patiently for a few days.
After moving a few boxes of energy crystals to the City Lord's Mansion, Ai Lan took Kaka and Wright into the Fairy Garden.
During this time, Aphra has been concentrating on the construction of the mage tower in the Fairy Garden.
Other than that, no one usually comes here.
As soon as Ai Lan entered the fairy garden, she threw several boxes of energy crystals on the ground.
"I have spent all the materials in the territory recently."
"Even if it's a waste, there's nothing you can do about it. Let's make these two drawings, Wright."
These two buildings are somewhat special, as they are both built in the air.
Ai Lan called a tree man to come out and help the architect. The group worked hard for a while and finally added two brand new buildings in the Fairy Garden.
"Your architects used excellence and consumed three and a half times the amount of materials to start construction."
"Ding, the construction of Four Seasons Wind is completed."
"Ding, the construction of the artificial solar corona is completed."
Name:Four Seasons Wind
Faction: Elemental
Level:Level 4
Durability:5000/5000(+50%)
Function: Coordinate the seasonal changes in the area (+50%)
Bonus: Keep improving
Advanced: Insufficient prerequisites
————————
Name: Artificial corona
Faction: Psychic Department
Level:Level 4
Durability:4000/4000(+50%)
Function: Provide sufficient sunlight to an area (+50%)
Bonus: Keep improving
Advanced: 1 unit of Sun Core, 50,000 gold coins
As the building level increases, the probability of building upgrades also becomes lower and lower.
Ai Lan had already expected this.
With so many high-level blueprints in his hands, he didn't dare to continue building them, just because he was afraid of wasting these hard-earned level 5 blueprints.
As soon as the Wind of Four Seasons was completed, Ai Lan manipulated the elemental power in the fairy garden and began to arrange the four seasons.
The existence of seasons is definitely beneficial to the growth of plants.
A growing environment that is too stable will only cause plant degradation.
Due to the special nature of the small space, Ai Lan excluded two pieces of land without planting plants from seasonal changes.
In addition, the illumination of the artificial corona can also be controlled. He wasted this blueprint to create it, naturally for the Phoenix Blood Fruit.
"Kaka, start planting."
"good."
Kaka took the Phoenix Blood Fruit and dug a big hole in the corner of the Seed Paradise.
"Grow fast!"
Under the unreasonable effect of the talent skill, a crimson phoenix blood tree burst out of the ground.
In an instant, all the fire elemental power in the Fairy Garden was attracted by it.
An illusory vortex of fire elements began to slowly rotate around the crown of the Phoenix Blood Tree.
"Although it's a little smaller, it looks like the sacred sycamore tree."
If this kind of tree were awakened, what level of tree would it be?
But this one is specially used to breed seeds, and Ai Lan will definitely not wake it up.
"Kaka, how many days do you think it will take for the Phoenix Blood Tree to bear fruit?"
Ai Lan manipulated the artificial corona, focusing 80% of the light on it, and then controlled the winds of the four seasons, fixing this area in summer forever.
"Hard to say."
Kaka ran to Huangxuemu and touched it on the left and right, his face full of excitement showing uncontrollably.
“So handsome!”
"There are such magical trees in the world!"
"Let's keep it for now. I guess it will only take half a month."
This is still the time after acceleration.
The level of Phoenix Blood Wood should be level 6-7, it is unlikely to be level 8.
After awakening, there is a high probability that it will be a magic unit. What its specific skills will be like, Ai Lan can't guess.
This unit needs to plant a forest first before it can slowly take shape in his hands.
The estimated time required is calculated in years.
The advantage is that there is not much extra consumption, just plant it in the ground, and you don’t need to spend much thought on it.
After taking an energy crystal and replenishing the durability of the space-time stabilizer, Ai Lan led the people out of the Fairy Garden.
——————
Time has quietly arrived on the weekend of the second week of the second month of the launch of the New World server.
Currently, the hottest topic in this game is the follow-up mission after the end of Dragon Madness.
As for the New World, I don’t know why, but there are very few topics about the New World, whether in forums or player chat channels.
One thing Ai Lan knows is that after entering the new continent, the player's chat channel is separated from the old continent.
This is an important reason for the lack of topics.
In the game maniac guild he belongs to, many people's names have been grayed out in the guild list.
It’s not that these people have deleted their accounts, but that they have entered the New World and all communications have been cut off.
Of course, players can go to forums and communicate in the real world.
But for some reason, Ai Lan searched the forum several times, but rarely saw anyone talking about the New World.
What's even stranger is that there are very few players from the New World here.
It wasn't until someone mentioned it in the guild channel one day that he realized that the New World actually had its own exclusive forum.
And what’s outrageous is that only players who have entered the New World can enter this forum.
If you leave the New World or delete your account, you will not be able to enter this special forum.
This is obviously a deliberate arrangement by the game officials, and the purpose should be to divide the player group.
No one dares to underestimate the power of hundreds of millions of intelligent creatures united together.
Ai Lan can completely understand the behavior of the game official.
But if the official attitude was this, he had a feeling in his heart.
The next expansion pack will most likely make a fuss about the subsidiary planes of the main world.
For example, you can open portals to purgatory, the four elemental planes, the underworld, the ruins, the seventh heaven, the eternal forest, the wilderness of beasts, and the mechanical realm of Nirvana.
The underground world is quite special. It is located underground in the main world and does not belong to an auxiliary plane.
To divert players, is there any better way than opening the portal to the base camp of the nine major camps?
Ai Lan thought about it and realized that it really didn't happen.
He has been to Phoenix Mountain and knows how attractive the resources in this plane are to players.
However, since players are being diverted, it is very likely that there will be a situation where they will not be able to come back.
Or it may be impossible to return to the main world in a short time, just like the new continent now.
"It would be great if this game had a server-wide auction house."
Ai Lan is naturally happy to see players being diverted.
With fewer players, there is less competition.
But with fewer players, there will definitely be less output.
Without civilian players to move bricks, it would be very difficult for players like him who stand at the top of the pyramid.
Just like the strengthening stones currently circulating in the market, the emergence of the New World has diverted more than half of the civilian players.
The Mist Battlefield has been open for so long, and the price of strengthening stones is still high.
There are too few people moving bricks. Even if you have money, you won't be able to buy what you want.
In addition to these news, what Ai Lan is most concerned about recently is the information about random portals.
He also spent a lot of money on forums to buy information from various intelligence organizations.
Currently, the random portal in Chiba Forest has been determined.
There are three in total, one near Chiba City and one on the easternmost side of the forest, near the Wild Beast Wasteland.
The last one is dozens of kilometers south of Dryad Town, and it is also the door closest to him.
Ai Lan calculated this location and found that it would take at least half a month to reach it by land.
Walking from the air and maxing out your flying skills can save half the time.
In addition, there is no news at all about the portal in the Desolate Sea.
If the random portal in the Desolate Sea is found, Ai Lan may choose to go directly through the Desolate Sea.
He was a little reluctant to waste a week on the road.
In the end, he couldn't make a decision for a while.
He must definitely go to the wetlands and swamps.
All the resources in the swamp can be taken away.
In addition, if you leave from the forest, Ai Lan also wants to snatch away the magic well.
Based on this calculation, it might take him half a month just to plunder the building.
But these resource buildings are essential for territory development.
It's like farming. You have to be patient enough and wait for the plants to grow slowly before you can finally harvest something.
