This is a portal-type lair. It seems to be a passage connecting a certain secondary plane. Most of the methods for generating creatures in this type of lair are summoning, and the creatures are summoned to serve the summoner through equivalent exchange.
Lando looked at the light door, and skillfully took out two secondary moon crystals from the dimensional hole and threw them in. Sure enough, the vortex of time became brighter after a while, and then a small head poked out from inside.
Come.
It looked like a three-inch-long little person, or a girl scaled down to the same proportion. She had long curly hair, and was wearing clothes as thin as cicada wings. Her whole body was luminous, she had no wings, but she could stay nimbly.
Half empty.
She looked outside in the whirlpool, then flew to Brando and others, and said respectfully: "Hello, Lord Lord." Her voice was thin and her accent was a little strange, as if she was a foreigner speaking strictly.
Speaking Cruzan.
As the girl spoke, she looked at everyone with curious eyes, but she was not afraid.
"The lord she talks about is the master of the magical territory, which is similar to your human lords, but different. From the perspective of magical creatures, only those who have power are natural lords, and they do not agree with honorary titles."
Medissa explained to Qian and Roman on the side.
"Oh." Roman said, not sure if he understood.
Brando nodded. Unlike Qian and others, he was no stranger to these magical creatures because of his past experiences in games, so he asked directly: "What is your name, what kind of creature is it, and what abilities do you have?"
?”
"My name is Monica." The girl put her hand on her chest and introduced herself chirpingly: "We are light spirits, people of light entrusted to protect this sacred land. Our ability is to cultivate this world tree.
fortress."
"World Tree Fortress?" Brando frowned. For some reason, he was very familiar with this term. He always felt as if he had heard it somewhere. However, recalling it carefully, he didn't know whether this memory came from the past game.
, or the stories about the myths and legends of this world.
"World Tree Fortress, or according to your Lordships, it can be called Valhalla, but Valhalla is actually the name of the second World Tree Fortress. This is the third and last one." Moni
Ka replied.
"What are the second and third buildings? What exactly is the World Tree Fortress?" Brando couldn't help but ask.
"Then I don't know, Lord Lord. Our knowledge comes from the inheritance of magical power. This is what I say in my memory. This tree is the most basic form of the World Tree Fortress. I only know this."
Brando nodded again. Monica's statement was not surprising. Many of the knowledge circulated in the blood were just fragments. However, he only asked this question casually. He was more concerned about what Valhalla had.
How much growth potential.
"Your ability is to cultivate this tree. How to cultivate it?"
"Once the World Tree sprouts, it will grow slowly. You can think of us as the gardeners who prune the branches and leaves of the tree, Lord." Monica replied.
Brando understood: "So you are the workers of this town. It can be understood that way, right?"
Monica nodded: "You can also say that we can help the lord build this city according to your wishes."
"So what can you build now?"
"I can't do it alone, Lord, and the light spirits are not omnipotent! I need more clan members to cooperate with my work. If there are one, two, or three light spirits, I can help the Lord.
Building a tree nest.”
"Tree Nest?" Brando was puzzled. He was very familiar with the architectural sequence of the Kingdom of Eruin, such as noble barracks and blacksmith shops. He had also seen some high-end buildings, but he had never heard of such a term:
"what is that?"
"Tree Nest can cultivate ancient tree roots. They are the most basic defense force of World Tree. Their strength is about the level of Peak Silver. However, they cannot leave World Tree. Lord, you can think of them as a kind of mobile defense.
The fortifications, or the guards of this town.”
"In addition, the tree man and the world tree are actually one and part of the world tree, so they do not need the magic pool to provide power. The tree nest can be built in this square, or on the upper level of the tree canopy, and does not need to occupy the magic pool.
Location." added Monica.
"Part of the World Tree?" Brando thought it sounded like the withered beast of the Golden Demon Tree, but he was still very interested in a creature nest that didn't need to occupy the location of the magic pool. Although he couldn't leave the World Tree, it was completely usable.
For defense, after all, they are the guards of the Silver Peak: "How many such guards can the tree house make?"
"The space of the current World Tree can accommodate up to one, two, three, or four tree nests, and each tree nest can generate one, two, three... ten roots, Lord." Monica.
Calculate carefully.
Forty pieces, this is really few. Brando is a little disappointed. If there are hundreds, then he can rely on Valhalla and rest easy. But think about it, the current Valhalla is only a big piece of palm.
The place, just putting down the city hall seemed a bit crowded, even if there were hundreds or thousands of guards, there was no room to accommodate them.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Valhalla...I mean, how can this World Tree continue to grow?"
Monica replied: "This is the mission of our light spirits. Our mission is to generate magic power and cultivate its growth. However, if Monica alone, it will take about one or two to grow the World Tree to the next stage.
three……"
"Wait, stop counting, just say how many years." When Brando heard Monica turning over and over with her fingers and counting to forty, he finally couldn't help sweating.
I'm afraid this little guy will keep counting until dark.
"How do you know how many years it is without counting?" Monica stared at Brando with wide eyes, seriously considering whether her Lord was an idiot for asking such a mentally retarded question.
Brando immediately knelt down, and the two of them bargained there for a long time, and finally figured out that it would take two hundred years for her to cultivate this World Tree alone.
"Two hundred years!" Qian was surprised when she heard this number. As a standard mortal, she still had a little difficulty accepting the unit of two hundred years - that is almost the entire life of an ordinary person.
"In other words, as long as you have two hundred tribesmen, Monica, you can shorten this time to one year, right?" Brando has his own calculation method. After all, there are four hundred sub-moon crystals.
It's not an unacceptable price for him.
"Let me do the math..."
"Don't forget about it yet, just tell me yes or no." Brando was sweating profusely again. In the previous discussion, he had discovered that this light spirit was not unable to count to ten, but that they seemed to be doing something
I like to be strict and don't like to save steps.
"Okay, but if it has to be completed within a year, we can't spare our hands to help the lord build other buildings." Monica thought for a while and replied.
But this is not a problem for Brando. He can definitely pay some extra light spirits to help him build his territory. But this idea was just formed when Monica saw through it, and she immediately broke Brando's mind.
Fantasy:
"Lord, there is an upper limit on the number of portals that can pass through within a certain period of time. Are you trying to summon thousands of light spirits to help Monica?"
"The upper limit?" Brando's daydream was like a mirror falling to the ground and shattering. He never expected that there was such a setting: "What is the upper limit?"
"The vortex of light can only withstand one, two, three...twenty energy jumps per month."
"That's twenty?"
Monica nodded.
Twenty per month, just summoning two hundred light spirits takes up to ten months. This means that it will take at least a year and a half for the World Tree to grow to the next stage. Brando was suddenly a little disillusioned.
How could he have such a long time? He originally thought that Valhalla Fortress would become the main force in his hands in a short period of time.
Fortunately, Monica's next words gave him the last glimmer of hope. Monica said that the portal can be expanded, but only if a Moon Tower is built in Valhalla.
Brando knows the Tower of the Moon well. It is an auxiliary building of the Mage Tower, and its function is to train astrologers. In the game, astrologers are actually a kind of specialized wizards. Their ability is prophecy, and they are also proficient in
Channel the magic.
The astrologer can move the location of the magic gathering point, or guide the magic in the magic pool into the lair through the Moon Tower to increase the biological production of the lair, or improve the efficiency of the alchemy laboratory.
This is their role in the game. What Monica wants to use now is obviously the first role of the Tower of the Moon. Although Brando doesn’t know whether the attributes in the game are still feasible here, but since
If an aboriginal person like Monica says it's okay, and Metissa has no objections, then there must be no problem.
A Moon Tower can strengthen three other buildings. Although the Moon Tower itself also needs a location for a magic pool, its effect is equivalent to dividing the magic pool into three. In the past games, it was not an uncommon and unpopular building.
However, in building the Moon Tower in the primary territory, Brando felt that he must be the first to do so.
Generally, lord players either build wizard towers or crystal pools, and few even build lairs, let alone moon towers. Although Brando has never been a lord, he still thinks this is too weird.
However, with the Tower of the Moon, the output of the Vortex of Light can be increased to forty. Brando is very optimistic about the growth prospects of Valhalla. After all, the title of the most legendary territory of the Amber Sword is not his. He will Valhalla.
Hara regards it as his biggest potential support in the future, so as long as this fortress can be revitalized faster, it doesn't matter how much money is invested.
So Brando used the remaining secondary moon crystal to summon the other nineteen light spirits. I don’t know what the designer’s bad taste was. There seemed to be no male in the light spirit race, and all the ones summoned were in equal proportions.
The shrunken girl was chattering and making noise like a real fairy. After a while, the hall of World Tree was no different from the busiest market in Eruin.
Brando and others couldn't help but have a headache when they saw the noisy light balls flying all over the sky. He could fully imagine how 'lively' this city of trees would be in the future when there are thousands or even tens of thousands of such residents.
, in fact he doubted that the other residents of the city could sleep at all.
But at the same time, he also asked Monica about some other abilities of the Light Spirit, and learned that it would take about a week for twenty sisters to build a Tower of the Moon. This was not considered slow. The construction of the Tower of the Moon required the use of wizards.
The magical power, if Brando only relies on the help of Charles and his apprentices and half-hearted charlatans, it is estimated that it will take at least two or three months - this is also the construction period of his wizard tower estimated by Charles.
At the same time, in addition to the Tree Nest, the Light Spirits will also build two special buildings belonging to Valhalla, the Valulun Warrior Hall and the Wind Archer Camp.
Brando has never heard of these two buildings, but according to Monica, these two buildings belong to the core ability of Valhalla-that is, the ability to preserve heroic spirits, so Brando guessed that it might be
Regarding the buildings for training these two special arms, Monica said that these two buildings do not require a magic pool, so he will definitely put them on the construction schedule.
After all, this is the fundamental reason why he needs Valhalla.
It takes ten light spirits to work for a month to build the Valulen Warrior Hall. The Wind Archer camp is slightly shorter, but it will also take three weeks. Brando plans to place the Warrior Hall in the square, directly opposite the City Hall, while the Wind Archer camp is
The second level of Valhalla, the Tree Nest, can be built on the tree canopy, which just makes full use of all the space that Valhalla currently has.
Here, he had just finished his calculations, and when he raised his head, he saw Flo walking in from the outside with a few people. Behind her were Caglis, the second son of Sir Mintai, who was the captain of his guard at the time, and Caglis, the captain of his guard at the time.
and two other tall tree elf girls carrying long bows.
Caglis walked in the hall of the World Tree, looking around as curiously as a monkey, without any aristocratic demeanor. However, the two elf girls were not much different. They both looked at the hall built on the tree with surprise.
.
For the tree elves, they have never seen an architectural style so similar to their hometown outside the Green Tower.
But when Brando saw Caglis and the tree elves together, the first thing he thought of was whether there was any progress on Belu and Tamar's side.
