Chapter 3 Lighthouse Crystals and Lighthouse Charms
Parents of their children found that their children simply could not breathe freely in this world, and almost all newborns encountered severe respiratory problems.
Most of them even died young because of this.
In addition, the land here was also horribly barren. At that time, supplies and food for the front line could only be supplied by the First World. The soil here was covered with black gravel and could not grow any plants from the Sanctuary World.
The same problem also arises from the water source. There is no water at all in this world. In addition to black stones, there is only a kind of crystal mineral deposit in the valleys and chasms everywhere that is not recognized by the Holy Deed and cannot be used for any purpose.
The air was so thin that only high-level professionals could barely breathe, and the lack of food and water resources once almost plunged the pioneers of the second world into despair. For a long time, the professionals here were simply unable to cope with the situation.
The problem of longer and longer supply lines coming from the first world.
Fortunately, at this time, the major professional holy places in the sanctuary world took action.
The druids of Tadura brought various blessed plant seeds from their sacred trees. These seeds can grow tenaciously in extremely harsh environments and subtly change the surrounding environment.
The barbarians of Harrogath dug out a large number of extremely cold ice crystals from the depths of the snowy Arreat Mountains. Each of these ice crystals was condensed from a large amount of water deep in the underground glacier under the Arreat Mountains.
It can provide a continuous source of clean water for a human town.
Other professional holy places also made their own contributions, and their help allowed the pioneers of the second world to slowly revitalize their homes.
However, the most critical issue is air.
The air in this world is too thin. Although there is still a weak atmosphere on the planet, the oxygen content on the surface of the planet is simply not enough for ordinary people to breathe normally.
The residents of the Sanctuary World who do not know what the so-called atmosphere is are at a loss to solve this problem. The settlements and towns that have slowly taken shape can only temporarily use the "breathing spell" provided by the mage's holy land Xiansai to alleviate this problem.
But breathing charms only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. Each breathing charm can only provide about the oxygen an adult can breathe normally for a day.
Moreover, the cost of making the breathing spell is extremely high. Even if Xiansai keeps gritting his teeth and provides it for free, there is no way it can continue like this.
Later, Kane, who was studying in various places at the time, came to the Second World. He also noticed the serious air shortage problem faced by human towns and major settlements.
Being knowledgeable and knowledgeable, he began to look for a solution to this problem from the ancient spells passed down by the Horadrim, but in the end he only found a method similar to the breathing spell that only addressed the symptoms but not the root cause.
Unwilling to be reconciled, Kane began to explore around human-controlled areas, hoping to find local solutions to the fundamental problems.
During a magic experiment during a trip, Kane unexpectedly discovered that the crystal minerals stored in this world, which have no other use than beauty, actually contain huge amounts of energy. However, this energy is very difficult to tame.
If you use incorrect methods to stimulate the energy in the crystal, this energy will quickly evaporate and be wasted.
Kane, who was intrigued by this crystal, began to study how to bind and use this energy so that it could become a usable resource in human territory.
After countless spell experiments, he finally combined the ancient Horadrim rune books and spells from other ancient mage schools to create a spell that could absorb this special energy.
He engraved this spell on the surface of those crystals, and the excited crystals immediately began to dissipate energy.
However, this time the spilled energy was successfully absorbed by the spell.
Moreover, being reminded by certain details in this experiment, Kane quickly thought of those breathing spells from Xiansai.
He thought that since he could improve the energy-charging charm in the Horadrim scriptures, why couldn't he also improve the breathing charm?
It just so happens that now he has obtained enough energy source to support the lasting effect of the breathing spell!
With this thought, Kane's mind was opened.
After nearly two years of arduous experiments and thousands of failures, he finally came up with the perfect finished product, which is now the central core that protects the towns in the hinterland of the human-controlled area - the Lighthouse Talisman!
This kind of charm can continuously release air suitable for human breathing into a defined area around it, and can also squeeze out various toxic gases in the area that are harmful to ordinary people.
The most important thing is that the Lighthouse Talisman is not a consumable item and can continue to function by absorbing the energy of the Lighthouse Crystal.
As long as the energy supply continues, the lighthouse charms will not fail. They are like lighthouses that will never go out, guiding the direction of human progress in the second world.
It is because of the transformation of the Lighthouse Talisman and the unconditional opening of the method of making this talisman to the Parliament that Kane's reputation can spread so widely in the first world and the second world, and his reputation and status are recognized by all humans.
.
As living conditions improve, there are more and more human settlements in the hinterland of the Second World, and the number of newborns born here is also increasing year by year.
Some of these newborns have talents as professionals or mercenaries. They will be selected by the parliament and trained until they are eighteen years old. Then they will be sent back to the first world to receive the inauguration ceremony of professionals, and then they will stay there until
They reached the same heights as their forebears and passed the trials of the Worldstone to return to their homeland.
The other part of the newborns do not have professional or mercenary talents. They will live and produce in the towns in the core hinterland as ordinary people in the second world, allowing the human race to continue to grow and develop in this world.
.
Today, the entire Second World has achieved complete self-sufficiency. Although most areas of this world are still barren and very dangerous, they are slowly changing in the direction that people hope for.
When he said this, Ronnie stopped talking with a look of unfinished expression on his face.
He glanced at Xue Hua, who looked thoughtful, then chuckled and shook his head.
"Slowly realize it, newcomers, this is a new world, a new world that is completely different from the world we lived in before.
You still have a lot of time, but before that, you still want me to take you to register and receive the battle merit card. Battle merit is very important in this world. If you don’t want to be surpassed by the new guys in the future, you must
Work hard and earn military merit!"
Awakened by Ronnie from his reverie, Xue Hua raised his head and nodded to him, then followed Ronnie into a large tent in the center of the entire camp. (To be continued)
