371. Chapter 371 Sharpening the Knife
Before Roddy left Jingyu Forest, the village chief of "Zada Village" who came to make trouble in Brody provided a series of tasks called "Bamboo Basket Water" by players. The biggest "gimmick" is to say
The Dragon Clan was able to see him, but the players lost everything and made a long list of mission chains and got nothing except experience points. In the end, they scolded him for cheating on the forum.
This is one of the few memories in Roddy's impression that can be related to the "Dragon Clan". He did not expect that... the high elves in history were so strong that they had defeated the Dragon Clan.
"The dragon clan is arrogant?"
He asked casually, this is a common description in most novels - as a higher species, the dragon race often looks down on mortals and so on... But Akasha's answer surprised him a little:
"The high elves have a strange evaluation of the dragon clan. They say that the dragon clan is an extremely rational and 'just' race, which leads to the dragon clan being very indifferent most of the time because they do not have a sense of superiority to weak species.
But I just think that communicating with them is a waste of time.”
After saying this, Akasha stretched out her tongue and made a face with a smile: "Of course, it is also possible that the high elf itself is so arrogant, so she didn't notice the arrogance of the dragon clan."
Sitting beside Roddy, Akasha's mouth was always involuntarily raised, and she didn't even notice the sense of dependence that she had developed since no time. But after saying this, she found that Roddy
He didn't react much, just nodded lightly, and then gently closed the pages of "Conversation with the Dragon".
"Next, I'm going to Jingyu Forest. You and me need to set off as soon as possible."
Roddy's curiosity about the Dragon Clan stopped here. He was not a scholar and was not interested in learning those knowledge that could not be used - the strength of the Dragon Clan is recognized, and this does not require players to verify it, because the information given on the official website is written.
It is clear that the strength of the adult dragon clan is generally above level 50, and most dragons over 200 years old have exceeded level 60, or even above level 80.
The atmosphere seemed to suddenly become cold. Akasha's expression froze on her face, and she immediately noticed the difference between Roddy in the past. She wanted to ask, but when she saw him looking down, she finally whispered:
"I know, I, I'll prepare now..."
"Don't worry, there are some things to say."
Rodie raised his eyes slightly and looked at her calmly: "Here I find the surrounding map of Wagra City."
Akasha had already known the library, and soon found a map of one and a half meters long from another row of bookshelf. Before he could unfold it, he saw Camilla stepping in from outside.
Roddy found that Camilla looked much more haggard than before. Her cheeks were pale and bloodless, and her steps were a little fluttering when she walked.
This seems to be a side effect of insufficient city energy, and Roddy was a little nervous... I'm afraid that Camilla said that it would last for two months was just a theoretical number.
"The problem of insufficient urban crystals needs to be solved immediately. I will make a long story short. The next goal is to focus on Jingyu Forest. I will lead a team in Elsa Village to start exploring those places that were designated in advance. Now Soder is
Take people to Elsa village..."
"I need to confirm the location of all the ruins that may be lost in the charging crystal and set off as soon as possible."
Roddy is very clear about the principle of "sharpening a knife and chopping wood". Jingyu Forest is so big, it is extremely time-consuming to explore. If his memory is deviated, no one can afford the consequences of detours, so he can use it.
The confirmation of the map left by Elson City is the most important step in all his plans.
His serious attitude made the atmosphere solemn. Akasha, who had wanted to say a few jokes, suddenly lost her mind. She didn't know about the rechargeable crystal, so she had to prick up her ears and listen carefully to Roddy and Ka.
Mira's conversation...
"As the imperial city, Wagra City, was surrounded by more than seventeen small villages and towns, but there were probably only these five that could find the rechargeable crystals."
Camilla didn't talk nonsense. As a descendant of the high elf, she knew much more about this race than Akasha. After glanced at the map, she immediately reached out to point out the areas that were once located around Wagra City.
"Here, here, here, here is a defensive city, and is used as strategic buffering and logistics in wartime. According to principles, a large number of crystals will definitely be stored, but... according to what I know about 'rechargeable crystals', they
The reason why only a small part of it has remained to this day is not because of the difficulty of making it.”
Camilla raised her head and whispered: "Because the structure reverses the natural law, the 'energy crystal' is not as stable as the ordinary magic crystal, so the high elves often directly detonate the crystal to the enemy when they fight to the last moment.
They die together, and only a few crystals located in the central position can avoid this fate due to the high level of magic circles..."
Akasha was so sensible to hear next to him, but Roddy slowly said after thinking: "That is to say... the three places you mentioned are likely to have nothing to find?"
"Either there are more than five hundred crystals, or it's a piece of ruins after an explosion."
Camilla paused, then his fingers drew a trajectory from Elsa to the north, and stopped on a "Pharm Bottle" symbol: "I learned about this in the literature of the 'Holy Society': The High Elf Before Destruction
Because they mastered extremely high-level power, they began to experiment with many rare creatures, and this is the largest biological 'laboratory' outside Wagra City. Because of its hidden location, it seems that it was not attacked by orc troops, so it should be
There will be many crystals left."
Then she moved her fingertips north again: "Molia City, this is the closest fortress besides Wagra, and its defense power is second only to Elson. According to the theoretical needs of the defensive magic circle, the crystal it stores
There should be much more stone than Wagra City…and it is very likely to be preserved until now.”
Obviously Camilla had done her homework long ago, and her analysis was very organized at this time. Roddy had set aside about twelve areas before, and Camilla's words were equivalent to saving more than half of his exploration in disguise.
time.
Roddy stood up, bent down slightly to look down at the map, and quietly reached out to define the route after departing from Elsa Village, but...
"Why not go straight?"
Akasha, who had never dared to speak next to him, finally couldn't help but ask.
Roddy didn't raise his head, and gently pointed his fingers in the bypassing area: "There is a poisonous gas swamp here, and there are three high-level monsters guarding it. The water source in this area is poisonous, so you can't go straight."
In the plain tone, it seemed that these ordinary people had no way of knowing it was so natural. Akasha and Camilla looked at each other... Obviously, Roddy inadvertently refreshed their cognition again.
"According to this route, you can go to all five locations in about a month." Roddy calculated the time and found that if the action went smoothly, he would not be very nervous. He felt a little relaxed, and then said to Akasha: "Go and prepare."
Things, I'll wait for you in the square in an hour."
"OK."
The little pastor took the order and quickly left the library. Before leaving, she did not forget to look back, pursing her lips and wondering what she was thinking...
The atmosphere in the library changed slightly at this time. Roddy lowered her head and pondered the details of the plan, but Camilla hesitated whether to speak because of some thoughts in her heart. Seeing that Roddy never spoke, she calmed down slightly and looked serious.
He said: "I... will fulfill the previous agreement."
"Hmm...what?"
Roddy seemed a little absent-minded. When he raised his head, he remembered the agreement between Camilla and himself before leaving: if Nefi can be saved, she would be willing to become his subordinate.
But the problem is that Roddy never thought of letting "mother-in-law" become her subordinate from beginning to end. It would be fine if she didn't mention it. At this time, she took the initiative to say it, and Roddy immediately felt extremely awkward and embarrassed.
But he also understood... If he still pushed back at this time, it would probably only make Camilla feel more suspicious and add to his worries.
So he could only nod his head and express his agreement, and then he suddenly changed the topic: "There is no special situation in the city recently?"
Camilla opened her mouth, feeling a sense of inexplicable loss in her heart. She didn't know what she was expecting at that moment, but she was an adult after all, and her expression was always clear. She replied: "The city and the forest have always been very calm.
The guard post has established a contact route here, and neither the undead nor the orcs have any movement, but..."
She hesitated for a moment and recalled: "About a week ago, the detection array of Pashael Magic Tower recorded a relatively violent element fluctuation in the east, but because the array has not been completely repaired, it is impossible to tell that it is
Something was sent out."
"Can you repair the magic array?"
Roddy didn't care about any elemental fluctuations. Some of the human mages have been doing experiments to kill him. However, he unexpectedly found out how the "detection array" was created.
"Because of Khadgar's inheritance, I am very sensitive to things in the magic tower. During this period, I have studied and tried and repaired some things. The magic array is more complicated and only half of it was repaired, and this... I hope you are looking for it
Take the crystal when you are there.”
Camilla took out a bracelet made of crystal material, Roddy took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.
"Incomplete energy release device"
One-handed consumables
Use: Connect the "energy-charged crystal" and release energy at one time, causing a lot of damage.
"Made by Arcanist Camilla. Because of its unstable structure, it can only be used once."
I thought it was a wrist guard, but I didn't expect it to be a consumable like a "grenade". Roddy picked it up and looked at it. It felt that the workmanship was indeed a bit rough. When he raised his head, he found that Camilla's cheeks were slightly red...
"I did it temporarily. Some monsters in the forest are more threatening, and this thing should help you."
Camilla's eyelashes trembled. After all, she felt that her behavior seemed to cause misunderstandings to Roddy, so she explained: "After all, this is related to my life. It would be better to have more insurance."
"That's right, I've taken it."
Roddy didn't think much about it. He always refused to accept this kind of consumption weapon. At this time, all he thought about was how to cooperate with the scroll to cause the greatest damage. He didn't notice that Camilla was slightly holding.
