Volume Two [Under Tide] Chapter 515 The Lamb
The climate of Tasman is completely different from that of Everta on the other side of the Gondola Mountains. Although it is only April, the clouds form a warm and humid airflow after hitting the mountain walls. The continuous light rain has made this nominal "land of the dead" "It is full of vitality.
That ’s right. From the perspective of geography alone, Tasman has enough rain, fertile land, and prey that seems to be inexhaustible in the woods. There is no deadly curse, no skulls and crawling grounds. Zombie. Nature has healed the wounds caused by the war under the influence of time. In the dull thunder, the rain finely moistens the land and covers the traces of the past on the ground.
Dasco frowned and looked up at the sky, cursing in his mouth: "It's endless ..."
Although undead, Dasco also didn't like rain. Because the rain will rust the weapon and make the ground slippery, there will be many more things to consider during the battle-he took the knife handle around his waist and glanced left and right to make sure that no one was paying attention to himself. Knocked at the wooden door in front of it according to some rules.
The leather on his body was wet by rain, and the mottled traces showed that the undead had faced many battles, and there was an obvious scar on the right side of his cheek, which seemed to have been cut with a sword. Today, there are only twine The traces of the cut tissue were only preliminary fusion, but there was no sign of healing.
After all ... I'm already undead.
Dasco sighed silently, reaching out to wipe the rain dripping from his forehead. Tasman's rainy season is not the same as the Nehemia prairie across the mountain. Since the snow melted in March, it has been continuously raining, and it will not stop until the weather is getting colder in October. There will not be any heavy rain during this period, but the light rain from time to time for the next three or five days always makes people feel less comfortable. But for Dasco, these days have been repeated countless times in the forty-eight years with memory.
His appearance only looks like twenty-seven, because Dasco died in an "accident" twenty years ago. Once the captain of the hunting squad, he was attacked and killed on a trip, but after waking up as an undead, he found that he was completely different from other awakened "kinds"-those guys had completely forgotten the past, Their guys are convinced, they all believe that they have a "new life" and soon have a sense of belonging to the Tasman Kingdom.
How about yourself? But clearly remembered the cause of death ...
As the captain of the hunting team, he has outstanding strength in the village, and has been a "leader" among hunters since the age of 25. After the attack, everyone in the village thought he was killed by Warcraft, but Only he knew that he was killed by an undead mage!
And the murderer was the one who awakened him from the "corpse" state!
Thanks to Dasco's extra effort, he pretended to lose his memory just like everyone else before getting confused. But forbearable, he has never been able to find a chance for revenge ... because the more he knows, the clearer these undead mages represent.
To put it simply, these humans living in Tasman are just "lambs" raised by Tasman undeads. Among them, if they are well qualified, they are eligible to use expensive resources to awaken as undeads. All this is the cornerstone of the establishment of the entire Tasman Empire, and if you want revenge, it is tantamount to confronting the entire Tasman Kingdom.
Over the years, the undead who still have memories of their lives after being "awakened" are not absent, but all of them who tried to resist were killed on the spot ... The gap in strength has left Dasco still worried.
But that doesn't mean he compromised. On the contrary, Dasco has never had any sense of belonging to Tasman in these two decades. After continuous attempts and efforts, he has successfully found a lot of "similar" and secretly established the "Awakeners" organization, only to one day be able to escape the oppression of the Kingdom of Tasman and pursue true "freedom" ...
"Freedom ... what exactly is freedom ..."
Dasco sighed. In the final analysis, he didn't know what "freedom" was, but he did n’t go to school or read a few books. It was just an unyielding fire in his heart that brought him to today-and Behind this open wooden door is the most important step for Dasco in the past 20 years.
"You came."
The faces in the shadows were a little pale, and it was faintly visible that the other was a stronger young man than Dasco. The other person's gaze stayed for a while on Dasco's face, and he seemed to want to say something else, but finally let the door open. After Dasco entered, he looked around the door a little, then closed the door gently.
Turning around, he seemed to have identified his choice, and there was no previous hesitation in his eyes, and he whispered: "It is indeed like you said. When I became the leader, the task route assigned by the town began to be regular. Moved over there ... "
"The undead mage cannot directly transform the corpse into a real undead. The altar is the first step, and your team is the sacrifice." Dasco's gray eyes raised, staring at the young man in front of him: "Kurka, The situation is probably more complicated than you and I think, so whether you make a decision or prepare, you must be early. "
Because of his undead identity recognized by Tasman, Dasco naturally heard a little about what was going on in the kingdom. By contrast, the human villages and towns in which Kulka was located were completely isolated from Tasman-appropriately, these villages were Tasmans. "Lambfold", the lamb as a sacrifice does not need to know extra information.
"What's going on? Don't those people-uh-those undead wizards have to do it in advance?"
Kulka's fingers held the axe around his waist. He was not timid, but worried about the fate of himself and other human companions ... Ever knowing that he was just a "lamb" in captivity, that kind of anger and fear Mixed emotions and anxiety kept tormenting him.
"I'm not sure if they will do it, but there is one thing you need to understand ..." Damico said hoarsely: "Tasman is now in a state of war. This is the first time in nearly a century that there is a clear signal that it is ready to fight. "If Tasman were going out of the Gondola Mountains, I ... and you might all become a reserve sequence."
Kulka looked pale. Although it is difficult to reach the outside world in this closed environment, there are also lords and nobles here, and there are endless battles and occasional wars. Even if it is usually a few hundred people, but the same principle makes Kulka's mind instantly tense-war means casualties, but also means a lot of money and manpower, and where do these things come from?
Still not drawn from the bottom "lamb"?
With this in mind, Kulka no longer had any extra thoughts, stood up solemnly, and promised: "I will bring my people to join you!"
The rain outside gradually began to cover up this secret conversation.
As the Tasman Kingdom was raining, Elson City also had a light rain-but this was not the result of the accumulation of dense cumulus clouds, but the artificial rainfall being carried out by the floating tower.
A faint cloud left a mottled shadow on the ground. From the central floating tower, the forests around the city of Elson, the neatly planned farmland, the outer wilderness, and even the Gondola Mountains in the distance are all received. fundus. At a height of 400 meters, Hudini looked down at the irrigated farmland. Rao was mentally prepared before, and was shocked to speak at this time.
From the perspective of a magician, these high-elven magic techniques in Elson City have concepts similar to the differences between "Chinese medicine" and "Western medicine": Rathman's spells are always in "evolution and perfection". Many Ten years ago, spells have now been replaced by endless new spells, because the wizards have found a more reliable theoretical foundation and have improved from it.
But Elson's magic gave Houdini a feeling that could only be described as "unpredictable." Even if he is a Magister, there is no way to fully understand this magic system in a short time, and he can only make a judgment after making a secret comparison.
The comparison results are also obvious: the magic system in front of them is more complex than Lasiman magic, the foundation is more stable, and the upper limit is incalculable ...
Houdini has mixed feelings. The good news is that the strategic cooperation with Elsen City will greatly strengthen his right to speak in the Rahman Parliament and even enter the periphery of the power center. But the worry is that these magic techniques are not The method was immediately accepted by Rasiman, and it would even lead to strong rejection by certain factions. There were many battles to be fought here. When I thought of the old guys in various colleges, Houdini had a headache.
"How does it feel to look up close?"
After two days of communication, Roddy chatted with him a lot more casually. There is no conflict of interest between the two parties, and the win-win policy is very happy, and naturally feels good.
There were only two of them on the floating tower at this time, so that some conversations could go deeper.
"Thank you Lord Lord for giving me this opportunity ... a lot of gains, but there are a lot of people who don't understand." Houdini gestured a lot of respect. The mage is like this. When facing a deeper magic, the awe in his heart is like a believer facing a god. Although this awe does not target Roddy, it makes a subtle difference in the identity between the two.
Roddy waved his hand: "Our cooperation has only just begun, is it important to learn from each other-I'm curious what direction your research on artificial rainfall is going?"
"In principle, it is similar to your set of masters in the city, but there are many differences in details. In fact, the main difference is in the energy consumption of the 'floating tower'. Our core area is limited ..."
"Can't enlarge the core area?"
Roddy is not a high-level wizard, and the level of this question is quite low. Houdini also understood this, and patiently replied: "This involves the issue of accuracy, but also because the floating force needs to be transformed by 'cobalt gold', and we have 'cobalt gold' ... there is not enough credit to spend Here it is. "
Resources are always limited. The only floating towers in Rasiman require a lot of cobalt gold to build, including the floating towers around the flagship "Polatini". According to their own cost, these floating towers The material cost of the tower on cobalt gold is comparable to half of the flagship. Although it is possible to squeeze out a sufficient amount of teeth to promote "artificial rainfall", it is optimistic that it will take 20 years to recover the cost by increasing the output of food ...
Lost trading, naturally no one considered.
"Cobalt gold?"
Roddy thought about it and turned to point to a large ring of blue light flashing in the core area of ​​the floating tower, and asked, "What are you talking about here? We call it Blue Moon Mine."
"Yes." Houdini secretly swallowed, so the large cobalt gold core is worthless, if you carry it back to Rashiman, it is estimated that some people can break their heads to grab it!
"Oh…"
Roddy nodded ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and kept talking for a few words. After the two had watched the artificial rainfall, he and Houdini got off the floating tower together. However, instead of holding a luncheon in a hurry, Roddy directly took Houdini to a magical material library on the side of Pashal's Tower, and opened the door in Houdini's confused eyes.
"Show you something."
Roddy smiled, then opened the door and let Houdini enter.
Houdini was so foggy that he walked around the darker room and asked strangely:
"Lord Lord, what do you want me to see-wait ... it! This is-this is-?!"
Hodini, who had grown up and was instantly out of character, even reached out and grabbed his hair, his eyes glaring round.
In the material library in front of the room, various forms of cobalt gold ore filled the entire wall cabinet ...
Roddy smiled and stood outside the door, whispering softly: "I think ... the cooperation between Elson and Rasiman seems to be closer?"
