Chapter 584 585. The Priest in Distress
The mage named Elaud took out a white hexagonal test magic crystal from his magic pocket, and followed Roy to a magic tower on the edge of the camp.
This kind of magic tower built around the expeditionary camp is very simple. It is surrounded by a wall made of stones, but a layer of dirt is smeared on the surface of the stone wall to make the surface of the wall very smooth.
This kind of magic tower has only one floor. Inside is a magic center made of magic crystal. The magic center is placed on top of a magic pattern array. The abundant magic power gathered by the magic pattern array is concentrated by the magic center. Pass to the top of the tower.
At the top of the tower is a mana transmitter made of mithril. This mana transmitter is tilted and pointed toward the sky above the Dark Portal. It is at the same angle as the other fifteen mana transmitters. In this way, the magic power transmitted by the sixteen magic towers The beams finally converged just above the Dark Door, forming a huge magic light group.
These magic beams are filled with magic force fields between each other...
It is the existence of the magic force field that forms a magic shield between the sixteen magic beams that shields the perception of dark creatures.
Magister Elaud first checked the magic center, and then checked the magic pattern array on the ground, and told Roy the working principles of these magic devices.
Roy followed Magister Elaud, feeling extremely confused inside.
He is not a magician, how can he understand these things.
But he didn't dare to offend this magister. In his usual life trajectory, it was almost impossible to meet such a magister. Even if he didn't understand, he had to try hard to listen carefully. Roy listened. listen……
One thing he heard very clearly was that these magic towers required a large amount of magic crystals to maintain the normal operation of the magic center.
The priests of the Temple of Liberty did not leave any magic crystals for Roy. The magic crystals in the grooves of these magic pattern crystals were almost half burned. Magister Elaud told Roy that he needed to use them as soon as possible. Prepare a batch of magic crystals, otherwise once the mana supply is interrupted, the magic shield of the expeditionary camp will disappear instantly.
Roy immediately applied for a batch of magic crystals from the commander of the Gabriel Regiment. The adjutant quickly passed through the Dark Portal with the application form written by Roy himself.
Not long after, the adjutant brought back two boxes of magic crystals.
It can be seen that Commander Gabrielle still attaches great importance to the guarding of the expeditionary camp.
After all sixteen magic towers were inspected, Magister Elaud left in a hurry...
…
Roy originally planned to hang a ball of sacred light over the camp. The best location was in a small square that was not very big in front of the holy pool, so that the sacred light could radiate to the entire small square.
He also asked all mixed-blood elf warriors to sit quietly in the small square for a quarter of an hour every day...
But Roy soon discovered that the sacred aura next to the pool was very strong, and these sacred auras continued to spread to the surroundings. These sacred auras could dispel the dark aura attached to the mixed elf warriors, and the effect was very good.
So Roy told the mixed elf warriors to sit by the pool in the small square for a while when they rested.
In addition, Roy also made some attempts in remote corners of the expeditionary camp. He tried to rotate the magic vortex around the Holy Light Tree to maximize the absorption of those Holy Light particles floating in the air. As expected, the Holy Light particles were extremely rare. It’s not that there are none at all, just very few.
Roy may have to spend five times more time than usual to restore the power of Holy Light in his body to its full state.
But as long as Roy returns to the holy pool in front of the Dark Door, the power of holy light in his body will recover very quickly.
In fact, Roy has always suspected that there might be a holy artifact hidden in this pool. Otherwise, how could the pool continuously produce holy water?
But Roy walked around the pool for a long time. The entire pool was made of ordinary pebbles. The pool was extremely clear. You could see the bottom of the pool at a glance. There were no artifacts with a strong sacred aura.
The magisters have been looking for the reason for the collapse of the Dark Gate around the stone pillars of the Dark Gate. However, since the sealing circle on the Golfito Canyon side has been dismantled, there is no surging magic tide, and the situation of the Dark Gate has changed. gradually stabilized.
So the magisters began to try to find the specific reason why the sealing circle and the dark door were mutually exclusive.
…
Because of the protection of the magic shield, few dark creatures will enter the expeditionary camp, so the mixed-blood elf warriors of the mine guard group only need to take turns guarding the sixteen magic towers.
In just a few days, Roy gradually became familiar with the expeditionary camp.
This is a very secluded canyon. Only in the 'daylight' of the dark place, some dark creatures will appear.
Roy was worried that taking rash actions would expose the expeditionary camp, so he didn't try to get out of the expeditionary camp in the past few days.
The commander of the Gabriel Regiment has indeed fulfilled his promise. The first batch of military supplies was transported into the expeditionary camp, and the supplies contained a full barrel of life tree sap.
The tree sap of life is of very limited help to Roy, but it is an absolute tonic for the elves. The healthy growth of the elves cannot be separated from the nourishment of the tree sap of life.
Many elves like to build cities around the Tree of Life, hoping to get some of the sap.
The ordinary Silver Moon elves living in the city actually have some quota of life sap, but they can only be allocated diluted life sap at most, and that's only twice a month. The Silver Moon elves in the army can receive a cup of diluted life sap every week, and their treatment is better than that of ordinary Silver Moon elves.
As for the Silver Moon Elf nobles in the city, they control the distribution of life sap.
Roy applied for life tree sap from the commander of the Gabriel Reiss Corps, just to fundamentally improve the physique of these mixed elf warriors.
The purpose of letting them enter the expeditionary camp in the Dark Land is to continuously infect themselves with the dark aura, and then use the sacred aura to disperse it little by little. This can slowly increase the affinity of the sacred element, and also increase the power of the dark element appropriately. Resistance.
Sure enough, the mixed-blood elf warrior who often sits by the pool will have some sacred aura in his body.
Some mixed-blood elf warriors can even gather the sacred aura in their bodies on their fingertips to form a small flame of light. The situation was just like Roy's back then.
So Roy would ask them if they felt a seed with a sacred aura appearing in their bodies...
The mixed-blood elf warriors shook their heads, indicating that they did not feel this way.
Immediately afterwards, Roy handed over the simplest 'low-light lighting technique' to these mixed elves.
Although this divine pattern could not be simpler for Roy, and the prayer was also very brief, these mixed elf warriors tried to learn it, but the situation happened frequently. Roy worked hard to teach three Oh my God, no mixed-blood elf warrior can display the 'Glimmer Illumination Technique'.
After living in the expeditionary camp for half a month, Roy began to be no longer satisfied with being able to move around in the camp. He wanted to get out of the magic shield, see the world outside the shield, and see the dark creatures outside the camp.
Roy would stand next to the magic shield every day and observe the world outside the camp at close range.
But the expedition camp was surrounded by a valley, so he could only hide in the camp and take a rough look at the surrounding mountains...
This was once the starting point of the Lady of Liberty Temple Expeditionary Force. Roy stretched out a finger and touched the magic shield. Circles of ripples appeared on the magic shield.
‘Let’s observe it for a few more days! ’
Roy thought to himself, and then gave up the idea of sneaking out.
The sixteen magic towers consume a large amount of magic crystals every day. Fortunately, these magic crystals are all provided by the military. Roy looked at the magic beam that was like a torrent and could only secretly click his tongue in his heart.
A mixed elf patrol team quickly passed through the layers of tents and finally found Roy at the Magic Tower.
The leader of the mixed-blood elf captain calmed his breathing slightly and reported to Roy Hui: "Boss, when we were patrolling near Magic Tower No. 9, we found a priest lying outside the camp!"
Roy raised his head suddenly and ordered to the half-blood elf captain:
"Take me there quickly..."
After speaking, Roy stood up, and the half-blood elf captain turned around to lead the way. Soon the group came to the side of Magic Tower No. 9. Roy stood in the magic shield, and under the fingers of the half-blood elf captain Under his guidance, he saw a ragged priest lying outside the shield.
Roy couldn't tell whether he was alive or dead.
He lay motionless on the ground, not even ten meters away from the magic light shield at the expeditionary camp...
Roy looked up at the earth-red sky, thought again and again before saying to the mixed-blood elf warriors beside him: "I'll go out and drag him back, and you guys will meet me in the camp!"
"Boss, let me go!"
"Please let me go..."
The surrounding mixed-blood elves warriors took the initiative to apply. Roy skillfully condensed a ball of sacred light above his head, and then asked the surrounding mixed-blood elves:
"Whoever among you has learned the 'Low Light Illumination Technique', I can give him the opportunity to go outside to retrieve corpses..."
Roy glanced around. The mixed elf warriors looked embarrassed. At this time, no one took the initiative to stand up.
Roy smiled at them and pushed one hand towards the magic light shield. His hand instantly passed through the shield and entered the real dark place. The surrounding rich dark atmosphere was like a thick fog, wrapping Roy arms...
Roy took a deep breath and quickly got into the dark world.
The mixed-blood elf warriors hiding behind the shield saw Roy's body exuding a faint sacred light, and quickly ran to the fallen priest not far away. Roy first turned him over, and then He put his hand under the priest's nose to test whether he was still breathing.
Feeling a slight heat on the pads of his fingers, Roy got a little excited and couldn't help but muttered:
"It's alive..."
