No matter how good the architectural drawings are, they must be able to be manipulated.
After Zong Shen knew it well, he didn't waste any more time on the issue of [Monument of Great Harvest (Golden)].
He directly reached out and took the eighth ball of light.
This light ball contained a special scroll, and Zong Shen was no stranger to it.
That was the [Special Weather Scroll (Orange)]. He had seen the [Advanced Weather Scroll (Purple)] in the [Points Blind Box] selection before, which could change the climate within a ten-kilometer radius.
However, he did not choose the weather scroll that time, but finally chose the [City Lord's Mansion Fortress Form Advanced Route (Special)], which directly turned the common lord's courtyard into a strong lord's fortress.
But I didn't expect that a more advanced weather scroll would be opened in the good luck ticket.
This is probably destiny.
He took a casual look, wanting to see the difference between the orange legendary scroll and the purple rare scroll.
If the ability to regulate climate change were stronger, it would be comparable to natural disasters.
The golden subtitles appeared as always, and Alpha next to him also gave a brief introduction in a routine manner.
There was nothing in the recent offerings that shocked him.
Moreover, he could also tell that Zong Shen was not paying much attention to his introduction, so his explanations became more and more perfunctory, and a kind of tacit understanding of foreigners developed between the two.
Zong Shen stared at the information on the golden subtitles and quickly figured out its function.
[Special grade weather scroll (orange)]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Effect: Special weather adjustment (can produce effects within a radius of 20 kilometers, ranging from heavy rain, thunderstorms, acid rain, high temperature drought, dry hot wind, heat wave, freezing rain, heavy snow, hail, dense fog, low-altitude wind shears, strong winds, tornadoes Choose one of them and adjust the weather changes. Depending on the range environment, the effects of different weather changes will fluctuate to a certain extent and last up to 1 hour)]
[This scroll can only be used once]
【(Click to use)】
(A scroll that can adjust the weather to a certain extent. There are many types of optional weather.
But you should pay attention to the environment in which you activate the scroll. If you activate the heavy rain effect in the desert, although it will eventually rain, it will definitely not achieve the effect like that of Nandi Zeguo.
It is worth mentioning that in many cases you can obtain specific spellcasting gains by adjusting the weather, and the specific usage needs to be determined based on actual conditions)
…
"It's not of much use, but it might be useful..."
Zong Shen pinched the bridge of his nose and put it away after understanding its function.
This level of weather adjustment may seem magical, but in reality its effect is very limited.
For example, in the case of a large-scale invasion of territory, even if the bad weather is adjusted in the area where the enemy is located, it will be difficult to determine the outcome.
All serious military units have means to deal with climate disasters.
Moreover, this weather change is just a simple climate change, and does not involve the game of magic. Of course, under certain climate environments, some elemental magic will be strengthened or weakened.
For example, water spellcasters and fire spellcasters in heavy rain are the best examples.
As for using this scroll to deal with enemy cities, there are actually great limitations.
Both state cities and giant cities have a certain ability to withstand climate disasters.
Simple weather changes cannot cause much damage.
It also has to be under specific conditions. Maybe climate change can cause a chain reaction and work wonders.
In addition, the effective range weather scroll with a radius of 25 kilometers can also play an auxiliary role in many situations.
Next it's time to check out the items in the ninth light ball.
If [Special Weather Scroll (Orange)] just makes him feel that it is of little use.
Then this thing in the ninth light ball left Zong Shen a little speechless.
This turned out to be an item marked with the suffix [Damage].
[Damage] can also be regarded as a quality level, but it is quite rare.
It is even one level lower than the gray damage level.
You must know that although gray items are junk, they are at least still usable, while [damaged] items are completely unusable.
But when Zong Shen saw the whole thing, he felt relieved.
This thing is [Stormwind City’s Gray Hearthstone (Damaged)].
Before this, Zong Shen had come into contact with two items related to Stormwind City.
It was also during the [Points Blind Box] period. At that time, one of the blind boxes contained an item called [Stormwind City Lord's Diary Fragment]. Zong Shen weighed it at that time and did not choose to exchange it.
Next is a [Stormwind City Medal of Honor (Damaged)], which was found in the old magic storage box found in the ruins of the Knights of the Lion.
The Knights of the Lion happen to be the human knights of the last era.
Regarding the damaged medal, the guide notes also mentioned an origin:
Stormwind City is one of the five major cities of mankind in the last era, and it must have far-reaching significance.
Judging from the current situation, Stormwind City must have been lost. Zong Shen did not delve into this, and he did not know where the ruins of Stormwind City were.
Now he has obtained another [Grey Hearthstone of Stormwind City (Damaged)]. Maybe this is some kind of hint.
Zong Shen doesn't believe in fate, but after encountering it many times, he will always have some ideas.
The surface of the hearth stone in his hand was gray and covered with large and small cracks.
It looks a bit like ordinary pebbles that have been roasted by charcoal fire. The size is close to a baby's fist, which is not too big.
The hearthstone feels strange to the touch, and feels cold to the touch.
It's not smooth when you rub it, but it doesn't feel sticky either.
Zong Shen turned his wrist, coiled up the stone, and played with it, but he didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of being crushed by the thing.
Playing with this ancient gray hearthstone, Zong Shen did not immediately check its properties.
Instead, he first asked the strategy module in his mind.
"Please tell me where Stormwind City and its ruins are located."
For this kind of stereotyped question, the strategy module can respond almost immediately.
(Stormwind City is located on the northwest coast of the Endless Continent, in the north of Elwynn Forest. During the last era, it once became the main human city with the largest population. According to the distribution of forces in the last era, Stormwind City is located adjacent to the Beast people's habitat
It was destroyed by the joint attack of the eight main legions of the Blood-Burning Demons. In fact, Stormwind City persisted for a long time in the early days of the end of the era. It also actively responded to the formation of the coalition and sent many powerful knights to support various places. However, in In the middle and late stages of the end of the era, they were targeted
Today's ruins of Stormwind City have long since sunk into the ground under the bombardment of multiple super-level forbidden spells, and after tens of thousands of years of vicissitudes, they have now become part of the Elwynn Mountains)
…
"The northwest coast of the continent?"
"Isn't it within the scope of the Rhodok Kingdom and the Kugit Kingdom?"
"Then Aze should be closer to there."
Zong Shen quickly knew the approximate location of the ruins of Stormwind City based on the geographical information he knew.
It was extremely far away from his own territory. With his current situation, it was not easy to get there. Even if he walked in a straight line, he would have to cross the territory of two or three kingdoms.
During this period, there were various dangerous areas and desperate areas. In some areas, even the giant city-level teleportation array could not construct a direct route, and it was necessary to go around the giant city in other directions.
So even though Zong Shen had some curiosity and ideas about Stormwind City, reality prevented him from exploring Stormwind City.
But it doesn't matter. According to the progress of most lords, it will take at least two or three years of development cycle before the lords can reach the higher-level ruins.
The current lord can only dig through less dangerous ruins and explore the ruins of an ancient tomb.
Zong Shen curled his lips. The area of the Endless Continent was too vast, and conventional spatial methods seemed very feeble on such a regional scale.
Even if he wants to go to other kingdoms or regions in the continent, it will take a lot of effort.
Not to mention other lords, it would be good if they could manage this three-acre land in the advent area. The era of real exploration of the continent will not come in the short term.
In Zong Shen's view, this should also be a protective measure for the lord system.
Ensure that the ancient ruins that exist in various places will not be surrounded by powerful people for a period of time.
At least it can ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to explore the ruins and harvest the items and inheritance left by the ancient civilization.
At the same time, the vast giant continent just proved the insignificance of the lords.
After knowing that there would be no chance to explore the ruins of Stormwind City in a short time, Zong Shen accepted this idea.
He lowered his head to look at the gray hearthstone in his palm, and in a perfunctory manner called out the system prompts and strategy notes to check it out.
[Dark Hearthstone of Stormwind City (Damaged)]
[Effect: None]
[Damaged state, loss of function]
(Well, no wonder your kid wanted to ask about the location of Stormwind City. It turns out he got the Hearthstone.
Since this hearth stone is in a bad state and may not be able to function as it should, this guide will explain it to you.
Hearthstone is a space teleportation item developed by the human race in the last era, but its principle is different from today's space teleportation array.
As we all know, time and space are the two most profound basic rules. They are interdependent and represent the change and existence of matter.
The principle of space transmission is regarded as a hope to break through the scale boundaries of the vast continent.
Today's space teleportation array uses the mutual induction between two teleportation arrays to perform small-scale space exchange, so the range is extremely limited.
The space shuttle technology used in the last era was even more avant-garde. Many space magisters and great magisters developed ways to open fixed virtual channels in space.
The virtual channel can directly connect the two ends of the space, similar to two points on a piece of paper, which can be overlapped through a specific folding method. The main virtual channel exits are set in major cities.
Each hearth stone uses the power to temporarily open a virtual channel, allowing the hearth stone to span an astonishing distance of tens of millions or even tens of millions of kilometers through the virtual channel.
It is a pity that the method of establishing a virtual channel has long been lost, and the relevant books and memories have been directly erased. This is a limitation made by the lord system, otherwise today's aborigines would not use the cumbersome giant city-level space teleportation array series connection. connected by
This limits the efficiency of space movement to a certain extent, and naturally also limits the pace of lord expansion.
In addition, I would like to mention something here about the human race in the last era.
They are not the same as the aboriginal people of today's human kingdom. They are truly ancient human races.
At present, some of the ancient human races have merged with the human aborigines, while others are scattered in the area from the Kingdom of Swadia to the Kingdom of Vaegia in the North.
Although the technology regarding the virtual channel has been completely erased, there are still some clues left in the ancient human race. You may need it in the future. As long as you can win over enough space magicians, you may be able to study it again.
Finally, it’s about the hearthstone in your hand
There's no doubt it's in a severely damaged state, but not irreparable
It just requires the assistance of many master craftsmen and space magisters in different fields.
The difficulty of re-engraving the virtual channel is extremely high, compared to the difficulty of repairing this hearth stone, it is not that high.
After all, the hearthstone is just a node that enters the virtual channel. The spatial principles involved are still within the range that can be quickly analyzed. The materials required for repair are not complicated, but the process is particular.
After you repair this hearthstone, you can use its power to enter the virtual channel and quickly shuttle through the ruins of the five major cities of the ancient human race. In terms of aspects, it will help you to be efficient in the endless continent for a period of time. of traffic)
…
Zong Shen looked at the lengthy strategy notes with some surprise.
But after he read the contents of the note, he immediately understood the value of this hearth stone.
To put it simply, the ancient human race of the last era once had more efficient space methods.
That is the Void Channel and the Hearthstone. Even though the Endless Continent is vast, the ancient human race can use this method to achieve rapid travel.
Unexpectedly, after the arrival of the new era, technology was "locked" by the lord system.
No wonder today's human kingdoms all use teleportation arrays to travel quickly.
The basic principle of the teleportation array determines that it has an upper limit on the teleportation distance.
Of course, the strong men and nobles among the aboriginal people may have some props or magical objects that can be teleported over long distances, but they are destined to be unable to be popularized.
A layout that can be popularized is to use giant cities as units to arrange teleportation nodes to respond to other giant cities within the teleportation range, thereby performing space exchange.
In this way, although ultra-long distance transmission is possible, the process becomes extremely cumbersome.
On the other hand, the virtual channel is simply advanced by several levels!
There is a huge difference in efficiency between the two!
Let’s not mention the re-study of the virtual channel for now, just keep it in mind as a hidden clue.
There are still many places worth studying and digging into on this issue!
