Chapter 349 The magical effect of building shadow

Although the Ghost Wine Auction has ended, Gavin feels even busier.

Because only by making full use of these exchanged materials can their due value be realized.

After sending Lord Ilmet and Grand Inquisitor of Wallonia away one after another.

Gavin just took time to run to the new village and said to Copperfield who was busy on the construction site: "General, from now on, your position will not be here, but in the Yewen Pond and the Asaba River."

Copperfield's rigid face showed a smile and said: "I have been waiting for the Lord to say this."

His main ability is on the water, and the warship is the most suitable mount for him.

"Follow me." Gavin took Copperfield straight to the Anbaochuan Village at the Yewen Pond.

On one side of the boat village, there are two brand new cargo ships docked.

When these two cargo ships first came into Gavin's hands, they were not like this.

Instead, they were old and worn, scarred, and could not withstand the strong winds and waves. They were sold to Gavin at a discount of 3,000.

This is the work of the dragon-blooded kobold restorers for five days.

After just a glance, Copperfield said, "These are two long ships, 23 meters long, with a ram hidden under the bow. In addition to a mast that can hang a square sail, there are 50 oars. When the sailors are fully staffed and the wind direction is right, the speed can reach about 10 knots, and if it is upstream, it can reach 3 to 4 knots. The cargo capacity is 50 tons or 120 soldiers."

"Without considering the speed, how many sailors are needed to make it move?" Gavin doesn't need it to be fast at the moment, the main thing is that it can move and transport goods.

Copperfield answered without thinking: "Ten to fifteen people will be enough, but if you want it to have a certain self-defense capability, you need to equip it with twenty-five to thirty people, and the equipment is mainly bows and crossbows."

At this time, the two had boarded the longboat. Gavin pointed to the rows of equipment on it and said: "I have helped you get the equipment, and you are responsible for the sailors. In three days, I will make them move. You are responsible for arranging the corresponding positions on the two ships."

When it comes to operating warships, Gavin is nine out of ten - he knows nothing.

Professional matters should naturally be handed over to professionals, and he only needs to be responsible for the logistics support he is good at.

"Guarantee to complete the task." Copperfield patted his chest and said.

After handing over the two flat-bottomed longboats to Copperfield, Gavin directly activated the Dragon Oak Mother Tree's error-free teleportation and returned to the Dragon Oak Territory.

He still has one thing to verify.

Is the shadowing of the buildings in the Vizeme Manor a distance-free one?

Gavin walked to a pile of high-quality stones that had been prepared long ago, and focused his mind on the special ability of building shadow transformation.

The shadow of Vizeme Manor suddenly appeared behind him.

A stream of negative energy flowed into Gavin's shadow.

Gavin's mind moved, and he hurriedly manipulated the shadow to wrap around the stone.

The negative energy immediately found an outlet and was continuously injected into the stone.

There is a way!

Gavin's face had a trace of unconcealed joy, and his guess was correct.

The ability of building shadow transformation inherited the characteristics of shadow, and it can ignore the distance of the material plane and directly drag over a long distance.

As negative energy is injected, these stones are disappearing from top to bottom.

It can be expected that the opposite scene will definitely happen in Vizeme Manor.

Although it is for the purpose of experiment, it is not easy to return from Vizeme Manor, so naturally we have to convert as much as possible.

High-quality building stones are everywhere in the rock land.

But they have become scarce materials in the Three Rivers.

There is no suitable quarrying site, including the Dun Hills where the Hammer of Justice is located. It is mainly composed of earthen hills, with deep rock layers and mostly limestone, which is not suitable for building stones.

This kind of stone is an excellent material for cement and glass.

The Hammer of Justice Abbey has its own glass and glass firing workshops. The bottles used in the spirits produced by their monastery are all fired by themselves.

Half of the bottles of the ghost wine sold this time are from here.

In the future, the wine bottles of Vizeme Manor will all be from the Hammer of Justice Abbey. This is one of the agreements they just signed, and there is no need to pay extra money. After all, Gavin cannot pay for the production costs alone.

They can only work on tangible assets when they cannot invest in intangible capital like Regina.

Although Valon is not a shrewd businessman, he is good at dealing with people.

There is no free food and free take in the world's benefits.

You must pay a matching amount of effort to be able to last long, especially when cooperating with others.

Therefore, first there was the donation of ghost wine, and then there was the subsequent initiative to make concessions, finding a delicate balance.

In addition to Gavin's irreplaceable role for them, Valon was also very optimistic about this young man, looking forward to him bringing different changes to the valley that was like a pool of stagnant water.

There are quite a few dragon blood kobolds proficient in stone softening, and they are already counted.

However, there are only a few dragon-transformed kobolds proficient in stone shaping.

Just as Gavin had speculated at the beginning, in order to open the dragon transformation, not only do you need to open the career template, but you also need to be at least level 5.

Such kobolds are quite rare.

Everyone who has the ability to shape stones is one of the most important strategic resources of the Dragon Oak Territory. They occupy important jobs and cannot be used easily, such as the solidification of mines.

The conditions for extracting a large number of kobolds with stone shaping skills to start the magic construction are not yet mature.

We can only think of other ways.

The carrying capacity of the Vizeme Manor is calculated by weight, not building area.

One point of carrying capacity can transform one ton of high-quality bluestone.

Gavin transformed a full 200 tons.

It sounds like a lot, but in fact it is only about 30 cubic meters.

If calculated according to modern carrying capacity, it is the carrying capacity of five or six heavy trucks.

But if calculated according to the carrying capacity of carriages, it is amazing, at least hundreds of double-horse heavy cargo carriages must be loaded.

Gavin's abnormal behavior even alarmed Lord Virginia, who asked curiously, "Why are you transporting so many bluestones to the manor? Shouldn't the finished buildings be directly converted to finished buildings in Dragon Oak Territory after the dog-headed people have built them?"

She knew the true situation of Vizeme Manor very well.

Gavin said mysteriously, "I have other uses for you, just wait and see!"

"What new tricks are you going to play?" Virginia saw Gavin's expression and left in no hurry.

According to her understanding of this man, as long as he showed this look, he must be playing a new and ingenious trick.

The posture of Vizeme Manor confirmed this point.

Broken Thorn, Black Heather, Wu Liu, Gavin's core tree warriors were all there.

But Wu Liu was not in the manor, but in an open space outside the manor, rooted. Five trees were distributed in a ring, and the open space they surrounded was full of stones that Gavin had just converted.

These stones were naturally dragged by the broken thorns and black heather that were moving in and out.

Wisps of black mist were emanating from the stones surrounded by Wu Liu, and then absorbed by Wu Liu and reabsorbed into the Vizeme Manor.

Seeing this, Lord Virginia was stunned and said, "Are you using the manor as a teleportation array?"

Gavin said with a look of undisguised pride, "But this method can only transport dead things. Ordinary living things cannot withstand such a large amount of negative energy infusion, and it is one-way, and the efficiency is not particularly high, but it is better than nothing."

"Don't be so ungrateful." Lord Virginia rolled his eyes at his man and said, "Do you know how long it takes for me to transport so many stones? At least a month, your method of transformation and transmission is second only to that kind of advanced teleportation gate, and ordinary restrictive teleportation gates can't achieve this effect."

"Now that you say it, I do seem a little greedy, haha..." Gavin laughed happily, "When you go back, you can ask Eagle Cliff to start building a barn."

This experiment also cleared the last obstacle to building a barn in the manor.

When the grain is shipped out, Wu Liu will be responsible for purifying it.

After the experiment was successful, Gavin was like a big boy who found a new toy. He spent the next few days revolving around it.

In addition to continuing to transport stones, there is another place where they can be used - the ship graveyard in Yevin Pond.

If you want to take out the old ships here, you originally have to wait until the rainy season in Komanso, when the water level of Yevin Pond rises sharply.

Now it is not necessary, just drag them to Vizeme Manor, repair them completely, recycle the negative energy, and transport them back to Yevin Pond.

What is a big project for others is a simple thing for Gavin.

"There are so many old shipwrecks. This is not a ship graveyard in the nearby waters, right?"

"It's almost certain. What did the Lord bring us here for?"

"I don't know. We can't guess what the Lord is thinking."

"Shadow, look, look at the Lord's shadow. It seems to be alive and moving by itself."

"Don't talk nonsense. How could a shadow move by itself? Hiss... It really is. What kind of ability is this?"

"It's strange to see nothing. It's nothing more than controlling shadows or controlling shadows. It's normal for the Lord to have such an ability."

"Controlling shadows is not uncommon, but have you ever seen a shadow that can eat?"

Manipulating the shadow to swallow the half-exposed shipwreck on the water surface bit by bit, especially when a cold breath permeates.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is a creepy scene.

The Tethyr sailors who drove the flat longboat to send Gavin to the ship graveyard were shocked. They felt their scalps tingling and cold air coming up from the soles of their feet.

Fortunately, Gavin now has a very majestic image in their minds, and is equal to omnipotence.

Can a man who can make millions of dollars a day with a flip of his hand be an ordinary person?

Forcibly suppressing the urge to jump and run away, and carefully observing the fantasy scene in front of them, they feel that the shadow under Gavin's control is very similar to the ghost manor.

Not to mention those ordinary Tessel sailors, even Copperfield, who has a wide range of experience, was shocked and asked with his eyes wide open: "Lord, what is going on?"

"The ghost manor has the ability to turn things into shadows and drag them into the manor through the shadow plane, and Wu Liu has the effect of purifying negative energy." Gavin briefly introduced it.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Copperfield sucked in a breath of cold air, his eyes widened, "This ability is really too powerful, plus the spell-like abilities of those kobolds, it will take a few days to completely repair these sunken ships..."

As he spoke, Copperfield suddenly thought of a possibility, and his hands trembled involuntarily, "Lord, is there a distance limit for this shadow transformation?"

"Theoretically, there shouldn't be, at least in Faerun, it shouldn't be a big problem." Gavin answered conservatively.
