Chapter 710: Castle in the Sky

The Magic Tower is a very useful fixed asset for spellcasters, serving as their sanctuary, research center, and fortress. Due to the powerful magical powers they wield, many divine spells surround and protect the building.

For those spellcasters who possess it, the Tower of Magic serves as a shield, a haven of refuge in times of danger, and a reliable refuge for mages from powerful enemies or great chaos.

It is also the Spear, and by utilizing magical engineering, radiation, magical turbulence, and other mystical forces gained from various arcane lore, the caster can construct a spear that greatly enhances his arcane abilities, allowing him to extend his control Buildings of elements, planes, and other abilities bring the most complete destruction to the enemy.

At the same time, the magic tower can provide the most important scientific research environment for the casters who use it. For many spellcasters, knowledge is power. The magic tower can provide various effective functions and necessary books, items, equipment, space, etc. Let the caster complete every step of his research without leaving home.

In short, for spellcasters, the relationship between them and their magic tower is very close. Through precise calculations and arrangements, the magic tower and its owner establish a connection, so that the magic power of the two can flow into each other, and gather the surrounding magic power to the magic tower. In many respects, the magic tower is not so much a residential building as it is a gathering and channeling device for magical energy.

Essentially, a magic tower is a building-level magic item. The building was designed and structured to gather magic. The shape of the tower, the towering and upright structure are all to meet this purpose, which is why spellcasters like to build towering mage towers so much.

This law is common in most worlds, even in the Harry Potter world where the magic civilization is not very developed. Be it Hogwarts, Nurmengard or Hogwarts. These sites that have been studied by wizards for a long time have one thing in common, that is, these sites have tall towers.

For example, taking Hogwarts as an example, Ravenclaw, which devotes the most energy to magic research, has its own tower. This can already explain the effect of this tower design on the user's focus on magic power.

Of course, not every spellcaster has his own magic tower. Or to be precise, only a very small number of spellcasters can have a magic tower of their own. Some spellcasters can only borrow magic towers by attaching to some powerful mages or forces, while most spellcasters have never even used magic towers in their entire lives.

The reason for this situation is that the cost of building such an enchanted building is staggering. Even if the caster has enough resources to build his own magic tower, he often only builds the most basic tower instead of an entire castle. Take the magical buildings that Ryan has seen as an example. Those who build castles are either extremely rich or have a long history. There are even two reasons.

For Ryan, who has mastered massive resources in several worlds, since he is determined to build a magic tower, he will naturally choose the best one. Therefore, a single magic tower is naturally not his goal, and a city in the sky like Laputa is his ideal construction model.

The core of the magic tower is the energy mechanism, also known as the energy pool. Fortunately, Ryan has used flying stone crystals to solve this most critical problem before. The next job is to build a house as the central room of the entire magic tower, and all other rooms in the magic tower are based on this central room. foundation stone built.

The book says that it is best to use some stable and strong materials for the construction of the central room. The most important thing about these materials is that they have enough magic shielding effect and high enough strength. Hermione read while holding a copy of Arcane Geometry , In terms of material selection, metal is the first choice, followed by alchemy stone fused with metal.

For example, the magic tower we saw at Ms. Silver Moon last time was said to use a lot of metal ore to make it, and the cost is much higher than ordinary magic towers.

I choose materials better than they choose. While they were talking, puppet robots borrowed from Laputa came out of a space door one by one, and moved out one piece after another of silver-white metal ingots.

Is this magic metal? Hermione looked at the metal ingots that gradually piled up in front of her in surprise, and she could feel a faint magical reaction on these metals. I read in the book before that only the gods will use metal as the main body to build their temples.

Don't forget, the world where Silvermoon City is located is equivalent to our Middle Ages. They smelt metals purely by hand. How can there be too much metal for mages to squander in this situation? Metal Hill Ryan shrugged, And there is a modern industrialized society behind us.

This shouldn't be iron. Hermione stepped forward and picked up a piece of silver-white metal. It's light and fluffy in your hand, you don't mean to use aluminum alloy?

Of course not. Ryan also picked up a metal ingot and injected a little magic power. In an instant, the piece of metal emitted a faint blue light, like some kind of radioactive metal. This is a titanium alloy. When smelting, I also added a little bit of mithril to make them into a magic alloy.

Soon, these puppets built a room out of titanium alloy components of different sizes. After that, Ryan stepped forward and used the power of the Madonna of the Rose to integrate the whole room, and then placed the golden ball on the altar built with a whole piece of amethyst in the middle of the room.

In an instant, the whole room emitted a blue light, and a large number of complex golden runes were revealed from the metal walls. Hermione had a feeling that the house in front of her seemed to come alive all of a sudden.

Okay, the first cornerstone of the Magic Tower has been laid. Ryan pulled Hermione to the front of the house at this time, and in an instant the room revealed a gap that could accommodate two people to enter and exit.

After they entered the room, the passage disappeared again, and the whole room returned to a state of unity. But although the room has no doors and windows, it is filled with soft light. The light comes from the four walls of the room, the floor, and the ceiling.

The walls, ceiling and floor are now densely covered with various runes, magic circles and mysterious patterns composed of golden light, and they illuminate the entire house. Other than that, there is almost nothing in the room, only a three-story round amethyst altar that is as tall as a person is placed in the center of the floor, and the golden ball that is the energy core is now quietly suspended about one meter above the altar .

Next, we need to float this room 20 meters above the ground, and then start building from the lower half of Sky City. After speaking, Ryan made a gesture, and a rune on the golden ball lit up. Hermione immediately felt the floor under her feet start to rise slowly, as if she was sitting in a rising elevator.

For the next seven months, Ryan and the others built a floating castle little by little with the help of tens of thousands of puppets and robots. The castle has everything a magic tower should have, such as magic gardens, laboratories, blasting rooms, libraries, discovery rooms, and workshops. In addition, this magic castle also has an artificial intelligence of its own.

Now we can go back. Looking at the dark blue roof floating in the air, the white walls are like a castle from a fairy tale. Ryan said to Hermione who was standing beside him, I have to say, the gifts we got on this Christmas trip are really great.
