Constructing-Style Wizard

The fortress occupied by the Elemental Judgment is called Platsburg.

This fortress is not as luxurious as the Yongjin Fortress of the Wealth Co-creation Association, but it has all the magic facilities needed for a magic fortress.

The Wizards' Advancement Club has set up magic forts to resist the riots of lightning ghosts, as well as magic circles that can cast large magic barriers.

With these two things in place, the safety of the magic research institution is guaranteed.

Members of the Trial of Elements, such as Maevele, Betty, and Filia, came to the eternal tribulation through the portal and flight.

They didn't pay for teleportation this time.

Baldr's Gate is located on the westernmost side of Cahill Continent, 200 kilometers west of Eternal Tribulation Thunder Crater.

The headquarters of Elemental Judgment is Starlight City, the capital of Unas Ring.

The distance between the two is at least seven thousand kilometers.

Unas Ring has specially opened permanent portals in Starlight City and Baldur's Gate.

Wizards can use the portal to quickly go back and forth between the two places.

All members of the Magic Research Institute can enjoy a free teleportation service, which is much more convenient than when studying aberrations in the aggregation city.

After Maevele led the team to Plasburg, the first thing to do was to repair the magic facilities in the fort.

During this period, Denise and Louisa came to visit.

Denise handed Li Nuo's letter to Maevele, and explained that Li Nuo hired Louisa to help protect Platsberg.

Maeve Le readily accepts Li Nuo's arrangement.

Once Denise and Louisa settled in Platsborough, the two began building the death magic device for Maevele.

This set has one and only one purpose.

That is to transform the manic and ignorant ghost creatures into controllable and restrained ghost creatures.

After the lightning ghost enters it, it will come out as a lightning ghost.

Ghost creatures are easier to tame than wraiths.

As long as this step is completed, Maevele can try to transform the lightning ghost into a magic puppet.

Just as Denise and Luisa were tinkering with the magic device, Li Nuo came back from the outside.

The appearance of Platsburg is quite simple. It is a stone castle with mottled exterior walls and covered with vines, standing in the dense forest on the top of the mountain.

Li Nuo landed directly in the courtyard of the castle without relying on flying spells.

According to the normal visit procedure, he landed outside the gate of the castle vestibule, and used the magic doorbell on the door to call the elemental trial wizard in the castle.

The biggest feature of elemental wizards is that they have many elemental creatures.

In Aggregation City, because the Alchemy Sanctuary does not allow the Trial of Elements to use too much magic power, Maevele is more "constrained".

But here in Yongjie Leiqian, Mae Fule doesn't have this concern.

Her research team this time only has six students of her own, and the rest of the chores and tiring work are all handed over to the elemental creatures on the elemental subplane.

The earth wind crystal cluster that opened the door and led the way for Li Nuo is a standard elemental creature.

Its main body is an elemental crystal with energy tentacles extending out, containing the energy of earth element and wind element.

The energy of the wind element gives it the characteristic of "constant suspension", and the energy of the earth element allows it to control the energy tentacles and use cleaning tools.

These two advantages are superimposed together, and the earth wind crystal cluster becomes the best helper for elemental wizards to perform at home.

Li Nuo stepped into the vestibule of the castle, walked through the corridor, passed the small garden, and saw Maevele, Filia, and Betty who were packing their luggage in the hall.

When she left Dianjindao, Fei Liya was a wizard of the third ring, and now she has just stepped into the fourth ring and is sprinting for the fifth ring.

Betty is one ring lower than Filia and is now a three-ring wizard.

This girl is eccentric and can't hide her thoughts.

The first time he saw Li Nuo, he winked at him and looked him up and down without any fear.

Maevele has not yet completed the research task, and is still the sixth ring.

When Li Nuo saw her, he immediately cast the deconstruction technique and obtained fragments of her recent memories.

The memory fragments show that it was not Maevele who disclosed Li Nuo's whereabouts to the Jingguang Court and the Wealth Co-creation Association.

Li Nuo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

Even if there is a soul contract between him and the other party, it is inevitable that he will be worried about betrayal.

After all, among the many soul contract objects, only Maevele has not seen him for a long time, and the relationship is a little estranged.

This time, we have to strengthen it.

"Jarvis, you're here." Maevele held a notebook in her hand and looked at Li Nuo:

"Dinas said, you seem to be in a little trouble, do you need me to communicate with the Wealth Co-creation Association?"

Li Nuo shook his hand:

"No need for now, Maevele. Elder Lan Jin made a mistake with the list of wizards, criminals and VIPs, and he has already apologized to me in person. He also gave me a magic contract to join the Wealth Creation Association."

Betty and Filia have no idea about the threshold of "joining the Wealth Co-Creation Association".

Maevele is very clear.

She was slightly startled and asked:

"Elder Lan Jin invited you to join the Co-Creation Association? This...you are so rich now?"

"Rich?" Betty was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened, trying to see some clues related to "rich" from Li Nuo's unpretentious attire.

Filia's emotional expression is relatively reserved.

Confusion flashed across her beautiful eyes, and she blinked at Li Nuo.

"I was lucky in the Suman Islands, and I happened to find some useful dragon treasures."

Li Nuo grinned and laughed at himself:

"I made money by relying on these treasures. I never thought that I would be targeted by the Wealth Co-creation Association as soon as I came to Cahill Continent."

Maeve was thoughtful.

She probably guessed why the Blue and Gold Elders deliberately made trouble for Li Nuo, and then asked him to sign a magic contract.

This is undoubtedly a common method used by local snakes to suppress wealthy foreign wizards.

The purpose is to force Li Nuo to pay money to join the co-creation association.

The best solution is undoubtedly to spend money to eliminate the disaster.

But how to say this kind of advice to persuade others to spend money... Mevle was a little embarrassed.

Li Nuo looked at Ma Fule who was hesitant to speak, waved his hand and said:

"I will solve this problem, you don't have to worry about me... I will help you build the death magic device first, and we will talk after you have decorated the castle."

"Okay, Jarvis." Maeve Le pointed to the corridor beside the wall:

"Dinace and Louisa are right there."

Li Nuo waved his hand, said goodbye to the three of them, and stepped into the corridor.

In the magic laboratory on the first floor, Li Nuo found the two Dinas who were carving a magic circle.

While he was working on it, he launched the deconstruction technique on Louisa.

This time, his main goal of deconstruction is to obtain information related to the "Barren Stone Quarry".

He needs to know the layout of the mining site, the underground mine route map, the composition of the personnel, etc.

The most important thing is to master the basic information about underground monsters.

If possible, Li Nuo wanted to attribute the casualties in the future execution of the "counterattack plan" to the underground monsters.

In this way, the suspicion on himself can be cleared, and the attention of the Jingguang Court and the Wealth Co-creation Association can be diverted.

The prerequisite for this is to capture an underground monster alive, use deconstruction techniques on it, and then carefully lay out the plan of "Shark Borrower".

"Dinas, Louisa, I'm leaving for a while."

After Li Nuo read Louisa's decomposition results, he said hello to the other two, turned around and took off on the terrace.

During the flight, he activated his "soul induction" and told Dinas about his next actions.

Although Dinas was a little puzzled by Li Nuo's sudden visit to explore the quarry, she did not inquire further.

She obediently agreed to Li Nuo to help him teleport between the two places.

At the same time, Dinasi will help Li Nuo cover up his whereabouts.

…

…

There are no ordinary people in the barren rock quarry.

All are wizards.

The wizards responsible for mining range in strength from the third ring to the fifth ring. They are all metal or geotechnical wizards and come from Creeping City.

The wizards who work as guards start at the fifth ring of strength and reach the top of the seventh ring. They are all wizards from the Wealth Co-creation Association and master metal magic.

The idea of ​​casting geotechnical magic from underground and entering underground mine tunnels is not very realistic.

Li Nuo gave up without even thinking about it.

In order to prevent theft, the Wealth Co-creation Association has placed magic instruments to detect energy fluctuations and vibrations in the soil around the rock quarry.

It is unlikely that Li Nuo used geotechnical skills to bypass these magical instruments and enter the mine without anyone noticing.

But, he was looking for underground monsters, not magical materials in the mines.

Mine tunnels are roads paved specifically for mining ore.

Wherever mining is done, roads are paved.

Two or three thousand meters deep underground, in areas that have not yet been mined by quarries, there are no roads, and naturally there are no magic instruments to protect them.

It is precisely because of this that the wizards who built the mining tunnels for the mining sites were attacked by monsters two to three thousand meters underground.

The above information comes from Louisa's memory fragments.

He came to a place more than ten kilometers away from the waste rock quarry and carved the topographic map of the underground terrain on the spot.

"Um…

"The quarry generally extends vertically downward and is divided into five areas. These five areas are distributed along the central shaft pipe and extend in the horizontal direction. The entire quarry can be seen as an irregular barrel shape.

"Starting from where I am now, traveling vertically downward for 2,375 meters, I can reach the horizontal plane where the shaft pipe ends. From there, proceeding horizontally 12 kilometers north will reach the deepest part of the quarry."

Li Nuo wrote and drew on his notepad, repeatedly deducing the process of moving underground.

The underground environment is not as good as the ground. There are mud, rock formations and cavities in all directions. If not done properly, serious house collapse will occur.

The underground environment is not as good as the ground. There are mud, rock formations and cavities in all directions. If not done properly, serious house collapse will occur.

Li Nuo will place "tracking markers" on the ground so that he doesn't worry about getting lost underground, but the magic instrument that detects fluctuations is always a hidden danger.

There is no specific location of these instruments in Louisa's memory fragments.

Li Nuo could only roughly guess their location and plan a route to avoid them in advance.

After half an hour of preparation, Li Nuo used the "Spirit of Rock" to summon a magic assistant to dig a hole in the ground.

The rock spirit, who was two heads taller than Li Nuo, waved his fist towards the ground, blasting away the soil under his feet, creating a crack in the ground that allowed him and his master to pass through.

A smooth stone wall appears on the ground crack, consolidating the shape of the ground crack and preventing it from collapsing in a short period of time.

The spirit of the rock opened its way downwards, waving its fists continuously and digging the tunnel with clanging sounds.

Li Nuo activates the "Breath of the Dead" and changes into a skeleton form that does not require breathing.

He jumped down from the ground, used the flying technique, and followed the spirit of the rock to move downward.

After their figures were swallowed up by the dark cracks in the ground, the soil on the ground quickly squirmed and sewed the ground together.

This is Li Nuo activating the geotechnical spell mastered by the spirit of rock, smoothing out the traces on the ground.

The time is spent in the boring digging of tunnels.

Li Nuo's careful planning before the action worked.

In the process of digging vertically downward, he encountered no resistance.

But when the depth was close to 2000 meters, an unexpected encounter forced him to press the pause button.

"Shushasha..."

"Ka Ka Ka..."

In the dark, closed and narrow space, Li Nuo and the spirit of the stone entered a state of being motionless.

A seemingly absent noise lingered in Li Nuo's ears.

It's a bit like the rustling of leaves blown by the evening wind, and a bit like the sound of fingernails sliding on a blackboard.

The noise reverberated in the cramped underground space, and Li Nuo couldn't tell from which direction the noise came from.

He used the "rock and soil shield" to strengthen the shield's defense with the cipher text of the Pangula family.

He called up the personal panel in his mind and looked at the "status bar".

No negative effects appear there.

"So, it's just noise, not some kind of spell?"

Li Nuo secretly speculated, considering whether to throw a "detection of rock and soil energy" to see what is causing trouble.

Since the spell fluctuation of "Detecting Rock and Soil Energy" itself will trigger the alarm of the magic instrument, Li Nuo has never used this spell along the way.

At this time, the noise in his ears and the darkness in front of his eyes made Li Nuo feel a little nervous.

To be on the safe side, he might have to risk being discovered by a magic instrument and throw out "Detect Rock and Earth Energy".

Just when Li Nuo was hesitating, there was a very weak vibration from the ground under his feet.

"Shushasha... Kaka Kaka..."

The noise was amplified and became much clearer.

Li Nuo looked down and determined the source of the noise, which was coming from directly below.

"It was like someone was doing the same thing as me."

Li Nuo's face became a little strange.

He recognized it, isn't this the sound of tunnel digging...

"Did I meet the underground Mole Man?"

Li Nuo rubbed his chin, and information about this extraordinary creature appeared in his mind.

It is said that about 6 years ago, the barren stone quarry was still a mountainous area full of jungles.

Six years ago, an alien space pollution incident broke out here, and then there were mine veins rich in barren rocks, and the Mole Man who used barren rocks as a ration.

In a sense, human wizards are competing with the Mole Man.

The Mole Man reproduces and strengthens himself by eating waste rocks.

It's easy to understand how to strengthen yourself. The more rocks the Mole Man eats, the more hard blocks on his body that act as external armor, and the more resistant he is to beating.

As for reproduction...

This is very strange.

Wizards Forward research has found that:

In the group of mole people, all the mole people who have strong spellcasting ability and are very resistant to beating are male.

After much research and dissection, the Witchcraft Studies finally concluded:

Mole people are born "female".

The mole man who ate a lot of waste rocks can give birth to a special physiological structure, evolve into a "male", and enjoy the right to find a mate ever since.

Li Nuo is not very interested in the so-called "special physiological structure".

He just wanted to know if the creature that was digging up from under him was the Mole Man.

Li Nuo activated "Life and Death Tracking" and stared down.

It was still pitch black, without any blood-red outlines appearing in the field of vision.

The dark yellow color that symbolizes the corpse, and the blue line that symbolizes the undead, have never been reflected in the magic field of vision.

Li Nuo's heart sank slightly, realizing that he might have encountered a non-living, non-dead extraordinary creature.

It is likely to be magical creations such as magic servants and magic puppets.

If this is the case, it means that in this oppressive underground area, he is not the only wizard who is digging holes.

This wizard is probably hiding in an extremely remote place, controlling his own magic puppets through the magic circle, and digging caves remotely.

After such an analysis, there is a high probability that this person is a member of the quarry, and he should be doing preliminary reconnaissance work for the construction of the mine tunnel.

This is one of the situations that Li Nuo least wants to see.

"This is troublesome. The deconstruction technique cannot be cast through the soil. Before I see the true appearance of the thing below, I can't use the deconstruction technique on it, and I have no way of knowing its origin..."

Li Nuo frowned and thought:

"Maybe, I can create an accident, trigger a landslide, trap that thing in the ground, and then take advantage of its paralysis, manipulate the spirit of the rock to change a path..."

The more Li Nuo thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible, with both concealment and convenience, so that his previous excavation work would not be wasted.

He squatted down, raised his hand and brushed the blood-storage array on the back of his left hand, and took out the Earth-Drilling Tool Spirit from it.

After Noreen's transformation, the drilling ability of the earth-drilling machine spirit is even better, and it can travel underground at a speed of two meters per second.

Li Nuo placed it on the ground, and the drill bit was aimed at the bottom.

He used "mind control" to control the earth-drilling machine spirit to drill into the solid rock.

"Shushasha... Kaka Kaka..."

Perhaps it was the movement of the ground-drilling mechanical spirit, which was detected by the things directly below.

The noise from directly below was obviously much louder, and was coming towards the location of the ground-drilling mechanical spirit.

Li Nuo calmed down and was ready to detonate the self-destruction array inside the earth-penetrating machine spirit at any time, causing a landslide.

"Swiss, swiss, swiss, swiss, swiss, swish, swiss, swiss, swiss, swiss, swiss, swish, swish, swish..."

The noise passed through the sound-absorbing array of the earth-burrowing machine spirit and reached Li Nuo's ears.

The source of the noise is about to meet the earth-burrowing machine spirit.

Although Li Nuo didn't need to breathe, he still held his breath subconsciously.

He stared hard at the magic vision and stared directly in front of the earth-burrowing machine spirit.

"Wow~~"

The drill bit of the Earth-Drilling Mechanical Spirit penetrated a layer of wall and entered a relatively vast underground space, successfully encountering the mysterious creature.

"What the hell... what are these things?! Could these be the underground monsters causing trouble in the quarry, right?"

Li Nuo's brows jumped and his heart screamed strangely.

I saw a dozen strange-looking monsters with strange outlines appearing in the magical field of vision.

They are not flesh and blood, nor are they the creation of metal and rock magic.

A thick, fluorescent black substance similar to petroleum forms their irregular bodies.

From time to time, there will be a few pale human faces protruding from the surface of their bodies.

These people's faces and mouths were rounded, and their expressions were painful, as if they were undergoing tremendous torture.

The noise Li Nuo heard before was caused by a human face opening its mouth.

And those monsters that trap human faces are like the shadows of chrysalis underground.

They were startled by the earth-burrowing mechanical spirit that suddenly appeared in front of them, and their thick black bodies twitched.

One of the monsters spat out a mouthful of black mucus and pounced on the Earth-Drilling Mechanical Spirit.

The perspective of the earth-burrowing machine spirit instantly fell into darkness.

The sound of corrosion came from everywhere on the Earth-Drilling Mechanical Spirit and penetrated into Li Nuo's ears.

A dark, crazy and sneaky will was transmitted from the earth-burrowing machine spirit to Li Nuo through "mind control".

Layers of noise played in Li Nuo's mind like a tweeter.

【warn! 】

[You are suffering from the psychic attack of "Shadow Chrysalis"! 】

[Please cut off your spiritual connection with the earth-burrowing mechanical spirit in time to avoid substantial spiritual damage! 】

Li Nuo has a "psychic shield" with him.

But when faced with warnings from the system, he always seeks stability.

Without saying a word, he terminated the "mind control" and abandoned the earth-burrowing machine spirit.

Of course, before terminating the spell, he did not forget to launch the Deconstruction Technique on the "Shadow Chrysalis".

But before he could check the decomposition results, a black wind mixed with a fishy smell floated out from the narrow hole under his feet.

"Huh~~~"

This wind made Li Nuo's heart tremble.

The shadow cocoons entrenched a hundred meters below seemed to be crawling along the passage drilled by the earth-burrowing machine spirit.

Li Nuo immediately issued an order to the Spirit of Rock:

"Block the passageway that the earth-burrowing machine spirit drilled out, hurry up!" (End of this chapter)
