Dawn of the Grey Tower

Although it has been guessed that it can be used as a temporary camp for jewelers, the buildings it arranges are probably different from buildings in the usual sense. But actually seeing a huge crystal cluster growing out of the ground was somewhat of a shock.

The minerals in front of me are obviously not a product of nature, not to mention whether there will be house-sized crystal clusters in nature, these prismatic crystals themselves will not appear naked on the ground, and they will not touch each other inwards to form a tent-like building structure.

But what is amazing is not only the size of the crystal. In the white snow, there is no snow on these crystals that are shining with off-white light. Their transparency seems to contain some kind of energy, radiating outward in an invisible way, rejecting Snowflakes close up.

The evidence is that all the snowflakes that should have fallen on the crystal tent subtly drifted around at a certain height, and finally fell elsewhere without exception.

】

The separated snow accumulation led to the second result, that is, the snow accumulation along the circle around the crystal cluster became extraordinarily thick, which was particularly eye-catching on the wilderness where the snow line was quite stable, like a man-made snow wall, blocking With the entry of outsiders.

Of course, in the eyes of mages, the physical barrier of the snow wall is not to be feared, but the invisible realm it shows really makes people uncertain. This made Curse Crow not choose to drive the sled recklessly into the snow wall, but turned the direction of the sled after greeting the cheese, and began to circle outside the snow wall.

Crystals, another highly valued category of gemstones that are deeply associated with magic. Compared with many other gemstones, crystal is an inexpensive gemstone, and even its status as a gemstone is sometimes debatable. Generally speaking, the more transparent the interior and the larger the volume of the crystal, the rarer it is, and the higher the price.

Among spellcasters, especially fortunetellers, the purity of the crystal directly affects the accuracy of the results it brings, while its size means how it can amplify the user's spells. This is directly reflected in one of the most familiar and widely used crystal objects, the crystal ball.

In this day and age, the easiest way to tell if a fortune-teller is trustworthy is to look at the instrument of his or her livelihood, the crystal ball. Ordinary fortune tellers' crystal **** often have thick variegated colors, and the interior is also opaque. Only fortune tellers with considerable prestige and status can use high-quality, pure and tidy crystal balls.

And different from the crystal cutting technology after industrialization, fortune tellers in this era often cannot find craftsmen who can cut crystal **** for them, or in other words, gemsmiths in this era are only vassals of a very small number of nobles.

This forced them to do it themselves, starting from the selection of materials to make their own crystal balls. In the concept of magic, this process just conforms to the spirit of harmony, and people and crystals resonate at the level of magic power. To a certain extent, it endows the production process with rationality and necessity.

In this context, there is another rumor among those who use crystal **** as tools for spellcasting and divination. That is, in addition to re-selecting materials to make crystal balls, there are some people who really have magical powers, rather than those who have mysticism, and can influence their own crystal **** in the process of proficient in their own divination and spellcasting skills.

That is to say, he can make the crystal ball full of impurities gradually become pure until it is perfect. And this kind of view also makes the alchemist, who is half of the fortune teller, feel ridiculous, because the method of purifying the crystal is much simpler and clearer for them.

So what do crystals look like in the eyes of a pure caster? The answer may be somewhere in between. On the one hand, crystal is indeed unique as a material. On the other hand, the internal structure of crystal is not so mysterious to mages. very difficult.

This may also explain why the crystal clusters that make up the tent in front of him all have a high degree of uniform purity, they are by no means natural, they have been changed to this appearance entirely for the purpose of the gray-robed mage. The purpose of this change is definitely not as simple as avoiding snow accumulation.

"You try it first, we don't have too long, try to defeat it as quickly as possible."

The voice of the Cursed Crow sounded from the void. Because of the curse, neither the two of them nor the sled they were riding in would be illuminated by light, which made it quite troublesome to determine each other's exact location.

Because of this, Curse Crow, who is the driver of the sled, is also inseparable from participating in the spell estimation of the crystal tent, and can only hand it over to the cheese. As for the request as soon as possible, this is after all another gray robe's outpost, and every time there is a delay, the other party may brew new spells to stop them. Bing is expensive and fast, which applies whether it is hand-to-hand combat or magic duel.

"give it to me."

Although in his heart he didn't want to go to war with his fellow disciples, but if it was just to destroy the defensive magic, it would probably be an extreme exchange of ideas. Whether it is cheese or other gray robes, there are few opportunities to seriously discuss with colleagues, so it is not so strange to have a certain degree of enthusiasm for this.

The Magic Vision, as usual, revealed many clues that were invisible to the naked eye, and it pointed out that those crystals did indeed create a force field that pushed the snowflakes away and was noticeably thicker on the horizontal plane ~www.readwn.com~ which meant that if it wasn't Jia thought about rushing through the snow wall, and being bounced was probably the only ending they would get.

To break through this kind of fortification with no dead ends, a single-point breakthrough is always the best option. As an attacker, you only need to invest resources that are slightly higher than the average investment of the opponent at a very limited angle, and you have a chance to destroy the entire fortification in one fell swoop.

Right now, there are ready-made spell-casting materials available in front of the cheese, yes, it is the added snow wall. In the vision of magic power, the snow wall itself does not have magic, but is attached to an invisible stand. This can just become a medium of magic, from the first line of defense of the crystal tent to the opponent's ammunition depot.

Cheese didn't take the risk to get the alchemy dice, but took out a small cloth bag from his arms based on his memory, and threw the contents in the wind to the snow wall not far away.

"Since it is a crystal, filth should be more useful than anything else. To break the purity is to give it an overly complicated meaning, so that everything born from it will become meaningless."

On the snow wall that the sled passed by, the black like rust marks, with the terrifying veins like blood vessels, quickly spread with the whisper of cheese.
