Chapter 337 The glowing moon is forever dark
Duke answered the questions Franny Merganser encountered one by one.
As a 5th-level Elf Qi Master, I have truly experienced various druids, shamans, and wilderness gods.
On the road of Qi of all things, no one knows better than him.
But he still adheres to his consistent style, which is to make a start and leave the rest to professionals. After the release of the Qi Refining Ring, apart from retaining a research team in the Mage Tower, he ignored the rest of the research and promotion work.
Anyway, with Alston Lanhe and Frannie Sanduck, the two stars and prophets, in charge, the subsequent development work will definitely go smoothly and there is no need for him to worry too much.
Play the role of a mentor and solve the problems the two of them encounter, that's all.
In a blink of an eye.
At the end of the year, Duke, who had not thought about what he was going to study next, was basically sorting out his existing knowledge of spiritual arcana.
Practice silently.
His research is too complex and too much, and the spiritual feedback is rich, but his understanding of the spiritual arcana needs to be slowly improved, and he cannot gain weight in one bite.
In addition, his foundation has not been solidified.
In the Linghai Linghe Core, there is one empty slot in the third ring orbit, and there are three empty slots in the fourth ring orbit, which he needs to think about how to use.
"There are already two sets of instant forbidden spells, the Grasp of Immortality and the Sword of Glory... Although the linked arcane system of the Sword of Glory has not yet been established, the linked arcane wonders of levels 1 to 4 have been established. , only the fifth ring of radiance envelope and the sixth ring of holy light field are left."
The fifth and sixth ring orbits have not been opened yet, and there is no Sunken Demon coming to send nightmare clones, so it is not possible to build arcane wonders for the time being.
“Even if I am promoted to level 6 Sky Arcana Mage, I can only build two sets of instantaneous forbidden spells…”
Limited by the slots on the ring track, basically a 6-ring sky arcane mage can only build two complete wonder linkage systems, thus triggering forbidden spells.
Duke has already set up a system, but there are still some vacant slots left, and they can only find and fill the gaps.
“Are the empty slots on the ring track used for casting arcane weapons or building arcane wonders?” He sat in the tree house, making Kung Fu tea and meditating.
Honestly.
He does not want to build an arcane wonder. Instant arcane spells are of course very effective: "But I have a 5-level arcane hand. Under the forbidden spell, I can release any arcane spell, but the release time cannot be compared to the instantaneous spell." It’s just arcane magic.”
So, he quickly dismissed the idea of building arcane wonders.
"I should even clear away all the irrelevant arcane wonders and arcane weapons on the ring orbit... On the first ring orbit, I can clean up the two arcane wonders of illusion and healing; on the second ring orbit, I can sublimate the arcane weapons. Eye, free up a slot."
In this way, at least one slot will be available on several ring orbits.
“Then I can build another forbidden spell system... Although there are no extra slots, building auxiliary wonders and strengthening the power of the forbidden spells, but being able to release the forbidden spells is enough!”
Forbidden spells require a fixed linkage of wonders to form a system. At the same time, they also need auxiliary wonders to enhance the power of the forbidden spells.
For example, the 7-level forbidden spell - Grasp of the Immortal is composed of 1-level Arcane Shield, 2-level Elemental Shield, 3-level Elemental Armor, 4-level Earth Armor, 5-level Brilliant Gem and 6-level Meteoric Grasp.
At the same time, if there are 2-level Stoneskin and 3-level Thunder Grip, and the auxiliary wonder linkage, the power can be increased.
The same is true for the 7-ring forbidden art - Sword of Glory, which is composed of 1-ring Candlelight, 2-ring Sword of Light, 3-ring Great Sword of Light, 4-ring Pillar of Light, 5-ring Glory Envelope and 6-ring Holy Light Domain. .
At the same time, if there are 2 rings of Warm Sun Technique and 3 rings of Continuous Light, and auxiliary wonder linkage, the power can be increased.
In this way, two complete forbidden spell systems require four 2-level arcane wonders.
There are only five slots on Duke's second-level orbit, so it can only accommodate one more second-level arcane wonder.
If a third set of forbidden arts system is built, there will be no auxiliary wonders to link with, and the power of the forbidden arts will be greatly reduced.
"Which forbidden technique to choose? If you think about it carefully, you still have to choose the auxiliary forbidden technique, otherwise there will be no auxiliary miracles. After the power of the offensive and defensive forbidden techniques is discounted, the effect is really average... Well, it is better to choose the 7-ring forbidden technique - long Thousands of miles of wind!”
7th Ring Forbidden Technique - Changfeng Wanli, as the name suggests, it uses the power of wind to move thousands of miles in an instant.
Not only can the caster's own speed travel thousands of miles in an instant, but it can also carry more people or objects and fly together.
It can even hijack a battleship and move it dozens of kilometers away in an instant.
"It's really good. I have the Grasp of Immortality for defense, and the Sand Eagle Pistol and Sword of Glory for offense. Now I'm missing someone to escape!" Duke took a sip of the newly brewed tea. The tea was still the same tea, but brewed with Kung Fu tea. In the process, the level of force has skyrocketed.
The entrance feels more refreshing.
But soon, Duke hesitated again: "Chatting with the stars, I already know that the stars can also master magical powers that are comparable to forbidden arts... There is a magical power called the Möbius Ring, which can achieve the effect of being as far away as the world! "
At the beginning, he was aboard the battleship Bibo and was attacked by the fallen demon Miguel.
After receiving the news, Celsus cast the Ring of Möbius and rushed on. Unfortunately, the arcane trajectory was disturbed, resulting in the loss of precise coordinates, and he was unable to make it in time.
If the arcane trajectory is not disturbed, it can be said that with the help of the Möbius Ring, Selsus can arrive in a minute or two.
“When I advance to the stars and master the Möbius Ring, won’t this forbidden technique be wasted if it travels thousands of miles?”
Having said that, after repeated consideration, Duke decided to practice Changfengwanli.
First of all, the time of promotion to the stars is not yet known, so it is important to keep it secret with the help of Changfeng Wanli; secondly, when that time comes, we can completely overthrow these arcane wonders and rebuild a new system.
“It’s just a waste of time. Xiaoyi can help me build the arcane wonder. It’s easy.” Duke did not hesitate too much and quickly made up his mind.
7th Ring Forbidden Technique - Changfeng Wanli, which is formed by the linkage of 1st Ring Wind Technique, 2nd Ring Tearing Gale, 3rd Ring Wind Rush, 4th Ring Tornado Blade, 5th Ring Storm Arrival and 6th Ring Wind Immersion. It can also be composed of 2-ring small tornado, 3-ring large tornado, auxiliary wonder linkage.
“Master, I am here.”
"Clear the illusion and arcane wonders on the first ring track." Duke chose to retain the healing spell among the illusion and healing spells.
In case of injury, instant healing is still crucial.
“Good master, have begun to dismantle the arcane wonders of the illusion.”
“After dismantling it, immediately build a 1-ring Wind Movement Arcane Wonder.”
"clear."
"In addition, the Arcane Eye on the second ring orbit should be sublimated. After the slot is vacated, build a 2-ring tearing gale arcane wonder... When the Arcane Eye reaches the third ring, the third ring orbit will be full again. , then sublimate the Arcane Hand upwards, free up a slot, and build a 3-ring Arcane Wonder of the Wind Rush."
“Okay, we’re building the memo.”
“In addition, on the fourth ring orbit, immediately build 4 rings of tornado blade arcane wonders.”
"Yes, Master." Xiaoyi quickly wrote down Duke's plans on the memo list, "At this point, the four slots of the first orbit of the master's spiritual core are completed, and the five slots of the second orbit are completed. , the six slots of the third ring orbit are complete, and six of the seven slots of the fourth ring orbit are used.”
“Well, leave a slot for me to think about, and then I can cast another arcane weapon.”
That is, on Duke's ring orbit, the space is large enough, and the Sand Eagle pistol provides combat power, so there is no need to consider offensive arcana.
Only in this way can we calmly construct three sets of forbidden arts systems.
Some ordinary arcane mages must not only build a forbidden spell system, but also have appropriate arcane spell defense and attack, and also have to leave space for arcane weapons. The slots are extremely tight. Souchou, after being promoted to level 6 Sky Arcana Mage, he was able to build a system of forbidden arts and smiled.
“Sir, it’s International Light, Princess Tiffany is calling.” Assistant Ibuprofen knocked on the door and came in.
"Okay, I understand." Duke put down his tea cup, got up and went to the mage tower to connect to the optical video chat and chat with his wife, Princess Tiffany.
“Dear, when are you going to come over after the New Year?” Princess Tiffany finally asked with expectation.
Looking at the beautiful Princess Tiffany in the video, Duke thought for a moment and said, "Number ten."
Going to the Snow Shirt Palace, you have to wait ten days to come back. Duke must first appease the Holy City of Offa and Cuihai City.
“It’s the 10th, so late...” Princess Tiffany was a little sad.
However, he quickly put away his sad look and asked: "Is your practice going well? When will you be promoted to Ocean Arcana Mage?"
“If it’s slow, it’ll be within nine years, if it’s fast, it’ll be three to five years.”
“It will take several years. It feels so slow.”
"Do you know what you are talking about, Tiffany? No one in the world practices faster than me. It can even be said that I have raised my practice record to a level that makes everyone despair." Duke said with a smile. Of course he knew Tiffany The princess's thoughts.
I just want Duke to be promoted to Ocean Arcana Mage quickly, and then cast an Ocean Replica Ring, so that the Ocean Clone can be activated frequently and stay with her.
Princess Tiffany sighed: "It's a pity that I have the status of a princess and can't just go to the Seven Towers Federation."
“It doesn’t matter, if our love lasts forever, how can we stay together day and night...Wait for me, I will soon leave for the Snow Shirt Palace.”
Kiss me in the light chat. It took me a while before I hung up the video.
Duke glanced at the time on the Dou Qi holographic screen. This optical video call lasted for thirty minutes. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Fortunately, I invented the Ring of Light. Otherwise, lovers don't know how much lovesickness they would have to bear." suffering."
Looking out the window, you can see the clouds on the horizon through the branches and leaves of the ancestor of the oak tree.
Cuihai City has not yet seen its first winter snow this year, but the temperature has dropped below zero, and a layer of fog has condensed on the four corners of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the constant-temperature office.
Get up and leave the office. The temperature in the corridor is still constant.
“Sir, are you going out?” The ibuprofen outside stood up and asked.
"Wander around as you like, you are busy with your business." Duke waved his hand and refused to follow Ibuprofen, "Oh, by the way, don't forget to pay attention to the location of the battleship Three Rings. When Winona arrives, let me know. I'll have a chat with her."
This year Winona Yingzhu returned to the Holy City of Offa for the New Year, mainly to prepare for the wedding and become Duke's third wife.
After Duke successively married Princess Tiffany and Kelia Furious, everyone understood his idea and followed the example of Speaker Andre Evening Primrose and enjoyed the blessings of everyone - for a five-ring prophet seven Sage, no one dares to ask for more.
Then, Duke took the spiritual ladder down to the experimental floor alone.
The researchers were not surprised that he came to inspect. After greeting him respectfully, they went about their own experiments.
Today's Duke Sage Mage Tower has an increasingly large experimental team.
Arcanist mages rushing from all over the country have already overcrowded the mage tower. For this reason, Duke had to divert some of his people to the surrounding mage towers. Many mage towers throughout the Black Dragon River land have taken on a large number of projects from here.
The holy land has become a climate.
“Your Excellency.” Scholar Lidman bowed and saluted.
Liedemann replied: "Somewhat unwillingly."
He has been leading the lightsaber technology team before, and his team was the first to release 2-ring lightsaber technology, 3-ring lightsaber technology, and 4-ring lightsaber technology. However, the technical team was stuck on the 5-ring lightsaber technology. In the end, a mage tower in the Holy City of Arcane took the lead in releasing the 5-ring lightsaber technology.
Duke immediately informed Lidman to transform the lightsaber technology team and stop focusing on the 5-ring lightsaber technology.
"There's no need to be dissatisfied. You're just a third-level arcane mage. It's very rare to be the first to develop a fourth-level lightsaber technology. It's even more difficult to break through a fifth-level lightsaber technology." Duke reassured, "I think Your first priority now is to expand your understanding of spiritual arcana and attack the 4th level earth arcana mage as soon as possible."
“I have only been promoted to the 3rd ring for a few years...it is too early to say I will hit the 4th ring.”
“You can’t feel the new world of spiritual arcana until you reach level 4, so now, you need to calm down and delve into some projects that suit you.”
“What you are trying to teach me is that I understand that I will no longer be obsessed with the 5-ring lightsaber technology.” Scholar Lidman nodded.
"Just understand, lightsaber technology is a technology with broad prospects. Don't just focus on higher levels, but also develop horizontally appropriately and develop more new technologies for lightsaber technology." Duke suggested, "Recently, the Holy City of Aufa has released optical glue technology. Have you seen it?"
“I saw it, it’s very creative and has room for development.” Lidman replied.
"The Light of the Erudite Tower is basically scheduled for next year." Duke also said with emotion. He started the lightsaber technology, and subsequent expansion is someone else's business. I didn't expect a surprise. "There are so many things that can be expanded with light glue technology. "
Light gel technology, hence the name Civic, is a gel formed using lightsaber technology.
This gel can effectively repair the ring structure and restore the damaged ring structure to operation.
It can repair spirit cards, assist puppet cores, activate formations, and even use gel to release arcane spells when the spiritual energy is exhausted... Although the current technology is still very rough, its application prospects are absolutely broad.
Hearing this, Lidman said with some shame: "I'm sorry, sir, but I ignored these directions of lightsaber technology."
"I don't blame you. One flower blooming alone is not spring. When a hundred flowers bloom, spring fills the garden. If only Duke's Sage and Mage Tower can continuously innovate and release various new technologies, it will go against my original intention." Duke looked forward to the future. , "Blooming everywhere and competing with each other is the true prosperity of spiritual arcana."
In front of Lidman scholars, let’s briefly reveal the pattern.
Duke soon visited other laboratories. From the Ring of Branding to the Ring of Refining Qi, there were research teams in Duke's Sage Mage Tower.
Although he himself no longer conducts in-depth research, he has not given up supporting the team. Occasionally, he will give some of his inspirations to the research team for implementation.
With the help of the five rings and the Duke Sage Mage Tower, he is creating the era of Dongwei spirituality bit by bit.
“I’ve almost finished researching everything that needs to be studied. Next, I should expand the era of cave spirituality and let the spiritual arcana enter the real ‘dongwei’ stage!”
What is Dongwei?
In Duke's understanding, it is a chip, it is digital...
“So, it’s time to invent the computer and allow humans in the wild continent to enter super computing and the Internet of Everything!”
If there is no controllable electricity, then use controllable light.
“Photon computer, this is the first step.” Duke asked Xiaoyi to write down the development of photon computer on his schedule.
However, he did not start research immediately.
Xiaoyi’s current workload is too big. Without Xiaoyi’s assistance, it would be difficult to develop a photonic computer.
“It’s the New Year’s Day soon, so let me be cool first and then talk about it.”
…
However, as Duke was preparing to spend the New Year in style, an accident suddenly happened.
The true head of the Seven Towers Federation, Speaker of the Senate Andrei Evening Primrose's condition suddenly deteriorated, which instantly touched the hearts of all the stars.
Duke, as a star that is not among the stars, is also affected.
"How is it, how is the Speaker?" Duke's earth clone has arrived at the Evening Primrose Crystal Palace.
Meet Selsus who had just walked out of the training room.
Sersus shook his head, motioned Duke to find a quiet corner, and then said: "Psychic energy has been replaced by black smoke, and we are only one step away from the Sinking Demon."
"The Sinking Demon?" Duke was surprised, "Is the Speaker really going to perish?"
"No." Selsus said decisively, with admiration in his eyes, "Master Andre is saying his final farewell to his family. When the farewell is over, our eight Huiyue will incinerate his body. Refining it to completely isolate it from spiritual erosion."
“Does it still need to be incinerated and refined?”
"His body has been contaminated by spirituality. Once it is cut off from vitality, it will immediately degenerate into a walking corpse and become a slave of spirituality... The reason why your Excellency has not fallen yet is because of a will that has sustained it so far. When a person dies, his will will be extinguished. …”
“Alas.” Duke sighed.
So he waited outside the training room with other stars, waiting for Andre Evening Primrose to close his eyes, and then prepared for his death.
However, what Duke didn't expect was that he thought he was just here for a routine visit, but was actually received by Andre Evening Primrose before his death.
“Master Duke, our ancestor hopes to meet you and have a few words with you.” Andre Evening Primrose’s descendant trotted up to Duke and said with sobs.
Duke glanced at Selsus and the others, then nodded: "Okay, lead the way."
Following the other party, he quickly entered the training room. The entire training room was arranged in a formation, and the arcane runes shone brightly. Apparently, this method was used to suppress the spiritual contamination of Andre Evening Primrose's body. Prevent corruption.
Lambert Raven is also in the training room. As a prophet in the realm of life, he is breathing another breath for Andre Evening Primrose.
Seeing Duke, Lambert Raven immediately said: "Everyone else, get out."
"Yes, you two adults." Andrei Evening Primrose's concubines and juniors immediately left the training room crying.
Duke walked to the bed and looked down at the withered old man lying on the bed.
In the past, when I saw Andre Evening Primrose, I could still feel the profound aura of the abyss, but now I can't feel it at all.
And you can see traces of black air rising from Andre Evening Primrose's dry body.
“Heh…Duke is here.” Andre Evening Primrose opened his eyes. Although his voice was weak, his eyes were still bright.
Duke leaned down and said, "Here I am, Lord Speaker."
"good."
Sitting gently on the edge of the bed, holding Andre Evening Primrose's hand that he struggled to raise, Duke listened carefully to the other person's last words.
“I’ll make a long story short…9th Ring Sun…I’ve seen it before…” Andrei Evening Primrose didn’t waste any nonsense and directly talked about the impact on 9th Ring Sun.
Duke listened carefully.
Lambert Raven, who was breathing another breath for Andre Evening Primrose beside him, also pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"The Chapter of Crowning the Sun is not difficult to walk... It's a pity that I don't have enough successors... There is a door above the strong wind, and there is a door at the bottom of the deep sea... You can complete the Chapter of the Crowned Sun by pushing the door open... This world is incomplete... That door cannot be pushed Open... you can make up the road to the sea of qi and sea of blood... or you can make up the whole world..."
Andre Evening Primrose spoke intermittently.
Duke gradually frowned. He didn't quite understand these words, but he seemed to be able to find some problems from these words combined with his own knowledge.
The Eye of the Arcana has been condensed by him early, suspended on his shoulder, and he carefully recorded the scene.
Andre Evening Primrose also continued: "The legend of the island where knights come from is true... The Wilderness Continent is the source of knights... You will definitely understand..."
Said.
Andre Evening Primrose suddenly exclaimed: "Yeah."
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed tremblingly in the direction of the ceiling, his eyes began to become cloudy and dull: "The door to the bottom of the sea has opened... The devil of sinking is coming... I, I will never sink... Du, Duke, go up, through the strong wind, open the door…"
The last sound was stuck in his throat, and the breath of life of Andre Evening Primrose had dissipated.
The wisps of black smoke began to grow larger.
Lambert Raven put away his eavesdropping ears and said quickly: "The Speaker has gone, Duke, you leave first!"
“Okay.” Although he was full of doubts, Duke quickly left the training room.
Sersus and other 8-ring glowing moon arcane instructors filed into the training room and began to preside over the subsequent incineration and refining process.
Duke returned to wait outside. André Evening Primrose's wives, concubines, and descendants had already begun to mourn, and the stars were silent in response.
In the history of the Wilderness Continent, the greatest 8th level Arcane Mage of the Bright Moon, and the only arcane mage who had hit the 9th level Sunlight realm, passed away suddenly.
There were staff stationed here at the United Supreme Tower. After consulting Siegel, the executive director of the United Tower and one of the stars, they quietly left the Evening Primrose Crystal Palace and sent the news of Andre Evening Primrose's death back to the United Supreme Tower. tower.
On the big screen at the waist of the Arcane Supreme Tower.
The four large Chinese characters in black and white were quickly played - the bright moon will always be dark.
Following this, the waist-length large screens of the other six supreme towers, as well as the large screens of all the buildings in the Holy City of Aufa, all turned into black and white, and only the four characters "Glory Moon Eternal Darkness" were played.
The programs of the Seven Towers Optical Vision Station also switched from color to black and white, and left the four characters "The Moon Will Always Darken" to be spread to thousands of households.
Following this, the optical observatories in major fields and local optical observatories all turned into four big characters in black and white: "The Moon Will Always Be Dark".
In an instant.
The entire Seven Towers Federation lost color.
8The news of the sudden death of Andre Primrose, the Arcane Master of the Ring of Radiance and Speaker of the Senate, drowned out all the noise.
In the field of spiritual arcana, the arcane mage who has reached the highest and farthest level has completed his mission in this life and returned to the sea of true spirituality.
"Director Siegel, it's time for my clone." Duke said hello to Director Siegel, who was temporarily in charge of the affairs of the stars, and the earth clone shattered into dots of fluorescent light.
Consciousness returns to the real body and sits up from the sofa chair in the office.
Looking out the window, the light show that was originally creating an atmosphere for the New Year has disappeared, replaced by black and white. The busy traffic on the street also stopped completely. No matter the dignitaries or the common people, they all stood in silence.
Even the sky seems to be in mourning, as the belated first winter snow finally begins to fall.
"The moon will always be dark..." Duke felt inexplicable. He was not familiar with Andre Evening Primrose, and had only met him a few times.
But at the moment, my heart is heavy, as if I have countless things to say, but I can't say a word.
