High Above Chapter 684

  Chapter 684 Element crystallization condenser getda☆ze! (8000)

Steel pterosaurs, sub-dragon monsters distributed in the Absalom Mountains and Baisen Mountains, have extremely strong bodies comparable to high-strength alloys. The wings are essentially a magnetic levitation flying device that can manipulate magnetism and strengthen the body. , in the "Erosion Rainbow Cold Valley" deep in the Absalom Mountains, there is the largest steel pterosaur lair known on the continent of Terra.

  The king of steel pterosaurs 'Apa Osha' settled here.

   The two steel pterosaurs inhabiting the surroundings of the Jiamubu Temple are the direct descendants of the steel pterosaur king. Ian's eyes have fine spiritual light that swirls interlacedly, allowing him to observe their strength from a distance.

   "The dragon group is also here? No, the second level, two males, this is just a hunting brigade, and there is no big monster of the third level... But it shouldn't be like this."

Ian knew the combination of steel pterosaur hunting teams from the king of the mountain—they consisted of five steel pterosaurs, one big dragon of the third energy level, and four dragons of the second energy level. Around the lair, there may be another thirty or forty dragons.

The steel pterosaur group has a total of seven such brigades, each of which is led by a clever and cunning giant monster-level steel pterosaur, coupled with the steel pterosaur king and the heart light body of the dragon group, the entire combat power of a small country is also No more than this.

This is also the reason why Feiyandi and the Empire have never tried to eradicate the dragon nests in the past, because in order to destroy them, the fourth energy level must be dispatched, but the fourth energy level must be dispatched around the borders of the two sides...then It is absolutely impossible to achieve the effect of a surprise attack.

   But this time, Fei Yandi exchanged the support of the dragon group at the cost of helping the steel pterosaur king improve his bloodline.

  A hunting dragon team has come to the center of the Midra Autonomous Region to assist the Jiamu Department in its rule.

"Wait a little longer." Ian waited patiently, just like cockroaches, finding one means that there is a nest behind, and the same is true for dragon groups. Steel pterosaurs are a group of monsters that are used to cooperating. , other dragons must be there too.

   Sure enough, more than ten minutes later, accompanied by repeated dragon roars, Ian saw a rainbow-colored magneto-light bring a long wake in the cloudy sky.

  It came from afar, flew across the river and plain, and landed on Jiamu Mountain.

It was a big dragon of the third energy level, followed by two other Liaolongs of the second level. They communicated with each other in the language of the steel pterosaur, and then the big dragon took off with the two Liaolongs .

  The direction of their flight is the east—that is, the direction where the Xiahui collar is located.

   And the silver chip also helped Ian translate the steel pterosaur language, which is theoretically encrypted higher than the cipher text.

  【Is there anything unusual? 】

  【No... Gulu... Slave villain... Seems dissatisfied, quarreled with the people from Jiamubu】【Need us...to eat those villains? 】

【madness. Those are servants, not slaves, and this is not our lair. The king said, don't cause conflicts... the servants of Jiamubu cannot eat them, and those of other tribes, even if the situation is urgent, don't eat too much, at most ten]

  【I'm going to raid the enemy's alchemy workshop, you stay here, if there are any abnormal intruders, kill them and use them as your own lair. There is a commotion inside, help Kakibe to calm down]

  【We can't kill too many people with our own mouths, we can't let humans think that we are the real enemy... We are outsiders, don't kill too many civilians, give the empire an excuse...】

  【Understand...】【OK...】

  The steel pterosaurs of the third energy level obviously have the intelligence of ordinary people or even beyond ordinary people, while the Liaolong of the second energy level also has some intelligence, but more of them are ferocious instincts.

   "Sure enough, the information sent by Gamma has taken effect, and they are really going to attack Xiahui City."

  Ian didn't feel the slightest fluctuation in his heart, and even wanted to laugh a little: "I hope they can still be as careless as they are now when they encounter the ambush of the prism cannon and Yadbert."

Although Dalong is strong, facing the ambush of Adalbert hiding in the dark, and the siege-level light prism cannon optimized according to his armored 'Cyclops' main cannon, even with the first The three-level heart light shield reduces damage and will definitely be damaged.

  As for Nauman City, there is also a special response team waiting around. They drive the dragon hunting armor, which is the most elite force in the hands of the Marquis of Barton, enough to hunt the big dragon beasts who do not want to leave Xiahui City.

  Ian took out the communication crystal board and sent the message of "the dragon group has set off" to Qing Chao and others at the mouth of Guyanfeng Gorge—he was too far away from Xiahui, and there was no base station, so he could only transfer manually.

【receive】

  After seeing Qing Chao's reply, Ian waited for a while, and got up after the dragons flew away, ready to sneak into Jiamu's department.

  With the Ring of Silence and the water curtain shifting the light and shadow, Ian can almost walk into Jiamube invisibly.

  The two steel pterosaurs looking down at the tribe didn't notice anything. They even wagged their tails lazily, bared their teeth and howled at each other threateningly.

  Of course, in fact, they were chatting, complaining why Dalong didn't take them to attack Xiahui collar.

  Lack of language does cause a lot of misunderstandings.

  Kagibe is actually quite prosperous. Even in the current state of rebellion and war, the streets are quite lively.

  However, Ian noticed that not everyone was wearing Jiamube's costumes with foliage ornaments. There were many 'helpers' from other tribes here.

The clothes on these servants were dirty. They trampled on the mud on the street, carrying boxes of materials transported from the river to the alchemy workshop in the western hilly area, and some of them were sent to the foot of the mountain near the sacrificial hall. At the place, they were not allowed to approach the sacrificial hall, and only the mountain people of Jiamubu could carry these materials up the mountain.

  Ian observed the spirits of two kinds of people: most of the mountain people of Jiamubu are lively and energetic, with smiles on their faces, while the mountain people of other tribes are gray and pale, with nothing but numbness in their expressions.

Ian noticed that most of these tribes came from the Zhenzhou tribe and the Iron dust tribe. They were two mountain tribes whose leaders were killed by him, and their tribes were not far from the Jiamu tribe. Snake Rock Department, located in the canyon further north.

  The sphere of influence of their tribe was obviously eroded by Jiamubu.

   Not only that, but their tribe members were also forced to work for the Jiamu tribe because they lost their backbone.

  Looking at it like this, the salary is probably not very good. It's hard to say if it is, after all, even the steel pterosaurs think they are slaves.

In contrast to the fact that Jiamubu's farmland has not been attacked by Feiyandi's biological warfare, or has special vaccines or pesticides, Feiyandi obviously wants to support a mountain tribe that is most willing to cooperate with them to grow bigger and become a The co-owner of the independent mountain people.

  In a sense, this is also a kind of man-made messenger of the dragon god... The chief of the Jiamu tribe must want to be the only leader of the mountain people.

   And he did it… a little more directly.

  Walking on the street, Ian saw many ragged and hurried people passing by on both sides of him. They were hungry, poor, and oppressed... Even if there were no imperial people, there were still their fellow mountain people doing the same thing.

  At the street, heavily armed Kamube hunters and guards are patrolling. Some of their equipment is supported by Fei Yandi, and some are weapons produced by the local alchemy workshop. They talked and laughed, with relaxed expressions and full of pride.

Some guards saw some servants from other tribes sitting and resting by the roadside, and even stepped forward, yelling words like 'lazy bones' in their mouths, and kicked them over—all the guards burst into laughter, and no one hugged these compatriots There is 'sympathy'.

  —They are not even as united as the White People. I really have to thank Elder Purdue.

  Squinting his eyes, Ian raised his head and looked over the rows of rocky roofs and hills. He saw colorful smoke from the chimneys of the alchemy workshop in the distance, and their smell had spread to every place on this land.

   On the hillside where the temple is located, rows of artillery overlooking everyone condescendingly. The shells they fire can bombard the other side of the river, annihilate all enemies who intend to invade, and suppress the rebels in the department.

   This is an armament that all mountain people could not imagine in the past.

  The people in the Nanling mountains are ushering in a change, but this change is not necessarily a good thing for the vast majority of people.

   Only a small part will always get benefits.

   "Using the mountain people to control the mountain people, and flying flames to grasp the lifeline of Jiamubu."

  Ian suddenly understood at this moment, he finally understood why the old priest, Priest Feotto, who clearly knew that Feiyandi was the real enemy, didn't seem to dislike Feiyandi very much.

  Because Jiamubu was in front, replacing all the instigators, and suffered the greatest hatred of the mountain people.

  However, Kakibe also got benefits.

Their leader has become the third energy level, and the entire tribe is also armed with unprecedented new equipment, and the existence of the alchemy workshop makes them the real "base camp" of the rebellious mountain people today. Apart from Feiyandi's support, if he wanted to get weapons supplies, he might have to rely on Jiamubu's face.

   And the Jiamu Department has very strict protection for its old home. Even if the leader leads the coalition to attack the Frodo Autonomous Region, the old home is still guarded by dragons.

From Feiyandi and Jiamube's point of view, after the steel pterosaur's hunting dragon team attacked the Xiahui Territory, it would completely destroy the empire's ability to advance westward, and the returning third-level dragon would defend Jiamube. It is also enough to deal with any enemy's surprise attack.

   The premise is.

   "The great dragon will return unscathed."

Ian noticed that the eyes of the two steel pterosaurs next to the sacrificial hall have been focusing on the surrounding area of ​​the alchemy workshop. Obviously, they also know that apart from the residence of Chief Kamube and the sacrificial hall where many treasures are stored, what other targets are there? important.

  The steel pterosaur, which uses magnetism as a means of perception, can see his existence beyond Ian's water mist and silent ring.

  It's okay for Ian to hide in the crowd, but after entering their field of vision, these keen dragon beasts will immediately discover their strange second energy level.

For this problem, Ian has about a dozen solutions—from using the secret method of the Dragon Cult to restrain his breath, pretending to be an ordinary person to enter the alchemy workshop area; In the alchemy workshop area, as an elite alchemist, he has too many ways to hide the two dragons.

  But what Ian wants is not just to see what is in Jiamubu's alchemy workshop... The sacrificial hall guarded by the steel pterosaur and the chief's residence of Jiamube are both Ian's goals.

  If he wants to do everything in one pot, he has to find a way to solve this problem.

   "Two male dragons... It's a bit difficult, but it's doable."

   Staring at the two unsuspecting steel pterosaurs in the distance, Ian smiled.

  He had a brilliant idea that wasn't very polite.

  Jiamu Mountain, halfway up the mountain, around the main hall.

  【Gulu? 】

  The steel pterosaur on the left raised its head in a daze. It sensed that there was a faint fluctuation of the source quality of the water system on the edge of the river on the east side of the tribe: 【Enemy? 】

  【River Fish】

  The companion on the right is calmer, it also sensed the fluctuation, turned to look to the east of the tribe: [already swam away]

  【So boring】

  The simple-minded steel pterosaur sighed, while the calm steel pterosaur flicked its tail: [Don't feel bored, do you still remember our mission? Fei Yandi said that it will give the lair more resources... As long as we can also become great dragons, there will be more things we can do]

   Speaking of this, the calm steel pterosaur sighed: [I don't know what we will do after becoming a great dragon]

  【Want to eat...Iron Wool Porcupine】

  The simple-minded steel pterosaur gave the answer without hesitation: [fragrant, soft...iron wool porcupine, delicious]

  【You misunderstood me, I mean, what kind of great dragon will we become after we ascend? Our minds will be wiser, our strength will be stronger, and we will surely find our ultimate purpose in life]

  The soul of the calm steel pterosaur has been condensed very firmly. Its thinking is coherent, and its sentences are not much different from human beings. Moreover, its thinking is quite deep, and it has begun to involve self-cognition and dreams.

  This is exactly the necessary condition to become the third energy level.

【of course】

   But its companion is very persistent: 【In order to eat more iron wool porcupines! 】

   Just as the calm steel pterosaur wanted to sigh.

  Sparse rain fell.

  Nanling is already rainy, and the steel pterosaurs didn't find it strange. Their wings are protected by magnetic fields and have anti-corrosion coatings. They don't care about rain. If there is a thunderstorm, they can even absorb part of it and convert it into their own energy.

  Among the sparse raindrops, a few pieces of strangely colored ice landed around the hall where the steel pterosaurs were located.

  The ice cubes melted, and it began to slowly release a strange, head-turning breath.

  Steel pterosaurs didn't notice this peculiar smell at first. They are very sensitive to toxins, but they are relatively slow to perceive things that are not toxins.

  And Ian induced the rain, and the potions that turned into ice cubes and fell to cover up... weren't poisons at all.

  Ordinary sensational potion.

  As the name suggests, everyone understands it. The effect of this potion is very simple in essence—it is specially used for breeding various ferocious beasts.

Effect…

  Ian cautiously estimated that the three icing potions he put in were sparing, enough to put a thousand Besen bulls in heat.

   "Hoo-hoo!"

  By the river, Ian waited for more than ten minutes, and then saw a satisfactory situation.

  The two steel pterosaurs on Jiamu Mountain visibly stirred up with the naked eye, the one on the left was more restless, while the one on the right could barely keep calm, and even managed to roar, warning their companions to suppress their inner instincts.

  【Don't go crazy—the situation is wrong, calm down, come down, I am a male dragon, and so is you! 】

  【Puff! Whoosh! 】

  If it is a sublimator of the second energy level, a human being who can estrus 365 days a year can certainly suppress the instinct of estrus...but if it is a wild beast, its intelligence and self-control are far inferior to human monsters...

"Roar!!!"

  For the mountain people in the Jiamu Department, a strange scene happened.

Originally like a patron saint, the two 'temple guard dragons' standing next to the sacrificial hall suddenly made a strange commotion, and one dragon took the lead to take off in embarrassment, galloping towards the distant mountains, while still yelling at its companions ——But the other dragon seemed to have completely lost all reason. It began to exert its magnetic force with all its strength, causing colorful rainbow lights to wrap its wings, and the iron objects in the entire Jiamu Department trembled slightly.

  If it is a hunter deep in the Absalom Mountains, after seeing this scene, he will definitely make a sound of emotion.

   "Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, everything is recovering—it's mating season again!"

  Because, this is exactly the vision that the steel pterosaur will show when it's courting a mate!

   "Hey, mindless and unhappy."

  Relying on the super-perception endowed by the silver chip, Ian could even hear the conversation between the two steel pterosaurs as they went away. There were a lot of indecent words in the process. ' and 'Don't come here! ' Such an exchange.

   Regarding the Long Lun tragedy that he created by himself, Ian does not intend to know the aftermath—now that the real guardian of Jiamubu has left, he can go in and see what is in the alchemy workshop.

   Even, if the two dragons had been chasing each other longer, he would have been able to drop by and plunder Jiamubu's treasury!

  Ian's eyes flashed with a cyan halo. He glanced around, and then walked towards the alchemy workshop with the brightest purple light.

  As long as the sublimator wants to, ordinary people can't find their whereabouts at all. Even a psychic like Ian with a vision of vision, before becoming a sublimator, it is difficult to lock a sublimator who is wholeheartedly targeting him.

Ian walked forward along the flow of porters. In front of him was the core alchemy workshop of Jiamubu. A large number of raw materials and packages were sent into it by many porters and convoys. However, Ian did not see many "products" being carried. out.

  The precognitive vision scanned the raw materials, and Ian couldn't help whispering strangely: "Mushroom?"

The name of the mushroom is 'Xiaojing Mushroom'. It is a special product in the Baisen Mountains. It will only grow on the wet cliff walls. These crystallized mushrooms will release a faint shimmer when they spread over the entire cliff wall. , will form a hazy flow of light similar to the aurora clouds around the cliff, so it is named Xiaojing mushroom.

But these transported raw materials are not the same: these Xiaojing mushrooms are bigger, and the spore aggregates under the mushroom umbrella, that is, the glowing 'Xiaojing' are also larger, obviously they are special individuals that have been specially cultivated .

  This individual…

   "It can be used to refine elemental crystals!"

  Ian's heart was slightly shocked. He was always calm and strategizing, unless it was something really outrageous, he was almost never shocked.

  But it just so happens that elemental crystallization, a strategic fuel, is something outrageous enough to shock him.

   "Could it be that the mountain people are trying to create elemental crystals?!" Even with his imagination, he could only think of this possibility.

   This is not impossible.

The reason why the empire has been able to hold back the technological development of the mountain people for so many years is because they are very stuck in the crystallization of elements - any slightly high-tech creation, whether it is armor or professional-grade alchemy equipment, the mountain people can't use it at all !

  If the mountain people want to break through the technological blockade of the empire, the first thing to do is to solve the energy problem first.

   And, it's not just mountain people…

   Ian badly needed it too.

  —Intelligent AI, new planting, fuel for the alchemy workshop in the territory, armor supplies, and all kinds of messy things...

  Ian didn't even have time to finish his thoughts, so he took a deep breath—he calmed down, observed the surroundings with the vision of vision, and after confirming that there was no danger, he began to sneak in.

A light figure avoids the guards of the Jiamu Department who are stationed at the entrances of each street and holds alchemy firearms. From the roof slanting above, following the shadows brought by the drizzle and clouds, it floats down on the second floor of the workshop. Outside the window, it was like a big cat, silent.

This alchemy workshop is quite luxurious, with the obvious architectural style of flying flames. The doors and windows are narrow. Even if an ordinary adult man can open the window, he cannot enter it. But Ian's figure is just right, and he can easily use soil The source quality controls the window to open from the inside and enter it.

   There are also many guards in the alchemy workshop. They are stationed at crossings and corridors, and most of the people who can move around are alchemists and skilled workers.

  They are all from Kamube.

  Obviously, the internal operation of this key alchemy workshop cannot be borrowed from other people's hands, and Jia Mubu is not so generous.

Ian has a foreseeing vision, so he doesn't need to think about where the 'things' are. He goes directly to the center of the workshop that exudes the most intense purple halo, and the 'confusion potions' that can confuse people and reduce attention are found along the way. The mist slowly spread.

  The concentration is very low and will not trigger an alarm. Most people will only feel as if they have been distracted for a moment.

   And at that moment, a white figure flashed past with a moist breath.

  The guards of Kamube were not professional, and soon, Ian, who was in nowhere, came to the center of the alchemy workshop.

Here is a fairly large assembly line processing plant, where colorful chrysanthemum mushrooms are sent into the assembly line in boxes, crushed and screened, and sent to a huge centrifuge for separation treatment—accompanied by the buzzing sound of rapid rotation, The translucent white crystalline mass is then separated from the clam mushroom mixture and then taken out and sent to another, and really important, processing line.

  That is the core of the alchemy workshop - an element crystallization condenser.

  About the height and width of a person, it is composed of many regular hexagons. The near-spherical crystal instrument like a honeycomb is opened, and the white crystal block of the crystal mushroom is fed into it until it is filled and closed.

  The low-pitched equipment buzzed and vibrated, and the strong light that was hard to see directly burst out instantly, melting all the crystal blocks inside.

All of a sudden, a large amount of colored mist erupted, and these mist containing a large amount of complex and impure sources were extracted and sent out of the alchemy workshop, and the surface of the spherical honeycomb instrument, the center of each hexagonal crystal square, had pure The transparent crystals are gradually growing and condensing.

  That is the crystallization of elements.

  Ian stared at this scene intently.

   It has to be said that the efficiency of the element crystallization condenser is very high. Only about five boxes of clam mushroom extracts are needed to extract a group of pure element crystals. This should be Fei Yandi's own technology, not some obsolete old-fashioned production line.

  —How did these mountain people get a whole production line of crystallization of elements? !

   Putting this on the earth, it is more or less the federal government helping a local private company build a small nuclear fusion power plant, or sending a small quantum computer—whatever you think, how outrageous!

  Ian doesn't understand this at all, it's too illogical, there must be a huge conspiracy behind it, and Jia Mubu has the handle of the flying flames, so he can reach such an unfair deal.

   But now is not the time to think about the conspiracy behind it.

  —Because the things in front of me are so valuable.

   "Plans change!"

   Letting out a breath, Ian's eyes lit up with cyan psychic radiance. He lifted the ring of silence and the phantom of water mist, exposing his body to the craftsmen and guards in the alchemy workshop.

These people didn't even realize that a stranger appeared in the production room at the first time, but then, the icy breath spread, and the vortex formed by two cold winds surged between Ian's hands from left to right, and their The gaze had to be drawn.

  A pure white, extremely cold storm erupted from the vortex, like a tide, sweeping across the entire workshop, freezing their minds and bodies.

   And the blue eyes looming in the frost storm were the last sight they could see.

  Everything is plunged into icy darkness.

With the whistling of the cold wind, the entire alchemy workshop was slightly shaken, the cold white air was covered with a hazy layer of frost mist inside the sealed workshop, and ice edges grew on the inside of the windows—then, the guard on duty at the door As if sensing something, they turned their heads in horror, and then saw the surging cold air smashing through the door, blowing blood-red ice crystals and flesh fragments into the sky together with them.

After a few seconds, the dead guard of Kakibe fell to the ground like an ice sculpture and shattered to the ground, but the white cold air had already rushed across the street. Among the flying clouds, the frozen alchemy workshop was left behind.

The cold air spread and the frost condensed. Ian didn't kill those 'innocent' porters and workers, but he couldn't allow those guards of Kagakibe to have the power to resist. Shot out of the icy wind that entered the clouds.

  They turned into white lines hanging from the sky, falling one after another, like a sharp cold rain, piercing the foreheads and eyes of the guards precisely.

   Brings swift and cold death.

  The entire west side of Jiamube became a frost **** in an instant, and the screams and wailing resounded throughout the alchemy workshop area, making the winter wind even colder.

   But the strange thing is that almost all the porters and some of the more friendly guards were not injured even a little bit. Facing the rain of blades, they screamed, feeling that death was approaching.

   But death never came, it just surrounded them and then quietly went away.

  It will only come on the head of the person the dragon **** envoy wants to punish.

  If the dragon of the third energy level is still in Jiamubu, it must be able to see that the hard power of the controller of this frost storm may be slightly inferior to itself.

  However, his ability to control the source quality, his own ability, and the degree of mastery of the sublimated organs in his body are far better than this monster.

  That is by no means a skill that can be overcome with the instinct of the flesh and blood, but the crystallization of absolute calm and absolute rationality.

   Frost straight into the clouds.

   Immediately, the wind and rain became stronger.

  The astronomical phenomena around Kagibe changed accordingly.

The proudest alchemist also has to admit that there will always be some people who will go beyond the limitations of the times. They will never be restricted by blood, true form, or the way of sublimation, and will get stuck in the pace of progress... On the contrary , but they are driving the times and pushing the way of sublimation forward.

  Even if such a star that guides the direction of the times has just shown its light, they are still so determined.

  And Ian doesn't care about these possible evaluations.

   All of this is a matter of course for him.

  Using the cold wind to support the most critical 'condenser' in the entire element crystallization production line, Ian has already used a silver chip to reproduce its entire structure.

But such high-precision alchemy creations cannot be reproduced by Xiahui Ling in a short period of time, so he froze the entire alchemy workshop without hesitation. The priceless and precious creation temporarily left Kakibe.

  【Qingchao, give up the original plan, and come to the surrounding area of ​​Jiamube as soon as possible】

  Ian directly contacted the reserve team: [There is an important alchemy creation that needs to be escorted back to Xiahui Ling—your only task is to protect it back safely! 】

  【Understood, boss! 】Qing Chao replied bluntly, and he asked curiously: 【How important is it? 】

  【It may be more expensive than our entire alchemy workshop combined】

  Qing Chao was silent for a while, and then let out a gloating laugh:【Then let's evacuate together? Such a good thing, I am afraid that I will feel sorry for those rebellious mountain people! 】

【Do not】

  Ian refused. He looked down from a high altitude and looked at the Jiamubu Sacrifice Hall where the steel pterosaur was stationed before.

   It was very far away before, but now it can be vaguely seen.

   There, there are a lot of purple... even the 'cyan' mist representing the third energy level is enveloping.

  【Since you do something bad, you must do it absolutely】

  Looking at the fog, Ian showed a refreshing smile:【I'll let them know】

  【What is 'surprise'! 】

   Recently is a critical period, so there is nothing to say in this chapter! But if you want to post it, you can post it!

   During this period of time, there is no chapter to say, the update should have been reduced, but I actually updated 8000. I feel that there is no difference from the three-shift period of the previous day. The difference between the small chapter and the big chapter is really impressive.

  (end of this chapter)
