Chapter 46 Redstone Fortress (7)
It has been five days since Chen Kai and his friends escaped from Andosen. The two days ago, they were struggling towards the Redstone Fortress. On the way, they almost bumped into the undead wandering outside the Redstone Fortress several times. [..cm Me] As for the days after arriving at the fortress, everyone except Chen Kai was looking for tasks that could be done or inquire about information in various areas of the fortress.
When the poor Chen Kai was finally lifted the wanted order and could take a walk around, the news of Andosen's fall had been transmitted from the Redstone Fortress to Montoyaras, the capital of the Rohan Empire. However, for the Emperor of the Rohan Empire, Andosen's affairs were definitely a bad debt, because although Lord Andosen was introduced by the noble Senate, he appointed him in the end, and it was also recognized by the noble mages. Whether it was the Emperor of the Rohan Empire who was unknown to know the people, the recommendation of the noble Senate was wrong, or the collusion between the noble mage group and the Lord Andosen, etc., all the trivial disputes made the poor Emperor very worried.
Of course, there is no doubt that the former Lord Andosen, former Earl of Bill Poly Andosen, and the current traitor of the Rohan Empire, his original family was finished. The poor patriarch of the old Poly family looked no better than bitter gourd when he saw a lot of Empire Knights rushing into the manor. The ending of the Poly family was absolutely unquestionable. Although they made a comeback because Bill Poly was valued and gained a foothold in Andosen, they were also in disaster. No matter which country, the treason was treason.
The attacks of the people were severe, and Bill Poly not only treasoned, he also joined the evil forces. Therefore, in addition to being attacked by the empire, the Poly family was also oppressed by the forces of the temple. The prosperity of someone and the decline of him was probably a true portrayal of the Poly family. When the people of the Poly family sent Bill Poly to Andosen to die, they probably wouldn't have thought that they would have the opportunity to prosper because of Bill, and they would not have thought that they would have completely died because of him.
Chen Kai was not very concerned about what happened in the Rohan Empire, because even if Chen Kai wanted to care, he could only care through the player's information collection method. Most players had no way to get in touch with the power struggles of the upper nobles of the Great Empire in the game. The demise of the Poly family would at most add some topics of conversation or plot tasks in the game to players, and of course, it might also add some territory to some players.
After several days of repair, Chen Kai's set of double-headed lion armor finally returned to its complete state, but if he wanted to completely repair it, it would take at least one day. However, before that, he had to collect some special metals and large pieces of spell crystals. Chen Kai could not understand that the bronze box repair equipment was so expensive. Of course, Chen Kai originally knew that the bronze box repair equipment must consume energy. After all, it is impossible for something to be produced out of nothing in the world, and even gods must act according to the rules of the game. The most important part of the bronze box is the magic array that decomposes and repairs equipment. Since the entire magic array is almost arranged according to the needs of the double-headed lion armor, it cannot be used to repair other things at all. The only benefit is that the cost of making a magic array for fixed repair of a certain piece of equipment is much lower. At the same time, it is more convenient to maintain.
When repairing equipment, the magic array will decompose the metal into the finest metal ions and then combine them on the armor in a fixed arrangement, which requires a lot of energy to be consumed. The source of this energy is spell crystals, and there are also large pieces of spell crystals, not blocks. Ordinary spell crystals, that is, in most sense, the spell crystals are blocked, the largest is the thickness of the thumb. The price of this spell crystal is not high. It is a consumable, with a unit price of 500 gold coins per. A slightly better intermediate spell crystal, that is, a fist, the price must be at least multiplied by ten, which is the starting price.
It is 5,000 gold. As for large spell crystals, the volume is equivalent to half a football, and the price is multiplied by ten on the basis of intermediate crystals. Generally, a large spell crystal can be bought with 100,000 gold coins, and many mages will wake up in their dreams. In fact, Chen Kai was also very happy because when he knew that the power provided by the bronze box was a large spell crystal, he felt that he had taken a big advantage. But he didn't know that the crystal was used, and there was not much residual power. As a result, when the armor was almost repaired yesterday, the spell crystal embedded in the bronze box was shattered.
Depressed Chen Kai sighed at the remaining damaged parts on the armor, and also saw the useless metal waste after the armor was repaired.
.) Now Chen Kai's only purpose in walking on the streets of Redstone Fortress is to find acquaintances to see if he can buy a large piece of spell crystal, and at the same time buy some rare metals to accelerate the repair of armor. If it is in the Hansting Empire, or if it is in Chen Kai's own manor, the underground treasure room of the manor stores a lot of rare metals collected by Chen Kai. Whether it is purple iron or other rare metals, there are some inventory, but he is now in the Rohan Empire or in a military fortress. The prices of metals and other materials will naturally continue to rise at this time. This is even more so for large pieces of spell crystals.
Chen Kai has asked several players who escaped to the Redstone Fortress together, but unfortunately they can't get rare metals, let alone the more expensive large spell crystals. Now Chen Kai can only take the idea of Viscount Andoske, hoping to rely on his life-saving grace to ask him to help. However, Viscount Andoske is not easy to find, because the other party parted ways with Chen Kai and the others after arriving at the Redstone Fortress. So far, Chen Kai and the others have no news about each other. If Chen Kai cannot find the other party, naturally there will be no way to ask the other party for help.
After helping, he could only ask Xu Fei to find a mage in the floating mage tower of the Red Stone Fortress where he is now, and he might even have to exchange it with a bottle of Holy Lake water. If it is not absolutely necessary, Chen Kai really doesn't want to expose the Holy Lake water to those spellcasters. Compared with the spellcasters of the Rohan Empire, the priest Ke Qiya, especially the indigenous spellcasters, Chen Kai was very alert. According to Xu Fei's information, it was that the spellcasters of the Rohan Empire were very greedy, not only greed for various spell knowledge and secret methods, but also greed for rare spell materials.
According to Xu Fei's understanding, if Chen Kai really exchanged a large piece of spell crystal with the Holy Lake water, then the days ahead may be unrest. At the beginning, it would be blackmail or even blackmail. If Chen Kai could not satisfy the appetite of those noble spell casters, it would become a secret assassination and robbery. For killing a temple profession, these indigenous spell casters have absolutely no psychological burden. Even if Chen Kai and the others are players, the situation is the case. Because Xu Fei learned secretly that there is a lot in the Rohan Empire.
Many noble mages have a way to limit players to a certain area to resurrect, and then continue to kill until something they are satisfied with is exposed. They are not afraid of players' revenge, because so far the players have no way to revenge them. Fortunately, so far, there are basically few unlucky players who have been targeted by these noble spellcasters. But Xu Fei feels that if they expose the holy lake water, which can increase the upper limit of magic power, it will definitely become a test item for these noble spellcasters to test the traveler's imprisonment spells.
So according to Xu Fei's words, it is to make Chen Kai insist on wearing a broken armor and not expose the water of the Holy Lake to the eyes of those noble mages. The exposed magic mixture is the kind of potion used by Chen Yi. There are many similar things among the mages, and even the more effective ones are. So Xu Fei is not very worried.
"Malasusa Knight, do you know where the Viscount Andosk is?" Chen Kai found a knight they saw when they entered the fortress at the city defense station of the Redstone Fortress. He wanted to use the other party to learn about the whereabouts of Viscount Andosk. In fact, Chen Kai had a better candidate to ask, that is, the Baron Zhafu who brought him golden Rohan iron horse harnesses. Unfortunately, Chen Kai did not know where the baron lived, and forgot to ask about the other party's Viscount Andosk.
"Sorry! Lord Berkner from Hans Court, I can't answer your question. Maybe you can ask Baron Chizama! He is now on the city wall, and he is wearing silver armor and a red cloak!" This is the Knight of Malasusa, who is not the upper level of the Redstone Fortress. In fact, the Knight of Rohan Empire is not a rare noble title. Even in Hans Court, the Knight is as cheap as the cabbage on the roadside. When Chen Kai just became a knight, the title of this noble title was a little valuable, but as the players gradually deepened their understanding of the game, it was only then that the Knight of the Knight was still as cheap as the cabbage on the roadside.
It was found that in some places, especially in military fortresses, knights are as common as weeds on the roadside. As long as you gain a little military merit, you can get the title of the knight, but this title is not hereditary. If you want to become a hereditary knight, you have to continue working hard or have a fief. Although the surrounding Malasusa Knights had received a group of people when Chen Kai and his friends entered the fortress, it does not mean that the other party will know where Viscount Andoske is going. It is impossible for a non-hereditary knight who does not even have a fief and an ancient noble who has a fief.
"Okay! Thank you! Knight Malasusa!" Although he did not get the answer he wanted, he still gave the other party a little thanks. However, with his huge body, this thanks made the other party feel a huge pressure. Knight Malasusa almost looked at Chen Kai with fear, shaking his body nearly twice as tall as him, and slowly walked towards the city wall more than 30 meters high in the Red Stone Fortress.
After climbing the city wall, Chen Kai easily found the Baron Qizama, and at the same time he saw the chubby Baron Zafu beside him! The two were scolding a team of knights with dark faces, and of course, it might be a team of cavalry. When Chen Kai walked into them, he saw that the team of cavalry was covered with various scars, and there were also some scratches from dead creatures. The black color on the wound made Chen Kai feel that the other party might have been hit by the undead toxin. So he couldn't help but throw a healing magic technique at the other party's body. Of course, it was just an ordinary healing minor injury, but even if the ordinary magic technique was replaced by Chen Kai, it had a certain special effect. Because Chen Kai found himself
The attribute of the fighting spirit seems to affect the magic power, which is the display of magical arts. That is, even if Chen Kai casts a healing magical art, the attribute of evil will be manifested in magical arts, not just in Dou Qi attacks. This situation makes Chen Kai's magical arts have a stronger damage and inhibitory effect on evil or filthy power. The undead power contained in the wounds of these cavalrymen is quickly annihilated under the treatment of Chen Kai's magical arts, but those cavalry will definitely be very painful during the recovery process. If people who are not sure about the situation will definitely think that Chen Kai is attacking them, not helping them, so Chen Kai's kindness is rewarded by the cavalry's glaring eyes.
"Get out! You trash, don't you know that Lord Berkner is helping you to dispel the undead toxins on your body? Idiots who don't even know that you are poisoned will not get out!" The words were Baron Zhafu. When he saw the light golden light generated when Chen Kai casts spells, he naturally would not think that Chen Kai was hurting these cavalry. At the same time, he also saw the black wound of the treated person, and what flashed through his mind was the terrible toxins carried by the dead creatures. The resentful expressions of these cavalry due to pain were naturally seen by him. He directly cursed the other party and asked the cavalry to run to deal with the wounds. He did not want these cavalry who were the waste to die because of the worsening injuries.
"Sorry! Let you laugh at Lord Berkner!" Baron Zhafu was very friendly to Chen Kai, a player, not only because the other party had saved Andosk, but also because of the things that Chen Kai gave him. Although Chen Kai almost bought them at the price of scrap when he received them, when Baron Zhafu took them to identify them, he found that several items were valuable. Although they were not necessarily priceless, they were at least worth thousands of gold coins. However, if the Baron knew that Chen Kai had purchased these things at the price of a few gold coins, he might not have been so enthusiastic about him. Instead, he was jealous of Chen Kai's luck.
"Nothing! I'm too hasty to take action. It's my mistake to release the magical technique without your permission to heal them and cause the pain of those knights!" Chen Kai's face was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that his magical technique would actually cause such a big reaction from the other party. At the same time, after this incident, he gradually discovered that even the healing magical technique can cause damage to evil forces. However, the range of the healing magical technique is really limited, and the farthest is ten meters, obviously it can only be used for close combat. Moreover, because the damage ability of the magical technique itself is very limited. After Chen Kai's careful idea, he found that using magical technique to fight in this way is a waste of magical power, because healing magical magic is really useless for damage.
"Then Lord Berkner! Is there anything you need to do with me?" Baron Zafu didn't know that Chen Kai was originally looking for Baron Qizama standing next to him, and it was a complete accident when he met him. However, instead of dealing with Baron Qizama who was not very familiar with, it would be better to deal with Baron Zafu, a good impression of him, so Chen Kai naturally turned his target to the other party.
"That's right! I want to ask the whereabouts of Viscount Andoske who retreated to the fortress with me?" Chen Kai originally wanted to ask Baron Zaf in front of him if he could help buy rare metals and large spell crystals, but he swallowed it before he could say anything, because he was worried that the other party's position was too low and he couldn't do it. At least Chen Kai thought that the energy of a viscount would definitely be larger than that of a baron, and the channels would be more.
"Oh! Viscount Andoske? Sorry! Lord Berkner may not be able to see the other party in the Redstone Fortress, because he has been sent to the rear by Earl Markrachi. As the only relative close to the Earl, perhaps the poor Viscount Andoske is the last adult middle-aged man in the Earl Markrachi family! God knows what our poor chief has committed, but he has given birth to seventeen daughters in a row but no son. If nothing unexpected happens, a Count of the Macrac family will give birth to a female Count." Baron Zaf obviously has a good relationship with Baron Zizama around him. At the same time, perhaps the people in the Redstone Fortress do not have particular respect for their highest boss, or that Earl Markrachi is more tolerant of his subordinates, so the baron will wantonly discuss the descendants of his commander in front of Chen Kai.
"That's it! Alas..." Chen Kai was very depressed about the news he had just heard in his mind. Although he had already prepared a little, he did not expect that the Viscount Andoske was sent to the rear. However, I think that the poor Viscount was not possible to stay in the Redstone Fortress. Because it was too dangerous. At the same time, as a wounded man, he basically did not have much combat power.
"Is there anything you need to ask him?" Baron Zafu saw Chen Kai's sighing expression flashing with a hint of doubt, although he knew that Chen Kai had saved the other party. Moreover, the so-called retreat to the Redstone Fortress in Chen Kai was completely nonsense, and it could almost be escaping to the Redstone Fortress.
"I want to ask him for a favor! See if I can buy some rare metals and some large spell crystals!" Chen Kai looked at Baron Zafu's face and directly showed his purpose, because he was not buying any prohibited items, so he naturally didn't need to cover it up.
"That's all? Why are you looking for him? Just look for me directly!" Baron Zafu showed a embarrassed look when he heard Chen Kai's words. Of course, he immediately recovered with Chen Kai's confused eyes because he knew that the other party had no idea what he was doing in the Redstone Fortress.
"Ahem! This Baron Zafu is the supervisor in charge of logistics affairs of the fortress, so if you want to buy rare metals and large spell crystals, you must find him! Of course, the amount cannot be too large, and if it is too large, he can't explain it!" Qi Zama coughed and said something that made Chen Kai dull. Chen Kai never expected that the chubby baron in front of him was actually the logistics manager of the Redstone Fortress.
When Chen Kai left the Redstone Fortress in a daze, he still couldn't believe what he had encountered. Not only did he buy what he needed, but he also exceeded the amount he wanted. Two large spell crystals, plus nearly 200 kilograms of rare metal, were all Chen Kai gained, and it cost him nearly 300,000 gold coins in total. If he wanted to buy this amount of things on the market, at least add 50,000 to this number. Regarding Chen Kai's luck, others could not say anything other than lamenting his luck.
While Chen Kai continued to repair his armor with the spell crystals and rare metals, the Lord Andosen, who had destroyed himself and suffered heavy injuries, was slowly repairing his injuries. A large amount of blood was poured into a pool of blood pieces made up of bones, and Ahma Lagas was frowning at the edge of his work. He could not understand why his works had lost half of his head after being eroded by holy water. What he didn't understand the most was the degree of slowness of the other party's injury repair, as if some kind of force was delayed in the recovery of the wound of the Blood Demon Puppet.
"Let me know who destroyed my precious works. I must twist his head off as a ball! Come here for me!" As the words of the black-robed Amma Lagas sounded, Lunash, the former Knight of the Temple of Life, was driving his stiff body to slowly walk to the other party and half-kneeled down. Although due to time, Lunash's body was not completely converted into a dead creature, but just from his appearance, it seemed that he was about to become a real death knight.
Chapter completed!
