He had discussed the strength of the Mirror Dragon with Luigi before.
Although Quintra is not the top being among cave dragons, he can still reach the level of a second-level wizard, and his full attack can even reach the peak level of a second-level wizard.
Even if Sanders comes to meet him, he needs to be careful.
Pure rock crystal clusters can withstand Kuntera's full attack, even if it only takes two hits, it is definitely considered the best.
You know, many times the success or failure of a battle is determined within one or two attacks.
It’s just that it’s so expensive.
Angel is also a little bit greedy for pure rock crystal clusters, but unfortunately... it's too expensive. Fifty thousand crystals sounds okay, but fifty thousand crystals is only the price of one unit. If he wants to use pure rock crystal clusters to make defensive products,
The armor requires at least one hundred units, which is five million crystals.
Instead of spending five million crystals to buy pure rock crystal clusters, you might as well buy some specific materials and refine your own defensive props.
Speaking of refining it by himself, Angel suddenly thought of a possibility: "Can this kind of crystal shell be used as a material and added to alchemy and forging?"
Quintra thought for a moment and shook his head: "This...should not be possible."
"I once saw a collection compiled by Mr. De in the library. According to Mr. De's records, the crystal shell is a crystal condensed by the Jingmu tribe through a special method. They themselves may think it is a kind of 'creation', but
In essence, this is a special kind of 'forging', with a structural chain composed of crystal bonds of various properties inside."
"Once this structure is mixed with any other material, it may cause the crystal bonds inside the crystal shell to disintegrate, causing the crystal shell to lose its effectiveness."
"It is precisely because of this that the crystal shell is difficult to forge again."
Angel nodded in understanding. To put it bluntly, he understood the crystal shell as a finished alchemical product. If he wanted to tamper with the finished product, he would most likely cause harm to the finished product itself.
In order to verify Quintra's statement, Angel also penetrated the space with his mental power and scanned the red red hair in all directions.
As expected, the internal structure is extremely complex and full of unknown crystal bonds. Once modified from the inside, the red dandruff will immediately become ineffective.
It seems that it is impossible to use alchemy to transform the crystal shell.
However... if ordinary alchemy methods don't work, you can try fantasy alchemy.
Fantasy Alchemy does not need to destroy the material body, but is directly attached to the outside of the body; for example, various "modules" outside the heart mirror are loaded through Fantasy Alchemy after being refined.
However, Angel's Fantasy Alchemy has only taken its prototype at present, and its complete application requires further polishing and precipitation on his part.
Angel shook his head, temporarily leaving these complicated thoughts behind, and prepared to continue looking at the name of the special crystal shell.
At this moment, Quintra suddenly said: "Although the defensive properties of pure rock crystal clusters are good, their defense types are too average. If you want to buy defensive crystal shells, you can purchase special crystal shells based on your own needs.
A chemical version of rock crystal clusters.”
Specialized version? Angel nodded thoughtfully.
When he scanned the names of crystal shells in his mind before, he did see a lot of "specialized versions", and he thought that was what Kuntla was talking about.
Angel moved his attention upwards and looked at an item above the pure rock crystal cluster.
"Rock crystal cluster - teleportation specialization: a flaxen crystal shell, which will enter a 'stiff' state after use. It cannot be moved in the 'stiff' state, but it can provide extremely strong space protection and can teleport in medium and long distances.
Stay safe. Forty-five thousand crystals per division."
After reading the so-called "teleportation specialization" rock crystal cluster, Angel roughly understood what Quintra meant.
There are many defensive crystal shells. Although pure rock crystal clusters have good defense, they are too average. The specialized version of defensive crystal shells has certain flaws, but is extremely outstanding in its own field.
Take this "Teleport Specialized" rock crystal cluster, for example. It may not be useful in battle, and its shortcomings are obvious. After use, it will be in a frozen state and unable to move; but it can resist the ripples caused by space teleportation.
Medium and long-distance space teleportation will produce huge space ripples, and only formal wizard-level beings and above can guard the space. Therefore, if wizard apprentices want to teleport over long distances, they need the protection of formal wizards.
But if you use rock crystal clusters specialized for teleportation, you don't need a formal wizard, and wizard apprentices can also teleport alone.
This is its specialized effect.
Don't think that this effect can only be used by apprentice-level beings. In fact, formal wizards can also use it. In terms of "effect", it may even be better than that of apprentices.
Give an example.
Once a formal wizard is in a desperate situation and encounters an invincible danger, he will most likely make a decision: to forcibly open a plane passage.
Because it is forcibly opened, the space fluctuations will be more turbulent than usual. Even if the official wizard is prepared in advance, there is a certain probability that he will lose his way in the space fluctuations and eventually fall into the vast and unknown void of the plane.
What's more, when a formal wizard forcibly opens a plane passage, it is basically at a desperate moment, and it is impossible to prepare in advance, and the possibility of getting lost is even greater.
At this time, if there are rock crystal clusters specialized in teleportation, they can withstand a certain degree of space fluctuations and give themselves a greater chance of survival.
From this point of view, its role is very great.
From Angel's point of view, it is more attractive than the previous pure rock clusters.
When the login device is spread out and the crystals are enough, you may consider buying some as a reserve.
In addition to "teleport specialization", there are many specialized versions of rock crystal clusters. For example, "sharp specialization" and "blunt weapon specialization". These specializations can be understood literally, and they are aimed at penetration.
force and coverage.
There are also things like "Elemental Specialization" and "Psychic Specialization", which are aimed at elemental attacks and mental attacks. There are even "Magic Specialization", which are specifically targeted at wizards.
It can be said that specialized versions of rock crystal clusters account for half of the names, and almost one-half are rock crystal clusters.
Moreover, they are all piled up in the second half of the title... which also means that the prices of these specialized versions are quite high.
In other words, as long as it involves defensive crystal shells, regardless of whether they are specialized or not, the price of one company is much higher than other crystal shells...
As for the reason, maybe it’s because of the commonality of the Jingmu clan itself, which tends to be defensive?
Otherwise, they wouldn't have the entire Jingmu clan stuck in a crystal castle...
After looking at the specialized defensive rock crystal clusters, Angel then looked at other types of special crystal shells.
"Vacuum membrane: A pure black crystal shell. When in the void or other harsh environments, the vacuum membrane can be used to isolate external pressure. Eight thousand condensed crystals in one unit."
This kind of crystal shell is only for species that require "oxygen".
The vacuum membrane can isolate the external void and create an oxygen environment inside. It is a special type of crystal shell.
If we use a metaphor, this is probably an extraordinary world version of a "space suit." However, this space suit can hold a huge amount of oxygen, and it can even be made for self-use.
"Transparent shell: a colorless crystal shell. When the transparent shell covers an object, it will suppress the breath and become invisible. Living creatures can also be covered, but there must be no dead ends in the whole body. There are 23,000 condensed crystals in one unit."
This kind of crystal shell is similar to an "invisibility cloak". As long as it forms a covering shell outside the body, it can become invisible.
Not only can it be invisible to objects, it can also be invisible to living creatures, and it can also suppress energy aura.
From a practical point of view, the strategic importance of this "transparent shell" is still very high. The only thing that needs to be noted is that if you want to make a living creature invisible, you must be covered with this kind of shell, and covering the whole body is definitely not the same.
What the two companies can achieve will require more crystal shells and the price will reach astonishing levels.
"Green Pine Coffin: A pale green crystal shell, which can slowly heal injuries, Ichisi..."
Angel looked at some more special crystal shells, and from a single effect point of view, they were all pretty good.
However, if these crystal shells are regarded as "finished alchemy products", Angel will feel that something is missing... because if he refines them himself, he can also produce similar effects.
Take the "Transparent Shell" for example. With Angel's alchemy skills, it is not difficult to refine an invisibility cloak. If the Mad Hatter were crowned, it might become a "treasure" level invisibility cloak.
Therefore, it seems pretty good when taken alone, but if you really think about it, 90% of the crystal shells are not as good as the props he refined himself.
"How do you like it?" Quintra looked at Angel: "Is there a crystal shell you want to buy?"
Perhaps seeing Angel slowly coming back to his senses, Quintra asked.
Angel: "Generally speaking, these crystal shells are pretty good, but what attracts me the most is..."
From Angel's own point of view, after reading the entire title, the most attractive thing for him, besides the teleportation of specialized rock crystal clusters, is——
Vacuum membrane!
The effect of the vacuum membrane is definitely not of much use to Angel.
But the vacuum membrane is also a crystal shell, and the crystal shell has a common effect: mimicry.
If the vacuum membrane is imitated into the shape of a palace, and then you are refining a larger space prop, and put the vacuum membrane palace into the space prop, wouldn't it become a "space prop" that can accommodate living creatures?
?
Generally speaking, if the alchemist wants to accommodate living creatures in the space, he needs to place void floating algae.
Void floating algae is an extremely special magical plant that has the characteristics of the void of space and the characteristics of plants. It can absorb free space energy to meet its own survival conditions. In other words, it can independently create a patch of living things in the void.
A space where plants can live.
Unfortunately, Void Floating Algae is too expensive and scarce.
There are void algae in the space of Angel's bracelet. There are 13 void algae in total, but they create a half-meter-square living environment.
The price of 13 void floating algae in the auction house is at least six or seven thousand magic crystals.
If converted, it is much more expensive than vacuum membrane.
Therefore, in Angel's view, the vacuum membrane can completely replace the role of "void floating algae". It is cheaper and can create a wider living environment. It is definitely the best in terms of cost performance.
Angel expressed his thoughts. After hearing this, Quintra rubbed his chin with his paw: "Void floating algae? I have never heard of such a thing. But according to you, vacuum membrane should be able to replace the void.
Floating algae, and I think there may be some kind of microorganisms inside the vacuum membrane that create the living environment you mentioned..."
Otherwise, it would be difficult for the vacuum membrane to be self-sufficient.
Angel will not comment on this yet. Whether there are microorganisms or "void floating algae" will be decided after he comes into contact with the vacuum membrane in the future.
If that's true, then maybe you don't need to buy a vacuum membrane, and you can go directly to Jingmu to buy void floating algae, and the price may be cheaper.
While Angel was making calculations in his mind, Quintra said softly: "I remember the vacuum membrane and the rock crystal clusters specialized in transmission. I will contact Olsandra later and ask him to buy more during the purchase.
.”
Angel: “There’s no need to buy it now, just pay more attention.”
After a detailed analysis of the specific situation, it is obviously inappropriate for them to make a final decision without seeing the finished product.
If possible, Angel hopes to see actual samples before making a decision.
Quintra nodded: "I understand..."
After a pause, Quintra did not continue talking about the crystal shell, but turned to point to the top of the mountain not far away: "We...are here."
Angel and Laplace followed Quintera's fingers.
I saw layers of thick swirling clouds on top of the majestic mountains, like a funnel, narrow at the bottom and wide and thick at the top.
In the thick clouds, you can vaguely see the darkness inside. Thunder snakes are scurrying around in the black clouds, and the lightning is entangled like vines...
And hidden behind the clouds that look like a natural disaster is the cave dragon's station... Cloud Cave.
…
Under the leadership of Quintra, Angel and others stopped on the top of the mountain.
Passing the long ladder on the top of the mountain, they walked step by step into the higher and more majestic cloud depths.
From the outside, there may be thunder and lightning dancing wildly in the cloud cave, but when you walk in from the ladder, you can't see any strange phenomena. Everything is very calm. There are gray clouds and mist under your feet, and at the end of the ladder is a door made of gray mist.
When they reached the end of the cloud ladder, before Quintra could lead them into the cloud cave, they saw a huge silver-eyed cave dragon standing in front of the gray fog door.
Angel was no stranger to this cave dragon. He had seen it both in Crystal City and in the Crystal Plains of Dreams.
It is the owner of the Dragon God's Mark, the leader of the new generation of cave dragons...Kukulus.
After seeing Angel and others arriving, Kukulus slowly shrank in size and finally turned into a mini cave dragon of about two meters.
It floated towards them.
At this moment, its expression was no longer as arrogant as when he first saw it, but Angel could see a hint of awkwardness in its eyes.
Maybe it’s because you didn’t like the login tool introduced by Luigi at first, but now you have to look down on it, so it’s awkward?
Angel didn't bother to speculate. As long as the final result was consistent, it didn't matter what bumps and bumps there were along the way.
