Chapter 40 Looting the Mage Tower! (All six updates complete)
Fang Senyan smiled slightly and said, "That's because I don't belong to Middle-earth at all... Moreover, I came here with a special mission, so that's why. Pay attention to the door ahead, yes, yes, only push the left side."
As they spoke, the two walked directly to the third floor. Reaching this point, Fang Senyan's expression turned serious. "This floor is Saruman's modulation room. There should be at least one tentacle monster inside monitoring the temperature. It's necessary to adjust the temperature at all times, otherwise, the Uruk-hai created will lose control. Can you quickly take it down?"
Wu Zun hesitated for a moment. "I think so. As long as it's not a particularly large one."
Fang Senyan nodded, giving Wu Ge a gesture to prepare to open the door, and then began to count down three, two, but not one!!! Because Fang Senyan forgot that Wu Ge girl simply did not know the "three two one" gesture which is a common tactic in the real world!
He only saw that Wu Ge girl's originally clear eyes suddenly became deep, and then from her raised white and slender fingertips, a brilliant gold-colored ancient Elven divine rune rapidly floated out, quickly changing shape in the air. Then, a surging power came straight at them, and the divine rune finally condensed into a golden chain. With a swoosh, it directly broke through the stone door in front of them!
Dawn, Curse Lock!!
A tentacle monster was using its tentacles to poke at the modulation tank in front of it. The dense eyes growing around its head were indeed said to be the all-weather, 24-hour, no-blind-spot type, but facing the golden chain that came from the sky and soared through the air, it had no resistance at all.
Wu Ge's hands formed a gesture like a blooming flower, and then the golden chain twisted and intertwined in the air, forming a strangely shaped golden lock, which fastened onto the tentacle monster's forehead!
The tentacle monster froze in place. Wu Ge walked directly over, her slender fingers forming three or four gestures in the air in succession. The golden lock quickly reverted to a chain, then returned to its original form as a golden Elven divine rune, and finally disappeared from Wu Ge's fingertips.
At this time, the expression on Wu Ge's face also looked quite surprised. In fact, she herself had never expected the power of this attack to be so strong! Fang Senyan, however, seemed to have realized something. Judging from the power of this move alone, it seemed that it was not without reason that Rivendell only produced one Dawn Elf every three hundred and seventeen years.
The rest of the matter naturally need not be said. The guards in the magic tower were already in an extremely weak state, and the traps set up by those orcs were like a familiar road for Fang Senyan. Soon, the two broke through to the fourth floor. This was Saruman's research and dissection room. There were three orc half-breeds doing odd jobs inside, but Wu Ge girl instantly threw out three Dawn, Precept Lances, directly piercing their chests and turning them into treant puppets!
In the vast space, seven or eight roughly made thick wooden tables were placed, and the granite on the ground was also crisscrossed, showing a rough style. On the tables were a large number of organs such as hearts, livers, stomachs, and kidneys, and dissected orc corpses were piled up in the corners like杂物.
Black blood gathered on the ground, even凝结 into团团 rock-like clots. The pungent腥味 made Wu Ge frown immediately, releasing a natural spell to envelop her body.
Fang Senyan's gaze, however, stopped on a seemingly ordinary door at the far end of the hall. This door seemed to be made of oak, not at all strong, and there were clear cracks on it. Even through the cracks, one could easily see the situation inside the door. But Fang Senyan knew that all this was an illusion, because after this door was opened, it was the passage to the fifth floor of the magic tower.
As the saying goes, those who travel a hundred li are halfway through at ninety. From now on, what Fang Senyan and the others had to face were not those crude mechanisms and shallow physical traps, but the real defensive measures of the magic tower.
This also meant that killing runes made of ithildin metal would be embedded in any place you could not imagine, and from this, it could be derived that the two were about to face many huge dangers, including but not limited to: strong acid, flames, storms, lava, spikes, poisonous gas, and even the summoning of other-dimensional creatures and other powerful magic and magical traps.
The golden ancient divine rune shone again in front of Fang Senyan. Wu Ge once again cast the Dawn Precept Lance, a spell with considerable power. The golden spear suddenly tore through the wooden door, and then the seemingly transparent space rippled like a ripple, directly swallowing the golden spear.
In that instant, light flickered, and black and white magic textures interlaced, and when the dust settled, a staircase built of pure white mica stone appeared in front of Fang Senyan and the others, curving upwards. On the side wall of the staircase, the six characters "Silver Stream City" were written in large letters. ... This curved upward staircase did not seem long. Even standing below and looking up, one could see the floor of the top floor. The handrail of the staircase shone with a metallic light. Although it did not have a magnificent feeling, it had a majestic and imposing manner like a monarch!
At this point, those physical common senses simply would not work. The construction of the magic tower alone was based on natural scientific foundations, such as arcane geometry, potion science, and so on.
The only good news was that, strictly speaking, this magic tower was essentially only one floor, and the various magic traps and mechanisms arranged in the magic tower were closely related to the number of floors in the magic tower. Moreover, the host of the magic tower was likely still in a battle with that giant octopus, which would undoubtedly reduce the power of the magic tower's mechanisms by more than 50%.
Fang Senyan pondered slightly. Although he did not know the identification and destruction of magic mechanisms, when he entered as an apprentice before, he was at least in a full-strength state with a perception of 25 points, so his considerable perception would also warn him of places with fatal dangers. He pointed out the parts where he felt a huge threat at that time one by one, which finally allowed Wu Ge to have a target.
After a lot of tossing, this passage was made full of holes and full of smoke and miasma. Even the six characters ","Silver Stream City"" were blown away by four, and the thirteen solidified ancient Elven divine runes that Wu Ge girl originally had were also consumed, leaving only three.
Wu Ge's face was also a lot paler. Although her eyes were still clear, there was also an unusually clear fatigue. Fortunately, after the ancient Elven divine rune was formed, it would not completely disappear, but only the magic power inside would be exhausted, and then it would gradually recover with meditation and rest.
As the last magic mechanism was broken through, suddenly an extremely ear-piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire magic tower. The sound was like a crazy female ghost screaming sharply, seemingly endlessly, without end. The sound spread from the magic tower to the entire orc city, echoing淒厉 between the snow peaks, sounding much more powerful than the air raid alarm in the real world.
Hearing the female ghost's scream, Fang Senyan was immediately overjoyed. This was obviously Saruman's clone's last resort. When he set up this series of magic mechanisms, he directly used this most primitive and helpless method. Whether the last layer of mechanisms in this magic tower was opened violently or normally, this terrifying scream would appear,轰鸣 the entire orc camp. If Saruman did not use "Greater Shout" to notify that it was safe within five seconds, then all the orcs must come immediately.
However, almost all of the orcs left behind in the camp at this time were old, weak, sick, and disabled. According to Fang Senyan's speculation, the total number was probably less than ten! Even if these guys dared to come to support, those three treants would be enough to take them down. Fang Senyan and Wu Ge looked down from above and saw the scattered, limping orcs coming to support below the tower, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
At this time, time was tight. The two hurriedly went upstairs. They saw that the area of the fifth floor of the magic tower was not very large, only about one hundred square meters. In the center was a huge test bench. The material of the test bench was made of a smooth stone material, very similar to marble, but there were obvious magic fluctuation traces on the surface. It was estimated that the small spell of cleaning術 had been solidified. There were several sets of alchemical crystal equipment that looked very dirty on the test bench, as well as microscopes, crystal balls, and other things.
Around the wall, there were several large boxes placed. These boxes looked like they were made of bronze-like metal and looked very strong and sturdy. Fang Senyan opened them one by one, and immediately a series of surprising and even maddening prompts came to his ears.
"You have discovered precious metal: Mithril (3 pounds)"
"The value of mithril is a hundred times that of gold. It is a metal that everyone in the world will fight for. Its ductility is as great as bronze, and it can be polished like glass. Dwarves can forge it into a metal that is stronger than steel but as light as a feather. Its beauty is like ordinary silver, but the luster of mithril will not fade with time. It has the elasticity of cloth, the low temperature of ice, and the hardness of steel."
"Its most valuable point is that it has a rare magic affinity among metals. This means that wearing armor infused with mithril and using weapons infused with mithril will not affect the release of magic, and can also have the sharpness and balance of steel. This will give magic professions a very powerful overwhelming advantage in battle. The Mines of Moria are the only place with mithril resources in the Third Age, but there are signs that mithril also has a smaller yield in Numenor and Aman."
"You have discovered precious gems: Rubies * 3, Sapphires * 4, Cat's Eye Stones * 2."
"These rare gems can transform equipment after being inlaid. Any one of them can be exchanged for 1,000 slaves in any country."
"You have discovered three pounds of adamantite: This extremely hard and rare metal can improve the quality of weapons or armor. Weapons forged from adamantite have the natural ability to ignore hardness. When breaking weapons and attacking items, they can ignore hardness less than 20. Armor forged from adamantite provides damage reduction to the wearer. Usually, only metal weapons, armor, and shields can be forged from adamantite. Weapons, armor, and shields made of adamantite instead of steel have one-third more durability than ordinary items."
