Chapter 174 Two Saint Domain Powerful Men

"Unfortunately, the toughness of these woods is still a little too low."

After the launch, Rhodes looked at the homemade magic cannon in his hand, which seemed to have some cracks.

Even though it was made from a random piece of wood, it turned out like this when casting a second-level magic. It goes without saying that high-level magic would have higher requirements for materials.

If you want to mass produce, you have to find a suitable material, preferably one that is available in large quantities and is easy to obtain.

"As for materials with high magical toughness, why don't you just use elemental crystals to make the cannon barrel?" Augla on the side suggested.

Unexpectedly.

As soon as he said this, Rhodes and Alpha suddenly looked at him with fixed eyes.

"Uh...did I say something wrong?" Augula said a little guiltily.

"No, you're right, why didn't I think of that?"

Rhodes clapped his hands before finally reacting.

The magic has strong endurance and is easy to obtain in large quantities. Aren’t they those elemental crystals?
You should know that those crystals are transformed from elemental ores and are everywhere in the Holy Mountain of Elements.

Moreover, it is hard enough to be broken even by a heavy blow, making it perfect for making magic cannon.

The most important thing is that the crystal itself contains a large amount of attribute magic power, which saves him the step of embedding the crystal.

Because the magic cannon itself is a whole piece of crystal!

"Okay, let's do it."

Ignoring the two, Rhodes excitedly left the altar and came to the open space to select the elemental crystals he had brought back earlier. He quickly selected an ice-type blue crystal.

The polishing tool he used was the first-level air drill magic he had just learned from the alchemy secret book.

There weren't many high-end items in this alchemical book, but there were a lot of practical low-level magic, which saved him the effort of looking for low-level magic scrolls everywhere.

As he raised his hand, a green wind magic circle appeared in his palm. The gathered wind energy rotated at a high speed and turned into a drill-like object in a blink of an eye. A whistling sound of wind was heard.

"It's really convenient to be proficient in all subjects."

While murmuring, Rhodes carefully controlled the size of the air drill, drilled a hole in the crystal, and then polished the edge with the drill bit, leaving a groove to embed the arm.

The buzzing sound immediately attracted the little animals playing nearby, and they all looked like curious babies.

This reminded Rhodes of his childhood in his previous life when he also liked to watch adults welding, operating drilling machines, cutting wood boards, and fiddling with all those messy tools.

He found it very interesting and watched it for the whole afternoon until his family came to call him home for dinner, and then he left reluctantly.

Even his previous wish was naively to become a drilling rig master, driving a machine on the road, how cool.

Later, somehow, I became a programmer. I soaked wolfberries every day to keep healthy, thinking of opening a farm after retirement to enjoy my old age.

Now the wish has come true.

It's just that this approach seems a little wrong.

"Forget it, stay away and don't get splashed by the debris."

Rhodes pulled his thoughts back and continued polishing the crystal.

The purified ice crystal was emitting a chill, so the shaved pieces also carried a hint of coldness.

When it fell on the little creatures, they immediately jumped up and down and screamed.

As a result, when the cold air dissipated, they came closer again, deliberately trying to catch the flying debris, just like a group of kittens seeing new toys.

Good food and fun-loving.

I don’t even know if there are cats and dogs in this world.

There should be, right?
Rhodes polished the barrel as he thought, and soon he had it shaped. A cold blue air emanated from it, causing his arms to shiver.

"The next step is to draw the magic circle."

After saying that, he took out the gilding powder and drew a basic alchemical magic circle on both sides of the barrel, which was the magic gathering magic circle.

then.

He then drew the magic circle of the explosive shield.

This is why he chose ice crystal.

Because his shield magic was originally an ice shield, the principle of transforming it into an explosive shield is the same.

And in order to ensure the power, he drew five in a row on the muzzle and left a gap at the adjacent position to ensure that the magic would not be triggered automatically.

"Very good. Now we just need to add an elastic device to the gap to act as a switch. It can be divided into five levels to have different firing powers. Go and get those fragments."

After hearing what Rhode said, the little guys immediately ran away, picked up the ice crystal fragments, and then squatted beside him to watch him tinker with it.

More than ten minutes later.

Rhodes put the cannon on his hand with a look of joy.

"Done!"

He also didn't expect that the first production would go so smoothly.

Immediately, he came down to the open space surrounded by the little guys, slowly raised the ice crystal cannon in his hand, and even the elves who were planting in the distance looked over.

"Stay away, it would be bad if it exploded."

"Yeah!"

"Quack~"

After hearing what Rhode said about the explosion, the little guys were so scared that they scattered and hid behind rocks not far away, poking their little heads out to look over here.

The elves smiled, knowing that the messenger of God was tinkering with something strange again. They were no longer surprised and just lowered their heads to continue planting crops.

"Okay, let's go to fifth gear first!"

With a powerful shout from Rhodes, he pulled the switch to the maximum, connecting all the magic arrays on the barrel.

hum-

The magic light lit up, and a series of stacked ice-blue magic circles were constructed in front of the barrel, each one larger than the other, extending all the way to the fifth floor before stopping.

It looked like a sniper rifle blessed by a magic circle.

"Is he so handsome?"

Rhodes was shocked.

This is so much better than his rotten wooden cannon barrel. Not only does the magic flow more smoothly, but the special effects are also several levels higher.

Then, as he watched in surprise, five thorny ball-shaped ice shields shot out, forming a five-star chain in the air and landed on the rocks dozens of meters away.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"

The violent explosion echoed throughout the entire open space, transforming into a chill that swept across.

When Rhode looked at the man-high rock again, he found that the rock had already broken into countless pieces, and was filled with icicles and frozen into blocks of ice.
Blast + splash + control?

Rhodes took a deep breath of cold air and was amazed by the effect.

You know, even he himself can't cast so many shield magics at once.

The power of this instant explosion is almost as powerful as third-level magic.

This is just a first-level magic. When five of them are overlapped, the power is increased so much. It turns out that the idea of ​​using elemental crystals to make the cannon body is the correct one!
Rhodes looked at the gun body. After firing five explosive shields, the gun body had exhausted its energy and completely dimmed, but no cracks appeared.

With the help of the two alchemical arrays, the cannon began to rapidly absorb magic power and store it inside, just like an automatically charging hand cannon.

He calculated.

In the case of two alchemy arrays, it takes about a minute to charge completely. In other places where the magic power is not so strong, it may take two minutes.

"It's still a bit slow. How can we draw more magic circles in a limited space?"

Rhodes looked thoughtful, thinking about a solution.

There is so little space on the hand cannon that it is already a bit cramped to draw two alchemy arrays and five attack spells.

If he wanted to draw more, he would have to enlarge the cannon, but wouldn't that make it the other thing he wanted to make, a magic cannon?

That thing is not portable at all.

In desperation, he could only call Irene, who was watering the fruit trees, and ask her if she had any solution. After all, the elves had very strong magical talents.

"Draw more magic circles in a limited space? I guess we need to learn how to overlap magic to do this." Erin said thoughtfully.

"Magic overlap?" Rhode's eyes lit up. "Is this possible?"

"Indeed, it is possible, but it seems to be very complicated. Only a few magic scholars with strong mental power can do it. It seems that there is one in our imperial capital. Do you need me to inform Her Majesty the Queen?"

"No need, she's busy lately so I won't bother her. I can go over and ask myself!"

With a whoosh, Rhode disappeared directly into the open space, leaving Erin in a daze.

By the time she realized what was happening, Rhodes had already sat next to the Moon Well, with his consciousness projected into the Elf Empire.

Swish!
There was a flash of light.

When he opened his eyes again, Rhodes had arrived at the familiar tree house.

He originally planned to come back here in a couple of days to get some grain seeds to enrich the variety of grains. Eating just wheat and cabbage would make one sick of it after a while.

But since I'm here to find that magic scholar, it might as well be a good idea to do both things at once.

Think of this.

Rhodes walked out of the tree house, stretched himself, and enjoyed the warm sunshine shining through the treetops.

"You came."

Suddenly, a soft voice sounded behind him.

Rhodes was startled and quickly turned around to look behind him, only to find that the moon elf he had seen before was standing behind him without him noticing, staring at him straight.

"It turned out to be you. You scared me."

Don't you know that appearing suddenly will scare the tree to death?
"Did I... do something wrong?"

Phillis opened her mouth, but her words seemed a little incoherent because she hadn't talked to anyone for a long time.

"No, no." Rhode waved his hands and looked around. "Why did you suddenly appear here? Where are the other elves?"

He remembered that there should be many elf guards patrolling nearby, so why didn't he see any today?
"I... just happened to be passing by here."

Phillis shook the silver hair by her ears and looked away unnaturally.

Rhode didn't notice her abnormality and said happily, "That's right. It's useless to stay in that cabin all day. You'll get sick if you stay there for a long time. It's better to go out for a walk occasionally."

"is it?"

Phillis looked at him steadily, then nodded slightly: "Okay, I will come out often. What are you going to do this time?"

"I'm here to find a man called a magic scholar. It is said that he knows how to overlap magic. Do you know this person?"

The Elf Empire is quite large, and finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so asking the elves for help is the fastest way. I think they should have a registration list.

"A magic scholar?"

Phillis's expression turned serious when she heard this.

With his eyes closed, a spiritual wave as vast as the ocean instantly enveloped the entire Elf Capital.

After only a few breaths, she opened her eyes again and looked in a certain direction of the imperial capital.

"I know where he is."

"Really? Then can you take me there?"

Rhodes did not feel the fluctuation and said excitedly.

Seeing him like this, Felthis smiled faintly and responded with just one word.

"it is good."

that's it.

Under her leadership, Rhodes left the tree house and headed towards the streets of the imperial capital outside.

Moreover, he had a smooth journey along the way. None of the elf guards who had previously blocked his way showed up. It was as if they had suddenly changed their nature. No one knew if they had been called away because they were too busy recently.

……

And at this time.

Inside a palace in the imperial capital.

An old human in a white robe was sweating profusely and collapsed to the ground.

"Holy Domain! This is definitely the aura of a strong person from the Holy Domain!"

The old man's eyes were filled with horror. He looked in the direction where the spiritual energy had just come from, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

Although it was only for a moment, it made him feel extremely palpitating, which was the feeling he only had when facing the Elf Queen.

But he was sure.

That's definitely not the Elf Queen!
There is actually another Saint Realm expert in the Elf Empire? ?

"Bishop, what's wrong with you?"

Several clergymen noticed his abnormality and looked puzzled.

The bishop was praying just now, why is he sweating all of a sudden? Is it because he is not used to the climate in the Elf Empire?
"No, nothing. Today's prayer ends here. I have to go out for something."

After saying this, the bishop hurriedly left the hall.
