"Don't you need to call for Daniel? He's your follower now. " Lex used a small knife to cut the bread and sprinkled salt on it. Only the Qin Empire had such a way of eating.
"Let him calm down first. Lex, how did you get the pan's turtle onto the shore?" Saleen asked as he ate the bread that Sika had cut for him.
The turtle's shell was nearly thirty meters long and more than one meter thick. It was shockingly heavy, and even the ancient giants might not have been able to move it.
"How could I move it? I merely used the natural magic array on the turtle's shell."
Saleen had an epiphany. The turtle's defense was shocking, and the thickness and hardness of the turtle's shell were something that other creatures did not have. With such a heavy shell, it would be difficult to live in the water. There was a magic nucleus and a magic array in the turtle's shell. When the turtle was alive, it only needed to consume the power of the magic nucleus to make the turtle's shell dozens of times lighter. It would then take this opportunity to float to the surface of the water to breathe.
If the turtle's shell had been dozens of times lighter, Nailisi and the seven fully constructed puppets would have been able to move it. In addition, Lex had cast a binding spell to make the turtle's shell slightly lighter. It seemed that Nailisi was not complaining because she wanted to cause trouble. Even if the turtle's shell was dozens of times lighter, it would still weigh hundreds of thousands of kilograms. Nailisi must have suffered a lot in order to pull this big guy onto the shore.
Lex saw that Saleen was looking at Nailisi with a pained expression and laughed. She said to Saleen, "It is not as difficult as you think. I cast a spell to open up a path on the ground and then covered it with ice. It will be much easier to pull it. "
"Master, I am full." Nailisi jumped up and ran out of the magic tower, jumping onto the turtle's shell. It was only then that Saleen realized that he had been tricked. Lex was a grade-6 grand mage, so of course she had many ways to make this path flat. After laying down a layer of ice, she could also continuously change the thickness of the layer of ice so that the angle of advancement would be from top to bottom.
This was only slightly more troublesome, but it was not as tough as Nailisi had made it out to be. In terms of hardship, Lex was the one who had suffered the most. She had to continuously cast spells and control the changes of the spells. If they were not on a deserted island, Lex would have hired dozens of magic beasts to pull the turtle's shell. Now, she could only do it herself.
Now that Saleen knew that there was a natural magic array in the pan's turtle, he could not control himself and could not taste the food. After hurriedly eating two pieces of bread, Saleen asked Lex to take a look inside the turtle shell.
From what Saleen knew in the past, magic beasts were not born with magic arrays. In the Hell of God's Punishment, the magic arrays in the bodies of the demonic beasts were modified and not innate. Now that there was a natural magic array in the turtle shell, how could Saleen be in the mood to eat? For mages, unknown knowledge was more attractive than anything else.
The turtle's shell had already been treated by Fellett once, but since they had been out at sea, the treatment had been extremely crude and crude. He had simply hollowed out the turtle's flesh and soaked it in the water. Now that Saleen was in front of the turtle's shell, he immediately smelled a rotting odor.
There were six openings in the turtle shell. Saleen endured the unpleasant smell and crawled in through the opening at the head.
The space inside the tortoise shell was much larger than expected. There was also a lot of rotten flesh attached to the tortoise shell. Most of it had been dug clean. The height of the space inside the shell was somewhat average, only about five to six meters high. It seemed that the thickness of the tortoise shell was more shocking than expected. Saleen lit up the fluorescence spell and looked at the naturally formed magic patterns beneath his feet. He was deep in thought.
It was a waste to use this tortoise shell to make armor. If the six openings were sealed, it would make a very good ship.
"Come on, let's clean up together and dig out all the rotten flesh." Lex did not avoid the stench and crawled into the tortoise shell.
"Nailisi, be careful. Don't damage the magic patterns." Saleen saw that Nailisi was very fast and was afraid that her fingernails were too sharp. The turtle's shell was hard enough, but Nailisi could still scratch it if she wanted to. If the magic patterns were damaged, the value of the tortoise shell would be greatly reduced.
The four of them began to clean up the rotten flesh in the turtle's shell. After cleaning up a piece, Lex and Saleen used the Cleaning spell and the Fire Washing spell to clean up another piece. Very soon, all the rotten flesh in the turtle's shell was cleaned up. Lex and Saleen used memory magic to memorize the magic patterns on the turtle's shell.
"Saleen, it's dark." Sika reminded him. She had obtained the abilities of a warrior priestess. Very soon, she realized that there was a thick fog outside. In the fog, some strange creatures began to appear. These must be the ghost fog monsters that Daniel had mentioned. They did not feel strong, but their numbers were shocking.
Lex did not want to take the risk, so she put down her work and left the tortoise shell with Saleen and the rest.
Just as they returned to the magic tower, the thick fog completely surrounded the magic tower. Under the base of the magic tower, there was a magic array left behind by the death mage, so the thick fog did not enter the magic tower. Saleen realized that his icy sight could only see less than ten meters through the thick fog. In the thick fog, a small creature that was only one meter tall was crawling slowly.
This was the ghost fog monster. It had a human face and slender limbs. Even Saleen was confident that he could break its waist with one kick. However, this small monster had sharp teeth and claws. The surface of its body was not covered with hair or scales, but with a thick layer of rust.
It was rust. The surface of this small monster's body was like a puppet that had been corroded.
Ge ge … Ao …
The small monster's cries were sharp. Saleen felt an invisible force invading his mind. He quickly activated his mental power to expel this force.
It was indeed very threatening. If Saleen had been attacked by this sound while he was sleeping, he might not have been able to react immediately. Fortunately, this thing only appeared at night. In the morning, when the fog dispersed, it would disappear without a trace.
"Sika, can you deal with this thing?" Saleen was a little worried. Sika had said that she was not afraid of this creature, but now it seemed that this creature had the ability to attack mentally.
"A warrior priestess is of course not afraid of this." Sika did not think much of it. Her eyes could see a few meters in the thick fog, so she realized that these small monsters were too weak.
"Master, this thing smells like the winged skeleton. It might really be from the death dimension." Nailisi's nose twitched. Suddenly, she darted into the thick fog and grabbed the neck of a small monster. She squeezed it hard, then turned and ran back to the magic tower.
Zhi zhi!
Nailisi threw the small monster to the ground. Sika stepped on it and used her cudgel to hit the small monster's head. At the end of the cudgel, a dragon's horn popped out. A cold aura enveloped the small monster, making it unable to struggle.
Saleen smelled an extremely fishy smell. The layer of rust on the surface of the small monster's body had the stench of a dead fish.
Lex threw a Cleaning spell, and a faint magic light enveloped the small monster. The small monster writhed in pain, its short tail whipping the ground desperately.
The fishy smell was mostly dispersed by the Cleaning spell. The surface of the small monster's body looked as if it had been burned for a few hours. Its skin shrank, cracked, and emitted black smoke.
Saleen took a look and was relieved. This thing was indeed afraid of healing spells. Most healing spells were cast instantaneously, lasted for a long time, could be controlled easily, and consumed little energy. Even if this small monster wanted to attack, it would not be able to break through the door of the magic tower. The Cleaning spell was only a level-0 spell, but it could cause such serious damage to the small monster.
This thing was very noisy and could not sleep, so it was very annoying.
"Close the door. Don't sleep tonight." Saleen shook his head helplessly. He asked Nailisi to send this small monster to the sixth floor for Daniel to study.
"It's okay. We can study the alchemy blueprint tonight. I can't do it alone." Lex called Saleen over to her alchemy table.
Saleen also knew that it was not realistic to go out and kill all these small monsters. As long as this island had the slightest connection with the death dimension, the thick fog would continue to create such things. Sika and Nailisi leaned against each side of the door of the magic tower. They could not sleep either. Saleen decided to settle down and study the alchemy blueprint for the ship with Lex.
The alchemy blueprint was laid on top of a magic array. The six corners of the magic array were inlaid with magic nuclei. A white magic light lit up, and a three-dimensional structural diagram appeared on the alchemy blueprint.
"This is a ship?" Saleen looked at the three-dimensional structural diagram and was a little doubtful. This blueprint was too complicated. The core structure in the middle had hundreds of magic formulas, and there were countless materials and alchemy formulas written on it.
"Yes, this is a ship developed by the alchemists of the empire. It was originally intended to be built in Lianyun City. Now, you know that Lianyun City is a little out of control. My uncle does not have the ability to do so."
"Where is the power of this ship?"
"Do you see these eight magic formulas?"
"I see them."
"Wait a minute." As Lex spoke, she moved the alchemy blueprint. The three-dimensional structural diagram in the air immediately changed, and a strange-looking ship appeared in front of Saleen.
This ship looked like an octopus. The front of the ship was oval, and the deck could not be seen. Eight insect-like tails were dragged behind the ship, and they looked more like oars.
"This is a stealth warship. It can swim ten meters below the surface of the water. "The eight magic formulas you see are actually eight magic sequences. In other words, they are disassembled magic arrays that are refined in the eight tails of the ship. The tails can control the direction and can also spray water. This thing was developed by the alchemists of the empire after they dissected the magic beasts in the sea. "
"If this ship is hit, I am afraid that no one on it will survive." Saleen saw the problem with this ship at one glance. It was not rare for a ship to be able to run under the water. The difficult part was that if this ship was used as a warship, not only would it not have any attacking power, but once it was hit by the enemy's magic, the entire ship would not be able to escape.
They could not possibly use these eight tails to attack the enemy. If these eight tails were broken, the ship would lose its ability to move, and the warriors inside would suffocate to death underwater.
"That is why it needs to be modified. There are very few magic spells that can destroy the turtle shell, right?" Lex turned the alchemy blueprint again, showing the internal structure of the magic ship.
