The Elemental Pool technology was actually an energy supply device in the early days of the Arcane Empire. Since the emergence of the Mise energy core, the Elemental Pool technology had gradually been converted to civilian use.
It used the Elemental Channel technology, which poured the energy of the four major elemental planes into the Elemental Pool through the principle of Elemental Siphoning. The Elemental Pool technology was mature. Although the energy efficiency was not high, there was no need to worry about exhaustion. As long as the Elemental Pool was not damaged, it could continue to operate for thousands of years without being damaged.
In many relics of the Arcane Empire, the magic constructs could still operate normally after thousands of years. A large part of the reason was that the Elemental Pool continued to provide energy.
Hathaway built the Elemental Pool on the third underground floor. It was the energy center of the Wizard Tower. Through the energy channel, it could complete the transmission of magic and transmit the energy in the Elemental Pool to the inside of the Wizard Tower. Magical crystals were the most cost-effective material for making energy channels.
As a matter of fact, the ancient arcanists were able to obtain large amounts of magic crystals cheaply by breeding crystal beasts. This was something that the wizards of today could not compare with. After all, not everyone could afford to cover an entire wizard tower with magic crystals.
The third underground floor of the Wizard Tower.
Hathaway had made a circular pool with a diameter of 20 meters in the Wizard Tower. The pool was located in the center of the Wizard Tower. The surrounding ground was paved with white marble blocks. These marbles had been treated with magic. They were hard and durable and had a good insulation effect.
The depth of the pool was 1.5 meters. The whole body was piled with marble. After the piling was completed, all the marbles were connected into a whole body using Stone to Mud, and then solidified with Mud to Stone. There was also a layer of Thorium coating on the surface of the marble.
Thorium was a substitute for Mithril. Its nature was similar to Mithril, but the effect was much worse. The whole pool was coated with a layer of Thorium. Next, Hathaway needed to use Mithril to engrave a super-large energy gathering array in the pool.
This process alone consumed a lot of magic materials. Although the value of Thorium was not as high as Mithril, it was still very expensive. A full layer of Thorium consumed two hundred pounds of Thorium, which was worth two hundred Kinnar. In addition to the Mithril used to engrave the runic array, only the rich could afford it.
Next, various magic materials needed to be added to the Elemental Pool. Arcane dust and Astral dust needed to be integrated into it to reduce the consumption of energy conversion. After these materials were perfectly integrated into the Elemental Pool, the basic structure of the Elemental Pool was completed.
Of course, this project was not made by Hathaway alone. Everyone in the Wizard Tower, including Suhlen, was involved. It took them three days to complete the construction of the Elemental Pool.
After completing the Elemental Pool, the work was only half done. Next, he still had to engrave four Runic Magic Circles that connected the four major Elemental Planes.
Hathaway took out a silver-white carving knife and carefully engraved the runes in the four directions of the Elemental Pool. The Elemental Extraction and Transmission Circle was very complicated. A slight mistake would result in failure and a new one would be needed. After Hathaway was done, she summoned a ball of Elemental Fire and controlled it to melt a piece of Mithril. She then used the Wizard's Hand to merge the melted Mithril into the rune circle.
Hathaway was the only one who could do this. After all, she was the only Master Alchemist in Northern Town City. After the construction was completed, Hathaway built a platform about one meter wide in the center of the Elemental Pool. She then engraved a complex Runic Magic Circle on the platform. In the center of the Runic Magic Circle, a diamond the size of an egg was integrated into it.
Next, four magic gems were needed to replace the Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Fire gems. Four magic gems of the same quality and size were integrated into the four corners of the Elemental Pool.
As the gems were integrated, the entire Elemental Pool shook slightly. Then, traces of strange energy appeared in the Elemental Pool. At the same time, Hathaway, Karina, Alex, and Grace stepped forward and stood on the Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind Elemental Runic Magic Circles.
A powerful Elemental Energy appeared in the surroundings. This Elemental Energy wrapped around the four of them in an orderly manner and lifted their bodies into the air.
The melodious and mellow Nesser language echoed. This was a spell used to communicate with the four elemental planes. As the voice echoed, generation after generation of silver elemental energy rose, and four complex runic arrays appeared on the bodies of the four people. Soon after, the space of the entire third floor of the Wizard Tower began to shake. In the next second, four spatial cracks appeared on the runic arrays beside the four people.
Looking through the distorted spatial cracks, one could see the deep blue sea, the boundless sky, the thick and solid earth, and the world of flames burning the sky behind the spatial cracks. These four cracks were connected to the Four Great Elemental Planes. As soon as they appeared, abundant Elemental Energy appeared in the four Runic Magic Circles. Then, the four Elemental Energy poured into the platform in the center of the Elemental Pool.
After the Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind Elemental Energy underwent a strange fusion, azure spring water flowed down from the platform. It was the Elemental Energy that had condensed into liquid form.
Following the appearance of the Elemental Water, the four spellcasters sighed in relief. As the Elemental Energy stabilized, the four Elemental Channels slowly disappeared. However, the Elemental Energy continued to appear and fuse with the Elemental Water, appearing in the Elemental Pool.
The Elemental Pool was successfully built. At the same time, the Elemental Water started to appear in the Elemental Pool. The concentration of Elemental Energy in the entire third floor of the underground floor started to rapidly increase. In less than ten minutes, the concentration of Elemental Energy had increased by several times.
The Elemental Pool made by Hathaway could hold two million degrees of energy. It could support the consumption of the entire Elemental Pool and also support the daily consumption of a large Golem Legion.
Naturally, the cost of such an Elemental Pool wasn't low. Just the cost of the materials was more than a million Kinnar.
The existence of the Elemental Pool transformed the entire Wizard Tower into a place of active Elemental Energy. Within the range of the Wizard Tower, all spellcasters' mana recovery speed would be accelerated, their meditation efficiency would increase, the difficulty of casting spells would be reduced, and their mana consumption would be reduced.
[Elemental Pool (Large): Current Status: Charging. Current Energy: 100,000/2,000,000. Changed Environment: Land of Elements. Casting Difficulty -20%. Casting Consumption -20%. Mana Recovery + 50%. Meditation Efficiency + 25%.]
The Elemental Pool would change this area into a Land of Elements. Living in such an environment would have many benefits. Different environments would promote the evolution of creatures in different directions. According to some books and records left behind by Arcanists, some Floating-Space Cities that entered the Astral Plane had evolved into a subspecies of humans because they had lived in the Astral Plane for a long time. The humans in the Floating-Space Cities had lived in the Astral Plane for a long time.
This kind of Astral Plane Humans had a longer lifespan than ordinary humans. Moreover, talented Astral Plane Humans would awaken some spiritual talents or master some spell-like energy. These people were born as Psionicists and could easily become Wizards.
Of course, living in such an environment for a long time would also cause some problems. For example, after appearing in some areas where Elemental Energy was scarce, these Astral Plane Humans would not be able to adapt. It was like a fish out of water. Although it would not be life-threatening, their spellcasting ability would basically be crippled. In serious cases, they would even develop symptoms of Magic Addiction.
Of course, after adapting for a while, these problems would disappear. Therefore, Astral Plane Humans did not like to enter the material plane.
Although the Land of Elements was rich in Elemental Energy, this situation would not occur. After all, the concentration of Elemental Energy could not be compared to the Astral Plane. Moreover, because the Astral Plane was not bound by the rules of the material plane, human souls could have deeper contact with this kind of energy. In fact, Astral Plane Humans evolved from the soul, not from the body.
After the construction of the elemental pool was completed, the construction of other areas in the Wizard Tower began. There was a treasure room, a prison, a living room, a guest room, a library, a bedroom, a laboratory, a meditation room, a console, a control center, a runic barrier, a training ground, a warehouse, a war room, a golem army, and an ecological garden.
Many facilities needed to be built. Among them, areas such as the living room, guest room, bedroom, library, and these were built very quickly. However, the construction of some areas was much more difficult. For example, the ecological park. Suhlen intended to learn the construction method of the Secret Realm and build one of the floors of the Wizard Tower into an ecological park.
This ecological park would use Space Folding and Space Expansion technology. This technology could expand a one-story Wizard Tower that was originally only about 2000 square meters by ten times or even a hundred times. Then, Space Folding technology would be used to place this ecological park in the Wizard Tower.
Hathaway was not very familiar with Space Folding and Space Expansion technology, so she did not directly use it in the Wizard Tower. If there was a problem with this kind of spell, the consequences would be very serious. Suhlen did not want his newly built Wizard Tower to be broken or tilted.
Only after he was familiar with it would Suhlen use this technology in the Wizard Tower. After the Wizard Tower had an ecological park, many special experiments could be carried out. Other than the ecological park, the laboratory and meditation room in the Wizard Tower were also very important.
These two places needed to be isolated with rune circles. No matter if it was an experiment or meditation, it was taboo to disturb. If there was a problem, the consequences would be very serious. The rest of the places, such as the treasure room and the prison, also needed to be strictly protected. The construction of the entire Wizard Tower was progressing very slowly.
Such a huge Wizard Tower, with 10 floors and 120 meters, had an area of 30,000 square meters. It would take a lot of time to only rely on four Wizards. Laying the energy channel in the entire Wizard Tower was not a small project.
