Sometimes, being simple could be considered an advantage. At least, the simple-minded Silver Bearded Dwarves easily followed Roland's plan and put on the peace armor to fight happily with the other Elves.
But compared to the other three Dwarves who were full of interest, Jermaine was not interested in the beginning. Instead of fighting with the Elves, he was more eager to complete the predetermined work at hand. Because in his eyes, that was the research that could really improve the overall strength of the Silver Bearded Dwarves. There was no point in beating up a few Elves who were rash.
But Roland's words still made the Dwarf jump into the pit happily.
"Instead of thinking about completing the uncontrolled combat mode, which seems to be a distant goal, have you ever thought about using the program to design some auxiliary functions to improve the combat power of the Dwarves wearing the peace armor?"
With this as an opening, Roland put forward some suggestions. This included strengthening the detection function of the peace armor, the combat coordination mode of the legion, the command transmission function, the prediction of the enemy's threats, movements, and so on. It could even assist the movements of the Dwarves wearing the peace armor so that they could cooperate with other Warriors wearing the peace armor.
In other words, the peace armor could be made into a more powerful exoskeleton armor instead of a T-Series Terminator controlled by a program. After all, there was a fundamental difference between the two. Roland wanted to build a robot purely because he was led astray by the Lich.
Among the original functions of the peace armor, the one that Roland criticized the most was the vision inside the full-body helmet. The interior of the peace armor's helmet was very large. Not only could the wearer freely move his neck without restrictions, but the interior also magically used magic to show the outside world to the inside of the helmet so that the wearer's vision would not be hindered.
The advantage of this was that the helmet did not have the two fatal gaps of the eyes and the neck. Because to kill a Warrior wearing full-body armor, one could not use a longsword or a bow and an axe to attack the other party and split open the armor. Instead, one could insert a dagger into the gap of the armor and directly kill the person, especially the eyes and neck. The peace armor of the Silver Bearded Dwarves did not give others this opportunity at all because there was no gap to insert a dagger.
But even with such an advanced helmet that used magic to show the real scene, the way to detect the enemy was still with the naked eye! Even in a dark environment, they still had to rely on the weak dark vision of the dwarves themselves. It was as if they were given a rifle, but they were adorably using it as a stick to hit people. It was such a waste of God's gift.
As for why there was such a large space inside the helmet, it was because the dwarves wanted to protect their hair and beards. There was no need to emphasize it.
In order to realize the automation of the peaceful armed forces, of course, there were certain requirements for external investigation. This was because the program needed to know the external situation before it could carry out the corresponding actions.
Now, a certain someone suggested to integrate this function into the interior of the helmet and change it into information that could be understood by adults. This would be of great help to the wearer. Moreover, in order to test whether these auxiliary functions could really help increase combat power, they needed to verify it in real combat.
Of course, the other functions had to be developed by the dwarves themselves. Other than having a mouth, a certain someone had no other ability.
Then, in terms of testing functions, was there anything more suitable than elves for actual combat testing? Or did they want to experience how the peaceful forces were tortured by the sorcerers?
In response to Lin's suggestion, the Silver Bearded Dwarf, who was originally not interested in fighting elves, became the most enthusiastic one. As long as it could help increase the combat power of the peaceful armed forces, Jermaine would put in the effort to practice and prove it. There was no other reason. The youngest Silver Bearded Dwarf only wanted to prove that he could stand on the achievements of his ancestors, instead of looking at the achievements of his predecessors and lamenting his own incompetence.
After successfully making the dwarves and the elven warriors brought by Ridan the Third, both sides were fully armed and running around the camp all day long. Next, Lin had to solve the problem of the Lich.
Although Fen agreed to Lin's plan, it did not mean that she would obediently put on an act and do boring things. Then, she would pretend that she was busy to attract the attention of the people in the dark. Therefore, Lin's suggestion to her was to use the existing materials to start making preparations for the research of the World Tree.
It could barely be considered a serious matter. Therefore, Fen began to work hard to help her elves and make some things that the elves could not understand. Although she did not do anything high-profile, this Lich had a high-level charm aura. As long as she appeared, she would unconsciously become the center of attention. Even if she left, people would not forget to look at her back or in the direction she went.
As for Lin, he was a male, average-looking, and not very powerful — according to the standards of the Lost Land — he was the kind of human who would be quickly forgotten if he was thrown into a sea of people. Therefore, when the Lich appeared in a high-profile manner, no one paid attention to his movements. Of course, this was a good thing. It was beneficial for Lin's secret operation.
After passing the kitten that was lying on his head to the young king, the first place he wanted to check was the communication magic circle set up in the World Tree. This was one of the few magical achievements of the elves that the humans were envious of.
In the past, the only way for people to achieve instant communication was through the energy pool of the Magic Tower and cast 'Charles's Call.' It was the spell that Lin's Call used when he was in the Tower of the Great Sage. He was often frightened by the big face that appeared on the energy pool of the then president, Orange Eaton. However, the most basic requirement of that spell was to have an energy pool of the same level as the Magic Tower. It was like going to the convenience store at the end of an alley to buy Yakult and specifically buying a Maserati to drive.
In the human world of the Lost Land, there were no other fast and cheap means of communication apart from 'Charles's Call.' However, just because there was no such thing in the human world did not mean that there was no such thing in other races. This was one of the elven spells that the elves had inherited from the old Empire. It could allow multiple parties to talk at the same time. It was regarded as a secret military communication magic circle.
This magic circle did not have a name, but it was not something that spies could carry around with them. It was widely set up in key points of the Elven Kingdom for emergency military information and government orders. Of course, in order to keep it a secret, some self-destruct mechanisms were set up. This was why the human world had not been able to discover the secrets of this elven spell.
It was not until a certain person established a forum that this elven communication magic circle was no longer a target for the human world to spy on. But even so, this communication magic circle was still the main means of communication in the Elven Kingdom.
For example, this time when he came to the World Tree Lahti, after Lin handed over the list of equipment and materials to the elves, it should be transmitted to their capital through this communication magic circle. Then, the capital would collect the required items and send them over.
According to the standard procedure of the elven army, when the items were ready and sent out, they would report that the items had been set off and when they were expected to arrive. This was also to let people be mentally prepared to receive the goods. And when the delivery team did not arrive at the expected time, it would naturally alert both the sender and the receiver.
Although the list of requirements put forward by a certain person did not completely disappear, there was no news of any delivery of some of the more common magic materials. He originally thought that this was due to the difference in material reserves between the human and elven kingdoms, or that the elves were slower.
But when a certain person found out that all the elves' external information was transmitted through the members of the Divine Wood Guards using the communication magic circle. This made him uncontrollably suspicious of the location of the elves' communication magic circle.
The location of the communication magic circle was also confidential, and it was not convenient for a certain person to directly ask Li Ena, "Where exactly is your family's confidential location?" Considering the possibility of a leak, it was safest not to let others directly get too involved. So a certain person very conscientiously carried out his own investigation.
After all, he had seen countless spy movies and played related games. Although there was no such thing as a corrugated box in the mystical land, a certain person still understood some of the basic knowledge. It was nothing more than hiding one's tracks and not making any noise.
Of course, for someone who had not been trained, perfect stealth was not a skill that was so easy to learn. Other things aside, the problem of footsteps alone was enough to baffle a lot of people, even Mages were the same. So, Roland simply used Blink to move. Without walking, there would naturally be no problem with footsteps.
In addition, choosing a hiding place to hide one's tracks was also a skill. The mystical land was similar to Earth, or even more ruthless. On Earth, most of the time, it might just trigger the alarm and then attract a bunch of guards.
But in the mystical land, there were fatal traps waiting for uninvited guests. Flash might be able to solve the problem of footsteps, but the traps that were supposed to be triggered would still be triggered. So Lin still had to be vigilant and not let his guard down.
And in Lahti's territory, the only place where things could be hidden was, of course, the intricate, maze-like buildings on her tree. There was nothing on the flat ground and no place to hide. This was something that a certain person had investigated and confirmed.
He wanted to go to the tree, but he did not bring the real owner of the place, the kitten that Lahti had transformed into. This was because Lin was not sure what role she played in this incident. Did she really know nothing? Or was she being controlled without knowing it? Or perhaps, Lahti was the mastermind behind all of this? No matter which it was, it was safer to hide it from the kitten.
Without anyone noticing, Lin flashed directly to the highest point in his field of vision. It was a thick branch of a certain World Tree. There was a rather large treehouse on it, hidden in the dense foliage. If one did not look carefully from below, it was easy to overlook this big guy.
A certain person suspected that this place had the function of a watchtower, like the monitoring center of some important facilities on Earth. In any case, it should not be a big mistake to come here and take a look first.
