Speeding all the way.
The semi-open compartment allows them to have a full view of the outside scene.
Low and damp dark caves, crooked and twisted wooden huts, tall and solid stone fortresses, and alchemy castles full of bizarre and psychedelic feelings... Along the way, everyone is like stepping into a fantasy city. A strange building with a mysterious taste.
There are people coming and going outside some buildings, which seem very lively. And some buildings are too eerie, few customers come to the door. Some buildings are simply inexplicable, and it is difficult to judge its purpose from the appearance alone...
It can be seen that after the Silver Alliance sells these regions, it will not restrict or interfere with its business content. After you get this area, develop it into a shop, it's up to you! Treat it like a warehouse, whatever you want! Even transform it into a haunted house, it's up to you!
As long as you pay the lease fee on time, and your operation will not harm the interests of Sky City, then no one will interfere with what you do in your own area.
This is probably the main reason why the entire outer ring building is so weird!
Sky City is divided into three parts: the inner ring, the middle ring, and the outer ring, and the areas they occupy are about 1:3:6. Therefore, among the three rings, the area of the outer ring is the largest, and the number of shops sold to non-Silver Alliance members is 348.
This number sounds like a lot, but evenly distributed to the entire Wizarding Continent, it seems like a drop in the bucket.
Especially among them, there are many scary guys who don't belong to any wizard family, and are purely individuals who want to find a place to stay here. Most of these guys are Tier 2 powerful wizards who are unwilling to be restrained by family and organization forces, and there are also Tier 3 powerhouses among them.
So in this outer ring area, if you don't know the basics, you can't mess with any inconspicuous little people or small shops. Once you lose sight and provoke those low-key big shots, they have too many means to avoid the silver-robed wizard and make you die inexplicably.
The alchemy carriage slowly stopped in front of the shop of the Byron family.
"Two magic crystals!" The alchemy steed turned around and spat out human words from the metallic horse's mouth.
Greem was amazed, threw out two magic crystals, they swallowed them in one gulp, and then left calmly.
An apprentice wearing the Byron family badge on his chest was waiting here with a bow, and directly led the three of Greem into the backyard. Most of the shops here also have stores in the front and residential buildings in the back.
Byron material OK!
The name of the shop is concise and to the point. Its main business is some rare resources in the dark crypt, among which ghost mushrooms and night eye stones are the most precious.
Waiting for Greem in the backyard was a middle-aged female wizard with a fair appearance, wearing a strange red robe that looked very eye-catching. But what is more eye-catching is the strength she showed!
When Greem saw her for the first time, he immediately trembled in his heart, and hurried forward to greet her with a wizard's salute.
As for Alice, who has always been fearless, she also took Kirby to hide far away, not daring to listen to the conversation between the two wizards.
"Are you the puppeteer Angus invited? You look very young!" the red-robed witch asked coldly.
"I've met Lady Nunnally! I'm Greem, a wizard belonging to the Sarubo family."
"You don't seem to be a mysterious wizard!"
"Yes, my lord! I am taking the route of an elemental wizard, but I have some uniqueness in making elemental puppets, so I was selected by the Angus wizard during his apprenticeship to participate in this esoteric competition."
"Element puppets? These guys are probably not as good as those carefully crafted metal puppets! Are you sure about this esoteric competition?" Although the red-robed witch is a second-level wizard, she encountered some professional problems. Still seemed hesitant.
"On the way here, Wizard Angus once revealed to me that there seems to be something wrong with the competition..."
"There is no accident!" The red-robed witch replied decisively: "The conditions proposed by the other party are too harsh, and we cannot accept it at all! Therefore, the Upanishad competition will continue. I only ask you now, do you have the confidence to defeat the demons of the other party's family?" Puppet knight?"
"My lord, before answering this question, I hope to know about the opponent's puppet's abilities and basic statistics!" Greem thought carefully, but did not answer directly.
"This is for you!" The red-robed witch threw a picture crystal into Greem's arms, and ordered bluntly: "You have one night to think, and you must give me an answer tomorrow morning. If you are not sure of defeating the opponent , our family had no choice but to find a way to invite a Master of Profound Truth to come over!"
Masters of Profound Truth are just some professional wizards who regard the technique of puppet construction as their own job. Their individual combat power may be poor, but the puppet puppets they create are all extremely powerful.
It is very difficult to invite a profound art master in the sky city! The amount of favors and resources required is simply unimaginable. If the Byron family is really pushed to that point, even if they win the final victory, most of the income of this shop will be handed over to others in the next ten years.
But the importance of this shop to the Byron family is simply incomparable.
In addition to selling resources in the Nigon area to earn huge profits, this shop is also a convenient channel for the Byron family to collect resources from various regions in the Wizarding Continent. Once it is cut off, most of the wizard resources within the family will be lost immediately.
At that time, if the family wants to stably cultivate wizards belonging to their own family, the difficulty will suddenly increase by ten times.
This is undoubtedly not good for the development and growth of a wizard family!
So at this moment, the second-order wizard of the Byron family couldn't help but not be nervous.
That night.
Greem hid in the residence prepared for him by the Byron family, carefully and meticulously browsed through the contents of the picture crystal thrown to him by the red-robed witch.
The image storage crystal is the image of the golem knight of the other family fighting with other golems.
Although the fighting process was very short, it was enough for the chip to analyze a lot of useful information from it.
After watching all the battle details repeatedly, the chip also successfully obtained the approximate data of the Puppet Knight.
Puppet Knight, combat type, activated structure, 3 meters tall, with dark and deep dull metallic luster shining all over his body. In appearance, it is shaped like a knight wearing heavy armor, holding a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. His ability to fight in close quarters is far superior to that of ordinary golems or golems.
Combat basic data: strength>14 agility>9 constitution>12 spirit>7 …
This is a battle puppet that has been strengthened many times. It not only has an indestructible magic iron alloy body, but also has a staggering stalwart strength. But what gave Greem the most headache was its super high fighting instinct and intelligence!
Yes, unexpectedly, a cold, metal puppet made of pure magic iron alloy actually possesses not low elementary intelligence. It would be too contemptuous for such a guy to call it a puppet, and the most appropriate name should be a construct creature.
A constructed creature that has undergone a constructive activation technique and initially possessed human-like intelligence. Of course, if its wisdom can be improved a little bit, so that its mental power can be increased from 7 points to 11 points, then it can immediately leap from a construct creature to a metal life.
A special life form with metal as its body and elemental energy as its blood—metal life!
Constructed creatures still belong to the ranks of wizard servants, while metal life forms are already qualified to be compared with wizards.
It is impossible for an ordinary puppet to have wisdom at all, unless the wizard who made it mixed some kind of powerful spiritual consciousness body when casting the activation technique, so there is a certain probability for it to awaken primary wisdom. However, the more advanced intermediate intelligence cannot be realized by means of witchcraft, and can only be slowly evolved by individuals with elementary intelligence.
In the picture crystal, the puppet knight not only possesses elementary wisdom, but also seems to have retained some knight combat skills. This fully shows that the soul of a high-ranking knight must be activated on the puppet knight's body by the opponent's mysterious wizard.
At least it must be a Tier 2 knight!
And such a powerful knight is very difficult to find in the Wizarding Continent, the only source of soul can only be a certain sub-plane.
Moreover, the opposing family spared no expense when building this puppet knight, and even the shield and sword it held were not ordinary.
The heavy-duty tower shield is mainly made of Mansodar alloy known for its sturdiness, and it is mixed with star iron with anti-magic effect, so it has a terrifying defensive effect on both physical and magical defenses.
And the knight's great sword is purely made of Eternal Gold. Although its hardness is a little worse than that of Mansodar alloy, it has good magic guiding properties, which is convenient for knights to display their combat skills. What's more, the edge of the knight's great sword is also plated with fine gold, which also gives it the primary "destroyed armor" and "sharp" effects.
Not to mention anything else, this pair of sword and shield has reached the level of a primary witch weapon, and it is many times stronger than ordinary magic items!
To be honest, even Greem lost the confidence he had before seeing the terrifying fighting power displayed by the Puppet Knight in the video.
If the puppet knight of the opponent is skinned and boned, all the precious and rare magic gold in the whole body will be extracted, and the basic value will be more than 70,000 magic crystals. If you count the puppeteer's hard work and the soul of the second-level knight to create it, the value can never be lower than 120,000 magic crystals.
And the Tier 2 Molten Core Giant Heart Core consumed by Greem to build the Flame Tyrant was only worth 50,000 magic crystals.
Although Greem didn't want to admit it, from all aspects and angles, it seemed that his Flame Tyrant had lost nothing against that puppet knight.
The two don't need to go to battle, and the difference in their basic combat power can be estimated only from the resources used to build them!
