"Look! Geothermal! Natural, endless energy!"

Jose pointed to the crimson lava in the depths of the deep pit, and the breath of sulfur penetrated his nostrils. He was excited and continued: "The power of the elements in the center of the earth is endless, and a magic tower hanging upside down will be built here, so that the power of the center of the earth will be I use it!"

As he said, the power of the earth's center is endless. If he can really build an upside-down magic tower to connect to the earth's center, then he will be able to obtain a steady stream of energy supplements in the capital. This energy is greater than [Phoenix Heart] , more durable.

Coupled with the [Fire Elemental Barrier] and the many powerful magics that the red dragon itself knows, even the legendary mage has to go around.

At that time, the rule of the Fusai Kingdom will be impregnable.

On the side, Olivia didn't know the specific plan of the Red Dragon, but she still felt unclear and expressed her sincere admiration.

"Okay, I have to start work, you can do it yourself."

Nodding to the green dragon, Jose folded his wings on both sides of his body and plunged into the huge pothole.

The body fell at an accelerated rate, and the cave walls on both sides quickly passed by. He plunged into the lava, splashing a very small amount of "splashes".

After sinking some distance in the lava, Jose floated up, emerged from the bubbling lava, and looked around.

This is a small underground space, and the lava has corroded the rock formations above it into pits. However, since the green dragon has taken a lot of lava to make obsidian building materials, the "water level" of the lava has dropped a lot.

Jose looked at the bowl-sized exit above, thinking about it.

During the landing process just now, he turned on [Data Visualization], and calculated that the surface is 54 kilometers away from the surface of the lava.

In other words, the upside-down magic tower he is about to build is 54 kilometers long.

This is a big project!

Jose couldn't complete such a large project by himself. He quickly uttered the spell, and a portal was formed above the lava.

Summon fire elementals!

"Follow the covenant, Hornastead answers your call!" Accompanied by the buzzing tone with its own echo, Lord Fire Elemental came out across the boundary.

The lower body of the upside-down tornado stood above the lava lake. He looked around, as if he was about to fight, and turned to the red dragon with a head emerging from the lava: "Oh~, my friend, what can you do if you summon me? ?"

"My friend, I need your help."

Jose continued: "I want to build a magic tower connected to the center of the earth. I need some helpers, and it must be completed within three months, because three months later is the day I chose for the founding of the country."

"Three months?"

"impossible!"

Hornasted looked up at the sky, looked at the coin-sized exit, and frowned: "Jose, this project is too large. Even if I summon all my subordinates, it will take at least three years!"

"Don't worry, my friend, I will solve the manpower problem, but I need your cooperation."

"No problem, if I can do it."

Jose nodded: "You just need to help me guide the summoned fire element. As you are an elemental noble, it is easy to do this."

Honasde looked at the red dragon soaked in the lava, his heart moved, and he roughly understood the red dragon's plan: "Genius idea! Let me help you!"

"Come out! My servants!"

In an instant, a large number of portals appeared on the surface of the lava lake, and many fire elements crossed out.

So many fire elements exist in Tidanor, all consumed is the magic power of the red dragon.

Jose suddenly felt that the elemental energy in his body was like an open river embankment, passing away quickly, but in the lava lake, the elemental magic power was constantly replenished.

But this is not enough.

He turned on [Phoenix Heart], and the turbulent elemental flames burst out from the gaps between the scales, and the temperature of the surrounding lava became higher and higher, rapidly turning golden red.

In the state of [Phoenix Heart], his fire elemental affinity has risen sharply, his spellcasting ability has been greatly improved, and the efficiency of absorbing energy has also been greatly improved. In addition, he is in the lava, and the surrounding fire elemental energy is extremely rich. The fire element has no pressure.

The Fire Element Calls!

In an instant, another large group of fire elements appeared on the surface of the lava lake.

However, these fire elementals are obviously different from the fire elementals under Hornasted. They are much smaller in size because they are all elementary fire elementals.

Obviously, the red dragon traded quality for quantity and summoned more helpers.

Before it was over, Jose continued to chant the incantation.

The Fire Element Calls!

Another large group of fire elementals appeared on the surface of the lava lake.

Ten minutes later, the fire elementals were shoulder to shoulder, densely packed the entire lava lake, and there were more than five thousand fire elementals.

Feeling that the absorption of elements and the consumption of elements had reached a balance, Jose looked at Hornaster, the Lord of Fire Elements, and nodded.

Hornasted understood, the tiger's body shook, and he said loudly: "Start work!"

With the order of Lord Elemental, many fire elements started working together, and one after another fireballs blasted towards the stone wall above.

Boom boom boom!

There was a huge sound, and the stones fell into the lava lake below, melting continuously as they sank.

With the casting of spells by the elements, Jose suddenly felt the energy in his body drop a bit, and he didn't dare to focus on two things any more. He concentrated on absorbing the energy of the fire element in the lava to provide the energy for the fire elements to act.

In the sky above the red dragon, the fire elemental lord protected the red dragon from falling rocks while commanding the elements.

As an elemental aristocrat, Lord Fire Elemental commanded the elements more smoothly than the summoner of the Red Dragon. All the elements were in step with each other and worked together to open up the underground space.

Of course, the Fire Elements did not bomb indiscriminately, but obeyed Hornasted's command, and Hornasted carried out according to the plan given by the Red Dragon.

Time passed day by day.

A month later, a huge inverted cone-shaped underground space took shape, which looked like a huge ice cream as a whole.

At the opening above the ice cream, a rock layer thickness of more than 1,000 meters was deliberately left, and the rock layer was reinforced with magic to prevent the surface city from collapsing.

It is also worth mentioning that in the process of developing ice cream, a closed large-scale Underdark was dug out, but this large Underdark is relatively barren, with exposed rocks everywhere, and only some small animals survive. Deliberately conquer.

Looking at the vast space above, Jose felt tired, satisfied and proud at the same time.

In the entire Tidanor, even legendary mages are not enough to maintain such a large number of elemental corps, let alone command the elemental corps to build such a large-scale project.

After thanking Lord Fire Element, Jose lifted the summoning magic, and the entire underground space became quiet all of a sudden.

The red dragon stared at the huge underground space alone. Due to the rough development process, the surface of the rock wall was full of bumps and holes, so it could not be used directly.

But it doesn't matter, you can use the elementary magic - [fossil into mud] to level it.

However, Jose is so tired right now that his eyelids are fighting.

"You Gou! You bring all the garrison mages to the new capital..."

After arranging the task, Jose closed his eyes, rested on his back on the surface of the lava lake, and fell asleep after closing his eyes for a while.

It's been a week since I woke up again.

Jose opened his eyes, feeling refreshed, turned over on the lava lake, looked around, and saw Ergo leading thousands of mages busy in the ice cream-shaped space.

These mages are mainly the first-price mages, using [Fossils to Mud] to level the stone walls of the underground space, and nearly half of the project has been completed now.

"Master, you're awake." Seeing the red dragon waking up from sleep, You Gou flapped the dragon wings on his back and flew over with joy on his face.

The dragon wings behind it are high-level magic-dragon wings.

But it seems a bit different...

Staring at the family members carefully, Jose's eyes lit up: "Very good! You dog! You really didn't disappoint me!"

At this time, the kobold was already a master-level dragon vein warlock, and became the first mage under the Red Dragon to step into the master level, which made the Red Dragon very happy.

Ergou was also very happy: "Thanks to the master, I cast spells many times on the way to perform the task, and suddenly broke through."

"Not bad, but don't be proud, try to raise the mage level to the master level as soon as possible."

"I will," after a pause, Ego continued: "Master, I have a hunch that we are not far from breaking through to the mage level. It seems that the improvement of the dragon vein warlock level has further strengthened the dragon veins in my body and shaken the bottleneck of the master level mage. .”

Jose nodded, and looked at the kobold with approval. The reason why the kobold can improve so quickly is not only the guidance and material support of the red dragon, but also the efforts of the kobold itself.

Of course, there is also an element of luck.

For example, Luna Bloodfeather, a member of the harpies who had already stepped into the high-level ranks, was stuck on the threshold of the master rank, and had not been able to break through for a long time. On the contrary, a warrior from the kobold clan and the jackal clan broke through. Master level, and now there is an Ergou.

"That's right, strive to break through before the founding of the country and become a double master..."

After encouraging his family members, Jose thought for a while, and took out the [Stand of Lurence] that he carried with him. This staff from the Red Nest War accompanied him through the most difficult time and played an important role .

But as the strength of the red dragon increases, the enemy becomes stronger and stronger, and the [Rod of Lurence] can no longer play a big role, and it only has commemorative value to keep on it.

At this time, he planned to give this highly commemorative magic wand to the most trustworthy family member.

However, the strongest magic of [Rod of Lurence] is high-level, and it is a bit mismatched to give it to a master-level kobold mage.

But Jose has a way.

Holding the staff in his hand and looking at it, he made up his mind and took out a dragon scale. This scale looks exactly the same as a normal scale, but it is fundamentally different, because it is a piece of inverse scale that comes off naturally.

"Stay away."

Er Gou flapped his wings and flew away from the red dragon as instructed.

Jose activated [Phoenix Heart], the flames on his body soared, and then he uttered the spell quickly, and the fire elemental energy in the lava pool continuously gathered on him.

Under the support of the invisible elemental force, [Lurence's Rod] and Nilin slowly lifted into the sky together, and finally the double stars rotated in the sky.

The tone of the spell in the red dragon's mouth became more and more serious, and the spell resounded throughout the underground space, and a large amount of fire elemental power poured into the two. With the influx of fire elemental energy, the crimson reverse scale became more and more red.

Finally, when the critical value was reached, the reverse scale melted into a delicate crimson liquid, following the will of the red dragon, it adhered to the surface of [Lurence's Rod] according to certain rules, forming peculiar patterns and emitting stronger magic at the same time Emmanuel.

After a period of time, the elemental fluctuations on the red dragon gradually subsided, and the [Rod of Lurence] slowly fell, and landed in the claws raised by the red dragon.

Jose stared at the staff in his hand. Compared with the original, there were some golden and red lines on the surface of this staff, which was gorgeous and elegant.

Compared with the beauty of the appearance, the internal changes of the staff are the most important.

There were originally five magics in [Rod of Lurence], two high-level magics, [Blast Flame] and [Meteor Fire Rain], and three middle-level magics, all of which were [Fireball].

This point has not changed, but the red dragon blessed this staff with massive fire elements and the real name of the dragon, which made the magic more powerful and reached the master level. According to the current situation, the name of the magic should be changed to: [Blast Flame · Dragon's Blessing], [Meteor Fire Rain · Dragon's Blessing]and [Fireball · Dragon's Blessing].

Not only that, but the Red Dragon also used Ni Lin as the raw material to add another magic to the staff - [Shield of Vigilance].

[Shield of Vigilance] can be automatically triggered when the user encounters danger. It is the most difficult automatic trigger type of protective magic to enchant. killed.

"Yougou, come here."

Seeing the serious expression of the red dragon, You Gou realized what was about to happen, excited and moved at the same time, flapped his wings and flew over.

Even though most of the red dragon's body is immersed in the lava, the exposed part is still much larger than the kobolds, facing each other with a master and a servant.

Jose looked down at the kobold family in front of him: "You have followed me for more than 30 years,... I give you this staff today. I hope you can continue to make progress and make greater contributions to my country."

[Rod of Lurence] flew out of the red dragon's hand and fell into the hands of the kobold family members.

Touching the staff that was still warm, Er Gou became more and more excited and moved.

Soon, he controlled his emotions.

In the crowd of many garrison mages, Ergou knelt down on one knee and said firmly: "Master, without you, there would be no Ergou today. I will do my best to serve my master until death!"

Jose nodded, flapped his wings and flew up into the sky, towards the surface.

He summoned the fire element to expand the underground space, and slept for another week. He hadn't eaten for more than a month, so of course he was going to have a full meal now.

When the red dragon arrived, the halfling chef who had received the news in advance had already prepared the food.

After feasting, the red dragon, who was full of wine and food, did not stay, and returned to the underground space again.

Looking at the huge ice cream-shaped space where the prototype has been completed, he couldn't help feeling the urge to do something big.
