The same situation will become more obvious on high-level mages like Easterlin or Joel. As long as they can pour out all their magic power uninterrupted, they can bury an entire small army alone with uninterrupted spells!
If it is really possible to upgrade the mage tower and the temple as Eslore said, it can bring more high-level spellcasters, or allow existing spellcasters to increase their spellcasting level more quickly, then, This value is not small.
But... Dane thought about it. After he upgraded the mage tower and temple, he still had to spend a lot of money to buy various spell researches, which made him feel like a pain in the ass.
Whether it is magic or divine art, it is really a costly thing, but high-end magic products and high-level mages can play a very important role in a territory. This makes it clear that magic is a high-input, high-threshold thing, but it can be invincible after it is completed.
Don't you see, the Red Moon Magic Empire thousands of years ago was able to directly overthrow the Caesar Empire, which dominated the entire continent, from its most powerful period. It is a pity that the Red Moon Magic Empire was only a flash in the pan. After the Caesar Empire was destroyed, more than a dozen legendary mages of the Imperial Council killed each other, and the Holy See took advantage of the loopholes, and thus perished.
However, even now, the Evert Federation, which inherited a part of the territory of the former Red Moon Magic Empire and called itself the successor of the Magic Empire, sits on the westernmost side of the Orodik continent with a magic civilization that surpasses the entire continent.
They fought against the Holy See for hundreds of years, and after the collapse of the Holy Empire, they also became opponents of the New Caesar Empire for hundreds of years. Later, the New Caesar Empire was over, and now they are fighting against the Holy Prome New Empire. Anyway, these mages are always against the most powerful country in the world, but they have been standing safely for a thousand years, and no one can do anything to the country protected by the mages.
From this, it can be seen that if Dane can really develop the magical civilization of the territory—not just arcane arts, but also divine arts—he will have no opponent in the entire Schindler.
Thinking of this, he decided to go back and raise the level of the mage tower by one round, and the money was spent. As for the temple... still need to think about it.
If Esther knew that Dane decided to upgrade the mage tower after spending a lot of time talking, but she still didn't plan to continue upgrading the temple, she would probably be depressed to death.
However, what she was going to say next, about the benefits that could be obtained after the temple was upgraded, made Dane change his mind all of a sudden.
"Do you still remember when we fought those faceless monsters on the island?"
"Of course, what do you want to say?"
"Do you still remember that we used the heads of those faceless men and the eggs of the faceless men to sacrifice in the temple?"
Dane understood: "Don't you mean that after upgrading the temple, you can make the sacrifices that can be obtained from the gods better?"
"yes."
"Come on." Dane's expression was slightly dissatisfied.
Eslore was a little aggrieved: "Dane, haven't you personally experienced that after offering sacrifices, you can get a lot of benefits?"
"It's true that there are many benefits, but, what do you mean, after upgrading the temple, you still want me to take people to the underground world to fight those faceless people? I'm full to mess with them!"
Dane said this, but his heart was somewhat moved.
He did not forget that when he had just landed on Comilla Island and was almost poor, he would have been in even greater trouble if it hadn't been for those two sacrifices.
Of course, during the first sacrifice, Esther's own self-importance brought in such a disobedient guy as Patience. But it is undeniable that the elven population brought in at that time laid a solid foundation for the early development of Aurinadu. And later, the second sacrifice, a scroll of absolute loyalty contract, was exchanged for a hero and a squadron of elite rangers, which was definitely worth the money. Patience and her elite rangers played a very important role in the subsequent wars.
This also made Dane full of expectations for sacrifices. Imagine that back then he just killed hundreds of Faceless Men and snatched dozens of Faceless Men's Eggs, and the sacrifice he performed would have such a good reward. If, in the underground city of Comilla's underground world, if he breaks through and sacrifices all of them, how much profit will it have
That's a conservative estimate, at least 20,000 Faceless! Not to mention, if he went to the underground world, he was sure that he would be able to harvest even better black crystal veins!
He was excited about it, but he also thought about it calmly.
The Faceless are obviously not ordinary races like humans and elves. A human city with a population of only 20,000 is really easy to break through. If the population of 20,000 is exhausted and four to five thousand soldiers are already in the sky, and if we really want to pull out an army according to this ratio of five to one, the quality can be imagined. With Dane's strength, it is easy to flatten such a city.
But the city of the Faceless...
Dane had dealt with these faceless people before. To be honest, the many faceless people he met and the results of his personal investigation in the dungeon told him that these guys were not easy to mess with. They don't seem to have the term old, weak, sick and disabled, and almost all of them are soldiers. Moreover, the strength of individual soldiers is not weak. It is estimated that soldiers with the level of the garrison army must have three times the numerical advantage to suppress the enemy. What's more, the environment of the underground world, with its intricate terrain and lack of lighting and light, is really not suitable for human armies to fight - nor is it suitable for elves.
Now that he wants to take the initiative to attack those faceless people, he must go all out, and he doesn't know how much loss he will suffer. Use such a loss in exchange for a sacrifice? Dane didn't want to.
According to his thinking, his current situation is not bad. As long as he can get a good record in the next all-out war in Schindler, it is a good thing to keep his current victory. If it is more beautiful, there may be hope to go further.
In this way, he didn't even want to go to the underground world to do things. If the losses in the underground world were too great, how would he deal with Schindler's all-out war
After comprehensive consideration, no matter how great the temptation in the underground world is, he has made up his mind not to touch it. If one is not done well, the benefits will not be reaped much, and it may even cause a show. (To be continued.)
