sparkling water
This name seems to have connected some memories deep in the brain.
Garen only felt a sharp pain in his head, as if some scenes kept flashing in his mind.
Those pictures are distant and blurred, as if they are not his personal memory at all.
"It's the genetic information of the nine-headed dragon." He walked to the side and sat down slowly under the plum blossoms.
The memory of the nine-headed dragon still interferes with his state from time to time, but it has eased a lot compared to before. Just a little sore now and then.
Garen stretched out his hand to press the cold stone table in front of him. The cool surface was extremely smooth, and the hard texture gave him a real feeling of touching a real entity.
I don't know how long it took, but the pain finally eased.
Garen put down his hand and took a deep breath.
"The shining water appeared. It seems that the collapse of the royal alliance is getting closer and closer. The shining water has the effect of promoting the evolution of low-level totem masters and extremely powerful healing effects, but the output is surprisingly small. In the original history, Kewei Tania has a Shining Pool, Tannia has two, Ennett has one, and there are three scattered across other areas. This thing is the real trigger for the collapse of the Royal Alliance."
In the original history, the Shining Water had a powerful special effect. Although a pool can only produce enough for ten people a year, and it only has an evolutionary effect on low-level totem masters, this has also triggered conflicts among many forces. internal conflicts.
Because of the rampant monsters, there were disagreements within the royal alliance, and internal strife was caused by the ability of Shining Water. Perhaps there was a conspiracy of the Black Sky Society, but it was undeniable that most of it was because the alliance itself was not strong enough.
And it was at this time that Tanya's side also underwent drastic changes because of the Shining Water. The totem of the evil god king who was defeated and suppressed by this king of Tania head-on and became incomplete, has a tendency to heal his injuries under the treatment of the shining water.
The king of Tania, who pursued absolute power back then, challenged masters everywhere, and even challenged the totem of the evil god in the country. Originally, the evil king did not pay attention to him, but his speed of becoming stronger was too fast.
By the time the Evil God King noticed something was wrong, it was too late. Tanya King was so talented that he had reached an extremely powerful state. He had fought with the Evil God King for hundreds of years, and finally in one chance he severely injured the Evil God King and got opportunities to stabilize the country and develop the country.
However, due to the operation of the evil gods for thousands of years, the headquarters of the evil god religion is strong, and the two sides barely maintain a balance.
The appearance of the shining water hastened the recovery of the evil king, and a new internal war in Tania was about to begin again.
Garen thought carefully, now that Kuwaitan exists in name only, and there is only such a small area around the imperial capital left, which can be regarded as a heavy casualty. Then came Tanya, and finally Ennett.
Tanya is different from Kuwaitan, the power of the evil gods and the royal family is the top terror existence no matter which one. The Heitian Society would not rashly mess with this behemoth when the ghost gate was not awakened.
This time the shining water appeared, and Garen realized that this was a good opportunity.
The importance of shining water to other people is far less than that of the evil god king. It has a huge demand for shining water. As long as i occupies a pool, it can use this as a basis to bargain with the evil god religion and obtain benefits .
Moreover, Garen vaguely felt that the shining water seemed to help him restore the memory of the nine-headed dragon. The headache just now came without warning, and it must not be without reason.
Garen tapped lightly on the stone table with his fingers. Thinking about how to get more benefits for himself and develop his own strength before the royal family collapses. Not to mention overcoming the ghost gate, at least one must ensure one's own safety.
call..
He let out a long breath, and was about to stand up and go back to the palace, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone sitting beside him.
It's a child.
He is holding a red plum in his hand, and he is constantly rubbing the flower branch with both hands, turning it around, having fun.
"What are you doing here?" Garen was almost used to children's disappearance.
"I have nothing to do... I just found something new, so I came here." The child replied bored.
"New discovery?"
"Yes, you have to remember to protect me." The child said with a smile.
Garen was speechless, this kid is not doing his job as a whole, just wandering around and playing around, his own strength is mysterious, what protection does he need? Seeing that he didn't want to say anything for the time being, he didn't ask any more questions.
He got up and walked towards the inner hall, had lunch with Lala and Bai Lan who came to hang out, and chatted for a while. In the afternoon, the situation of the Shining Water mine was sent back again.
"So, although the mine is occupied now, half of the sparkling water in it has been taken by someone?" Sitting on the high seat, Garen frowned and looked at the guards outside the Black Ze Palace who reported below.
"Yes, the two elders of Wuguang Kongqin have already dispatched to pursue. Elder Tiannv and Elder Blizzard are guarding the Shining Pool." The guard quickly replied.
Garen glanced at the masters sitting on both sides of the hall.
Ephesis still had a face of indifference and put the long sword on his knees, said nothing, his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was resting, and he didn't listen to the guard's report at all.
The Pagoda Master Anjade of the Seven Nights Pagoda was yawning again and again, his eyes were full of dark circles, as if he hadn't slept for an unknown amount of time.
Below are Lala, the director of the Black Ze Palace, Marcilan and Aideni, the chief guards of the family, and the three disciples of Ephesis from the Silver Palace. There is also Master Klingan who just arrived from the Technology Hall.
Garen frowned and looked at Master Klingan.
"Master, over there at the Technology Hall"
Klingan nodded and stood up. "We can send a workshop master to bring the latest spell formation to rush there. The thrusting thorn formation we have developed is based on the original palace phantom formation, which has been simplified and modified. It is at the second level, and the alert The range is two kilometers in diameter."
"A type-two magic array?" Garen nodded. "It's enough as a warning spell array, and it's just a carry-on item, but what if you want a high-level magic array?"
Clint shook his head.
"I'm sorry, palace lord, but the amount of rare resources required for a type-two or higher spell formation requires at least ten layout workshop masters. With the strength of our current technology hall, the research progress will be seriously affected. "
"Forget it." Garen shook his head.
"Palace Master, aren't there three sets of large-scale aura formations in the separate art formation library?" Kelin'an reminded.
Garen also remembered that the most valuable and practical thing in the royal palace's treasury were these three sets of large aura formations, with a range of more than ten kilometers in diameter, which could prevent all totem masters below aura from entering. It is indeed a very good defensive array. These three sets of things are also the most valuable things in the entire treasure house, apart from the secret treasures brought out by Garen himself.
"Among the three sets of formations, the ten-turn ring is intended to be placed in the entire palace area." Klin'an explained, "The other two sets are to be used to lay out the inner formations of the formations to protect the technology hall and the living inner hall. There is another set that can be used to guard the Shining Pool."
Garen nodded thoughtfully.
"This is not bad."
Clint continued.
"Actually, if we can get more helpers and resources, the strength of our Technology Hall will be improved even more. I heard that Master Ravel of Ennett is skilled in the magic circle." He started to give Garen Click the list to pull people.
After all, he is not a person who specializes in the study of spell arrays, and his achievements in this area are not strong.
"Ravel from Ennett?" Garen stroked the stubble on his chin, "Lala, you can contact the waiter to invite this master."
"But Ennett's situation is very stable now, and this master is a national treasure, so I guess the success rate is very low." Lala explained.
"It's okay, just leave a seed." Garen said indifferently, and then he looked towards Maxilan. "How are my disciples doing now?"
Maxilan got up and answered respectfully.
"The three disciples have already entered the first floor, and now I have passed on the true skills of the second floor. The rest of the disciples have also recorded and rewarded them according to the time they entered."
The conditions in the palace area where the disciples lived were very harsh. This was also to hone their willpower. They ate and drank special nutritious meals, which were rich in nutrition, but the taste was appalling.
All that can be eaten is a genius in taste.
In order to adjust the taste to an indescribable level, Garen also specifically asked Lala to recruit chefs from the entire imperial capital to cook the most unpalatable meals without affecting nutrition.
The sleeping environment is also the hardest stone bed, and there are only ten quilts. Whoever ranks higher is entitled to enjoy it.
Now the progress of the practice has also come out. According to the records, only those who rank high are eligible to receive treatment to improve their diet, and they can barely get three meals that are not too bad. Of course, in order to get a normal-tasting nutritious meal, they need more effort.
Some people may have tried not to eat, but when they were locked in the palace and could not go out, they could only starve if they did not eat these things. Moreover, this kind of nutritious meal is well-balanced, and it also has a slight improvement effect on physical fitness. People who eat it will slowly progress faster than ordinary people.
Garen was quite satisfied with the progress of the three master disciples. As for the rest of the disciples, he didn't care too much. Only the top rankings deserved his attention. And the speed of the first level doesn't mean anything. The first level of Black Water True Kung Fu is the easiest, but the second level is different. To reach the second level, you need to do resistance training in the middle, special medicine, and it depends on your physical fitness. With perseverance and understanding, in a short period of time, two or three months do not need to consider someone's breakthrough. The further you get to the back, the harder it is to break through. The second level is a threshold, the qualifications that can break through are good, and those who can't break through may be delayed for more than ten years.
Garen thought about it.
"How is the recruitment of peripheral totem masters?"
"There are already two totem masters of the Emmanuelization level who have come here admiringly. There are fifteen other totem masters of the third type and a few of the second type." Lala replied.
"The second type is sent to maintain the operation of the palace area operation array, and the third type is scattered into the guard team, led by Edney and Marcilan temporarily. After a month of adaptation, the internal qualifying competition will be held. The first-strength one will automatically become the leader of the guard team. .”
The palace area is divided into two guards, male and female, responsible for the security of some public areas. Due to lack of manpower, they are temporarily managed by Maxilan and Edney. However, they are the captains of the family guards and have their own management affairs. The Terry Jones family Now that the power is growing and the assets are increasing, they are also in a hurry.
So Garen gave them the right to promote their personnel. After promoting a few trusted experts, they finally felt a little easier.
"Then what about the two aura totem masters?" Lara asked.
"Let them be temporarily responsible for the daily life management of the elders in the palace area. Set up a separate elder hall management department, and slowly recruit people to expand."
