Lord of Arcane

After a moment, the thick ether fog reappeared in the ice plane, and Helion, wearing a laurel crown, a golden robe, and a scepter, appeared in the training square in front of the palace.

"Hey, didn't Philipfa say he was coming here? Why can't he be seen?"

"Philifa helped us test the spell, and he's here now!"

With that said, Adotim showed Helion the transparent crystal that had previously divided the space and condensed it. Helion couldn't help but frowned when he saw it:

"Crossing the limit of sublimation? Why is this guy so reckless!"

He said that, but Helion knew in his heart that Philifa should do this to verify the effect of the newly developed war spell, and he was angry but also moved at the same time.

"Do any of the elders have a way to save it?"

"Yes, King Mian still needs to take action himself. I and other old men have no spare capacity to treat him."

"It's okay, I'll come!"

With King Mian's consent, Adotim briefly introduced the treatment method. After King Mian tried to confirm that it was correct, he activated the space crystal in his hand.

After a moment, the pale Philifa appeared in front of Helion, and at this time, another elder also reminded him, "I just experienced the dissipation of my soul, so it is best not to engage in high-intensity spell casting in the recent period. "

"what?

Hearing this, Phillipa's already pale face turned pale again, "There will be a big banquet in two days, and I still have a mission to do!"

"You have personally experienced the effects of the new spells developed by several elders. Do you think Ragdus has a chance to escape in this situation?"

The speaker was King Helion. He first affirmed the achievements of several elders, and then made other arrangements, "Furthermore, I will arrange for Haidley or East to take over your previous tasks. In the recent period, Just take a good rest!"

"Yes."

Now that King Mian has made arrangements, Philipar no longer insists. Now seeing that the new spells of several elders are so effective, the unsuspecting Ragdus will have no room for resistance.

It really doesn't make much difference whether he is there or not.

……

After handling Philip's affairs, Helion did not forget the real purpose of coming to the ice plane this time. However, he did not discuss it in the square. Instead, he invited several elders and Philip to come to the square. Inside the palace on the side.

Helion first visited the secret room where several elders developed new spells, then confirmed the material situation of this secret base, and finally went to a terrace on the second floor of the palace to talk with several elders and Philipfa. .

"It seems that the only problem regarding the development of new spells now is supplies, right?"

"Mian Wang Mingjian, the magic network environment of the ice plane itself is not as good as that of the main plane, let alone the development of war spells, which has very high requirements for instantaneous energy supply. The current time and space confinement spell still has the previous foundation, but Even so, most of the resources in stock have been consumed. I wonder what King Mian has planned next?"

Adotimu's meaning was simple, urging Mian Wang to increase investment as soon as possible, otherwise the project to develop new war spells would be handed over to the parliament.

The crown prince and the supporters behind the crown king alone can indeed support this project, but it will definitely be more difficult, and it will also raise a very critical question -

This caused an imbalance in the balance of power among Yeerlan's domestic camps.Adotim is not an opponent of Helion, but in terms of closeness, he is actually not that close, at least not as close as a die-hard supporter like Philifa.

Now that Adotim has raised this issue, Helian often thinks about it, whether to invest alone or transfer the project to the parliament.

The benefits of investing alone are obvious. It can greatly increase one's own combat effectiveness. The disadvantages are also obvious. This will cause tension in the parliament and even an arms race, which will seriously waste domestic resources.

However, Helion was unwilling to hand over the project directly to the parliament, not because of the resources invested in the early stage, but because it seemed that he was afraid of the parliament.

"Let's discuss this matter after Midwinter!"

Helion hesitated for a moment, but still did not give an answer on the spot, "You have worked hard during this period, the elders. In the next two days, the elders can return to Taivi Mansa. Although the main purpose of this grand banquet is to capture La Gedus, but the specifications are still exactly the same. After this break, there are still important tasks that we need to rely on the elders!"

"It's okay. I haven't been back to Tevi Mansa for a while. I just want to go back and relax this time. This ice plane is still too deserted."

……

Helion and Philipar did not return to the main plane with several elders, but left first.

The main plane, the palace of Taivimansa, and the study of King Mian.

Just after returning here, before he could sit down, Philipar couldn't help but say, "It's just some gems. Several elders thought they could control His Majesty. Now who doesn't know that Netheril can produce arcane crystals in large quantities? As long as you can get a Mythra device, a few gems are nothing!"

"Philifa, you!"

Helian forcibly pulled Philifa to sit next to him, and then explained: "I haven't thought about handing over this project to the parliament yet, but the energy gem is indeed a big problem."

The elves' war weapons have certain requirements for their users. The weaker the spellcasting ability, the more energy is needed. However, even if they are all used by high-level mages, they can only guarantee the speed and cannot reduce consumption.

The main reason is that there is a limit to the instantaneous energy output of the Magic Network, but war spells do not necessarily have a limit. If the energy supply limit of the Magic Network is exceeded, additional supplements are needed.

"You said Mythra, but is Netheril willing to hand over this kind of artifact-like existence to us? Even if it is the arcane crystal produced by Mythra, Netheril is already consciously controlling the outlet of the arcana crystal. Although there is no way to obtain it, are you willing to let the Nese people take advantage of it?"

"I don't want to!" Philipfa said subconsciously.

"Currently, the domestic gem-producing areas are mainly concentrated in the northwest mountainous areas. Think about whose territory there is. Only by borrowing the name of the parliament can you obtain the cheapest gems. You should admit this, right?"

Helion did not mention that gems can also be mined in the elemental plane controlled by his family, which may even be richer than the gem mines in the northwest mountains.

But this cannot change the reality that all gemstones in Yeerland currently come from mining deposits.

"Simply mining gems will not last long. Minerals will eventually be exhausted. Even if they continue to be mined, the difficulty of mining will continue to increase. As for discovering elemental planes rich in gems, think about how many we have discovered in the past countless years. A new dimension? This is simply unstable and difficult to use to support the development of a country."

"What does Prince Mian mean?"

"Of course what I mean is to give priority to acquiring Mythra, and the second is to develop our own energy core. Of course, we are not short of ordinary energy cores. What we lack is large energy cores that can quickly convert gems and corresponding transformation spells. "(End of chapter)
