Chapter 68: The Story of the Magic Boundary!

Chapter 68: The Story of the Magic Boundary!

"It's nothing, it's just that last time I put you through the trouble of getting me a granary, and this time I want you to" Carlos was saying.

  "Lord Priest, I just did a big job and my magical energy hasn't recovered yet, now I'm more than capable!"

  Before Carlos could finish, Eranster rushed to say.

  "Huh?

  What are you talking about?

  I was asking you to teach me how to construct a magical boundary, I'll do it myself, you can just teach me a little."

  Carlos didn't understand what Eranster was talking about, it was just a matter of teaching, it wasn't like he was some mentally challenged retarded person with some kind of intellectual deficiency, so how was it that his heart was in the right place?

  "Oh!

  ~♪ Originally. ♪ I thought," Elancthon realized that he had overthought things. I thought," Eranster then realized that he had overthought things just now, the scene was a bit awkward, and Eranster's speech was broken.

  "What do you think?"

  Carlos was the one who was the most confused, it felt like there was some kind of disconnect in the conversation with Erlangist, and nothing that was said matched up!

  "Ahem!

  Ahem!

  Didn't think so, no need to worry about it Lord Sacrifice, I still know a little about this matter of magical boundaries, where does Lord Sacrifice want to set up the boundary?"

  Erlangist relieved the awkwardness with a dry cough, then quickly changed the subject.

  It was only   at this moment that Carlos felt on track with Eranster's words, before the two didn't seem to be on the same channel, talking with a foot in the sky and a foot on the ground, like a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, completely donkey lips!

  "I'd like to set up a boundary around the outside of that granary you made last time, which was never built without a strong protection.

  I couldn't think of a good way to do it on my own, and remembering that you had trapped your grandson with a magical boundary before, I thought it would be easier to get a boundary for the granary."

  Carlos said.

  Boundary magic was originally invented by human magicians because the chanting time for human magicians to cast high level magic was much longer than the chanting time for Elvish magic.

  Constrained by this, humans often suffered losses, and there were too many uncontrollable factors during sparring, and the chanting was easily interrupted, which caused considerable trouble for human magicians, and also led to the low status of human magicians, and was not taken into account by warriors who relied on their martial skills.

  Therefore, human magicians explored this method that was not easily interrupted and was also convenient and quick in their constant groping, and because the practical effect was great, other races later followed suit and enabled this technique to be circulated on the continent.

  This was a means of storing the magician's magical energy in advance and then releasing it in the form of a magic array to be able to instantly defeat the enemy!

  Unlike the simple energy extraction that Erlangist had just done, there were special magical patterns engraved within the boundary, through which magical formations were formed, and then the magical formations were inscribed on top of carriers made of various materials.

  The small ones can be carried around, and the big ones can be inscribed on top of buildings and houses. In the pre-inscribed magic formations, the magic energy is dispersed and wanders around in specific patterns, and then after regrouping and combining them, it will explode into a much more powerful force than when the energy is used alone!

  The more complex the pattern of the magic formation, the more difficult it was to carve, and the greater the increase in power!

  Categorized according to function, there were three types of boundaries: attack boundaries, guarding boundaries, and binding boundaries, and according to difficulty, the magic formations within the boundaries could be categorized into low-order triangular spell formations, mid-order five-corner spell formations, high-order seven-corner spell formations, and the ultimate ultimate nine-corner spell formations!

  Triangle spell formation is the most basic spell formation, the center is an equilateral triangle, surrounded by a concentric circle with the center of the triangle as the center, the magical energy that fills the inside, after re-exporting it through a specific trajectory, will have three times the power of the simple use!

  By analogy, fifty cents is five times, seventy cents is seven times, and ninety cents is ninety-one times!

  The only other Ninehorn Boundary on the continent is in the deepest part of the Elven Forest.

  That is by the elf clan third generation elf queen summoned the elf clan all of the blazing sun magic guide and above level magician, together engraved three years, only to the depths of the forest of elves, the elf clan holy land of every inch of the land is engraved on the magic pattern.

  It is said that after the engraving was completed, the whole clan's efforts to instill magical energy could not be activated, and finally used the pure essence of magical energy left by the elf clan moon god Azerothia to be able to be activated.

  When the boundary was activated, a vision fell from the sky, and a huge heavenly pillar of holy light shot straight up into the sky, the entire continent could see it clearly, and anyone could feel the palpitatingly powerful force in it!

  All the races wrote to the Queen of the Elves to ask what had happened, and the third generation of the Queen of the Elves announced to the world that the Nine Horns Boundary had been constructed within the Elven Forest, and that the power that could be called a miracle was the energy that had escaped from the Nine Horns Boundary when it had just been completed, and that was why the Nine Horns Boundary was also known as the Divine Level Boundary!

  For a long time after that, probably a few hundred years, the Elven Forest had been classified as a forbidden place by the other races, and could not be stepped on easily!

  Then a legendary adventurer named Gullivers emerged from the human race, and his biography, Gullivers Travels, remains to this day a classic book that human children must read at bedtime in their childhood.

  Even though most people read this book as a storybook, what was written there was something that really happened!

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

  After traveling to every corner of the continent, Gryphus became interested in the then forbidden Elven Forest.

  Then, with the determination of certain death, he embarked on a wonderful adventure about the Forest of the Elves, and also concluded a deep friendship with the Elves, and then inadvertently discovered a secret that shocked the world!

  That was that the Nine Horns Boundary within the Forest of Elves didn't have any offensive power at all, that was actually just a Guardian Boundary!

  Gryphus did not keep this a secret, and knowing this, the ban on the Elfin Forest was lifted, as curious people of all races flocked into it.

  Some for the exotic flowers and fruits, some for the mineral deposits, some for a glimpse of the formation of the Nine Horns Boundary, some for the wonderful flavor of the elf maidens . After the lifting of the ban, a lot of human behavior hurt the Elf's Forest and the Elf Clan, that generation of the Elf Queen defended the dignity of the Elf Clan with blood and fire, and the Elf Clan's attitude towards humans has been very bad since then.

  It has continued to this day, and for any human who sets foot in the Forest of Elves, there will only be bows and arrows and staffs against him.

  Even so there were many human mercenaries who risked their lives to sneak in simply because elven maidens had sky-high prices in the slave market!

  There is no more lucrative business than selling slaves, and for profit, humans have always gone forward without fear of life or death.

As time went on, it became more and more difficult for the elves to capture them, and after learning of the nasty thoughts of the humans, the elves changed their original habit of living in order to protect themselves.

  Originally it was scattered in various places in the Forest of Elves, tribal-style scattered, and then the harassment of human poachers became more and more frequent, so the elf race all moved to the vicinity of the holy land, and built towns around the holy land, so that even if it's not good enough, they can still hide in the holy land.

  After simply gathering, the poachers had fewer and fewer chances to get their hands on them, plus the patrolling elven rangers weren't just for show, making it even harder for the poachers to get their hands on them.

  The price of Elven slaves then speculated higher and higher, only to have a price that was hard to find for heavy money!

  As the saying goes, there will be a brave man under a heavy reward, driven by the super high interest, more and more mercenaries flocked into the Forest of Elves.

  The chances of having a catch are a little higher when there are more people, and there's always that chance, blind-cat-meets-dead-rat thing.

  There was a silly boy mercenary who was so lucky that he actually picked up an elf maiden in a blur!

  Then it was transported to the auction house through the mercenary group, and the proceeds of the auction directly made him rich, and the money he exchanged for it could not be spent in several lifetimes.

  So he quit being a mercenary and spent money on a knighthood in the Starfall Empire, completing a magnificent transformation from commoner to noble, becoming a model of retrogression that was celebrated by all!

  Successful precedents inspired people to move forward on this path, and human society came up with the saying, "The easiest way to change your fate is to pick up a lost elfin maiden!"

  Some of the plutocratic nobles of the Starfall Empire and the Duchy of Pivov, after enjoying the wonders of the elfin maidens, became more and more lustful, and not only spent a lot of money to hire mercenaries to poach in the Elven Forest.

  , and even co-funded an underground organization of wizards that was known for its insanity, and it did have some rather talented wizards in it, and it was rumored that the one leading it was a Saint-ranked wizard!

  His true identity has always been a mystery, only to know that he is exceptionally powerful and has a wide range of connections, with the Starfall Empire's royal family have interests linked, it is said that there is only a thin line separating geniuses and madmen, this person is a living example!

  The organization, with him at its head, is constantly inventing magical weapons of mass destruction, and is well-fed in the black market.

  These consortiums provide them with a steady stream of financial support, hoping that they can research a way to break the Nine Corners Boundary, or maybe they can construct an offensive Nine Corners Boundary!

  Breaking through the holy land of the elves and turning all elven women into their personal possessions was the ambition and goal of those plutocratic nobles, the hope of realizing it was relatively slim, but they kept trying!

  The conflict between the humans and the elves has been building up for a long time, and an all-out war is bound to break out at some point in the future!

  And at that moment, Carlos was discussing with Eranster what level of boundary to use.

  "Triangle spells, which are knots applied to a single magical element.

  With a five-cornered spell formation, you can form a composite boundary that can hold multiple elements, and a seven-cornered spell formation is too complicated to carve at my level yet."

  Erlangist said.

  According to Carlos's general idea, the higher the specification of this boundary, the better of course, but this time, Carlos was in the spirit of learning the arrangement of this boundary, so this starting point should still be slightly lower, and the triangle was a very appropriate choice.

  "Do you think it's possible for me to learn the pentagonal arrangement straight away?"

  Carlos is still a little greedy.

  "It's all a loop, without the triangle where is the five corners, ten thousand feet high, the foundation is the most important, learn the triangle to have the five corners, seven corners, and even the godly nine corners in the back!

  O Lord Sacrifice, you are still young, and although you are gifted, you still need to keep your feet on the ground."

  Erlangist said.

  "I've been taught, I'll learn trigonometry, so please don't hesitate to teach me."

  Carlos performed the etiquette of a student to his teacher, an etiquette that had been forced upon him by Avril.

  Avril privately found time to specifically give Carlos a refresher on etiquette, teaching various rules of etiquette between different statuses, which happened to include etiquette between teachers and students, and Carlos learned a little bit about it now.

  Eranster accepted the salute openly, wizards still valued the relationship of mentorship amongst themselves, and Eranster didn't push back just because Carlos had the status of a priest.

  "Laying out the boundary the first thing to do is to engrave the magic lines, this is a delicate and slow work, there is a little error the boundary will be completely useless, every stroke must be engraved in meticulous detail only!"

  "Secondly the choice of bearing material is very important, different raw materials for engraving, the effect will be different, the most commonly used several materials are gold, silver, copper, iron, and other various metals."

  "In addition, there are also animal skins, it is more difficult to carve on animal skins, but it is also more powerful, and it can even take on some attributes that are unique to this animal skin, and pure magical energies can be transformed to take on elemental attributes, such as the wind blades of the wind wolves or something like that."

  Eranster spoke at great length, it was obvious that he was willing to teach, perhaps it was his age, the older he got the more he nagged, but fortunately Carlos listened attentively as well, without the slightest bit of impatience.

  "By the way, do you want to set up a guarding or attacking type of boundary?

  Or do you want a binding type of knot?

  Relatively speaking the bound type is a bit more complicated, but I still have a bit of research on this one, because my disobedient grandson often thinks of running away, and I use it a lot." Erlangist seemed to have found another topic.

  "I want the attack type, you speak attack type is fine."

  Carlos hurried to break the topic over, otherwise Elanst could say half a day about his grandson, if he said on the rise, Carlos was too embarrassed to directly interrupt this old man's memories, it was better to turn the tables before the mood got the better of him now.

  "Attack type ah, this is relatively simple,, engraved magic array inscribed into the carrier, select an elemental attribute then use the magic energy of this attribute to activate the magic array, so that a boundary is ready."

  "Next, as long as there is an uninterrupted supply of energy, the boundary will not disappear naturally, but the boundary can be destroyed, and the attributes corresponding to the magic formation boundary itself have a certain defense bonus against attribute attacks of the same element.

  After being impacted by external energy beyond the limit of what it can carry on its own, it will collapse, and when the magic array collapses, the boundary naturally disappears, and these are some of the basic problems with boundaries."

  Carlos nodded   as Elenster finished speaking, then looked down and mused for half a second that a magical boundary was probably the most convenient and quickest way to do it, and it was simple to manage and maintain.

  The key thing is that you don't have to expend energy additionally, and the setup will last as long as the energy doesn't run out.

  The large amount of magic crystals that Carlos had was the perfect solution to the energy problem as far as being destroyed.

  Carlos didn't even think about it, even if he was starving and crazy, he wouldn't know how to come and smash his own granary, wouldn't it be simpler to just go hunting?
