Extraordinary Sailing

"Have you ever heard of the Djinn?"

"Deng Shen?! Mr. Ariyi, are you entertaining me?"

Aiwen returned to the reception room with the seemingly sincere Prince Heimar, but the guest's first words made him angry. Shaking his head, he didn't want to waste any more time.

"No, no, Mr. Garriott, listen to me. Unlike those swindling fairy tales, the Genie actually exists.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to summon the Djinn to grant your wishes, and I really don't have that ability. But to explain the magical characteristics of the race of demon spirits, and introduce you to a friend of demon spirits, Ifrit, come out! "

Aliyi, who had changed back to her golden desert kingdom costume, clapped her hands in a calm manner.

Bang——

A group of bright orange-red flames exploded beside him, and a humanoid creature with soaring horns stepped out.

Ai Wen's eyes were fixed, and the outline of the body was a tall female image, but the whole body was red like lava, the long hair made of flames hung down to the ankles, and the close-fitting clothing seemed to be woven by flames.

The most important thing is that the powerful aura belonging to the third-order transcendence is undisguised.

However.

Although the extraordinary aura on this creature was as dazzling as the scorching sun, it didn't put any pressure on Aiwen, who was already a third-level senior.

Snapped--

He even snapped his fingers very calmly, and temporarily painted the reception room and all the furniture with [Fire Resistance Enchantment].

Seeing the appearance of the most powerful emissary under his command, he didn't achieve the kind of head start effect he imagined at all. Ariyi also quietly let go of her bargaining mind, and explained softly to Aiwen:

"One of the most powerful demon spirits in Huimar is the legendary lamp god (half god), who can hear all voices in the world, including the desires of human hearts, and perfectly fulfill the wishes of mortals.

And Ifrit is a flame demon spirit of the same family as the lamp god. In other words, the race of the lamp god is called Ifrit. When the real name cannot be revealed, this is also the code name of all flame demon spirits. "

It is even recorded in the classics of the Starry Night Church:

"The stars in the sky are the light of punishment given by the 'Bright Starry Night' to the elves for eavesdropping on things in heaven."

One can imagine how miraculous their abilities are.

As a flame demon spirit of the same family as the lamp god, Ifrit also has the ability to listen to some strong wishes of others. Although it is impossible to directly satisfy the wishes of others as easily as the Djinn, it can also guide an indirect way to solve the problem.

Of course, Aiwen has many wishes in his heart, but the most urgent one at present is to make his territory survive the spiritual tide. This wish happened to be captured by Ifrit, and today's visit and transaction came about.

Under Ariyi's signal, the wild and unruly Ifrit first glanced at Ivan provocatively, then spread his fiery red palm and sent a red gem to him.

"Although we don't know where you will use it, we know that it has a very high possibility of helping you solve your troubles."

No pretentiousness.

In front of Ariyi and the flame familiar, Aiwen directly threw out a detection witchcraft. It is confirmed that this is a creation like a memory crystal, which is usually a carrier of some kind of knowledge or information.

After eliminating the danger, he reached out and took it. The spiritual light touched the information in it lightly, and immediately frowned:

"The Sacrifice of Ifrit?"

There is a "sleeping warrior" in everyone's heart. As long as mortals can wake up this "sleeping warrior", they can overcome the fear of death and reproduce the "Sacrifice of Ifrit" that can destroy the limit wall .

Legend has it that when warriors in the ancient arena were not afraid of death in battle and were on the verge of dying, they would hear a magical sound of war drums.

And all warriors who hear the sound of the drum will no longer fight for hatred, for victory or defeat, or even for themselves. What is left is only a strong will to fight that will never stop even if they die.

And at this time, they will also gain the ultimate power beyond all common sense and logic in this world!

However, this is not an illusory legend, but a real and powerful witchcraft ritual - [Sacrifice of Ifrit].

The ritual is not aimed at demon spirits or a certain true god, but the impersonal god Tirentius, the primordial god.

It can be realized only by specific extraordinary arena buildings or symbols, plus corresponding amulets.

Although the so-called "ultimate power" is a bit exaggerated, it does not require active cultivation, and it is true that every time you survive a battle, you can passively gain enhancement.

In other words, it's a bit like fighting monsters and upgrading, but if the will to fight without death as required by the ceremony is not met, the increase will not be too great.

In fact, on the island in the sea of ​​mist, Aiwen has been thinking about this issue since the [Maze] rule prompted the winner to obtain a spiritual bonus.

Especially for the growing "Pipkin" group under the opponent, this is probably the only possibility for them to make progress (the upper limit is locked the moment they take office, and there is almost no room for improvement).

But that is the power from the gods, and it is not replicable.

But now [Ifrit's Sacrifice] can break the shackles that the "Pipkin" can no longer take the initiative to improve!

Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious.

The first can only be used for position defense; the second bonus is weak, and if you have the will mentioned in the ceremony, it is enough to inspire fighting spirit to advance to the third level; the third is not born for large-scale wars, but like a game to please the gods, you need to respond The talisman is not universal.

But Ai Wen knows the importance of accumulation, even if it is 1.01^365, it can reach 37.78. Facing this continent known as "Animism", there will be absolutely no shortage of enemies in the future.

Especially in a foreseeable long war, this magical ritual can make time a friend of one's side, and the more battles one encounters, the stronger one's strength will be.

"Okay, I agree to this transaction, happy cooperation, Mr. Aliyi."

In exchange, in addition to the 14 commonly used gemstones currently featured, Aiwen promised to launch a corresponding project to cultivate pink pillars specifically for Aliyi's research. But the finished product is not provided for free, but requires him to pay for it.

"Thank you, Mr. Garriott, I will stay in the New World during this time, waiting for your good news."

After the transaction was completed, Ariyi showed a relieved smile.

As Prince Heimar, who owns a large number of royal properties, he has never been afraid of spending money, but because of the rarity of this gemstone, gemstones over 100 carats cannot be bought even if he has money.

After the wish was fulfilled, Aliyi even gave some targeted knowledge from the Starry Night Church as a gift in addition to the ceremony. There is a specialization in the art industry, although it may not be very strong, it is very useful when dealing with spirit bodies.

After the cloud meeting ended, the colonies quickly moved into action.

In just three days, the defense line headed by the arakkoa, the church, the garrison, the militia, and the private army of the nobles had been rebuilt on the basis of those breached pioneering towns.

Because the current development progress of each colony is east of the Abayachi Mountains that run through the north and south of the eastern part of the mainland, the line of defense they set up is also called the "Abayachi Line of Defense."

The 350-kilometer north-to-south area in Georgia is naturally called the "Cumberland Line of Defense." Extending further south is the Aymore Peninsula. Because of the superior terrain, the defensive pressure of the Far Sail collar is very light.

Of course, the troops stationed at the "Cumberland Line of Defense" became a mixed force of the two families, which also made Aiwen thankful for his wit. If it was placed before the engagement, no matter how good the relationship was with the Marquis, it would be impossible. sent reinforcements.

Unless you add money.

The advantage is that there is no need to build a city wall like the Great Wall, as long as the stronghold is within the perception range of those "ghosts", it can have a defensive effect. The desire for flesh and soul will make these mindless guys automatically gather at each defensive stronghold.

Of course, guarding these places against "ghosts" also requires courage beyond ordinary people.

Therefore, the first batch of supplies that Ivan delivered to the entire Phalatis colony were the [Arena Altar] and the [Gladiator Amulet] that constituted the [Ifrit's Sacrifice].

The temptation to increase strength in battle is undoubtedly huge. Under the propaganda and mobilization, many free transcendents and mercenaries also took the initiative to join the defense line.

Aiwen never thought of getting this kind of thing for his own use only. Defending the city and fighting the epidemic are the same thing. Each family sweeping the snow in front of the door is equal to white sweeping. If a large number of "ghosts" enter the colony, it will be difficult to find them one by one.

Now the "Activation School" has more than 20 apprentice wizards from the Alchemy School, plus an official wizard Samuel who surrendered, and the production capacity is already very impressive.

In a short period of time, it is not a problem to divide each colony into two experimental results.

And the war appropriation in the colonies was also credited to the account immediately. As for the source of this money, there is a situation where "the gentry's money will be returned in full, and the common people's money will be divided into 30-70%", Aiwen has no idea at all. serious face.jpg.

In addition, the spirit bodies faced by the defense line also have different levels.

In addition to being scary, ordinary ghosts can't kill even the weakest ordinary people. For a full-fledged knight whose body has a powerful life force field like a furnace, a strong breath may be able to blow out the ghost.

At the level of wraith spirits, they are already able to influence the spirit of weak-willed people, causing various accidental killings, such as falling off a cliff or falling into a pool of water.

The evil spirits are already completely irresistible existences for mortals, possessing many unreasonable abilities, such as killing people with intentions, cursing, possessing bodies, and being immune to physical damage. Some also possess various special abilities.

Among them, the most powerful evil spirits are already immortal.

But these guys are almost like natural phenomena. For the foundation of one's own existence (obsession), there is no possibility of going around in circles.

The most dangerous enemies are not them, but the totem gods who successfully possessed humans like the great sea shark Owig. Every such existence has at least the third-level strength, and even has wisdom beyond human beings!

So Ivan also spent a lot of money on the Cumberland defense.

With Bradley disappearing, the Golden Sea has been divided equally by the two pirate kings, and it is no longer necessary to maintain such a large number of extraordinary teams just to rob merchant ships.

The "Pipkin" legion has now grown to 70 people. Aiwen directly transferred most of them into his lord's guard, and then arranged for them all to go to the front line.

He is very clear that according to the theory of human needs hierarchy, the five categories of physiological needs, safety needs, sense of belonging, respect, and self-realization are elevated in sequence. Now as long as you are not starving to death, safety is more important than anything else.

Whoever can provide the people with a stronger sense of security will get the most population!

For him, this "spiritual wave" that has spread across the entire continent not only means danger but also opportunity. As for how much you can eat in the end, it depends on how big your stomach is.
