Chapter 596 Magic Mechanism
Just like the diary that Greg has read, no one has read it in more than a thousand years. However, the contents in it are all guesses, and the guesses are not clear enough. Anyone who reads it can only take it as a It's just someone playing tricks and playing tricks on people.
However, now that Lin Li has found the underground palace, he can confirm that the contents of the diary were not fabricated by future generations. So can we really find some clues in the diary? Although Greg did not bring the original copy of the diary, he wrote out the contents accurately based on his memory and handed it to Lin Li when they broke up.
Is there anything else that I haven’t noticed? Lin Li took out the notepad and flipped through two pages. In fact, the contents were already memorized in his mind. Suddenly his hand stopped, and a smile appeared on his face. Although the contents of the diary did not have any accurate description, one thing can be determined through the diary, and that is the time when the incident happened.
In a diary, no matter what you record, the date is always an essential element. However, what use is it to Lin Li to know the construction date of the underground palace?
The construction time of the underground palace should be about a hundred years before the demise of the high elves. I remember it was mentioned in a book called "The Book of Oblivion" that magic mechanics, which had always been unknown and not valued by people, briefly rose up at that time. Ranwen Novel Network.
The original origin of magic mechanics cannot be verified, but most people believe that magic mechanics should have a certain relationship with alchemy, or that it also comes from the goblin era.
There is indeed some truth to this belief. Take the Alchemy Colossus, the most famous product of alchemy, as an example. Many of its technologies are indeed consistent with magic mechanics.
In the application of magic mechanism, there is also a product called the mechanism puppet, which looks very similar to the Alchemy Colossus in terms of appearance. However, technically speaking, there are actually essential differences between the two.
The Alchemy Colossus is driven by alchemy arrays. The countless alchemy arrays on its body are responsible for various functions, and the attack and defense of magic energy are only one of them. The alchemy circle is also responsible for many basic functions, such as the power of body movement, which is like the function of muscles.
As for the magic mechanism puppet, it is an alchemical array that uses gears and transmission power to replace part of the basic functions. The focus of the technology is the mechanism rather than magic. This seemed very relatable to Lin Li, but in the eyes of most people in Anriel Continent, it seemed a bit deviant.
Of course, it is precisely because of such technical characteristics that the power of the mechanism puppet and the alchemy colossus are completely different, and they can only be used to do some chores like servants. Therefore, people feel that this magical mechanism is of no use at all. If there is a shortage of servants, they can buy them at the slave market for a small amount of money, so why use rigid mechanism puppets.
It is this view that makes the science of magic mechanics become a subject that only curiosity seekers can get into, and it becomes a miscellaneous subject that cannot be put on the stage. Therefore, in such a magical and civilized world, although this kind of mechanism technology is novel, it is indeed difficult to find a market. Otherwise, the development of civilization in this world should take another path.
In fact, in magic mechanism science, mechanism puppets are only a very rudimentary application. Magic mechanism technology has a great advantage that cannot be achieved by other subject technologies, and that is energy saving. This advantage may seem a bit ridiculous, but in some specific circumstances, this ridiculous advantage plays a great role.
Whether it is a magic wave array or an alchemy array, magic crystals are needed to provide energy. As time goes by, no matter how powerful the magic crystals are, they will gradually weaken and cannot maintain the original design of the magic pattern array or alchemy array. time effect. It would be okay to say that the power is reduced a little, but if it is reduced to the point where it cannot even move, it is equivalent to opening the door and letting people move it at will.
As for the magic mechanism, as long as no one touches it, there will be no loss of energy.
Even after thousands of years, when someone touches the magic mechanism, they will face the same maximum energy blow as when it was originally set up. Therefore, in the eyes of some people, using magic mechanisms to guard tombs is quite good.
If it was really a magic mechanism, then the wall inlaid with magic-repelling gems would not be a problem for Lin Li. When he used the wishing scroll, he required all life-related skills to be upgraded by one level. Although this magic mechanism did not reach the master level, it also reached the master level like mineralogy. For a subject that is almost forgotten by people, the master level can already be called the absolute most powerful in the research of this subject.
Lin Li stood under the wall again. Combining the knowledge of magic mechanisms that he had just found in his mind, he searched for clues on the wall like peeling cocoons and spinning threads. After changing my way of thinking, everything seemed much more pleasing to the eye. The originally clueless mess was gradually sorted out after finding a beginning.
Lin Li felt very fortunate that the knowledge of magic mechanics involved here was not beyond his ability. There are generally two methods to crack the magic mechanism: one can be called a once-and-for-all method, which is to find the core power of the magic mechanism and destroy the core power. The magic mechanism will naturally be cracked without power; the second one should be said to be a trick-and-trick method. , through a lot of calculations to find out the loopholes in the magic mechanism, or to actively trigger it in advance, or to use the loophole to stop the effect.
However, facing this wall, Lin Li felt that it was better to choose a once and for all method. It was more practical to directly find the power core and destroy it. Generally speaking, the vast majority of people who use magic mechanisms will choose long-lived Warcraft in terms of power core, and the best choice is the Amethyst Shield Turtle.
The Amethyst Shield Turtle should be regarded as the longest-lived monster in Anriel Continent. Once in a certain Titan ruins, people found an Amethyst Shield Turtle with a lifespan of more than 70,000 years, and that Amethyst Shield Turtle The turtle is still alive. Of course, in the Titan ruins, the amethyst shield turtle is not the power core of the magic mechanism, but the pet of a certain Titan who owns the tomb.
The Amethyst Shield Turtle is also very powerful. Those with a life span of more than 20,000 years can reach the legendary level. However, the legendary level has already reached the top, and it is impossible to enter the holy realm if it lives for another 200,000 years. Compared with other legendary monsters, their personalities are very docile, and they are extremely easy to capture. Therefore, nine out of ten magic machine masters will choose the Amethyst Shield Turtle when building magic machines.
As the core of power. The remaining one must have been too unlucky to find the Amethyst Shield Turtle.
Since it was the underground palace built by Osric, Lin Li believed that the power core would definitely not be an amethyst shield turtle below the legendary level. Therefore, how could he let go of such a treasure? It was going to be in his pocket anyway. This was just killing two birds with one stone.
Although the magic mechanism does not have a source of magic power or a magic power path, there are traces to follow.
Although power transmission devices such as gears and hinges are hidden, in the eyes of Lin Li, a master of magic mechanisms, there are many clues, enough for him to find the location of the power core.
Lin Li walked slowly back and forth in front of the wall, his eyes carefully scanning every line, and a lot of detailed calculations were going on in his mind. Finally, his eyes lit up, and the clues to the power core quickly became clear on the wall. He stepped out of the secret room and followed the clues without hesitation.
Seeing their master leaving the secret room, Uyfalusi and Nofeile could not understand, but they did not ask any more questions and followed their master step by step outside. Up to now, both of them were actually quite disappointed. They couldn't help by fighting, and they couldn't help by coming up with ideas. This servant was really a failure.
Following the clues of the magic mechanism, Lin Li walked through several rooms in the palace and found a basement where sundries were stored. There are no treasures in the basement, only worthless junk piled up.
However, even though it was a basement filled with clutter, it didn't feel messy at all. Everything was neatly arranged.
"Move those things." Lin Li pointed to the garbage pile under a wall. Uyfalusi and Nofeile finally waited for the opportunity to take action, and quickly stepped forward to clear the garbage pile at an extremely fast speed.
After clearing away the garbage pile, the wall was completely exposed, but to others it still looked very ordinary, and there was nothing unusual about it at all. But in the eyes of Lin Li, a master of magic mechanisms, the so-called secret is just a matter of looking twice.
Soon, Lin Li found a hidden secret door behind the garbage pile. On the surface, there was nothing out of the ordinary about the secret door, but Lin Li knew clearly that the magic mechanism used in the secret door was enough to kill a great magician in an instant. Naturally, the magic mechanism on the secret door couldn't stop him, and after opening the secret door, what appeared behind the door was another passage extending diagonally downwards.
The passage is extremely narrow, only one person can pass through, and it is dark inside without any light.
Novel stepped forward, looked inside the passage, and said to Lin Li: "Master, let me go in first to explore the path for you."
Lin Li smiled, waved his hand, and said, "You can't help with this matter, just wait here for me to come back."
Then, he released a magic ball of light in his hand, suspended it not far in front of him, and stepped into the passage.
Not that Lin Li had any kind of love for not exploring the road with his hands, but mainly because he felt it was unnecessary. Through the research he had just done on the magic mechanism here, he was already sure that he could handle it completely. Novel, a layman who didn't know anything, would only cause trouble for himself by exploring the way ahead.
Watching the master's figure disappear into the secret passage, Nofeile and Uyfalusi looked at each other and saw the helplessness and loss in each other's eyes.
Nofeile would not be dissatisfied with Lin Li's decision, but he was definitely feeling disappointed. Thinking about how he had just recognized Lin Li as his master, with his level 17 strength, he could still solve some problems for his master. But now, as the master becomes stronger and stronger, the enemies he faces become more and more difficult, and he, a seventeenth-level vampire, is becoming more and more useless.
Compared to Nophele, Uyfalusi shouldn't feel any sense of loss. After all, he fell from the legendary realm. As long as he has two or three months to burn the text novel network, it is entirely possible to return to his previous strength. . Originally, he thought that as long as he returned to the legendary realm, he would be a great help to his master. However, after following Ranwen Novel Network during this period and watching the master's improvement, Uyfalusi's previous thoughts began to waver.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with having a strong master. The stronger the master, the easier it is to get a natural salary as a subordinate. However, only those who have no pursuit will be content with this attitude.
Although both of them are undead, they both still have human thoughts, and they also have the desire for fame and fortune that most humans have.
Since the master is destined to leave a significant mark in the history of Anriel Continent, as his subordinate, he will naturally have the opportunity to leave his name. But there is a premise, that is, you can't be too unknown. You don't even have a chance to show your face. Why should others remember you?
But if you show your face once and get hanged, it might be possible to be infamy for eternity. Therefore, the most fundamental thing is to work hard yourself. Only by improving your strength can you have a chance to take action, and only then can your name appear in the master's legend in the future.
Lin Li doesn’t know yet, UU Reading www.uｋｋｈhu． net's two undead servants are actually so motivated. After he entered the secret passage and walked down the narrow passage, it was indeed filled with extremely insidious traps. If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to take more than a few steps before they were hit, even other masters of magic mechanisms. This was because in addition to the mechanisms, there were also traps set by magic patterns and alchemy circles in this passage. ≮≯
This setting is absolutely insidious. If a team walks in, there must be a magic mechanism master inside. This passage only allows one person to pass through, and anyone who enters may face traps in areas they are unfamiliar with. Under such a setting, it is very possible to kill the magic mechanism masters in the invaders' team, and even masters in other fields.
However, it is a pity that this setting is destined to have no effect if it encounters Lin Li. Before controlling the power core of the magic mechanism, the way to eliminate the mechanism trap is to actively induce and terminate it in advance. For Lin Li, with his master level in magic mechanics, even though the other party put a lot of effort into these traps, it was completely useless for him. At most, it only made him stop for a moment. As for the traps of magic patterns and alchemy circles, they are not worth mentioning. In terms of magic patterns, Lin Li is at the master level, but the alchemy circle is even simpler. Don't forget that he also has a tool in his hand that can disintegrate alchemy.
