What is void stone?
Most wizards may not be able to see the true face of void stone in their lifetime!
When introducing void stone, relevant books simply describe it as the core material for building inter-dimensional teleportation arrays. Tianlai Novel www. ⒉
Such a description is not wrong, but it is not accurate.
Without void stone, you can actually build an inter-dimensional teleportation array, but you need a wizard tower as the time and space beacon for space teleportation, and each teleportation requires a large amount of magic crystals.
All of this means a lot of money and resources, as well as a long construction period.
If the construction of an inter-dimensional teleportation array is used for peacetime communication, such progress and loss are acceptable. But if it is used in a plane war where every second counts, such a speed is too slow!
You know, in a bloody and cruel plane war, building a teleportation array one day earlier and sending more of your own combat power over will greatly change the outcome of a plane war. Once the transmission is too slow, the bases established by the wizards in the early stage will be swallowed up by the local plane natives with the advantage of numbers, and all the previous investments will be lost.
What's more terrible is that the wizards used by the family for war will be trapped in the other plane.
This is a huge blow that no wizard family can bear!
Just like the Salupo family, they obviously won a plane war, but because the number of wizards lost in the battlefield of the other plane was too large, it was close to the minimum limit for the family to maintain the rule of the planes, so it caused the turmoil of the main plane family power.
To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the timely return of the main forces of the family such as Korgan and Grimm, I'm afraid that the Salupo family would have to lose 30% of its sphere of influence in the wizard continent before it could regain its footing. Although these losses can be regained as the family prospers step by step in the future, the fatigue in the short term is inevitable.
At the beginning of the plane war, if the Salupo family had the void stone in their hands, they would not have to build a war wizard tower with such a large force. Just find a deserted mountain and build a long-distance teleportation array with void stone, then a large number of people and materials can be continuously transported into the other plane.
When the natives of the other plane feel that something is wrong and gather a large army to rush over, they will no longer face a few wizards, but a well-organized army of wizard beasts and a wizard team ready for battle.
Moreover, the long-distance teleportation array built with void stone can automatically absorb the space power in the void, thereby reducing the demand for magic crystals. In this way, it can save a lot of money for the wizard family.
However, it is precisely because of these excellent qualities of void stone that it has become a strategic resource that wizard families who are interested in plane conquest must hoard. Any void stone that appears will lead to open and secret competition among many wizard families, so it rarely appears in the circulation field of various regions.
Basically, as soon as it appears, it is collected by those large families or organizational forces, and ordinary small families and wizards have no chance to see it.
Therefore, when the silver-robed law enforcer Randolph blurted out "Void Stone", the Byron family wizards gathered in the station could not help but tremble, and all looked at the fist-sized gray stone in Grimm's hand.
Is this the Void Stone? This is too inconspicuous!
When everyone was in doubt, Grimm's right hand holding the gray stone shook slightly, and strange silver lines appeared on the trajectory of the gray stone, and there was a slight space distortion around the gray stone.
The wizards were shocked!
Without the help of any magic array and magic, it can distort the void so easily just by relying on its own characteristics. It really deserves to be the famous Void Stone!
After being surprised, the wizards' eyes shot out greedy and regretful looks.
Good stuff, it is really good stuff! It's a pity why it was shown in front of everyone! If...if only I know this news, wouldn't it be...
The three silver-robed law enforcers, one woman and two men, looked at each other and made a decision immediately.
Wizard Randolph stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Mr. Grimm, since you conducted extremely dangerous space experiments in the Sky City without permission, I, on behalf of the Space Committee, decided to seal your space experiment supplies first. You can go to the Space Committee to appeal within three days, and the Alliance Parliament will make a fair decision at that time! Now, you can hand over your experimental supplies..."
"Wait a minute..."
A sudden voice interrupted Randolph's words, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and it was the red-robed witch Nanali.
"Sir Randolph, you should be punished for conducting dangerous experiments in the Sky City without authorization. But if I remember correctly, as long as this experiment does not endanger the safety of the Sky City and its members, the punishment can be carried out by paying a fine. And Sir Grimm is a distinguished guest of our family, so our Byron family is willing to bear his fine!"
"You..." Randolph was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
As a fair law enforcer of the Sky City, he certainly knew that the rules mentioned by Lady Nanali were valid. If it were in the past, relying on the favor of a level 2 wizard, he would naturally be willing to do a favor and make the matter a small matter.
But... but this involves a void stone!
And judging from the size, it is far beyond the standard size for building a cross-dimensional teleportation array. If I let such a thing pass by in vain, I am afraid that I will be criticized by all the alliance members when I go back.
"Lord Nanali, you are only talking about the general way of handling it. And he is conducting an extremely dangerous space experiment, so this method can no longer be used as a substitute." Randolph Wizard explained righteously, and his voice was low and full of power, fully showing his determination.
Unfortunately, facing a void stone that can bring huge benefits to the family, Nanali Wizard, who is excited about the prey, is obviously unwilling to give up easily.
It is certainly unwise to offend these silver-robed law enforcers for no reason in the Sky City, but if the price is to harvest a void stone, it becomes not a bad thing. In the future, as long as the family is more restrained in the Sky City, these guys who only follow rules and laws will not be able to deprive the Byron family of their rights at will.
The things in front of me are very clear.
Once this Void Stone falls into their hands, although the other party has repeatedly stated that they can regain it by appealing to the Alliance Parliament, no one will believe such a ridiculous thing.
These guys with rigid and dull brains are not very good at fighting, but they are first-class at flipping through the articles and arguing with you word by word about the "Sky Code". God knows what kind of article they will find in the thick "Sky Code" that is three meters high to swallow this Void Stone.
Of course, the thing of forcibly seizing it will not happen. The group of Alliance members will definitely redeem this Void Stone at a generous and attractive price. But what price can compare with a secondary plane that can be easily obtained?
Seriously speaking, almost every old wizard family in the Wizard Continent will have a certain unconquered alien plane beacon in their hands. The main reason why they have not been conquered yet is that the resource consumption and personnel loss of opening up alien plane wars are too huge.
Every old wizard family needs a period of accumulation. When the resource reserves reach the minimum limit of the plane war and the cultivation of family wizards has new blood input, this is the best time to consider the plane conquest.
The only reason for not daring to eat delicious food is that you are afraid of choking to death!
But if you have a void stone, sneak in secretly and build a teleportation array secretly. Before the natives of the plane react, a large number of family wizards and organized wizard guards can pour in continuously.
With the terrible means of wizards, does the secondary plane that is targeted still have room for resistance?
It only takes a teleportation array and a complete war wizard tower to build a complete war. The difference in difficulty determines the success or failure of a plane war!
So when the family has no handle to be grasped by the silver robe law enforcer, it is necessary for the wizard Nanali to strive for this void stone.
The family interests involved in this treasure are too big, and she can't help but fight for it!
As the law enforcers of the Sky City, although Randolph and his people are usually strong, they still cannot take things by force. Seeing that the Sky Guards were unable to force the wizard Nanali to surrender, Randolph could only helplessly announce that he would lead Grimm to the Alliance Parliament immediately.
Today's matter seems to be judged by the members of the Alliance Parliament!
As the highest authority to govern and manage the Sky City, the Alliance Parliament has 97 members (Level 3). Most of them are high-level esoteric wizards trained by the Silver Alliance itself, but some well-known Level 3 wizards who are not from the Silver Alliance have also been hired.
And its parliament hall is the most important magic building in the entire Central Ring area.
The area ruled by the Silver Alliance is also extremely large, and the human settlements in the entire southwest region of the Wizard Continent are under its protection. A total of 15 large and small regions and countries have been divided, and each place needs the Silver Alliance to send members to manage it permanently.
In addition, in order to facilitate communication and trade, the Silver Alliance has also stationed Alliance members in major regions such as Sandy Tallinn, Northland Witches, and the Wizard Association. So 97 rank 3 councillors may sound like a lot, but after being divided up like this, they seem stretched and insufficient.
Therefore, in the Alliance Council of this Sky City, only 30-40 Alliance Councillors actually exercise power. And they cannot be in the Council Hall all the time, so general affairs are directly decided by the 5-member Council Panel that adopts a rotation system! chapter;
