Chapter 697 Diya Ghost Exhibition
[Mist Converter Design Drawings]
Architectural Drawings
Occupancy: 3*3
Required Materials: 20,000 gold coins, 400 wood, 500 ore, 200 each of level 2 resources, 60 level 3 ghost wood, 30 level 4 underworld stone... 10 level 5 mountain copper
Effect: After construction, it can slowly absorb nearby chaos mist and transform it into undead death energy. 】
Seven Pigeons stared at the [Mist Converter Design Drawings], and their mood was a little complicated for a while.
As Duo Gaosuos said, the current [Mist Converter] is just a test product.
It has the characteristics that all test products should have - expensive, special, complex, and impractical.
A large number of complex machinery and undead magic arrays make up this huge and bulky [quasi-building].
The reason why it is a [quasi-building] is that although the [Mist Converter] has some architectural features, it cannot be self-contained like a normal building.
All the [buildings] recognized by the Mother Goddess in the Seven Pigeons' territory have one common feature, that is, [perfection].
The damage caused by attacking these buildings will only reduce the armor value of the buildings, but will not invalidate the functions of the buildings, nor will it destroy parts of the buildings.
The [Mist Converter] is different. The complex and sophisticated [Mist Converter] is a pseudo-building formed by splicing together hundreds of materials engraved with the magic array of the undead.
As long as one of the materials is slightly moved, the entire [Mist Converter] will fail.
When all the materials are placed correctly and there are no errors, the [Mist Converter] can function normally, which is the [quasi-building].
Duo Gaosos's small request is that he wants Qi Ge to help him perfect the [Mist Converter] into a [perfect] building.
Qi Ge agreed without thinking too much, which made Duo Gaosos very happy.
But when Qi Ge asked Agaide afterwards, he learned that although [quasi-building] and [building] are only one word apart, the difference is greater than the difference between [female teacher] and [female teacher].
It is more difficult to transform a [quasi-building] into a [building] with the same function than to create a new building.
After Qi Ge learned about it in detail, he realized how big a sinkhole he was about to face.
In reality, the first electronic digital integrator in human history was called ENIAC.
ENIAC is 30.48 meters long, 6 meters wide, 2.4 meters high, covers an area of about 170 square meters, has a total of 30 operating tables, and weighs 30 tons.
It is equivalent to a nearly solid four-bedroom and one-living room house.
To turn the [Mist Converter] into a [Building] is equivalent to turning ENIAC into a computer host commonly used by people in the 22nd century.
This is a task that the entire human civilization took more than 160 years to complete in reality.
In desperation, Qi Ge could only return to Duo Gaosuos, return the [Mist Converter] design, and said that he was really powerless.
Duo Gaosuosi happily rejected Qi Ge's request and said:
"Oh. I'm just joking, don't take it too seriously.
I'll leave this design with you. I believe in your luck and potential. What if you can come up with it someday?
Even if you can't come up with it, I won't blame you. Don't feel psychological pressure."
Having said this, Qi Ge had no choice but to put this hot potato away.
Just as Qi Ge said goodbye to Duo Gaosuosi again and wanted to find the maids of Madam Red, Duo Gaosuosi smiled and said to Qi Ge:
"By the way, Qi Ge, it's a coincidence that you came. Recently, our Tianmu City is holding the [Diya Undead Exhibition] once every three years.
If you are interested, you can go and have a look."
While Duo Gaosuosi said this, he handed Qi Ge an invitation letter with a black background and gold edges. There was no text on it, only a golden dragon skull.
Diya Undead Exhibition, among players, has another name called Undead Technology Fair.
This is the highest grand gathering of Diya's undead wizards.
Undead wizards from all over Diya will come here with their research results of several years or even decades.
Trade fair, trade fair, one is exhibition, the other is sales.
On the one hand, these undead wizards will display their research results for reference by other undead wizards with similar research directions.
On the other hand, they will also package their research results to attract investment from visitors, let them invest in their research, or simply sell their research results directly.
Many famous arms, war machines, and buildings in Yasha, including skeleton giants, plague zombies, undead meat grinders, soul-calling lighthouses, etc., all come from the Diya Undead Exhibition.
"The [Diya Undead Exhibition] is open to visitors by invitation only. Those without a certain level of strength and status are not eligible to attend. Only the rich and the noble can attend.
In the previous life, players who wanted to attend the Undead Exhibition had to complete a series of complicated and troublesome pre-tasks before they could get an invitation.
Now that I have an invitation for free, it would be a pity if I don't go."
Since he was here, Qi Ge simply agreed. He smiled and said to Duo Gaosuos who was waiting for his reply:
"God Duo Gaosuos, I am honored to visit the masterpieces of the Diya Undead Wizards.
Thank you for your invitation, I will go now."
"Huhuhu, it's great that you like it, I'll see you off."
Duo Gaosuos waved his hand and summoned a huge bone dragon.
"I wish you a fruitful harvest at the Undead Exhibition."
"Thank you, God."
The seven pigeons rode on the bone dragon and said goodbye to Dogothos.
The bone dragon spread its wings and took off, taking seven pigeons with it to fly to the [Scarlet Building] located in the center of Tianmu City.
[Scarlet Building] is a miraculous building in the capital of Dia, which can greatly increase the production of [Vampires] in the capital and neighboring cities.
In addition, there is space compression inside [Scarlet Building].
The [Scarlet Building], which occupies an area of 5*5, has a total of 130 floors, each floor is more than 500 square meters. Even Diya's palace is located in the [Scarlet Building].
The appearance of the [Scarlet Building] is very strange. It is built on a mountain range, and half of the foundation is not included in the mountain range. It looks small at the bottom and large in the middle.
There are many tower-like buildings on the Scarlet Building. Thick black smoke has been emitting from the largest tower. The black smoke has gathered into black clouds and shrouded the sky above the Scarlet Building. Countless bats are flying around. The black clouds kept moving back and forth.
From a distance, the [Scarlet Building] looks like the legendary Demon King's Territory, which is shocking.
Qige rode the bone dragon and looked down at the scenery of Tianmu City.
Canopy City is located in a wasteland shrouded in the aura of the undead, surrounded by a barren land without any life, only dead silence and silence.
The city wall is ten meters high. From the outside, the city wall is made of black stone. It is tall and strong. The city wall is covered with skeletons.
The city wall of Canopy City is actually alive, and the entire city wall is actually a level 1 and level 9 extremely giant mythical unit called [Wall of Sighs].
It is said that the parts on the ground are just the skeletal tentacles of the [Wall of Sighs], and under the ground, there is the main body a hundred times the size of the city wall.
When the [Wall of Sighs] is fully raised, it can turn into a giant skeletal barrier with a height of one thousand meters, protecting the entire Canopy City within it.
It's a pity that even during the most powerful period of Chaos in the previous life, they did not attack Tianmu City, and the players have never seen the power of [Wall of Sighs].
The architectural style of Canopy City is different from the vitality of Aveli and the mystery of Bracada. The overall style is heavy and silent.
In the imagination of many people, the city of the undead should be gloomy and weird, but in fact, in the aesthetics of the undead wizards, durability is what they value more than fearsome appearance.
Necromancers are immortals, and their perception of time is completely different from that of short-lived species like humans.
If a necromancer tower breaks down once in thirty years, from the perspective of the necromancer, it means that it is constantly breaking down and needs to be repaired at every turn.
Therefore, most towers of the undead will use thick and strong [black bluestone] as the main material.
There are even some high-end undead towers that use a large number of [tombstone rocks] that can automatically absorb the death energy of the undead to repair themselves.
Both [Black Blue Rock] and [Tombstone Rock] are gray-black, and the color is extremely difficult to cover. The dyeing methods commonly used in the Yasha World will not work on them.
This makes the entire Canopy City look particularly monotonous and deep.
Most of the necromancers are dead and never go out unless necessary, so most of the time, people can be seen on the streets of Tianmu City.
But today is an exception.
The streets of Diya are full of undead wizards.
There are pale vampire wizards, corpse wizards covered in bones, zombie wizards with a rotting stench, and ghost wizards in soul form...
Necromancers of various races gathered here, hurriedly moving in the same direction.
They have only one goal, and that is [Scarlet Building], Dia Undead Exhibition!
The bone dragon carried seven pigeons and landed on a necromancy tower in the Scarlet Building. The top of the tower was filled with bone dragons as mounts.
Among the level 7 soldiers in the entire Yasha world, only the bone dragon will be used as a regular mount for other soldiers or heroes.
Even a necromancer who has just become a hero can buy a bone dragon to travel as long as he is rich enough.
This is unimaginable to other level 7 soldiers.
This is also related to Diya's special habits.
In Diya, what determines status is not rank or even force, but wisdom.
An intelligent skeleton soldier has a higher status than an unintelligent bone dragon. The intelligent undead will not regard the unintelligent undead as the same kind.
To them, those without intelligence are no different from heroic soul soldiers.
Because of this, it is not surprising that those bone dragons with lower intelligence become mounts.
Seven pigeons spiraled down from the top of the wizard tower and along the spiral steps built on the inner wall of the wizard tower.
When he passed through an illusory wall, he was suddenly transported into the entrance of the [Scarlet Building].
A large group of elegant vampires are lining up, checking people who want to enter the Scarlet Building one by one.
There are two passages to enter the Scarlet Building, one is the wizard passage for exhibitors, and the other is the VIP passage for visitors.
Different from the crowded wizard passage, the VIP passage was empty and not a single person could be seen.
Under normal circumstances, the person who can take the VIP channel must at least be a legendary hero.
Compared with the vast number of military units, the number of legendary heroes is really too small.
Qi Ge walked towards the VIP aisle.
A high-level vampire wearing a gorgeous robe bent down to say hello to Qi Ge:
“Dear distinguished guests, welcome to [Diya Undead Exhibition].
Please show your strength or present an invitation. "
Qi Ge took out the invitation letter that Duo Gaosuos had given him and handed it to the vampire.
The vampire did not bow his head, but just glanced down.
"Huh?!"
His eyes widened suddenly, and he bowed his head to confirm again, then raised his head and whispered:
"Surprisingly! It turned out to be the guest of the Supreme Lord of the Undead, the Supreme Venerable!
Welcome to your presence!
I am [Vampire Prince] Yuri, I will serve you wholeheartedly.
Please follow me."
Yuri clapped his hands, and a large row of skeleton soldiers wearing heavy golden armor came immediately.
They formed a long passage on the left and right.
"This way."
Yuri bowed respectfully and led the way for Qi Ge, and Qi Ge followed leisurely.
Whenever Qi Ge passed a pair of skeleton soldiers, they would kneel on one knee and bow their heads to salute Qi Ge. After Qi Ge walked away, they would stand up and continue to fulfill their mission of guarding.
The necromancers who were queuing all looked at Qi Ge with eager eyes.
"A VIP has come so early this year? Those legends haven't entered yet, right?"
"There is a breath of life, not a necromancer."
"Is it from another force?"
"I hope it's a rich man. It would be great if he likes my magic eye of observation."
The necromancers talked a lot, and they were all very curious about Qi Ge's identity hidden under the cloak.
For these necromancers of the army and ordinary hero level, if they want to get investment to support their continued research, they can only hope that there are VIPs from outside forces who don't know much about it and "recognize the pearl with their wisdom."
Under Yuri's leadership, Qi Ge walked into the venue of the [Diya Undead Exhibition].
Yuri introduced in a low voice:
"Dear guest, today we have three exhibition areas open in [Diya Undead Exhibition], namely the biological area, war machinery area and magic area.
Among them, the biological area is open for 7 days, and the war machinery area and magic area are limited to today.
Dear guest, which area do you want to visit first?"
Qi Ge thought for a while and said, "You don't have to follow me, I'll just walk around by myself."
"Okay!"
Yuri responded, took out a black hand card, and motioned Qi Ge to put it on his hand.
"This is a contact card. If you need anything, just call my name to the hand card, and I will teleport to serve you immediately."
Qi Ge took the hand card and walked to the magic area without hesitation.
As an apostle of the goddess of magic, Qi Ge has a special magic prayer.
[Magic Prayer] reaches the master level, and Qi Ge's all auxiliary skills related to magic have reached the master level, which of course includes wisdom.
With the master-level wisdom, Qi Ge can even learn level 5 magic.
If the magic guild in the territory wants to produce level 5 magic, the territory must be upgraded to the main city.
To learn magic in the NPC's main city, you have to do many tedious pre-tasks to brush up your reputation.
Now there is finally a convenient opportunity to learn magic, how can Qi Ge miss it.
After saying hello to the vampires around him, Qi Ge was teleported to the magic area of the Undead Exhibition.
There are a total of hundreds of rooms here, and there are magic introductions hanging outside each room.
If someone likes the magic in the room, they can enter the room and communicate and learn with the undead wizard who provides magic.
Depending on the needs of the undead wizard, you can exchange the magic that the other party is interested in or directly spend gold coins to buy the magic learning scroll made by the other party.
Other hero magic books can only hold limited magic. When the capacity of the magic book reaches the upper limit, if you want to learn new magic, you have to forget the old magic.
This is because the magic book is the embodiment of the hero's soul. Everyone's soul has limited carrying capacity, and the higher the level of magic, the more souls it occupies.
But Qi Ge has no such concerns, he has Ziyuan.
He can't learn it himself, so he can give it to Ziyuan. As the darling of magic, Ziyuan's carrying capacity has no upper limit!
"Others come to the magic zone to watch, but I'm different. I'm here to buy goods."
Qi Ge tried to suppress the corners of his mouth that were rising wildly, and prepared to sweep through the houses one by one.
Learn! You can learn it!

"Interesting, put a mark and then use ranged attack to output a round, you can summon a bunch of ghosts around the opponent.

Good, I learned it! ”

…
Qi Ge wandered around the magic area. He learned all the magic he could find.
It must be said that the necromancers are all geniuses.
Among more than a hundred magics, there are only a few that can be seen to be useful at a glance. The others look a bit weird.
[Bone into Arrows

[Bone Wall Spell

[Grim Wind]
Effect: Reduce the morale of all troops on the field by 2 points, lasting for 3 rounds]
...
These magics cannot be said to be useless, but the conditions for use are much more stringent. It is easy to kill yourself without sufficient skills.
But under certain conditions, these magics can often work wonders.
After a round of wandering in the magic area, Qi Ge spent a lot of money and bought all the magic that should be bought, and then came to the war machine area with satisfaction.
Here, all kinds of strange war machines really opened Qi Ge's eyes.
[Zombie Workshop]

[Zombie Ballista

...
Qi Ge selected some war machines that he liked and bought them from them. After returning to the God's Chosen City, the blueprints will be mass-produced and sold to players.
For the current players, each of these war machines is a small artifact.
After visiting the war machine area, Qi Ge finally came to the arms area.
As Diya's most core combat tool, the undead arms have been studied in an endless stream.
The undead who can come to Diya's undead exhibition All the spirit soldiers are carefully selected from countless competitors.

…
What interests Qi Ge most is the undead troops displayed by this hero, which are all related to the forces of Hell.
He asked the necromancer who displayed these [Abyss Undead]:
"Hello, I am very interested in the troops you displayed. Can you mass produce them?"
"Are you really interested? That's great!
I am currently transforming the [Evil God] troops of the Hell forces.
The special skill of the Evil God can permanently transform the corpses of friendly forces into [Evil Ghosts].
This special skill is very interesting, and the effect is similar to our necromancy.
As long as you invest 300,000 gold coins, I promise to unlock the secret of the [Evil God].
Maybe we can create an undead troop that can permanently revive skeletons in battle."
