Chapter 651 Magic and Energy
Chapter 651 Magic and Energy
An unseen enemy, a visible danger—which is more terrifying?
None of that is scary; the dead have nothing to fear!
The Forsaken are not afraid of death, but they fear not being able to take revenge, not being able to survive, and not being able to fulfill their long-cherished wishes... The existence of the undead is inherently against common sense and rules.
In a world of magic and technology, alchemy and monsters, the Plaguebringer & Necromancer are destined to fulfill their mission...
The "godfather" was staring at him coldly.
Your body does not belong to you, and your soul is already broken.
Your value is unique.
You yourself are completely unaware that the whole world is your enemy. You are not well-known in the world simply because you have not made any great fuss, and no one will pay attention to your decaying body.
Only those in the know understand that God's toys, even the old ones, will love their fragmented memories far more than the so-called new generation.
Lorraine wasn't just there for fun; he and his teacher, confident in themselves, dressed in leather pants over wool pants, had surely come to this strange, ambiguous world for a reason...
The answer is ready to come out.
It just takes time and choices for the person involved to understand their situation.
Most people don't know what danger, pain, suffering, and wounds are until they are stabbed themselves.
......
Sparks flew from the two human shields, and Lorraine was sandwiched in the middle, feeling the pressure.
His mind is racing, if he even has a brain.
His eyes scanned the surroundings, up, down, left, and right, if the undead had eyes.
The Eye of the Undead works intermittently, and Lorraine's eye is no longer the original one.
Whether it's the right eye rune replaced by the Necromancer's Rune, or the newly acquired Eye of Frost, Tear of the Ice Dragon, and Lich's Blessing, under the suppression and assistance of the Mirror of Truth, many subtle details can be seen, and even some special features can be perceived.
If we're talking about powerful artifacts, they really are, and there's still a lot of room for improvement. Some of the descriptions are so long they're annoying, but nobody dislikes a powerful artifact.
Is the Mirror of Truth truly powerful? It's merely an aid, with too many limitations and a heavy price to pay. Without the teacher's help, it's just an invisible pair of sunglasses, or even a faded ornament...
The teacher hadn't spoken for a long time. Its eyes, which were actually sunglasses, were a magical artifact composed of the Eye of Light and the Eye of Shadow, and they were always helping their host.
The teacher didn't need to speak; Lorraine was already used to gathering information and assessing her surroundings to find opportunities!
......
In the midst of the chaos, Lorraine had already made her decision.
The area around the crystal passage appears to be a chaotic mess, except for the central section of the somewhat dazzling crystal tube, which remains intact.
In fact, regardless of its surroundings, this is a passageway made of rather special materials.
Since it is a passage mechanism, it must have a fixed structure and be maintained by energy.
"Anything that is inanimate and cannot move must have a point of support. Anything that moves must have a drive shaft."
Time represents the power of corruption; there are no perfect mechanisms, only infinite ideas of wisdom... Wisdom is the fountain of magic, capable of stimulating a great mage to see the truth of all things.
Intelligence is something a mage must possess.
Lorraine's intelligence has always been low. Even after learning the spell of wisdom and having a blue eye rune hanging above her head, Lorraine often doesn't feel the effect of the intelligence boost.
The importance of intelligence only becomes apparent when the battle begins.
Often, seemingly useless accumulations and attributes can realize their true value through energy conversion and specific events... As if afraid that Lorraine would discover the weakness of the Crystal Corridor, just as Lorraine locked onto the suspected source of the cold light emission, in the control room of the underground city, on the black and white flickering electronic screen, instructions and discussion information from thousands of miles away were scrolling.
"Increase the power, don't be stingy with crystals. Yorit and such are just stones. We now have a stable supply. The blood elf mana lattices are even better than the samples given by the ethereal beings!"
"Eternal-level power... no one should be able to withstand it..."
"You have violated the contract, which is strictly prohibited by the Council! You cannot destroy the goods ordered by the client! Infected person zero is no small matter; it is extremely valuable. If it is destroyed, who will repay the Foundation's investment returns?"
......
"Contracts are temporary, and contracts are bound to have loopholes. Who cares about the fine print? The final interpretation rests with the executive committee. Profits depend on the value of the goods themselves... How can you negotiate a good price if you can't demonstrate its value to your customers, my friend?"
“We are proving its value to our clients; the Lich King of the North is no longer unique.”
"The council has already made its decision, gentlemen. Don't worry about it. Pyramid Head will take care of everything for us! The base's security is absolutely guaranteed!"
"Fear is its code name... Trap failed, immediately deploy Pyramid Head!"
A cacophony of voices echoed in the upper control room of the underground city. The cold robot, its eyes flashing with countless streams of data, was accepting the will of individuals and the decisions of merchants.
The pentagram in the Crystal Corridor cannot be infinite; each cut wastes a significant amount of energy reserves.
When the goblins discovered various energy crystals and developed energy devices that transcended the magical age, it meant that the seemingly small goblin minds could create products more powerful than gunpowder.
Driven solely by self-interest, they are capable of all sorts of unbelievable attempts, even subtly influencing the development of the world. They don't enjoy fighting and killing, yet they affect every battle.
The Alliance humans, spouting tales of glory, and the Horde orcs, charging with ferocity, are actually seen by the goblins as mindless brutes... their laborers and sources of gold.
Whether it's the latest goblin bombs, controlling the prices of various supplies and ammunition, the latest vehicles or vehicle parts... the goblin airships that everyone rides, as well as the latest goblin rockets and automated trains, are all products of a new era.
All kinds of advanced engineering blueprints are very valuable... but what actually circulated among the goblins were only low-level versions...
Moreover, the Azeroth Post Office is the real tycoon.
The auction house and the arena are effectively controlled by goblins...
While the Alliance and the Horde fought tooth and nail on the two continents, the goblins, remaining neutral, profited from both sides. Hardworking herbalists and miners toiled away, yet the goblins controlled the prices of herbs and minerals.
Some say this is the age of goblins, and it is.
......
Of course, Lorraine was unaware that someone wanted to capture it.
Little did he know that someone, so confident as he was, had already set a target and a price. To push his price higher, the other party decided to put some pressure on him to see if the so-called plague messenger was truly worth 500,000 gold coins.
Or perhaps they could extract even greater value from the rare death knights who were Lorraine's followers...
Right there in the core passage leading to the second level of the underground city...
However, the arrogant goblins may not realize that the Plaguebringer would never tolerate being manipulated, except for his adoptive father...
