Chapter 22: Advanced Magic Fountain
When the magic fountain was drained again.
Lin Yi consumed another 10,000 energy crystals to upgrade the level of the magic fountain.
The advanced magic spring can condense high-purity elven spring water.
The effect is more than ten times stronger than low-level elf spring water.
As usual, Lin Yi ordered the elves to drain the elven spring water that was "refreshed" in the magic spring, because a full magic spring would not condense elven spring water.
After it is drawn out, the elf spring water will condense continuously.
In a short while, hundreds of oversized wooden barrels were piled up in the square.
Each wooden barrel is filled with elf spring water.
"With so much spirit spring water, let alone ten thousand spirits, even if there are a hundred thousand spirits, it can be used for a long time."
Lin Yi turned to the elf hunters and said, "Remember to seal these barrels to prevent the life and natural magic contained in the elven spring water from dissipating."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We will seal it carefully."
The elven huntresses obeyed the order respectfully.
Lin Yi then checked the building information of the Magic Fountain.
【Magic Fountain】
[Building information: A special territory building of the elf camp. ]
[Level: Advanced]
[Currently, high-level elf spring water can be produced, and the overflow period of the spring water is seven days. ]
[Upgrade requirements: 100,000 energy crystals]
[Special Tips: By increasing the level of the Magic Spring, you can obtain higher purity Spirit Spring Water. When the building level reaches the maximum level, you can condense the Holy Water of Life. ]
…
"The overflow period has been extended, which is normal. After all, the scale of the Magic Spring has expanded many times and can hold more elven spring water."
"Also, there are only four levels of territory buildings."
"Low level, mid level, high level, and top level."
"Just one more level, and the Magic Fountain will be at full level."
"It's just that the consumption is a bit high. It requires a full 100,000 energy crystals."
"And even if I had 100,000 energy crystals, I would still upgrade the Tree of Life to its maximum level first..."
Although the Holy Water of Life can revive the old tree and allow Lin Yi to have two trees of life that can give birth to elves, its cost-effectiveness is obviously not as good as the tree of life that is used to upgrade his own territory.
Because the Tree of Life has reached its maximum level, it can give birth to a full ten thousand elves every day.
Even if both trees of life reached advanced levels, they could only give birth to two thousand elves in total.
The cost-effectiveness is naturally higher when upgrading the Tree of Life.
"Let's take it step by step."
"After all, it's just one after the other, there's no rush."
Lin Yi then came to the ancient war tree and trained all the remaining 7,000 energy crystals into elven soldiers, obtaining a total of more than 100 elven archers and elven swordsmen.
At this point, the number of elven troops under his command reached nearly two thousand five hundred.
It’s still early.
Lin Yi left the territory and entered the ruins.
Now that he has been promoted to the king level, there are almost no monsters in the ruins that can threaten him.
At least not in the inner city.
Even if it was the zombie king from last night, he could send it to the underworld with just a roar of fire dragon.
…
Lin Yi walked on the weed-covered street.
The roadsides were lined with ruined buildings, some of which had completely collapsed.
Along the way, he did not encounter any magical beasts or monsters, because this area had been cleared by the elf army under his command.
After walking for several thousand meters, Lin Yi finally heard the sound of fighting.
When we got closer, we found that it was a team of elves fighting.
The entire team is made up of nearly a hundred elves, including elves of four professions: swordsman, archer, magician, and huntress.
Their formation is very strict and orderly.
The elven swordsman is in front.
The Elf Archer and Elf Magician are behind.
The elven female hunter rode a swift leopard and wandered around the periphery of the team, occasionally infiltrating the enemy's formation to disrupt the enemy's formation.
Once most enemies get around the rear of the team, the elven huntresses will retreat immediately and protect the elven archers and elven magicians behind the formation together with the elven swordsmen.
Lin Yi watched for a long time, but did not see any enemy that could break through the line of this elf team.
"The elves trained by the system do have rich combat experience."
“However, there is still a slight flaw.”
"That means the defense is not strong enough."
"Among the four elf professions, only the elven swordsman can be considered a melee soldier. They bear most of the pressure from the enemy. Once the defense line is breached, the elven archers and elven magicians in the rear will be in trouble."
“Of course, this problem can be solved well.”
"One is to unlock the ancient tree and train tree warriors and forest giants."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"The second is to upgrade the ancient war tree and unlock new elf professions..."
Lin Yi watched for a moment, then bypassed the battlefield and continued to go deeper into the ruins.
The enemy that this elf team is fighting against is a large group of giant swamp rats.
There are hundreds of them, which is not a small scale.
However, they are not very strong and are generally low-level monsters. They pose no threat to his elves, so he naturally does not need to take action.
…
We walked several hundred meters further through the ruins...
There was a sudden sharp sound above my head.
It was a gray-black owl, circling high in the sky.
The screech is a warning.
It was reporting to Lin Yi that enemies appeared nearby.
Sure enough, not long after, a slight noise was heard from the ruins of a building in the distance.
Although they were more than two hundred meters apart, they still could not escape Lin Yi's spiritual perception.
The sound came from far away.
Soon, a group of fat swamp rats appeared in Lin Yi's sight.
There are about thirty of them, most of which are level two and level three.
Lin Yi obviously didn't take this level of Warcraft monster seriously. He casually threw a fireball with a diameter of several meters, which killed the giant swamp rats instantly.
Only three or five giant swamp rats managed to escape the scorching fire waves, and they immediately ran away with their heads in their hands.
After collecting the exploded energy crystals, Lin Yi continued to go deeper.
About an hour later, Lin Yi successfully arrived at the area where the City Lord's Mansion was located.
The original city lord's mansion is no longer visible, only ruins remain.
The reason why he knew that the City Lord's Mansion was located here was because Lao Shu told him the history of the ancient city. A shocking war once broke out here.
"There's a bone temple?"
At this time, Lin Yi discovered that on the ruins of the City Lord's Mansion stood a temple of bones.
The bone temple is built with the bones of various creatures and is quite large.
"This bone palace must have been built by the Zombie King."
"But now the temple is deserted."
Lin Yi looked around. Not to mention the Zombie King and the group of high-level undead, even ordinary undead were nowhere to be seen.
"This run is too decisive."
“We don’t even want the newly built base camp.”
Lin Yi actually admired the Zombie King's decisiveness, or rather, his caution.
Not only did he not participate in last night's battle, but now he has even abandoned his lair and no one knows where he has fled to.
This guy is too steady! "Let's go check if there are any relics left in the treasury first."
