BXBX NOVEL Chapter 78 - 78, Mage Tower j
Fang Hao held the magic wand, elation filling his heart.
This trip was indeed not in vain, yielding a fine piece of purple equipment. Having drank the Magic Revelation Potion, Fang Hao’s body began to accept and sense magic elements more easily.
If there were no other circumstances, Fang Hao might well embark on the path of a magic summoner.
And this purple magic wand would be perfect for him.
After the excitement, Fang Hao turned his attention to the bones lying nearby. “Move the skeleton outside.”
Two skeletons approached to lift the bone remains from the vine chair.
But just as the surface contact started, the body crumbled like powder, leaving only the skull leaning against the back of the vine chair, now integrated with it. Alas! Fang Hao sighed faintly.
There are requirements for transformation, and the most important is the integrity of the body.
It is not enough to just retrieve a part, or a piece of a limb, to carry out transformation.
“Bury the skeleton along with the vine chair in the courtyard.” At the back of the Stone Tower, there is a rather large courtyard.
Since the deceased had been obsessed with this city in life, it should be their wish to remain here.
The two skeletons didn’t attempt to touch the remaining skull this time, but moved it out together with the vine chair.
“Alright, search each room to see if there are any valuable items,” Fang Hao commanded his other skeletons.
The skeletons quickly scattered, conducting a room-by-room search.
Soon, a gold treasure chest was tossed in front of Fang Hao.
Could it be another mage skill?
Thinking this, he directly opened the treasure chest.
With a flash of light, the reward appeared.
[Received: Blueprints for Mage Tower, Timber Processing Plant, Root Magic Wand; Pages from the Elemental Codex; 50 Mithril, and 142 Warfire Coins.] One flash of light after another invited astonishment from Fang Hao. Him receiving the Starfire Wand had already given him a huge surprise. The emergence of so many blueprints now was like icing on the cake.
He had received gold chests before.
But compared with these rewards, whatever was inside those chests was far less superior, whether in terms of grade or practicality.
One could say that this relic exploration was more than worth it.
He started inspecting the rewards from the chest.
[Mage Tower Blueprints (blue)]
[Category: Building Blueprints]
[Construction Materials: 3500 wood, 2200 stones, 320 leather, 400 hemp ropes, 120 mithril, 20 perfect essence]
(Description: Consume faction items to recruit a ranged mage class.) Upon seeing this blueprint, the Soul Fire in Fang Hao’s pupils flickered slightly. This was exactly what he needed.
A building that could recruit long-range troops.
After recruiting mages, he could remedy the absence of long-range units in his army, making it more diversified.
He then looked at the second blueprint.
[Timber Processing Factory Blueprint (Green)]
[Category: Building Blueprints]
[Required Materials: 2800 wood, 800 stones, 550 straw, 320 leather, 400 hemp ropes, 85 metal parts.]
(Description: Through synthesis and processing, the wood that has been mined can be made into harder and sturdier tough wood.)
Good gracious!
There it was, the last required material for upgrading the lord’s territory had finally appeared.
For the fifth level Lord’s Hall, not only are stone bricks required but also tough wood.
Prior to this, Fang Hao had always assumed that tough wood was also made from a blueprint, and could be produced once he had the blueprint.
Now it seems that tough wood requires factory processing, and isn’t as simple as just using the Book of Lords to make it.
But that’s fine, after returning Fang Hao can arrange for people to get down to processing; there should be ample manpower in his territory.
[Wooden Wand Blueprint (Green)]
[Category: Wand]
[Materials Required: Sturdy Wood 1, Iron 1, Essence of Magic 2, Mithril 2.] (Description: A general-purpose magic wand made from a variety of materials. It is effective in amplifying magic.)
Not bad at all.
But it’s far less impressive compared to his own wand.
In terms of both properties and appearance, the Starfire excels.
That shimmering flame gem, as big as half a fist, exudes an aura of wealth wherever it goes.
[Elemental Scripture Fragment]
[Category: Torn Pages of the Scripture]
[Ability: Damage+1% for Air, Earth, Water, Fire Elemental Magic, number of summoned spirits +1.]
(Description: Ancient scripture fragment, collecting all fragments will yield the complete scripture’s magic.)
Peculiar treasures are plentiful.
Another chapter fragment of the scripture popped up.
Why are the people of this world so shaky, tearing up good stuff into pieces? Fang Hao sorted everything and then walked down from the Stone Tower directly.
He looked at the sky, it was probably around three or four in the afternoon. He had been busy since the morning when he set off from his territory.
The other skeletons located in the Stone Tower and various corners of the city also found numerous resources.
Iron, copper, and other durable materials, as well as rare materials such as mithril and Essence of Magic, were collected.
These mages seemed to have collected these rare materials.
All of them were moved out.
Additional Nightstones disassembled from the Stone Tower and assorted silver and copper items were also collected.
Only after everything was sorted did Fang Hao wave his hand, letting everyone return with the loot.
Bolton, who seemed half-asleep, looked completely surprised when he saw them return loaded with goods.
After identifying the skeleton possessed by Fang Hao, he immediately stepped forward, “Sir, you’ve returned.”
“Yes, let’s go back to the Pigmen Village.” Fang Hao then led the large group towards the Pigmen Village.
They all hurried along with their heads down, moving faster than when they came.
Soon, the Pigmen Village was in sight.
Outside the village, a few pigmen were gathering resources.
As soon as the village was in sight, Fang Hao issued a forward command to all of the skeleton soldiers.
He himself then de-activated the God’s Presence and woke up in his room. After stepping outside, he directed the 500 skeleton soldiers guarding the door to return to their respective posts.
“Lord, you have come out.” Seeing Fang Hao, Petty walked over.
“Yes, this time’s loot, I have reserved a Nightstone chandelier for you.” Fang Hao replied as he walked outside.
Nightstone is not any ordinary stone.
As per the market price, it’s quite expensive. Most forces prefer to use candles, as natural ores like Nightstone are difficult to purchase.
“Oh, thank you, sir.” Petty immediately thanked him.
The two of them then arrived at the entrance of the village.
From a distance, they saw the densely packed skeleton army rapidly approaching.
“Prepare the cart.” Fang Hao ordered.
“Oh, alright.”
In no time, the skeleton army arrived at the village entrance. The skeletons carrying the loot deposited their goods in the village warehouse, while the rest of the skeletons were stationed outside the village.
Fang Hao picked up the obtained skill scrolls and blueprints for his personal study and also for the Book of Lords’ collection.
[Successfully learned skills: Mist Wrap, Elemental Guardian (Air), Fire Arrow.] [Book of Lords Included blueprints: Tailor Shop Construction Blueprint, Mage
Tower Construction Blueprint, Timber Processing Factory Construction
Blueprint, Wooden Wand Crafting Blueprint.]
[Book of Lords Special Collection: Taming Contract (Green), Elemental Scripture Fragment.]
Beams of light flickered and merged with his body and the Book of Lords..
