Monster Minotaur

Mo Yan has always been curious about magic. After all, as a person from the technological world, magic only appears in legends. The alchemy of turning stone into gold, the forbidden magic of summoning meteorites to wash the ground, and the magic of short-distance teleportation. These legendary magics interested Mo Yan very much. If possible, Mo Yan hopes to use his inexplicable power to exchange for 30 million Little Yellow Books' magic.

But the fact made Mo Yan very frustrated. He had no possibility of using magic. According to Vivian's words, Mo Yan's magic resistance made the magic elves, which are the basis of magic, hate Mo Yan. The inability to communicate with magic elves destined Mo Yan to miss magic.

The same tragedy is the Salt people, because although the Salt people are not rejected by the magic elves, they are not close to the Salt people. The worship of the God of War makes them physically strong, but also makes them inherently inaccessible to magic. And because of Ellan's special situation, almost no magicians are willing to come here. Most of the monsters that can use magic are low-level things that cannot cause much damage.

So in the eyes of the Salt people, magic became something flashy. Although it looks powerful, its actual lethality is limited. As long as you have a sensitive body, it is not impossible to avoid those magics.

It was precisely because of this that when Mo Yan sent people to post notices recruiting mages in various cities, all the Salt people saw a big joke, because there were no magicians in Elan. For a period of time, Mo Yan had considered asking the drow mages below to move to Thunder Bluff. As long as a dark basement was built, the problem of drow being unable to see the light would be solved.

But the replies from the drow denied Mo Yan's idea. Because the drow's magic has adapted to the darkness for a long time, many things will become ineffective even if it is placed on the ground. Because the spellcasting environment they need can only be met underground.

Mo Yan didn't understand magic and didn't know whether the drow's statement was correct, but Lilith confirmed this statement. Many factions have different requirements for their magic. The drow have been underground for too long, and it is not impossible that their magic has developed towards the underground environment.

And just when Mo Zang was about to give up and recruit a mage in a short period of time, an old man appeared in front of him consciously. It can be said that you can become the official mage of Thunder Bluff without requiring any treatment, and according to Vivian's confirmation, this mage has good strength.

Don't you know that your appearance makes you look suspicious? Mo Yan sat at the main seat in the living room and looked at the old man in front of him and said: A powerful mage, who traveled thousands of miles from Ma Luo Go to Elam. Can you become a magician of a monster without any requirements? Such a good thing can only exist in dreams.

Haha... the old man stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: Of course I also know that making appropriate requests will make me look more like a mage. The same is true for the officials of Maro. They are always wary of me, thinking I am a spy from another country.

So, this is your special side. Mo Yan shook his head after listening to the old man's words and said: No rational person would believe that such a good thing would happen. The fact that you are here means that there must be something here. What you need.

Yes. The old man nodded and said: I am a wandering mage. I am very curious about the strange things happening on the mainland. I stayed in Maruo City for nearly three years just to study The buried elven ruins under Maro City, unfortunately, because of their precautions, it took me three years to see everything there.

Then the method you used must not be a formal method. Mo Yan smiled and said: If that relic is very important, they will not show it to a mage who can run around. After all, it is their wealth.

It took some effort. The old man smiled and nodded. It took me a year to figure out the patterns of the people who were watching me. It also took me a year to find out the underground roads. I finished researching the elven ruins in the last year. But it was cost-effective. I discovered a lot of ancient magic from the ruins, including some lost enchantment magic.

Then what is there that interests you here? Mo Yan said, There are no relics in Elan. I heard that even magic items are very rare.

Haha... there are very wonderful things here. The old man looked straight at Mo Yan and said: When I was in Maro, I heard in the tavern that there was a city in Elam founded by monsters, and the ruler of that city was A tauren. Others regard this as the delusion of the young businessman, but I think it’s no big deal if I want to take a look. I’m curious when the tauren also possess such high wisdom and strength.”

Then are you planning to dissect me? Mo Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, If this is your purpose, then you will be disappointed. I am not in the habit of using my own brain as payment.

I'm not that kind of evil mage. The mage shook his head and said, First of all, the magic I practice is elemental, and I don't know much about things like anatomy. And I don't like forcing others to hand over things they don't want to do. I prefer to exchange things of equal value like an alchemist.

I can help you build the city's defense for free, and help you make some magic items for free. I just need you to cooperate with me in doing some experiments. Those experiments will not even harm your health.

An opportunity to be a guinea pig in exchange for the help of an archmage? It seems to be a worthwhile thing. After all, the mage also promised that they are all safe experiments. But Mo Yan was not moved. As a rather skeptical person, Mo Yan would not agree to allow himself to do experiments that he did not understand at all.

Then please forgive me for refusing. Mo Yan refused without mercy: Even so, I don't have the slightest interest. After all, I don't understand magic. I have no way of knowing whether your so-called safe experiment is what you think. It sounds so safe. And in terms of city security, I think I can do pretty well without the help of magic.

Haha... The mage was not disappointed by Mo Yan's rejection. He was too familiar with such rejections after wandering in various countries for a long time, so the mage stood up, picked up his staff and said, Then I can also apply for the job you are recruiting. It's a job, isn't it? I can still accept the salary of three hundred gold coins.

You really won't give up until you achieve your goal. For such a request, Mo Yan did not refuse. After all, it is not always possible to meet a Zhongyuan mage, so he smiled and said: Lilith took the contract documents. Come and bring the right one...I haven’t asked for your name yet.”

My name is Rezner. The old man took the document handed over by the succubus, signed his name without looking at it, and said, You can also call me Rezner. I saw that your city is under construction. Castle, I think your mage tower must not be built yet, I think I can give you some guidance, after all, the foundation of the mage tower has many requirements.

Actually, there is no design for the mage tower at all. Mo Yan shrugged and said, But since you brought it up, I think adding a single tower on the periphery will not affect the appearance. I will leave this matter to you. Come and do it. By the way, after completing the registration, can you come and talk to me about urban defense? When I just said that I can do it, your expression seemed a little subtle.

Haha... Ruiz nodded and said, Wait a minute, I will come and explain to you how cities in the Central Plains build defenses.

After Ruiz established the file in Mo Yan's archives, he talked with Mo Yan in the living room until late at night. Obviously, Ryze was also very curious about what Mo Yan could do with the talking tauren, so he would insert some very philosophical words into the conversation from time to time to see how Mo Yan understood the world. Unknowingly, Mo Yan had already begun An experiment was started.

In Ruiz's words, cities in the Central Plains countries have independent magic circles to protect the entire city. The magic circle will not be activated in normal times, but will be activated once a war sieges the city, resonating with the branch magic circles all over the city wall, forming a shield that can resist the opponent's spells and trebuchets.

Sieges in the Central Plains war were not like in Elam, where one could climb the opponent's wall as long as they had siege equipment. A large number of magic traps scattered on the city walls will put the attackers into extreme trouble and be killed by the defending army. These magic facilities require magic to be lifted.

Therefore, wars in the Central Plains often lasted for several weeks. On the offensive side, rune stones will be used continuously to attack the city's shield and consume the city's power. Although sometimes there are people who let soldiers with elimination scrolls ignore the shields and directly attack the city walls, they often pay huge losses.

Therefore, siege warfare in the Central Plains depends on whether the shield of the defending city is strong enough, or whether the attacking side has prepared enough trebuchets and spellcasting materials.

I see. Mo Yan nodded and said, It seems that the Salt people are really weak.
