Chapter 112: Growing Power
The manor was busy for the next few days.
The alchemical puppet worked tirelessly day and night. The formation that originally took a week to complete was completed in 3 days. In addition to the protective formation, Wen Dou also designed several sets of attack formations and early warning formations.
Now, if a thief in stealth mode enters the manor, his stealth will be immediately exposed and an alarm will be triggered.
The natural psychedelic array designed by Chen Xian has also begun to take shape. In order to prevent his people from getting lost, Chen Xian placed instructions at various key points.
These signboards are all alchemical products made by Master Wen Dou. At critical moments, these signboards will indicate the wrong positions according to instructions.
Before I knew it, a week had passed and most of the construction on the manor had been completed.
Wen Dou ordered the old men he brought with him to go back to the Alchemy Hall. He left 100 alchemy puppets behind to continue their work, while the others followed the old men back.
The Alchemist's Guild's help this time was not in vain. Every puppet that followed back had a fifth-order magic crystal on it.
According to Master Wen Dou, if used for attacks and simple daily physical work, the fifth-level magic crystal can be used continuously for a whole year. The key is that the energy storage efficiency of the fifth-level magic crystal is 100%. As long as the magician is diligent enough, these puppets can be used continuously.
Tang Xian'er came back twice this week. Once she delivered medicinal materials and she also helped Chen Xian refine some pills.
This time, Chen Xian refined four furnaces of pills, one furnace each of real Shenyuan Pills and Body-Forging Pills, and one furnace each of fake Shenyuan Pills and Body-Forging Pills.
The number of real pills is still 200 pills per furnace, while the number of fake pills is more than 2000 pills per furnace, and the effect is more than ten times less.
Tang Xianer took the fake pills to a pharmacy to sell. They were called mental pills and physical pills, and were similar to the water of life.
The real pills are kept for the people on their side to use. Tang Xianer has also learned the method of refining fake pills. In addition to medicinal materials, she also needs the water of life given by Chen Xian.
He has already set the tone with Tang Xian'er that the real pill will only be used by their own people in the future, and the fake pill will be sold.
Pills below level five that can instantly restore health are equivalent to having an extra life, so a price tag of several thousand gold coins is reasonable.
But when Tang Xian'er came back the second time, she said that the price of the elixir had increased to 10,000 gold coins. The reason was that not long after the elixir was put on sale, someone bought a large number of them. After the elixir was sold out, it was sold again at a price of 10,000 gold coins, and the profit was higher than that of the pharmacy.
The most important thing is that everyone believes that the resold products are the genuine ones, so they are forced to raise the prices.
Tang Xian'er came back this time mainly to bring back a batch of slaves for purchase, about one or two hundred people.
There are elves, humans from other empires, but the largest group is orcs.
With one or two elves, Chen Xian directly signed a transfer contract.
The remaining humans and orcs cannot sign a contract, as their limitations are all magic collars around their necks.
This collar is similar to a contract, guaranteeing the slave's loyalty. If there is resistance or disobedience, the master can control the collar to contract and tire the slave to death.
In addition to being touched by the corresponding spell, it will automatically explode if you use brute force to break the virginity.
It is currently the best way to control slaves.
Chen Xian looked at the dark-skinned humans and the half-human, half-beast orcs.
"No matter where you come from, I will give you freedom from now on. You can choose to stay and become my follower. By following me, you can have a stable life and also have the opportunity to practice."
The people wearing magic collars looked at Chen Xian silently.
"Of course, you can also choose to leave. I will give each of you 10 gold coins as travel expenses. Go back to your hometown."
There was some agitation among the crowd upon hearing this, but after just a moment, they returned to silence as if they had never heard these words.
"Xian'er, remove everyone's collars."
"Master, this..."
"This is my decision. Anyone who wants to leave will be given 10 gold coins."
Chen Xian was firm in his attitude, so Tang Xian'er had no choice but to agree.
At this moment, violent magical fluctuations came from below.
"Xian'er, I'll leave it to you to arrange. If you are willing to stay, you can stay in the back garden accommodation area."
After saying that, Chen Xian took the two elves to the hot spring below.
After a week of continuous soaking in the water of life, some of the hidden injuries of the 35 elves have healed.
Most of them have rapidly improved their strength and are now close to the fifth level.
Now that they have left the hot spring, Lan'er has assigned them to clean the rooms and organize the daily affairs of the manor.
Only the water elf named Shuiyue and the level 5, level 8 wood elf were still soaking.
Lan'er sensed the magical fluctuations and had already rushed over.
"Lan'er, please arrange for these two elves to go to other rooms to soak in the water of life first."
For convenience, Chen Xian had already converted more than a dozen rooms on this floor into bathing rooms.
The water inside was also replaced with water of life.
Although the pond water collected in the cave where he first met Baozi was almost used up, Chen Xian didn't feel it was a pity at all.
You know, the lowest level of this batch of elves is at level 4, level 3, most of them are around level 4, level 4, and there are three who are around level 8, level like Lan'er at the beginning.
然而这短短一个星期的时间，那三个4阶8级的水精灵已经晋级到五阶了，其他的也都差不多在4阶8级到9级左右。
Once their strength is stabilized, with the use of elixirs, it will take less than a month to create a 30-person fifth-level magician army.
Moreover, Chen Xian had sent someone to deliver a design manuscript of the maid costume to Fengyi Commercial Company. 50 maid costumes were customized. In addition to the uniform style, all the clothes must be made of 5th-level python skin material, and come with magic amplification and defense magic equipment.
He casually gave Wen Dou a batch of animal bones and fifth-level water and wood magic crystals, and asked him to help refine a batch of magic wands.
When everyone reaches the fifth level, including Lan'er, there will be exactly 36 people.
The Tiangang Demon Subduing Formation is just the right place for them to practice. With 36 people coordinating different positions and changes in the formation, the overall combat power can be increased several times.
That way it can compete with legendary professions.
As their individual strength increases, they will be able to compete with saints and god-level professions in the future.
The power of my own trump card is slowly taking shape.
As for the elves that will be rescued in the future, they can be used as backup members of the formation. When there are 72 or 108 people, they can study more powerful formations.
Without spiritual energy, my cultivation is slow. But I have knowledge, and knowledge is power.
The magical fluctuations at this moment came from the wood elf. Green light stretched out from the water and slowly wrapped around her like a vine.
To be on the safe side, Chen Xian activated the protective magic circle of the room.
The previous few breakthroughs almost collapsed the rooms, so Master Wen Dou was asked to bring alchemy puppets to repair the rooms and set up protective formations in all the rooms.
As soon as the formation was activated, the house was wrapped in a strange energy. The water elf next to it also changed. Blue light radiated from its body and merged into the protective formation. The energy shield of the formation also emitted golden light.
After arranging the two new elves, Lan'er returned here and exclaimed when she saw the abnormality of the formation.
"Oh my god, this is the guardian of the water god."
