[Mist Converter Design
Architectural drawings
Area: 3*3
Required materials: 20,000 gold coins, 400 wood, 500 ore, 200 each of level 2 resources, 60 level 3 ghost wood, 30 level 4 underworld stone... 10 level 5 mountain copper
Effect: After construction is completed, it can slowly absorb the nearby chaos fog and transform it into the death energy of the undead. 】
Qi Ge stared at the [Mist Converter Design Drawing] and felt a little complicated for a moment.
Just as Duogosos said, the current [Mist Converter] is still just a prototype.
It has all the characteristics that an experimental product should have - expensive, special, complicated and impractical.
A large number of complex machines and undead magic arrays make up this huge and bulky [quasi-building].
The reason why it is a [quasi-building] is that although the [Mist Converter] has some characteristics of a building, it cannot be self-contained like a normal building.
All the [buildings] in the Seven Pigeons Territory that are approved by the Mother Goddess have one thing in common, that is [perfection].
The damage caused by attacks on these buildings will only deduct the armor value of the building, but will not make the building's functions ineffective or partially destroy the building.
The [Mist Converter] is different. The complex and sophisticated [Mist Converter] is a pseudo-building formed by splicing together hundreds of materials engraved with undead magic arrays.
If any one of the materials is moved slightly, the entire [Mist Converter] will become ineffective.
When all materials are placed correctly and there are no errors, the [Mist Converter] will be able to function properly, and this is a [quasi-building].
Duo Gaosos's small request is that he wants the Seven Pigeons to help him perfect the [Mist Converter] into a [perfect] building.
Qi Ge agreed without thinking too much, which made Duo Gaosuo Si very happy.
But when Qi Ge asked Aged afterwards, he found out that although there is only one word difference between [quasi-architecture] and [architecture], the difference is greater than the difference between [female teacher] and [female teacher].
Converting a [quasi-building] into a [building] with the same function is more difficult than creating a new building.
After Qi Ge learned the details, he realized how big the sinkhole was.
In reality, the first electronic digital integrator in human history was called ENIAC.
ENIAC is 30.48 meters long, 6 meters wide and 2.4 meters high, covering an area of ​​approximately 170 square meters. It has a total of 30 operating tables and weighs 30 tons.
It is equivalent to a nearly solid four-bedroom, one-living-room house.
To transform the [Mist Converter] into a [Building] is equivalent to turning ENIAC into a computer host commonly used by people in the 22nd century.
This is a task that in reality has taken human civilization as a whole more than 160 years to accomplish.
In desperation, Qi Ge could only return to find Duo Gaosos, return the design drawings of the [Mist Converter], and said that he really could not do anything.
However, Duogosos cheerfully rejected the Seven Pigeons' request and said:
"Oops. I was just joking , don't take it too seriously.
I'll leave this design with you. I believe in your luck and potential. What if you can make it someday?
Even if you can't figure it out, I won't blame you, so don't feel any psychological pressure."
Now that things have come to this, Qi Ge had no choice but to put this hot potato aside.
Just as Qi Ge said goodbye to Duo Gaosuosi again and was about to go find the Red Lady's maids, Duo Gaosuosi smiled and said to Qi Ge:
"Oh right. Qi Ge, it's quite a coincidence that you came here. Recently, our Tianmu City is holding the [Diya Ghost Exhibition] which is held every three years.
If you are interested, you can go and have a look.”
As Duogosos spoke, he handed Qi Ge an invitation letter with a black background and gold edges. There was no text on it, only a golden dragon skull.
Diya Undead Exhibition, also known among players as the Undead Technology Fair.
This is the grandest gathering of Diya's undead wizards.
Undead wizards from all over Diya come here with the results of their research over the years or even decades.
Trade fair, trade fair, one is for exhibition, the other is for sale.
On the one hand, these necromancers will display their research results and provide reference for other necromancers with similar research directions.
On the other hand, they will also package their own research results and attract investment from visiting guests, asking them to invest in their own research, or simply sell their research results directly.
Many of the famous Asian army units, war machines, and buildings, including skeleton giants, plague zombies, undead meat grinders, soul-calling lighthouses, etc., all come from the Diya Undead Exhibition.
“The Diya Ghost Exhibition is open to visitors only by invitation. People without a certain level of strength and status are not eligible to attend. Only the rich and the noble can attend.
In the past, players who wanted to participate in the Undead Exhibition had to complete a series of complicated and troublesome pre-tasks before they could get an invitation letter.
Now that I have an invitation for free, it would be a shame if I didn’t go.”
Since he was already here, Qi Ge simply agreed. He smiled and said to Duo Gaosuosi who was waiting for his reply:
“Lord Duogosos, I am honored to be able to visit the masterpieces of the Diya necromancers.
Thank you for your invitation, I will go now. "
"Huhuhu, it's great that you like it. I'll take you there."
Duo Gaosuosi waved his hand and summoned a huge bone dragon.
“I wish you a fruitful harvest at the Exhibition of the Dead.”
"Thank you, God."
The seven pigeons rode on the bone dragon and said goodbye to Duogosos.
The bone dragon spread its wings and took off, carrying seven pigeons to the Scarlet Building in the center of Sky Curtain City.
[Scarlet Building] is a miracle building in the capital of Diya, which can greatly increase the production of [vampires] in the capital and neighboring cities.
In addition, there is space compression inside the [Scarlet Building].
The Scarlet Building covers an area of ​​5*5 and has a total of 130 floors. Each floor is over 500 square meters. Even Diya’s palace is located in the Scarlet Building.
The appearance of the Scarlet Building is very peculiar. It is built on a mountain, and half of its foundation is submerged in the mountain. It looks small at the bottom and large in the middle.
There are many tower-like buildings on the Scarlet Building. The largest tower has been emitting thick black smoke. The black smoke gathers into black clouds, covering the sky above the Scarlet Building. Countless bats are constantly flying through the black clouds.
From a distance, the Scarlet Building looks like the legendary Demon Lord's territory, which is suddenly frightening.
Qi Ge rode on the bone dragon and looked down at the scenery of Tianmu City.
Sky Curtain City is located in a wasteland shrouded in the deathly aura of the undead. It is surrounded by barren land without any vitality, only death and silence.
The city wall is ten meters high. From the outside, it looks like it is made of black stone. It is tall and solid, and the wall is covered with skeletons.
The wall of Tianmu City is actually alive. The entire wall is actually a level 1, rank 9 giant mythical soldier called [Wall of Sighs].
It is said that the part above the ground is just the skeletal tentacles of the [Wall of Sighs], and beneath the ground, there is a main body that is a hundred times larger than the wall.
When the [Wall of Sighs] is fully raised, it can transform into a giant bone barrier that is a thousand meters high, protecting the entire Sky Dome City.
It’s just a pity that even during the most powerful period of Chaos in the previous life, it failed to attack Sky Curtain City, and players have never seen the power of the [Wall of Sighs].
The architectural style of the Sky Dome City is different from the vibrant Avili and the mysterious Bracada. It is generally heavy and quiet.
In many people's imagination, the city of the dead should be gloomy and weird, but in fact, in the aesthetics of necromancers, durability is what they value more than a frightening appearance.
Necromancers are all immortal, and their perception of time is completely different from that of short-lived species like humans.
If a necromancer's tower breaks down once every thirty years, the necromancer would think that it is constantly malfunctioning and needs to be repaired all the time.
Therefore, most of the undead towers use thick and solid [Black Rock] as the main material.
There are even some advanced undead towers that use a large amount of [Tombstone Rock] that can absorb the death energy of the undead to repair themselves.
Both the [Black Blue Rock] and the [Tombstone Rock] are gray-black in color, and the colors are extremely difficult to cover. The dyeing methods commonly used in the Yasha world are ineffective on them.
This makes the entire Sky Curtain City look particularly monotonous and gloomy.
Most of the necromancers are homebodies who never go out unless necessary, so most of the time, people can be seen on the streets of Sky Curtain City.
But today is an exception.
The streets of Diya are full of undead wizards.
There are pale-faced vampire wizards, corpse wizards covered in bones, rotting and smelly zombie wizards, and ghost wizards in the form of souls...
Undead mages of various races gathered here, moving hurriedly in the same direction.
They have only one goal, and that is the [Scarlet Building], the Diya Undead Exhibition!
The bone dragon carrying seven pigeons landed on an undead sorcery tower in the Scarlet Building. The top of the tower was filled with bone dragons that served as mounts.
Among all the level 7 soldiers in the entire Yasa world, only the Bone Dragon will be used as a regular mount for other soldiers or heroes.
Even a necromancer who has just become a hero can buy a bone dragon for transportation as long as he is rich enough.
This is unimaginable to other level 7 soldiers.
This is also related to Diya's special habits.
In Diya, what determines one's status is not rank or even military strength, but wisdom.
An intelligent skeleton soldier has a higher status than a dumb bone dragon. Intelligent undead will never regard dumb undead as their own kind.
To them, their fellow tribesmen who lacked intelligence were no different from the Heroic Spirit soldiers.
Because of this, it is not surprising that bone dragons with lower intelligence become mounts.
Seven pigeons flew down from the top of the wizard tower along the spiral staircase built on the inner wall of the wizard tower.
When he passed through an illusory wall, he was instantly teleported into the entrance of the Scarlet Building.
A large group of elegant vampires are standing in a row, checking everyone who wants to enter the Scarlet Building one by one.
There are two entrances to the Scarlet Building, one is the wizard channel for exhibitors, and the other is the VIP channel for visitors.
In stark contrast to the packed wizard passage, the VIP passage was completely empty, with not a single person to be seen.
Under normal circumstances, those who can use the VIP channel must at least be legendary heroes.
Compared with the vast number of military types, the number of legendary heroes is really too small.
Qi Ge walked towards the VIP channel.
A high-ranking vampire in a gorgeous robe bowed to Qi Ge and said hello:
“Dear guests, welcome to the [Diya Ghost Exhibition].
Please show your strength or show me your invitation letter."
Qi Ge took out the invitation letter given to him by Duo Gaosuos and handed it to the vampire.
The vampire didn't lower his head, but just glanced downward.
"Um?!"
His eyes suddenly widened, and he lowered his head to confirm again, then raised his head and whispered:
“To my surprise! He is the guest of the Supreme Lord of the Undead, the Supreme Venerable!
Welcome!
I am [Vampire Prince] Yuri, and I will serve you wholeheartedly.
Please follow me."
Yuri clapped his hands, and a large row of skeleton soldiers wearing golden heavy armor immediately came over.
They formed a long passage, one on the left and one on the right.
"This way, please."
Yuri bowed respectfully and led the way for Qige, who followed leisurely.
Whenever the Seven Pigeons walked past a pair of skeleton soldiers, they would kneel on one knee and bow their heads to salute the Seven Pigeons. Only after the Seven Pigeons walked away would they stand up and continue to fulfill their mission of guarding.
The undead wizards who were queuing all looked sideways and looked at Qi Ge with eager eyes.
"A distinguished guest has arrived so early this year? Those legends haven't entered yet, right?"
"There is a breath of life, not a ghost."
"Is it from another force?"
"I hope he's a wealthy man. It would be great if he's interested in my Magic Eyes of Observation."
The necromancers were talking about it, all of them were very curious about the identity of Qi Ge hidden under the cloak.
For these soldiers and ordinary hero-level undead wizards who want to get investment to support their continued research, they can only hope that some VIPs from external forces who are not familiar with the business will "recognize their talent".
Under Yuri's leadership, Qi Ge walked into the venue of the [Diya Undead Exhibition].
Yuri introduced in a low voice:
“Dear guest, our [Diya Undead Exhibition] has three exhibition areas open today, namely the Biological Area, the War Machinery Area, and the Magic Area.
The biological area is permanent for 7 days, while the war machinery area and magic area are limited to today.
Dear guest, which area would you like to visit first? "
Qi Ge thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to follow me. I can just wander around by myself."
"Okay!"
Yuri responded, took out a black hand card, and motioned for the Seven Pigeons to put it on his hand.
"This is a contact card. If you need anything, just call my name at the card in your hand and I will be transferred to serve you immediately."
Qi Ge took the cards and walked towards the magic area without hesitation.
As the apostle of the Goddess of Magic, Qi Ge has special magical prayer skills.
[Magic Prayer] reaches the master level, and all of Qi Ge's auxiliary skills related to magic have reached the master level, which of course includes wisdom.
With the master-level wisdom, Qi Ge can even learn level 5 magic.
If the magic guild in the territory wants to release level 5 magic, the territory must be upgraded to the main city.
If you go to the NPC's main city to learn magic, you have to complete many tedious pre-tasks to increase your reputation.
Now that there is finally a convenient opportunity to learn magic, how could Qi Ge miss it?
After saying hello to the vampires around him, Qi Ge was instantly teleported to the magical area of ​​the Undead Exhibition.
There are about a hundred rooms here, and there is a magic introduction hanging outside each room.
If someone is interested in the magic in the room, they can enter the room and communicate and learn from the necromancer who provides the magic.
Depending on the needs of the necromancer, you can exchange the magic that the other party is interested in or directly spend gold coins to purchase the magic learning scrolls made by the other party.
The magic that other heroes' magic books can hold is limited. When the capacity of the magic book reaches the upper limit, if you want to learn new magic, you have to forget the old magic.
This is because the magic book is the embodiment of the hero's soul. Each person's soul has a limited carrying capacity, so the higher the level of magic, the more souls it occupies.
But Qi Ge doesn’t have this concern because he has Ziyuan.
He can't learn it himself, so he can teach it to Shion. As a darling of magic, Shion's carrying capacity has no upper limit!
"Others come to the magic area to watch, but I'm different. I'm here to buy goods."
Qi Ge tried hard to suppress the wildly rising corners of his mouth and prepared to sweep through each house one by one.
Learn! You can learn anything!
[Mark of the Dead
Level 3 magic: Earth and Undead.

…

"Interesting, after placing a mark and then using ranged attacks for a round, you can summon a bunch of ghosts around the opponent.
The ghost stays close to the body and makes it impossible for ranged soldiers to shoot.
This is a good magic that can limit the opponent's ranged forces.
Learned it! "
…

Effect: Can only be used against Undead soldiers.
After use, it will revive a certain number of troops at the end of each round.

"This is equivalent to the BUFF version of the magic of gathering spirits!
Although the resurrection points are not as many as the Soul Gathering Magic (magic power * 50 + 160), it is more durable and can free up opportunities to cast spells, without wasting time to resurrect every round.
Good, I learned it! "

When all members of this troop are killed, the same number of ghost horses (level 2, order 1) will be automatically summoned.
Cannot be used on cavalry units. 】
…
Qi Ge wandered around the magic area and learned all the magic that he could find.
I have to say that necromancers are all geniuses.
Among the more than one hundred magic spells, there are actually only a few that are really useful at first glance, and the others look a bit weird.
【Turning Bones into Arrows
Effect: Only effective for our ranged soldiers, kill 10% of them and refill their ammunition. 】
Bone Wall Technique
Effect: Summons a 1*9 bone wall, which can be attacked, and each grid has 20 health points. 】
【Corpse Explosion
Effect: Detonate a group of corpses, causing damage equal to 10% of the total HP of the corpses to all surrounding targets. 】
【The Wind is Strong
Effect: Reduces the morale of all troops by 2 points, lasting for 3 rounds]
…
It’s not that these magics are useless, but the conditions for using them are much more stringent. Without sufficient skills, it’s easy to get yourself killed.
But under certain conditions, these magic spells can often work wonders.
After walking around the magic area, Qi Ge spent a lot of money and bought all the magic he needed, and then came to the war machinery area with satisfaction.
Here, all kinds of strange war machines really opened Qi Ge's eyes.
【Zombie Workshop
War Machines
Effect: Summon a team of zombies every 3 rounds. The number of zombies is equal to the number of corpses on the field, with a minimum of 10.
【Corrugated Coagulator
War Machines

【Zombie Ballista
War Machines
Effect: Each attack consumes 1 zombie. If the attack completely kills the enemy, its corpse is converted into a zombie.
Conversion amount = 20% of the opponent's total health value]
…
Qi Ge selected some war machines that he liked and purchased them from them. After returning to the God's Chosen City, he would mass-produce them and sell them to players.
For players at this stage, each of these war machines is a small artifact.
After visiting the war machinery area, Qi Ge finally came to the military branch area.
The Undead Army is Diya's most core combat tool, and various studies on it are endless.
The undead troops that are able to come to the Dia Undead Exhibition have all been carefully selected and emerged from countless competitors.
Big Belly Zombie
Level 2, Stage 1 Hidden

Before the Big Belly Zombie dies, friendly units will not be harmed and are immune to negative magic. 】
【Evil Claw Skeleton Soldier
Level 1, Stage 1 Hidden
Specialty: Undead
Each attack will deal 1 point of defense, which lasts for the entire battle. 】
【Ghost Party

There were so many strange and bizarre undead soldiers that Brother Qige was dazzled. He walked around for a whole circle before he finally found the target that interested him.

Bone Resurrection: Devour a pair of friendly skeletons and revive yourself according to the devoured points.
Devil's Son
Tier 1 Arms

Special skill: Restore 1% of the mana of the hero upon death. 】
…
What interests Qi Ge the most is the undead troops displayed by this hero, all of which have a certain relationship with the forces of hell.
He asked the necromancer who was showing these [Abyss Undead]:
"Hello, I am very interested in the types of arms you showed me. Can you mass produce them?"
"You're actually interested?! That's great!
I am currently transforming the [Evil God] troops of the Hell Forces.
The evil god's special skill can permanently transform the corpses of friendly enemies into [evil spirits].
This stunt is very interesting, and its effect is similar to our spiritualism.
As long as you invest 300,000 gold coins, I promise to reveal the secret of the [Evil God].
Maybe we can create an undead class that can permanently resurrect skeletons in battle."
