Chapter 312 Spell Field
As refugees from the United Nations poured into the War Council, the War Council also broke up the refugees and distributed them to various parts of the Council, with families as the largest unit.
During the following period of time, the War Council calmed down and quietly developed and prepared according to Roland's plan.
Roland had already proved the feasibility of his plan by the war to retake the northern wall.
Although the members of the War Committee knew that they could not win and only wanted to fight against the fanatical revenge seekers who had exploded with the Green Tide, after seeing hope, even the most radical revenge seekers were able to calm down and work hard for Roland's plan.
After all, although they are radical, they are not fools. Even if they push the War Committee to fight the Green Tide, they will definitely not be able to kill Kan'ozu and the Green Tide.
However, if Roland followed his plan, endured for two years, and then prepared to expose the Green Tide in a few years, he might be able to really kill Kan'ozu.
The former is almost 100% likely to be ineffective, while the latter, although less likely, is not impossible.
Therefore, after completing the battle to recapture the northern wall, the members of the War Committee all fell silent and no longer demanded to continue the war against the Green Tide.
Otherwise, if they all demanded to continue fighting, even with the support of the majority of the executive committee members, it would be difficult for Roland to suppress the demands of these radicals.
Even if suppressed, the new war council would once again be divided into factions.
This group of radical committee members will most likely follow Roland's example and look for a new leader to launch a new Black Rock coup, or should I say, an Apocalypse coup.
The nascent war council could not afford a new civil war.
In the end, Roland managed to stabilize all the committee members by relying on his performance on the battlefield and the appeasement of the executive committee members.
After all, so many years have passed. Think about it, the rebels used to kill one greenskin warlord a year on average. The committee completed the rebels' results of more than ten years in just three months. Now if we give Roland a little trust and a chance, it won't be a big problem if he endures for a few years.
It was precisely because all the committee members were appeased by Roland that the dark clouds over the bloody war machine of the War Committee were able to dissipate, and that they were able to stop advancing in an orderly manner under the orders of the military.
However, stopping the advance does not mean that the army stops operating.
Under the order of the Executive Committee, the War Council's troops began a major transfer and comprehensive adjustment.
In the old territory, except for the fortress cities, all other cities, towns and villages no longer retained any legionnaires, and all were transferred to the newly conquered lands.
According to the orders of the military, an area was fenced off in the newly conquered land and sealed greenskins were sacrificed to stimulate their rapid reproduction.
While controlling the vitality capacity, use these new greenskins to continuously train the army.
At the same time, under the pretext of collecting military supplies, a large amount of materials from the War Committee were mobilized to transfer to the new territory, and various strange machines were also transferred as well.
Apart from a small amount of supplies that were actually intended for use by the army, more supplies and equipment were invested in the reconstruction of the northern wall and the layout of spell formations.
March 3th, the northern wall.
Under the gaze of countless spellcasters, Roland took the brush from the bucket and painted and fixed the five runes that had been readjusted on the main frame.
"The thirteenth test begins."
After saying this, Roland injected magic power and activated the main frame that had already been built.
As countless spellcasters watched with bated breath, Roland's magic power was injected from the runes and began to spread around along the structure of the main frame.
Since the logistics have been successfully set up, various communication devices have been distributed to each spellcaster group.
Therefore, as the magic power spread rapidly, spellcasters distributed throughout the northern wall, holding communication devices and ready to report information at any time, also sent out good news after seeing the magic power flow smoothly.
"The first section in the north is open to traffic as normal."
"The southern section is open to traffic as normal."
"North Section 2, normal traffic."
"South Section 2, normal traffic."
"North Section 3, normal traffic."
"South Section 3, normal traffic."
"."
Amid the excited voices of countless spellcasters, sections of the main frame structure were tested until the very end.
"North Section 20, normal traffic."
"South Section 20, normal traffic."
Hearing the cheers in the background of the last two replies, Roland also smiled. He raised his head, looked at the spellcasters around him who could not hide their excitement, raised his right hand, and smiled.
"Everyone, after four months of hard work, we succeeded!"
As soon as Roland finished speaking, the spellcasters around him finally stopped hiding their excitement and cheered one by one.
They successfully completed the most difficult first step, and the remaining second and third phases of the project were no problem at all.
With the unremitting efforts of the spellcasters, the redundant runes on the northern wall were completely cleared, and the main frame designed by Roland also covered the original core runes, and the construction was successfully completed.
After thirteen rounds of debugging and correcting various problems in the debugging process, the main framework finally passed the debugging.
After another test to confirm that there were no problems with the main frame, the first phase of the northern wall project was officially completed.
Although time is a bit tight, we can still take a day off to celebrate.
Therefore, after the first phase of the project was officially completed, Roland also specially allocated a batch of materials for celebration to reward the spellcasters who had worked hard for four months.
After all, during these four months, they have carried the hopes of the entire War Council, and the entire War Council has been serving them, giving them whatever they want. Under such circumstances, the pressure on the spellcasters can be said to be quite enormous.
According to statistics, within four months, the recorded forced calm spell was cast more than 300 times a day on average, and more than 1,000 recorded collapse incidents were found.
Due to excessive pressure, there have been more than 200 cases of people collapsing and committing suicide.
This is based on the premise that Roland casts spells every day to appease all spellcasters. Otherwise, these numbers would be even more exaggerated.
The spellcasters of the northern wall were under unparalleled pressure, especially in the thirteen experiments. In each area where problems occurred, more than two-thirds of the people in charge collapsed and committed suicide, and the remaining less than one-third of the people in charge, after Roland's comfort, still chose to commit suicide to atone for their sins.
Even though Roland kept emphasizing that it was not their responsibility, it was because there were too many redundant runes on the northern wall and it was the fault of their predecessors.
It is normal for problems to occur, and it would be strange if no problems occurred.
But even so, they still choose to commit suicide to calm themselves down.
After all, these spellcasters were just ordinary people a few years ago, so it is normal that they cannot withstand such pressure.
Fortunately, there is the Fountain of Life that can revive them, otherwise, who knows how many spellcasters would have to die before this first phase of the project can be completed.
However, the ending is still good. At least the first phase of the project was completed smoothly. Without the influence of redundant runes, the remaining second and third phases will not be so stressful.
While the spellcasters were celebrating the successful completion of the first phase of the project, Roland gave a speech at the celebration, encouraging them and letting them celebrate to their heart's content. Then Roland quietly left the northern wall.
The first phase of the northern wall project was completed, and Roland had to deal with another, arguably more important project, which was the construction of the magic field.
Listening to the cheers and celebrations from the northern wall behind him, Roland looked at Hela beside him and spoke softly.
“Hela, aren’t you going to the celebration?”
Hela grabbed Roland's sleeve, stared at him, and whispered.
"Didn't Roland participate?"
Roland smiled helplessly and said.
"There are some things at the magic array that I need to arrange in person. You don't have to be so anxious. You can go there after the celebration."
Hela did not reply, but held Roland's sleeve tighter.
Gray Crow stood on Hela's shoulder and rolled his eyes helplessly.
“Well, if Hela wants to follow, let’s go together.”
Roland smiled, took Hela's hand that was holding his sleeve, and cast a space teleportation spell. The two people and the bird disappeared from the spot.
The function of the northern wall is to resist the attack of the Green Tide and buy time for the Green Tide to separate from Kan'aozu.
The magic formation was a trap prepared for Kan'aozu, and it was also the place where Roland and Kan'aozu would fight for their lives in the future. As a legend who had ascended to the top by himself, Kan'aozu was not a pseudo-legend or a parallel legend like Eleanor who had ascended to the top through sacrifice.
Although there are some flaws in Kan'aozu's legendary promotion, he is still a genuine legend.
When Roland was a professional player in his previous life, he had fought against countless professional players in various competition venues and under various competition mechanisms, each of them controlling a legendary account. Roland knew very well the true power of the legend.
Although it is impossible for Kan'ozu to be proficient in a large amount of extraordinary knowledge like those professional players, and to explode directly at the beginning of the fight and burn his life to break out, he also does not have rich experience in fighting with legends.
Therefore, Roland has certain advantages over Kan'aozu in terms of knowledge and experience, but this advantage cannot make up for the gap between Roland as a five-ring spellcaster and Kan'aozu as a legend.
Therefore, Roland must play to his strengths in all aspects to make up for the gap between him and Kan'ozu.
For a spellcaster, setting up a spell formation in advance is undoubtedly the best choice.
In order to enhance the power of the magic formation, Roland put almost all his knowledge and skills into it. Among them, the strange machine technology was a very important part of the magic formation layout.
On a high ground in the newly recovered land, a large number of artificers were installing various kinds of artifice devices.
Thanks to the efforts of the artificer, almost every inch of the entire high ground in front of them was covered with metal artifices.
Around the plateau, the artificers dug large and deep pits in the ground.
In these deep pits, a large number of strange machine parts were assembled into tall metal pillars. On these assembled metal pillars, a large number of strange machine masters were moving around like ants.
Just as the artificers were working hard, Roland and Hela appeared on the metal plateau.
Having received the news in advance, Siqi, who had been waiting on Metal Highlands, came over immediately.
"Chairman, you are here."
"Well, I'm here. How's the progress now? Where's the problem? Take me there."
Roland nodded and asked directly to the point.
After hearing Roland's words, Siqi led the way for Roland.
"You come with me."
"At present, all the strange equipment for the position has been manufactured and most of them have been delivered. One tenth of the strange equipment parts are still on the way, but they will all arrive within a month."
"Four-fifths of the strange equipment in the position have been installed, and three-fifths have been debugged. Most of the strange equipment has no problem with installation and debugging, but a small number of strange equipment have matching problems. In addition, due to the lack of coordination of rune arrays, some strange equipment cannot be debugged at present."
While listening to Siqi's explanation, Roland followed him towards the deep pits around the high ground.
But Hela did not follow Roland. She stayed on the high ground and began to prepare for the layout of the position.
Following the stairs of the metal pillars in the deep pit, Roland and Siqi easily entered the lowest section of the metal pillars.
Siqi opened the lower door of the metal pillar, and then the two of them walked into the metal pillar.
After entering the metal pillar, Roland followed Siqi to the core area.
Looking at the Heart of Wind placed in the core area, Roland frowned subconsciously and said.
"It's the wrong one. This is the Fire Stone."
Hearing Roland's words, Si Qi was stunned for a moment.
Ignoring Siqi's performance, Roland operated the console to remove the Heart of Wind from the core area, took out a low-level Fire Stone from the space bracelet, and reinstalled it.
After changing to the Fire Stone, there is no more error message on the console in front of me.
Roland shook his head helplessly and said.
"Have the machinists check to see if there are any errors in the installation and adjust them immediately."
"Yes, I'll have someone check it out right away."
Si Qi nodded quickly and responded.
"Ah."
Roland walked out of the core area along the same path he came from, and continued to ask as he spoke.
"Do you have any other questions?"
"No, it's probably all due to carelessness and installation errors."
Siqi said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Well, don't blame me too much. It's good enough if the problem can be found and corrected before it is put into use."
"clear."
"Remember to replace the low-level Fire Stone inside, and continue to install and debug the rest. Come to me if you have any questions."
After walking out of the metal pillar, Roland left here directly through space teleportation after saying this.
After Roland left, Siqi's face instantly darkened.
Which little genius mechanic was responsible for installing this? Also, who was the mechanic who checked the installation? How could such an obvious mistake be allowed to pass?
Si Qi turned on the communication device and called all the technicians in charge of installation and inspection, preparing to scold them severely for making such a low-level mistake.
After some mechanics received Siqi's message, they had no idea that they were going to be severely scolded, and they went to the meeting room with a confused look on their faces.
Just as they were heading to the meeting room, Roland appeared beside Hela.
On the high ground, Hela had already screened out the extraordinary materials transported to the high ground, carried out simple processing, and made preparations for the construction and laying of the formation.
"So soon? Has the problem over there been solved?"
Hela used her magic to control dozens of extraordinary materials to float around her. She looked at Roland who emerged beside her and spoke.
"Yeah, no big deal."
Roland nodded, calmly spread out his magic power, and began to process and lay the extraordinary materials with Hela.
Under the operation of Roland and Hela, the extraordinary materials began to dissolve after being injected with a large amount of magic power. Then, under Roland's micro-manipulation, various liquid extraordinary materials began to fuse with each other.
After merging with each other and under the catalysis of magic, their properties changed.
After the liquid extraordinary materials completed their reaction and merged into one, Roland controlled the liquid to fall onto the strange device on the high ground.
Under Roland's control, these extraordinary materials formed magical stripes that blended into the ground.
Thanks to Roland and Hela's efforts, the mountains of extraordinary materials disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and on the high ground, with the high ground as the center, stripes of magic were rapidly expanding outward.
In addition to the magic stripes, a large number of densely packed runes of various kinds also continued to pour into the high ground that Roland had driven into.
In addition, the various spell models that Roland carefully prepared were also successfully integrated into the spell formation one by one.
After the magic formation was quickly laid out, the machine masters also adjusted the positions and connection structures of the machines according to the distribution of magic stripes.
Under Roland's micro-manipulation, the originally independent magic stripes, various runes, spell models, and strange mechanical devices began to connect with each other, forming the current diversified spell formation.
In this area blocked by the Primarch and his legions, countless resources from the War Council were continuously invested.
As the magic formations are built, the areas covered by the magic formations become more and more complex and more and more dangerous.
After helping Roland build the magic formation for less than a month, Hela was sent by Roland to the northern wall to help with the second phase of the project.
Because the spell formation has become extremely dangerous after only being built for a month. Even a fourth-ring spellcaster like Hela can die in the spell formation if he is not careful.
However, the magic array used a large number of strange machines. Therefore, after Hela was driven out by Roland, nearly a hundred strange machine masters continued to work at the magic array and debug the strange machines.
Although the mortality rate is close to 50%, if two artificers enter, basically only one person can survive.
Fortunately, these machine operators are all low-level extraordinary people. Moreover, debugging the machines does not require much energy. If they die, they can be resurrected immediately and continue working, so the impact of the weak period is not great.
