Chapter 336: Final Preparations, [Military Building: Early Civilization War Fortress]
"Sir, this ritual blueprint has been fully repaired..." Jiu Feng said softly.
There was still one hour left until the end of the truce period.
Placed before Yu Yuan was precisely that stitched-together ritual blueprint. Only after piecing the blueprint together did Yu Yuan realize just how complex this ritual circle pattern was.
He had sent this blueprint over a few days ago, fully aware of his own limitations.
He was utterly clueless about rituals, had never studied this ritual blueprint, and handing it to Jiu Feng for research was the most appropriate course of action.
It was the same old adage.
Professional matters should be handled by professionals.
Over the past few days, during his research on the Swiftstrider Virus, Jiu Feng had found time to piece together and repair the ritual blueprint.
What Yu Yuan was looking at now was the fully repaired blueprint.
[Spiritual Dimension Ritual Circle Blueprint]Description: This ritual circle is regarded as taboo by many great existences. Its origins are unknown. Whenever it is destroyed, it always mysteriously reappears. It holds infinite possibilities...
Quality: Taboo
Usage Conditions: Silver-tier Spiritual Medium ×1, Bronze-tier Spiritual Medium ×5
Function: Activating this ritual circle will grant qualification to enter the Spiritual Dimension.
——————————
This was the introduction information for the ritual circle blueprint.
To be honest, when Yu Yuan saw this blueprint's information, his eyelids twitched.
[Taboo-grade] quality was an item level Yu Yuan had never encountered before.
And the introduction information for this blueprint was also surprisingly brief.
In Yu Yuan's opinion, it basically provided no useful information at all.
As for the [Spiritual Dimension]...
Yu Yuan guessed it might be that void space Jiu Feng had entered before.
Yu Yuan believed this blueprint was absolutely precious.
After all, whether it was the previous appearance of the Stealth Rat, or Jiu Feng obtaining the Bio-Modification Maniac talent and the psychic ability Special Personality, both were directly related to this ritual circle.
Even the two of them had only used half of the ritual circle blueprint and gained so many rewards, showing just how miraculous this ritual circle was.
Finally, Yu Yuan's gaze settled on the blueprint's description information.
"Regarded as taboo by many great existences..." Yu Yuan muttered this sentence under his breath, pondering.
Recalling the information about rituals that Jiu Feng had mentioned earlier, a thought flashed through his mind.
"The reason this ritual is considered taboo, could it be related to Jiu Feng's ability to perceive the wandering consciousness of great existences?"
Yu Yuan thought it was very possible. Jiu Feng had only used a modified version of the ritual circle and awakened psychic abilities, obtaining a good talent.
Clearly, the effects of this complete ritual circle must be even more miraculous.
The answer must lie within that so-called Spiritual Dimension.
"Not good enough! I still need to try it myself to confirm the effects of this blueprint..."
Furthermore, the usage conditions for this ritual circle far exceeded Yu Yuan's expectations.
Good grief.
Starting off requires a Silver-tier Spiritual Medium.
Regarding Spiritual Mediums, Yu Yuan guessed they should be spiritual items.
The spiritual organs and spiritual blood he obtained earlier should qualify.
Meaning, as long as he found a Silver-tier Spiritual Creature and killed it, the Silver-tier Spiritual Medium would be accounted for.
That's easy to say.
But a Silver-tier Spiritual Creature... that's tough!
Yu Yuan sighed.
Wasn't Zhi Zhi's predecessor, the Rat, powerful enough?
It could be said to be the most outrageous creature Yu Yuan had ever seen. He fought it three times, matching wits and courage three times.
In the end, he schemed with all his might, employing tactics like 'borrowing a knife to kill' and 'diverting disaster eastward', setting traps, using every trick in the book.
He consumed an entire Stag Shelter and three defensive traps, and paid the price of getting injured himself.
Only then did he manage to capture it.
Yet such a Rat was only Bronze-tier, far from reaching Silver-tier.
He couldn't even imagine how strong a Silver-tier creature would be.
However, Yu Yuan now very much hoped to encounter a Silver-tier Spiritual Creature.
His current strength was no longer comparable to when he subdued the Rat.
Whether it was the injection of the Spiritual Enhancement Potion, or Zhi Zhi, the Binding Bramble, and Thunder's Secret Contract, they had all increased Yu Yuan's strength by several times compared to before.
If he encountered the Rat now with his current strength, Yu Yuan was confident he could end the fight within a minute.
He could even handle it easily just with Zhi Zhi.
He now needed an evenly matched enemy to test his power.
"Silver-tier... I'm afraid it's hard to encounter at the Rock Rank. Perhaps only after advancing to the Bronze Rank will there be a chance!"
Actually, according to Yu Yuan's estimation, Zhi Zhi's strength should have already reached Silver-tier standards.
It's just a shame that Zhi Zhi is now an energy-based creature, with no blood or organs to speak of, which makes things very difficult.
He doesn't even have a chance to experiment.
Actually, putting it that way, the ritual Jiu Feng designed earlier was already quite impressive.
Although the ritual effect wasn't stable, it lowered the ritual requirements to almost nothing.
One has to admit, Jiu Feng's talent regarding spirituality is truly remarkable.
Yu Yuan suddenly thought of Mona's talent, Dark Apprentice, which seemed to have special bonuses and insights regarding mystical rituals.
She might be able to figure something out.
He immediately handed the blueprint to Mona, asking her to also study this ritual circle when she had time.
Mona gladly accepted.
But Yu Yuan also emphasized heavily that she must not try it herself under any circumstances; everything must wait until he returned!
Any ideas must be communicated with him before any attempts are made.
Mona naturally understood the dangers involved and indicated she understood.
Regarding Mona, Yu Yuan was still at ease. After experiencing her family tragedy, she had become quite cautious.
Now he only hoped that Jiu Feng and Mona, working together, could quickly make some headway with this ritual circle.
Time passed as Yu Yuan waited. The countdown to the end of Moss Cottage's truce period was now at 10 minutes.
Yu Yuan opened the Civilization Focus page on the Virtual Light Screen.
He began upgrading the civilization foci. First was the War focus. He looked at the second layer of civilization foci under Expansionism.
Yu Yuan had already lit up one of the civilization foci, Military Plunder. His remaining Civilization Points stood at 91.
He directly lit up the remaining three civilization foci:
——[War Mobilization Order]: When launching an invasion war or civilization war against other players, Survival Point consumption -20%; Morale +20%, Morale will not fall below 50%.
——[Militarized Rule]: Directly impose military control over conquered regions/worlds, using force to maintain order and suppress resistance. Can guarantee basic loyalty of personnel/factions in conquered areas within a short time, ensuring the most basic order and stability.
——[Military War Status]: When launching an invasion war/civilization war against other players, can skip the 1-hour war preparation period, directly entering the war invasion/civilization war state.
Civilization Points were immediately consumed by 30, dropping to 61 points.
The third layer of civilization foci then appeared. Yu Yuan's attention was instantly drawn to one of the icons.
This icon depicted a massive metal gate, with a row of small figures in front of it.
——[Military Structure: Primary Civilization War Fortress]: Gain the qualification to establish a Primary Civilization War Fortress. The Primary Civilization War Fortress is equipped with a Civilization Teleportation Gate, capable of anchoring three world coordinates and constructing stable spatial teleportation channels.
Unlock Cost: 100 Civilization Points.
