Marco looked at the thing in his hand and asked with a face full of doubt, but unfortunately, no one could answer him.
Because Maester Aemon had suddenly died after giving them the three gifts, without telling Marco what the gifts were.
Marko held what looked like a seed, Aegon held a book signed by Rhaegar Targaryen, and Brynden held a scroll that looked like a raven message.
Apart from the thing in Marco's hand, the other two gifts seemed to have special meanings for Brinden and the others, so Marco did not delve into them too much.
Marco was no Barristan Selmy, a bit of a gossip who always liked to delve into other people's private lives and rumors.
The seed in Marco's hand was emerald green, and there seemed to be several small cracks on it. A wisp of energy was slowly flowing out of these cracks.
So Marco activated the skill "Magic Control" in the hope of finding out what kind of secret was hidden in this seed-like thing. However, as soon as Marco established contact with the seed, the seed began to absorb his magic power crazily. Before Marco could react, his double magic power was absorbed.
After the magic disappeared, a sense of powerlessness instantly appeared on Marco's body. After staggering two steps, he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Nymph was close and discovered his special situation in time. She hugged him, which prevented Marco from falling.
After Moonshadow, who was standing to the side, noticed this, she quickly took out a bottle of "Vitality Magic Spring" from her cloak pocket. This was a special potion bottle that Marco had created after a long period of research. This potion bottle could keep the Vitality Magic Spring active for three months.
When he was on Skagos, Marco spent a lot of time and energy to barely make two of them. They were all made by Marco using the secret treasure of the deep divers. Although there were only two bottles, they were like artifacts to Marco!
After Yueying and the others fed the potion into Marco's mouth, Marco's complexion gradually recovered, but this situation only lasted for a few seconds, and the magic power in Marco's body began to flow away rapidly again.
The powerful Maeve and Dani discovered Marco's situation, and in their excitement, they almost pulled the seed from Marco's hand. Marco dragged his tired body to stop them, and explained weakly:
"This thing is of great use to me, don't get excited, Moon Shadow! Give me the remaining bottle of Vitality Magic Spring, quickly..."
The women all looked at Marco with worried expressions. They were also a little unsure, but out of trust for Marco, Moonshadow still sent the Vitality Magic Spring over. The four sisters worked together to feed the potion to Marco. Immediately afterward, Marco's magic value began to double again, and then disappeared rapidly, finally stopping when only 50 points were left.
This also made Marco relax, and he completely suppressed his beating heart. He was very afraid that he would suddenly die this time, but fortunately the magic power recovered in time.
As time went on, the influence of magic on Marco became heavier and heavier, or the magic of the system was gradually affecting the world.
However, these things are a good thing for Marco, because everything he has depends on magic and the system. These two things are one. As the influence of magic on this world becomes stronger and stronger, Marco will also become stronger and stronger.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the seed of the broken forest city. You can use it to build a system main city of the forest forces in a suitable place!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a new system main city, rewarding you with 50,000 points of gold resources and 20 points of full set of resources."
When Marco woke up, it was already noon the next day. Magic was flowing rapidly thru his body, making his body unable to withstand the powerful and violent force, and almost burst him.
After Maester Aemon was cremated in the Targaryen fashion, Marco and his party stayed at Castle Black for more than a week. During this time, "Old Bear" Jeor Mormont held a grand welcome banquet for Marco, and in the following period, Marco and Old Bear carefully discussed the future of the Night's Watch.
Marko made it clear to "Old Bear" that no matter how he ruled the North, he would not disarm the Night's Watch, and Marko also told "Old Bear" that the White Walkers were accumulating strength and were likely to come to deal with the Night's Watch in the future.
So, taking advantage of this opportunity, Marco made an agreement with "Old Bear" that as long as the Night's Watch released those special swift eagles, Marco would send troops from the Crown Town and Mole Town to support them.
In return, the Night's Watch must gather intelligence for Marco from beyond the Wall, and must not attack wildlings bearing the banner and sigil of the Holy Sun without good cause.
Because Marco had clearly told "Old Bear" that he had already subdued a large number of barbarians outside the Great Wall, and these barbarians had basically become "law-abiding" good people under his "education" because they had abandoned the tradition of "plundering".
A month later, Marco and his party met the support troops from Skagos Island on the shore of Long Lake. This troop was led by the Children of the Forest and the Wind Speakers, and there were about 2,000 wildling warriors. In the future, they will become the basic troops and residents of the main city of the forest system.
The reason Marco chose Long Lake as his placement location was because Long Lake had unique geographical conditions. Long Lake was located on the side of the King's Road and was the northernmost large lake in the North. The water source was also very clear.
"Ding! A suitable clean water source has been found. Would you like to place the main city of the forest power system, Wenlan?"
Mark looked at the display on the interface, and his heart was full of excitement. This city was actually the city of flower fairies in the game system. In the game, many cities have names, and they also have their own characteristics.
The most important feature of this elven city named "Windlan" is that the output of level 1 troops is +2, but I don't know what it will become here!
So Marco clicked the "Yes" option with an excited mood, and then a powerful force poured out of Marco's body, and the seeds rushed out of Marco's pocket at a high speed.
It flew directly to the center of Long Lake, and then the big tree grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. Roots, trunks, branches, leaves, and then some land began to slowly form under the roots. Rocks, fountains, buildings, small trees, and vines. After these elements were combined, they became a mysterious city under the tree.
This beautiful city of trees is like a world tree. Marco is also sighing at its charm. It is like a legendary elven holy city, full of beauty and art!
It feels exactly the same as the game system, and it looks full of natural and harmonious beauty!
"Ding! Due to the damage of the city seed, some building functions of the system main city are missing. The system will supplement the corresponding biological arms system. The specific biological arms style is subject to the actual building."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for establishing a new system town. The host is rewarded with a fairy tree (including the fairy tree). The characteristics of the elf city of Wenlan have been activated. Due to the difference between the real world and the game, the system will transform this characteristic into 'The Birth of the Children of the Forest', and a new child of the forest will be born every month."
A wide road stretched from the edge of the big tree to Marco and his men, and then Marco led his men into it.
The sunlight fell on the ground thru the shade of the trees, just like the starlight in the nite sky. The buildings and trees under the big trees were surrounded by a layer of light fog. The beautiful and hazy environment made many savage warriors think they had come to a fairyland.
The buildings and decorations inside were like carefully carved works of art, and for a time the whole team was filled with sighs and exclamations of surprise.
Then Marco clicked on the detailed information of the city in the system interface, but just a casual glance, Marco found that many powerful functional buildings and troop buildings were missing in the city.
For example, the town hall can only be upgraded to the city hall, and the basic tavern, resource warehouse, blacksmith shop have disappeared, even the magic guild has disappeared, not to mention the dragon altar and the hunter's hut.
And the War Dancer Arena was replaced by the Wind Speaker Arena, and the Wind Speaker Arena was not upgraded, so Marco was not sure whether these Wind Speakers could evolve into the other two professions.
However, the three powerful units of Druid, Unicorn and Treant were retained, and the building list was not damaged, which made Marco's hanging heart fall a little.
However, Marco found that the "Mysterious Pond" building in the building list of the forest forces was retained. There was also a "Mysterious Pond" in Marco's Griffin Castle, but it was a magical building that was magically modified by the system, and it also gave Marco the "Magic Injection" skill.
The "Mysterious Pond" here is even more magical. The construction requirements are actually 10,000 gold and 5 units of the entire set of rare resources. So Marco waved his hand and directly built this building first.
After a burst of golden light, a tree fountain building with three springs appeared in front of Marco, and the crystal clear fountain water flowed down.
Marco gently stroked the tree trunk and the place where the fountain water flowed. After careful inspection, Marco found that there was no moss and mud on the tree trunks that had been flowed thru by the fountain water as he had imagined. After personally trying it, Marco found that the fountain water was very delicious.
It was only after Marco had finished drinking the spring water that he suddenly found a prompt interface popping up on the system.
"Ding! It has been detected that the host has drunk the mysterious spring water and has obtained a mysterious lottery opportunity. Do you want to use it? (Note: once a month, the effect is unknown.)"
So, out of curiosity, Marco clicked "Yes", and then the mysterious spring produced a series of ripples, followed by a scroll that floated down the fountain's water flow.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the unit building 'Goblin Hut'. You can choose a suitable location to place the building."
Goblin Hut
Description: This building can be used to recruit goblins
Goblin
Introduction: This is the most common and fastest-breeding intelligent race in the Western fantasy world. They are born with powerful genes and can absorb the excellent characteristics of other species. It can be said that the many goblin subspecies can completely form a circular ecosystem.
Type: A subspecies of goblin that inherited the powerful vitality and reproductive power of the demon race.
Traits: "All-Purpose Demon Blood", goblins with rich demon magic are a very practical "item", which can be used as a throwing weapon, as a material for blood sacrifice, and as "military food" when necessary; "Blood of Rage", can be blessed by blood magic in battle; "Cowardice", they are still small, and will not take the initiative to fight for you; "Betrayal", the genes of betrayal and cruelty deeply affect them, only blood and high-pressure rule can make them "loyal" to you.
Marco looked at the scroll in his hand, a satisfied smile on his face. The appearance of the goblins made up for Marco's shortcomings in some areas, such as mining, handling and farming, which were extremely labor-intensive. Marco had been looking for solutions for many years, although he had improved some tools and equipment, the effect was not very obvious.
Although he lost the top-level and core troops, this building, which was like a compensation from the system, made Marco very happy, and he felt like he had won the lottery!
Immediately after that, Marco sent his army into "Windland", which would become Marco's new logistics base, or a new home for the children of the forest under his command.
The leader of the Children of the Forest this time was Gold Coin, because she liked to collect human gold coins, so she was given such a human name by her people.
These sons of the forest will continue to study the transformation of crops and trees here, and strive to develop a high-yield and cold-resistant crop for Marco as soon as possible.
After explaining everything here, Marco and his party began to head toward Winterfell. Marco still had a mysterious ultimate magic that he had not used, which was "Asha's Blessing".
This magic can transform the castle into the system's main city. Although I don't know what Winterfell will be transformed into by the system in the end, and what kind of special arms will be produced, Marco will try it out with courage just for its "four crops a year" castle production effect.
