A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 492 Magic Construct

"How is the breathing technique working?"

In the laboratory, Jiang Shuzhou looked at Grace and asked.

"The patient is in good condition, and their vital signs are normal."

Jiang Shuzhou nodded, indicating his satisfaction.

Jiang Shuzhou has always had a lot of projects on hand, and among them, the one most suitable for the current chaotic world is undoubtedly the magic construct.

As Jiang Shuzhou's strength improved, the previous technical barriers disappeared, and now Jiang Shuzhou can modify his breathing techniques at will.

With a wave of his hand, a test subject was pulled into a dream, and then he began to automatically practice the breathing technique.

Soon, his strength rose from the intermediate level to the advanced level, and finally to the Saint Realm, before he exploded and died.

After all, his strength was bestowed upon him by Jiang Shuzhou, and he had no control over it himself, so naturally, he was completely unable to control his own power.

"Great, let's do one more test, and it will be ready for market soon."

If one can cultivate to the Saint Realm, then one can cultivate to the Legendary Realm.

The standard breathing method has been mastered.

Jiang Shuzhou nodded, quite satisfied.

His main reason for studying standard breathing techniques now is to make money.

He's desperately short of money right now.

Although the floating city mainly requires legendary materials, it doesn't mean that the entire floating city is made entirely of legendary materials. If that were the case, the amount of legendary materials required would be too enormous, and even Jiang Shuzhou couldn't afford it.

Therefore, naturally, Jiang Shuzhou would need to obtain many materials that consume magic stones.

As everyone knows, the Dragon Plague is imminent, and countless dragons will wreak havoc in various places, including the Prime Material Plane.

Although the legendary mages were prepared and had divided up various protected areas.

However, legendary mages only deal with legendary dragons; they generally ignore lower-level ones.

After all, if legends have to do everything themselves, what's the point of having these people?

So here's the question: with war looming, what's the most profitable thing?

That's obviously weaponry.

These warriors were usually poor and had very little money, so Jiang Shuzhou naturally wasn't very interested in developing magic energy constructs and always gave them a very low priority.

As a result, Jiang Shuzhou temporarily abandoned his research after developing a mid-level magical construct.

This is mainly because the warriors haven't cultivated to this level yet, so Jiang Shuzhou doesn't need to do it.

Things are completely different now.

Although the dragon calamity brought famine, it also brought wealth!

You can get a lot of things from slaying dragons; these are all resources.

Undoubtedly, in the Astral Plane, classes like warriors who don't require much brainpower will grow stronger faster, since dragon blood can not only enhance strength but also be used to make potions and extract bloodlines.

These are all things that can greatly enhance the strength of soldiers.

With more wealth, the warrior's demand for things that enhance his strength increases.

Since that's the case, Jiang Shuzhou is going to ruthlessly empty their wallets and make them work for him in a roundabout way.

"Grace, remember this, I want..."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Shuzhou listed a whole bunch of requirements.

For example, those with a nature-based magic can release spells and gain amplification by communicating with the will of nature.

For example, fire-type characters can increase their resistance to high temperatures, enabling them to release flames and summon fire elementals, etc.

Jiang Shuzhou also added a seemingly useless but powerful magical construct, which he added with a wicked sense of humor.

For example, there are constructs that randomly teleport while sleeping, and a whole bunch of constructs with various minor flaws.

It all depends on whether they have the motivation to delve into these things.

They ruthlessly exploited Grace to avenge her previous exploitation of Jiang Shuzhou.

Jiang Shuzhou enjoys creative work. He has already built a concrete framework and a general system, leaving the rest to Grace.

"Let's use these as examples."

Jiang Shuzhou said.

He then handed several sets of armor to Grace.

These constructs exude a sense of sophistication; some emit a dazzling white light, some reveal star projections, and some are pitch black, seemingly nothingness.

These are all samples made by Jiang Shuzhou, legendary level, capable of increasing a warrior's combat power by at least twice, and are not for sale to the public.

However, there is a lower-spec version, which is at the Saint-level, and its effect is to provide nearly twice the combat power of warriors of the same rank.

Of course, the price is also outrageous, after all, it's a good product, it wouldn't be good if it were cheap.

Besides, would they dare not buy it?

If these soldiers don't have the money to buy it, Jiang Shuzhou won't complain.

If you have the money but don't buy it, that's just not right.

My neighbor hoards grain, I hoard guns; my neighbor is my granary.

Similarly, if someone has the money but doesn't buy it, and can't beat other warriors who bought the magic construct, then they have to accept it. Who told you not to buy it?

Is that a magical construct? That's an increase in power! That's a guarantee of life!

Of course, even though the production of Saint-level magical constructs is low, they can still be mass-produced, but the legendary level can only be made by Jiang Shuzhou himself.

Therefore, Jiang Shuzhou does not intend to sell the legendary magical construct to the public.

The way to obtain it is to work for Jiang Shuzhou.

These were all made by Jiang Shuzhou after a lot of hard work and several days of overtime.

Grace, who was standing to the side, was already numb.

Although she is a veteran legend, she never expected that sometimes the differences between people could be so great.

When she was in her thirties, she was still studying magic. By the time it came to Jiang Shuzhou, she had already become a legend, influencing the situation in the astral realm.

The projects that are usually awe-inspiring suddenly come to life when they come to Jiang Shuzhou.

With her included, even the two legendary alchemists were too busy to keep up.

Most importantly, she simply couldn't keep up with Jiang Shuzhou's train of thought. It just goes to show that a genius is a genius; his thinking is so agile that he was able to devise a magical construct through human body transformation and even develop a matching breathing technique.

"Oh, and Grace, don't forget to write a paper and make the standard breathing method publicly available for free."

"Same as always, you write the paper, I approve it, and it'll be approved in a second."

After giving Grace his instructions, Jiang Shuzhou quickly left.

He just realized that he seemed to have forgotten that Renotia was still waiting for him in the cell.

Grace naturally forgot that mages all have one bad habit: once they get into research mode, they almost never care about time.

Jiang Shuzhou was no exception.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Renotia was curled up in bed.

Her eyes were glazed over, and she felt a mix of emotions.

She once harbored beautiful fantasies, believing that she would have a dreamlike encounter with her other half, then adventure and fight together, and after experiencing unforgettable and memorable events, the two would establish a relationship.

In the end, they happily stayed together and lived a wonderful and joyful life.

But what is the reality?

She was taken back.

This process can't be described as devoid of romance; it's more accurately described as extremely terrifying.

"Here you are, Xiao Lei! How are you feeling? How are you feeling?"

Jiang Shuzhou has arrived.

Renodia looked at Jiang Shuzhou silently, then sighed, and tugged at Jiang Shuzhou's sleeve.

"Match me."
