Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 149 Refugee Education Program
When Nemesis entered the valley, he was somewhat disappointed to find that the environment here had been completely ruined by the shaman.

In the basin with a radius of hundreds of miles, undead energy can be seen everywhere, and pale green energy ghost fires are floating everywhere in the air.

The reason for this phenomenon is that the shaman created a large number of low-level undead creatures.

Most of these undead creatures are similar to zombies, but their bodies are stronger. In the shaman's memory, they are called [Voodoo Zombies].

Nemesis even learned the spell on how to create this kind of zombie. After the caster mixes a virus into water and feeds it to the victim, the victim's body will show symptoms of various diseases such as low blood pressure, respiratory disorders and pulmonary edema, and then transform into this powerful zombie within seven days.

It is said that deep in the mysterious Maztec continent, there is a mysterious cult called "Voodoo" that is converting intelligent creatures into voodoo zombies.

After the otter transformed by the shaman was swallowed by the rain dragon, these voodoo zombies immediately became ownerless. With a wave of his hand, Nemesis controlled thousands of zombies in the basin, making them walk out of the valley and guard the canyon entrance into the valley.

"The effect of the Undying Crown is really useful." Nemesis nodded with satisfaction.

Having entered the 12th-level [Spell Keeper] profession, he fully awakened all the paragon powers of the eight factions' spells. However, as a price, the priest's paragon power had been removed.

[Undead Crown] is one of the most important puzzle pieces for high-level Necromancers to build an undead army. It has an extremely practical effect. Any ownerless skeletons and zombies facing a Necromancer who has awakened the [Undead Crown] will be controlled at will like sheep, with no limit on their number!

Seeing that the giant dragon controlled so many terrifying undead creatures with just a wave of its hand, the refugees became even more awed by it, because in the perception of the Niksalans, voodoo zombies are extremely terrifying creatures, and are the most common protagonists in the horror stories told by their parents during their childhood.

After clearing the valley of undead energy, Nemesis cleared his throat and gave a speech in front of many outstanding future employees.

"People of Niksaran, tell me, what is your value?"

Faced with the dragon's questioning, the Nicosalan refugees looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Value? What value can these refugees, who are despised wherever they go, have?
However, Valosan said with some insight: "Dear His Majesty the Dragon, I believe that our value is to create a better living environment for you and provide you with better services!"

As a former noble, Valosan understood very well what was most important to those extravagant and licentious nobles.

What? You said the one in front of you is not a noble but a giant dragon?
Stop joking, dragons only know how to enjoy life better than nobles!
Nemesis smiled with great satisfaction at Varosan's ability to understand the current situation.

Very good! He was just worried that after arriving in the New World, he would not have those flattering followers he had before, and now here comes a new one!

"Well said!" The dragon clapped its two huge claws. The refugees didn't understand why, but they followed suit and clapped their hands.

"But! This is not the most important thing at this stage." Nemesis raised a finger and shook it left and right.

"You will now be assigned a mission, and this is the only mission."

A gorgeous and ancient book appeared in the dragon's hand, with the words "Introduction to Magic Patterns" faintly engraved on it.

"I will teach you the basics of magic, and then you will need to learn all the contents of this book!"

"Forehead"

Cold sweat broke out on Varosan's forehead, and he cursed in his heart, is this dragon crazy? Is it going to teach these refugees who know nothing how to be a wizard?
He didn't know that Nemesis's purpose was only to make them construction workers who could carve magic patterns. After the construction of the Mage Tower was completed, perhaps the dragon in a good mood would select a few good seedlings and grant them precious magic knowledge.

Compared to Varosan's suspicion, the other refugees - even Maitis - were very happy. Being able to learn the mysterious knowledge that only shamans could master was simply a pie in the sky for them.

The dragon who saved them not only did not enslave them and force them to perform blood sacrifices, but he even gave them the opportunity to master precious knowledge. This was even more merciful than their gods!

In the following days, Nemesis began to show rare patience, and every day during the day he taught everyone the basics of magic on a temporary wooden platform set up in the middle of the valley.

How to connect to the magic network, how to sense magic power, and even how to perform magic tricks.

This knowledge may sound difficult, but it is actually very simple. For most creatures living in Toril, accessing the magic network is a very easy thing, and most humans can do tricks like releasing a flame at their fingertips.

The difficulty of becoming a mage lies mainly in learning to construct spell models and creating new spell models. For a mature mage, even a first-ring mage, this is not too difficult.

But it would be too difficult for the dragon to teach these refugees who know nothing about spell models, and Nemesis does not have the patience.

He only needs to teach these refugees to sense magic power, and then he can start learning how to carve magic patterns.

The prerequisite for carving magic patterns is that the sculptor must be able to sense the direction of the magic power. When he feels that the patterns he has carved do not match the direction of the magic power, he must make timely adjustments and re-carve.

Otherwise, if the magic patterns were simply drawn according to the picture, it would very likely cause the magic power in the patterns to become twisted like a dough stick when they were finally pieced together, and be completely scrapped.

This also completely dispelled the idea of ​​Nemesis using those Lianjia's undead creatures and summoned projections to work, those idiots don't understand this.
"Guide to building a mage tower? Master, do you mean to build a mage tower here?"

After Nemesis finished teaching, he left Varosan alone and showed him the book "Guide to Building a Mage Tower".

"That's right. After they learn the book of magic patterns, you will lead them to build the magician tower."

"Varosan, I have high hopes for you." The dragon spoke in a meaningful tone and began to make big promises.

"You and I come from the same continent, and you are more knowledgeable than these natives. Work hard, and then maybe I will consider taking you back to Sword Coast."

Upon hearing this, Varosan's eyes lit up and he was quite excited. He immediately expressed his loyalty to the dragon.

"Don't worry! With me here, I can definitely let those Niksalans build the most perfect wizard tower for you! You may not know that before I came, my family's main business was the construction industry in Waterdeep City. I am also very proficient in architectural design!"

Nemesis nodded perfunctorily and rolled his eyes. The drawings were clearly recorded in the book, so who needs you to go through the trouble?

However, he was very satisfied with Varosan's enthusiasm. With such a subordinate, there was no need to worry about not being able to build an ideal mage tower!

But before that
He looked toward a deep cave deep in the valley, rubbed his palms together, and there was a greedy look in his eyes.

He had to collect materials to build the wizard tower first.
