Chapter 113: The Stars of Kethulgard
Compensation?" The old man paused, and his white voice was extremely rare to pick out a high note. He turned around and stared at his eyes as if he had seen something extremely strange. Even his skeleton-like face was distorted. "A ant actually asked for compensation?! Oh, is my body so decayed that even his hearing began to have problems? Or, you were crazy and trying to provoke the patience and dignity of a magician, um?! I will let you know the consequences now!"
The right hand that had already been hanging down suddenly raised again, spreading its five fingers and carrying huge pressure, it was about to slap Li Yan hard!
Li Yan struggled to support his body, and raised his head and raised his head and the stubbornness in the black eyes was like a sword's sharp edge that penetrated his body. "Ants, there are reasons to be crazy! You can kill me, but you will never know why I am crazy!"
The turbid eyes and unyielding black eyes looked at each other tightly. After five seconds, the pressure emitted from the old man was slightly restrained. "You are very lucky. Even I am wondering why I still have the patience to stand here now. So, while my patience has not disappeared, ants, continue to tell you your reasons!"
"Haha." With an inexplicable smile, he supported himself hard to stand up. Li Yan looked directly at the old man. Every syllable seemed to turn into magma brewing in his chest, and burst out word by word, "The reason is, I, no, accept you!"
"Please don't get angry first, listen to me continue to say." Seeing the fierce color in the old man's eyes flashing again, Li Yan no longer challenged his bottom line, "You are indeed very powerful, and you have controlled the powerful magic power, and I am very weak. The survival of the weak is the law of nature, so I can tolerate your injustice to me
But I can't stand it. You will only use this savage and rude way to impose your will and your injustice. My request is actually very simple. In the future, if I can pass your test as compensation, I will gain the right to challenge you. In this challenge, you also need to control your spell at the level of the Gray Robe Mage! Of course, even if you stand still, my spell cannot cause any harm to you, so as long as my spell can hit you, I will win."
"Hehe, you made me look at it first." With a chuckle, the magic elements condensed around the old man quickly dispersed. His withered arms slowly lowered, and he turned his head to say with interest, "Although in my eyes, your calculations are all clever, but there are too many boring days, I will play with you."
He staggered around the door that was concealed as a wall by the illusion array, leaving behind hoarse words, "In eight days, I will come to you again. The test is that I must be able to portray any level one magic array within five attempts. Looking forward to your performance, hehe."
"Hu." Knowing that the old man was hidden in the wall, there was no sound coming, Li Yan suddenly sat down on the ground against the wall and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was sure that the old man would not kill him, it felt uncomfortable to be taken away by the god of death anytime and anywhere. After being hit, he felt sore now. Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain. Under this situation, he could almost say that he had won the best treatment.
Especially the last one, "fair battle" with a magician will not only improve his magic skills in the actual combat process, but also help him to see the magician's spell casting and fighting methods, and the gains of his own magic practice will be self-evident!
If there is no test or the future is impossible, what he will get is a real gift, a large number of precious books, detailed magic array learning materials, sufficient engraving materials, and the magician will be a regular coach. Even the master will be envious of this kind of treatment, and his eyes will turn red like a rabbit.
But after the test, it becomes a puffer fish hotpot that can kill people by accident. I am afraid that except those who don’t mind accepting experience indoctrination, the rest of the mages will refuse this transaction. After all, the cost is too high, and high returns require real ability to get it.
He gently rubbed his forehead with his right hand and felt the condition of his body. Li Yan sighed. A crystal bottle containing pink potion appeared out of thin air on his left hand. He unscrewed the cap and tilted his head and poured it down.
The weak healing potion, the work of the old mage Dean, was the night he set out to explore the dog-headed man's nest, and Dean asked him to bring it with him.
To be honest, as a potion that can cure injuries or even save lives, this bottle of weak healing potion is of great value. Dean only gave him two bottles at that time. It was a waste of time to use the current injury that only needs a day to recover from, but there was nothing we could do about it.
Within eight days, he had to learn to engrave a first-level magic circle and the success rate of engraving must reach 20%. The arduous task could not allow him to waste a little more time. You should know that with his talent, it took ten days to truly complete the reel of the fireball scroll, and the success rate of engraving was only a little over ten%. Although those ten days were not all done, it was also possible to see the difficulty of making magic circles, and the difficulty of engraving magic circles was even more than the difficulty of making magic circles!
The good news is: the magic array engraving is to arrange magic patterns in specific ways to stimulate magic effects————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
In other words, as long as Li Yan still has mental power and his own magic elements, he can engrave as many times as he wants. This can greatly speed up his learning process.
The treatment potion for weak little, although wearing the name of weak little, was quite effective in treating Li Yan's injuries at this time. Not long after drinking it, a warm current rose from the stomach and spread throughout the body along the blood vessels. It did not flow through the damaged area. The soreness immediately eased, and numbness followed. This feeling was like the hydrogen peroxide from a hot spring soaked into the muscles and bubbles continued to vent.
After a few hourglass, the soreness and numbness almost disappeared. Li Yan clapped his hands and stood up, whispered a spell of "cleaning technique" and sorted out his hair. The robe occupied the obsidian table, and he focused his mind to deeply imprint every item in front of him related to the magic array engraving. He dared not be careless at all. This stone table will be his future battlefield!
——————————————————————————————————————
Outside the alchemy room, the spiral staircase formed a funnel wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. There was no idea where the top came from, nor where the bottom was going. There was only a wave of faint coldness spreading from the bottom, as if leading to the underworld. There was no door around, and the rock walls of the forest revealed cold despair.
At the stairs below the alchemy room, a black robe suddenly walked out of the wall, and then walked down the stairs, stepping on the surface of the stairs with stiff steps, raising the echo of "pa" on the surface of the stairs.
It can be seen that the steps he took were not wide, just one step at a time, but strangely, as he took each step, his body suddenly appeared several meters away as if he was sliding. This feeling was like he was walking towards the elevator, but the elevator was moving as a whole and the stairs under his feet were obviously not moving!
Therefore, the old man seemed clumsy and slow, but in fact he was extremely fast. He had already crossed nearly a thousand steps in less than a minute and came to the bottom.
Logically speaking, at the bottom of the tower, Li Yan should be the room where he was unconscious more than ten days ago. However, the space at the bottom is completely different from it. It is only a dozen square meters in size and has no doors. It is equivalent to a small closed room, and the room is empty, like an abandoned underground mine, just to be flat and much cleaner.
The old man stood in the middle of the room, and his hunched body pierced through the darkness with a circle of white light.
Far dozens of kilometers away, a group of creatures on the island surrounded by rivers are located on the upper end of the food chain of the dark world. The third-level monster scorpion lions are stationed here. They have huge bat wings and strong bodies. The poisonous tail needles often appear in groups. If strange creatures accidentally set foot in their territory, they will immediately suffer a fatal blow. So if you don't want to, even the elite team of adventurers will not be willing to provoke them.
But no one knew that there was a room in the depths of the ground, almost perpendicular to the scorpion lion's nest.
The room is about 200 square meters, and the inner wall is neatly surrounded by a cylinder, and countless mysterious magic circles, including runes, walls and roofs. There is a coverless sarcophagus hanging in the middle of the room, and the surface of the sarcophagus is also carved with runes. Four iron chains thicker than adults' upper arms are hung at one end and the bottom of the sarcophagus and inlaid at the angle between the wall and the roof, and a "ten" character is drawn in the room.
A strong dead energy spread out from the magic circle carved inside the room, and then surrounded the sarcophagus. The flying had already formed a substance, visible to the naked eye!
A dark and hunched figure suddenly appeared from the side of the room, and the old man who had just stepped into the teleportation array.
Walking slowly to the sarcophagus, the old man stretched out his right hand and took out a book from the sarcophagus. The book was a bit old, three centimeters wide and four centimeters long, and the brown animal leather hard bookcase tightly clamped the thick pages.
The withered palm brushed across the bookcase and turned out a blank page. The old man grinned and murmured to himself: "How should I describe a very interesting little wizard? Well, proud, confident, stubborn, and cunning, and I will hold on! Interestingly, for a moment, I was left with emptiness, and my anxious emotions were actually touched! This is a good thing, so I agreed to his challenge, hehe, he was probably very proud.
But I can't see through his fate. What does this mean?
Well, let’s stop here today. I hope these interesting things can help me retain the memories and emotions I should have in the future, even if only a part of them is still good.
On the 87th day of the summer of the 4th Calendar of Pergasus, Cthulgarde Stars."
As he finished speaking, the blank page suddenly lit up, and under the light, several lines of black words were neatly displayed.
Chapter completed!
