【Desolate woodlands northeast of the middle of the Plaguelands】

Ryan and his party eventually make their way to the vicinity of the desolate woodland and finally join up with Jack. Jack's side apparently had another big fight not long ago. The first is that the number of troops has plummeted a lot, and secondly, the traces of the aftermath of the war are still hanging on everyone's body.

"Captain Jack, I'm sorry, we're separated. Ryan genuinely felt apologetic.

"It doesn't matter, just come back. Jack's mood clearly hadn't adjusted from the fight. It's hard to hide the loneliness in the tone.

"How's the battle going?" Ryan asked.

"The vanguard led by Kong Que can be said to be almost completely annihilated. When we arrived, all we had left was the head of the void and two other thieves struggling to hold on, surrounded by the corpses of skeleton lichs and corpses. It's my fault, and if I hadn't asked for a front team, it probably wouldn't have happened. Jack blamed himself.

"It's not your fault, after all, you are responsible for the safety of the whole regiment, I think any regiment commander would make such an arrangement, if there is no advance team, we will have to dance the sword all the way to this place and continue to fight, and the casualties will only be worse. These words were not comfort, Ryan said.

"Well," Jack understood, of course, but he couldn't help but sigh. "After we joined the battle, more undead creatures sprung up around us, including a skeleton with blue-gray bones, which was so powerful that we came here to repair after a terrible battle.

"I didn't expect that a bronze skeleton had already appeared here. "A sorceress called Nanaroku.

"Who is this?. Jack asked.

"Let me introduce you. Feige preemptively said, "This beautiful young lady's name is Nanaro Campbell, and she is a gray-robed magician. The old man beside her was his teacher, the white-robed mage Naifa Li, and behind her was their entourage. By the way, Captain Jack, by the way, they want to join the gang!"

"Oh, it's naturally an honor for us to have two of them, one of whom is still a white-robed mage. I don't think you two should follow me into the camp tent and talk about it. Our team is an alliance, and I can't make decisions alone, so I have to ask the other two for their opinions. ”

Ryan didn't go to the conversation, but took Kara and Feige to find Mo Yan, and the luggage was still with him. When Ryan found Mo Yan, Mo Yan was slightly injured, but his luggage was unharmed. Ryan felt something, but he could only thank Mo Yan and set up a tent nearby. Kara sat down peacefully beside Ryan, pulling honey and bread from her luggage and eating them. Unlike humans, elves only need to eat one meal a day to maintain their daily energy expenditure.

Nanaroku's conversation with Jack can be imagined. The next day, the two magicians had successfully walked at the front of the mage team. It is true that the same gray-robed mage, the difference in strength may also be huge, after all, only proficient in fourth-level magic can be promoted to white-robed mage, that is to say, even gray-robed mages may be proficient in third-level magic, and Nanaroku is undoubtedly such a magician.

Along the way, Feiqi's eyes were watery, and a pair of greedy eyes never left Nanaluo's body.

"If you like people, just say it, don't be embarrassed, your saliva has flowed all the way, and I look disgusting. Kara looked disgusted.

"Oh, you know, I'm the kind of person who can be easily swooned by beauty? I'm looking at the staff in her hand. Feige wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong with that staff?" said Kara, looking at the magic wand that was made of dark silver and had an emerald green crystal studded at the top.

"The Scepter of Anubis!" said Feige greedily, "I didn't look closely yesterday, but I only found out in the morning." ”

"What is Anubis?"

"The so-called Anubis is a giant beetle fifth-level magical beast that grows at an altitude of more than 9,000 meters, Anubis is good at living alone, so there is often only one on a mountain, and the surviving Anubis is extremely powerful, and its own magic power is comparable to that of a human great magician, and the size of this magic crystal in front of him is at least dug out of the head of an adult Anubis. ”

Feige continued, "Anubis loves the cold, especially the ice magic element, and can be said to be the favorite of ice magicians. And that magic crystal is so big, I see that the color inside it is shining, and it must be sealed with a very powerful magic, tsk. The more Feige spoke, the more saliva flowed.

This scepter is worth a city!

Kara leaned over to Ryan with some disgust and said to Feige, "Alright, alright." Shut your mouth. You've said that this Anubis friendly ice magic element, as far as your phase-breaking nature is concerned, it's a waste to you. ”

"Hey," Feige laughed and said nothing.

The team keeps moving forward. Although there were constant harassment from low-level undead creatures along the way, fortunately there was no large-scale attack, and the day went exceptionally smoothly. The team has crossed the hinterland and entered the center circle of the Plaguelands. It's barren here, the four fields are empty, not to mention the trees, there are not even a single weeds, and the miasma is thin.

It was getting dark.

"Look, that distant shadow ?--dungeon!!" Suddenly, someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Then the whole team cheered.

Ryan followed the gaze of the crowd, and sure enough, a city loomed into the thin miasma.

"It's finally here. Yinfeng looked excited, and couldn't help but sigh.

"yes. Jack also said. "The real adventure is only beginning now. ”

The distance was getting closer and closer, and it was not until everyone walked in front of the two dancing green ghost fires that they could see the whole dungeon. The two ghost fires were separated by more than ten meters, and one was another every six meters as they stretched forward, stretching for miles, as if outlining a road to hell. At the end of the road, there is a gray-brown statue of a gray-brown king cobra with a body belly covered with black linear markings dozens of meters high, standing there, the king cobra seems to open a large mouth as black as a black hole, its jaw is buried in the ground, and the snake's tail extends out of the entire huge city up to 100 meters high, as if it is about to devour everything, waiting for adventurers to break in.

"Be careful, everyone. Jack said. After speaking, he was the first to step into this straight passage to the king cobra statue.

There were no traps along the way, and everyone was surrounded by the dark green ghost fire on both sides, and the wind-blown ghost fire that came from nowhere sounded, with an eerie and terrifying atmosphere.

The king cobra is in sight. The closer you go, the more you feel the insignificance of the outstanding adventurer, and if you look down from above, it looks like a small group of humble ants walking towards the mouth of a huge king snake shrouded in a whirlpool of dark clouds. It's about to fall into the great mouth.

"Buzz --," Suddenly, a soft, long trembling sound came from the front, ricocheting several people at the front of the line away. In front of the huge mouth of the king cobra, a huge magic array suddenly emerged from the wall with several rapidly expanding ripples from points, and the center of the ripple was the location that the adventurers had just touched. Where the ripples dissipated, the circle disappeared with it.

Among those who bounced off was Jack. Jack instantly drew the long sword at his waist, and a purple [Sword Qi] drew a half-moon-shaped trajectory and slashed towards the direction of Fang Cai's ripples. With a "boom", with the aftermath of the explosion and shock, Jack successfully offset the huge elastic force that popped up on the ripples, and turned over in the air and landed firmly on the ground. The others weren't so lucky. One by one, they didn't fall from the air until they were bounced out of a distance of more than ten meters, and it was enough to choke if they didn't die.

The sudden turn of events caused the nervous adventurers to quickly take into battle, their swords unsheathed, ready for battle.

"Don't be nervous, it's an enchantment. Jack said loudly. To calm the nervous adventurers, Jack slowly walked to the position of Fang Cai with his sword, stretched out his palm and slowly stroked it into the air. The "hum" sound was almost silent, and only Jack could faintly hear it, and the palm of his hand seemed to caress a cotton net, and even such a faint touch Jack could clearly feel the return of power from the cotton net.

Jack stepped back. Ryan, Feiqi, Kara, Yinfeng, and the other two leaders of the regiment surrounded him, along with the white-robed mages Naifa Li and Nanaluo.

"What's going on?" Yinfeng asked with concern.

"It's a kind of enchantment. And it seems to be an enchantment that can reflect attackers' attacks. Jack replied.

"Seeing that the entrance is right in front of you, it's really annoying to think of coming back to this one. It's better to have a fight. The leader of the Sea Lion Mercenary Regiment, Hyperrell, was obviously a rough line, and said indignantly.

"What do you think, Lord Naifa?" said Jack in a respectful tone. However, all enchantments and seals actually belong to the realm of magic, and as the only white-robed mage in the team, Nafa Li undoubtedly has the highest right to speak.

Li frowned, stared at the direction in which the magic circle appeared, and said slowly: "But if you want to break through the magic circle, there are only two ways. One is to forcibly break it with force beyond its reach, and the other is to rely on a deep understanding of the circle, starting from the eyes of the circle, finding out the nodes of each mana flow in the circle, and destroying them one by one, so that the circle can also be unlocked. ”

"Then we ......" Jack looked up at the huge king cobra statue, shook his head and immediately gave up the first method, to be able to cast such a large circle, I'm afraid only the Juggernaut can split.

Jack said, "I don't know anything about magic circles. I'm afraid you'll have to worry about it. ”

"Where, as it should be. The old man should do his best. However, I still have to trouble Lord Jack to shake the enchantment, and I will see if I can judge the position of the array eye by the vibration of the ripples.

"Good. Jack agreed. A lilac aura burst out of his body suddenly.

Vindictive!

The so-called fighting spirit is the "momentum" that the warrior awakens to his own existence and is tempered by continuous comprehension and tempering. "Qi" is "innate qi", and "potential" is a concrete power produced by qi in the continuous refining, compression, and collision. According to legend, the power released by the fighting energy of the sage can even have the effect of intimidating living beings. However, the record of Dou Qi in the Pan Continent is far from being perfected by the magic system, and legends are just legends after all. Regarding Dou Qi, the Pan Continent only knows that the generation of Dou Qi seems to be related to people's physical strength and thoughts.

Pan Continent will awaken the "innate qi" of the warrior as a sign of entering the realm of the grandmaster, called the great war master.

Fighting spirit varies from person to person, and so far the rank and quality have not been able to be studied, and the characteristics of different people's fighting spirit are also very different because of the difference in physical physiognomy. In the end, they can't escape the realm of magic, and they have the same goal.

According to the 221 year of the Magic Calendar, the Magicians Guild published the "Guanshi Tongjian", everything in the world is evolved from wind, fire, water, earth, light, and darkness.

"Fighting Qi Blade" --

Worthy of being the great swordsman on the [Battle Spirit List], Jack held the knight's long sword in his hand, and when he swung it, seven purple sword qi flew to different positions of the enchantment at the same time in the shape of a half-moon. In a series of piercing friction sounds, the qi blade conjured by the fighting qi slashed at the azure magic enchantment with a sharp blade, stirring up seven huge ripples, but the qi blade was finally beyond its strength, and was bounced into the air and collapsed. Unexpectedly, the good thing is that the goal has been achieved.

The moment the ripples appeared, the white-robed mage Naifa Li quickly gathered his mind and immersed all his spiritual power into the seven huge ripples.

"Wow, that's so handsome! Feige said. "Anyway, Ryan, when will you be able to awaken your innate qi, if you can fight it, it will be awesome. ”

Ryan had become accustomed to Feige's whimsy and was silent, his eyes fixed on the faded lilac afterglow on Jack's body. I don't know what I'm thinking.
