"Uh...... Mistress Roger, please come this way with me."

In the lonely cave passage, Carlos, who was a little blindfolded, waved his hand busily, and the unconscious Igor walked quickly to the front, observing the situation in front of him, and then motioned for Roger to follow.

"Actually, we really knew that we had rehearsed the situation of the camp being breached before, and we had also drawn a lot of escape routes, but we didn't expect that they would not be used in the end, and no one would have thought that the law enforcement team would be able to easily break through the fog barrier......"

After a moment of darkness, at a fork in the road, Carlos stopped, and looked at the slippery and rough rock wall for a long time, only then did he find a hidden gap to push away the hidden boulder, revealing the dark passage behind it, "This is it, this is the fastest way to go." ”

To this, Roger just nodded, and did not respond again. To be honest, from the moment he set foot in the underground camp, Roger found that whether it was the law enforcement team that searched and suppressed or the True Knowers who were hiding, their behavior always made people feel like children were at home, which may be related to the perennial isolation of the necromantic underworld, and the deeper reason still needs Roger to continue to observe.

"Click"

Carlos led the way in the dark, dodging falling rocks and debris on the ground.

Affected by the previous explosion, the structure of the entire tunnel roof has become extremely unstable, and the huge crack extends from the depths of the cave to the top of Carlos's head, but fortunately, the rock mass burst has ended at this time, but the rubble that falls from time to time is always indispensable.

On the other hand, Roger was much more relaxed, following behind Carlos, who was sweating profusely, grabbing Wren's ankle with his right hand and backhand, regardless of whether he had close contact with the stones protruding from the ground, he dragged him on the ground like that, and before he went far, Wren was bruised and swollen by the bump, and it was really hard for him to wake up from such torture.

"If you can't see the road clearly, just say it, what are you doing with it?" Seeing Carlos stumbling in the dark, Roger snapped his fingers helplessly, and in an instant, a soft glow of light swirled around Carlos, illuminating the dry rock wall and his reddish face.

"Or do you have any other ideas, little fat man?" Roger, who had already figured out some clues, summoned a few more clusters of light, and said with a smile.

couldn't help but poke at the floating light cluster in front of him, knowing that he would be rejected, Carlos gritted his teeth and still spoke: "My lord, Ryan has briefly described to me several secret art models you have mastered before, but the situation was not clarified in a hurry just now, Carlos still hopes that the adult can teach it personally." ”

"Oh, the basic magic model, although this knowledge has long been rotten on the street, but how do you know that what I teach Ryan will definitely teach you?" Roger continued to maintain a smirk, but Carlos's deeper thoughts were not broken.

There was silence for a long time, and just as Carlos sighed secretly, thinking that it was hopeless, the light that originally surrounded him slowly floated to Roger's fingertips, converging with the rest of the light clusters, intertwining with each other, rendering psychedelic light and shadow.

In the flickering passage, Roger said in a lazy voice: "Forget it, I will teach you sooner or later, since you are so 'studious', it doesn't hurt to tell you earlier." ”

"Listen carefully, I'll only say it once, and then you won't have to come when I teach Lilith to them. ”

After speaking, seeing a trace of imperceptible panic on Carlos's face, Roger raised the corners of his mouth and pretended to be nothing: "As you know, what I taught Ryan was the 'Good-Carmela Classic Six Basic Magic Model', which was the most widely circulated version of the model when I left the pan-continent. ”

"If you are still in the pan-continent, this is the basis for the apprentices to learn magic, and on this basis, after several generations of experimental deduction, hundreds of models and nearly 10,000 kinds of magic have been derived, of course, those are naturally secrets that are not passed down from family to family. ”

Seeing Carlos pulling his ears, lest he miss a word, Roger didn't know what he thought, put away a little bit of joking, and said seriously: "According to the element hexagram, the first thing is the model of 'wind', and the model of simply building the wind corresponds to level 0 tricks, breezes, the standard mana cost is 0.32 gourdes, the construction model should meet at least 72 nodes, and the standard model is the right-handed vortex." ”

"Next is the model of 'fire', the model that simply builds fire corresponds to a level 0 trick, burning flames, the standard mana cost is 0.64 gourdes, the number of nodes required to build the model is 108, and the standard model is a curved pentagram. ”

Hearing these unfamiliar terms, this made Carlos confused, and seeing that Roger did not mean to stop, Carlos had to concentrate on writing down every word he said.

"The model of 'water' should be the simplest of the six element models, which is also the first one that normal apprentices should come into contact with and master, the model of building water alone corresponds to level 0 tricks, water balloon, the standard mana cost is 0.27 gourdes, the number of nodes required to build the model is 43, and the standard model is a regular tetrahedron. ”

"The model of 'earth' is a bit more complicated, so the model that simply builds the earth element corresponds to a level 1 spell, the earth thorn technique, the standard mana cost is 0.88 gud, the number of nodes required to build the model is 142, and the standard model is two spinning cubes. ”

As if suddenly remembering something, Roger added: "By the way, it is worth mentioning that for a long time, the magic academic community has believed that there is no corresponding level 0 trick for 'earth', and this stubborn view was not overthrown until AE 1350 by the Violet Empire's royal archmage Huisnar, through the re-deconstruction of the classic 'Gu-Mei' model, Huisnar finally discovered that the model is no less complex than the level 0 trick of second-level magic, and the element shaping corresponding to 'earth', of course, this is already advanced knowledge." ”

"As for the final 'light' and 'dark' models, it can be said together, the standard magic consumption of both is 1 gourde, the number of nodes built is 187, 190, the standard model is the reverse folding hyperbolic bar, interestingly, only the model that meets the 3 key nodes corresponds to the light, and the removal is dark, but I don't know how the Gude found such a construction law back then. ”

"And what about their secret techniques?" Carlos asked.

"Well, it's similar to this, it's a level 0 trick, a flash technique. Roger scratched his head, and a soft light fluttered around his body, "When the 'stable' model structure is added to the model of light, it is the first-order magic in front of you, illumination. ”

"As for the dark one...... Roger gave an incomprehensible expression, "it doesn't have a base magic counterpart, because it's erased!"

"Wipe...... Erased!?sir, what does that mean?" Carlos asked urgently.

For some reason, Roger didn't respond for a while, but just laughed twice, and the weird laughter echoed in the cave, making Carlos creepy and terrified.

"Allow me to tell you a story

In a way that celebrates nature

In this frenzied century, in this crazy moment

Tell you a story

Make it into a galaxy

Look at it depicting the silver man

The story is called Time

But you must not name it

Since then

You and me, the story of buried joy......."

Humming the elven tune that Elway had been on his lips, Roger squinted and changed his hand comfortably, and continued to drag Wren like a dead pig, and said indifferently: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, the problem is that I don't know much about it...... Okay, don't look at me like that, that's all for today's magic class, let's go, everyone should be in a hurry. ”

Although he was still puzzled, Fang Cai's laughter gave him goosebumps, and Carlos had to gather his thoughts and lead the way, and the two suddenly fell silent again.

After a while, Roger, who couldn't bear it, looked around and asked Carlos seemingly casually, "By the way, how did you expose it?" Looking at the way you were hiding in the desert before, if you hadn't taken the initiative to appear, the law enforcement team wouldn't have noticed this cave, right?"

"We don't know," he said with his sleeve and gently wiping the fine sweat from his forehead, apparently physical strength was not Carlos's strength, "when Igor returned to the underground camp to see you in, I was studying the magic model that Ryan had told me in the little cave where I usually hid, and the surroundings were as calm as ever. ”

Then the bastards suddenly appeared near the entrance of the cave as if they had fallen from the sky, and without hesitation, rushed straight over, as if they knew there were people. ”

Speaking of this, Carlos recalled with a frown: "Although I was a little panicked, I also passed on the news of the warning, and just when I was about to lie there and wait for them all to enter the cave passage, Igor happened to send you up and collided with the law enforcement team. ”

"You know all about it later," Carlos lifted Igor up on top of him, and continued, "This guy was put down and tied up by the guards in two clicks, but fortunately they didn't send anyone to guard it, so I had a chance to save Igor, but I didn't expect this brainless tendon to want to go down to die, and I could only accompany him." ”

Playing with the diamond-shaped beacon in his hand, Roger thought to himself, "Is it a coincidence that there is no one to guard the captives, or is this thing limited in its control? is it just a repeater?, in this case, the control center of the real Arcane Servant should still be somewhere in the ruins, and the radiation range is so wide......"

The details of that night's brief sneak flashed through his mind, and finally froze on the pale golden mage's eye floating in mid-air, and Roger unconsciously smiled at the corner of his mouth, bounced the beacon up like a coin, and then grabbed it violently.

"Alright, that's it. ”

In Roger's moaning of excitement, the two also walked to the end of the passage, and when Roger adjusted to the light in the hollow, there were all the people of the True Knowing Guild who were half-kneeling in front of him. Juan, Defana, Walter, and Ryan lined up, and Lilith stood in front of her with her staff in hand, a few strands of hair that were windless.

"I'll go, are you trying to force the palace?" Roger held back for a long time.

Today's Roger is still out of tune.
