The map floating in the air was missing a piece and looked awkward. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Trem clicked casually, and a few more points of light flew out of the book, reassembling the missing map. Then he closed the book, and the map turned into a point of light again and flew back into the book. The book on cartography does not contain a single drawing, but is full of spell formulas written in the Numani language. It is these formulas that make up the complex magic of cartography, and the more complex the content of cartography, the more detailed the map will appear.

"This book is in the collection of my grandfather, who is an alternative in our clan and never likes to fight, but likes to read. I get dizzy when I read a book, and I can barely read some of the lore stories of weapons. Grandpa didn't force me and my dad to read, but he asked us to look at the map. Other books may not be useful, but maps are. Tremmore said, holding the bumpy cover.

"Okay, let's not talk about that. Trem picked up the map and put it back in the bookshelf. Then he took out two packages from the corner, placed them on the table, and said, "Here are some salt and holy water, as well as dry food and bandages. I don't know if it's useful, but I'll let you take it with you. ”

Evan took the package, saddled it on his back, and said goodbye to Trem with Agrina. According to the map, the entrance to the ghost-infested mine is about twenty miles northeast of the lava fortress. It could have been possible to get there in the mine, but since it was haunted, the express minecart has been detoured.

Twenty miles is not far away, but it is not close to it, and if you walk, it will be noon. However, according to Chu He's memory, that time was the time when the yang energy was at its most vigorous, and it should have a great restraint effect on ghosts.

As they walked along the road, Evan and Agrina chatted about magic.

"I've heard that the clergy are very hostile to mages, what do you think?"

"I don't think so, although many shamans in the clan hate mages, but let's just say hostile. The main thing is that mages don't believe in any gods and are very disrespectful to them. ”

"I see, are you going to study magic?"

"No, in fact, magic is just magic without prayer. For us, serving the gods can perform magical arts, and there is no need to study magic at all. ”

"But a lot of things in the world are bypassable, maybe what new magic can be researched?"

Speaking of this, Agrina stopped, looked at Aven with a serious face, and said, "Aven, there is one thing you must remember! Divine art is a favor given to us by God, only God gives us, and we cannot ask for it. All the clergy who study the new divine art are evil traitors!"

Seeing that she said so solemnly, Ai Wen was also shocked for a moment, and muttered, "Well, I know." ”

"You don't have to be so afraid," Agrina put away her serious expression, "There are very few people like this, and they are basically hunted down by the sect they belong to, and the probability of encountering them is really too low." You must know that the strength of a sect is very terrifying, although I dare not say that it is comparable to a country, but in fact, it is not much worse. ”

"It turns out that the sect is so strong, so if the lord believes in a certain sect, can he get some support from the sect?" Sure enough, Agrina had a teasing expression when she heard this.

"Yes, you're quick-witted. That's right, whether it's the human Allen Empire or our tribe, as long as you are a lord and worship a certain sect as the main sect in your territory, you can get a lot of support from that sect. And that's just in our relatively liberal West, where sectarianism is even more powerful. The entire eighty eastern countries belong to the Radiant Holy Sect, and the appointment and dismissal of the kings of these countries must be approved by the Radiant Holy Sect. ”

"So choosing a denomination is really important. If you choose a weaker denomination, you may not be able to get strong support. If you choose a strong sect, you may be stripped of your power. It's complicated. Evan sighed.

"Okay, let's weigh these things after you become a lord. You see, the entrance to the mine should be not far ahead. Agrina pointed to the road sign ahead, which said that it was still fifty meters away from the entrance to the mine.

As he stood on tiptoe, Evan saw that the road had turned a short distance away, and the dense bushes obscured the situation there. The two quickened their pace, and soon arrived at the entrance of the mine.

Although this mine was dug by dwarves, in fact, even if Aven entered it, he would not feel short. Dwarves are actually not short in height, basically around 1.8 meters. It's just that who called the dwarf born in the giant pile, the average height of human beings is two meters. However, many dwarves have an inexplicable obsession with height, and the houses they build will be carried out according to the standards of tall people, so the dwarf buildings are actually suitable for everyone to live in.

Evan looked up at the sky, it was already noon, and after walking such a long way, both of them were a little hungry. Evan took water and dry food out of the package and prepared to make do with it. As soon as he had nibbled on two mouthfuls of hard dry food, he saw a hare jump out of the grass. Evan immediately pulled out the dagger and threw it, and the dagger flew out with a "whoosh", but it didn't hit.

Evan sighed, and was about to pick up the dagger and go back, when he heard a "boom", the gray hare was hit by a flash of lightning and collapsed directly to the ground, and when Evan walked over, it was still twitching there.

"Now it's time to add food!" said Evan excitedly, picking up the dagger to skin and bleed the hare. Agrina, who had just performed her magic skills, also excitedly helped to collect firewood, and after a while, Aven disposed of the hare, pierced various parts of the rabbit with a stick, and roasted them on the fire.

Although Ai Wen hadn't cooked a few times, the Chu River in his memory had always been his own life. Although Chu He is an otaku and has a sloppy life, he also has rich experience in cooking. Evan sprinkled salt and spices in order from his memory, and in a few moments, the oily roasted hare was bursting with a rich aroma.

Evan looked at the heat and felt that it was ready to eat, so he put out the fire and began to eat the dry food. The hare is very fat, and after roasting, a mouthful of oil fills the mouth. However, because of this, dry food that is difficult to swallow can be easily eaten.

After eating and wiping it clean, Ai Wen picked up a relatively long piece of firewood from the fire that had just been extinguished and shook it, and the firewood that had not been completely extinguished immediately burned violently. Agrina brought some hay, and Aven tied it to the side of the wood to burn, and made a simple torch.

Evan led the way into the mine with a torch. Many of the rocks in the cave are weathered and smooth to the touch. It's just that the further you go, the more rugged it becomes. The light of the torches flickered in and out of the mine, sometimes less than three meters visible, and every time the light dimmed, Aven felt a chill on his body.

"Be careful, it looks like it's not easy here. I don't know how many people have died in this mine, or if this mine can gather ghosts. In short, there are a huge number of ghosts here, so be sure to concentrate and not be affected by the ghosts. Agrina scanned her surroundings and said warily in a combative stance.

When Ai Wen heard this, he immediately drew his sword, carrying a torch in one hand and a sword in the other. When he drew his sword, I don't know if it was an illusion, and some whispers came from his ears: "It's silver...... Quickly ...... back" and the torches came back to light, and it looked like the sword had scared the spirits away.

"Spirits are only the lowest spirits, they are not conscious of their own, and are easily influenced and dominated by higher spirits. Agrina spread knowledge to Aven, "But don't underestimate the ghosts, when there are so many ghosts, even the high-level professionals will be affected by their negative emotions. ”

Evan nodded, his eyes wide open into the darkness, some fluctuations were faintly visible, it should be a ghost. Spirits are largely invisible and cannot inflict physical damage, but when their energy is strong, they can also affect the physical plane. Some spirits can use telekinesis to inflict damage on the living, while others directly affect the soul of the living, and can even take possession of the body of the living and be reborn.

Ai Wen carefully observed the fluctuations of the spirit, aimed at the opportunity, and slashed down with a sword. I only heard a scream, and a puff of white smoke inexplicably rose from the air, and then there was a "click" on the ground, and a soul spar fell.

"It's called a soul crystal, and it's not very useful except for being beautiful. Some warlocks and voodoo may be useful, and some master smiths are said to know how to use this thing. You can collect some of them, and maybe Master Roger will be able to use them. Agrina picked up the Soul Crystal, observed it, and threw it to Aven.

"Soul crystals are the crystallization of souls, but low-level spirits like ghosts are basically spars full of impurities. And the more advanced Wraiths will be able to drop slightly cleaner crystals. Although this thing is not particularly precious, it is still relatively valuable. You should be short of money right now, so you might as well collect it all and sell it to a Warlock for a good pay. Agrina prompted.

Evan nodded, and continued to hunt the spirits, this time much more aggressively. Sometimes Agrina will help, but not with magic spells, but directly with a warhammer. The magic sensitivity of this war hammer should be very good, and ordinary substances cannot harm spirits, but magic sensitive materials are naturally exceptional.

Magic Sensitive Material is a very important material in forging, and Magic Sensitive refers to magic sensitivity. In fact, this sensitivity is measured in the same way as divine arts, so many clerics can use mage weapons. Materials with low magic sensitivity are basically unable to conduct magic and divine power, which is the case with ordinary metals. Materials with a certain amount of magic sensitivity can be used to make magic weapons, and even if you can't cast magic yourself, you can seal one or two magic spells in the weapon, and then trigger them in battle.

As for the materials with high magic sensitivity, they are made into legendary weapons. If the forger is highly skilled, and has the support of a powerful mage, he may even forge an artifact. However, although it is not impossible for mortals to forge artifacts, it is also very rare. For example, the sword used by Ai Wen, according to the grade, should be a sophisticated weapon. But if there is a mage who inscribes runes on the sword and enchants it, it can reach the epic level.

"Earth spirits protect all beings!" said Aglina a prayer, summoning an earthy yellow spirit. The elf approached Aiwen, and Aiwen immediately felt a surge of power, and his physical strength also recovered a lot.

"What kind of magic is this?" said Aven in surprise.

"This is the summoning of the spirit of the earth, and it is the most commonly used divine technique by shamans besides totemism. When you don't have a totem pole, it's a very convenient alternative. It's just that the divine power is consumed a lot. Agrina said as she controlled the Earth Spirit to fly around, "This magic can add effects to the Earth Spirit like totemism, and I attach the power of the Earth to increase strength and restore physical strength. ”

"I'm going to control the Earth Spirit to explore this mine and investigate the cause of the formation of the ghost mine. Agrina commanded the Earth Spirit to glow with an earthy yellow glow, and a dark map appeared in Aven's mind, showing a clear map at the entrance and obscuring it from the fog. As the Earth Spirit flew into the cave under Agrina's control, the fog of the map vanished.

As the Earth Spirit progresses, the terrain of the mine is revealed. Just as the two of them were waiting for the exploration of the mine to be completed, the point of light on the map showing the Earth Spirit suddenly disappeared.

"Oh no! It looks like there is a powerful spirit not far inside, and it can directly attack the spirit of the earth. Agrina's face turned pale and her body trembled, and it seemed that the death of the Earth Spirit had also caused some damage to her.

"Forget it, there's no need to explore the way, let's go inside!" Evan comforted Agrina as he scanned the fluctuations around him, looking for a chance to fight.

The two of them walked all the way in, and since the spirit of the earth had explored some paths, they had taken many detours. Along the way, Evan counted at least a dozen or so ghosts eliminated.

"It's not right, there are so many ghosts here! It's not that there's been a big mining disaster, it's probably something here that attracts spirits. Agrina analyzed.

"Yes, but the latter is more likely. If there's a big mining disaster here, Trem won't hide it. What do you think attracts spirits?" asked Aven.

"It could be special terrain like the Eye of Darkness, or it could be some kind of treasure. ”

"I hope it's a treasure! Evan laughed.

As they spoke, they walked to the place where the Earth Spirit had disappeared. It is a spacious cave, about the size of more than 100 square meters. In the middle of the cavern, a large dark purple ball floated.
