Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Curtain Rises

“…… The place is close to the Nebula Mountains, so the mining industry has become a pillar industry, but recently, absenteeism seems to have dug something terrible, the entire mining area, including the wild, constantly appears all kinds of undead creatures and dark underground monsters, there have been many absenteeism and adventurers have been killed, mining operations have been completely stopped, and the miners' federation refuses to mobilize absenteeism to go down the mine. Nearby towns offer high bounties to clear the mines of monsters and undead. ”

Lias and Wu Chen sat in the tavern, waiting for the other core members of the mercenary group, while listening to the briefing of this mission, talking about the druid introduced yesterday, the name Wu Chen did not remember, the appearance is burly, brown skin, a big beard, the equipment on the body is also very strange, the armor woven from green leaves and rhizomes is very original and weird.

Commander Yakoto changed his cordial and enthusiastic appearance yesterday and fully entered the role of team commander, he added: "Even if there is a high bounty, it is not enough to mobilize the entire mercenary group, we have second- and third-level echelons, and they can just go and sharpen and train." However, a few days ago, something that came out of a special channel changed our opinion greatly, and this thing our two mages haven't seen yet......"

A three-faced statue of a god with a faint gray-black halo lying quietly on the palm of Yakoto, Wu Chen felt his heart shake at a glance, and the words in his ears, the people and things around him became distant, and the whole world was focused on that small statue.

“…… Figo, Figo!"

Wu Chen broke free from this strange mental state, his face turned a little pale, and when he looked at the statue again, he didn't have the weird reaction just now, just like the previous one was just an illusion of his.

“…… It's an image of an ancient god, and it's certain that he's fallen...... That's not the point, the point is, this statue could be from a ruin, yes, a relic from the Thor-period! Guys, there might be a remnant of the Age of Wonders hidden under that mine, and yes, if we're lucky, we'll be rich!"

There was a burst of excited singing and laughter, and the personnel had arrived one after another, everyone was high-spirited and excited, Wu Chen suppressed the change in his heart, and looked the same as his companions around him.

"This time we have two official spellcasters, oh~~, Figo, have you registered as an adventurer?" asked the head with a smile.

Wu Chen nodded and handed his mercenary badge to the regiment leader.

"Alright, welcome to the Fox Hunt Mercenary Regiment, respected magician Mr. Figo!" the head of the regiment smiled and threw the badge back, Wu Chen took it and put it on his left chest.

Breakfast was a steak meal with ale, and the nine core members easily finished their meal, and before leaving Turin, they finally prepared some fresh food and clean fresh water, and arrived at the mercenary group station located outside the city.

The destination is about a day's journey from Turin, and Wu Chen has not yet figured out the conversion relationship between weights and kilometers. After an hour of preparation and busyness, an elite force of two hundred people set off with abundant supplies and vehicles.

These two hundred mercenaries are fundamentally different from Vivian's grassroots at the bottom, everyone here is beaten from the second-, third-, and fourth-tier teams attached to the mercenary group, in addition to their outstanding skills and rich adventure experience, the talent and potential to become a formal professional are the prerequisites for selection.

This talent and potential is the elemental affinity physique.

As soon as you get out of the sphere of influence of Turin, the wilderness and primitive jungle become the main body, except for the scattered towns and villages, in the wilderness and jungle, all kinds of beasts and subspecies are everywhere, the blood stains and bones on the roadside all tell the danger and savagery of this world, civilization only exists near the city-state, and the only thing that can protect itself in the wild is force.

The elite force of two hundred people, up to a team of nine full-fledged professionals, will not be patronized by bandits, a few bear goblins with unclear brains are chopped and crushed, Wu Chen is sitting in a heavily protected carriage, Lias is memorizing spells, and he is studying the gift of Uuris, the spell book.

Yes, it is the spell book that records the spell structure model, which Yuris used when he was a beginner mage, from the first level to the third level, more than thirty spell structure models, at this time, Wu Chen is studying the first formal spell structure, that is, the "rainbow jet" that Lias used twice.

A thin page of parchment, ordinary people only look at the swirls of color swirling, and they will be dizzy after a few seconds of looking at it. But under Wu Chen's spiritual perception, it is a three-dimensional model in the shape of a cone, slowly rotating, each line is a path for magic to run, and the collection of each path is a magic circuit, each magic circuit has different functional effects, and all the circuits are combined and connected together, which is a rainbow jet.

The lines of the pathways are so cumbersome that the circuits formed by them are like stones that accumulate into a pyramid of rainbow jets. Wu Chen needs to memorize them completely, and there can't be the slightest difference...... Oh no, he still needs to figure out the principle and function of every line, every loop, to truly understand and master, just because he is an arcane, and memorizing that is not enough.

From morning to evening, from departure to camping, the silver light in Wu Chen's eyes never disappeared, the more he studied, the more he felt that this structural model was like an integrated circuit diagram, and this circuit diagram eventually constituted an "electrical appliance" called rainbow jet, and now what he needed to do was to figure out the function of each part, and finally deduce its composition principle, so that he could finally master this magic completely, and then he could innovate and improve.

The team camped by a small river, and it was not until all the work was done that the two high spellcasters woke up from their respective work, folded the two spell books, nodded to each other, stepped out of the carriage, and under the respectful guidance of the mercenaries, entered the tent where the leaders had gathered.

A bonfire was lit in the center of a wide tent, and seven formal professionals enjoyed a sumptuous dinner while listening to the scouts who explored the way, while Wu Chen and Lias sat at a small table that had been specially vacated, and the dinner was still meat steak, mushroom soup, and ale.

"Everyone, it's not going to be peaceful any further, except for the mage, tonight we have to keep vigil!" After the scout left, the head of the regiment made a decision.

was about to usher in the first real adventure and battle, but Wu Chen inexplicably thought of his elf slave girl, I don't know how to do what he told her before leaving, those 40 gold coins are enough to buy a mansion in Turin, it is very doubtful.

What he didn't know was that after this adventure, when he set foot in Turin again, it would be ten years later!

He couldn't imagine what he would encounter, what he would gain, and what he would understand in this adventure!
