Have you ever had such doubts?—The prisoners in the torture chamber were whipped a lot and died, the soldiers on the battlefield were killed by many arrows in their legs, and the strong men on the stairs slipped and fell to their deaths. How can a whip kill someone? It doesn't hurt the vital point and doesn't bleed excessively; Wouldn't it be nice to pull out an arrow and wrap it around a bandage to stop the bleeding? There are no organs in the legs; and the skull is definitely harder than a wooden staircase!

The reality is cruel and life is fragile. Between life and death, there is a snap.

Half an hour ago, you carried the captain of the dark elves into the small dark room, closed the door, opened the magic curtain to prevent the magic mirror from peeping, and then cast an extremely murderous secret technique directly transmitted by little Kyle, intending to make the dark elf's head between unconscious and conscious. It was quite smooth at first, and we were very happy with each other. Now that I think about it, I just scribbled it, and many injuries are hidden in the body, and the electric shock injuries are inconspicuous. Maybe it's because of a heart rhythm disorder?

In short, she died, died at the dinner table, and there was a happy smile on her lips.

It's too ruthless, and the other party can't bear it at all. Even if there are few employees in your family who can withstand this kind of fierce attack, it can be described as a real means of torture.

I didn't ask for any new information, so I can't let Annette stand next to me and read her mind immediately, right? I guess I won't read anything other than a bunch of onomatopoeia.

embarrassed

Helpless

Awkward.

When you go back to the lobby of the restaurant and say that you have accidentally killed a captive, everyone's reaction is different.

Alyssa froze in horror and stunned, thinking that she had misheard something, and even suspected that she had misunderstood the basic laws of the main material plane; Annette showed an expression of admiration, unable to imagine the details, because you have always been very gentle with her; Leia has learned through the sharing of emotions, but the little head is not very able to handle complex information, just flies over and touches your head to express comfort; Melanie remembers her previous encounters, and instantly turns even paler. It was she who said, "It's all my fault, punish me", and she was tireless.

“...... I thought you wouldn't like torture, what a surprise. The girl's face was full of surprise, and she couldn't help blurting out, "Because you have a gentle and good man's face." ”

After hearing this, the three girls immediately turned their heads to hide their expressions. Melanie did understand the true meaning of your euphemistic reprimand, well, she should indeed leave the captives for you to execute personally, and will pay attention to it later.

Regardless, Captain Dark Elves died and vanished.

Annette respectfully offered food and water. She, Alyssa, and the maiden prisoner had sat down to rest while you were busy with that, eating the dry food and jerky that adventurers often bringed, and had no intention of camping on this trip. As it approached noon, the girls were hungry and tired.

You stare at the food that doesn't look very tasty, and you refuse until you're not too hungry. Maybe it has something to do with the accident just now.

Not hungry indeed. When Annette thought you were unwell and brought in the haute cuisine lunch box with her hands, it was full of flavor, but you were still not hungry. You may not need to eat or sleep since you first ate the remains, but it takes a little time for your body and mind to get used to it. After drinking poisoned wine and falling asleep for two days, you really feel that you have begun to gradually break away from the mortal body**.

You are moving forward on the path of God, step by step, in some unconventional process. I'm not hungry today, and I'm going to have hard insomnia tomorrow, perfect.

After the break,

Turn right to the lecture hall.

Although the map indicates that it is a lecture hall, there are still some gaps. Before it was captured by the adventurers, it was used to train the summoned orcs, and there were several large training grounds, wooden stakes, phantom simulation equipment, many bookcases around the hall, and many rows of seats in the center, as if the orcs were listening to classes.

Can the average IQ of orcs be studied by listening to lectures?

Your fingertips rubbed against the back of your chair, staining it with a layer of dust.

Although there are many furnishings and furnishings that have not yet been swept away by adventurers as the dungeon progresses, the bookcases here are intact and contain a large number of books. You know, in the days when printing technology was not available, many books were worth about a few gold coins, and were handwritten by extremely rare intellectuals on fine paper and ink, bit by bit, and could definitely be used as trophies on the way to adventure. But in front of you, the book is intact except for a few that have fallen on the ground.

Maybe it's because of the different positions, so the focus is also different. None of you are pure adventurers, and how much you can gain from this trip is more important than actively giving up a crucial point in the promotion assessment.

For example, technology.

"Grow, grow, look, what a magical operation!" Annette shouted excitedly, because when she walked to the opposite bookcase with one of the books in her arms, the book suddenly teleported back to its original position, "What is this?

Alyssa also tried: "At most, you can only take the book from the bookcase to the table and chair next to it, and if you are farther, the book will teleport back." ”

"It's not a reset of coordinates, it's a complete restoration, including the pages of the book that are missing and smudged. When I first became a vampire, I had seen such a technique in the castle library of the former master, not only to prevent thieves, but also to prevent stupid servants from breaking the books, and it was said that each book required a special spell and a lot of effort, but fortunately the previous master had the time. Melanie said that if the bookcase was destroyed, the magic would dissipate.

Why spend so much effort and time on books?

Just to prevent it from being stolen? It doesn't have to be on the first floor, but it should be hidden deep in the dungeon. There is only one reason for the city lord to do this, and that is that it is not easy to force the orcs to read and study, and if he does not do this, he is afraid that all the books will be eaten page by page. It is not difficult to imagine that a few years ago, there were intelligent and high-ranking instructors and scholars here who trained the orcs in combat and knowledge, and the instructors and scholars were also hired, and they needed to read books and were more likely to steal books.

Melanie is interested in books on territory construction and management, castle design and renovation, Anne has selected a few books on arcane arts, Alyssa is also unable to walk with books on training and teaching, and the young prisoner sits quietly at the table with picture books for the orcs to read. Everyone is very tacitly immersed in the sea of books in the lecture hall, after all, I saw that there are many advanced technologies in the dungeon although it is not beyond common sense, and the city lord is a lover of books and is willing to spend time on the protection of spells, which must be worth reading.

So do you.

Which book or two have you been interested in for a long time?

A, the author of "Lake Pulekana in the Eyes of Orcs" is a person who escaped to the orc tribe because of the transformation curse, and lived for three years, gaining an in-depth understanding of the unknown ecology, customs, values and ancient war songs of the orcs. With his hard work and courage, he earned a place among the orc tribe as a leader of twenty people, and fell in love with a half-orc woman on the shores of a beautiful lake called Flutterkana. When he finally regained his human form, his heart fell into an abyss of pain from which he could never recover—the eternal war between the Terrans and the Orcs, the hesitation and anguish of the half-orc wives who were not accepted by both the Terrans and the Orcs, and the collision of values between the glory of courage and the belief in justice. In the end, the author holds his wife, who is incarnated as a tomahawk, and leaves the book to find his own place of end. Orcs, by the way, are polygamous patriarchal societies.

B, the book "The Roar of the Flood - The Legendary Priest" records the life biography of a legendary hero named "The Roar of the Wild" that circulated in the era of orc war songs, a high priest. Compared to the absurd stories that seem to be level 100 epic god of war, the combat methods recorded in them are very specific and real. Orcs don't have arcane knights, and priests are also a special class that is both like a priest and a mage, and at the same time can also fight in close combat, and only this hero can do both melee spell casting in many war songs, which is worth referencing. Because the orcs have no writing, knowledge is limited to word of mouth, and the author vomits blood and balds in order to complete the book.

C, "Green Axe Enchantment Details" is a very solid and simple reference book, one by one densely detailed records of how orc priests or craftsmen should perform enchantment operations. Just as Landon's way is completely different from that of the Dwarves, the Orcs also have a unique way of making their own magic weapons. Although the number is scarce, without exception they are all powerful and extremely unrestrained pseudo-artifacts, and the difficulty of doing so is extremely high. In any case, this is not a technical knowledge that can be learned by a leader and adventurer, but the book will not be in vain, and the next time you craft a booster, new options will appear. The effect is purely based on the face, and the realization depends on the roll.

D, "The Shameless Warlords of Green" is a detailed account of more than 20 orc warlords who have fought against the author or won or lost from the perspective of the Terrans, and analyzes and summarizes their army command, logistics, command, discipline, mercenaries, alliances, sneak attacks, ranks, common tactics, tensions with priests, troop allocation, recruit training, promotion screening, etc., and importantly, all of them are hostile perspectives and all Terran force fields, which are very easy to understand and reference. No one can deny the strength of the orc race, their large military consciousness, tactical richness, and the lack of boring knightly glory norms, as evidenced by their abundance of activity in every era, winning and losing, winning and losing, ups and downs. It should help with the army-building aspect of the territory.

Leia fell asleep with a quill as a quilt, for before you knew it, you had been in the lecture hall for a long time.

No way, the book can't be taken away.

The three girls reluctantly left the bookcase with you, and you have to move on, you can't spend the night in the dungeon. After all, these books are all prepared around orcs and instructors, and I'm afraid the hardcore knowledge is still deeper in the dungeon.

Leia couldn't wake up.

On a normal basis, you'd put her on top of your head, and you would normally sit there anyway, but with the possibility of a fight at any moment, you stuffed her into Annette's chest. It's more stable.

"I accidentally watched it for too long. ”

"It's important to hurry, hurry. ”

"Yes, we can't stop ...... anymore."

Before the words fell, the three girls couldn't help but stop, attracted by the dazzling array of equipment in the laboratory.

Not far from the lecture hall is the laboratory area, which seems to have had a lot of materials and facilities from before, needless to say, and now it has been looted, but not to the extent that it has been looted. So the group stopped again.

The situation is stronger than before, and the only ones who are addicted to fresh experimental equipment are Melanie and Annette. You and Alyssa are alright.

Alyssa picks up a few glass jars soaked in mysterious objects, then gently lowers them and follows you around. You're mostly interested in a few arcane-related devices, and the other, more outlandish research is largely ignored.

Which research equipment did you fiddle with during your stay?

1. If you let go of a coin-sized object and cause it to fall through the ring on the left side of the magic device, the object will disappear and appear from the ring on the right, maintaining the speed of the previous free fall, and fall on the test table. Despite its spells and magical powers, the device is not as powerful as teleportation or constancy, a new and unheard-of teleportation technology that is impossible for the kingdom to exist today, and it is small but energy-efficient. Obviously, this technology is still under development, and even the city lord has not yet mastered it, so let other scholars work together to develop it.

2. If you press your hand on a crystal ball wrapped in lightning, your hair will all stand up due to static electricity. The current is very weak and does not cause any discomfort. There weren't any plastic spells or constancy spells on this device, not even a single bit, just intricate spells. Obviously, this technology is still under development, and it is speculated that the original purpose should be to develop electric shock weapons or obtain a constant source of energy, just like the constant heating technology of the pool water that the castle lord already has, and also want a constant weapon of war.

3. If you pour a small amount of mana into the hedron at hand, the circle next to it will summon a fly, an ordinary fly. During this time, you did not change the warp and latitude of the magic net at all, and you did not even build a spell in your head, but only provided a very slight energy source for the device. This technique is not the same as the Constant Summoning Circle, and it is speculated that the research intention should be to create a magic item that can also summon spells for most people. Again, it has not yet been developed.

4. There is a small fluorescent ball suspended between the two metal plates, and it will continue to change its shape freely with your mood, sometimes it is a butterfly, sometimes it is a heart, sometimes it is a sharp blade, and sometimes it is a feather, and the small pattern is quite psychedelic. You can feel the faint mana of the confusion control system, but its power may not be able to control even an ordinary insect, and it is not very accurate to correspond to your mood. It is speculated that the castle lord is probably developing a magic item that can independently detect the preferences of the target. The power and precision are not satisfactory, and they are still under development.

Then, at Alyssa's urging, you move on.

As we went deeper, there were traps along the way, but there were only three or four, all of which were trampled by Melanie unharmed.

Then you linger in the cistern area, crouching down to study the advanced construction technology you've never seen before in the nearby towns. Then you go around and go back to the restaurant lobby where you stopped when you rested...... That's right, it's back.

Annette pulled out her pocket watch—which was very expensive, even if it was only a few pinions and clockwork—and let out a "uh". Needless to say, you also know that you have come full circle in these areas, and the delay is a bit long.
