Chapter 9: Towards the New World
The gate, made of special magical materials, is carved with ninety-nine strange human faces with closed eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoPadra and Cardo tried their best to push it open, but the seemingly light door didn't move like a thousand pounds of boulder.
Maybe I can't open it with brute force, just as I was thinking like this, Il's weak voice sounded in my ears.
"This door needs to be infused with magic to open."
Damn, you didn't say it earlier, but now that you know how to open it, everything will be easy.
"Padla, Cardo, stand aside," I telepathically said to the two red-faced monsters gritting their teeth.
The two monsters obediently retreated to the side, and I slowly walked to the door under the gaze of more than two hundred monsters.
Placing a hand on the door, I poured magic into it.
It's just a door, see how easy it is for me to get you.
Through my continuous infusion of magic, the faces on the door opened their eyes.
I thought it would be effortless, but the reality showed that I underestimated this door. I felt that the magic in my body was greedily devouring the human faces, and as the human faces opened their eyes one after another, the magic power also dropped rapidly, and finally after the last human face opened its eyes, the door opened on its own. Although the whole process only lasted about a minute, it felt like it was dozens of times longer, and even made me worry about whether my magic would be drained all at once.
Eventually, half of my mana was consumed! It requires such a large amount of magic that even if you gather the magic power of all the monsters present, you can't open it. Then I agree with you a little, you are an excellent door! However, it's really unsettling, I haven't even found a way to replenish my mana, and I've already consumed so much mana.
Putting aside the sadness in my heart for a moment, I looked at the secret room in front of me with anticipation.
What, isn't this ordinary!
Without any ornate decorations and no magic, the whole chamber looks like a normal room. In the center is a circular pattern with a radius of two meters similar to a magic array, and there are strange crystals with unknown uses placed around it, which should be the teleportation magic array that Il said. The space of the entire secret room is not very large, and it can accommodate about 30 monsters at most, so I, Il, and Zac will enter first.
After walking around the rock wall of the chamber, I found a beautiful box in the square hole in the back, and I had a hunch that I couldn't wait to open it, which contained a translucent ring.
The material resembles a diamond or a crystal, and although the entire ring is quite smooth, it radiates brilliant colors as if it has countless facets when illuminated by the light, and if you look closely, you can see strange runes that appear and disappear from time to time.
Regardless of whether it has magical powers or not, it is already worth a lot of money in terms of such exquisite craftsmanship. Of course, this is only my conclusion based on the knowledge of the original world. So, I put on the first piece of gear I found in this world with gratitude.
However, the ring still seemed a little too big for my fleshless finger.
Just when I was feeling frustrated, something unexpected happened, the ring automatically changed size according to the shape of my finger. The material has changed from diamond to bone, and although the original brilliant color has changed to a dull grayish white, I can feel that the magic power that has been consumed in my body is recovering little by little.
As if something had been forgotten was being recalled, information about the ring came to my mind.
The Extreme Ring, one of the Seven Holy Relic, is a world-class treasure that can infinitely restore the wearer's magic and give it the ability to strengthen physical strength and accelerate learning.
What the! This ring is so good! Regardless of what physical enhancement and accelerated learning are, the infinite return of magic alone is invincible, okay?
Thank you to the Buddha, thank you to Jesus, thank you to Jack Ma! Suddenly, I felt like the world was in my hands! No, I have to keep a low profile now, and I can't let others know that I have such a treasure!
Suppressing my joyful heart, I pretended to be casual and looked at Zack, "It seems that there are no mechanisms here, so let's line up and enter the magic circle." ”
Sax nodded to me in understanding.
The monsters lined up in a column outside the secret room, and then entered the magic circle one by one under the command of Zac. The activation of the teleportation magic array was even easier than I imagined, and it was enough to just stand on it, and I easily sent away ten monsters.
However, when the eleventh monster stood up, it did not glow like the monsters that were sent away before and then disappeared, and the magic array did not activate!
Maybe the magic circle didn't sense it, so I telepathically motioned for the monster to stand up again and try it, but it still couldn't be activated.
Disturbing voices began to spread among the monsters.
Could it be that because it is an emergency escape route, it will be invalid after being launched for fear of being pursued? No, if that's the case, just set it to once. Then it should be that you need to use it again after a period of time, the key is how long is this time interval, an hour? One day? If it's a year, it's bad!
"Don't panic! After using the magic circle, you will need to wait for a while before you can use it again, and you can continue to teleport tomorrow! "Although it was only speculation, I felt the air outside the secret room that was starting to get agitated, so I decided to calm everyone down first. Using telepathy to convey the words to each monster, everyone finally regained their calm.
At this point, Il came to me with a listless look, "Lord Kirgaru, do you have the magic to conjure food, I'm so hungry." ”
Ah, there's a lot going on with this guy.
I put my hand on my forehead.
Wait a minute! Since I'm an undead and don't need to eat, I've been ignoring a crucial issue from the beginning. That is, all the creatures present except me need to eat just as much as Il. Even if you can teleport 10 monsters a day, it will take 22 days to teleport all 220 creatures here, so what should you do with the food and water supply during this time? If we don't solve this problem, I'm afraid that in a few days, the monsters will start killing each other.
Ah, it's really troublesome, it feels like my head hurts, but what does this have to do with me, anyway, as long as I can get out, the life or death of these monsters has nothing to do with me.
Ignore it! Turning his head to the side, but his heart began to struggle violently again, and the scene of the monsters fighting and eating each other came to mind, ah, it was still too inhumane to ignore it like this.
"Il-imp, you said there was a storage room here, could there be food in it?"
"That's right! As it belongs, Lord Kilgaru, I didn't expect that if it wasn't taken by the invaders, there would be a lot of them. Il's eyes sparkled, and even saliva began to flow.
"Then go and see, Il, get up and lead the way!"
Thinking that if there was food in the storage room, it would need to be carried down, so he asked Zac to select 50 strong monsters to go with us. So Il and I went to the storage room with 50 monsters, while the remaining monsters of the Zac organization rested in place.
This time it seemed fortunate that the food in the pantry was not taken away. But is this really a storeroom? It completely turned my impression of it upside down. I have the impression that what is stored in the pantry should be food that has been treated with preservatives. However, the scene in front of me is completely different, as if walking into a supermarket, vegetables, meat, fruits, and alcohol are all available, and they are all surprisingly fresh, fish and shrimp and other aquatic products are still jumping, not at all like they have been stored for a long time, it seems that they are used magic to keep them fresh, but this is really amazing, it feels like the refrigerator has been completely eliminated.
The contents of the pantry felt like they couldn't be eaten for a year, and the problem of food and water was finally solved.
With such a sumptuous meal in front of you, it felt like the monsters were not in a hurry to leave, so at Sark's suggestion, we turned on the banquet mode.
I was still feeling a trace of joy that my body didn't have to eat, but after witnessing the monsters' nonsense eating and drinking, it fell apart in an instant. Ah, I miss the taste of meat so much, I want to drink so much, no, no, no, this kind of thing that can only do and watch others eat is simply inhuman torture! Unable to do it in every way, I wailed from the bottom of my heart.
"Lord Kilgaru! Vomit! Even though you, you look horrible, but, vomit! But you're a nice guy, gag! "I'll tear up my voice as if you're talking to me, but you're pointing at the air around me! I'm not there at all, okay! Anyway, how much have you drunk, are you drunk and not decent, okay, this rickety body has no balance at all, I really admire that you can stand for so long!
"Lord Kilgaru! I ......" Zac also sat down in front of me.
"Huh?" I looked at it and waited for the next words, but the family lowered their heads and stopped talking, and then there was a snoring sound. Feed! Are you asleep, you must be asleep! Anyway, I can finish talking and then go to sleep, it's very uncomfortable!
It's all a bunch of guys who are selfish and don't care about other people's feelings!
It seems that everyone except me is drunk and happy. Suddenly there is a feeling of being abandoned by the whole world, ah, in fact, I don't envy them at all, it will be very uncomfortable to wake up tomorrow when you are so drunk, no! The next three days will be very uncomfortable!
I don't envy it! While drawing circles on the ground with his fingers, he hypnotized himself like this, no! It's not self-hypnosis! It's the truth, the truth!
The next day was in a state of sleepiness, and of course I was still awake. As expected, the teleportation magic array was working normally the next day. This time, I let the three monsters enter the magic circle together.,After the successful teleportation of 3 groups,The three monsters in the 4th group only teleported away.,It seems that the number is fixed every day, not the number of times.。 But there's plenty of food anyway, so you won't be lonely while waiting.
Of course, this is for anyone other than me.
So in order to keep myself up and to prevent myself from being unable to use my magic, I decided to learn fighting techniques from Zac, and I was surprised to find that my body was actually quite suitable for hand-to-hand combat. Generally speaking, a muscular body like mine has an advantage in speed, but it is not suitable for hand-to-hand combat due to its lack of strength and resistance to hitting, but due to the influence of the permanent skill of "body strengthening", I have no problem in terms of strength and resistance at all. In addition, the skill of "accelerated learning" allows me to speed up the mastery of the technique by several times, so it seems that I can try to fight without relying on magic in the future.
In this way, I made the most of the waiting time, and I continued to improve my fighting skills, and at the same time taught Il some magic. Slowly, I became familiar with Zac and the monsters, and some of the monsters asked me to follow me. To be honest, I wanted to live casually, but when I was thinking about how to express it in euphemistic language, that guy Il confidently agreed for me, and said a lot of flattering words, so I felt fluttering and agreed, ah, I really can't listen to good words!
Thinking of being a fair and just leader, I decided to let the monsters that didn't follow me leave first, and of course they could bring as much food as they wanted, and the monsters who followed me would stay behind. I thought there would be some objections, but the monster didn't express dissatisfaction, but shouted energetically.
Ah, it's always hard to take a bunch of monsters to make a living in the future, but it might be fun, so it's a step at a time.
At first, it felt like a long time, but the 22 days that really passed in a blink of an eye, and finally we all arrived on the ground, and there were 63 monsters following me this time. They are:
1 forest troll, war general level, five and a half stars;
1 wild boar man, warrior level, four and a half stars;
1 bear monster, warrior level, four and a half stars;
10 giant wolves, enhanced, three-star;
20 kobolds, ordinary grade, two stars;
30 goblins, normal, one star.
