With a deafening sound.

The mining cart slowly docked on an unmanned platform.

The driver yawned and kicked the door.

He was just about to call the newcomer to unload.

Who knew that at a glance, there was no one in the second carriage.

The driver rubbed his eyes.

After a while, he rolled up his sleeves scoldingly.

……

Dead Trillion Township.

Among the hills one after another, there are terrifying tentacles.

Even those unscrupulous robbers, when they encounter these tentacles, will silently choose to bypass.

Dotted between the barracks.

A number of sentry posts have been set up on duty.

A robber with a meaty face yawned and left his post.

Take advantage of the absence of the patrol chief.

He sneaked into the woods to the left of the barracks.

He quickly pulled a crudely made cigarette from his belt, took it in his mouth, and skillfully lit the end with a flint.

Call.

A puff of smoke rings blows out.

The whole body is a lot more comfortable.

There was a rustling sound in the woods behind him.

He looked back and saw that it was a member of the "Raptors" uniform.

"Good brother, excuse the cigarette."

The man had a smile on his face.

"Roll ......"

The impatient reprimand had not yet been shouted.

Ascension pain came from under his crotch!

A piece of burlap deftly gagged his mouth.

His eyeballs were instantly bloodshot—

The branches outside the bushes trembled rapidly for a moment, and then lost their movement.

Soon.

A robber dressed in a "Raven Unit" uniform swaggered out of the bushes and into the barracks.

When passing through the sentry.

One of the guards glanced at him and stopped looking.

Roger breathed a sigh of relief.

The pace of progress has been accelerated.

……

After entering the Land of Dead Omen.

Roger found an opportunity to leave the mining cart.

In terms of time.

It's been more than a day since he single-handedly took out the stronghold of Capone Manor.

In a situation where you are unsure of the efficiency of the Red Sleeve Brotherhood's intelligence transmission, it may be risky to continue to mess around.

And according to his observations.

The garrison of Dead Zhaoxiang is typically tight on the outside and loose on the inside.

There are many barracks between the hills.

There were about three or four hundred robbers coming and going, and it was not difficult to fish in troubled waters.

He is now targeting the second leader of the Red Sleeve Brotherhood.

That is, the boss of the "Raven Group".

A spellcaster named Capella.

After interrogating several lone robbers, Roger confirms two pieces of important information.

Article 1.

The Dead Omen Township Headquarters is currently unaware of what is happening at Capone Manor.

This meant that Roger's letter of recommendation and the identity of the female assassin "Vicky" could still be used.

Article 2.

The Brotherhood of Red Sleeves is at war with the Grey Dwarves.

It is said that it has been fighting for months.

The battle line was pulled from the dungeons in the eastern part of the Great Wetlands to the surface in the northwestern part of the Hall countryside.

A week ago.

The Grey Dwarf's attack suddenly became ferocious.

The boss of the Brotherhood had to go to the front to oversee the war.

So at present, the person who is talking about the Dead Trillion Township is the second leader, Capella.

In other words.

As long as Capella is killed, Death Omen will fall into a situation where the dragons are leaderless!

It was the scene that Roger was most happy to see.

……

Evening.

Raven group barracks area.

In the northernmost barracks.

A middle-aged man who did not smile was quickly transcribing the scroll in the light of the candlelight.

Under the quill pen, it is a shocking color of blood.

Although the smell of blood has been diluted a lot by the deliberate spraying of several spices in the barracks.

But the buckets of human blood displayed next to the desk are still silently revealing the evil deeds of this person.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Capella raised an eyebrow in displeasure.

"What's the matter?"

His expression was very cold, as if as long as the other party couldn't say why, he would punish him well.

"My lord, there is a brother who said that there is a treasure for you!"

Outside the door, the voice of the attendant was full of energy.

This shows that in his opinion, Capela will definitely like this treasure.

"Let him in."

Capela got some interest.

Soon.

A long, slippery robber walked in with a swarthy thing.

"Look, my lord!"

"I found something you put a bounty on earlier!"

The man looked excited.

"Gargoyle statues?"

Capella's eyelids jumped, and she suddenly shouted coldly:

"Stand still!"

The robber looked dazed, but he was amused, and stood still, slowly lifting the gargoyle statue above his head.

Capella quietly opened the drawer and pulled out an identification scroll from inside.

There was a snap.

The scroll is torn open.

Pale yellow arcane runes flashed.

Capella breathed a sigh of relief and showed joy:

"Bring it and I'll see it!"

The man handed the statue over without saying a word.

Capella accepted the statue with a smile on her face.

The next second.

The gargoyle's wings flickered slightly.

Capela's heart sank.

It is difficult to say in the order in which the two events of "feeling pain" and "losing consciousness" occur.

Because Roger's "knee hit" and the gargoyle's "***" fell on him almost at the same time!

The poor mage slowly went limp.

The smell of blood in the barracks was a little stronger.

……

"You killed Capella (Human Mage/Elite)"

"You have gained 36 XP"

"You have gained 44 Chivalry Points"

"You have obtained Agility Shard*9 (Quest Item)"

"Killing Order Reward Acquisition ......"

"You've gained Capella's specialty, Rapid Spellcasting; If the specialty is found to be invalid, is it converted into a valid specialty?"

……

Roger didn't hesitate to choose "yes".

……

"You've gained a new specialization - Elemental Passivation"

"Detected the existence of a proximity specialty (Spell Eater's Blade), is it merged?"

……

"Well, can similar specialties be merged?"

Roger thought about it for a while, but still chose to be sure.

After the merger, the attributes of the Spell Eater Blade quietly changed.

……

"Spell-Eater Blade (3-Ring Specialty): You can designate a weapon that grants the 'Spell-Eater' trait in melee combat;

Spell Eater (NEW): Each attack has a 3% chance to permanently steal and store the enemy's mana, and when the mana is full, it can launch the 'Demon Crit' (the magic crit has high damage to the weapon itself)

Each attack will dull the elements in the target's area, and the more time passes, the more severe the passivation becomes, and the maximum passivation of the elements in the same area is 33%."

……

The improvement is still quite noticeable.

Increasing the blue draw effect to 3% is already a big improvement.

And the effect of "elemental passivation" is even more eye-catching.

This thing can drastically reduce the mage's cast speed.

Cutting off 33% of the Elemental means that the caster needs to increase the cast power by 50% in order to gather the Element.

It's a pity.

The Spelldevouring Blade doesn't match Roger's current fighting style.

He doesn't seem to be very suitable for protracted battles.

In terms of Roger's current mastery of combat.

In other words, the martial artist system can barely match the effect of the Devouring Blade.

"If you can withstand the negative effects of the Gauntlet, this weapon is a great vehicle for the Spell Devourer."

Roger thought with some regret.

……

The easy second kill of Capela is certainly the result of mental arithmetic.

But the presence of gargoyles also contributes to it.

Actually, just when Capela took out the identification scroll.

Roger was almost ready to level up.

Who knew that the gargoyle actually withstood the effect of the identification technique.

It is estimated that the result that Capella saw was a "gargoyle statue (forbidden object) (unsealed)" or something.

This made Roger look at the gargoyle differently.

After repeated reviews with the Hope Qi Technique.

He saw the hidden attributes of this guy.

That's the third trait of a gargoyle!

……

"Trait 3: Good at learning"

"Good at learning: Elite gargoyles have a strong ability to learn, especially good at imitation; You can also gain experience in battle and develop new skills."

"Mastered Skills: Camouflage, Beast-like Tactics"

……

"The camouflage point is a bit high, and I actually passed the identification."

"But...... What the hell is good at imitation? ”

Roger's expression was a little complicated.

Seeing these data, there is always a taste of pointing the finger at him for gargoyle love.

See the last line though.

Roger couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It is listed by the system as a "beast-like warfare".

This shows that the other party has another teacher.

Not Roger's pot.

……

After killing Capela, most of the advanced missions are complete.

As is customary, Roger conducted a careful search of the barracks.

Anyway, no one dared to come in for a while.

In Capella, the most Roger found was a blood-colored scroll.

It is rare that the Qi Hope Technique cannot be identified.

Probably not a serious thing.

Roger chose to take it all.

The second is money.

Roger found about 1 gold disc worth of money in the barracks.

Followed by.

On Capella's bookcase, he found an identical gargoyle statue.

The Qi Lookout technique shows that it has not been unsealed.

It seems that Capella is still quite careful.

"Huh? What is it? ”

Roger curiously grabbed a blue stone that lay next to the statue.

……

"Frost Heart (Construct Core)"

"Description: Improves the quality of the Constructed/Magical Beast"

……

Roger glanced at it.

The gargoyle lay to the side playfully, his eyes full of longing.

Roger silently threw the gem over.

The latter instinctively swallowed the "Frost Heart" into his stomach.

A few seconds later.

It fluttered its wings and flew over.

With a tongue stretched out of his mouth, he spit out the gem!

Roger smiled.

Touched the gargoyle's bare head with satisfaction.

"Eat."

He urged, "In a hurry." ”

The gargoyle swallowed the heart of Frost with confidence.

An icy aura rose from it.

It didn't take long for it to return to normal.

……

"Your Servant: Elite Gargoyle has been improved."

……

"Frost Gargoyle LV35 Magic Beast/Elite"

……
