After leaving Fort Amor, the carriage turned west in the direction of Snowman, a large road that would run parallel to the White River for a long distance until it reached the "White River Overlook".

"At our current pace, we won't be able to get back to Snowman until after dark." In the campsite by the river, Arthur was looking at the map in his hand.

"No way, only Ella herself is intact now," replied Farkas, nibbling on a leg of roast lamb, "that horse is useless, and the 'Empress Alversica' is tired of pulling the six of us by herself." ”

"Hmm......," Arthur replied casually, then turned to look at a large pot of beef stewed on the campfire, and a large bag full of food by the campfire.

The bread, cheese and vegetables had been purchased earlier from a passing mill, and all the food that the miller had intended to hire to transport to the city was going to be sold, and the other party was very happy to be a little cheaper.

However, the members of the comrade-in-arms group wanted him to have more goods than discounts, after all, due to the fierce battle in the transformed state and the injury, his appetite became very large, and he was only half-full in Iwasteda before, Arthur took out a piece of beef from the pot and ate it in a few bites: "Well, eight is ripe." ”

"If it weren't for Ella's forbiddenness to us to 'eat like wild beasts,' this thing would have been eaten when it was ripe." Cisco, who was nibbling on bread, moved his nose closer to the cooking pot.

"Hehe, my transformation is different from yours, so I haven't tried what it's like to be hungry and want to swallow a cow," Ella was nibbling on an apple as she flipped through the spellbook given by the captain of the guard at Fort Amor earlier, "but now that you are in human form, you have to eat like a human." ”

"Well, Ella, how is magic learned? Can ordinary people understand that book? Arthur snatched up a few more pieces of beef, no longer participating in the almost fought, walked over to Ella and sat down, and pointed to the book in her hand.

"Hmm...... I remember you said you were a hunter like me, so you could understand at least half of it. Ella turned the page to Arthur, "Look, isn't it beautiful?" ”

The unfolded page depicts a very fine bow, with distinctly elven-style lines and decorations, and is accompanied by a detailed description of its size and performance in jargon that only archers can understand, and if these descriptions are not exaggerated, this bow is arguably the best Arthur has ever seen.

"This is a production drawing?" Arthur asked.

Drawings...... You can say that, but only if we understand the previous part. Ella flipped a few pages forward, revealing another set of patterns, or rather, images of the same thing from different angles.

It looked like two tightly snapped gears, one large and one small, the larger one about four times larger than the smaller one, and there were also detailed descriptions of the gears next to the patterns at different angles, and although some of the unfamiliar terms were unfamiliar, Arthur could still see that they were only the size of a normal person's fist.

"This is the 'magic model'," before Arthur could ask, Ella preemptively explained, "Sketch the image of the pair of gears with your own mana and release it, and you will summon that bow in your hand." ”

"From where?" Arthur frowned, according to the internal information of the comrades-in-arms, the proportion of those evil mages who specialized in summoning was very large.

"From the world itself," Ella gave him a blank look, "the spells that summon weapons are completely different from those that summon the undead and otherworldly creatures, but they are very similar to those simple and crude destruction magic, and you only need to build a spell model to achieve the effect." ”

"Hmm." Arthur looked closely at the pair of gears and felt that the way the magic was used seemed familiar, except that the model was engraved on the world base to inspire it when needed...... What is the foundation of the world?

Buzz - In the night sky of Arthur's mind, the Summoning Gate symbol is formed, and the constellation representing the "summoning" directly lights up two stars, and the "bow and arrow" constellation that originally lit up two stars is not to be outdone and lights up a new one.

"I think I should try to build this model - Arthur?" Ella was about to show Arthur the other pages, when she turned her head to see that he had constructed a pair of delicate and rotating gears in his palm, and then shattered them, and the purple light that spilled from the broken gears stretched up and down with Arthur's fist in the center, and finally formed a delicate longbow that emitted a lilac glow exactly like the one depicted in the book.

Arthur tried to draw his bow, and an equally delicate arrow appeared directly on the bowstring, and when he let go, the arrow disappeared again.

"Hmm...... I didn't expect it to be successful once. Arthur shrugged at the somewhat sluggish Ella and the members of the Brother-in-Arms who had come together to see the beef.

"That's normal, he's a head dragon after all." Wells touched Ella with the shield he was carrying behind his back.

"This spell - it's not difficult at all!" Ella glared back at Wells, and gathered the gears directly in her hand, which turned into a bow in the next moment, but her slight gasps and fine sweat on her forehead proved that it was not easy.

"Yes, yes, I will save money on bows and arrows in the future." Farkas nodded as he fished up the beef and ate it, completely unaware of how important it was.

"In any case, this is also an increase in our combat power," Cisco Yue wiped his hands, picked up a steel shield from the side and raised it: "Come on, let me try the power of this 'summoning bow'." ”

"No, we don't know what the special nature of its attack is, if the shield can't stop it, it's going to be troublesome." Arthur shook his head and looked at Ella.

"Hmm...... Just choose those rocks as the target, and you can also try the range. Ella, who had returned to normal, looked around for a moment, then raised her hand to point to a few rocks on the other side of the White River.

"I'll pick second from left." "Then I'll pick the right one." Ella and Arthur pitched their bows and arrows together, oh, no arrows.

Laugh at! Laugh at! Two arrows with lilac trails flew straight at their target, not despawning as they had left the bow as before.

Bite! Poof! Ella's arrow hit the second stone on the left side of the river beach and was catapulted into the air and disappeared, while Arthur's arrow made a strange noise, and half of the arrow sank into the stone and did not disappear.

"Gah!" Everyone was wondering, but the "stone" suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the river with the arrow on its body, but it was rushed far downstream by the turbulent white river halfway.

"Oh, I like 'mirelurks' disguised as stones." Wilcas shook his head and looked at Cisco Yue: "If you can easily penetrate the carapace of that thing, your shield really can't." ”

"Very good, if you encounter any enemies with thick armor in the future, I will leave it to you and Ella." Cisco Moon dropped his shield and walked over and patted Arthur on the shoulder.

Poof, the bow and arrow in Ella's hand seemed to disappear directly because of the exhaustion of strength, Arthur looked at the summoning bow in his hand that still showed no signs of disappearing, and secretly disbanded it: "Of course it's no problem, but its duration is a little short." ”

"If we can't defeat the other party within the duration of this bow, we might as well retreat." Cisco Moon snorted.

If you really meet the vampire lord that night again, you really have to run, although you have obtained a way to control yourself from Graybeard, but the injuries you suffered in the previous battle are not light.

——14:00——

For the rest of the journey, Ella practiced the spell of summoning a bow, and occasionally shot at certain targets on the side of the road, killing several mirelurks, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Arthur, on the other hand, was thinking about being able to summon other kinds of weapons from time to time, but unfortunately, no matter how familiar he was with the performance and size of the Sky Forge two-handed sword in his hand, he couldn't summon a replica of it by summoning a bow, which proved that summoning different things requires different spell models, and it seems that he will have to consider buying some magic books from the court mage Fa Renjia after he returns.

"Oh no! The robbers of Waltham Tower have gone crazy! "A box-type four-horse carriage hastened back from the front, the carriage seemed to be the car of a rich man, and he had tried to show off his wealth when he had overtaken the carriage of his comrades, but no one had taken care of it, and the arrows stuck in its back looked ridiculous.

"The toll collectors? Have you finally decided to officially become a bandit? Farkas asked, confused, but did not stop the carriage.

Waltham Tower is a double-structure tower across the White River, one of the towers and the nearby mountain wall are tightly sandwiched by the main road, and once they find a lone passerby who does not seem to be strong enough, they will send people to block the road and collect fees, ranging from 50 to 200 yuan, and those who are not strong are usually obedient to pay, but if these robbers look away, the passerby is very good at fighting, and the roadblocker will immediately flee into the tower and escape from the other side through the cross-river passage.

Since they were not very harmful, and they were at the junction of the Snowman and Rift Territory, both sides were not willing to go to the trouble of exterminating this group of robbers, so they continued to collect their tolls - until now.

"I think I know the escape route of the fish that slipped through the net at the Triva Watchtower, and he really plans to go to Xueman." Cisco Yue frowned as he looked at the bandits who had barricades piled up on the path they had to pass, armed with various weapons, and with the dim yellow glow of vampires in their eyes.

"Although it wasn't the Tiger Divergence they designed, there are no powerful warriors at all at this moment, and that guy must have seen this." Wilcas drew his two-handed sword and stood up in the carriage, firing the flying arrows.

"We don't have time to spend here with them!" Ella summoned the bow with much skill, "Arthur—"

"Understood!" Arthur quickly drew his bow, and since he didn't need to shoot arrows, he and Ella sent a rain of arrows at the vampire bandits, even if there were only two of them.

"Fakas! Don't feel sorry for your horse! Together, Cisco and Wells held their shields to fend off attacks from both sides, protecting the carriage from the destroyed barricades: "We need to rush back to the snow as fast as we can!" ”

"That's not my horse!" Farkas roared as if to convince himself, and flicked his whip hard at the two horses in front of him.
