Chapter 192: The Hot Dimensional Stone

Dimensionstone Fragments (Rare Material): These gray-black irregular crystals contain an abundance of chaotic energy that only a handful of legal classes can extract, provided you are not tormented by these energies to the point of madness or death.

Due to the evil and disordered nature of the Chaos Energy in the Dimensionstone Shards, the lives that carry them are affected by the following:

1. Pain, which forcibly reduces the maximum HP by 1 point every 1 hour (expires when Spell Resistance reaches 2)

2. Madness, forcibly reduce the upper limit of mana by 1 point every 2 hours, and increase the cast failure rate by 30% (invalidated when spell resistance reaches 4 and constitution reaches 10)

3. Mutation, increase one mutation point every 3 hours, every 5 mutation points accumulated, you will have a 10% chance to randomly grow an extra organ (uncontrollable), every 10 mutation points accumulated, the mutation chance is doubled (invalidated when spell resistance reaches 10 and constitution reaches 15)

(Note that due to all the effects of the Dimension Stone Fragments, it is not possible to use regular magic purification, and since the Dimension Stone Fragments are magic materials that are prohibited by the Order faction, you cannot trade them in any public place in the Order faction, otherwise there may be a series of consequences)

I went, and after reading the attribute description, Levi felt a little painful, it was really a hot potato, and it was not clear what effect this thing would have when it was used as a magic material, but the negative effects of that series were really a headache.

Even if he has gained a lot along the way, the current total of all kinds of equipment on his body only has 5 spell resistance, which is enough to satisfy him before, because these 5 resistance points are all attribute resistance, no matter what magic hits his body, it will be directly offset by 5 damage, and the duration of negative magic on him will be reduced accordingly, which has been favorably verified when he faces law units such as necromancers.

But now, it seems that it is only barely immune to the madness effect, but there is no way to mutate the third effect.

Conservatively, he'd better dispose of the dimensional stone fragments within 15 hours, or he'd risk of having an extra organ.

Although there is only a 10% chance of the first mutation, he doesn't dare to bet on the 90% chance, in this kind of thing, even if there is only a 1% chance of danger, he definitely doesn't dare to try, who knows if the organ mentioned above is a small organ like a finger, or an extra thigh or something?

If it's the latter, then Levi may have only one way to commit suicide, as the chosen hero of the order camp, he doesn't think that he can command his subordinates well when he has three legs, this is not about personal feelings, but some matter of principle.

However, Levi can also slightly understand why Cui Sili and the others would mutate into that appearance before, and thanks to their strong physique, if it was those ordinary villagers in Oak Village or something, even if it was just simple contact, they would be hung up directly within half a day, and it was not for nothing that the order camp explicitly forbade the use of them.

But at the same time, Levi also noticed that the life that carried them would be affected, so would the undead be affected much less, or would they not be affected at all?

Levi felt that this was a very big possibility, after all, people who knew about the Dimension Stone before, including Thanato, Mage Ophini, etc., had said that this thing was the favorite of death mages and undead creatures.

"Levi, thank you for your help this time, I'm really sorry, I have nothing to repay you, I can only wait for me to return to the midsummer river beach, and explain to you your efforts Levi's." The wood elf druid Elena walked over with a staff, and the bodies of Trisley and the mutated wood elves also disappeared, and it looked like they should have been put into the space bag by the other party.

Despite something in his heart, Levi smiled on the surface and responded to the other party: "This is what we should do, there is no need for a reason to fight evil, and I also regret what happened to Cui Sili, she should have had a better choice." ”

Although Levi is also very annoyed by Trisley, but the other party has now become a dead person, so it is nothing to say two kind words, just to brush up some friendship on the druid Elena.

Sure enough, after listening to Levi's words, Druid Elena's face also changed a little better, she nodded silently, and then took out some large and small oval seeds, stretched out her hand and handed them to Levi: "These are the seeds of some plants, I found them on Cui Sili, I purified the evil power above, now I will leave it to you to use." ”

Levi took it and found that these might be the seeds that Trisley had promised to him before, but the name had changed slightly, not the Flesh Eater Vine and the Ragnar Man-Eating Flower, but instead of the Guardian Demon Vine and the Guardian Man-Eating Flower, but after growing up, it was still a third-order right.

It's just a little smaller, and the total is only 8 seeds, and Trisley promised to give him 25 if he kills the druid Elena in front of him.

Levi couldn't help but glance around the ground a few times, trying to see if he had been scattered to the ground because of the previous battle.

Druid Elena didn't know what Levi was doing at first, but soon she also remembered Trisley's previous words, after all, to be able to become a druid, her head is not stupid, but because she is relatively young and inexperienced, she seems a little stupid.

"Ah, Levi, I've only found these 8 in total, and I think Cui Sili may have been deliberately lying to you before." Druid Elena hurriedly said that she didn't want the other party to misunderstand that she was secretly embezzling.

Levi thought about it, too, looking at the appearance of the druid Elena, she should not have learned the skill of corruption, so it seems that choosing to kill Trisley is really the best choice, she even dares to falsely report the task reward, and after the task is completed, she may turn her face with herself at some point.

"Of course, I know you won't." Levi smiled and agreed, "Then what are your plans for the next step?" After the previous battle, my subordinates were all wounded, and now I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with those centaurs, I need to return to Blackstone Fort to regroup, do you want to visit together? ”

Although Trisley is dead, Levi is surprised to find that the mission she gave her is still there, and it does not show failure. Or is it just a task that she issued on her behalf, and this task is actually a task on the Midsummer River Beach?

But in any case, Levi really doesn't plan to continue attacking the centaurs now, he wants to dispose of those hot dimensional stone fragments first, and then see if he can kill these stupid centaurs who are almost half dead in their companions, but they haven't shown anything until now.

Listening to Levi's invitation, Druid Elena was obviously a little moved, but she finally shook her head and refused: "No, Levi, I'm still here waiting for the support of other patrols, and the relationship between our wood elves and dwarves is actually a bit bad." ”

"Oh, well, do you want us to stay with you here, after all, this is not only so close to the centaurs, but also in the wild, and danger can happen at any time."

Druid Elena rejected her offer, and Levi was not surprised, for he could already tell from the attitudes of Ironwood and the Wood Elves that there must be a hatred between the elves and the dwarves.

Although the somewhat cute druid Elena in front of her was fighting side by side with herself and others before, she could be regarded as a temporary comrade-in-arms, and she did not show a lofty posture, and her attitude could be said to be hundreds of times better than that of Cui Sili and the others before, but the dwarves led by Tiemu still stared at them with wide eyes and stared at them tightly, seeing that the druid Elena was very uncomfortable, twisting her body from time to time, trying to avoid the other party's sight, but in vain.

"No, Levi," Druid Elena shook her head again in refusal, "We're wood elves, so we're best suited to sneak in the forest, and I'm still a druid, so it's okay to protect ourselves, thank you for your kindness." ”

"Okay, then we'll see you again."

Levi looked very regretful.

He wasn't all pretending, because he was actually hopeful that if the other party could have more contact with him, he might be able to fool the other party into his command, and at this stage, a druid who could restore life with magic was too precious.

And the little girl's strength is not as strong as the wandering wizard Camelot or the Orfini mage, and the difficulty of recruiting is definitely there, but if you have more contact, Levi thinks it is still possible, but the other party refuses his proposal.

Druid Elena nodded earnestly, and then the two sides said goodbye, and she watched Levi lead the team away, and used her magic to quickly hide the surviving few of her subordinates in the forest.

As he made his way to the Wandering Wizard Camelot's Wizard's Hut, Levi counted the harvest and found that it was almost all weapons, except for the seeds.

Those centaurs didn't have any defensive equipment on them, and they were barely wrapped in animal skins as clothes, and in addition, the defense relied on their own thick skin, and Cui Sili and their wood elves were already dressed very coolly, and after the mutation, they directly broke the equipment because of the increase in size, so naturally they would not leave any loot for Levi.

The only thing that can be seen is probably the blue spear left by Cui Sili, although the attributes are not particularly good, the attack power is a little worse than the spear that Levi is using now, but the spear called the emerald resistant, but it has added an additional passive skill called natural healing, which can speed up the recovery of life in the forest, which is not bad, and was directly thrown by Levi to Huames, which can be regarded as slightly increasing the endurance of the other party, and it looks very good, doesn't it?

Bloom played with the Emerald Resistant, and Levi called Ironwood over to find out why the other party was so hostile to the Wood Elves in the first place.

"Because thousands of years ago, because of their shameless sneak attack, there was a war between us and the elves that lasted for a long time, and we called it the War of Revenge. That war took a huge toll on us dwarves, and even now we have not been able to fully restore our former glory. Although they called themselves High Elves at the time, not some Wood Elves, these Wood Elves were the survivors of the High Elves left in the Old World. ”

"Of course, the proud, pointy-eared ones weren't much better, and the war ended with the head of their megalomaniacal king being cut off by us."

Saying this, Temu raised his head high, looking very proud, Levi nodded to show that he understood, and at the same time had a further understanding of the dwarves' grudges, the wars that took place thousands of years ago, it is not uncommon for you to remember them until now, because all civilized races basically have the habit of recording history, and they can always understand what happened before.

It's amazing that you still have such a hatred for the elves, and seem to want to go to war again to get revenge at any moment.

If this is on humans, who cares about this? Revenge for hatred thousands of years ago? That's dozens or hundreds of generations gone, isn't it good to take a break?

Probably only dwarves with a lifespan of thousands of years will remember it so clearly, because this is probably a matter for their grandfather or grandfather's generation, if they are strong enough and live long enough, maybe there are still survivors of the original war.

However, Levi was still a little curious about another place: "Then, Ironwood, didn't you find Sienna and Kelly... "They're all half-elves, and the most obvious feature of half-elves is their very obvious pointed ears.

Hearing this, the dwarf waved his hand, "Ah, of course I know who they are, but it must be their parents or grandparents, forced by those hateful pointed ears, their birth was not of their own volition, we dwarves can still tell the difference." ”

"Ha, well, I'm too worried, and when I get back to Blackstone Castle, I'll treat you to two more drinks."

"Haha, then I remember!"

Sent away Temu, but Levi was secretly thinking, forced by pointed ears? I'm afraid not necessarily.,After all, judging from the appearance of those wood elves.,I'm afraid the elves are really a high-value race of the whole race.,And humans have always been a race that looks at faces.,Who forces who is not necessarily...

But forget it, it's useless to delve into this, although he doesn't know how the dwarves can tell the difference between elves and half-elves at a glance, but he only knows that the dwarves and half-elves in his team will not have conflicts because of this, and that is enough.

After taking out a dozen waves of wandering beastmen in a row, Levi found Camelot again and showed them the Dimension Stone Fragments.

"Wow, Levi, you've got some good stuff."

Although his eyes were full of heat, and it was obvious that he was very interested in these dimensional stone fragments, Camelot did not rush up immediately, but took out a pair of magic gloves with a faint glimmer from the space bag on his waist, and then took them.

Well, judging from the opponent's action, Levi was able to determine that the opponent's strength should not have reached the point of being completely immune to the influence of the dimensional stone, but after he put on the gloves, he seemed to be fearless, and the gloves either had quite good magic resistance, or they were specially used by him to deal with the dimensional stones.

After playing with it for a while, Camelot looked up at Levi: "Although the energy contained in it is not too much, but it is quite pure, Levi, your harvest looks pretty good, but those harpies should not be able to collect dimensional stones of this quality, right?" ”

Levi smiled and shook his head: "Camelot, you guessed wrong this time, it's not the Harpy, it's the Centaur." Then Levi gave a rough description of his previous experience.

After listening to Levi's story, Camelot was also a little surprised: "A wood elf that can trigger the energy of the dimensional stone? Although I know that in the course of a long battle, there are always Wood Elves who have fallen into evil because of their injuries, but from what you described, it is quite rare for those Wood Elves to take the initiative to touch these dangerous things. ”

Although they are still inevitably affected by the various influences of dimensional stones, there is almost no difference between them and other races, but they are not afraid of this, and even in order to strengthen their attack power, they often inlay dimensional stones into various weapons.

This is not a good thing for those races that are hostile to them, because the characteristics of the dimensional stone are too evil, the injured person is difficult to heal, and if you are injured multiple times in a short period of time, it may cause a series of sequelae, and the dimensional stone can be much more deadly than ordinary poisons.

As the worst enemies of the beastmen, the Wood Elves had a lot of victims, so it was hard for Camelot to imagine that any Wood Elf would take the initiative to touch this thing.

"If it's not for the temptation of other people, it's probably for the pursuit of power, and that's the only reason I can come up with."

Although looking at Cui Sili's crazy appearance, maybe there is something hidden behind it, but Levi is not interested in inquiring now, because he has too little information, so don't waste your time.

"Strength? Oh, that's right. Camelot smiled and shook her head, skipping the topic, "Then Levi, what do you want this time for?" ”

Levi didn't speak, but looked at the row of armored ogres standing behind the other party, Camelot immediately understood what Levi meant, but he directly shook his head and refused: "No, Levi, these dimensional stone fragments are not worth it, and the energy they contain is not abundant." And besides me, you'll have a hard time finding someone who needs them in a short period of time. ”

"Either the mages of the Nunn Death Academy, or you'll have to try your luck at the trading port of Fort Marien, the dwarves of Blackstone Fort won't need them. After all, the dwarves are born with magic resistance, so they can't practice any magic, and they don't need the fragments of the dimensional stone. ”

Although there are all kinds of bad influences, after all, the fragments of the dimensional stone contain powerful energy, but except for the mages, no matter how bold and adventurous the others are, it is useless to hold them, they can't use the energy contained in them, at most they can learn from the beastmen, and polish them into weapons to use.

Levi knew that the other party was right, he had already quietly asked Tiemu on the way, as for going to Nunn or Marion Castle, not to mention how many powerful monsters there would be on the road, whether he could get there safely, even if he could, he didn't know how much time it would take, and in another 10 hours, he would have to face the first mutation!

"Alright, Camelot, you're right, then leave it to me for spells, I want your Curse of Madness and Flame Drink."

Camelot hesitated, this slightly exceeded the value of these dimensional stone fragments, he was a little lost, but Levi's, who saw what he meant, added in time: "Plus 15 units of meat, you are about to leave here, you must also need food on the way, right?" ”

Seeing that the other party looked like he was stunned, and at the same time, more than a dozen burning glances appeared on his back, Camelot smiled: "Okay, Levi, you win, deal." ”
