40. Unexpected circumstances

Su Yan had already confirmed his conjecture from Angra.

In this world, he can also learn skills!

The notebook left behind by Angra's teacher detailed the process of making carrion corpses and the development of soul-torturing spells. And under the influence of this notebook, after Su Yan finished flipping through it, there were two new skills in his skill column.

[Carrion Fabrication] and [Soul Torture].

The former, a common skill that is systematically classified as a race of the undead.

The latter, on the other hand, is a type of magic.

However, the level is not very high, but it is classified as second-order magic by the skill system.

In Eternity, magic is a very special system: there are twelve classes, including the Zero and Beyond tiers.

The classes are divided into the following categories: the first order of the first level, the first order of the eleventh level, the second order of the twenty-first level, the third order of the thirty-first level, the fourth order of the thirty-sixth level, the fifth order of the forty-first level, the sixth order of the forty-sixth level, the seventh order of the fifty-first level, the eighth order of the sixty-first level, the ninth order of the seventy-first level, the tenth order of the seventy-sixth level, and finally the eighty-first level of the super order, which is also the strongest representative.

However, the learning conditions of the magic rank are different from the usual way.

It's not like Skill, which is based on the player's level: the learning standard for magic is based on the level of magic.

What is a magic level?

In "Eternity", it is defined as follows: races and professions that are biased towards magic, magic, or combat methods, are converted into one, half, and one-third magic levels according to standard mana, secondary mana, and weak mana.

Magicians are standard magic classes, and the conversion of magic levels to the first level of the class is equal to the first level of magic; The combination of magic and martial arts such as magic warriors and magic archers is a secondary magic profession, and each two levels of professional level is converted into a first-level magic level; As for the Bard, which uses magic as an auxiliary means, it is a weak magic class, and every three class levels are converted to one level of magic level.

In the same way, the undead belong to the standard magical race; Races that can use magic, such as gnomes and elves, are classified as secondary magic races; Humans, orcs, and other creations are weak magical races. As for dwarves who don't know what magic is at all, I'm sorry, not only can't even convert the race level to magic level, but they are not even allowed to work in any standard magic class, and can only inherit a secondary magic class similar to Rune Warrior.

Su Yan's level is ninety-nine: it is composed of forty levels of race ranks, fifteen levels of undead kings, fifteen levels of death knights, fifteen levels of necromancers, seventh-level knights, and seventh-level mages.

However, knights are not included in the magic hierarchy, and both Death Knight and Undead King are secondary magic classes - there is no such thing as rounding, so the fifteen-level full-level secondary magic class is only seven in the final conversion of magic level.

In other words, Su Yan's magic level was actually only seventy-six, which was just enough to meet the learning standard of tenth-order magic.

As for super-level magic, he didn't have to count on it in his life.

However, Su Yan didn't rely on magic as his combat method anyway, so he didn't care too much about these all this all along.

Even with the two new skills he had learned now, he only cared more about the second-order magic of [Soul Torture Technique]. Because this means that if he really encounters the kind of hard bones who would rather keep secrets in the future, he doesn't need to scare others, but can really practice torture intelligence.

At this time, Su Yan was carrying Anna on the way back to Akara City.

This time he went to Warcraft Canyon, and he not only successfully completed the high-value bounty task that had been in the Mercenary Guild for a long time, but also solved another gold-level difficulty task that had also plagued the Mercenary Guild in Akara City for a long time: investigating the cause of the fog in Warcraft Canyon.

However, for the second task, Su Yan did not plan to go back and hand it in immediately.

He had to consult with Stuerson and the others to make sure that the task was in his favor before turning it in.

Of course, time can't be delayed for too long.

Although Warcraft Canyon is not on the road that must be passed, it is also a place that will pass through for those merchants who go south and north. And now the fog in the Warcraft Canyon has completely disappeared, so if the time drags on for too long, then after the news of the dissipation of the fog in the Warcraft Canyon spreads, even if he can take out the Ring of Gratils to prove that the disappearance of the fog is related to him, but how much the Mercenary Guild believes, there is still a question mark.

Therefore, when Su Yan returned to Akara City with Anna, the speed was naturally faster than before.

Originally, the distance between Acala City and Warcraft Canyon was about thirty to thirty-five days for a normal person to hike back and forth.

However, because Su Yan is an undead spirit, he has no concept of fatigue, so he can travel day and night.

It only took him nine days to arrive at the Monster Canyon from Acala City. After that, he stayed in the Warcraft Canyon for four days, mainly because Angra, a frail guy, was in a coma for three days and two nights, so Su Yan had to stay in the Warcraft Canyon with Anna for a few days, but he was not wasted time, he and Anna played an adventure game in the stone room dug out by Angra.

Anna, the little one, is quite happy with it.

And Su Yan also took this opportunity to give Anna a vivid lesson on human body structure.

I have to say that after the gray sand collar incident, the little guy is no longer very repulsive to corpses and blood. But at the beginning, Anna was still a little subconsciously repulsed, after all, the smell of blood, blood, corpses and internal organs, brains and other things, whether it is visual impact, smell, or mental pollution, is obviously much lower. However, after a period of mental trance, the little guy now dares to dissect himself.

For this reason, Su Yan also deliberately caught two demonic beasts that had about eighteen lifetimes of blood mold for Anna to practice.

The Warcraft skull that Anna is wearing on her head now, and the Warcraft skull that Su Yan put on, are the trophies that Anna personally handled—Su Yan just accelerated the skin and flesh on it to get out of time. As for the monster rib in Anna's hand, it was the harvest of her first expedition.

Returning to Akara City from the Monster Canyon, this time Su Yan only took six days, and he was already close to the outskirts of Acala City, and the rest of the journey could be completed in a day at most.

If you calculate it carefully, this round trip doesn't even take twenty days - you know, under normal circumstances, a thirty-five day round trip doesn't include exploring Warcraft Canyon.

In fact, the mercenaries who took this task in the Mercenary Guild before had the shortest task record time of two months, and the longest was ...... It was only five months later that someone realized that something might be wrong with the first group of departures, and only then did they send a second group of reinforcements.

The only thing Su Yan was thinking about was how to disguise the reason for the short time he had been on the mission.

So this will, after nightfall, Su Yan didn't continue to hurry, anyway, there was only one day left before Akara City at most, and it would be the same if he continued to hurry tomorrow morning. Especially since he had already entered the trade route, and there were many merchants, caravans, and mercenaries coming and going, and if he continued to rush forward, I am afraid that it would arouse some unnecessary suspicions.

After a simple dinner, Su Yan took Anna to rest in a leeward place.

In a short time, Anna was already asleep.

Following Su Yan's days, the little guy has long developed a special ability to fall asleep quickly and recover his physical strength regardless of the surrounding environment - this ability is simply a magic skill for mercenaries. However, most inexperienced newcomers will not be able to master such a wilderness survival skill at all, and they often need to go through years of training, or several hard and fierce battles before they can master this ability.

So in this regard, Anna is still very talented.

However, Anna, who was supposed to sleep until dawn, got up in the middle of the night with her eyes rubbed her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Noticing Anna's abnormal Su Yan, she couldn't help but ask.

He knew very well that Anna's biological clock was almost terrifyingly stable: she would get up at seven in the morning for breakfast, lunch at eleven thirty o'clock at noon, dinner at seven thirty o'clock in the evening, and then go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening.

Therefore, Su Yan naturally developed the habit of not needing a clock hourglass, as long as he looked at Anna's personal state, he could roughly guess the current time.

This time, when it was still late at night, Anna woke up, which made Su Yan feel that something was wrong.

"The wind is restless." Anna was clearly still a little dazed and not yet fully conscious, "There was a smell of blood in the air. ”

Su Yan raised his eyebrows, he didn't smell blood.

However, the place they were in now was in a wilderness, and with Anna's dual perception talent, which could be said to be exaggerated, under the condition that Su Yan did not expand his perception field to the maximum, he could not compare to Anna at all. Under normal circumstances, of course, Su Yan would not always expand his perception domain to the maximum extent, after all, this was a very spiritually consuming practice.

Therefore, Su Yan would not be surprised at all that Anna would smell blood at this time and also perceive the restlessness of the wind.

When he heard Anna's words, he closed his eyes slightly, and at the same time expanded his own perceptual realm.

Then, about eight hundred meters away from him, he finally discovered the source of Anna's smell of blood.

There were two groups fighting, one of which looked like a caravan.

Whoever sees this is probably thinking that this is a robber attack on a caravan - this kind of thing happens at least dozens of times a day on average in this world. But if this is really the case, Anna will not deliberately wake up from sleep.

What really caught the attention of Anna and Su Yan was the identity of the gang of robbers who attacked the caravan.
