Lyudmila turned and looked at Roland. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info tears flashed in the girl's eyes, and her expression had already recovered her perseverance: "Of course I choose to return a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood, when will we do it?" ”

"That's what I want to ask." The Witch in Red walked over, her face could not hide her anxiety, "Nero has already started a blood sacrifice, and I will never tolerate the 'Warlock's Heart' falling into his hands, so my dear Mr. Knight, can you first put down the heavy responsibility of soothing the lady's heart, fulfill the original promise, accompany me into the hall, and get back the thing that belongs to me." ”

Her words were too harsh, and Lyudmila turned blue and red when she heard this, and she bit her lip to restrain her anger, and looked at Nikita with a wary gaze, speculating that the other party suddenly became speechless. In addition to impatience, how much of it is due to some indescribable jealousy?

Roland shook his head: "Miss Mage, have you ever considered a question, why did Lorenzo try in every possible way to coax you into the sacrificial hall?" ”

Nikita was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically, "I don't know, can you tell me why?" ”

Roland shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "It's a pity, I don't know what he has in mind, but I'm sure that guy is not at ease, and most of what he expects you to do is not good for you, so you insist on entering the sacrificial hall, isn't it a wish for Lorenzo?" ”

Nikita frowned and looked displeased: "Think about it yourself, is this logic reasonable?" ”

Roland opened his mouth, his face a little hot. Indeed, as Nikita questioned, the logic of his thinking was a "conspiracy theory" - because Lorenzo was a bad person, he must have had bad intentions in inviting Nikita into the hall to watch the ceremony.

This way of reasoning is too empirical and there is no conclusive evidence, and it is okay to think like this, but it is a bit of a strong argument to try to convince others. What's more, Nikita is a very willful and self-centered young mage, how can she be persuaded by him in a few words?

"What the hell do you want?" The female mage grew impatient.

"I want you to stay outside the door and do what happens, if all goes well, my companions and I will deal with Nero and Agatha, disrupt the blood sacrifice ritual, and if the situation is unfavorable, I will send a signal for you to come in and help." Roland spoke out about his plan.

It seemed to him that it was the safest, but Nikita couldn't accept it at all.

"No! I can't stay out of this critical situation, I must be the first to enter the sacrificial hall and obtain the 'Warlock's Heart' with my own hands! ”

The mage's self-esteem is probably very sensitive, and Roland's fierce reaction to Nikita is not surprising. Unable to convince her to accept the safest plan, Roland had to settle for the next best thing, asking her to take a break and summon spell slots to prepare for the decisive battle.

"The spell I prepared today hasn't been used up yet, it's enough for a battle, why waste time, what if Nero runs away with the 'Warlock's Heart'?" Nikita clenched her fists in frustration.

Roland had to patiently comfort her: "Nero is going to leave a long time ago, Lorenzo died outside he can't bear to show up, he must be unable to leave the sacrificial hall for some reason, now we have to compete who is more patient, impulsive people will definitely not end well." ”

Nikita heard that his words became more and more severe, and her heart couldn't help but tremble, so she had to reluctantly put away the eldest lady's temper, biting her lip and reluctantly nodding her head.

By this time, Veronica and Bloom had already searched for Lorenzo's relics and handed them over to Roland for identification.

This guy is worthy of Nero's right-hand man, and he has a lot of good things on him, including a "shapeshifting cloak", a pair of +2 shadow wrapped silk leather armor, a pair of +4 agility bracers, +1 immobilized ninja "curse" and +2 defense dagger.

In addition to the above-mentioned equipment, there are also three Upanishads, namely "Combat Reflex", "Trance Strike", and "Mastery of Dual-Weapon Combat", which can be described as very rewarding.

Roland first picked up the magic cloak and put it on, which could instantly "change shapes" 4 times a day, swapping places with a creature no more than 130 feet away from him.

Lorenzo had used this cloak many times in the battle just now, and he had made a deep impression on everyone. In fact, Lorenzo's use of the cloak was very risky, such as encountering an opponent like Roland who was exempt from the odd height.

But this is understandable, after all, Lorenzo was alone at the time and had no choice.

In Roland's opinion, a more reliable use of the cloak is to swap places with a companion - since the companion can choose to forgo the exemption test and voluntarily accept the transformation change, so there is no problem of casting a failed spell. At the critical moment, you can pull a mage friend with weak defense out of the monster pile and replace it with a strong defense "iron can" to attract firepower.

According to the above line of thinking, the higher the defense of the cloak wearer, the better, and Roland's defense is the best in the team, and this cloak is of course his.

Lorenzo's magic leather armor is also superb. The armor material is not ordinary animal leather, but a very rare material "shadow winding silk".

Known as "the silk thread woven from the shadow itself", there is no trace of him in the surface world, and only the drow mages in the dark region know how to refine this mysterious black yarn, and the price can be imagined. Lorenzo's ability to possess a +2 Shadow Silk Leather Armor may have something to do with his drow origins.

Shadowweaver also has a special magical power: if it is damaged, it will be repaired automatically by placing it in the shadows.

It is because of this characteristic that Shadow Winding is considered an excellent material for making armor.

Roland's identification results show that the Shadow Silk Leather Armor lives up to its reputation, in addition to providing the wearer with +4 armor defense, because it weighs only 1/4 of ordinary leather armor, it is worn like a light underwear on the body, the maximum agility limit is +8 high, there is no drag on stealth, concealment and other thief skills, not to mention that it will provide an additional +2 modifier, and the armor-piercing arcane will not reduce the failure rate.

In addition, this Shadow Wrap Silk Armor retains the characteristics of the material itself, and can automatically repair damage in the shadows.

Considering the special properties of the Shadow Wrap Silk Armor, Roland assigned it to Veronica in place of the normal leather armor on her body.

In addition to the cloak and leather armor, Veronica also took off a magic bracer from Lorenzo, which increases agility by 4 when equipped.

Increasing agility is equivalent to increasing reaction speed and evasion ability, which in turn increases defense. Roland and Bloom have high enough defense and relatively low agility requirements, while Lyudmila, Veronica, and Nikita, who are unable to equip heavy armor, are eager to improve this attribute.

Considering that Veronica is in charge of pathfinding and searching for traps in the team, and has always been active at the forefront of mines, Roland has the highest risk factor, so everyone has no problem assigning this bracer to her.

The +2 Defense Dagger is an off-hand weapon that can be used as a small shield when necessary.

The +1 Immobilizer is known as the "Curse Binding Blade" because it can release a green beam of light when it hits an enemy, and if the opponent fails the DC17 Will Test, they will be paralyzed and unable to move for the next six seconds.

The ninja knife is a weapon that resembles a rapille, and its own damage is mediocre but its heavy attack range is extremely high (18~20)! If you double the range of your hit with the "Sharp Edge" or "Strike Mastery" specialty, you will have an average of three or four slashes that will inflict a heavy hit, and the chance of adding "Paralysis" is quite high.

Veronica is the only one on Roland's team who is good at using the Ninja Knife, and she is the one who is the Curse Binding Knife.

+2 Defense: The Dagger is an off-hand weapon that usually needs to be paired with the "Dual Wielding Weapon" specialty. Lyudmila and Veronica are both second-hand swordsmen, Lyudmila uses a bow and arrow as her main weapon, and a flashing scimitar to spare, so this dagger also ended up in the hands of a female ninja, which happened to be used in conjunction with the curse binding knife for one attack and one defense.

Lorenzo drops three Upanishads. The explosion rate is so high, Roland can only think that his character is too bad, and evil will be rewarded.

The most special of the three Upanishads is the "Trance Strike", which is a special ability for thieves, assassins, ninjas and other professions, which must be combined with the "Sneak Attack" technique, causing damage to the enemy while attaching a "trance" state, making it slow to react and slow to move, and can only return to normal after receiving treatment, Veronica suffered from this trick in the battle just now.

Roland and Veronica both have sneak attack specialties, but Roland is only rough about this, he prefers frontal toughness to sneak attacks, Veronica is a master of backstabbing focused on this, and for the sake of efficiency, he gave up the "trance blow" to Veronica.

"Mastery of dual-weapon combat" is an advanced specialty of the "Second Sword Stream", Veronica and Lyudmila both meet the preconditions for cultivating this mystery, and Roland is assigned to the female ranger. This distribution is not based on the principle of efficiency, but more about fairness - it is impossible to leave all the benefits to Veronica alone.

The last Upanishads was the "Battle Reflex", a specialty that Veronica had mastered, and Lyudmila and Bloom expressed little interest, leaving Roland on his own.

After distributing the loot, the overall strength of the team has been raised to a higher level. Veronica, in particular, inherited most of the Drow Assassin's belongings: dressed in Shadow Silk Armor, wearing agile gauntlets, wearing a defensive dagger and a curse knife at her waist, the shotgun has been refreshed, and the little girl has a lively look with her head held high.

Once Nikita had her spell ready, Roland led the group through the heavy door and entered the final stop of the adventure, the sacrificial hall of Tiamat, with varying hearts.
