Chapter Ninety-Eight: Joy and Sorrow

In order to avoid retaliation from the lizardmen, after collecting the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle, Taylor led everyone out of the camp as soon as possible. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was noon, the sun was just at the top of the sky, and the originally empty camp of Gorion was once again surrounded by heavily armed lizardmen.

Standing at the front of the army, Sagre looked at the silent camp with a frown, stretched out his hand, and slowly led the group in.

It didn't take long for Sagre to stop, and the faces of all the lizardmen became solemn, as if they could squeeze out droplets at any moment.

Looking over the ruins of the walls, the center of the camp was no longer empty, hundreds of lizardfolk corpses were placed on top of large fields of firewood, and not far in front of Sagre, a torch slowly burned with orange flames.

Looking at the torches and corpses in a daze, Sagre sighed softly, stepped forward and pulled out the torches, and walked slowly forward.

Rumble!

The tongue of fire touched the dry wood and quickly turned into a raging fire, the light of the fire reflected on the scales of the lizardmen, and a faint warmth rose from them.

"High priest, those humans should not go far, we have time to catch up now." Carrotes appeared at Sagro's side, as if the wounds left by Lecius had not healed, and his face was still pale.

"It's all over." Watching the flames gradually consume the corpses of his compatriots, Sagre's voice was very low, "Let's go, go back." ”

"But..." Trying to dissuade him, he watched Sagro cross over to the rear as if he hadn't heard, and Carrotes gritted his teeth with anger on his face.

As if sensing the anger of Karotes, Saglo stopped, turned his head and said, "Carrotes, remember who you are now, you are no longer the commander, learn to endure. ”

"Yes." Viciously looking at Sagre, who was far away from him, Karotes whispered in response, like a roar.

Clear skies are always easy to put people in a good mood, and when he returned to the green forest, looking at the familiar stone houses and the humans coming and going, Ryan's delicate face couldn't help but show a faint smile.

The cry of victory and the heat spread throughout the town, surrounded by the townspeople, Sidrick, who originally wanted to leave, was very warm, and at the sound of an order, all the cavalry unloaded their heavy steel armor, and the popularity of Green Zelin became popular for a while.

The Green Grove is known throughout Sambia for its abundance of produce, with a non-stop supply of wine and food, and the whole party shows no end until the night. Citing his injuries as non-healing, Ryan declined Joseph's invitation to relax after the dinner and returned to his room alone.

Sitting at his desk, Ryan listened to the noise outside, smiled helplessly, closed the window, and took out the scroll that copied the flameburst.

The moment the scroll was unfolded, the noise in my ears suddenly became imperceptible. The exponentially improved ability to concentrate Ryan easily allowed him to concentrate his attention, and looking at his notes and spell models, it seemed that the once puzzled and obscure puzzles had a lot of clues at once.

When inspiration struck, Ryan curled the corners of his mouth and picked up the quill, and the speed of analyzing the spell model was obviously more than a point faster.

"Whew!" After drawing the final touch of the spell model, Ryan stretched, opened the curtains, and glanced at the whitening sky, with a complicated expression on his face, not knowing whether to be happy or bitter.

I didn't sleep all night, but the hard work paid off. Ryan got up and pulled out a few pieces of sulfur from his package, then walked briskly towards the door, his otherwise slightly tired face full of excitement.

Arriving in the open space outside the door, Ryan took a small piece of brimstone, and a wave of magic slowly gathered in his palm. Under Ryan's control, the magic became hotter and hotter.

The pale yellow sulfur block was quickly covered by this magic power, and the sulfur melted little by little, as if turning into a cloud, slowly immersed in the magic power. I saw that the light blue magic aura gradually turned white, and soon a faint orange-red, like a flame.

His eyes froze, and under Ryan's thoughts, the flame-like magic power immediately began to distort and disperse, and red spell nodes appeared in it.

This is the first time Ryan has personally built a spell model for the 2-ring spell, and it is inevitable that he will have some handiwork, and he has taken a lot of detours for a while. The large loss of mental power made him take a deep breath, and then continued to work on the construction of the model.

With the help of abundant magical power, thin threads appeared between the spell nodes, and a complex circle of circles gradually took shape.

The fiery circle did not have a festive feeling, but was filled with the breath of manic death. Successfully building the model, Ryan quietly relaxed, and then chanted in a low voice, directing his connection to the magic net into the circle.

Flameburst is being cast, and the spell is successful.

Rumble!

The orange-red circle suddenly erupted with a blinding flash, shrinking instantly, and then as if it couldn't withstand the force, but a breath erupted, and a wave of heat swept through Ryan's body, instantly turning into a terrifying flame storm.

The raging flames swept through Ryan's area of nearly two meters in an instant, and the scorching heat ignited the weeds around him, and even the ground cracked in an instant.

The two meters of water around him disappeared without a trace, and as a spellcaster, Ryan himself felt a little difficult to breathe, as if every breath of air was inhaling a scorching flame.

It worked!

From the very beginning to the successful cast, completing a 2-ring spell yourself feels more rewarding than passing the rewards of the Immortal Legend.

Promoted to level 5, Ryan got more than just the rewards given by the system, whether it was mental power or will, body was greatly improved.

Now that he had built and cast a fireblast, his mental power was still very full, and he had just learned the secondary phantom tentacles, Ryan walked towards the shadows of the house.

The secondary Shadow Tentacle is a very flexible spell, except for its own shadow, as long as there is a shadow around the enemy, and it does not exceed the range of mental power, the Shadow Tentacle can take effect.

Looking intently into the shadows, Ryan slowly raised his hand.

Casting a secondary shadow tentacle ...

The deep voice continued to chant obscure incantations, and a cold magic gradually gathered into Ryan's hands, only to see that the original light blue magic power was transformed into a dark black under Ryan's control.

Cast failed!

Hiss!

As if the balloon was leaking, the magic in his hand trembled violently, and disappeared like foam.

Ryan's eyes widened as he watched the black point of light quickly disappear into view, and the original joy was instantly washed away.

How so?

There was no problem with the construction of the spell model, the infusion of mana was well controlled by Ryan, and the spells and movements of the secondary phantom tentacles were generally simple, and there was no warning until the series of preparations was completed. The failure of a spell is the collapse of the model due to unknown reasons at the moment when the spell is activated at the last moment.

That is, the conditions do not match? But doesn't it count here?

With a furrowed brow, Ryan looked into the shadows in the corner, never able to come up with a reason.

While the half-elf was pondering, a figure slowly walked over.

"Ryan, why did you get up so early today?" Lanier saw Ryan standing in the doorway and quickly trotted over.

Hearing the voice, Ryan hurriedly turned his head to look, and originally wanted to respond, but his eyes happened to see the shadow behind Lanier, and he was stunned for a while.

As soon as he came to Ryan's side, Lanier saw him look down at him with an evil smile, and he suddenly shuddered and couldn't help but shiver.
