Chapter 80: Yamaguchi

It is for this reason that various groups of adventurers have the privilege of casters not needing to keep vigil. So that they can use the quiet rest time of the night to communicate with the magic net and obtain the spell slot for the next day.

In fact, Ain was at a critical moment, and there was no need for this quiet rest. Getting one less day of spell slot replenishment is not a very fatal thing for Ain, and if necessary, Ain can use the magic energy pool to replace a day's casting, and it can still withstand the consumption.

However, if this is the case every day, then it is impossible for Ain's magic energy pool to be able to withstand it.

So now that he can get a good rest, Ain is not polite, and just arranges it like this.

"Moreover, if you talk about reconnaissance, even if you have the power of a warrior, as long as it is not hidden or spatial, most of them are not as good as me as a mage......" Ain's last sentence was a finalization of the fact that he would come to investigate tomorrow.

Indeed, Harden was speechless. He really had no way to guarantee that his detection ability could be compared to that of a mage who already possessed a high level of invisibility.

"My son, Paul, is standing guard outside your tent, my lord, and if anything happens, Paul will do his best to take you to it. Even if something is not eye-opening, try not to disturb your rest, lord. Harden saluted and exited the tent by himself. Then Paul bowed and also withdrew from the tent, but sat down in front of it. His shadow was cast on the tent, and Aine could see it at a glance.

That is, after taking a look, Aine made a few gestures, and then directly closed his eyes and fell asleep. It's not that he's relieved, but around the tent before, around the place where the whole team rests, there are magic warning spells. If you are touched, then the first person to wake up is probably Ain.

……

But Ain's sleep came to dawn.

After Al symbolically prepared the spell and walked out of the tent, he realized that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.

A faint breath of the dead.

"Lord Lord, a small group of rudimentary-level bone racks somehow managed to run around the camp, but I didn't feel that kind of spiritual connection from the soul fire of this group of bone racks, so I simply went out of the camp and dismantled these bone racks." Seeing that Ain walked out of his tent a little refreshed, Harden immediately greeted him and began to report to Ain about the vigil.

Ain nodded, and then said, "There is no problem without soul connection, and if it is dismantled, it will be dismantled." Let's get ready for breakfast, eat a little more, and maybe tear down a bunch of bone racks before you have a chance to have lunch. And if you don't have water, come to me......"

After taking a few bites of his own dry food, Ain took on the function of a watermaker.

Although they try to make a fire to melt some ice and snow as a water source during the three meals, because these ice and snow contain magical energy, the efficiency of using natural fire to melt is still a little worse. The ice that could melt in just such a small meal time was not enough for these ninety-four people to drink until the next meal break.

Now that Ain has come into contact with the third layer of the magic net, the spell slot of the first ring spell is obviously not as tight as before, and the stock of the magic energy pool of the first ring is the richest of the four magic energy pools available now, so he simply exchange the magic energy for time.

……

By the time they set off again, the whole team had fallen silent, and even the sound of stepping on the snow when walking was noticeably reduced.

Although the skeletons were not audible, if there were a human necromancer, the loud noise would still be noticed.

As for the aura of the living gathered by these more than ninety people, Aine directly used the mage trick to cover it, so there was no need to worry about it at all. Although in human countries, most of the spells of the Necromancy School are on the list of prohibited mages, but generalist mages like Aine do not have these prohibitions.

"My lord, you're almost at the mountain pass." Harden, who was on Ain's side, gently tugged at the mage's arm.

Ain nodded, and then activated the magic silence ability of the oak staff in his hand, blessing a high-level invisibility on his body.

Then Ain handed Harden a small ball, and said: "I made this ball using magic tricks, and when this ball explodes, you can charge directly with the militia team behind you." As for the young ...... in the back."

When Ain said this, he handed Paul a small ball, and then said: "It's the same, the ball exploded, and you brought those young men to cover up, but you must ensure your own safety, these young men have not received that kind of systematic training." ”

Harden and Paul simply nodded and agreed because it was inconvenient for them to salute now.

At this time, Aine dragged his transparent body and slowly walked around the mountain pass.

It's still a bone frame, but the strength of these bone frames is generally insufficient, and basically a large number of goods can be solved by those militia with a single rush.

When Ain walked around the bone shelf, he realized that something seemed wrong.

There is no aura that is characteristic of the caster.

In other words, this bone frame guarding the main road out of the mountain is very likely to have no necromancer in charge, or in other words, the kind of magic energy fluctuations that only the special spellcaster of the necromancer in the town can already be covered up by himself.

Walking a little higher, Ain saw the entire skeleton of bones in the camp where the pass was stationed.

Although the bone racks don't need to rest, there are some high-level bone racks that still retain that human mind. In the same way, these skeletons do not need to be fed or rested, but for them this activity of human need is a habit of their own, or a consolation for their souls—in their hearts they are only living beings in a different state.

In the camp, what Ain saw was the sign of one of the undead creatures that he had the most trouble with.

There are stables.

The stables are full of skeletal horses.

"Damn, it's the undead knight who is actually guarding the mountain pass!" Ain's mood at this time was also not very good. He'd rather face a slightly stronger spellcaster, who can't be beaten with a little drag. But when it comes to these skeleton knights, no matter how fast you run, you can't outrun these four-legged skeleton horses.
