Chapter 122: The Wandering Mage's Challenge (1)
Ciphertext scrolls, a universal means used by the Dark Elves to deliver messages.
In the past game, the Dark Elf Ciphertext Scroll was a frequent item, but this item is a gray item for the simple reason that it cannot be cracked, and it is useless to get it.
Link took the scroll and looked closely, it was written with some inexplicable Dark Elf words on it, probably more than a thousand words.
With the help of the game system, Link can understand the meaning of these words, but it is some gibberish words, such as the sentence 'Banana peel is bigger than banana flesh', and Link is directly speechless when he reads it
"There should be an order on this scroll, but unfortunately there is no original password, so I can't understand it!"
Link tried to start carefully scrutinizing word by word, but after more than ten minutes, he still had no clue, and he just gave up.
"Forget it, let's put it away first." Link put the scroll into the spatial pendant, and said, "That's the end of the matter of the Howling Wind Cliff, there is no need to continue the investigation." However, you still have to keep an eye on the situation in the Gwent Forest, and if you notice a dark elf or any unusual mysterious phenomenon, ask Lucy to write to me immediately. ”
Philidia is very cunning, Link sent mercenaries to investigate before, it should have alarmed him, this guy must have thought of the news in the syndicate cave that might expose him, and fled directly.
It doesn't matter if he escapes, as long as he doesn't come to Gwent Forest to fight the demon Taruvis.
As soon as Link made this decision, news flashed in his vision, but it was news about the investigation of the Howling Wind Cliff mission.
The color of the task changes to dark red, and it is displayed as a failure, and since it fails, the task reward will naturally be gone.
Link can only admit it, he is not a god, how can he complete all the tasks, if he really wants to do that, then he doesn't want to have time to learn magic to improve his strength, and he will directly become a puppet of the game system.
Moreover, he is not short of free points now, and he already has another 130 free points on hand, of which 50 points are obtained by hunting down Bell, 20 points are added to the creation of three super magic skills, and he really learns the fire explosion technique, and he is promoted to a level 4 magician to complete the promotion task of 60 points, which is already a powerful force.
Ark naturally took Link's instructions to heart.
At this moment, a member of the group came over, but he reported to Ark, and Link said, "Go and get busy, I won't bother, oh, by the way, call Lefu over." ”
Now that he's back, it's natural to see the progress of the little guy.
He is ready to run the Flamingo mercenary group and make it a powerful help for himself, but a truly powerful mercenary group is not enough to have warriors, but also needs magicians. But magicians are proud of their nature, and truly powerful magicians will not deign to serve mercenary groups, so Link plans to cultivate one himself.
So, Link takes Love very seriously. 、
"Okay."
Ark exited the hall, and after a while, the girl Lefu came over, she was much better than a week ago, her cheeks had grown some flesh, and she was a lot rounder, and the water elemental aura on her body became more and more intense, and the whole person looked very watery, especially those eyes, moist, hazy, and a little shy and uneasy, which made people feel good at first sight.
Of course, this is just the appearance, Link is looking directly at the essence, and when Love appeared, Link felt the aura of magic energy that she exuded, well, much richer than a week ago.
A week ago, Love had only just awakened her talent, and Link had to touch her body to feel the magic in her, but now, he could sense it directly, and the progress was very obvious.
"Very good." Link nodded in satisfaction.
Lefu looked overjoyed and said timidly, "Mentor, I also learned a magic. ”
"Oh, what is it?" Link asked in surprise.
"It's condensation."
Condensation
No rank tricks
Effect: Condenses the water element in the air into dewdrops.
"Show me." Link encouraged that although it was a non-level trick, it could be mastered without guidance in 7 days, which was enough to show the intelligence of a girl.
Love nodded, took out his wand and pointed at the tabletop, concentrating, about three seconds later, a faint and invisible light appeared on the tip of the wand, the light shone on the tabletop, and after a second, the light disappeared, and a large amount of dew appeared on the palm-sized area of the table.
Condensation, indeed.
"Very good." Link felt that he had really picked up a treasure, and he also felt that it would be a waste of her talent to continue to let this girl stay in the mercenary group and teach herself.
Looks like we're going to have to take her to the academy. Link thought so, and did as soon as he thought of it, and ordered, "Go and clean up, and tomorrow morning, follow me to the East Valley Academy." ”
"Really?" The girl cried out in surprise.
In fact, as soon as Link came back, she found out, and then she was always nervous, for fear that her performance would not satisfy Link, God knows, this week, she almost put all her mind on learning magic, because this is the only way out for her.
Now that Link said so, it means that her performance has passed, and oh my God, she was able to go to the East Valley School of Magic, which is a holy place for magicians.
Although the little girl did not dance with her hands out of shape, her eyes were shining.
Link, who looked at this excited look, couldn't help but smile, nodded and confirmed: "It's true, go and pack your things." ”
"Yes, Mentor." The little girl 'jumped' away like a deer.
In the evening, Lucy also returned, only Gridan was still outside on errands, and could not return for the time being.
Lucy was naturally very happy to see Link, and asked for warmth, and personally cooked a delicious meal for Link, and a set of silver cutlery specially prepared for Link in the mercenary group was also taken out and used.
At the dinner table, everyone was relaxed, only Lucy knew that Link had sent the gold coins back, and after adding an extra 500 gold coins, she was a little worried that he had suffered herself, and there were many complaints between her words, which meant that Link would take the gold coins back.
Link was eating the food, happy in his heart, and seeing that Lucy was not at ease, he took out a small piece of Mithril by the way, and cast an enchantment on the spot, but in ten minutes, he made a beautiful bracelet, and the bracelet was blessed with a guardian enchantment that could be triggered three times.
Tossing the bracelet to Lucy, Link smiled, "Lucy, a gift for you." How's that, now rest assured, right? ”
This hand can be regarded as a stunning, you must know that such a bracelet, in terms of function alone, can be sold for 700 gold coins, not to mention such a beautiful shape, if it is given to the right eye, it is possible to sell 1000 gold coins.
Lefu on the side had a pair of watery eyes full of light, she had learned magic, and only then did she really know the difficulty of this hand, her mentor, who seemed young, but was unexpectedly powerful.
Ark smiled and said, "Your Excellency, your strength seems to have increased a lot. ”
Lucy put the bracelet away with great care, and then said seriously: "But you still have to take care of yourself, my lord, your face this time is much worse than the last time you came back." ”
Link smiled bitterly, Lucy's eyes were really poisonous, and the sequelae of the magic potion poisoning on his body had not been eliminated, and she had seen it.
"I'll take notice." That's all he can say.
After that, everyone naturally talked happily, but just as the private dinner of the mercenary group leaders was about to end, a member of the group quickly ran into the restaurant.
He knew that Link was the true master of the mercenary group, so he reported to him: "My lord, there is a magician at the door, saying that he is from the south, and he said that he wants to see your skills. ”
As soon as he heard this, Ark's face sank, and he stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "What kind of person is so arrogant, I will go and meet him!" ”
See and see the ability, this is the industry of the mercenary world, which means to come to the challenge, to see if you have the ability, this is usually a means for unknown people to make a name for themselves, it doesn't matter if you lose, if you win by luck, then you will be famous.
Now that this magician has come to see Link's skills, he must have heard of Link's reputation and wanted to use him to make a name for himself.
"Don't worry." Link pressed his hand, and then said to the group, "You go and invite him in, if he doesn't eat, just eat together." See the magic thing, and talk about it when you're full. ”
