"Stone of Ion......"

"A treasure of the ancient Arcane Empire."

"It was mine, but it was stolen by the hateful thief, and with the blood of the High Elves, the treasure was awakened...... Unforgivable! ”

In the dark corners of the forest, there was a vague shadow, facing the deep tree hole full of decay, muttering to itself.

The sunset shines through the dense clusters of leaves, hitting the ground in fine pieces. The shadow lifted the spell and gradually revealed its form. He wore a gray cloak and a high hat, and his skin was so white that there was no trace of blood, and he looked cold.

The slender ten fingers held a white bone staff, the tip of the staff was a skeleton, and the eye sockets and mouth were each inlaid with bright red energy gems.

Duru looked out over the open swamp ahead, his gaze gloomy.

Charles' reasoning was not wrong, the followers of the demon prince Orcas, had returned from Mashamba.

The Pale Lord held a staff in his right hand, but in his left hand he held a dark purple, strange stone in the shape of a spindle. It was scavenged by Durrou in a merchant of the sea in Magiba. In this regard, Duru did not feel guilty, but instead cast a spell to transform the entire gate of the sea merchants into undead creatures, and ordered them to launch an attack on the temple of Luoshanda, and the result was naturally the destruction of the gods and spirits.

The stone glows purple all the time.

Similar to the Charles, when Duru returned, he also used the blood of an elf to awaken the Stone of Ionn in his hand.

"The Stone of Ion. Arcane Vortex

Type: Strange Things

Quality: Unknown

Effect: Intermediate wake-up

1. Equipping charisma attribute +3

2. [Mana Vortex] (1/1 daily): A magical treasure from the ancient Arcane Empire, which allows you to temporarily gain the absorption ability of a black hole in the sea of stars. When the character is level 5, activate this ability. Fully immune to 1 triple ring spell attack; At level 10. Immune to 2 triple ring spell attacks. 1 Four-Ring Spell Attack. Note that energy absorption is limited to arcane arts, and divine spells are not in effect.

3. [Arcane Incarnation] (the conditions are not met, in the seal, the number of Ioon Stones is 1/3). ”

This is the information on the Stone of Ion, which Duru has in his possession.

"Retrieve the 'Dragon's Grip' stolen by the thieves, and the third Ioon Stone is missing, so I can make the three stones react with each other and unlock the final ability......"

Duru's eyes burned. He knew better than any other scholar who didn't know about the ancient Arcane Empire how terrifying the ultimate power of each Ioon Stone was.

It can be said that the ultimate ability is the essence of this magical treasure. Durrou expects to be able to understand these essences, even if they are only a little bit, and they will be of infinite use. After all, the Stone of Ionn was the brainchild of the first Grand Arcanist of the Nether Empire, and his achievements were only unmatched by his contemporaries.

……

The sunset was dusk and sprinkled over a lonely forest.

This is the central area of the King's Forest, if it was placed a few days ago. It must be the place where the flora and fauna resources are the most abundant in the forest, and there is even a legend that there is a green dragon.

But. Just last night, the fallen druids and a hundred Dark Knights roamed the forest, and the Blighter's aura of destruction turned all green and lifeless gray and black.

It was as if there had been a forest fire like never before, scorched all over the ground, and flames and acrid smoke were rising from the huge trees scattered and scattered.

Named "Camp of the Ruined", it is in the ruins of this forest, where Alyssa and the Knights are stationed, and the Dark Knights who patrol often engage in chaotic battles with players and aboriginal professionals from afar.

"Click"

Covered with a layer of dust, the black moon leather boots that were originally brown and yellow are now gray style.

The soles of the boots stepped on the soft ground covered with the charred ash of the trees, and the small pieces of charcoal and branches hidden in the dust suddenly shattered.

Charles clenched the 'Deep Sea Frost Flails' in his hand, his eyes wary.

Stepping into the scorched earth means that you will encounter battle at any time. The danger comes not only from patrolling the Dark Knight, but also from other players in the outskirts far from the main city.

Of course, the aboriginal adventurers, mercenaries, and some bounty hunters whose identities are mysterious are a group of unscrupulous professionals. In the city they are afraid of the law and will restrain all kinds of **, but if they go to the wilderness, these people are even more terrible than the evil believers.

"The 'Camp of the Ruined' has been discovered."

As his footsteps approached, a system prompt finally popped up.

The map markers were updated, and Charles hurriedly summoned a large map to see the exact location of the camp.

The gaze is fixed on the withered branches of the representative camp, and the text appears on the retina:

"A band of dark cultists have taken over the ruined camp, a former wartime megalithic fortress of goblins and orcs that has been hidden deep in the forest for years."

"Known Mission: [Hunt the Blighter]."

"Unclaimed missions: [Funeral Song of the Knights] (Purple, Regional), [Afterglow of Ancient Wars] (Navy)."

Landmarks show relevant mission information.

Needless to say, the purple area mission of [Funeral Song of the Knights] undoubtedly allows players to work together to kill the 100 Dark Knights.

As for [Afterglow of the Ancient War], it is a mission with the Boulder Fortress itself.

[Hunting the Blighter] has nothing to do with Charles, because he is here to seek protection from Alyssa, and it is impossible to attack the Blighter, on the contrary, to help her escape.

However, for the two missions of [Funeral Song of the Knights] and [Afterglow of the Ancient War], Charles wants to compete and earn more experience.

"Class: Civilian Lv10 (max) / Priest Lv12 (76%)."

Glancing at the stats bar.

After pitting Lilith and the large group of Dark Knights last night, his upgrade progress has increased by more than 20%, and if he can earn the remaining 24% in the Ruined camp tonight, then he will be able to rise to level thirteen.

Knowing that it would not be possible to turn back to Susar tonight, Charles calmed down.

Zhang Ze and the others have all the keys to the lead, just tonight. Accompanied by many high-level professionals in the royal court. Launch a surprise attack on the Dark Half-Plane.

This is the end of the second phase of the main story. Participants are expected to enter a half-plane full of danger and death, but they are rewarded with a reward commensurate with the level of danger.

Charles had wanted to return to the half-plane with his friends and take care of each other, but the Pale Lord Druux had blocked his way back, and his plans were completely disrupted, and he only hoped that he could recover some compensation in the forest.

The megalithic fortress is nestled among the ruins of the forest, with the setting sun and the red glow as a backdrop. Naturally, there is a desolate, rugged atmosphere.

The fortress is very large, at least able to accommodate hundreds of orc soldiers to live in it during the war, and the stone walls three or four meters high on the outside have not shown a trace of collapse, although they are covered with moss and weeds grow in the cracks of the stones, they are still strong.

On the high guard tower at the top, a black flag has been planted, and the pattern on it is a black fist emitting strong green rays.

This is the deity emblem of the Dark King Bain.

"Step 1. To first cross the high wall and enter the fortress. ...... to see Alyssa" Charles looked at the green walls around the fort with a strange expression.

Ahead was a scorched plain devoid of trees, where large groups of professionals gathered, arguing with each other about something, as if preparing to attack the fortress in formation.

Among them, there are about a hundred players, and there are twenty or thirty aboriginal professionals, of which a dozen are mercenaries of the same team, and some are in groups of three or two, or adventurers, or lone bounty hunters.

The royal court had already sent out scrolls to hunt the 'Blighted' yesterday, but after a whole day, it was clear that neither the player nor the natives had been able to break through the fortress's high walls.

The decision to organize the Provisional Legion was correct, otherwise, in Charles's opinion, this group would have to spend at least a week here, and only after the Dark Knights were short of dead and wounded manpower could they attack the fortress.

Twist the numbers into one, and then stand up with a convincing leader, and break the fortress when it comes tonight.

Instead of rushing over to find an organization, Charles stood on the periphery and watched the other players.

As time went on, more and more players arrived, and the number of clans tended to move closer to two hundred. Moreover, after observation, Charles found that the organizers of the legion did not refuse the Lone Wanderer to join, and he felt a little at ease.

"Hey, count me in, pastor!" Charles strode over and shouted to the organizers.

"Pastor?"

This shout immediately attracted the attention of countless teams, and before the few small leaders who were busy integrating the legions could speak, a player captain shouted: "Brother, I still have a place here, come on!" ”

As he spoke, the invitation message flew over.

The other teams that lacked people were not willing to be subservient, and one by one they also threw out invitations to form a team, and then, Charles's message receiving bar was swiped.

"Uh......"

It's been a long time since Charles has gone out with the wild group to forage for food, and of course he doesn't know the status of the priest, from being humble when he started the service, to being loved by everyone now.

"Quiet—"

A magnetic voice that came out in time suppressed the riots.

A tall, imposing-looking Warfighter player stepped out of the crowd, he was supposed to be the true leader of the legion, and when he first appeared, both the player and the natives cast respectful eyes on him.

"Overseers?" Charles recognized the man's profession at a glance, and only the Overseer could make him exude leadership.

"All the priests have withdrawn from the team, and now they will form a formation for the time being, and when we organize the legions, we will be assigned to the team one by one."

The Overseer's magnetic voice was unique and relatable, and he glanced at Charles, nodded, and said nothing, continuing to greet a few henchmen and two or three Native mercenary leaders to discuss matters.

By the time the sun had completely sunset into the western mountains, the Provisional Legion had been organized.

With a full two hundred and ninety men, almost three times the size of the Dark Knights, it would be no trouble for the commander not to make a funny mistake and break through the first line of defense of the megalithic fortress. (To be continued......)
