Chapter 275: The Great Harvest
Reading between the lines of this book, Henry can feel the author's unbridled imagination. The mere thought of fighting such a mage gives me goosebumps. As a spellcaster who advocates control, he is most afraid of this kind of guy who does not play cards according to common sense. That means a lot of uncertainty, and there's simply no way to predict what your opponent will do next.
While Henry was holding the book and sighing, Shantil offered the magic sword found in the coffin with both hands. "Master, there's also a sword here. I could feel the energy up there, and I didn't know what a lich was doing with such a sword. ”
"God knows what these guys who have been eroded by negative energy think about it, maybe it's guarding against its own kind." Henry carefully placed the book in the dimensional bag, and then used a spell to identify the longsword.
Sword of the Sun: "Star of Daylight"
Whether it was made specifically for the service of Thom (the god of allegiance and the Paladin), or simply forged by chance during the long history of the Church, this sword did not detract from the sword's fame during the battle of the "Loyal Fury" paladins against the evil undead. This longsword grants the wielder the ability to unleash the "Yang Yan Explosion", which is a pure positive energy that is extremely powerful and can kill an undead spirit with ease.
Special Abilities:
Once a day, a "Sun Burst" (Upon successful casting, a ray of sunlight will shine on the caster, and a glowing scorching orb will explode and sweep through all living beings within ten meters of the caster.) Not only does it blind hostile creatures, but it also deals powerful magical damage. Undead creatures that are particularly afraid of sunlight will be purified if their resistance fails. )
Fight against evil and immortality. Adds additional hit and magic damage
Hyon gently swiped his fingers across the blade. The sword shimmered with a golden rays of sunlight. It can be said that this weapon is the natural enemy of all undead creatures. As long as there is it. Most liches and vampires are not vulnerable at all. However, since he already had Daken's Seth Knife, he simply threw the weapon to the sorceress along with the scabbard.
"Take this sword and use it first. However, it's best to be careful when using Yang Yan Blast, after all, you are also a member of the evil camp, and it is easy to be accidentally injured by positive energy. ”
Shantil pulled the sword away from it, then shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "It's nothing, at most it's just a little bit of a wound. After all, I'm not undead, and the damage I can do is very limited.
"Well, whatever you want. But now find out the lich's lifebox. I don't want it to come back to us for revenge. With that, Henry continued to cast his detection spell and began to search the underground halls for secret doors and secret rooms.
The sorceress didn't dare to slack off, and started looking for it from another direction. Both of them were very careful, not letting go of even the slightest crack. Two and a half hours passed, and they had already spared the surrounding walls, floor tiles, and even the ceiling, but they found nothing.
Henry rubbed his forehead and cursed, "Damn! This lich must be hiding its lifebox in a half-plane or something. ”
Shantil thought back for a moment and shook her head slightly. "I don't think so. He mentioned it when he climbed out of the sarcophagus, as if he had been sleeping here for a long time. Normally, a Lich that has entered a dormant period will not allow himself to be too far from the life box. Otherwise, once someone else finds it, the small life will be in the hands of that person. ”
"The sarcophagus? That's right! We haven't looked underneath this coffin. The sorceress's words reminded Henry. He immediately ran to the coffin and carefully examined the pattern on it. Soon. Just on the inside of the sarcophagus, a small raised piece was found. After pressing it harder, only a loud rumbling sound was heard. The base of the coffin suddenly began to move to the side, and slowly a huge pit filled with gold coins, gems, and jewels was revealed.
Shantil laughed as she glanced at the mountain of treasure. "Hahaha, it seems that this old immortal guy really has a lot of good things. Look at this wine glass made of Mithril, I'm afraid it's hundreds of years old. There is also this mechanical arm made of pure gold, which seems to be a craft left over from the Imasca Empire. I'm starting to wonder a little now, what was his identity when he was alive? ”
"Leave the gold coins and jewels alone, find me the life box first. If I don't make it into a crate golem for a day, I won't be at ease for a day. Henry jumped into the pit and rummaged through the piles of gold coins and gems for magical items.
After careful searching, the two finally found a half-meter-long tin rod at the bottom of the pothole, which looked a little old. Its head is cast in the shape of a dragon's head, and the body of the staff is carved with intricate inscriptions. Judging by the rich negative energy emanating from above, this should be the lich's lifebox.
Shantil stared at the cane and asked, "Do you want to start now?" It takes at least two to three days to make a crate golem, and if this guy is resurrected halfway, it will be troublesome. ”
Henry thought about it for a few minutes, and finally nodded. Before becoming a legendary mage, he didn't plan to go directly to the lich. Unless their own strength surpasses these guys, they are likely to secretly use a "confinement technique" to permanently imprison you in another dimension, and then slowly find their own life box.
After making up their minds, the two men quickly sorted the gold coins, gems, and jewels in the pit. After counting, there are about 300,000 ancient gold coins worth about 300,000 and more than 3,500 gems of various kinds. In addition, there are a large number of expensive antiques, but they are not very easy to sell. Finally, there are four magic wands that exude magical fluctuations and a magic ring.
After a simple identification, they were an invisibility ring, a fireball staff, a lightning staff, a dead cloud staff, and finally a pit dread. This weapon allows enemies to turn and flee, but has a 1 in 5 chance to permanently decapitate the user. I'm afraid no one will want to use it except for those from the chaos camp.
Henry kept the Staff of Death Cloud for himself, and threw everything else to Shantil. As for the Dread Staff, it was added when the zuò golem was made for a while, and the alchemy creatures didn't have much charm anyway. Since I had the experience of making zuò last time, I just need to do it step by step this time. With the help of the sorceress, he was able to complete most of the work in the evening.
Both of them were a little tired after a busy day, and when they came out of the underground tunnel, they saw that the entire hotel had collapsed in half. Perhaps it was Shantil who unleashed the "comet", and the violent vibrations caused the wooden building, which had begun to decay, to retire early.
"What to do? Why don't we go find a new hotel? Shantil asked cautiously. She also knew that it was likely to be her own masterpiece, for fear of angering her master.
Henry walked over to the part that had not yet collapsed, shook the pillars that supported the structure, and realized that it was not here that it would fall at the slightest touch, and that it might not matter if it was okay for one night. He turned to the lady and said, "Let's stay here for the night, and then find a hotel when the Golem is finished." I'm not very comfortable with half of my body there, and it will be a big problem if it is stolen by thieves. ”
Shantil thought about it, and it was the same reason. You must know that losing money is a small matter, and once the date of making the lich is delayed, it is a big deal to resurrect the lich. "Okay, I'm going to put a couple of magic traps around and thieves sneaking in."
After the two of them took protective measures, they simply ate something and went to the second floor to find a room to sleep. Perhaps the reason why the inn was so dilapidated was that there were no night thieves for the whole night.
The next morning, a piercing scream woke Henry from his sleep. He hurriedly got out of bed, got dressed and shoeed, and ran downstairs to see what was going on. I saw Gervera covering her mouth, and behind her there were more than fifty workers with vegetables, but they were still in good health.
Seeing Henry coming out of it, Govilla ran over to a candle and said, "Thank you, Lady Luck!" It's great that you're okay. You know, this job is so important to us, and many people would go hungry without it. ”
The girl's words made Henry cry and laugh, it turned out that she was worried that she would have an accident and no one would pay her salary. "Okay, now it's time to get to work. Your task today is to clean up the collapsed part. As for the salary, I would pay it at the normal employment price. One silver coin per adult male, and one lunch. ”
"No problem, sir. My name is Steko, and I'm the head of these workers. We'll be clearing the planks and rubble by this evening. A middle-aged man stepped forward and assured.
Henry nodded slightly, then pulled out a few gold coins and placed them in Govilla's hand. "These are the dishes for today's money. I've seen it, the kitchen is ok to use. Also, don't go near the northwest corner, where I put some valuable, fragile items. ”
"Don't worry, if anyone dares to get close to noon, there will be no food!" The girl took the gold coin and kicked the worker behind her viciously.
Foreman Sterco laughed and clapped his hands. "Haha, Govira, you'd better hurry up and go grocery shopping and cook. But I saw that this gentleman gave you at least five gold coins. If we don't see meat at noon, we won't say yes. ”
The girl carefully placed the gold coins in the bag on her chest, and then made a rude gesture to the foreman. "Die! Steko. If you don't hurry up to work, get ready to drink the pot water at noon! ”
Seeing the happy appearance of these ordinary people, Henry smiled and shook his head, turned back to the house. After he woke up Shantil to eat something, the two of them quietly went to the underground hall and continued to make the Golem. According to the plan, today not only will the main part be completed, but also the golem will be attached with spells from level one to level nine. (To be continued......)
