Chapter 16: The First Sight
Enchanted items, which normally look like some pretty pieces of jewelry or weapons, in this case, how do you determine what they actually do?
The easiest way to do this is to inject magic and see how it reacts. However, this only reveals its most basic function, as each enchanted item has its own specific name, and if you don't know its name, the effect will be much weaker.
In this case, you'll need to bring them back to the trading area of the Transit Station and pay someone who knows how to forensify, or who can make an Identification Scroll, to know all the details of the enchanted item, including the name. Of course, if the reincarnation who gets the enchanted equipment has these skills themselves, that's a different story.
If the magic patterns on the magic items and the "meaning" of the magic items themselves are compared to a string of program codes, then "identification" is a process of scanning the program content, and identifying and integrating all the codes. In the process, you may even find some magic patterns that have not been activated before... Therefore, after killing people and buying unknown magic equipment, reincarnators will generally find a way to identify first, and some people will even buy some identification scrolls in the trading area and bring them to the plot world for later use.
However, now that the seven reincarnators who had just stripped off the two Purple Mist Regiment commanders, it was possible to save the trouble of this process.
Because one of the two fat sheep was still angry, the bald head cast a healing magic spell on him, and even poured a bottle of life potion from the mobile medical station into his mouth... After tossing and turning for a while, the fellow finally woke up, and then he saw fourteen wolf-like eyes, shining with cold light in the darkened sky.
The purpose of waking him up, of course, was to get out of his mouth what the five rings, a bracelet, two necklaces, a sabre, a short sword, a cloak, a pair of gloves, and a pair of shoes were, a total of thirteen pieces of magical equipment.
"If you say it well, we will give you a good one~" Xiao Yun held the painful moonlight and gently cut off one of his ears.
"Don't, don't, don't!!" The unlucky egg burst into tears, and feces and urine came out, "My father is a person from the Void Ancestor Elder's Courtyard!" Guys, if you leave me a way to live, you can still ask my family for ransom... Million! 20 million gold coins can still be taken out at home!! ”
It turned out to be a second-generation official... Of course, the reincarnators didn't want money, but they still agreed to save his life, after all, in this case, people can tell the truth more when they settle down. In addition, the Arad lingua franca in the mouth of this thing has reached the ears of the reincarnated, and it is also a strong flavor of northern Shaanxi... The location of the Void Ancestor on the Arad Continent is in the northwest, but I didn't expect it to be reflected to this extent. Also, it seems that the bartender brother in the Grossinger Tavern is also from the Void Ancestor...
When the fat sheep honestly told the information about these magical equipment one by one, Xue Qiong threw his bald head over there to listen to the confession, and then went with Xiao Yun to see what was in the carriage behind, in Xiao Yun's words: Maybe you can pick up the leak.
Because the carriage was at the back of the line, it was not damaged by the falling rocks. It's just that the horse was frightened and fell in the middle of the road.
The two of them were in charge of a carriage, directly dismantled the side wall of the carriage, and then turned on the flashlight to look inside.
The carriage that Xue Qiong was in charge of seemed to be a supply vehicle purely for transportation. As expected, the carriage was filled with things that the reincarnators didn't need... In addition to some treasures such as silk and satin, gold and silver ingots, which cannot be carried directly on the body, there are tents, blankets, iron pots, grain, forage and the like for cavalry marching, which are not considered "treasures" even in the eyes of the plot characters.
Xue Qiong also calculated the amount of these military supplies, and came to the conclusion that there was not enough cavalry for fifty people at all, and it seems that they had specially thrown away some things in order to make room for those treasures... However, who are these guys robbing and will have such a good harvest?
"Senior, senior!" Xiao Yun was waving to Xue Qiong, holding a plausible... Kerosene lamp stuff.
Xue Qiong also estimated that she couldn't find any good goods in this carriage, so she walked towards Xiao Yun and asked, "What did you find?" ”
"Look, this is so interesting!" Xiao Yun lifted the lamp with one hand, and didn't touch anything except the base, and then saw that the thing emitted a bright white light...
"Magic lamp?" Xue Qiong could feel that there was energy flowing into the lamp in Xiao Yun's body, so she said so.
"yes!" Xiao Yun said happily.
"It's better to have a flashlight..."Xue Qiong knew that Xiao Yun was the kind of mentality of a child finding a new toy.
He sighed, then looked at another carriage in the glow of the magic lamp.
The carriage was still filled with all sorts of gold and silver treasures. But unlike the previous one, there were no munitions, but a bench fixed to the wall of the carriage on each side, covered with ornate velvet silk scarves with lace.
"I see." Xue Qiong looked at the two chairs and said, "This carriage is not used to transport military supplies, but to transport the two pampered adults. And after making a fortune, the two adults wanted to ride a high-headed horse to show off their might because of the spring breeze, and second, there was not enough place for a carriage, so they could only vacate this place..."
"Wait, Xiaoyun." Xue Qiong noticed something strange, pointed to a somewhat worn wooden box in the carriage and said, "Have you opened that?" ”
Among the carloads of gold and silver treasures, this wooden box, which was originally very inconspicuous, became particularly conspicuous. It had its lid downward, and it seemed that it had tumbled in the carriage as it overturned...
"No, after I found this lamp, I called you over." Xiao Yun held the magic lamp and looked in with Xue Qiong.
Under the light, the two found that there were several holes in the wooden box, and they were obviously rudely poked out with weapons such as swords not long ago.
The glow of the magic lamp shone through those holes into the chest, and... The box shook a few times, and it didn't stop at all at first.
Xue Qiong and Xiao Yun glanced at each other, and then worked together to move the box out of the carriage, put it on the grass, and continued to use the light.
After moving, the box shook even more... At the same time, there was a collision sound and a "woo-woo" sound from inside.
Xue Qiong raised her eyebrows, stared blankly, and then took out the black dagger and cut the lock on the box with a click.
"Bang!"
"Woooooooo Whining! Woo!! ”
Before Xue Qiong could open the lid, it bounced off on its own.
Then, inside was a man who was struggling violently.
Wait, not people. Brown skin, long pointed ears, silver-white hair... It's a special dark elf!
The female dark elves, with their hands and feet tightly tied, their eyes blindfolded, curled up in a box... But her struggles were so great that she could barely move her hands and feet to push the lid open.
As for her constant whining, it was because her mouth was also blocked by a dirty rag.
"Hmm... Are those holes breathables? And there is a quilt under the box, it seems that I still care about your life..."Xue Qiong didn't take any action, but stood and said a cool word.
I heard a strange sound coming from here, and it was so loud when the lid was opened, that the reincarnators who were surrounding the captives all looked this way... But I don't know if Xue Qiong was intentional or unintentional, at this time, the position he was standing in was just blocking the sight of the other reincarnators, and now only he and Xiao Yun could see the contents of the box.
Xue Qiong didn't pay attention to them, but first helped the dark elf lying on her side adjust her posture so that her face up, and then pulled the rag from her mouth.
"Phew!"
A cloud of saliva flew onto Xue Qiong's face.
[Successfully interact with Minette, an important story character in the world, for the first time, and a reward of 280 points.] 】
Xue Qiong covered her face with one hand, and then immediately stuffed the rag back into the dark elf's mouth with the other hand...
Xue Qiong was silent for a while, and Xiao Yun looked at him and didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long time, he looked up at the starry sky and said a dirty word.
Within a few seconds, a large number of memories flashed through Xue Qiong's mind.
"Ah, that's... Servant, Assassin, called... Are you my master? ”
"Hiccup... I don't have any wishes I want to fulfill... Or has it already been achieved? Don't worry about me... To be honest, I was here for a 'nice getaway'..."
"Brother Xue Qiong! You take Xiaoyun and bald head, hurry up! I'm the last one!! ”
"I'm just...'Important people will never see each other,' and I don't want to see it again..."
"Already... It's too far. ”
"No, you'll have a chance to pay it back, Brother Xue Qiong."
Dark elves who smoke cigarettes and prefer cigarettes to pots, dark elves who use the gesture "Is this person's intelligence not well developed", and... That kiss.
"Aha..."Xue Qiong smiled bitterly, and then closed the lid of the wooden box.
"Learn... Senior, what's wrong with you? Because that spit only stuck on Xue Qiong's face, only Xue Qiong received the beacon's prompt. Xiao Yun felt that Xue Qiong had suddenly become very strange and dangerous, but she still stepped forward and hugged Xue Qiong's arm tightly, looking at him worriedly.
Xue Qiong took a deep breath, closed his eyes and opened them again, and changed back to his usual appearance.
"We'll talk about that later."
Xiao Yun's eyes changed from worry to surprise, what happened to make Xue Qiong have to forcibly reset her mental state again...
"Boss!" The bald head shouted at this side, "This guy has already said everything about magic equipment!" ”
"Let's go over." Xue Qiong wiped the saliva off her face, and then kissed Xiao Yun's forehead, "You have more strength than me now, and drag the box over with you." ”
"Senior, could it be..."Although he didn't receive a hint from the beacon, combined with Xue Qiong's reaction, and the fact that the box contained a dark elf, Xiao Yun also thought of that aspect.
"Hmm." Xue Qiong expressed his affirmation, and then strode towards the bald ones.
