Volume 2 [Dark Tide] Chapter 187 Fat Man, Thin Man

Roddy, who was still light and breezy just now, has completely recovered his player's nature at this time, and even his eyes are faintly glowing green... He continued to rummage and found some more wands, but because of the age, the magic crystals embedded in them had long since lost any elemental power, and the dim appearance was like ordinary crystals.

"Phoenix wood?"

He tapped it, and the panel showed that the staff was "damaged", and Roddy had to think about taking the precious wood back to use—even if it was to be removed to make a chair, it was an antique

After the armory was turned over, there were really not many things that could be left in the underground of the royal family for seven hundred years, but what could be used so far were really good things, Roddy rummaged left and right, and finally found an entrance to the depths.

Continuing down, it was apparently an area that no one had visited since the war, with only a thick layer of dust on the ground, not even footprints. The light of the ring shone through, and it was a large round room, with hundreds of neatly shaped pieces placed on the ground... Stone?

Roddy approached and reached out to wipe it, then swallowed hard —

Conical Charged Hedron (Uncharged)

Sophisticated

Use: Releases energy to keep the circle running.

"High Elf Royal Arcane Defense Circle Exclusive"

It turned out to be the legendary "Charged Crystal"?

Roddy couldn't hide his surprise anymore, and froze in place like an electric shock...

The existence of "charging spars" is "alien technology" for the current human race. Although its essence is simple, to put it bluntly, it is an "artificial magic crystal", but the meaning is terrifyingly tight, in terms of the concept of Luo Di's modern people, its significance is no less than "alternating current" instead of "direct current"

As we all know, the magic crystals of Warcraft are like snowflakes, and there are never two pieces that are exactly the same. As the energy supply of the magic circle, the more uneven the magic crystal, the worse the effect of the magic circle, so the high-level magic circle has extremely high requirements for the quality of the magic crystal - the more unified the volume, purity, and capacity of the magic crystal, the more it can exert the power of the magic circle.

However, the naturally born magic crystal will always greatly reduce the effectiveness of the high-level magic circle, so the high elf invented the "charging crystal", an anti-heaven product, which increased the "elemental effect conversion efficiency" of the magic circle from 13-18 to 95 to 99

This leap is epochal. Its significance to the high-elf civilization is almost equivalent to the promotion of the "industrial revolution" by the improvement of the steam engine.

Luo Di knew that this kind of thing was completely because the kingdom of Karen had "unearthed" something similar in 59 years, and these hedrons directly caused a shock in the magical academic world, and thus a revolution occurred among the "priests".

There has been a lot of trouble on the forum for three or four months, and even Roddy, who doesn't understand "arcane", also remembers the waves caused by the "charged spar". But he never thought of it... I discovered this legendary thing 6 years in advance

But after being surprised, Luo Di also calmed down: although this thing is bluffing, it actually doesn't have much effect on himself.

No one knows how to charge the hedron in the Dao, so the biggest value of the "charged spar" is probably to directly disrupt the basic theory of the wizarding world at this stage. Its existence, to the death of the death is to make the academic world similar to the "theory of relativity" impact "Newtonian classical mechanics" of the incident, put it in the highest academic circles may set off waves, but for the illiterate Karen Kingdom, the impact is not great.

This is not necessarily a good thing, if it is not done well, it may do more harm than good, but for Roddy, the existence of this kind of thing is the same "hole card" that no one can think of, he thought about it, and decided in his heart to seal this thing and talk about it when it is useful.

After such an exploration, when he returned to the "book room" again, Brudy had already figured out his only way out, so he stopped going around in circles and directly asked Roddy for cooperation.

"There's a lot to say, let's go back to the village and discuss it slowly."

Roddy smiled and said to Brudy, leaving behind the team carrying the books, and with a team of six, they left the ruins and returned to Elsa's village - but they had not been far behind when they noticed something strange in the forest.

"It's a pack of wolves."

Brudy raised his eyebrows, making a clear judgment. However, as the village chief and with a guard, he had no fear of the wolves in the forest.

"It's a pack of wolves, but ... It's not just wolves. ”

Roddy stared for a moment, and with his "environmental acumen", he seemed to confirm something, and then walked forward and said softly: "It seems... The cooperation between the wood elves and humans can begin now. ”

"Buffon, put me down... If we continue like this, we're both going to be finished. ”

"I still have strength, you hold on a little more"

"I can't hold on... Put me down, I've got a lot of meat, I guess I can help you drag it out a little longer—"

"Fatty, you don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu said that if he takes you out, he will definitely be able to take you out"

In the forest, a thin guy was walking briskly with a fat man who was two laps fatter than him, and behind them, several dark shadows could be faintly seen.

The wolves trailed behind them, having been chasing them for a day and a night.

Both of them are dressed as mercenaries, which is a coincidence... It was a member of the "Iron Horse Mercenary Group" where Akasha was at the beginning.

There were a total of eight people in the "Iron Horse Mercenary Group", and when the beast tide hit, Akasha, who stayed in the camp, escaped. The six people who were hunting outside also suffered a blow and were almost wiped out.

Luckily, two of the six survived... To be precise, "one and a half". Henry, the fat man, was knocked out of the coffin by an elk, breaking the bone in his left leg and wounding his internal organs. And the thin Buffon is the only one with intact combat effectiveness, when the beast tide was a child, he did not give up the injured Henry, but carried the other party all the way to the present.

The two had returned to the camp with a glimmer of hope, only to find nothing but a mess and a shapeless corpse. So they are very aware of the fact that the "Iron Horse Mercenary Group" in Kiger Town may have come to an end.

As veteran mercenaries, Buffon and Henry have long been numb to death. In this industry, we must learn to face death at any time, and at the same time, we must learn to "choose"... It's just that for Buffon, death can be seen lightly, but he can't abandon his comrades.

Even though the fat man Henry asked to leave him behind countless times, Buffon still carried him so far with all his strength, and even after encountering wolves, he still did not give up... One man and two brothers, Buffon is this kind of character.

"Buffon, let me go and take a breath."

"Let's go again... Get out of here. ”

"I have something to say, really, don't go on."

Buffon squatted down and put him down, but he didn't expect that as soon as he landed on the ground, Henry waved his hand directly and said, "This time... I'm afraid it won't work. ”

After saying that, he coughed violently and spat out two mouthfuls of dark red blood. This is the result of internal organ trauma, and he has not died after so long, it can only be said that his life is too hard.

But what about hard life? It's still a dead end.

"Those wolves are not my opponents, as long as you hold on, we can get out of the city and go back to Kig Town, even if you have a broken leg, we can mix it up, and after ten years, how can we have something to eat"

Buffon tried to encourage the fat man, his tone was relaxed, but his fists were clenched tightly - for the footsteps of the wolves in the distance were approaching, and the cold killing intent was becoming more and more undisguised.

This is a pack of wolves, not wild dogs, let alone a pack, even a wolf is enough for Buffon. He is very thin, advanced to L-level "thief", and he has no attack power at all. The reason why this group of wolves chased for a day and a night was entirely because the fat man had brought a lot of potions to drive away beasts, and the kind of potions with the smell of high-level creatures delayed the pursuit of the wolves, but now that the potions have been used up, I am afraid that I really can't get out.

Everyone is afraid of death, but for his brother, Buffon is willing to risk this life - he got up and drew his sword, and said bluntly: "Wait until Lao Tzu is in this group of beasts and then take you on"

I have to say that the danger of the Silent Forest is too high for ordinary mercenaries, and the average size of this group of wolves is about the same as that of calves, which is scary enough just to look at. But Buffon had no choice at this time, he could only clench the sword in his hand and grit his teeth to make a defensive gesture.

Nine wolves, it seems that they really can't hide this time...

Although the scene was terrifying, Buffon did not lose his desire to survive because of his tenacious will, but just when he was about to take the initiative to fight the wolves, a word without warning suddenly appeared in the ears of the two -

"Two mercenaries from Kiege?"

Buffon and Henry, whose nerves were already tense, immediately shook their bodies

Buffon turned his head suddenly, only to find that a figure suddenly appeared next to the big tree beside him... The other party seemed to have been standing here for a long time, but he didn't notice it at all

The wolves around them also made a little commotion because of this, and it seemed that they were a little surprised and jealous of the sudden appearance of the enemy...

The ability to conceal the aura of this hand made the hairs on the backs of the two mercenaries stand on end, but now the situation is urgent, and the two of them don't know what the other party is from, and Buffon is even more short sword slightly raised, ready to deal with it at any time.

To Roddy's question, Buffon did not answer... His mind was in turmoil at this point, because the wolves in the distance were already ready to pounce

But Roddy ignored the wolves' intentions, and simply stood, carrying a short bow in his left hand, as if he hadn't seen the wolves at all.

Looking at the two people in front of him, one fat and one thin, and the embarrassed and abnormal, Luo Di felt a little emotional... In the game, he has seen too many so-called "brothers": tearing his face for a piece of equipment, fighting for a task, swiping the screen for a woman... There are so many that when others say "Brother, I'll tell you" later, Roddy will reply with a disgusted face, "Who is your brother?" ”

However, the two mercenaries I met by chance at this time were really different.

To put it bluntly, the "friendship" and "righteousness" in the game are fundamentally different from the real world. In the game, "death" does not exist, but the courage to truly never give up is really hard to find.

But... That's not why he chose to show up.
