060 The first demon hunting mission

In addition to the various oils applied to weapons, there are also a wide variety of potions and decoctions, which can greatly enhance various abilities when consumed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, as the saying goes, "it is a medicine that is poisonous". These potions and decoctions, which have a powerful effect, will also produce toxins while enhancing their abilities when consumed. Only people who have undergone professional training and have been reforming their bodies through various herbs for a long time to improve their resistance to toxicity can use potions and decoctions without being eaten by toxins and dying.

And such people are often physically strong and battle-hardened warriors.

As a mage, Roy's physical fitness was only stronger than ordinary people because of Tamson Enhancement, so he thought it would be better not to touch these potions.

Having bought a lot of food, cooking utensils, and tents for sleeping in the city of Nîmes, Bishop Taven rummaged through a large pile of parchment rolls for a long time, and finally found a suitable task for Roy.

"You go north from the city of Nîmes, along the River Ain, to the Forest of Water Spirits. Near the forest, an abandoned castle barricads the avenue. This avenue connects Marseille and Lyon and is an important transport artery. And the abandoned castle, which is said to be occupied by demons, attacks passers-by from time to time, causing panic in the hearts of the people. The specific mission information is written in a parchment scroll. You kill the wraiths, clear the castle, and you've completed your mission. ”

Roy took the parchment: "Understood, Lord Bishop. ”

"That's right." Bishop Taven reminded, "While magic is effective against all kinds of monsters, silver weapons are the most effective against evil creatures. You might want to consider getting yourself a silver sword or something. ”

Roy thought about it, and his pistol was made of Holy Mithril in part, which was just right for evil creatures, and he didn't need to get another silver weapon.

Other demon hunters use silver swords, so I use silver swords.

"Thank you for the reminder, Your Excellency. Then take your leave. Roy was noncommittal to Bishop Taven's reminder, bowed slightly, and left the study.

"Hmph, another confident young man......" Bishop Taven looked at Roy's back, his eyes flashing with uncertain light, "It's okay, the more arrogant the guy, the easier it is to deal with, and it will save more effort, and they will thank me." ”

Leaving the Abbey of Maglona, Loy returned to the city of Nîmes.

It would take about six days to ride a horse to the target's castle, and given the unforeseen circumstances, Roy would have to prepare at least ten days' worth of food.

Of course, he has a subspace package, which basically does not need to be considered as a weight, and is able to make more adequate material reserves for the trip.

The quest information on the Parchment Roll is more detailed, and it also gives a lot of thoughtful advice to novice Demon Hunters. For example, when dealing with demon spirits, the best silver sword is smeared with evil spirit oil. With this sword oil, the weapon can deal more damage to the Wisp.

Flame magic is a good choice when dealing with water ghosts encountered on the way, and if you smear corpse oil on your sword, you will be able to fight more with half the effort.

Roy didn't pay much attention to this little knowledge.

His pistol was enough to deal with most monsters, and he didn't have to spend any more energy gathering materials and refining all kinds of sword oil.

However, through these little knowledge, Roy found that although the level of magic in this world is not high, the development of alchemy is quite rapid.

After the tarpaulin, nails, ropes and other tools and materials, Roy was ready and set off for the north of the city.

As we walked farther and farther away, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. As the Al Ain River gets closer, the terrain changes from plains to wet swamps.

A water ghost is a type of monster that has been transformed into a drowning person in the water who has been infected with magic. They haunt where there is water, and especially like to lurk near the shore, waiting for a creature to pass by, launch a surprise attack, drag it into the water, drown, and then eat its carcass.

This monster is extremely water-based, and is considered a variant of the ghoul.

During his travels, Roy learned his first spell from the Advanced Study of Qi Magic. This spell converts the mana in the body into lightning energy, which is condensed into a beam and fired, dealing damage to all targets in its path, and when it hits an enemy, the lightning will also splash at nearby targets.

This spell consumes 8 mana points at a time, which is equivalent to a three-ring spell.

As a result, Roy recorded this spell called "Lightning Beam" on the spell list of his personal system, and classified it as the Three Rings of the School of Plasticity.

In addition to learning the first attack spell, Roy finally raised the mage level to 6 after continuous meditation.

After leaving the world of the ship mother, without the blessing of the power of faith, his mage level increase speed dropped all of a sudden. This made Roy miss those cute ship girls. But when he thought that there would be a chance to return to the world of the ship mother in the future, he was quickly relieved.

In this magical Middle Age, the free magic that exists in the world is particularly active, and it is no wonder that it is so easy to give birth to a large number of demonic monsters. And because the magic is too active, it is difficult to be controlled and shaped by people, so it is difficult for the casters of this world to take the route of fine spell casting. It's no surprise that magic isn't as kaleidoscopic as the mages of the Torrell universe.

But for Loy, the more active his magic is, the more he can meditate. And as a non-native, the negative effects of overly active magic won't affect him too much.

In the evening of the second day after departure, Roy could already see the lonely shadow of the castle in the distance, surrounded by a large forest.

He decided to rest for the night and enter the castle again tomorrow morning.

It is very important for a mage to have enough rest to keep his brain awake at all times.

With a muddy brain and a tired body, he breaks into a haunted castle in the dark of night......

Except for the protagonist of a mentally retarded B-grade horror film, I'm afraid no normal human would make this choice to die.

During the two-day trip, Roy also gained a lot. He eliminated four groups of water ghosts and obtained alchemy materials such as water ghost brains, water elemental essences, and monster blood.

In combat, Roy tried to spell his enemies and didn't rely too much on pistols. In this way, you can hone your actual combat ability as a mage, and secondly, you can also save some ammo.

Although he had 500 rounds of ammunition on him, the ghost knew how long he would live in this world, so he still planned for a rainy day and saved as much as he could.

Finding a flat, dry place, Roy began to set up camp.

Dinner was simple, dried mushroom stew in broth, bread, cheese, plus a pot of light fruit wine.

Although mages should stay away from alcoholic beverages, a glass of wine can warm up the cold when traveling in such humid swampy areas, and can also spice up the taste and maintain a pleasant mood.

After eating, Roy sprinkled the camp with powdered medicine that caused the monsters to be unpleasant, to make sure he could get a good night's sleep and not be disturbed. In addition, he created several trigger-type magic traps with simple tricks.

Whenever an intruder touches them, these mechanisms make loud noises.

With these measures, he was able to spend the night with peace of mind.

As is customary, Roy meditates for an hour before going to bed, then studies the magic book for a while before lying down.

In the middle of the night, a strange loud noise was heard, which woke Roy up.

He jerked to his feet, slapped his cheek to clear his brain quickly, and rushed out of the tent.

The loud noise wasn't the noise of your own magic mechanism being triggered. Roy looked around and saw a bright green glow shining in the depths of the forest not far away.

He blessed himself with a "detection magic", and when he focused his attention, he immediately saw a huge magic fluctuation emanating from the light source.

"Since my job is to explore the secrets of the world, how can I not check it out when I encounter this kind of thing." Roy pulled out his pistol and approached the light source.

As soon as he took a few steps, he felt the temperature drop suddenly, and the exhaled breath quickly condensed into a white mist. It was late spring and warm in the south of France, but when it snowed heavily, the plants in the forest were quickly covered with a layer of white, and then froze to death due to the low temperatures, and quickly withered.

Roy's eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw that the snowflakes had a faint yellow color, full of unclean magic!

This snow is not a natural phenomenon.

Roy hurriedly opened the plane shop in the world of Torrell and purchased a one-ring protection school spell scroll "Endure Elemental Damage".

This spell allows the target to move freely in environments ranging from -70 degrees Celsius to -70 degrees Celsius without being harmed.

When Roy cast a spell through the magic scroll, and his body was shrouded in a transparent light film, he suddenly felt that the bone-chilling feeling was far away, and he felt a lot more comfortable.

Many of the points he earned for completing tasks were used to buy various magic scrolls, but these purchases were worth the money, which made Roy admire the convenience of the plane shop.

When Roy walked to a clearing in the woods, he realized that the green light source was a portal suspended in mid-air!

Roy blessed himself with three spells: Guided Shooting, Insight Opportunity, and Demon Eye as fast as he could. The Demon Eye is his newly learned prophecy three-ring spell that allows the caster's eyes to pierce through all darkness like demons.

With this spell, he can fight in the dark as much as day.

After casting the spell, Roy gripped his pistol, ready to fire at anything that moved.

He had a feeling that, in a moment, he was going to come out of the portal and make himself very, very tricky.

It didn't take long for Roy's feelings to come true.

In the portal, a flash of energy lightning suddenly slashed!

Immediately after, a white figure flew out of the portal and fell to the ground. Roy looked at it and saw that it was a young girl of seventeen or eighteen. Dressed in a simple white linen shirt and tight leather trousers, she could not hide her delicate figure, her hair was a rare grayish white, and there was a shallow scar on her beautiful cheek.
