Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Battle
Don't wait for the sun to shine indoors. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Martin is already up. He looked around and saw that some of the other people's places were vacant as well. It seems that many people got up earlier than him.
When he finished washing up and walked downstairs to the makeshift dining room, he saw that some people were already having breakfast. He noticed the breakfast on the table, which was not only not rich, but simply too basic. Even a small temple like this shouldn't provide such poor food, Martin thought. He noticed that Liukrisia was holding a slice of bread in her mouth, and looked at the soup in front of her with a sad face.
"Morning. "Good morning. When Martin walked in, everyone greeted him in a friendly manner. Lyukrisia also put down her bread and greeted him.
Walking straight to the spot next to Lyukrixia, Martin also picked up a slice of bread. When the bread was in the mouth, he finally understood why Liukrisa had such an expression just now.
"Why is this bread so unpalatable? He couldn't help but complain. It's a saying that the food is poor, but it's too much to eat to the point where it's too much.
"It's a habit that has been passed down from ancient times. Lyukrixia replied. "You should know that in ancient times there was a people in the East called Rasi Timon. They eat simply pig food. But they are very effective and build the country by force. Because on the one hand, people who are semi-starved will be more alert, and on the other hand, poor food can make them not cherish life and see death as home. ”
"Well, I remembered. The elves of Minoan City taste the food from Rasitimon's canteen when they visit Rasitimon, and then he says that he knows why Rasitimon warriors are so brave in battle, because there is nothing to be remembered about life. Martin replied.
"That's right, what is in front of you now is the infamous Rasitimon black broth, and when you eat it, you will understand why the Rasitimon warriors fought so fearlessly. Lyukrixia replied.
Martin's face suddenly turned ugly, and of course he knew the broth, the terrible mixture of pork cooked with pig's blood, vinegar and salt. It should not be food for humans, but as bait to poison demons. It may be a joke, but there are many people who vomit after eating it.
Seeing Martin's face change, Liukrisa seemed to find it a little amused. She went on to say, "Everyone who is fighting this fight, everyone has to drink. After hearing this, Martin really understood why Liukrisa had that expression just now.
When asked the people around him, and learned that it was not Liukrisia who was playing tricks on him, but really wanted to drink the broth, Martin couldn't help but mutter, "At this time, can I still withdraw from this operation?"
But after complaining, Martin drank the broth anyway. Although the taste in the mouth is very poor. But wait until the broth is in the stomach. Martin felt a wonderful power kicking in his belly. He looked at Liukrisa a little puzzled, and the latter said to him with a smile: "This meal is so simple can be explained as a custom before the war. But forcing the broth has its practical implications. It's actually the equivalent of a potion that works for a day, increasing the combat effectiveness of melee combatants, making them more calm, alert, and stamina. ”
Then, Martin saw that Lyukrixia also lowered her head and drank the broth. He couldn't help but feel a little admiration. As a warlock, Liukrisa can actually shirk and not drink that terrible broth. But she drank. It can only be said that she will not only do her job well in the adventure, but also take the initiative to take on more dangerous extra work.
After a depressing breakfast, there was still some time before departure. Martin chose Liucretia to pass the time. He brought the conversation to Liukrisa's college life, as he was curious about that life.
The topic shifted to textbooks. At Martin's repeated requests, Lyukrisia granted his wish and took out the textbook.
When he saw the thick textbook on the table, Martin was a little surprised. It seems that the Arcane Academy really is more than just a place to teach the Arcane. At least, Martin saw the thick history textbooks.
In addition, there are many textbooks of various kinds, and there are as many as six copies of the "Monster Illustrated Book" alone. Martin couldn't help but open a book and look through it.
The Bestiary is an extremely useful book for adventurers. It introduces in detail the names, types, sizes, tenacity of life, speed, attack methods, the thickness of the armor or fur they often wear, and special abilities. There is also information about habits and common haunts, as well as organization. With it, a mage won't be in a hurry when facing a monster he's never seen before. Instead, he will shout, "This guy is afraid of fire, I just happened to remember two fireball spells!
Martin had seen Bestiary before, but he had only read three, and the third was not long ago. Seeing the six copies of the "Monster Illustrated Book" that Liu Crexia took out from the space bag, she couldn't help but sigh that the Arcane Academy was not ordinary. But Liukrisha then took out books such as "The Troll of Bombardment", "Winter Wolf of Bombardment", and "Minotaur of Bombardment", and explained, "We actually only learned the first two "Monster Illustrated Books", and the others appeared as supplementary reading materials. Many students complained that the school was making money from it. ”
In addition, Liukrisa also took out other textbooks, which made Martin feel that it is not easy to be a student. Liukrisia: They have to learn more than one language. Dragon language is a must, in addition to the second foreign language, that is, the second foreign language to learn. Not only that, but probably because the school leaders wanted to prevent the kind of cowardly mages who were killed by the enemy because of coughing and casting spells incorrectly, they also specially opened a course in physical education. In this course, you will not only exercise your body, but also learn how to use weapons such as daggers, long sticks, and crossbows. The mages of the academic school are generally extraordinary after they come out.
However, it seems that not all of the school's books are used regularly. For example, the arcane history book that Martin held in his hand was obviously not opened for a long time. The book is interesting, and it seems that the writers have a lot of grudges against psionic powers, and in that arcane history book, it is repeatedly mentioned how brilliant arcane used to be, and it is much, much more powerful than psionic abilities.
Although the "we were very broad" in that history book has a strong atmosphere. But it's true that Arcane is what it used to be. But now it's different, professions like Skin Planter, Celestial Fortune Mage, and Elemental Scholar are already a bit of a legend, and few people have actually seen these people. Techniques such as dual wand casting, energy substitution, and spell shaping are now only mastered by a handful of people. Even ordinary spells such as teleportation are inexplicably ineffective, not to mention those ancient wonderful spells.
The history book was thick, and Martin suddenly felt something strange on one page when he flipped through it, so he turned to that page. Sure enough, a page of stationery fell out.
Liucrexia saw that the letter paper had fallen out, and immediately reached out and snatched the letter. Then he snatched the arcane history textbook and put it back in the space bag. That's when she remembered that she sometimes sandwiched things into books she didn't usually read.
Martin could see that Lyukrisia was a little upset. When I was thinking about how to solve it, the people next to me left the table one after another and walked upstairs, it turned out that it was time to assemble and leave. Spare Martin and Liukrisia the embarrassment.
With the wonderful effects of the arcane, they soon reached a forest thousands of miles away.
It was morning, and a bear slowly foraging for food was startled by the sudden teleportation of such a group of people, and it stood upright and waved its palms.
Martin stopped his teammates from preparing to attack and waved for everyone to back away.
Sure enough, seeing that this group of people had no intention of clashing with him, the bear left with interest.
Seeing the bear leave, Martin explained, "Bears are actually quite cautious animals, and in many cases they avoid fighting. But once in battle, they can be vicious. It would have been easy for us to get rid of it, but I didn't want this innocent bear to be killed by us. ”
Then, they signaled and waited quietly for their teammates to come and rendezvous. Tracer sat down on the floor and rested. After all, the Great War is about to begin, and it's important to restore the magic you just used.
Soon, the team that had come out earlier and had been lurking around here arrived to meet them.
As the greetings ended, they picked up Trace, who was still in an elven state of "eccentricity" and regained her magic, and began to hurry.
The journey is quite long, and in this age of declining magic, even a top-notch mage like Triste does not have the ability to teleport directly to the castle of Black-robed Bull. Black-robed Bull has set up a simple magic circle on the castle, which can prevent anyone from approaching his castle through teleportation. According to the pre-planned plan, it would take at least six hours for Martin and his party to walk to the castle of the black-robed Bull. That's why they had to leave early in the morning.
In a few hours, the battle will break out.

But now it's fine.
I know this chapter is extremely badly written, but I haven't felt good lately...... But I'm going to stick with it......
I recommend a very interesting book "I Am Not a Paladin". Although the language seems to be a spoof, the author is actually very serious. And the author is a person with enough knowledge.
