The three continued their journey towards Salzburg, without saying a word. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Martin glanced at Lyukrixia's slender hand. Then he fell into a state of thought, the white hands were so small in contrast to the cuffs of the sailor's suit, but they were so powerful—they could break the neck of a monster or make subtle gestures to cast powerful magic.

Just as he was thinking about it, he felt them slow down. When he glanced at his surroundings, he understood that they were approaching Salzburg. He had already seen the walls.

Soon, they came to the foot of the towering walls, walked up the drawbridge, passed through the Wolf's Tooth Gate, and entered the city.

In the distance, Martin was amazed by the grandeur of Salzburg. When he entered, he felt its prosperity. The town I've been to before is nothing compared to that. But Lyukrixia and Canian didn't feel anything. Not only have they been to too many big cities, but they are from Arimiron, that glorious and great city. People are speculating whether Arimillon will become the second "City of Seven Hills", the second human city to rule the world.

Led by Canion, they quickly reached the end of the tour, the Pantheon in Salzburg.

The so-called pantheon is a temple dedicated to multiple gods. In this world of freedom of faith, even the priest of the god of war prays to the god of love when it is not going well. The Pantheon was built because of this religious atmosphere. Of course, there can only be beliefs in a pantheon that do not conflict with each other. After all, no matter how liberal the place is, there will still be clashes of faith.

Considering that the churches of the various good gods tend to be the biggest funders of good ventures, it is not surprising that the headquarters of this great operation were located in the Pantheon.

Walking in the magnificent temple, Martin couldn't help but smile. When the guards away from the temple came to a secluded and uninhabited corridor, he said, "If the people of the temple know my identity, I'm afraid something very interesting will happen." If it weren't for the severity of the consequences, I would have really wanted to shout out my identity just now. ”

"Hey, you're too bored. Lyukrixia said.

Soon, the trio arrived at the place where they were staying. After assigning the room, Martin asked, "If you have time, can you let me go out into the streets?" and after a little thought, Canian said, "No problem, just remember to come back before dinner, and things will be arranged in the evening." ”

When Martin was gone, Lyukrisia couldn't help but say to Cannian, "You trust him so much, aren't you afraid that he is a spy who came in, and now go out and find someone to connect?"

"Do you think he will?" asked Canion, rhetorically.

"I don't think he will!, but shouldn't he be more careful with such an important action?"

"You're thinking too much, no one would arrange such an unreliable conspiracy. Those elaborate intrigues only exist in fiction. There are too many in reality that could disrupt an overly complex conspiracy. And judging from his usual performance, it is impossible to be a spy. Canian continued, "You take a break, and I'll go talk to Triste about something." ”

When Canionne met Triste, she was compiling information.

"How's it going?" Canion's asked after greeting.

"The amount of information about the other side is still increasing. We don't have the manpower yet. Such a large operation requires at least six standard squads to be safe. I decided to draw a vanguard of two standard squads for the assault, but there were still three shortages. Triste replied.

"Are there three missing?" said Canion, thoughtfully. "So you want the three of us to join?"

"Yes, exactly. ”

"Don't you doubt him? There is no precedent for such a dangerous and significant operation to involve outsiders. Besides, he's not your average adventurer from a tavern, he's a Starch Spencer Druid. Canian asked.

"Why is there no precedent? Didn't the team we put together improvised, when we killed that lich many years ago?"

"But you met in the midst of danger, shared a common goal, and went through the adventure of living and dying together...... Canian continued. It's not that he has any prejudice against Martin, but that Martin is the one he brought with him, and he has to remind Triste to be careful enough to take responsibility for Martin.

"Haven't you been on an adventure together?"

"Well, even then, there is really no precedent for a regular action like ours to be attended by outsiders. ”

"Yes, I know, but I trust him. Because I know what he wants. That kind of need, it is difficult for those evil people to bring him. He didn't want gold or silver or other material things, but something deeper. Moreover, I can reveal to you a secret, I know his teacher, and I know what kind of students his teacher will take. That's why I can trust him. And, do you really think there's something wrong with him?"

"Not really, I just think I should be more careful. Canian said.

"You're overthinking. But after thinking about it, after the last failed battle, it's not surprising that you'd be so careful. But don't worry, I'll be cautious. If you really still think it's too dangerous. I can get Liukrisia to stay, or put her in the cover group. Extra, go find someone else. ”

"Thank you. ”

"Well, please help me sort this out, how can I not use the coolies who have thrown myself into the net?" said Triste with a smile.

“......”

By the time Martin returned, it was already night.

"I'm sorry, I was so involved in the fun that I lost track of time. He explained to Canion.

"Nothing. Now, I would like to ask you a question for all seriousness. Canian said.

"What?" Martin saw Canion staring straight into his eyes. Judging from Canion's solemn countenance, this time the matter was no less than the last time Canion's request.

"Will you take part in this crusade against Black-robed Bull?" asked Canion.

"I do. Martin replied without thinking.

"......," Canian guessed. If Martin was not willing to continue the adventure with them, then he would have parted ways with them a long time ago. However, for the next question, Canian was not confident that he would receive an affirmative answer. "So, would you like to join the vanguard of the team? ”

"This ......" Sure enough, Martin hesitated. "Who will attend?" he asked.

"There's me, and a few of the adventurers Triste has invited. Their fighting power is no longer below me. Canian replied.

"......" Martin continued to be silent.

Just when Cannian was already giving up hope, Martin said, "I do." ”

"Oh?" Cannian was surprised. "Don't you ask what kind of reward you will receive?"

"Tracer is a generous elf. I don't think I'm going to have to worry about getting anything in return. Martin said with a smile. "What's next for me?"

"Let's go on a table adventure with them. Canian said. "It's going to be done in a small living room not far away. ”

"They know who you are, you don't have to worry about that, I use my personality to guarantee that they won't leak secrets. In the hallway, Canian said to him.

When Martin entered the small living room, the people sitting on the couch stood up to greet Martin.

"Hello, my name is Barende. One of the dwarves shook Martin's hand warmly, and the handshake was loud. I don't know if it's the glasses or the meticulously combed beard, but in short, this dwarf gives the impression of a scholar's elegant demeanor without the metallic smell that dwarves usually have. But the voice was not bad at all.

"My name is Sasri. A dark-skinned, pointy-eared lady gracefully extended her hand to Martin, no doubt her red pupils and white hair telling her of who she was—Drow.

"Desert wind. A large, half-orc said briefly.

"Thomas. Servant of the eagle and the glorious god of Azis. A human priest also reached over and shook Martin's hand. Martin felt a lot of strength in his hands. He must not be the kind of person who stays in the temple and studies the Scriptures. Rather, it's an adventurer who often wields a hammer to smash someone's head.

"You can call me a shark. A young man greeted Martin lazily. He was the hero of the last data, a powerful wanderer.

"Alright, now that everyone has arrived. So let's get started. When Martin finished introducing himself, Canionan said.

"Isn't there a Trace?" asked Martin.

"Without her, she was not with us in the fight. In fact, according to the plan, it was her to face the black robe Bull, and the mage of the black robe's level was not something we could deal with. So without her during the deduction, all we have to do is show her the battle report. Plus, this time, you'll want to tell you more about your fighting style and abilities. ”

"Ah, let them introduce themselves first. Martin said. Canion's knew that Martin was going to take this time to figure out what to reveal and what to hide, but he agreed without hesitation. "Mofeng, you can speak first. ”

"My race, as you can see, is half-orcs. I am a fighter. The way of fighting is a little different, though. In fact, I learned the art of the Nine Swords. ”

"Nine swords...... Martin muttered softly to himself. The mystery of the Nine Swords has always been a curiosity for the Starch Spencer Druids, but they have never been able to solve the mystery of the Nine Swords.

"I studied the Sword of the Sage. Mo Feng continued.

At this time, Martin's interest was even stronger, the Sword of the Sage, the most wonderful of the nine swords. It's not just about physical skills and martial arts moves, it's about being able to unlock all sorts of supernatural abilities. It blurs the lines between physical power and magical skill. Martin knew that those who cultivated the Sword of the Sage could even master the elements of fire or shadow.

"The genre I chose was Mofeng, and that's why I changed my name. Mo Feng continued.

At this point, Martin was so interested that he even forgot to think about what abilities to hide. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully to Mofeng's introduction.

After Mofeng's introduction, others also made introductions in turn. Martin was not interested in them. Like Lyukrixia, Sasri is a warlock, but she is a bit stronger and can perform level 6 arcane arts. And Barend is a mage, his strength is even stronger, he is already able to cast seventh-level arcane, and it can be said that he is a very powerful mage. Shark is a strong wanderer, and in addition to his job of picking locks and traps, he is also an extremely powerful guy. The sheer number of magical items in his space bag made him feel like a tiger.

After everyone had finished their introductions, Martin began his introduction. In addition to the ones he introduced last time, he revealed a few more this time.

"This ......," the crowd amazed.

It was none other than Martin's animal companion who surprised everyone. A chimpanzee. Originally, the adventurers standing here were well-informed, and a chimpanzee was not unusual, but the chimpanzee made a very unusual move - it used a wooden stick to perform a wind combo.

"That's right, that's what makes it unusual, don't look at it with a black head and black brain, it's the kind of thing that knows how to be a warrior monk, although it is only equivalent to a low-level warrior monk. Martin said proudly. This chimpanzee was his pride.

When the interest in chimpanzees was over, Martin gave more information. When he mentions that he can distinguish objects in the dark like bats, Sasri becomes intrigued. "Can you see through the Dark Enchantment? When I was underground, I stumbled upon the fact that bats can come and go freely in the Dark Enchantment, where even the Dark Elves can't see through it. "That's right, bats are able to move in the dark not by their eyes, not by some kind of strange vision, but by echolocation, so for magic like the Dark Enchantment, it's not a problem at all. Martin explained. "Well, we can develop a new tactic based on that. Canian nodded.

In addition to this, Martin also introduced some other abilities, and the result was nothing more than everyone knew that there was no need to add some auxiliary magic to Martin - the Starch Spencer sent the druids to get the same result.

When Martin finished his introduction, the deduction began. The map is laid out on the table, and the model is set up. A sand table was also placed on a table not far away. Drinks and snacks are at your fingertips. There are also books written by the adventures summarized by the predecessors, which are placed on the shelves and are readily available, from the characteristics of monsters to the arrangement of various traps.

Martin quickly felt their professionalism. This time, the tabletop adventure they carried out, from the rules of the battle order (round) to the rules of maneuver to the rules of the battle result adjudication, is far more rigorous than the ordinary tabletop adventure, because they have accumulated a lot of actual combat application experience and adventure raw data.

In addition to this, the rigorous attitude of these people can also be seen from the use of dice. Like wargames, table adventures use dice to decide uncertain events. For example, in wargames, dice are used to determine the rate at which troops are depleted, while table adventures are used to determine whether an attack hits the enemy or some other event. But this time is different. A lot of times, they have to throw three outcomes at the same time and then take the worst of them. They have to anticipate the worst.

In addition to this, sometimes, they calculate time in seconds, a fine unit of time. It is one-sixth of the smallest unit of time commonly used by the public. For their actions, sometimes only seconds are accurate enough, after all, one second is enough to kill a person, and sometimes monster attacks are carried out in the form of supersound.

In addition to this, they also have a good art of spellcasting in the use of magic. Restricting movement first, and then bombarding and killing, they can play a lot of tricks.

"Are you sure you're going to use the activation shield?" Martin questioned after seeing Barende's move.

Martin knows the basics about magical items. Magical items work because they create a flow of magic that surrounds the whole body. So a person can only bring two magic rings that work. The kind of magic ring that wears a hand full of magic and uses scrolls and wands to engage in so-called "smashing enemies with money" combat. It can only be the fantasy of ignorant civilians. Because it destroys the overall flow of mana, only two rings with more than two rings will work. This is true whether it is a six-armed snake demon or a hundred-armed giant. Only a handful of transcendents can carry just one more valid magic ring. Scrolls, for all their convenience, can greatly reduce the power of magic. The power of a Burning Hand cast by a wise mage with a scroll he copied is only equal to the power of a burning hand cast by a lowest-ranking mage. Wands are more effective and can create wands that preserve the power of magic, but when it comes to breaking through spell resistance or the enemy's own resistance, the effect is far less than that of normal magic. The same is true for the Activation Shield, although the shield floats within 2 feet of the user, freeing the user's hands. However, it still interferes with the casting of the Arcane.

"No problem. This tactic we have used. Since I'm going to do a dangerous move for about 10 seconds now, the benefits of activating the shield outweigh the disadvantage of being temporarily disrupted by the cast. After all, on the one hand, there is also Sasri who can play the role of spellcaster. I can also use a wand that won't be disturbed. Barend explained.

It's really man-made. The same is true for the use of other magic items. Martin grew accustomed to the kind of combat that follows the barrage of flashbangs or stun grenades thrown at him. There are also different combinations of spells when encountering various monsters, as well as the wonderful magic items they come up with, such as a rope that is tied to an arrow and shot out through a crossbow, and walking on the rope can avoid some of the dangers caused by traps.

"No wonder so many of us with great power will be surrounded and suppressed, and it is indeed dangerous in front of these well-trained adventurers. Martin thought to himself. At the same time, he was glad that he had made a choice that made him much less likely to be on the opposite side of these adventurers.
