Chapter 13: The Return of the World's No. 1 Magic Array Master (10,000 Rewards Plus 2)
Eric (sleepless) woke up on the edge of a lake at the foot of a mountain.
Generally speaking, this kind of environment should be said to be "beautiful mountains and waters, and pleasant scenery", but he is really embarrassed to say this - the surrounding rocks, the turbidity in the lake, and the presence of dry bones nearby, this place does not look like a good place at all. Don't say anything about "poor mountains and bad waters", I'm afraid that it already belongs to the level of "life forbidden area".
Wake up here, if you want to change to an ordinary person, you will naturally die. However, Eric is not an ordinary man, he is a magician, and he is the most adventurous and heads-up type of magician - a rich enchanted mage.
Well, the rich, that's the most important.
Speaking of which, the two enchantment masters of the guild are all rich, but their styles are completely different, one pays attention to excellence, carries a bunch of high-end equipment on his body, and takes a random thing out of it is a high-quality product, which can cause adventurers to rob him;
Faced with the harsh environment around him, Eric relied on those self-made high-quality equipment and walked out without much effort. After contacting Sanyu to confirm the situation, he walked around the wilderness and rested, and it took him almost ten days to return to civilized society.
It took a few more days of rest before he finally fully recovered.
And at this time, Panda and the others finally rushed to the town where he was - Fermi Town.
"I'm relieved to see that you're in good spirits!" When everyone met at the hotel in the town, Panda smiled and said, "I'm still worried that you're a royal capital, and your physique is not good, so you can't bear the hardships of a long journey!"
"If you had come a few days earlier, you would have seen my haggard face. Eric sighed, "Actually, if it weren't for Sanyu saying that there is a lack of manpower on your side, I would have planned to resurrect and go back a long time ago." ”
The panda laughed dryly: "That's really hard for you! By the way, did you see anyone else in the place where you woke up?"
"No, I'm the only one there. ”
"So...... Do you know of anyone else who has been lost to this world?"
Eric shook his head: "The first time I saw a living person after I woke up was in this town. Until now, I hadn't even decided where the world was, let alone anything else. ”
Panda sighed, "Then it seems that we still have to carry out the previous plan." ”
"What was the plan before?" asked Eric.
"It's basically ......" Panda introduced it in this and this way, "...... Well, that's it. ”
Listening to the panda's introduction, Eric's eyes widened: "You mean that you plan to change careers in this world to become Jiangyang thieves, and use criminal behavior to gain popularity, so as to attract the attention of everyone who may wake up?"
"Almost. ”
Eric reluctantly covered his forehead with his hand: "Can't you use your brains a little? If someone wakes up, won't he use private chat to contact everyone? If he has been connected in private chat, why bother? If he hasn't woken up, it means that he is still being sealed." For the people who have been sealed, no matter how famous you are, what is the point?"
The panda was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Loma, who had made the suggestion.
Loma turned his head and looked at the wine on the bar: "Those wines are really good, I'll go have two drinks, and you can talk slowly - wine is the life of our dwarves!"
Seeing this guy put on a posture of killing and burying, the panda was speechless.
"Well, now I don't think that plan is reliable. He shook his head and said helplessly, "So what are your plans?"
Eric thought for a moment and said, "Our biggest problem now is how to find those sealed companions, right?"
"That's right. ”
"So, in fact, what we have to do is not to make a name for ourselves, but to collect 'black stones that fell from the sky, larger than men, and so strong that they are beyond imagination,' right?"
"That's right!"
Eric hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually...... Your plan can also be used as a reference. ”
"Can I refer to it?" Panda asked in surprise, "How?"
"We can go to the capital of this country and hold the king hostage, so that he can find such a stone to redeem himself. ”
Panda was stunned, he didn't expect Eric's plan to be so radical.
He turned his head to look at Alfiin next to him, who was obviously unmoved, and said calmly: "You come up with the plan, and I am only responsible for executing it." ”
"I think it's a great plan!" said Loma, who came over with a bottle of wine, and said with a smile, "Break into the palace, take the king hostage, and ask for treasures...... It sounds imposing!"
"But there is also a big drawback to this plan. "What is the life of a king compared to a rare treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation?"
"Huh?!" both Panda and Loma grew their mouths in shock.
"The king of this world, if you want to talk about the position of power, of course, is high enough. But actually, it's not a big deal. Eric smiled and explained, "The king is dead, and another one is there." Even if the royal family is dead, there are other great nobles. In other words, the great nobles wished that the royal family would die so that they could ascend to the throne. ”
"Then here's the problem. If you were a great nobleman and you had such a treasure, would you hand it over to save the king, or would you hide it at home and wait patiently for the king to be killed by the terrible bandit quartet?"
Panda frowned at Eric's smiling question.
Based on his knowledge of the world, it seems that the latter is more likely.
"Then we can't do anything?" asked Loma, "and we can only rob one nobleman at a time?"
"Theoretically, this is the most practical approach. Eric replied, "Unless it's dropped off the beaten track like me, any fragment of a seal that has been picked up outside should be found this way." ”
"How long will it take?" Alfien asked, "probably not in a year and a half." ”
Eric sighed: "Yes, although this world is not big, it will take a long time to rob one lord after another...... The point is that we must give each lord a period of time so that he can search for such stones in his territory, which is the most time-consuming. ”
"In other words, it would be a huge time saver if we could get all the lords to start searching for the seal fragments now?" Panda asked.
Eric nodded: "That's right, that's it. ”
"In that case, let's start from the perspective of the 'exorcist'. Panda said, "Using the identity of a famous exorcist to release the news of the 'dangerous and terrifying black stone' should have a certain effect." ”
He squinted his eyes and smiled a little slyly: "After all, the nobles are all written 'curious' and read as 'dead'......"
