128.Dungeon (4)

With a shield in one hand and an elven dagger in the other, Merlin advanced down the corridors of the dungeon. Barbara followed him, and the two did not speak, carefully observing the movement around them.

The cold wind blowing along the stone walls at the edge of the corridor had a cold, disgusting smell. Barbara covered her nose with a frown. "Beware, I smell ghosts!" Barbara tugged at Merlin's sleeve.

"Ghosts?" Merlin couldn't help but retract his footsteps, "a summoned creature from the abyss?"

Barbara nodded, and her eyes fell on the mural on the edge of the corridor, which was a lithograph that had been blurred to the point where it was difficult to see the contents, but there were several clear scratches on the lithograph, deep into the stone wall, and the image was terrifying.

"The ghost from the abyss is a special kind of being, disembodied, existing in the darkness in the form of an energy body, and the latest research from the Apocalypse Academy shows that this energy body contains many negative emotions, and they are extremely aggressive when they encounter living beings. ”

"The knight's killer?" Merlin asked.

"Of course!" Barbara had a vague smile on her face, the presence of the second-ring spellcaster in the ashfurnace castle has always been very weak, there is no way, the lord does not pay attention to the caster at all, although the salary given to her is not low, but except for the investigation of the kobold altar, there is almost no other research project.

Merlin took two steps back and stood side by side with Barbara, and if the knight's attack didn't work against the ghost, then Barbara was the only one who could deal with the infernal creature.

"This dungeon isn't something that the evil spellcaster can have, look at the patterns here," Barbara cleared the ground to reveal a number of ornaments entwined with laurel branches and thorns, "This is probably the handiwork of the elves in the end of the law." ”

Merlin nodded, he had in his hand an elven shortsword handed down from the elves, this kind of short sword made of Mithril was lightweight, but extremely sharp, and it was perfect for casting cloud strikes.

"The task I received at the Apocalypse Academy was to monitor the movements of those kobolds in the Valley of the Ashheart, but it seems that the magic portal is located on the first floor of the dungeon, and it seems that this is not accidental. The crystals you received on the first layer should have been condensed from the overflowing magic of the second layer. ”

The ghost appeared without warning, and in such a dark corridor, the pine torches could not find the translucent magical creature suspended in mid-air, like a cloak.

Ah, Merlin couldn't help but scream, as if someone had stabbed him in the forehead with a dagger.

The spell book in Barbara's hand quickly opened, "@@@##¥%%......" a shining light explosion, the spells of the ghost holy light system from the abyss are the most effective, but Barbara is not good at these spells of the church. She chose one of the common one-ring spells, the Light Blast.

Babbling, the ghost's attack appeared in the hallway in a sound wave that the two of them couldn't understand, and the attack was like a gust of wind blowing, feeling nothing but feeling something different.

It was deafness deprived of all five senses, and Barbara opened her mouth to find that she could not hear a sound at all. At this moment, the people who were attacked by the ghost lost their sense of hearing.

The spellbook flipped rapidly, frozen, flames scorched, and one by one the spells poured out and fell on the ghosts suspended in midair. I don't know how long it took, but the ghost dispersed like a puff of smoke, and finally a black magic crystal the size of an egg fell from the smoke. Falling to the ground, Gollum rolled a few times before coming to a halt at Merlin's feet.

Merlin couldn't be happier at all when he picked up the magic crystal, the dungeon was far more difficult than he expected. The ghost is dead, but Merlin's deprived hearing has not been restored.

"What should I do?" Merlin pulled out a stack of papyrus from the package and scribbled a tadpole line on the paper.

It was the first time Barbara had seen Merlin write, and she was soon attracted by Merlin's graceful and majestic handwriting, and bowed her head and fell into deep thought.

Falling into silence, some of the old communication habits lost their effect, Merlin had been waiting for a long time, and Barbara still didn't respond.

Merlin stretched out his hand to remind her, just as Barbara looked up, and Merlin's outstretched hand was placed on the caster's face without warning.

Barbara felt like she was in a dream, and the handsome lord in front of her seemed to kneel down in the next moment, kiss the back of her hand, and then propose, but she did not refuse. Is the scene in the fantasy about to be recreated?

"The Dharma God is above!" Barbara muttered in her mind, then snatched the pen from Merlin's hand and trembled to write a scribbled line on the papyrus: Forward.

Barbara's dream is to become a great five-ring spellcaster, and she has been working hard for it. Until one day, her mentor, the dean of the Apocalypse Academy, Mistress Maggie, called her to her lab.

"Barbara, my dear child, you're confused right now, aren't you?"

"Yes, wise Mistress Magi, my magic power and the realm of the caster of the Three Rings, why is there no way to break through to the Three Rings?"

"Barbara, what is the nature of magic?"

Barbara shook her head.

A bright light pierced through the void and landed on the crystal ball in Meiki's hand, she let go of her hands, and the crystal ball rose with the light before stopping above the two people's heads.

"See, my child, you're going to be the greatest spellcaster of the Apocalypse Academy. Through the hazy crystal ball, a woman's figure appeared in front of the two of them, "You are the last talented spellcaster that the teacher has ever seen in this body." ”

"Why, teacher, why am I stuck in the realm of the second ring and I just can't break through?" Barbara's body shook, and she seemed to be unable to stand again.

"Go ahead, look for your breakthrough. Maggie pulled out a white envelope. "There's an adventurer quest here, you go, now you need to travel to the mainland. ”

Barbara held the magic book in her hand tightly, her magic power had reached the middle of the three rings, but she still couldn't break through the shackles of the god of law. Or a two-ring spellcaster.

Attacks from ghosts do not act on the body, but directly attack the human mind. After being deprived of hearing, after not being able to hear a sound, one should feel very quiet, but Barbara's ears became noisy.

She was like being in the market, the sounds of selling, fighting, yelling, all kinds of sounds came one after another, all rushing into her mind.

Ah, Barbara is like a firework, casting a bunch of brilliant magic, and as the magic pours out, it seems that the cacophony is also far away.
