Chapter Seventy-Five: Jafar
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The ins and outs of the matter have been figured out, and Lorelei no longer stops Link from lifting the curse from the wolf.
[Use the Divine Spell of the Child of Nature to disarm the spell it contains.] 】
At Lorelei's prompting, Link cast a natural healing effect on the statue, and the skin of the wolf, which was as hard as stone, began to soften. In less than a minute, the wolf was transformed from a stone-hard sculpture into a living flesh and blood.
Although not as close to the Pillar as the Children of Nature, the Druid is a believer in Nature and can feel the will of the Pillar. Sixteen years ago, Pillar summoned a Lifeweaver from the Atlas as a Child of Nature, intending to deal with Frost, also from the Exiled Lands. It is rumored that the newborn Grand Duke of Befast is a lifeweaver, and Jafar was ordered by Hull, the guardian of the pillars of the earth, to go to Befast to confirm that at this time, he was intercepted by the demon lord close to the surface layer on the way, and was cursed to ossify. It was both glad and disappointed that the newborn in Befast was not a child of nature that had been specially selected by the column.
Jafar was sealed, but it could still feel the outside world. Since the failure of the test of the Archduke of Befast, the demon has thrown it aside and no longer asked, ** after the thief stole it, it circulated in the hands of one collection after another, because of its own magic and curse **, as long as it is held for more than half a year, it will cause both psychological and physical damage to the collector.
During his journey to Vaolet, he talks to the traveler about a rumor that has made him happy: Bray has replaced Lorelei as the new god of magic with the help of the Children of Nature. If it were to be changed to something else, Jafar might not believe it, but when it came to the change of priesthood, it couldn't help but have some expectations, could it really be a child of nature summoned by Zhu from the other world?
Soon, Jafar's expectations were validated.
In the crowded market, it recognized the difference at a glance, regardless of his appearance, he exuded a natural and peculiar aura, and he did not fit in with the crowd around him, like a beast in a human shell. Seeing the man approaching step by step, Jafar had never been so agitated for a moment.
Did he show me? Did he recognize me?
It was put into the dimensional bag, and when it was taken out again, it was in a warehouse-like place, and the room was filled with all kinds of things. After that, the man was lost in thought to himself, and Jafar was anxious, why didn't he lift the curse?
As the minutes ticked by, Jafar even began to wonder if he had been imprisoned for so many years that he felt delirious. It's just a Ranger with some force of nature, not a child of nature. Just when it was a little disheartened, the man tapped his finger on the top of its head, and then it heard a heavenly word.
"Nature's healing. ”
With this divine technique, which only belonged to the children of nature, the almost petrified body began to recover, and as soon as the standing posture that had been maintained for more than ten years was lifted, Jafar was so weak that he fell directly to the ground. Ignoring the pain in its body, it stared straight at the young man beside it, and just as it tried to struggle to its feet, it was stopped.
"Don't move, you're still weak. Although the wounds from the battle with the demon were no longer bleeding, the wolf was still weak from the body throw, and Link held it down, telling him not to move, while performing a more powerful pure healing technique to recover.
With two natural spells in quick succession, Jafar no longer thinks that he is admitting his mistake, "You are ......"
"I am Link, a child of nature summoned by Pillar from the Exiled Lands. Link was equally emotional. Jafar in the illusion was his first natural ally and follower, and although he didn't teach his skills like Ires and Hull, he still had a certain weight in his heart.
"Your Excellency, who are you talking to?" Yoda, who heard the voice coming from the storeroom in the hall outside, poked his head into his head curiously, and saw Link half-crouching, and a thin black wolf lying on the ground, although sick, but a pair of eyes were still fierce, staring straight at him.
"This is my messenger, don't bother me if there's nothing particularly important. Link explained.
Yoda said yes again and again, hurriedly retreated, and closed the door by the way.
The wolf had recovered from his weakness and had the strength to get up.
"You're with humans?"
"Yes. ”
"Why? Humans are the root cause of nature's destruction, and if it weren't for them, the Pillar wouldn't have been corrupted!" Death's identity was no secret among the druids, and Jafar couldn't understand why the Children of Nature, whom the Pillar had specially summoned from the Otherworld, would have mixed with humans.
"The column did not give the order to destroy the miè humans. Moreover, they are also needed to deal with the Grim Reaper. Link pinched his eyebrows, and the excitement of a demon made him forget about the conflict between the druids and humans.
Jafar didn't answer again, and since the Child of Nature said so, it wouldn't disobey the Pillar's orders.
Lorelei let out a low chuckle in Link's consciousness.
The sarcasm was so obvious that Link couldn't ignore it.
[I just simply hate the druid's dead brain, and I don't know how to change it.] 】
Link understood what Lorelei meant, not just humans, druids probably hated all creatures that destroyed nature. Humans can be on the list, and mages are indispensable, and the goddess of magic is indispensable for this.
Sensing Link's thoughts, Lorelei didn't want to discuss this topic with him anymore.
[Listen, there are many kinds of contracts: alliances of relative equality of status and ability, which are often concluded between druids and clergy for mutual benefit, and can also be dissolved for benefit or other purposes.
The master-servant type is one of the more common types of mages, and is dominated by the stronger side, and the elemental makes the above mages make contracts with magic, elementals, and even creatures outside the physical realm. This kind of contract can only be released after the death of the master, and during the continuation of the contract, the master and servant have a heart-to-heart connection, and it is difficult to rebel.
Finally, there is the shared life type, whether voluntarily or forced, if one of them dies, the other will also die. Mages will also use this contract on higher creatures that are hard to catch, in order to achieve the purpose of self-preservation. However, the most common use of this kind of contract is the great demons, who use various means to coerce and induce them to complete the contract, just to satisfy the satisfaction of entering the material realm to kill for fun. 】
Saying the three major types of the contract in one breath, Lorelei urged him to sign a contract with the wolf quickly.
"In order to stop the Grim Reaper from continuing to grow, the Pillar joined forces to cut off the flow of life. Link briefly told the wolf about the current situation.
The impact of this news was no less powerful than the appearance of a child of nature in the crowd, and Jafar was stunned.
"Stream of life, isn't that ......" As a druid, Jafar knew the meaning behind this act, and it was a last resort. The second-generation gods relied too much on the power of faith, and as long as the flow of life was cut off, they would not dare to act rashly. But even if it is a pillar, it cannot block the flow of life for a long time, and it is related to the fate and future of the whole world. During this time, if the Children of Nature are unable to defeat the Immortal Empire, the Pillar will carry out a plan to exterminate humanity, suppressing the Grim Reaper's greatest source of faith at its root.
"Time is running out, and I don't want to watch a species go extinct. Link held out his hand to the wolf, "Will you help me?" He deliberately did not mention the identity of Jafar Druid, nor did he command as a child of nature.
"Because you were once human?" Jafar asked, not replying.
"It is precisely because I am a child of nature at the moment that I cannot allow humanity to become extinct. Every species is interconnected, and the absence of any link will affect the balance of nature. Link thinks he is a good speaker and is confident in convincing Jafar.
The wolf lowered his head and touched the back of Link's hand with his forehead, and a wolf-shaped totem appeared on the back of Link's hand. This situation gave Link the illusion of going back in time, and in the illusion, he did the same, giving up the pride of the wolf clan and willing to follow as a servant.
It was through his contact with Jafar in the Illusion that Link learned that he was a druid who was duty-oriented, and that maintaining the balance between the safety of the world and nature was the task of the children of nature and the druid, and nothing could be more convincing than this.
[I can't see that your kid is quite cunning.] Lorelei teased.
Link doesn't deny that he has exploited the wolf's nature, and he needs a willing follower, not a demon who simply surrenders with strength. What's more, with the signing of the contract, Jafar can also be the same as his mind and can sense what he thinks in his heart.
Sensing that there was another trace of consciousness hidden in the soul of the child of nature, Jafar was shocked, could it be two souls in one?
Link didn't hide it either, [Lorelei. 】
Jafar was even more surprised, but it also indirectly proved that the fall of the goddess of magic was not a rumor.
[No matter what her identity was or what she did before, now she is just a trace of consciousness remaining in her soul energy, and she doesn't need to care about it anymore. Afraid of Jafar's objections, Link informed the purpose of leaving Lorelei in advance, [I am from another world, I don't know much about Edgar, and her knowledge of magic is unmatched. 】
Jafar, who has different skills from the same sect, has nothing to say, although the power of the child of nature comes from the pillar, but the use of skills is closer to that of a mage, Link is indeed right, in terms of knowledge of magic, there is indeed no one who can compare to the former goddess of magic. What's more, neither being a druid nor a demon can disobey the commands of being a child and master of nature.
The wolf's silence meant acquiescence, and Link didn't want to spend too much time talking about Lorelei's identity and why she was in his body, so the conversation stopped.
Now that the problem of demonization has been solved, then ...... Now it's time to move on to making magic items, and the time Pillar has run out for him.
Aside from the magic bow Wind Falcon, Link is not very satisfied with the last batch of magic items made by Zuò, and plans to make a series of elemental-based weapons. If you want to catch up with Bray and form your own unique style, you can only start from your own advantages.
Condensed into the shape of the ice element, with the handle of pure gold, and the magic power of its own magic to connect the two together, the magic sword as thin as paper and as thin as a finger will make everyone who sees it marvel at its exquisiteness. As for the special effects...... Unlike Servis's magic sword, which was superficial, it was a real weapon, with a sharp edge and a freezing effect, making anyone scratched by it slow to move.
Link picks up the underrated Bloodstone. Due to the fact that there are so few materials that can be enchanted, when making zuò magic props, mages and prop masters have to choose between Mithril and Adamantite as a carrier, and the high price of these items is destined to be unattractive to ordinary people. The mage could afford expensive rare metals, but he preferred to use bloodstone to make a wand in order to convey that not all magic items must follow the convention of using Mithril and Adamantite.
Knowing that Link was going to use bloodstone to make a wand, Lorelei exclaimed, "Hey, why did you choose bloodstone, although this thing can be enchanted, its elemental affinity is very low. 】
[For things to kill, it is perfect to use bloodstone to make them.] Link insisted on his opinion, and the bloodstone quickly turned from an ore into a slender staff under the effect of soul forging, and the pitch-black staff body did not use the common inlay style, but chose to hollow out, which looked like a solidified flame from a distance, and only soul forging could smelt and forge the metal into this shape.
The third magic prop Link did not make any more weapons, and in order to make up the four elements, he chose the shield that best represented the earth attributes. In contrast to destruction, the Earth Elemental represents life, perception, and defense.
This is by far the most used prop of Adamantite, the style of the Tower Shield, which wraps a thick layer of earth elements around the Adamantite to make the shield look like a stone.
Pulling open the door to the storeroom, Link summoned the person in charge.
Looking at the three freshly baked magic props, Yoda picked them up one by one and tried them, although the surprise was not as good as that of the Wind Falcon, but they were all high-quality products.
"Ice crystals, fire, mountains. Link's gaze crossed over Yoda to the previous batch of magic items that had been placed in the locked display case.
"What are the names of these three?"
"Hmm......" Link walked over to the display case, "remove those pieces." ”
"What?" Yoda, who was all attracted by the three new products, turned around, a little unsure of what Link meant.
Pointing to the other four things in the display case that were placed together with the Wind Falcon, Link said that he would replace today's three items in it, "Since this is an appearance, it will be an instant hit, so let's leave the four defective items behind." ”
Yoda thought about it carefully, and it made sense. According to Link's meaning, in his opinion, those four pieces are indeed defective, and they cannot be compared with weapons in terms of appearance or efficacy.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the union.
Unable to be revealed, Link hid back in the storeroom. Yoda slowly opened the door, and Orlando stood outside, and he went to Link's rented cabin first, and was told that he had checked out and left. I went around the market and didn't find anyone, so I guessed that Link must be here.
"Are you there?"
Yoda nodded, letting the half-elf in. Hearing his voice, Link also walked out of the storeroom.
Orlando was stunned when he saw the wolf following Link, and he had a sense of déjà vu.
"It seems to be ......"
"A follower of the goddess Avga?" Before Orlando could remember, Jafar revealed the identity of the half-elf.
"The Druids of the Pillars of Earth?"
"Spoken!"
The voices of Orlando and Yoda rang out in the hall at the same time, and the two looked at each other, and Yoda shut up in amusement. Even the Children of Nature have appeared, and it is not surprising that another druid has popped up, enough has surprised him in the past few days, not this one.
Link gave Orlando a look and told him to go into the storeroom to talk in detail, there were some things that could not be said in front of Yoda.
Looking at the door of the storeroom that had closed again, Yoda pursed his lips and continued to copy the invitation arranged by the president. He was also very busy, and the nobles and merchants of the surrounding territories had to be divided.
In the warehouse, Orlando looked at the wolf he hadn't seen for many years.
"You know each other?" Link was very curious about how these two people who couldn't get together actually knew each other.
"yes...... Orlando sighed, "it was two hundred years ago, and we were hostile back then. ”
Hostile Half-Elf and Wolf Link's mind turned, "You served in Longyan Fort?"
Now it's Orlando's turn to be curious, "How do you know?"
"Being a half-elf, but wandering outside the elven tribe instead of staying in the elven tribe, means that you have chosen the human side, or should you say that you have chosen to live with humans. And the wolf is not only a magical creature, but also a mount that is kept by the orcs as a family. Isn't that obvious? I can't think of any other place besides Longyan Castle where you could be enemies. "Link spread his hands, it's not difficult at all, okay, it's basically a guess.
"The druids have disappeared with the self-sealing of the column, why are you hanging out alone?" Orlando has not seen a single druid since the invasion of the undead, is it because of the children of nature that the sealing of the column has been lifted?
"No, I'm a special case. "Although they are old acquaintances, from friend to foe as their faction and identity change, Jafar will not tell Orlando why he has not been able to return to the Protected Lands unless he has permission from the Children of Nature.
"Since it's an old acquaintance, it saves a lot of inconvenience. Link clapped his hands, relieved not to explain to the half-elves how he had managed to get a druid.
"You're making magic weapons again?" Orlando glanced at the open display case door as he entered, and now the contents had changed.
Link graciously admits that he wanted to make a few other magic weapons. It's because the last jewelry and clothes were too formal, and they didn't reflect the unique abilities of the craftsman and the children of nature.
Orlando thinks it's too showy to be necessarily a good thing.
"Time is running out......"
"Huh?" Link's words were clueless, and Orlando couldn't figure out what he meant by not having enough time.
"I've been in contact with Gonzalez, and he says that the undead haven't moved much on the border lately, and the Sea of Storms has receded quite a bit. I always thought something big might happen to Cronberg......" Link was a little worried when he heard that the border was fine.
"Foresight?" Orlando asked tentatively.
"It's just a personal feeling. ”
"There is no difference between the clergyman's intuition and foreknowledge, and if you think something is going to happen, that's pre-refinement. Orlando's reminder made Link can't help but pace back and forth.
What should I do, I only have a few magic props at hand, and he can't leave yet.
[You idiot, won't you use teleportation to transfer the magic props made to Valolet?] Lorelei couldn't stand it anymore and reminded Link in his consciousness.
"yes! Why didn't I think of that!" Link clenched his fists and high-fived, waking up the dreamer with a word! Teleportation is a spell that can be teleported as long as there are exact magic coordinates. (To be continued.) )
