Chapter 67: Exchange (continued)
[The first update, today's three changes, Lao Yue began to repay the chapters owed before!
Merlin sat in the carriage, although his eyes were closed, but his mental power spread out, watching the thief leader Keane's every move, once the other party made any abnormal moves, Merlin could guarantee that he would be killed instantly.
However, he has already given the temptation to "become a spellcaster", and believes that Keane cannot refuse. Moreover, Keane does have the conditions to become a spellcaster.
Merlin had long been aware that anyone who could see the strange posture of the mysterious relief should have a spiritual power that was different from ordinary people, which was one of the most important conditions for becoming a spellcaster.
As long as the spiritual power reaches the conditions of the caster, then you can try to use the spiritual power to simulate the spell model in the sea of consciousness, and once you succeed, you can become a spellcaster.
Keane, the leader of the thieves, has such conditions, and his mental power is even greater than when Merlin was before he became a spellcaster.
With a spell model in exchange for three mysterious reliefs, plus the ability to resolve the crisis of the entire fleet, this transaction is quite worthwhile.
Otherwise, even if Merlin could kill the leader of the thieves, Keane, he would not be able to deal with the remaining thousands of thieves, especially those who had practiced the strange posture on the reliefs taught by Keane, who were even more powerful than the heavily armored knights of Old Wilson, and were very difficult to deal with.
Soon, the thieves came to a large valley, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and very inhabitable.
In the valley, some simple wooden houses have been built, and many large and small caves have been dug, and there are old people, women and children, who are constantly busy in the valley, and it looks like a thriving ordinary small village.
As the thieves returned to the valley in droves, many women stepped forward and watched the crowd to see if their husbands were well.
This is a thief's lair, more like a peaceful, peaceful little village.
"How's that? I've spent five years building it all over my hands!"
Looking at the busy scene below the valley, Keane, who was in front of Merlin, had a look of pride on his face.
"It's not bad, those elite thief knights, whose physical fitness is comparable to that of first-class elemental swordsmen, are they all taught by you to the posture on the relief?"
What Merlin values most is the four or five hundred unique thieves, whose physical fitness is comparable to that of a first-level elemental swordsman, to know that even the Firebird Legion at its peak is only more than a thousand elemental swordsmen above the first level.
Kean looked at Merlin, his eyes showed a hint of depth, and he said in a low voice: "Yes, those people were carefully selected by me, I only taught them one set of postures, and they can only be cultivated to the level of a first-level elemental swordsman." And those who are more talented and loyal, I will teach them two sets of postures, so that their physical fitness can be comparable to that of second-level elemental swordsmen. It is thanks to them that the Hurricane Thieves can run rampant in this area, and no one can compete with us. ”
Merlin nodded, these rabble, who had almost no equipment to speak of, could be invincible in this area just by relying on those five hundred thieves who were comparable to first-class elemental swordsmen, even if they were heavily armored knights who were carefully trained like old Wilson, they were no match.
"Do you know where they come from?"
Merlin continued.
Keane frowned, then shook his head and said: "I also got these reliefs by accident, but I know that they are probably products of the Morta Empire, and I don't know the specifics." ”
The Morta Empire, which has always been a very mysterious country, unified the entire continent, but then overturned overnight, and no one seems to know how such a huge empire collapsed?
What's more, now that Merlin saw these reliefs, as well as the five hundred powerful thief knights, he had more thoughts in his heart.
These reliefs are a product of the period of the Morta Empire, if the ordinary soldiers of the Morta Empire all practice the posture on the reliefs, and have the strength comparable to the first-level elemental swordsman, the second-level elemental swordsman and even the third-level elemental swordsman, and thousands of soldiers are comparable to the powerful elemental swordsman, then it does not seem so unbelievable for the Morta Empire to unify the entire continent.
However, such a powerful country, even so powerful that it is unimaginable, why could it be overturned in such a short period of time? There are even many historical rumors that the Molda Empire collapsed almost overnight.
What happened, what forces caused the Morta Empire to collapse overnight?
"Come with me, the relief is where I live. ”
Merlin shook his head slightly, shook off all the mysteries about the collapse of the Morta Empire in his mind, and immediately followed behind Keane.
The place where Keane lives is a huge cave, and there are still traces of artificial excavation in it, and the outside environment seems very quiet, no one approaches, it seems that Keane has made arrangements, and there are only Merlin and Keane here.
"You may be seated!"
Once Merlin had sat down, Keane turned and entered a room in the cave, and came out a little later, but by the time he came out, he had three more reliefs on his hands.
Keane placed the relief on the stone table for Merlin to look at.
"Sure enough, it's the same kind of relief!"
Merlin's eyes flashed with a glint as he picked up one of the reliefs and stroked it lightly with his hand, his gaze became blurred, and he hallucinated again. In his eyes, he seemed to see some strange postures begin to appear on the reliefs, which were many different from the postures that Merlin had practiced at the beginning.
This time he fell into the "hallucination" for a short time, and with Merlin's current huge mental power, he could wake up from the "hallucination" at any time.
"As part of the deal, this relief is given to you. ”
Merlin also handed the relief in his hand to Keane.
Kean's eyes narrowed slightly, but he was not in a hurry to pick up the relief on the table, but stared at Merlin with extremely eager eyes and said, "Merlin, you said that you can make me a spellcaster......
In Kean's heart, even if there is an extra relief, it is possible that after practice, he will be comparable to a fourth-level elemental swordsman, crossing a large realm, and his strength will be increased exponentially, which does not seem to be comparable to his desire to become a spellcaster.
"To become a spellcaster, the most important thing is mental power and spell model, you already have mental power, as for the spell model, ......"
Merlin pondered for a while, took out the spell model of the whirlwind spell in the spell codex of the old man Aita spell, and said lightly: "Spell model, I have a spell model of the whirlwind spell here, it is a zero-level spell, if you can simulate the spell model into the sea of knowledge, then you can become a spellcaster!"
"Spell model!"
Keane's gaze was staring at the spell model on the table, and even his voice became a little trembling because of excitement.
