"Maybe it's days, maybe months, maybe years." Zur said.

Hearing the long time of a few years, the apprentice showed a relaxed expression, and he asked:

"Are you interested in coming to my secret space?"

"Oh?" Zur was intrigued by the apprentice's words, this seemingly less powerful human seemed to be hiding something very interesting, "Your secret space? Interesting, take me now. ”

"Of course you can, next I will try to link your consciousness, only by completing the link, can you be brought into that space, and the process of linking will make you feel some discomfort, you don't resist."

Zur made a gesture of please.

Soon, the apprentice initiates the Matrix Consciousness Link to Zur and brings him into the Matrix Consciousness space.

In the Matrix Consciousness Space, the flow rate of time is not equal to reality, so even if it takes a lot of time to learn the Steel Stone Demon, as long as such learning is carried out in the Matrix Consciousness Space, it will not take too long in reality.

When night fell, the two broke away from the matrix consciousness space and opened their eyes.

At this time, the apprentice received a hint from the Nightmare Mark:

"You have successfully mastered the purple skill [Steel Stone Demon X]!"

"This skill will occupy one of your empty slots in the Combat Skill Slot, and the number of remaining slots in the Combat Skill Slot is currently 2."

【Iron Stone Demon X】

[Rarity: Purple.] 】

[Effect: Using some metal as a casting medium, you can summon a stone demon from it, and a certain amount of metal raw materials are required to create a stone demon, and the stone demon made from it will inherit the characteristics of the metal medium and exert a special effect in battle. 】

[Casting Medium: Metal.] 】

[Cast Cost: 50% of Max Energy, 50% of Max Health.] 】

[Cooldown: None.] 】

[Evaluation: When those alchemists tried to violate the laws of matter and delusionally realized their dream of turning stones into gold, the necromancer found another way and created the Iron Stone Demon with the way of balance. Whether the Iron Golem is strong or not depends not on magic, but on the medium. The more powerful the metal medium, the more powerful it can be forged into a powerful steel stone demon. 】

At this time, after coming out of the matrix consciousness space, Zur's eyes on the apprentice were suddenly full of appreciation, and his favorability for the apprentice also increased from "neutral" to "friendly". He even asked, "Interested in becoming a necromancer?" I don't know how long we spent that strange time, but your understanding is beyond my imagination, and as long as you are willing to join the Rasma Sect and become my disciple, in less than 10 years, I guarantee that you will become an entry-level necromancer. ”

The apprentice smiled and declined Zur's invitation: "I'm sorry, the barrier to entry for necromancers is too high and time-consuming, and I still have things to do, so, goodbye." ”

Seeing this, Zur did not hold back, but smiled and waved his hand, and said:

"Young man, you are very talented, but it is a pity that I missed out on a genius necromancer like you. But I still bless you, and I hope that when I see you again, you will be even better. ”

After some pleasantries, the two sides took their leave.

At this time, it was getting late, Su Hao and the apprentice came to the Rogue tavern, ready to look for Paladin, but found that the latter was sitting at a round table again, drinking alone, just looking at the empty wine bottles he visited in front of him, he knew that this guy had drunk a lot, and what was worrying was that his eyes were lost and dead, full of despair.

Su Hao and the apprentice glanced at each other, knowing that no matter what they said, there was nothing they could do, so they could only leave silently.

They knew exactly why Paladin was like this, for Zur had revealed to him a bloody fact: that as long as there was an evil cavern, a 'corpse could be on fire' again. ”

Evil is like a weed, even if it is temporarily removed, it will grow again, which is undoubtedly too cruel for Paladin, who believes in the virtues of knighthood and is dedicated to fighting evil.

He needed time to drink and sort out his bad mood.

The two left the Rogue Tavern and returned to the hotel, where they stayed directly.

As the night passed, the two of them prepared to visit the military commander of Rogue's camp: Kasha, according to the information given by Akara earlier.

As the supreme military governor of the Rog camp, Kasha resides in the Rog headquarters on the east side of the camp. It was a headquarters site, but it was a simple hall of granite and hardwood, which served as offices, meetings, and fortresses, guarding the entrance to the street, close to the fortified ramparts. If the enemy succeeds in breaking through the ramparts and storming the camp, this command will bear the brunt of the attack. Lady Kasha will personally lead the elite Rog archers to guard the hall in a brutal street battle against the invaders!

Su Hao and the apprentice came to the Rogge headquarters, took off their disguises, and returned to their original appearance. When he saw that the comers were the two heroes who contributed first in the defense of the city, Rogge, who was guarding the door, showed admiration on his face, and immediately expressed his respect and gave him permission.

After receiving permission, the two pushed the door open and were confronted by the heroic Lady Kashya, who was now staring at a map with her back to the door. When she heard the squeak of the doorshaft turning, she turned her head, a faint smile bloomed on her face, and said straight to the point:

"You are welcome to our glorious shed. I know that you have come to challenge evil and give us a chance to reclaim the homeland left by our ancestors, and you have proven yourself in the defense of the city and the destruction of the evil caverns. ”

"That said, you must know that. Akara may be our spiritual leader, but I am the one who directs the Rog's actions in battle. To gain further of my trust, you also need to accept a great and honorable commission. ”

This is Kashya's style of speaking, a simple and polite opening sentence followed by a sharp, direct, calm, and unmediated dialogue. It also has to do with her role, as the supreme military governor of Camp Rogg, she has to develop this style of speaking and acting.

Su Hao smiled faintly: "Is there anything you need us to serve, please tell me." ”

Kasha looked back at the map, then pulled an arrow made of birch wood from the pouch on the wall, pointing it to the center of a large area marked with the words "Cold Plains".

"I hope that, with your help, destroy the 'Camp of the Fallen Demons' in the middle of the Icy Plains, and kill the most powerful of the Fallen Demons: 'Bishibosh'."
