Chapter 19: Orbeck of Perheim
While Nameless was talking to Anli and Horace, Chen Muye crept behind the Raven Mage, and then pushed it off the cliff with both hands.
Fighting monsters, soldiers are not bloody, and they are not chilling.
Ignoring the crow man who was babbling on the side, Chen Muye came to the bridge, looked at the open space below, and his heart jumped sideways.
Landing on the ground and bending his knees, Chen Muye directly knelt on the ground with a thud: "Damn, I know that it is not a cliff below, and it is still a little exciting to jump directly." ”
Walking along the trail and coming to the cave under the bridge, Chen Muye used the combined "Flame Sword" to cut melons and vegetables to solve the two corpse dogs, and then found the "Moen Ring" and the "Karim Braille Sacred Book" in the cave.

Back on the side of the road, Nameless was sitting by the campfire with his eyes closed and meditating.
"I'm back, let's go." Chen Muye came to Nameless's side, "What about the two of them?" Let's go? ”
Nameless got up and picked up the hammer: "One of them is named Anli and the other is called Horace, and the two of them have gone to the secluded church first." ”
Nameless followed behind Chen Muye, and the two walked out of the roadside half of the village.
Leaving the halfway side of the road, down the hillside is the Penalty Forest. The Punishment Forest is called a forest, but it is actually just a swamp with trees growing on it.
Chen Muye stood at the top of the slope, admiring the scenery of the Punishment Forest with Nameless, and he was planning the route.
The swamp of the Punishment Forest, near the edge of the hillside where Chen Muye and Nameless are located, gathers a large group of living corpse monsters holding tree trunks, and when they encounter them, they will only hold the trunk and attack you in a straight line. They are often accompanied by corpse dogs.
The terrain of the swamp is relatively open, with hills and camps in it.
Here you will encounter a new type of monster, red-eyed, large living corpses with wooden crosses, fierce attacks, and dodge, which can be regarded as the elite monsters of this area. There is also a bug with a unique mushroom-like appearance, which emits a poisonous mist when slashed and killed, and although it is weak, it must be carefully avoided.
There are a lot of small crabs in the swamp, and they are not a problem. In addition to this, there are two oversized giant crabs.
Cancer's attack methods are varied, including giant pincer slapping, jetting water dragons, overall pounces, etc., which are more tricky to fight.
On the opposite side of the swamp, that is, on the edge of the swamp opposite Chen Muye and Nameless Yao was a small part of the Flange Fortress, whether it was a magician or a crystallized old man, they all had to go there.
"Let's go, let's go find a magician first." Chen Muye clarified his thoughts and said to Nameless.
The two of them descended the hillside and were confronted by two living corpses holding tree trunks.
The living corpse picked up the trunk and rushed straight towards the two of them.
Chen Muye and Nameless easily dodged the attack with just one side, although one of them freed the two living corpses at once.
Continuing down to the bottom of the hillside, instead of choosing to cross the swamp, Chen Muye set off along the edge of the swamp towards the campfire camp in the Punishment Forest with Namelessness.
Nameless suddenly asked Chen Muye: "What's in the secluded church?" Is Eldridge the salary king I'm looking for? ”
"What's in the Church?" Chen Muye touched his chin, "Of course, there are hall masters and sect masters in the church, and the secluded church is naturally the secluded hall master and the secluded sect master." ”
"Just kidding, just kidding. The secluded church houses fallen clergy and the salaried king Eldridge. ”
"That's right, Eldridge is one of the salary kings we're looking for."
"That Eldredge, who used to be a priest, but who has been eating people, is disgusting. In the end, the fat one followed like a pig, and turned into a puddle of mud flowing everywhere, and was confined in a secluded church. ”
"It's ridiculous to say, your world seeks the Salary King to spread the fire, but the key to becoming the Salary King is to only look at the strength of the power, not your own character. As long as the firewood is enough to burn, huh. ”
Chen Muye couldn't help but complain about the thoughts in his heart to Wuming. As a child who grew up under the red flag, the behavior of the salary kings sacrificing themselves is as admirable as a border guard, but Eldredge's behavior makes people want to burn him at the stake and guillotine with his own hands.
Nameless was silent and didn't say anything. Is it right to demand personal sacrifice in order to perpetuate the flame? Is it right to sacrifice more innocent people in order to become a wage king in order to perpetuate the flames? The flame will be extinguished without firewood, but will the world be destroyed?
With questions and thoughts, Nameless and Chen Muye came to the camp in the Punishment Forest.
The two of them sat around the bonfire for a while.
The camp was on the high ground of the swamp, and in the swamp below the camp, one of the only two giant crabs in the Punishment Forest was "watching" Chen Muye and Nameless below.
Looking at this huge crab, Chen Muye began to think about it.
Can you eat such a big crab? Is it tasty? How do you cook it when it's so big? How to eat? Stewed? What kind of sauce to go with?
Wiping the saliva that almost flowed from his mouth, Chen Muye said to Nameless: "Next, we will rush to the opposite side in one go." ”
The two of them stepped on the rocks on the edge of the high ground and descended into the moor, while the giant crab crawled sideways towards them on eight legs.
"Rush Rush!" Chen Muye ran quickly, and his nameless movements were not slow, following Chen Muye closely. The Crab hung sideways from behind them, occasionally slapping them with its giant pincers.
It wasn't until the two of them landed that the cancer slowed down. It didn't know why it didn't come forward, but it just circled around the edge of the land twice before reluctantly leaving.
Head all the way to the left and climb the stone steps into the fortress. Chen Muye led Nameless to the staircase leading to the third floor where the magician was located and the fork to the location of the boss crystallized old man. The living corpses on the road were not the enemies of Chen Muye and Nameless at all, and with magic and sledgehammers, Chen Muye and Nameless easily solved the monsters that stood in their way.
Ascend the stairs to the third level of the fortress. A large desk with a few scrolls in a mess. Next to the desk is a wooden box full of scrolls, while on the other side are two rows of cabinets full of scrolls. A masked man was reading a scroll by the light of an oil lamp on his desk.
"Hello." Chen Muye stepped forward.
"Huh? It's really surprising, I didn't expect anyone to visit. Is there anything wrong with you? You can see it, this is my study. If it's okay, I want to continue reading quietly. The man turned his head to look at Chen Muye and Nameless, and then turned back to look at the scroll on the table.
"I know you're a magician, and I want to ask you to teach me magic." Chen Muye made a request.
"Interesting."
"That's right, I'm a magician, and I can teach you something.
But you don't want to ask me to work for free, do you? Or maybe you want to say that someone next to you is a hero and ask me to work for free? You and you shouldn't be this kind of man, right? "The magician is a bit weird.
"Naturally, I won't let you work for free, I will give the soul of the corresponding value." Chen Muye replied patiently.
"Very well, since you are not, you have to promise me one thing, and I can teach you magic.
Bring me the knowledge, the scroll that records the mysteries of magic.
How is it? Can it be done? The magician made a request.
"Okay, we'll bring it to you if we find it." Chen Muye gave a promise.
"Good. You're not stupid either, you should understand the weight of your commitments. I am Orbeck of Piheim. I'll teach you magic. The one next to you, the ashes without fire, can learn if you want to. Hmph, the ashes without fire, imitating the academy......"
Chen Muye took out a return bone fragment: "Then please go to the fire transmission sacrifice ground, and when I find the magic scroll, I will go there and hand it to you." ”
Orbeck accepted the bone fragment and did not leave immediately: "Okay, when I finish cleaning up my study first, I will go to the fire sacrifice ground." ”
Chen Muye nodded, and then went downstairs with Nameless. Next, it's time to find the Crystallized Old Man.
