Chapter 103: Before Leaving (Fifth Update)

Zuo Si was completely ignorant of the chaos, conflict, and secret war caused by that box.

He didn't even try to open the box to see what was inside.

Since solving the last hidden danger, he has lived a life of "otaku" who does not go out of the door and does not step out of the second door.

Every day, except for a visit to Elsha's Mage Tower in the morning, the rest of the time basically stays in the hotel room, learning the magic of the second and third rings recorded in the five spell books in his hand.

In just a few days, he has learned several three-ring spells, including [Stinky Cloud Technique], [Group Mage Armor], [Human Immobilization Technique], [Protective Energy Damage], and [Acceleration Technique].

He also made some of these spells into cards for the Brigade Mage.

Some of the magic that may be used so often that I even made three or four in one go.

Anyway, whether it's a magic card or a creature card, the maximum number of cards you can hold is four, and it doesn't matter if you don't exceed that number.

Anything more, and "Legacy" will show a failed crafting.

But the price is that the mana in the mana pool is always at its bottom.

Even if he kept drawing from Elsha's mage tower reserves, he was still in a state of "making ends meet".

What's more, Zuo Si also upgraded the leopard.

[Creature Card: Beast - Large Ferocious Panther]

[LV3 Green Card (Upgradeable)]

[Card Quality: Normal]

[Effect, summon a large ferocious leopard to serve you.]

It has more strength, agility and physique than the average leopard, as well as hard bones and thick fur with strong defense, as well as a more ferocious personality and some special skills.

Special Ability - Ambush: The Large Ferocious Panther is the best hunter, silently approaching its prey and unleashing a fatal blow from behind, biting off the opponent's neck.

Special Ability - Fatal Bites: Wherever a large ferocious leopard has been bitten, it may bleed until the target goes into shock or dies.

Special Ability - Fast Jumping: With its strong limbs and balanced tail, the large ferocious leopard can move between mountains, canyons, and cliffs without any terrain restrictions.

Special Ability - Berserk: When the large ferocious leopard is enraged, it has a certain chance to enter a berserk state, increasing its strength and constitution attributes by an additional six points, and is immune to all charm, immobilization, and control spell effects.

[To use this card, you need to pay 5 green mana, or 5 universal mana]

[When the summoned leopard is killed, the card automatically enters the graveyard to wait for rebirth for three days]

There is no doubt that after being promoted by two levels, the big cat is already the third-highest summon creature in Zuo Si's hands after [Large Stone Elemental] and [Alaina of Flame].

Even a heavily armored soldier could be thrown to the ground by it.

Just when Zuo Si was hesitating whether to use the remaining mana to upgrade creature cards or make some more magic cards, the soldier who pushed the door in through the corridor outside interrupted his thoughts.

"Master, Bernard has just sent someone to inform him that he has purchased all the goods. Early tomorrow morning, the caravan will be waiting for us at the north gate of the city. The soldier reported bluntly. …

"Early tomorrow morning? We can finally leave the turbulent city of Port Carlin. ”

Zuo Si put away the cards in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he could feel that the atmosphere in the city had become more and more tense in recent days.

Just a few nearby streets, you can often see some fresh blood stains on the ground and walls.

Occasionally, after dark, you can hear the sounds of a fight nearby, and the screams of someone who has been injured.

Living in such a place, Zuo Si didn't even have a sense of security at all.

He had never been more eager to have a mage tower of his own, to keep all danger out.

"Do you have anything else to buy before you go?" The soldier asked cautiously.

"Uh-huh—go buy some fresh meat, eggs, vegetables, and fruits, and put them all in that empty dimensional bag. Also, go to the Magic Goods Market and buy an [Endless Water Bottle]. I don't want to drink water that is in a wooden barrel and the sun is shining on it for days. ”

Zuo Si quickly gave instructions.

Of course, in addition to making himself a little more comfortable during the trip, he also did this for the other reason to eliminate all factors that could lead to illness.

After all, with the terrible viruses and bacteria he carried in his body, if he suddenly broke out during the journey, the entire caravan, including people and livestock, would be wiped out.

And a healthy diet can greatly improve the body's immunity.

On top of that, the water that is poured into the barrels is not guaranteed to be clean and hygienic during long journeys.

In addition, the high temperature environment is particularly prone to microbial growth, and the devil knows how many bacteria and viruses will be contained in it.

At this time, it is very necessary to spend a little five or six thousand gold coins to buy an [Endless Water Kettle] that is directly connected to the water elemental plane.

The soldier immediately nodded: "Understood!" I'm going to go shopping. Oh, I almost forgot to mention it. The young lady Paladin, who had come to trouble us the other day, had been in the hall downstairs since last night. I noticed that she had a large bag with what appeared to be a sleeping bag for long trips. ”

"What? Is that the young paladin named Aroline? Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"That's right! That's her. I think she's coming for you. ”

The soldier simply voiced his guess.

"Gan! What the hell is this guy trying to do? Isn't it just killing a group of Hallette's men, and it's not an innocent civilian, so you need to be so stubborn? Zuo Si held his forehead and complained helplessly. Also, didn't the older paladin who came with her come? ”

"The elder paladin named Agor didn't show up, and Arowline was the only one the whole time. I guess you'd better talk to her in person. Otherwise, it cannot be ruled out that this Miss Paladin will follow all the way. ”

With that, the soldier saluted, then took the dimensional bag and about 5,000 gold coins, turned and walked out of the room, and disappeared into the corner of the staircase.

"Talk to a stubborn, dead-eyed paladin? Forget it! I don't have masochistic tendencies yet......"

Zuo Si ignored the soldier's suggestion, closed the door directly and continued to practice the technique of "casting spells without materials".

With continuous research and practice, he felt that he had almost mastered the ropes.

It won't be long before you'll be able to say goodbye to all that messy spellcasting material.

Of course, the so-called "casting of spells" is actually "free" of those ordinary materials that are not important.

If a spell requires very valuable materials.

For example, if a gem is worth hundreds or even thousands of gold coins, it will not be exempt from the "Cast Spell Exemption" technique.

The real effect of its implementation is that you don't have to waste time collecting and preparing all kinds of messy things, and you don't have to stuff all kinds of strange things into your mouth......

This is also the most important reason and motivation for most mages to learn "casting spells and avoiding materials".

You must know that except for "pica", most normal people can't stand swallowing live spiders all day long, stuffing dried feces, asphalt and other things into their mouths.
