"Damn! What did this guy do in Vermes? ”

After cutting off the visual sharing with the manticore, Zuo Si felt bad all over the place.

Because the movement made by the red dragon was so great that even he didn't know how to end it.

Especially for monsters of different races, factions, and values, it was clearly impossible for Vermez to surrender to her and volunteer to join this vast army of evil just because she was an adult red dragon.

Quite the opposite!

Either they have ulterior motives of their own, or the psychic abilities of the strange creatures are strong enough to control the leaders of these monster tribes at the same time.

The thought of the various complications, conspiracies, and stakes that might exist in it gave Zuo Si a headache.

You must know that he originally planned to use poisoning, necromantic magic rituals, and the night raid ability of the Shadow Legion, combined with his magic power, to directly stage a big killing.

Use the speed to cut through the mess and clean up the entire army of monsters.

When the time comes, he can directly take Vermes out of this place of right and wrong, and the situation can slowly calm down.

But now it seems that I am simply thinking too much.

Especially those snake people with strong magical talents, who are by no means comparable to low-IQ creatures such as goblins, orcs, and gnolls.

"How? What do you see? Myratma hasn't been conquered by an army of monsters, has it? Aroline hurriedly leaned over and asked nervously.

Zuo Si shook his head slightly: "Not for the time being, but it's coming soon."

I saw the monsters using human captives to cut down trees and build all sorts of siege engines.

It looks like they will launch a full-scale assault on the city in two or three days at most.

At present, there are not many highly trained soldiers in Myratma, and most of them are young and middle-aged civilians who have been temporarily conscripted.

I have serious doubts that these people will instantly collapse and turn around and flee when they are attacked violently.

In addition to this, I also found snake people and lizard people.

In addition, many monster tribes will have a small number of priests, druyin, and shamans......

This means that enemies will have a significant percentage of arcane and divine spellcasters. ”

"What? Doesn't that mean that the way forward of the caravan has been sealed? ”

Businessman Bernard's eyes widened with nervous and frightened expressions.

"It's not just about sealing down, they're preparing to attack and take over the city. To be honest, I didn't expect this to be in such a difficult situation after less than a third of the journey. ”

Zuo Si made a joke in a slightly self-deprecating tone.

If it weren't for the fact that Vermes still had a strange thing made by himself, he would have wanted to give up this red dragon directly and choose to take a long detour.

"I think we should try to get into Myratma and help the city fend off the monster army." Arolyn proposed, clenching the sword in her hand.

But Bernard immediately shook his head and retorted: "No! When pigs fly! If Myratma is indeed surrounded, then the caravan's crossing of the Yins River now is a self-defeating act of seeking death. ”

"Mr. Employer is right. There are still so many monsters on the south bank of the river, so there is no need to say what the north bank will look like. Moreover, it is our duty to keep the caravan safe along its path, not to die for your so-called noble purpose. ”…

The captain of the mercenary also stood up unequivocally to express his opposition.

Not only that, but the eyes in which he and his men looked at the paladin were full of naked and undisguised disgust.

Like most adventurers who make a living in the land, mercenary mercenaries hate these paladins who like to meddle and preach from the moral high ground.

Even those slaves who had previously stated that they wanted to worship the god of suffering, Yinermat, jumped back on the spot, saying that they should not get involved in such a dangerous thing.

Seeing that everyone was rejecting themselves and unwilling to join the great cause of justice and kindness, young Arolyn immediately trembled with anger, and tears even kept rolling in her eyes.

Suffering!

Sad!

Grievance!

Not understood!

For the first time, she felt the cruelty of reality and how difficult it was for the cause she had fought for all her life.

No wonder Ago, the "senior" who is responsible for guiding and teaching himself, has emphasized it more than once.

The most important thing as a paladin is never the passion for a just cause, but how to stick to one's heart and bottom line in the face of adversity.

Even if you encounter great difficulties and resistance, don't give up easily.

Just when this girl in her early twenties was about to go alone to live and die with the city on the other side of the river, Zuo Si suddenly smiled and said, "There is no need for so many people. It would be good for the caravan to stay on the south bank of the Yinsi River. When it gets dark, I'll let the Manticore land quietly in the city with a small team. ”

"Are you really going to take the risk? That's an army of tens of thousands of monsters, and a terrifying dragon that can bring them together. Bernard asked in a tone of uncertainty that was not very sure.

"Because I don't have a choice, and neither do the caravan.

Only by resolving the crisis here will we be able to continue north to our next destination, Zazespo.

Don't worry too much, this time it's complicated and dangerous, but I'm not out of the question. ”

After saying this, Zuo Si no longer paid attention to the others, but got into the carriage specially prepared for himself, and began to prepare for the actions after nightfall.

Although Aroline tried to catch up and ask for something, she was stopped by the loyal soldiers.

The rest of the people simply cleaned up the monster corpses around them, and quickly set off to find a relatively secluded place near the water source to set up camp.

When the manticore flies back, it feasts on the corpses of the goblins, orcs, and gnolls before returning to its master.

On the other side, Zuo Si, who was hiding in the carriage, had already summoned the "Legacy" and received one of the rewards for completing the mission.

He didn't hesitate and used this gacha straight away.

Moment!

A brand new card appeared in the palm of your hand.

【Magic Card: Scourge of Spells】

[LV5 Blue Card (Non-Upgradeable)]

[Card Quality: Precious]

[Effect: When this card is activated, it will be centered on the traveling mage, causing a terrible chaotic magic storm.]

All creatures affected by the storm will take damage from the Magic Storm until the storm stops or escapes the radius. …

Moreover, all spells cast and effective within the range of the Chaos Magic Storm will become completely different from normal due to the impact.

Low-level spells can suddenly become as terrifyingly destructive as high-level magic, and high-level magic can become as insignificant as low-level magic.

On top of that, there are extremes such as random teleportation, random summoning, and random changes to the race, gender, age, and physiognomy of all creatures, including yourself.

The power and duration of the Chaos Storm depends on the number and level of Magic Cards in the Graveyard that are participating in the linkage.

The higher the level and the greater the number of cards involved, the greater the scope and power of the storm, and the more violent the random fluctuations will be.

[To use this card, you need to pay 20 blue mana or 20 universal mana.]

Each additional card in the graveyard that participates in the crossover must pay a fee equal to the amount necessary to use the magic card.

[When the chaotic magic storm ends, the card automatically enters the graveyard to wait for rebirth for ten days]

"Scourge of spells? This thing seems to have a similar effect to Crazy Magic Waves. However, the scope of the impact and the super-large area killing effect produced are far from being comparable to the latter. ”

Zuo Si looked at the new card in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

No doubt!

This magic card was the most powerful of all the cards he had.

However, the price of use is not small.

If you don't have enough mana in storage, you won't be able to exert the true power of [Spell Calamity].

Putting away the only LV5 card, Zuo Si set his sights on the changed taskbar again.

[The total number of cards held reaches 60 (1 card draw is rewarded, and the number of cards currently held: 55)]

[Craft a Treasure Card (Reward a Gacha)]

Obviously, the first task caused the total number of cards in hand to increase dramatically due to Zuo Si's crazy efforts to make cards of the magic he had learned during this time, and some of the spells that he often used were even four in one work.

It seems that it will not take long to break through the sixty mark.

As for the treasure card, it is a new ability obtained after the traveling mage class level is upgraded to LV5.

To put it simply, it is to make various magic items into cards and save them, and restore them when needed.

Although it means to take off your pants and fart.

Magical items that can actually be crafted into cards will be free from the environmental constraints they were otherwise subjected to.

For example, some magic items can only be used in the environment of the Feron Net.

Once you leave this environment and go to another world, you will not be able to use it normally due to changes in your surroundings.

Now make that magic item into a treasure card, and it will become part of the power of the traveling mage, operating in the same way that the traveling mage manipulates energy.

No matter how the surrounding magical environment changes, it can still be used as if it were in the forgotten realm of Faeron.

It can even be used as a gift or reward for others.

Even if one day the traveling mage leaves this world.

The person who holds the magic item of the treasure card can still enjoy the convenience of this magic item.

Of course, the magical world in which the Tower of the Floating City is located has many similarities with Faeron, and magical items, potions, and scrolls are basically universal.

Zuo Si wasn't very interested in spending a lot of mana to make treasure cards.

Quite the opposite!

He would prefer to make more magic cards to increase the lethality of the [Spell Calamity] Chaos Magic Storm.
