I don't know how long it took, staring intently at the silver lines on the ground, trying to firmly engrave the patterns and magic movements in her mind, the girl was startled by the sudden voice next to her:

"You can't comprehend the true meaning of magic by memorizing these appearances by rote."

The brown-robed magician with a blank face handed over the magic prop in his hand:

"And snooping on privately constructed magic arrays is quite taboo, didn't your teacher teach you?"

"My teacher...... It's dead. And how much should I pay you? ”

Hearing this answer, Vasilyeh Kolchak moved his lower lip.

After being silent for a long time, he shook his head: "It's just a magic prop that can be modified casually, and you don't need to charge money for a few minutes." ”

"As you requested, I've increased the coverage of this artifact to cover an area of about three miles at the expense of some immunity, but the price of this is that it now needs a steady infusion of mana to maintain this effect."

"An infusion of continuous and stable mana? Wouldn't that have to be worn with you all the time......"

"I really don't know what your teacher taught you, and didn't even instill in you the slightest concept of magic array?"

The brown robe magic with helplessness written on his face finally couldn't help but complain again, and began to popularize the knowledge that every beginner in magic from another world had to memorize in his mind.

From the common types and basic uses of magic arrays, to the types and qualities of materials selected, as well as the points and operation procedures that must be paid attention to when arranging......

Vasilye Kolchak spent the rest of the day explaining the contents of the magic array to Shi Junjun, realizing that this was a good opportunity to learn magic from another world, Shi Junjun naturally didn't want to miss every word that the brown-robed magician said.

It's just that as time goes on, more and more terms begin to appear in the former's discourse, presumably magical jargon.

And the brown-robed magician, who spoke with great interest, obviously did not have any idea of pausing to answer Shi Junjun's questions, which gave the girl who listened to the book of heaven a headache.

So before the brown-robed magician could catch his breath and speak again, the girl, who was already sleepy, casually found an excuse and got up and fled from the room.

Seeing the girl running out of his mansion through the pile of debris, a manservant entered the room and began to clean it, while Vasilye Kolchak, who was still unsatisfied, muttered to himself beside him:

"When did the handsome and dashing vice president of the Portugalette branch of the Wizards Guild become so unattractive to explain the course of the magic circle......"

"Uh...... To be honest, I don't know if you like to hear it. ”

"Say."

"Your lectures never seem to be engaging......"

"Get out."

Compared with Vasilyeh Kolchak, who was in a bad mood, Shi Junjun was quite relaxed after walking out of the magician's mansion.

Aside from the fact that she didn't have to listen to the former's thoughts, she almost effortlessly procured all the materials needed to build the magic array that could provide the source of magic for the enhanced version of "The Witch's Shelter" at the material vendor who had purchased all of her hamster fur.

And according to the description of the brown-robed magician Vasilyey Kolchak, building a magic circle that can provide a continuous and stable source of magic power for the magic item is "simply an entry-level pediatric level".

With her magical savvy, this difficulty is not a sprinkler.

Let her think about what she should do next......

The girl who happened to come to the mouth of a dark alley suddenly stopped, frowned, sniffed, and looked inside.

This is...... Does it smell like blood?

Each time she overdrafted her magic, she not only enhanced her physical fitness and mental strength, but also greatly improved the sharpness of her five senses, including her sense of smell.

Not so long ago, she could only smell the stench of the stinky gutters in these alleys, but now she could make out the smell of bleeding.

Without turning his head, he could confirm that the enchanted greatsword on his back was pulling out the place as soon as he stretched out his hand, and the thumb of his left hand gently twisted the ring on his index finger that was used as a casting medium.

The alleys under the shade of buildings on both sides were dimly lit, and no matter how wide Shi Junjun's eyes were, she couldn't see what was inside.

But that inexplicable instinct told her that the danger of stepping into this alley might be far greater than she expected.

Fortunately, the hotel that served as her temporary residence was only a few hundred meters away from here in a straight line, and even if there was a strong enemy in this alley that she couldn't deal with, Wangcai, as a strong backup, could arrive at the first time.

But in this case, those goals that were originally planned to be accomplished in Portugalette may be ......

"Save ...... Help me......"

The girl, who heard a faint cry for help from the alley, no longer hesitated, and stepped into the shadows.

"Pain...... Help me......"

Following the faint cry for help, Junjun found the approximate location of the source of the sound.

After enduring her nausea and turning over a pile of rancid garbage, she found the person calling for help below, only to see her brain go blank for a moment.

If there is no good skin and flesh on the body, it can be regarded as a fairly good expression after being tortured, then the man in front of her at this moment has no skin on his body.

He was skinned and thrown into this garbage heap, but he was still alive and made a cry for help.

The girl, who had finally recovered from her panic, looked left and right with trembling hands, trying to find something, and when she wrapped the wound in front of her for the wounded person who had lost her skin and all her muscles were exposed to the air, the man who was still moaning faintly intermittently suddenly reached out and grabbed her forearm.

"Underground! Ground floor! They're in a cave underground! ”

The man repeated the sentence indistinctly, and every time he opened his mouth, a large mouthful of black and red blood would come out of his mouth.

He grabbed the girl's forearm, and the pair of eyelidless eyes looked at the girl who was panicking and wanted to break free, tugging at the muscles on his face, trying to show a friendly smile:

"Don't be afraid, I'm from the Kingdom's anti-slavery trade department, please tell my companions in Portugalette City with the information I said earlier."

"Underground, they, they're in the underground caves......"
