Chapter 418: Two Picks and One Hundred

"Siegel, did you do it to keep me in a force field cage for an hour?" Evan wiped himself dry, but still smelled of seawater.

"So you slashed the force field with a campfire?" Siegel laughed twice, not embarrassed at all: "I never miscalculated the tide, that force field shield was supposed to hold up until the sea calmed down again, not flooding your cave, who knew you finished the battle ahead of schedule." In fact, if it weren't for me, you would have been washed away by the sea. Don't you know how to look around you?"

"Uh......" Evan scratched his face, "Please tell me, you didn't peek." ”

"I'm not that bored. Siegel rolled his eyes and said in an exaggerated tone, "Peek at His Majesty's ...... You know, what crime will you be sentenced to?"

Now it was Evan's turn to be speechless. The laws of the Starry Kingdom are not as detailed, and this is not the territory of the Starry Kingdom, so there is no way to punish Siegel at all.

"The portal to Myr City will be opened tomorrow morning, and I'll be leaving with the army, so you still have time to linger tonight, don't go too far and get up. Siegel said with a smile.

"I want to get back to Myr slowly, not through the teleportation. Evan said suddenly. "I'm going to pick up the gem, I can't throw it in that farmer's stable. ”

"I can teleport over and take it with me. A horse is still within my teleportation powers. Siegel said, "I've heard that you've revealed your identity in the colony, and I think the news will spread soon." Many of the Southern Lords are supporters of your brother Aaron, and there is no guarantee that they will not act impulsively. And Chanem knows the news, and while I don't think he'll show up or assassinate you in person right now, as the Sage of the God of Murder, arranging a plot against you is what he does best. Only Mir is safe in the New World. Do you understand?"

"I understand all of this. Evan nodded, but he was clearly not convinced. "Let's take it as if it's the last time I'll be willful and enjoy the feeling of freedom. I've decided that after completing my trip back to Myr, I'll be back to the Kingdom of Stars. ”

"Oh, I didn't expect that. "The wandering king is tired of being an adventurer. Or is something else going on?Siegel waved his hand, securing the two of them with a spell. People on the outside will only look at them and think they are chatting. "Are you ready to ascend to the throne and rule the Kingdom of Stars?"

"Come, come, let me be a prophet and tell you about the future. Evan picked up a twig from the ground, made a few gestures as if he were a wand, and said in a low, exaggerated voice, "Oh, I have caught a glimpse of the light and shadow of the future, and the river of time has rippled. The Mirror of Fate reflects my fate: by the time I returned to Myr, the recalcitrant Viscount Pike had contacted many lords and courtiers to invite me back to the capital to preside over the situation. At that time, I will refuse the temporary crown they have made, because only the one on Aaron's head is the crown that symbolizes orthodoxy. This war will be in my name, but it will burn no matter what I choose. ”

"Pike ......" Siegel disliked the rigid, impolite Viscount. "What you're saying is actually your guess, isn't it?"

"It's speculation, but nine times out of ten, it happens. Evan put away his joking expression. With a serious face, he said to Siegel, "Actually, before he was invited to come here, Pike had already secretly contacted some lords. Seek their support. When I set foot on the shores of the Starry Kingdom, there will be an army waiting for me, who will prepare my flag and everything I need to embark on the path to the throne. ”

"Where's Aaron?"

"Siegel, I can succeed, but only I can lead them to failure. Evan said, "I'll take control of the situation and see how Aaron is doing." You know his body...... It's just a matter of time. My only hope is to avoid chaos in the Kingdom of Stars. ”

"I can send a force to follow you. Absolute obedience to your orders is pledged. You've also seen the power of even the Slurry Bolts, and they'll keep you safe. ”

"Thank you, Siegel, I needed it, but the situation didn't allow it. Evan said, "I'm going to hold them back and turn their power into my power." So as to take control of the situation. Your army will alert them and even exacerbate conflicts. I have to be low-key and willful, so that they think I'm in control so that I can see the people around me, you understand?"

"I kind of get it. These political things are harder than spells, and I can only fully understand them if Janet explains them here. Siegel thought for a moment, and then said, "Since you want to keep a low profile, then let's do it, I'll make you a special Elemental Rune Guard, a giant qi element." You can carry it with you and let it protect you in case of danger, and the average army simply can't fight against this thing. ”

"How big is the giant?"

"More than thirty meters tall, probably. Siegel said, "The air element can fly, and it's stable. If it's a fire elemental, you'll be burned to death if you stand next to it. ”

"Haha, take it out and scare them to death!" Evan said, "but you've given me the best magic equipment." ”

He took out the hundred-faced dice from his collar and shook them in front of Siegel: "See, there are numbers lit up, from one to forty-seven." ”

"Isn't it?" Siegel almost snapped his eyes out, "Did you see what the numbers were for?"

"Of course, I figured it out pretty quickly. Evan drew his long sword, swung it a few times, and then demonstrated the circle-drawing sword technique in front of Siegel.

"As long as I'm right with my sword, then the number above will get higher. In other words, as long as I keep trying, I can keep finding better and stronger swordsmanship. Now I can only push the number to around fifty-three at most, but I believe that one day I can reach a hundred, and maybe that will be the pinnacle of swordsmanship. It's a pity that you can only get to twenty at most, hahahaha. ”

"That's not how my dice work. Siegel took out his dice and looked at them, they were still the same, without the slightest change. It seems that this thing has nothing to do with his own strength, and even if he becomes an archmage, he still can't understand how to use it.

Some of the Shadow Spirits knew how to turn on the dice, and now Siegel knew that they were the remnants of the Writer's soul in the world. In the face of the destruction of their world, the writers were already studying the power of the dice, and they also made rings to locate the dice. The emergence of the New World is also the demise of the writer's world, thousands of years ago, why did the dice reappear in the world at this time?

There is no record of dice in any of the mage's materials, as if they never appeared in history. In the current world, except for the Shadow Spirit, the gods may know about it, but they are also tight-lipped. Different dice seem to have different functions, and Evan's hundred-sided dice are just to make his swordsmanship reach its peak?

"You haven't tried archery or using other weapons like spears, will the dice be any different?" Siegel asked.

Evan shook his head: "There are only long swords, short swords, giant swords, heavy swords, and rapiers, and there are no double-headed swords at hand, and I haven't tried." Nothing but the sword reacted. But I don't care about other weapons, just use a sword. It's better to learn too much than to specialize in one. ”

"Congratulations, at least you know how your dice are used, and I'll have to keep figuring it out. Siegel thought for a while and then said, "Evan, these dice are always mysterious, and I can't sleep until I can solve the mystery." Since the Starry Royal Family has stored your hundred-faced dice with a special magic array, perhaps clues can be found in the royal family's records to help understand the origin of this thing. ”

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it. At that time, I will also open up all the information of the royal family, so that you can check it well. Evan patted Siegel on the shoulder affectionately, "I really don't see that you're a researcher. Isn't it tiring to learn so much and so much miscellaneous knowledge?"

"Aren't you annoyed just practicing swords?" Siegel asked rhetorically.

"Haha, I guess you're going to contradict me like that. Evan put his arm around Siegel's shoulders and walked along, reminiscing about the first time they met in Creekwood Town, where the two of them ate and drank at a banquet. "My swordsmanship will get higher and higher, your spells will get stronger and stronger, and it seems that the fair fight we agreed on will never happen. ”

"Don't say never, I think I'll always find a way. Siegel said to Evan, "The next time we meet, am I going to address you as His Majesty?"

"It's just a crown, and I'm not stupid enough to think that a circle of gold and precious stones can do anything. He patted the sword at his waist, and then on Siegel's shoulder, with obvious meaning. "Siegel, I beg you for one thing, ride back to Heim with me, and don't teleport away. ”

"No problem, I'm there for you to protect you from threats. But you have to promise me one thing, if you want to do anything with Ammon, go to the bed in the inn, and don't run around. You know there's a new magical product in Myr City called the Image Crystal, so be careful that I record all the effects for you!"

"Ha, don't make jokes to make me happy, I'm happy now. Evan hugged Siegel tightly and said, "I just want me to have good friends by my side when I'm an adventurous swordsman." You know, when you get back to Myr, you don't feel good when you see Pike's dead fish face. Evan stuck out his tongue and made an exaggerated expression.

"I don't think my adventurer life will be long," Siegel actually knows, in fact, the adventurer life is over. "You'll sit on a tall throne in a palace, and I'll study spells in a magic tower. Thinking about this kind of life makes you feel ...... old."

"I don't know anything else, the king's throne is not tall at all, and you will know when you come to the king. Evan licked his lips and said to Siegel, "Don't be sad, be happy! I'm dry now, come with me for a drink! While it's still dark, I'll be free to move around for a while." ”

"Understood, there is an appointment with the beautiful woman in the evening. Siegel clapped his hands and said to Evan, "Do you need runestones to boost your stamina? I can also improvise some fun little magic to help you up." ”

Evan immediately put his hand in front of Siegel: "How embarrassing is this!" (To be continued.) )
