After a brief period of relaxation, Lance soon returned to retreat and penance.

Sivare's trip was already on the agenda, and he had to complete the second phase of the plan as much as possible, and then return to the White City to join Dora.

With the experience of encountering material dilemmas in the initial stage of second-level wizards, Lance paid more attention to these external resources, and he naturally would not miss this trip to Sivare, if he could really get the treasure of the Wizard King of Gu Wanlun, the next wizard's road would undoubtedly become smoother.

After some consideration, he finally decided to carry out the second phase of the mission as originally planned.

"Although there is less sorcery at hand now, and the combination of the Bow of Heatins and the Instant Arrow is not so important, the attribute of being able to absorb the souls of enemies and improve one's own quality is still very attractive. There are enough materials on hand anyway, and it's always good to have one more means. ”

Guided by this idea, Lance set about refining the Bow of Hiltins. In fact, in addition to the above reasons, the Bow of Heatins has another unconcealable advantage over sorcery - that is, it does not require mana to be activated. Although Lance has a deep magic power and has a demonic heart to replenish at any time, before learning high-end instantaneous or super-magical skills, the activation speed of sorcery is always slower than that of bows and arrows.

The materials needed to refine the bow of Hiltings were all readily available, and the salamander tail, which was originally the most scarce, was now full of potions plantations, so there was no need to worry at all. What reason did Lance have to give up?

Because of his previous experience in refining demonic items, Lance relied on the guidance of Havitt's Guide to the Use of the Fog Dragon Corpse. Step by step, it is refined. It took less than a month to successfully complete the Bow of Hiltins.

This was the first time he had refined a second-order demonic item, and it was still in the middle of the second order, but the process was unexpectedly smooth, which made him a little surprised.

Touching the pitch-black bow and the intricate carvings and magical runes on it, Lance was satisfied.

After the enchantment of the bow body was completed, the production of the instantaneous arrow did not encounter too many twists and turns, except for the first time when there was a problem with the production of the zuò, and the thirteen fog dragon bone spurs after that were all refined into instantaneous arrows.

Demonized items are so smooth. The main thing is that it is thanks to the powerful auxiliary ability of the sub-chip [powder]. This sub-chip gives Reims extremely stable handling ability and ultra-precise precision. Every step of the way is guaranteed to be error-free.

A month later, when Lance walked out of the alchemy, Oslot behind him was gone, replaced by the more slender Hiltings Bow.

......

In the dim forest. A vicious jackal is slowly approaching its prey. It was a human with his back to him.

In the keen perception of the jackal. There was not the slightest hint of suspicion about this human. He was muscular and carried a strange bow and arrow, but he didn't seem to notice it.

This is a great sneak attack. The jackal hunched over. Prepare for a thunderous blow.

However, at this moment, the man who had stood there motionless for a long time suddenly turned around, and the bow and arrow in his hand were aimed at the jackal!

The latter was caught off guard, roared, and flashed into the grass like lightning - frontal combat had never been his style.

However, as soon as his body was twisted, a heart-rending pain was transmitted to his limbs, and his body was torn apart by a terrifying force, and a pure white bone arrow pierced his waist, splitting it in two.

Syllable!

The bone arrows were pinned into the soft dirt, dripping with bright red blood. The corpse of the jackal trembled incessantly, and in places that could not be seen by the human eye, a faint cloud of smoke emerged from the jackal's body and gradually merged into the bone arrows.

On Lance's forehead, the black cross crystal flashed, and under the bonus of the death gaze, he could naturally see the direction of the jackal's soul clearly.

He hurried over and picked up the Momentary Arrow from the ground.

Wiping the blood from the bone arrow with a rag, the faint mist immediately flew out of the instantaneous arrow and merged into a pale hedron on the longbow in his hand. In the transparent [Pale Dragon Crystal], there was immediately a more figure--it was a small jackal, running wildly in the transparent space, vivid and very realistic.

"It is worthy of being a demonized item with the nickname of [Soul Reaper], absorbing the soul of a jackal, and the strength of the spell has actually increased. ”

Lance quietly felt the change in Heatins' bow, and his heart welled with joy.

He tested the power of the newly-arrived demonic item in the jungle, and the results made him quite satisfied. The speed of the Instant Arrow is far faster than that of ordinary bows and arrows, and it is silent and invisible, and its speed is incomparably faster, at least 100% faster than the Flame Arrow and the Dragon Killing Arrow. And its power is actually quite good.

Instant Arrow + Soul Reaper, you can hit a spell strength of about 140 with a casual blow, which is almost as good as ordinary second-level witchcraft. What's even more terrifying is that this demonic item can also absorb the souls of enemies. For example, the jackal just now, after its soul was devoured by the bow of Hiltins, the power of this demonic item increased. In terms of spell strength, it's about 0.1 - it's a small number, but Lance understands the truth that adds up.

What's more, this is just a jackal with average soul strength, if it is a more powerful creature, such as a human wizard, after being killed by the soul reaper, the increase in spell strength will be even greater.

This makes Lance very much looking forward to the future growth of this item, if he can harvest the souls of his enemies in infinite quantities, how terrifying will the bow of Heatins become?!

......

"The people from the Silver Star Alliance have something to look for me, and they've been waiting outside the manor for more than a week?"

When Lance returned from the forest, he heard the news from Arashi. He groaned slightly, and then asked the little maid to notify the people of the Silver Star Alliance to come in.

After a while, an anxious Hayward walked in.

"Mr. Lance. See you at last!"

The young man looked very anxious, and he strode through the door, and said eagerly, "We need your help!"

"My help?" Lance's face remained unchanged, thinking that it was most likely that the Silver Star Alliance was in some trouble and needed to take action himself.

It's just that with the strength of the Silver Star Alliance in the City of Decay, what kind of thing will make them feel tricky?

If it's too big a thing, Lance really doesn't want to go, after all, according to the plan, he is now a critical period to accumulate strength, with the help of Velen Meditation and the Eternal Vial. His magic grew by the day. He was reluctant to interrupt this cultivation process, but the Silver Star Alliance had a lot to do with him, and Borg and Hayward had frequently shown him favor before, and he had made great efforts when purchasing the manor, and he still had to give the other party some face.

So he said firmly, "Don't be in a hurry. Something. Take your time. ”

Hayward shook his head and said, "It's too late." Mr. Lance, the team battle will begin this afternoon, and we don't have time to prepare. ”

"Team battles?" Lance frowned slightly.

Hayward saw Lance's face change. Immediately woke up, his attitude was really a little impolite.

So he immediately bowed his head and respectfully explained, "This week is the annual Decay City Witchcraft Exchange Conference, and our Silver Star Alliance and our rival Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce have both entered the final battle of the conference. In the previous match, we lost 3-6, if we still lose today's team battle, we will completely lose the hope of winning the championship, if we win the team battle in the afternoon, we will get three points, so that in this tournament we will draw with the Magic Spring Chamber of Commerce and get a chance to play in the extra round. ”

"Maybe you don't know much about it, but we do need your help. If you are willing to participate in the afternoon team battle as a three-star member, our Silver Star Alliance will reward you with 5,000 magic stones and a cultivation method of fire and witchcraft. Plus, you'll get a four-star boost, which is above most members. If you lead your team to win the game, we're willing to add another 5,000 magic stones!"

"Ten thousand magic stones?!" The Silver Star Alliance's generosity made the wealthy Lance also a little moved.

However, what surprised him even more was that the Silver Star Alliance actually had a witchcraft mystery in his hand! Although it was only the most basic [Initial Mystery Meaning] when he thought about it, it was also a very precious treasure.

"A preliminary mystery is worth more than 6,000 magic stones in the market of Ferendor, and if it is a popular meaning, it is often worth no market......

Lance's heart was shocked, but also a little moved. He motioned for Hayward to continue.

The latter saw that Lance's attitude changed slightly, and his heart was overjoyed, knowing that there was a play. Don't dare to slack off at the moment, and immediately explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

It turns out that in the City of Decay, the main trade channels are divided between the Silver Star Alliance and the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce. The rest of the small chambers of commerce and wizarding organizations only ate the leftovers that leaked from the mouths of the two major organizations. These trade channels and related resources are basically determined by the decennial Witchcraft Exchange Conference.

Gaining a higher rank in the conference will allow you to gain the approval of the Bai people and obtain more resources - this is the common rule of the Rotten City, and no one dares to oppose it, otherwise it will be attacked by other wizards. Since this is the exchange meeting of the City of Decay, those large wizarding organizations in the Black Lands will not have a chance to participate, such as the devastated Flower Scorpion Society, the defunct Golden Lion, and the thriving Silver Light, are not eligible to appear in the list of competitions.

From Hayward's account, Lance learns that if he wins the Exchange, he will be able to control half of the trade resources of the Rotten City.

In the last decade, the Magic Spring Chamber of Commerce won the championship in one fell swoop, so it had a ten-year period of rapid development. And this time, the newly rising Silver Star Alliance is naturally not far behind, and wants to win the glory and resources of the first place from the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce.

It stands to reason that the system of the Silver Star Alliance is far more capable of attracting talents than the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce, and it should have more advantages in the battle-oriented conference. But in fact, the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce is more adept at tricks than the Silver Star Alliance, and it is also better at using money offensives. Several wizards who originally belonged to the Silver Star Alliance fell from their own camp to each other under the attack of the magic stones of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce.

This series of measures led to the lack of preparation of the Silver Star Alliance, and it failed again and again in the final battle of the conference. At present, the individual competition and the ring competition have ended, and the Silver Star League is temporarily behind with a score of 3-6. The final team battle is worth 3 points, and only by winning this game will they have a chance to play a play-off and thus defeat the Magic Spring Chamber of Commerce.

Hayward had come to Black Rose Manor to look for Lance a week earlier, but Lance was still tinkering with Heatins' bow in the alchemy workshop at that time, and Arashi didn't dare to disturb him.

By the time he came out, the game was already halfway through, and the team battle was going to start this afternoon. The Silver Star Alliance is really cornered. If Lance doesn't show up. They almost gave up.

Because of the several second-level wizards they prepared before, one is said to be unable to fight, one was secretly attacked and injured and is currently recuperating, and the other has already thrown into the arms of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce. There was a vacancy in the person leading the team.

"There are no second-level wizards. Team battles are a sure loser. Hayward said bitterly, "Several adults of our Silver Star Chamber of Commerce. We've all played in previous individual and ring matches, and we can't take on the role of team battle leader, so we can only turn to you for help. ”

"I need to know the rules of team battles. As well as information on the enemy. ”

Lance said in a deep voice.

Hayward was overjoyed: "No problem! To save time, let's talk as we go? In just over an hour, it's time for the group battle to begin, and if we go slowly, we'll miss the time." ”

"Okay, let's go. ”

Lance didn't hesitate, now that he had made the decision, he had to be more straightforward.

The two sides went out all the way, and the people of the Silver Star Alliance had already prepared the carriage and rushed all the way towards the city of decay.

......

On the bumpy carriage, Hayward handed Lance the information he had prepared and began to explain in detail.

Since the conference has reached the most critical moment, some of the previous rules were directly ignored by the two, and the focus was on the final team battle part.

The team battle will be held in the [Sunset Gladiatorial Arena] in the City of Decay, and a large number of wizards and mortals will come to watch this grand game, the Sunset Gladiatorial Arena is built by Bai wizards according to ancient legends, using a lot of rare materials, there are three broken planes in the center of the gladiatorial arena that can be entered, and the scenes inside are all pre-set by the Bai elders. In an official match, no one on either side of the match knows which of the three broken planes will be used.

Other than that, the rules are surprisingly simple. There were a total of eleven people from the two sides involved in the final battle, and the team leaders were generally second-level wizards, and the rest were ten high-level apprentices. The two sides will find the belief of the Bai people in the three broken planes, the blue token of the rotten snail. The game lasts for six hours, and after six hours, both sides must reach the exit of the broken plane, and whoever finds the most blue rotten snails will win the team battle.

It stands to reason that in such a game, the strength of the wizard does not seem to be very important.

“...... But in fact, in the last group battle, the wizards of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce did not look for any rotten snail tokens at all, and they chose the most extreme means to kill all the personnel of the hostile wizard organization...... This way, even if they only have a blue rotten snail token in their hands, they can be the final victors. Hayward said worriedly, "We're worried they'll do the same this time." So if it weren't for you, we'd have chosen to forfeit the game, because there's no need to send those ten high apprentices to death. ”

Lance nodded, he had memorized the rules of the game.

He looked at the information in his hand, the leader of the enemy was a second-level wizard named Ramon, and his magic level was the middle of the second order, and after a preliminary compression, he was at least one head ahead of Lance in terms of book strength. Hayward's voice rang out again:

"What we mean by that is that if you're willing to make a move, you just need to contain that second-level wizard. The rest, like the search for the Blue Rotten Snail token, is left to our people. All ten of them have unique spells that are perfect for finding things. As a last resort, I think it's better for us not to go head-to-head with the people of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce. ”

Although his words are tactful, the meaning is also very clear, the Silver Star Alliance believes that although Lance is a second-level wizard, it is unlikely to be Ramon's opponent, so they hope that he will come forward as a positive force to contain Ramon's actions. And the real hope of victory was pinned on the hands of those ten higher apprentices.

Lance smiled quietly: "With all due respect, are you Silver Star Alliance afraid of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce?"

Hayward was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Lance meant. But still said decisively: "Of course we are not afraid of them." ”

"That's good. ”

The carriage slowly stopped, and Lance dropped the information on the car, opened the curtain and walked down.

The cheers came like a tsunami, and in front of them was a tall building with countless crowds. Outside the building, two passages were cleared by the staff, and people were talking about it.

"Huh, aren't all the people from the Silver Star Alliance already entering, and why are there still people coming?"

"Could it be a secret weapon? This wizard looks young. ”

"It's nothing to be young, but without a second-level wizard, it is indeed difficult for the Silver Star Alliance to compete with the people of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce, and he is so young, he will definitely not be the leader of the group battle. ”

"A first-level wizard can't control the battle situation at all, and this time it's the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce that won!"

......

The huge sunset gladiatorial arena was already full of spectators at this time. The wizard of the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce was already sitting on a large magic carpet, led by an old man with a white beard, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't pay attention to the others at all.

"Mr. Borg, at your request, we have delayed the game by twenty minutes. A young man walked over quickly and said to the vice president of the Silver Star Alliance with a look of embarrassment, "If your contestants don't show up again, we will declare the Demon Spring Chamber of Commerce victorious." (To be continued......)
