Chapter 61: Instant Escalation

Duchem almost fell straight out of the air when he saw Roth and the woman who looked exactly like the shadow running out of the cracked shadow of the city lord.

The index finger and middle finger of his right hand still maintained the sword shape because of the previous sword, and the meridians were also painful because of the overload, if it weren't for the fact that the so-called Adamantite level was actually the first legend of the old era, the essence of life had begun to sublimate, and it would have been abandoned a long time ago.

Although the natal sword that was refined privately was not damaged, after all, it was forcibly refined by the method of reverse pushing and gasifying the sword without anyone's guidance, and he had poked his dantian into two holes twice in a row, although it was actually impossible, but he just had the illusion that his stomach was leaking.

This strange sight appeared in front of me on top of this......

He felt that he must have been attacked by the spiritual department!

That's right, this makes sense, how can this shadow be able to smile nonchalantly and close himself casually with his own sword, what kind of strength does that have to be?

So this is an illusion, that's right, look at this Lot is the person he knows, and that woman also looks like the shadow of the city lord, there is no doubt that it is an illusion created by invoking his own memory!

Well...... If so, why is it Roth, a person he didn't care about......

It doesn't matter, in any case, since the other party used illusion and he is still alive, it means that the other party is also the end of the strong crossbow, in this case, his finger that still maintains the sword shape is the winner and loser!

Just as Duchem was thinking about how to make a move, the woman who looked exactly like the shadow of the city lord suddenly moved!

Duchem resisted the urge to make a move immediately, and he hung on this last breath of fighting spirit, if the timing of the shot was wrong, it would be doomed!

Yes, how can the shadow deceive people with an illusion that looks exactly like his own if he has no intelligence?

It should be that Roth, it must be because the shadow is not good at illusion and requires IQ technology, and mistakenly thinks that Roth is his friend, and wants to make him hesitate, and this woman's phantom is used to attract my attention and make my attention ......

Since this illusion is a spell that invokes the shadow of the city lord, it is a spell she used before her death, and this city lord has such strength, even if it is a gourd painting scoop illusion, it is impossible to be so shallow......

Rather, is it really necessary for it to hide its own body in the two phantoms of Roth and this woman? if it sees two phantoms, it will definitely attack one of them, and it can hide somewhere else!

Or is it ...... It is also possible to do the opposite, that is, to take advantage of the misunderstanding of people's thinking, in fact, the phantom of this woman is the ontology......

For a moment, Duchem only felt that his thinking ability had entered a new realm, and if he could survive this catastrophe, it would definitely be of great benefit in the future!

When the woman grabbed Duchem's left hand, he resisted the urge to strike immediately, because he trusted his body, he could feel that he was not being attacked or eroded, and his right hand was still shaking, but not entirely because of the injury.

"Mr. Duchem!?What's the matter?Miss Lijliet said she could take me out, but this is not the place I came in...... Woo, how am I floating in the air!" Roth said with a flustered expression.

Hmph, he didn't say anything here, but he was the first to confide in me one more piece of information, Lijielit was the name of the city lord's shadow before his death? Sure enough, the shadow can't use illusions!

"Thank you heroes for your help!" said Lijielit, grabbing Duchem's left hand, "I have been suffering for hundreds of years after being corrupted by filth, and in order to save myself, I had to pull the adventurers who entered the castle into the illusion, and after Roth's arrival, I thought I had found a chance to get rid of the erosion, but I never thought that I fell into the trap and almost made a big mistake! If it weren't for the opportunity created by the hero, I would have been completely corrupted by the filth!"

Resist for hundreds of years?, how is it possible...... If it is that kind of strength, maybe it ...... No, no, it's just an illusion, don't be induced!

After saying this, Lijielit's body began to turn red and gray, she let go of Duchem's left hand, and looked at her gradually disappearing body, there was no sadness on her face, only relief, "It seems that the limit has been reached." I'm sorry, Roth, although I have already come to my senses, but I am really sorry that you have worked so hard to save me, but it can only be this result. ”

"Miss Lijielet!" Roth put on a sad face, "really, that's all there is to it!"

Do you want to pretend to disappear and wait for an opportunity to attack while I'm slack? That's right, I'll fight back for you at that time! Duchem was ready.

"No need to be sad, Mr. Roth, at least I can get through the last period as I was, ...... Already...... Enough ......" Ligerlit's voice grew more and more ethereal, dissipating in the blood-colored mist.

"Little Lijielet...... "Roth fell because of Lijielet's disappearance!

It's true that with that Roth's strength, there is no way to fly, is it to lure me to save me? I won't...... Wait a minute, Castle Black has lost its shape and turned into black mud? And that's, the black mud shrinks, the tide recedes......

Duchem took the last breath of fighting and fell out of the black mud with Roth in his arms.

Damn, I was careless! The ebb tide may have read my memory, and if it did it at this point...... Go out...... Didn't make a move? Duchem fell into chaos.

Just as Duchem and Roth were about to fall to the ground together, a man caught them.

Duchem looked fixedly, "Mr. Raft!"

"In the face of an opponent who can cause spatial collapse, you can actually win the battle! It seems that it is a bit too much to forcibly keep you at the Adamantite level, I will personally come out to prove your merits to those old ones!" Raft said with a laugh as he looked at Duchem appreciatively.

"......Mr. Raft! No, is it because I've been corrupted? I've heard that those who are corrupted by filth have the illusion of happiness...... Ahh

Raft gave Duchem a solid punch that knocked him unconscious.

"Based on the survivors' intelligence, you will see happy memories of the past, have I said such things to you in the past?"

Roth cautioned, "That, Raft...... Mr. Duchem has fainted. ”

"I know that he won't listen to what he says now, and that's the only way to do it. Raft placed Roth, who looked able to move on his own, on the ground, "It's you...... I've got the information from the surveillance squad up to now, and if Miss Lijielit didn't lie, you rescued her adventurer from within? What's your name?"

"I am ......"

"Deliver!?" Lista's voice sounded first.

Rafft furrowed his thick eyebrows and looked in Lista's direction.

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Raft!" Lista quickly apologized, and kept his distance and didn't continue to get closer, "I entered the Black Castle with Mr. Lot, but Roth wasn't there when I was thrown out by the illusion, I thought something happened to him, but I didn't expect him to do such a great feat, I was so surprised that I ......"

"You're one of the adventurers who came to help Duchem attack the castle, right, well, they're all responsible adventurers!" But you said you were thrown out of the illusion?

Lista didn't come closer, "I think Roth should be able to give more detailed information than I do, Mr. Raft." ”

Roth thought it was a little strange, what reason did he have to refuse here, and how dare he refuse?

Raft looked at Lista, his brow unfurled, and finally nodded, "That's right." ”

Is there any special relationship between Lista and this Raft......?

Raft looked at Roth more closely and asked, "Your name is Roth?"

"Yes, sir, this is my nameplate. Roth took out his brand, saying that he had been using the jade plate given by Duchem to use the association's related facilities, and this was the first time he had taken out his own license.

Lot's license plate is an ordinary stone plaque, and the magic pattern engraved on it will become invalid if it is not charged in the association every once in a while, and generally speaking, if you want to have a jade plaque that can absorb the magic in the environment and recharge yourself, you must at least be metal-level, and if you want to be able to give the jade plaque as a check like Duchem, you must be gold-level.

The upper part of the front of the stone plaque contains the personal information of Lot as an adventurer, and the lower half is embedded with a thin artificial greenstone, which means that he is an adventurer of the greenstone level.

Raft took Rot's nameplate with his right hand, and after checking the information, he laughed and patted Rott with his free left hand (Rott found out that Duhem had been resisted on his right shoulder by Raft with anti-goods), "Are you the Green Stone level......? Oh, you're coming with that Lista, right? It's not easy to do, it's supposed to be based on your contribution this time, once it is confirmed, you can directly have a gold qualification, although it is impossible for you to really become a gold level directly, but as long as you have the strength to keep up later. But you're still in trouble if you're still gem-level, according to the rules, you can't jump at the big level no matter what, even if it's the little sword saint Yoel at the beginning!"

"Metals are more advanced than gemstones? In order not to be exposed, Lijielit, who was temporarily hiding in Lot's collar in an invisible way, said in her heart.

Roth had seen the name Raft in Joel's letter, and at this time he was a little nervous, and he was reluctant to say to her in a hearted voice, "I only know a rough idea of this knowledge, but the Adventurers' Guild has a library in the big city, and you can ask when you are interested." ”

"What's the matter, although I don't have much strength left now, it's still okay to help you change your appearance, even if he sees through that pocket watch. ”

"Thank you Mr. Raft for promoting, I am self-aware of my own strength, so naturally I will not complain!" Roth did not reply in his heart, in short, deal with the past Raft first.

Raft took out a stone tablet embedded with a thin slice of light diamond from his magic pocket, stacked it on Roth's nameplate, copied the adventurer's information, and then gave the two signs to Roth, "I will arrange an upgrade test for you as soon as possible, as long as you pass, you can be promoted to iron level, but it's a pity, Mr. Roth, you can't achieve the achievement of collecting all the adventurer's nameplates, hahaha!"

When an adventurer upgrades, the old nameplate does not need to be handed in, so some people will deliberately avoid doing tasks that may allow them to skip a level, in order to collect a set of nameplates, it is said that a complete set of nameplates starting with a stone plate without gems can be collected in the central region of the United Kingdom as a collectible for a high price, and the more advanced the final nameplate, the greater the value of the entire nameplate.

Roth knew who Raft was, and he wasn't surprised that he had this kind of permission to give him an upgrade casually, but he didn't know how to behave here, so he made a dull face and looked at the two signs in his hand without speaking.

"What's wrong?" Raft asked, "Are you too happy, or are you disappointed that you're missing all the collection achievements?"

"No, I, that, Mr. Duchem...... Doesn't it matter?" Roth's words were sincere, and it was a little hard to see a person who was obviously seriously injured being carried like a sack.

"Don't worry about him, I'm using my fighting spirit to help him sort out his meridians, and it's not important to have a small thing like a posture. The man, who had obviously trimmed his eyebrows and beard on purpose, wore a white shirt of unknown material and brown leather armor on the upper half of his body, and black leather pants and shoes on his lower body, and his exposed skin shone slightly in the sun as if it had been oiled, and he stood casually like a posing man.

"Someone will come to you to take notes about this black castle later, so go to the city and meet up with the rest of the Adventurers' Guild. Raft changed his mind and was not going to ask Roth right away, "I'm looking forward to your future performance, Mr. Roth!"

With that, he flew away with Duchem carefully, and a voice that no one else could hear appeared in Rot's ears.

"Don't worry, I don't care which Roth you are. ”

"He probably didn't see through it, but can you tell me the reason why you hid your identity?

Roth looked at Lista who came over and said in his heart: "Let's talk about this later, I have a bunch of troubles to deal with now." ”

Lista walked over with a happy face and said to Roth, "Boss, I didn't expect you to be safe!"

"yes, there's a lot going on, it's hard to put into words!" Roth said.

"Then I'm going to have to find a way to get the story out of you, Boss!By the way, can I see your new nameplate?"

Roth handed it to him, and Lista flipped through it and whistled, pointed to the back of the nameplate and said to Roth, "Look, there is indeed Mr. Raft's coat of arms here, boss, you are really ...... First Duchem's jade plate, and now it is a nameplate with Mr. Raft's coat of arms, alas, I have just become positive because of my credit rating, and now I only have an iron-grade nameplate, I didn't expect you to catch up with me, boss......"

"That Mr. Raft, I've heard of it, but it's all rumor-level knowledge, can you tell me about it? Roth walked in the direction of the already half-ruined city.

Lista also followed, returned the nameplate to Roth, looked at the magic eye in the air and sighed: "Alas, there must be a bunch of materials in the ruins that have not had time to be withdrawn, but I can't take it if someone is watching me......"

"If you keep thinking like this, I don't think this credit rating will go up for the rest of my life. ”

"Ahem, let's not talk about this, boss. But how could the Boss, as an adventurer, not know Mr. Raft?"

Roth thought to himself, of course I know, because I know more than the average person from Jorna, but I have to find a way to find out without suspicion.

"How long have I been an adventurer? There's so much going on in this time, there's no time at all. Roth complained.

Lista was also full of emotion: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! Boss, your upgrade speed is estimated to be recorded in history, except for those [heroes] who else can have this kind of upgrade speed? No, boss, your experience itself can be regarded as a legendary story!"

Seriously, this kind of story is different from what he wants, but Roth feels that there is no way to do it now, according to Lijielit, even if he is not a disaster star, he is probably a person who has written the word "trouble" in his fate, and as long as he embarks on an adventure, he will not have the opportunity to experience the story of an ordinary adventurer.

Thinking of this, Roth said impatiently: "It's all off topic, hurry up and tell me about that Mr. Raft." ”

"Mr. Raft is now the leader of the Adventurers' Guild, a member of the three Adventurers' Guild, and the most powerful adventurer in the past hundred years, but this title now seems to be threatened by the young Sword Saint Yor. Ten years ago, he became a nobleman for war because he had accumulated too much credit, but even if he became a nobleman, he still insisted on the front line, as long as he was an adventurer, there was no one who was unwilling to give him face. ”

Lista said this, pointing to the new brand in Rot's hand, "Just this brand, as long as you light up, you have to pick any commission for you first." ”

Roth raised his eyebrows and said, "And this effect?"

"Hey, it's a matter of face, there is no such rule on the surface, but who dares not to give it?" Lista smiled, "Let's not talk about what adventurers think, whether it is an official commission from the guild or a personal commission, as soon as you see Raft's coat of arms on your nameplate, your trust will definitely multiply several times, and people will definitely be willing to entrust it to you!"

"I only met him for the first time, and he gave me something so important because he saw that conversation from the Eyes of Magic? he wasn't afraid that I was just a momentary luck?" he ......" Roth shook his head and said halfway through, thinking it out to himself.

If Raft really was a person who casually gave away things with his own coat of arms, he would not have had such a reputation.

In other words, he didn't just give this brand to himself.

It's stupid, Raft told him clearly before.

Alas, if it were Joel, he would have figured it out at the first time.
