Chapter 162: The Blessing of the World Tree

The World Tree is a symbol of the will of the elves, the root of nature, and the source of the birth of all elves.

Therefore, although it is just a leaf, this blessing that is known as the miracle of life contains magical power that can make the bearer obtain a reborn change.

Except in the last resort, it is possible to get a hint of help from the World Tree.

The most important thing is to be able to improve the attributes that the holder wants to improve, which belongs to the intelligence of the soul level, or the strength of the body.

And Nina was in the midst of this wonderful feeling, she felt that her mind was suddenly occupied by a green dot the size of an aperture, and then, in tens of seconds, from a small sapling to a strange little tree that Nina had never seen before.

It's weird because it has the appearance that shouldn't be the size it should be.

The roots are bent and vigorous, the dense green leaves, and the towering branches.

It's like taking a towering tree and using a hundred-fold reduction technique to shrink and stuff it into Nina's mental space.

"Probably, this is what Loviv said about the World Tree?"

This thought popped up in Nina's mind, and she also felt the most substantial changes that occurred after the World Tree took root and her heart.

That is, a few tricks that she couldn't release 100% success in the past are now estimated to be released as long as there is no external force to disturb her, and she can release it with a little concentration.

In addition, she perceived the magic web of existence and nothingness more and more closely, as if the thread was much thicker and more substantial.

Originally, the magic web that Nina perceived might just be spider silk, but now it may be a little better, turning into a thin thread that can be seen and can be bounced at your fingertips.

Well, the description is terrible, but it is......

They don't need to build a model like other wizards, they just need to get the permission granted by the magic web, and they can cast the spells allowed by that permission.

It is said that many years ago this was not the case, and the magic net was almost unlimited, until a certain man appeared and he changed all that with the twelve-ring spell he had studied.

Karthus.

The only twelve-ring spell, it took Karthas, a genius mage, ten years to prepare for this spell.

At last? He did it? But also failed, mortal body? Unable to afford the power of God.

But this also led to the incarnation of the magic net at that time? The goddess of magic, Mithriel, died, but she was not killed by a Calthus spell.

But you noticed the loophole in the magic web? In order to patch this loophole, she chose to commit suicide and reboot.

And that led to that? The newborn goddess of magic, Mystra? The magic web was restricted, and from now on, mortal mages could no longer use magic above the nine rings.

There are thousands of thoughts in my heart, but the reality is only in the blink of an eye.

Nina hasn't forgotten why she's here.

Although she never thought about it, coming here today? I even happened to meet Lovieff's departure.

How many steps did Nina take forward? Pulling Celia's sleeve, he walked to the half-elf mage who was smiling at him not far away, Fran Willow.

"Good day ~ Sister Fran. ”

Nina mimicked what she had learned from Celia and greeted the half-elf mage.

And Fran Verlo, who was standing next to the front desk, also returned the salute and smiled.

"Good day, little Nina. ”

"What? Is there anything good for me?"

Franvilo looked at Nina's expression and guessed what Nina wanted to do.

After all, as always? It is also a place to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

"There's a lot to sell, and it's time to replenish the scrolls. ”

Nina is a little distressed? Apparently the cost of the scroll made her grit her teeth a little, but because it was Gordon's request? I had to do it again.

What is the payment each time? How much did she wish? If he is a powerful mage, then Mr. Gordon will not have to spend money.

It's a pity that the dream is beautiful, and the gold coins should still be paid.

By the time Nina and Celia came out of the alchemy shop, the streets were already bustling with people, and most of them had already gotten up to start their day.

Smelling the fresh air of the unique sea breeze, Nina's pace was much faster, and she couldn't wait to go out of the city to meet Gordon.

After all, everything that should be bought has been bought, and it's time to get out of here.

"I really don't know what Mr. Gordon said about Ricka Island and what it looks like to be a cat-human, it should be fine. ”

Nina took Celia by the sleeve as she set out on her journey back to the city.

However, when Nina walked a few steps, she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said to Celia.

"Sister Celia, I forgot to buy something!"

"What is it?" Celia also thought about it carefully, didn't she buy everything at the alchemy shop?

This time, Gordon sold all the equipment and materials that were inconspicuous, could not be used, or could not improve combat power, and exchanged for a lot of gold coins, which was not much less than the last time.

At least she could afford it, but she couldn't remember anything else after the money for the Transfiguration Scroll and the core gem set in the Summoning Fire Elemental Ring.

Besides, they don't have much money left now, after buying the list that Gordon has mentioned.

"It's the seed of a crop!"

Nina browled her eyebrows, pulled out a rusty silver coin from the pocket of her linen dress, and grinned.

She hadn't forgotten that when she arrived on the island, there was still a piece of farmland that belonged to her, and if there was no seed, wouldn't it be barren.

However, the crop seed shop is not hard to find, and there is another street in the civilian area, near the Iron Furnace Tavern, where Nina used to forage.

"Alright then! Let's go. ”

Celia thought that it wasn't too far from there, so there was no obstruction.

After all, life on the island is estimated to be very boring, and it is still good to cultivate your sentiments once in a while and add a little fun to life.

They quickly took a short path from the alley to another street in the civilian area, where there were a lot fewer people than the previous street due to geographical factors.

But there are still a lot of people passing by, and the seed shop for crops is in the middle of nowhere, in a hollow in the middle of the street.

Nina took Celia inside, and it didn't take long for her to buy a small cloth bag full of crop seeds for about a little more than a silver coin.

Nina put the small cloth bag in her hand as if she had found it, and her heart was already looking forward to the future.

"Nina, let's go. ”

Celia, looking at Nina who was standing in place silly, couldn't help but remind.

Nina woke up like a dream, hurriedly put the small cloth bag away, and then continued to hold Celia's hand, intending to walk out of the area.

But I don't know if it was intentional or not, Nina seemed to hear someone crying and running in the alley.

"Is there a situation?"

Nina, who is wise to protect herself, is not so curious, and in the black street, the most important thing is curiosity.

So, she pulled Celia and wanted to get out of here.

However, before they could step away, a man had staggered out of the alley.

It is a dragonborn with vertical pupils, pronounced dragon-like horns and scales on its forehead, and a distinct tendency to have dragon claws on its hands. Sharp and hideous.

She looked a lot older than Nina, a red-haired girl.

By human standards, it must not be very aesthetically pleasing, but among the Dragonborn, it is also beautiful.

Her outfit is the outfit of an ordinary adventurer, a leather-armored sword.

Judging from her panicked look and non-stop footsteps, it is obvious that there are pursuers behind her.

Her mouth was still screaming for help, who could come to my rescue, and so on.

But in this remote location, in addition to a few nearby shops can be heard, there are only three or two pedestrians, hearing this, they all stopped indifferently and did not come forward to help.

After all, this is a lifesaver for a dragonborn, or a descendant of a red dragon, a bandit, and most people will choose to stay out of it.

I don't know what to do yet.

Celia and Nina also saw the broodling, but they didn't go up to help immediately, but stood aside and watched the situation develop.

Just as the Red Dragon Dragonborn was about to continue to escape, but before she could get a few steps out of the alley, a magical ray of light shot out from the alley, freezing her straight and she froze.

--"Humanoid Immobilization." ”

Caster!

This act made many people retract their vision, although Karando forbade mages to cast spells, but this kind of ban is difficult to do in a huge urban settlement, if you want to completely prohibit it.

So, as long as you don't use it in front of the city guards, basically no one will come to trouble you.

This also made those residents who planned to watch the excitement retract their gaze.

The caster has a strange temper, and God knows if it will anger them.

Nina tugged at Celia's sleeve despite some concern on her face.

"Let's go, Sister Celia!"

It's not that she doesn't want to be nosy, it's that she doesn't feel the need to make a fuss now, and although she is sympathetic, it would be unwise and irrational to provoke a strong enemy for the sake of a strange dragonborn.

But Nina's departure did not satisfy the latter, because she seemed to be targeted.

"Oh, there's a Dragonborn here?"

An old man walked out of the alley with a staff in his hand, and in his other hand he was holding a special crystal ball, in which a few red dots shone in the transparent ball of light.

The closest to the old man is the brightest, and the distance is a little dim.

The old man hurriedly looked in the direction of the point of light.

I saw the back of Nina and Celia leaving.

"Girl?"

"Dragonborn younger than that?"

George Norton's face was beaming, and he didn't even care about the Red Dragon Dragonborn in the immobilization state.

hurriedly followed.
