Fortunately, while Levi and the others were fighting in the underground cave, Sam and the Elion cavalry who stayed outside did not encounter any suspicious enemies. They waited very smoothly until they used supplies, recovered their strength, and returned successfully.
.
After learning that Li Wei and the others had killed thousands of demons, everyone's morale was greatly boosted, especially the Elion cavalry, who were so excited that they were almost speechless.
Coming from a country of horseback riding and slashing, what could be more satisfying than killing demons themselves?
Although they missed this good opportunity due to terrain restrictions this time, they still harbored illusions. Neither gnolls nor demons are races accustomed to living underground. They did miss this time, but if
Next time the other side performs such an evil ritual on the plains, then they will have the opportunity to show off their power!
Similarly, other subordinates were also very excited, because after counting all the loot and giving a portion to Donna, Levi thought about it and decided to give everyone a small bonus.
The money was not much, it was just a wish, probably only about one-third of their weekly salary, but it also fully mobilized everyone's enthusiasm. They couldn't wait to encounter such a battle again. After all, the reason why they accepted the recruitment was
Isn’t it just for money?
Unfortunately, even though everyone was fully prepared, things didn't go so smoothly next. Levi let go of the jackals many times in succession, and until it was almost dark, they couldn't find a second similar one.
Evil cave.
After the last discussion, they could only think that there might be only one similar place in each area, and if they wanted to find it, they would have to go to other places.
But now it's getting late, and everyone's vision has been weakened to varying degrees, which is very detrimental to their next battle, so Li Wei can only take his men back for the time being and wait until tomorrow to make plans, and regardless of
Anyway, today's harvest is rich enough.
When they returned to the village, they found that many people were rushing towards the same direction of the village, and Levi suddenly felt a little strange.
He casually pulled over a chosen hero and asked about it, and then he realized that a special merchant had arrived. He sold a variety of rare magic scrolls and magic potions, and the prices were generally not expensive, mostly between 1.5-2 silver coins.
.
Levi was stunned for a moment. Could this be the mage businessman Tes who held a promotion ceremony for him? It's just that when he sold things to him before, they weren't so expensive!
The reason why this guy took the opportunity to raise the price was because he saw that the selected heroes were all short of money? He is really a thief!
Although he felt a little emotional, after temporarily leaving his subordinates under the leadership of Donna and others, Levi also took Cindy and several other subordinates with him. Not only did he also want to replenish the consumed scrolls and potions, he also wanted to
Show that sacrificial ceremony to the other party, maybe you can get some special clues.
After arriving at the place, Levi found that the scene was really hot, with at least dozens of God-chosen heroes surrounding him inside and outside. The old mage Tes who he talked about before was trading with them with a smile, and it seemed that there were a few more
The supply exceeds the demand because there are not many goods left.
And to Li Wei's surprise, the businessman Tros, whom he hadn't seen for several days, was actually standing beside the old mage, and even occasionally helped him. Not only did these two guys have similar names, they were both businessmen, and
It looked like the two of them were not strangers.
When they saw Li Wei, both businessmen were a little surprised, but Tros was slightly surprised, while the old mage smiled and nodded, then quickly turned his head away, looking a little guilty.
Li Wei couldn't help but snorted secretly when he saw this. Sure enough, this old guy is very likely to have buried a hole for himself in the duet. If this is the case, then if the twisted tree spirit comes to trouble you, I won't be worried.
Feeling guilty.
After waiting for a few more minutes, the old mage's goods were almost sold out. Most of the God-chosen heroes left one after another. The remaining few were either trying to book goods from him, or trying to get close to the old mage.
I want to take some tasks from him, or learn a few things.
Not to mention, this old mage was unexpectedly generous. Several of the chosen heroes left with satisfaction. They each received some tasks to collect materials.
Businessman Tross subconsciously wanted to run towards Levi, but after receiving a secret look, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately thought of something, so he pretended that nothing happened and started talking to the old man.
The mage will close the stall together.
Even though this old mage was worth a lot, he was not willing to rent a shop. Instead, he simply set up a stall in the open space in the center of the village, which was considered stingy.
The old mage packed up his things slowly, and then smiled and said: "It turns out to be Master Li Wei. I didn't expect that we met here again. Did your adventure go well today?"
Li Wei felt a little surprised. Since he could become such a high-level mage, there was no doubt about the other party's intelligence, but why was he so guilty now? Did he misunderstand something?
Thinking of this, he immediately decided to take advantage of the situation, snorted slightly, and said with a bit of hatred: "Today is not going well. I encountered some extremely powerful enemies, and almost even myself was in danger, but fortunately my subordinates
They were brave enough to help me achieve the final victory."
The old mage coughed again and said slightly, "Oh, that's good, that's good."
Saying this, Levi also obviously noticed that he seemed to relax a lot.
Now even the businessman Tross next to him could see that something was definitely going on between the two people, but for now he still pretended not to know anything and was completely unfamiliar with Li Wei, because he still wanted to
I'm trying to buy some goods from this old mage.
Although according to Li Wei's previous guidance, he has indeed made a little money these days, but if he can maintain a stable relationship with a mage, it will be more helpful to his career.
Especially mages like the other party who are willing to set up stalls anywhere, they must hold on tightly. After all, mages have always relied on their identities and rarely act as businessmen themselves. They think this will damage their face.
The suspicion in Li Wei's heart was even deeper. Could it be that this old guy mistakenly thought that there was a pursuer chasing him, and then he helped him carry it over, so he relaxed, right?
But after a few casual test sentences, the old mage's tone was very tight and he had no intention of revealing anything at all.
And I don’t know if he thought that the threat was gone, but he actually became more stubborn and kept changing the topic. Obviously he didn’t want to talk more, and he didn’t even ask specifically what kind of enemy Li Wei encountered.
And what race is it from?
Since he couldn't find out for the time being, Li Wei simply gave up. Anyway, if an enemy really came to him in the future, it wouldn't be too late to deal with him.
Even though he was a mage twice as high as him, after talking to Donna and a few others for a while, they all thought that this old guy was not good at frontal combat, and his overall strength might not even be as good as that of the kobold camp.
Guy, his magic is probably all about low-level magic, plus making scrolls and potions.
Otherwise, if he had cast a few fireball spells and cast an invisibility spell on himself, he would not have been blocked in the valley by dozens of greenskins. In the end, he would have to rely on summoning creatures to survive, or even become seriously ill.
The random doctor assigned the task to two half-elves who had just entered the game.
If he hadn't accepted this mission by coincidence in the end, this old guy would have shed his skin even if he didn't die.
What's more, I am not alone. Don't talk about anything else. Donna's arrows alone are enough for this old guy to drink a pot!
After a few casual words of courtesy, probably because he saw that Li Wei did not have any suspicion or intention to accuse, the old mage's mood became more stable, and he unexpectedly agreed to Li Wei's invitation and walked into a certain room in the tavern together.
In a private room.
You must know that this is a very rare thing for the native mages. In order to keep their thinking clear and their magic stable, they rarely drink. This can also show from the side that this old guy is really happy now.
The businessman Tros next to him also saw this, so he began to play the role of a bartender perfectly, and soon made the old mage drunk and promised to a supply agreement with him.
At the same time, I don’t know whether it was because he really drank too much or felt guilty. When Levi tried to trade with the other party using the rubies and other trophies he got from the devil, the old mage quickly agreed, except for some potions and
In addition to replenishing the scroll, Levi also successfully obtained a brand new magic from the other party.
Not only is it level 3, it is also a skill book that can be learned and used directly without any learning process, and it is also very growth-prone!
Ma Youfu's Micrometeor:Level 3
Active skill, consumes 50 points of magic to summon 6 micro meteors flying around you. You can designate 1-2 micro meteors to fly to any target within 100 meters every second. When you reach the destination or touch any object on the way,
, the miniature meteor will explode, causing one bludgeoning damage and one fire damage to the target (based on the sum of your intelligence and level). Other enemies within two meters of the explosion diameter will suffer half of the fire damage.
After you reach level 5/3, for every 2/1 level your level/class increases, you can spend an additional 15 magic points to summon 2 more miniature meteors.
Note: You will not be able to use any bows, crossbows, muskets, javelins, slings, darts, or other long-range projectile weapons until all micro-meteors have been launched.
Requirements for use: Intelligence 12, level 5/3, elemental specialization - fire, elemental specialization - earth, focus on spellcasting.
Limited profession: Mage.
Almost immediately after seeing this series of instructions, Levi was sure that this magic could accompany him throughout the game.
I am now at level 5. I have 12 points of intelligence after adding all points of intelligence. In addition, I have the high elf's talent of magic penetration, the newly obtained fire thrower bracelet, and other equipment. As long as I hit the target correctly, a miniature meteor will
It can easily cause about 20 points of bludgeoning damage and about 20 points of fire damage.
There are a total of 6 such miniature meteors, which theoretically can cause about 240 points of damage, which is enough to instantly kill ordinary level 3 troops. With his current magic limit, he can use it at least 4 times, which is nearly a thousand points of damage.
Not to mention the accompanying range of fire damage every time.
Coupled with summoning creatures, this even gave him the possibility to kill a team of jackals by himself!
More importantly, most low-level magic has a damage limit. For example, Levi's Burning Hand, which has been used many times, can only cause up to 20 points of damage, whether it is equipment bonus, racial talent, or other specialties.
, it is impossible to break through this limitation, but this Ma Youfu's micro meteor has no similar prompts, which means that it has almost unlimited growth potential.
In the later stage, if more than ten or twenty miniature meteors are summoned at once, and each one can cause dozens of points of damage, the effect will be too explosive.
Although it is a level 3 magic, ordinary level 4 and level 5 magic may not be as good as it, and its value may not be lower than that of the duet!
Originally, he was dissatisfied and resentful towards the old mage, thinking that he had deceived him, but when he obtained this magic, his anger dissipated a lot.
Although this was not given to me for free by the other party, the fact that it could be given to me such a powerful magic was enough to show the sincerity of the other party.
And it also made his vague contempt for the old mage disappear completely. Since he was willing to give such magic to himself, even if the old mage did not learn this magic, he must still have the same level of power, otherwise he would
It’s impossible to give it up to yourself!
The only pity is that I haven't met the study requirements for the time being, but it's not a big problem. Tomorrow is the last day of the regional mission. After the mission is over, I can use the military merit points at will. How many points can I redeem?
A specialty is also a piece of cake.
Li Wei finally understood why some people like to catch a sheep, because some sheep not only have a lot of wool, but they are also really good!
After thinking about it, Levi decided to selectively tell the other party what happened today.
After listening to his narration, the old mage, who was drunk and blurry, frowned: "There are traces of demons in the rocky highlands?"
Levi nodded. Although there was no more actual evidence, the name Purgatory Jackal already said a lot. Jackals are definitely related to demons. I just don't know whether they use each other or one of them is dominant. I don't know which one.
What role did Hogg play?
After asking for more details, the old mage frowned more and more, and the drunkenness in his eyes quickly faded away, which made Li Wei a little surprised and a little alert at the same time.
The old mage was in a state of drunkenness and confusion just now. Was he really drunk, or was he pretending to be drunk?
Was the transaction between the two parties something he did unconsciously, or did he want to take the opportunity to compensate himself?
If it's the former, that's it. If it's the latter, then the dangers attached to this duet may be more serious than I expected.
But no matter what, now that the deal has been reached and I have received this powerful magic, no matter how powerful the enemy is, I will not hesitate to fight!
"Master Li Wei, you did a good job this time, but you have to be more cautious next time. The fly demons are not only good at this, they also have a special talent called life siphoning. As the name suggests, they attack through their disgusting mouthparts.
Any living entity hit by this move will be harmed, and the fly demon will regain its life and mana."
Levi nodded, isn't this similar to the skill attached to the staff?
Seeing that Levi seemed a little unimpressed, the old mage then added: "And this attack is not based on their intelligence, but based on the difference between the charm of the fly demon and yours, so it is often difficult to defend against. A 1 point difference in charm
, you can restore its 5 points of life. Once the number of fly demons increases, it will be a nightmare."
The charm value of mages is generally not high, because they rely on intelligence. If you really want to find someone with high charm, you have to find a druid or warlock who specializes in animal companions.
The former is because high charisma can better tame and command their animal companions, while the latter is a spellcasting profession like mages, but it is difficult for warlocks to learn new magic.
They rely on their innate bloodline, and they tap into the potential of their bloodline to improve their spellcasting abilities. The most obvious thing is that the higher their strength, the higher their charm, and the better-looking they are.
Of course, this is not absolute. God's Chosen Heroes are very obvious examples. With Levi's face, if he is not a God's Chosen Hero but an aborigine, he will definitely not have only 5 points of charm.
So when he heard this, Levi laughed instead: "How charming can it be to look like a fly demon? They are just big flies in the shape of humans."
The old mage also laughed: "Maybe the aesthetics of demons are different from ours. The charm of adult fly demons is basically 10 points at least."
Levi suddenly became speechless. It was only nine o'clock for Donna now. Could it be that in the eyes of many demons, any big fly would be more beautiful than her?
As expected, they are lunatics and demons from the chaotic camp, and they are never easy to guess.
After thinking about it, he took out the dark parchment roll again and asked the other party to help him take a look.
He was indeed a little worried at first. If the old mage was a greedy evil mage, he might use the power of the parchment to do some bad things. After all, the name of the thing clearly indicated its effect.
But when he was just drinking, he hinted at the businessman Tros without any trace, and then the other party immediately used the opportunity of drinking to flatter him, and by the way, he told almost all the details about the old mage.
All in all, although the old mage has always been relatively lonely and mysterious before, he still has some reputation in the neighborhood.
He lives in no fixed place and looks for materials used to make magic scrolls and magic potions everywhere. As a result, he has helped many humans, half-elves and even dwarves who encountered danger in the wild. Therefore, several villages have invited him.
But they were all rejected by him.
As an aboriginal mage who relies on his strength and wisdom, he is neutral like most of his kind, and likes to help others wherever he can. Some people speculate that he should be of the neutral and good camp, so he is fairly trustworthy.
After seeing things clearly, the old mage was immediately shocked. After taking a deep look at Li Wei, he said in a very serious tone: "This is an evil ritual used by demons. Master Li Wei, maybe I need to talk to the mage in the town."
Contact the guild, and if it can be confirmed, I will probably give you some rewards, but in the meantime, please be careful in your actions, the actions of the demons are not simple."
After a slight hesitation, he continued: "In addition, I see that your fellow ranger does not seem to have an animal companion yet. If you have a chance, you can go to the military camp and have a look. Your fellow tribesmen seem to have just trained one today.
An extremely fine and rare white lion."
"In addition, if you or your subordinates are interested, maybe I will be willing to recruit a successor disciple in the future."
Levi suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly. This old mage actually knew what was going on in the high elf military camp. He was indeed not simple.
And why do the last two sentences feel a bit like explaining the funeral arrangements?
