Chapter 149 Gargoyle, Return to the South, Props Decomposition
Leaving White and Guderian temporarily in Barton's office, Moriarty followed the mid-level mage to a locked warehouse door on the third floor of the headquarters. Through a simple magic circle barrier, Barton opened
The magic lock on the door, and then walked in one after another with Moriarty.
In the warehouse, the light is a little darker than outside, but it can still be seen that this is a large room. Rows of huge iron boxes of different sizes are arranged in rows and columns.
.It is like a group of soldiers waiting for review, standing quietly. Because of the existence of the automatic cleaning magic circle, there is no dust or spiders or mice in the room, making it look clean and dry.
After looking through a row of tags embedded in the wall at the door, Barton strode deeper into the warehouse, finally stopping in front of a huge iron cabinet. Then he checked the number on one side of the cabinet again.
The mid-level mage reached out and slowly pulled out the entire iron cabinet.
"That's it." Barton pointed to the open cabinet and stepped back, leaving the space for Moriarty.
"Thank you." Moriarty nodded, took a step forward, and looked carefully.
Sure enough, as introduced in the catalogue, what appeared in front of Moriarty was a complete magical puppet - a gargoyle.
Speaking of gargoyles, before the end of the ice, they were the magic golems that Brakada mages were most familiar with and had the highest ownership rate. Its shape was half demon and half beast, usually as tall as half a man, with bat wings as wings and goat horns as
It has the face of a demon and four sharp claws, as if it was made up of various terrifying beings. Because most gargoyles are made of granite, and combined with the special structure of the magic circle and the magic crystal drive inside the puppet,
Therefore, it has both flexibility and sturdiness, and can be said to be one of the mage's favorite combat partners.
But it is a pity that in the terrifying energy storm that swept across the entire plane detonated by the Ice Sword and the Doomsday Blade, almost all types of magic puppets, including gargoyles, were completely destroyed. And
After nearly two hundred years of great decline in magical civilization, the alchemical drawings of magic puppets have basically disappeared. So that the new generation of alchemists who have grown up since then can only restore low-quality "
The imitation gargoyle puppet comes. Not only is this poor imitation very expensive, but most importantly, its combat effectiveness is also far from the original gargoyle in historical records. So much so that in Brakada today, almost
Few mages are willing to use copycat puppets anymore.
But the gargoyle in front of Moriarty is obviously not a new thing made in modern times. Even just out of intuition, he can already conclude that this black magic puppet must have experienced the ice apocalypse and luckily survived to this day.
cherished antiques.
Stretching out his right hand and gently touching the surface of the gargoyle, Moriarty's eyes flashed with surprise again.
"It's not made of rock!?"
Moriarty slowly squatted down and quickly rubbed his fingernails on the surface of the magic puppet. The tentacles were extremely smooth and extremely hard, without the roughness or friction of granite.
"Master Barton, can you tell me the origin of this puppet?" Moriarty stood up, looked at the mid-level mage and asked.
"This...I'm not very clear about this. I only know that when the guild headquarters moved to Star Street two hundred years ago, it was already on the moving manifest. But all the time, the mages in the guild have been unable to successfully activate it, even including several
Alchemist Harry, who died ten years ago, was also unable to decipher the secret of this gargoyle. Therefore, the guild sealed it in the warehouse for a long time." Barton recalled carefully for a while and replied: "So, Master Moriarty,
How do you feel after watching it?"
"I also think this gargoyle is very strange, like a huge puzzle, very interesting." Moriarty considered the sentence and said: "If possible, I hope to buy it for further research.
analyze."
"Yes." The mid-level mage nodded. Moriarty's thoughts were in line with the attitude a young alchemist should have: "That's no problem."
With Barton's permission, Moriarty immediately put the gargoyle puppet into his space pocket, and then left the warehouse with the mid-level mage. Back in the office, Barton took out two more spell learning scrolls and handed them to him.
After confirming that it was correct, Moriarty paid the mid-level mage a total of nearly 30,000 Erathian gold coins in cash. After the transaction was completed, the two carefully discussed the details of the cooperation between the guild and the Earth Studio, and Moriarty
He said goodbye to the mid-level mage with a smile, and left the Moon River Guild with his two followers. Barton personally escorted the other party out of the headquarters gate, then quickly returned to the office alone, planning to report the matter to the guild president as soon as possible.
"Mage is really a costly job. Two small scrolls cost thirty thousand gold coins. Your father's severance package was reduced by more than half in one go." Sitting in the carriage, the dwarf had been holding back for a long time.
He immediately started shouting, looking distressed.
"It cost a little more. So for today's dinner, we will only eat meat and no wine." Moriarty slowly sat down, nodded, and humbly said to the dwarf seriously.
"Eh..." When he heard that he was not allowed to drink at night, Guderian immediately withered and was too pitiful to say anything.
After only resting for one night at Standwell, without making any unnecessary stops, the three of them turned around and headed back south. In just over twenty days, Moriarty's carriage once again drove into Fort Ford.
Just over two months later, there was still no sign of Patrice in the Roland Bar, and even Trish suddenly disappeared. White asked other waiters, but the replies he received were all vague, as if no one knew about Green.
Why is the girl with the eyes absent or where has she gone? In desperation, besides being secretly worried, White can't think about it.
It took two days for Moriarty to find a caravan in the fortress that also planned to go to Bracada Azure City in the near future. After some negotiation and payment of the fee, Moriarty's carriage went smoothly.
Joined the ranks of the caravan. Even in order to minimize the target, White was asked to abandon the horse and cart, and ride a carriage through the hurricane wasteland with Moriarty and Guderian. The silver-bearded dwarf seemed very happy about this, because
Along the way, there was one more person who could listen to what he had to say.
However, compared to Guderian, who was always talking in high spirits, and White, who looked innocent and was forced to act as an audience, after the carriage left Fort Ford and entered the wilderness with the caravan, Moriarty was always immersed in a strange meditative state. Often, he was in a strange state of meditation.
He sat motionless in the carriage all day, not even opening his eyes or saying a word. White was very careful about this situation at first, but he didn't see anything unusual in the past few days, so he
Relax. But whenever the silver-bearded dwarf chatted loudly to himself, White would stare at him and suppress his voice to avoid disturbing the mage who was meditating aside.
But in fact, whether Guderian was noisy or quiet, it had no impact on Moriarty. Because the mage's mind had already been focused on the crystal book in his soul.
Magic Item: Black Quartz Gargoyle (Magic Golem);
Producer: Peak Jim;
Grade: high quality;
Quality: Complete (energy exhausted);
Content (function): Different from ordinary rock gargoyles, the great goblin alchemist Jem used hard black crystals to make his magic puppet and used a special magic circle circuit to drive it. This is not only
This makes his work more solid and strong, and also has flight stability that surpasses all other gargoyles of the same era, and is even enough to fly high in the windy sky to fight with giant dragons.
Note: This is an era-changing alchemical work. Although it is still not as good as those treasures, it can be called a small milestone in the history of magic puppets. But if you want to make such a magic puppet, the key is not in the alchemy array.
UP. What do you think?
This is the true appearance of the strange gargoyle puppet bought from the Moon River Guild, and its maker, Peake, was also a very famous alchemist in the puppet field in Brakada before the end of the ice.
Hero. When Moriarty put the gargoyles in the crystal book and got the above information on the night he harvested them, he was stunned in surprise. In addition to the previous "Serena's Secret Eye", in just a short time
In one month, Moriarty actually obtained two relics inherited from a powerful hero five hundred years ago. He almost wondered whether the Moon River Guild was manipulating this behind the scenes. After all, these two items were related to
This mages guild has a tight or loose relationship. However, after analyzing it for a long time, he could not find a suitable reason to explain the connection. In the end, Moriarty could only attribute all this to fate, or perhaps
Call it a pure coincidence.
Different from the overall appearance in the Mages Guild warehouse, in the crystal book at this time, most of the sunglasses gargoyle has been broken down into the most basic puppet structures, floating quietly. Only the head of the gargoyle
It still tenaciously maintains its complete form. Only a colorful brilliance tightly surrounds the puppet's head, and as the brilliance continues to flicker bright and dark, traces of special magic fluctuations continue to seep out from the gargoyle's mind, and together with it,
The surface of the originally tight-fitting head also slowly revealed tiny gaps, which continued to deepen and expand. It was as if the colorful brilliance was the gentlest butcher, using an invisible blade to separate the last piece of the body.
.
And this is another legendary function opened by the Crystal Book after continuously obtaining new spells: prop decomposition.

Thanks to the book friends of "Dandian's Most Ai", "Killing Spree", "Fuji Tianjun", "Liujin Like Water", "Zhiyuan", and "The Host of the bloody building" for their rewards.
In addition, I have read the thousand-word review by Zhiyuan Book Friend, and it is pertinent and accurate. The foreshadowing scenes are indeed a bit long, but fortunately, the hero's battle is about to begin. Many of the previous foreshadowings will also be filled in one by one.
Stay tuned.
Please support me by collecting and recommending this book during the Spring Festival, thank you!!!
