The Necromancer died and was successfully raised to another level. Sun Ran was very happy.
He shook off the ice chips in his right hand. This hand released the frost rune with his bare hands. It was frozen to the point of unconsciousness. It would probably take half a day to recover.
Walking to the corpse of the Necromancer, Sun Ran first picked up the ebony staff that the other party had dropped.
The staff is an extension of the mage's hand and can cast spells instead of both hands. It is an essential spell-casting tool for senior mage.
Because the master is dead, the undead light ball gathered at the top of the ebony staff has dissipated and become dim.
Sun Ran took the staff, the white light on his hand lit up, and the frost data flowed along the lines on the staff to the top, and soon reassembled into a ball of frost exuding white cold mist.
From now on, he can rely on this frost ball to release the highest level of spells without hurting his body.
It's a pity that he doesn't have a legal second-level spell at hand, so he can't use the full power of this staff.
Although he can know level two spells, even legendary and mythical level spells, those are all invisible.
Forget it, just be patient in order to be able to live in the Zenith District in the future.
After trying to release an ice stab technique and looking at the effect, Sun Ran glanced at his mouth. This staff did not have any additional abilities, it was just a basic second-level staff.
This level of alchemy is really unsightly.
Sun Ran put away his staff and rummaged through the corpse of the Necromancer, but he was still disappointed. The mage was completely destitute. Apart from a black cloth robe stained with blood, he had no legacy left to Sun Ran.
He looked up at the sky and saw that it was getting late. Sun Ran stopped delaying and started walking towards Baiyun City.
The population of Baiyun City is approximately 30,000. In the dragon world, the size of this city is not small.
Although it was attacked by a giant dragon a few days ago and there were many fires, but fortunately with Shu'er's protection, the casualties were not too many, just over a hundred.
Even more fortunately, the giant dragon was also killed by the Baron, which gave the residents of Baiyun City a great sense of security.
So in less than half a day, Baiyun City calmed down from the panic and returned to its former bustle.
In the evening, Sun Ran arrived at Baiyun City.
At the gate of Baiyun City, he saw a bloody dragon's head hanging on the gate by a thick iron chain. The dragon's head still had a ferocious aura. It was very shocking to be displayed like this.
Sun Ran looked up and saw that the broken end of the dragon's head was smooth and flat without any hesitation, indicating that it had been cut off with a powerful force.
"The strength is not bad." Sun Ran smiled.
When he arrived at the gate, he was stopped by the guards and asked to pay a city entry tax. This fee will be used to recover Baiyun City's wounds faster.
It's a disguised form of exploitation.
Since he had no money with him, Sun Ran had to take off a rabbit from his waist and give it to the guard to pay the city entry tax before he could enter the city smoothly.
As soon as he entered the city, he heard many stories about Baron Charles' dragon slaying, and there was a lot of praise and praise.
Sun Ran was worried about not being able to find Charlie before, but in this situation, it is much easier.
After asking a random passerby, Sun Ran got the address of the Baron's Mansion and took out a pheasant as reward. The passerby became Sun Ran's guide and led him to the Baron's Mansion.
go.
As the guide walked, he shook his head and sighed: "The Baron's mansion was also destroyed by the dragon. Although the Baron killed the dragon to take revenge, he hasn't shown up yet, and even the city lord can't find him. I really hope he doesn't want to
Something happened."
Sun Ran understood clearly after hearing this, and Charlie must also know that the dragon attack was not accidental. After slaying the dragon, he naturally hid.
As for where he is hiding, it is unknown. He will not leave Baiyun City after all.
The guide took Sun Ran to the ruins of the Baron's Mansion and left happily carrying the pheasant.
Sun Ran stood in front of a piece of broken wood and ruins, looking left and right, searching carefully, trying to find some clues.
Charlie knew that helpers would come looking for him, and now that he is hiding, it is very likely that he will leave some hints.
"Stop looking. This place was completely burned and there are no clues." A woman's voice came over.
Sun Ran followed the sound and saw a woman wearing an ordinary gray cloth dress looking at him in the other direction of the Baron's Mansion.
The woman is around twenty-four or five years old, with an average-to-upper appearance. Her figure is covered by a long skirt, so she can't see clearly. She only knows that her legs are very slender. The most outstanding thing about her is a pair of eyes, which reveal the bright light of intelligence.
Impressive.
Sun Ran glanced at her, squinted his eyes, covering up the faint golden light, then moved his eyes away from her, glanced at a remote corner not far away, and quickly turned back.
Just now, he quietly activated a Taoist technique, 'Fire Eyes and Golden Eyes', which is a first-level auxiliary Taoist technique that allows him to see through illusions.
There is someone in the corner, but he uses invisibility to hide his figure.
"My name is Russell. What do you call me?" Sun Ran asked. He was not prepared to expose the other party. As for Russell, it was his name in this world.
"Jasmine. I'm also a guard." The woman introduced herself.
Sun Ran searched carefully in the ruins again, and after confirming that there were indeed no clues here, he smiled and said: "You and I have traveled a long way here, so we must be tired. How about we find a place to rest?"
"Okay." Jasmine nodded, but she did not walk towards Sun Ran. Instead, she walked towards the corner where Sun Ran was looking. When she reached the corner, she paused for a moment before walking towards Sun Ran.
"Sorry, it was just my illusion." Jasmine smiled apologetically. Her real body was hiding in the corner using invisibility. The illusion just now walked over and overlapped with her real body. The illusion was canceled without anyone noticing.
This woman's illusion was very clever, and Sun Ran admired it very much: "Being cautious is a virtue."
The two of them walked to a nearby tavern. Along the way, when Sun Ran saw someone, he pulled him to ask about Baron Charlie's whereabouts. He even asked several guards about the situation. Although he got negative answers, he was still enjoying it.
.
Jasmine was a little strange: "You can't get the answer. Charlie is a Bronze Orderer. If you have to hide, they can't know."
Sun Ran smiled: "I know. But we are in the dark now, and Charlie is in the dark. He might be waiting for us too. I asked all the way just to tell him that we are here."
"Oh, you are asking for directions by throwing stones." Jasmine understood, but then she frowned: "But this also tells the enemy our whereabouts."
No one can guarantee that there are no assassins sent by saboteurs in Baiyun City.
"The opponent already knows where we are and can't hide." Sun Ran smiled.
At this time, the sky in Baiyun City is covered with dark clouds, and God's Punishment disappears. Here, there are definitely no attacks like the dragon. There are still a large number of guards in the city to maintain order. The opponent cannot attack in a big way, it can only be a secret assassination.
.
This kind of assassination is not dangerous if handled carefully.
When he reached the door of the tavern, Sun Ran touched his pockets and said awkwardly: "I don't have any money."
There were still a few prey around his waist, but he didn't have any money. The player he was trying to seize was a hunter, and hunters naturally don't bring money with them when they go hunting.
Jasmine pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't worry, I brought it."
She took out a bulging money bag, which she had brought from a bandit den, and it was filled with gold coins.
After entering the tavern, Sun Ran ordered some drinks and took out the rabbits and pheasants he had hunted and handed them to the tavern owner.
"Please help me dispose of it. The rabbit fur and pheasant tail feathers belong to you. It will be counted as the processing fee. We will eat the meat later." Sun Ran said.
"No problem." The boss agreed. It is very common for guests to bring their own game.
After Jasmine paid for the drinks, the two found a seat and sat down.
Before drinking, a light blue light appeared on Jasmine's fingertips. She flicked the wine into the wine. After seeing that there was no abnormal reaction, she handed the wine to Sun Ran.
"I use 'Detect Toxin'. This wine is not poisonous, so feel free to drink it."
"Thanks."
Poison detection, a zero-level auxiliary spell, is very useful for detecting ready-made toxins, but the loopholes are also obvious and can be easily circumvented.
The two of them drank and waited patiently.
"How long do we have to wait here?" After waiting for a while, Jasmine asked.
The noisy environment in the tavern made her very uneasy. Except for illusion, she didn't know any attack skills. If someone came to attack her at this time, she would definitely be doomed.
"Wait until Charlie finds us." Sun Ran was very calm.
"Are you sure he will come? You know, the longer we wait here, the more dangerous we will be. The assassin will find us soon." This is what Jasmine is worried about.
Sun Ran gently shook the wine in his hand and said softly: "The assassin has been here for a long time. He is just looking for an opportunity to take action."
A qualified saboteur requires extremely keen observation, and Sun Ran naturally possesses this. He had already discovered the assassin's clues, but he just didn't reveal them.
"What did you say?! Where is he? Where is he?" Jasmine's voice was low and her tone was a little panicked. Her eyes looked left and right, and her body instinctively began to transform, preparing to hide.
But her transformation was interrupted by Sun Ran's hand patting her shoulder: "Don't worry, little girl. Everything will be fine."
After a while, Sun Ran had roughly figured out the real details of Jasmine. She was a little clever and could adapt well to situations, but she obviously lacked experience. It was estimated that her real body was not very old, at least not as old as the body that was seized.
"Sir, madam, your food."
The tavern maid came over carrying dinner plates. On one plate was fragrant rabbit meat, and on the other plate was a plump pheasant with a golden-brown skin.
The maid was very beautiful and full of charm. Sun Ran turned to look at her, then at the food on the plate. After a pause, he stretched out his hand to Jasmine: "Give me a gold coin."
"What for?" Jasmine was confused, but she still gave it.
Sun Ran took the gold coin, suddenly reached out and slapped the maid's straight butt hard, and before the other party got angry, he threw the gold coin over: "Your tip."
The maid immediately turned her anger into joy, gave Sun Ran a wink, twisted her waist and walked away.
Jasmine was very unhappy: "You actually used my money to flirt with women. You have to pay me back in the future!"
"I'll give you a life." Sun Ran smiled.
"What do you mean?" Jasmine's attention was immediately diverted.
"Don't you know magic? Detect rabbit meat and chicken." Sun Ran said with a smile.
Jasmine followed the instructions, and after using the spell, she said doubtfully: "It's not poisonous."
If it is poisonous, her spell will display a green light on the food. The stronger the poison, the richer the green light.
"Mix them up and test again."
Jasmine followed the instructions and rubbed the rabbit meat hard on the pheasant meat. Then she cast the spell again, and the light shone down. The place where the two touched suddenly showed a strong green light, indicating that there was a highly toxic substance here.
"..." Jasmine opened her eyes wide and looked at Sun Ran in horror: "How did you know?"
In fact, Sun Ran saw this with his sharp eyes, but he did not explain it. He took out a paper bag with a smile, opened it, and found gray medicinal powder inside. He poured them into wine glasses and stirred them.
"This is the antidote. It was taken from the maid. If you drink this, you will be fine if you eat these again."
After speaking, he took a sip himself, then tore off a chicken leg and ate it with relish.
Jasmine saw that he ate so deliciously, and that he had eaten both rabbit meat and chicken, and was fine. She finally felt relieved, took a sip of wine, and began to enjoy the delicious food.
This is a game anyway, if Sun Ran harms her, she will complain to him as soon as she comes out of the game.
By the time the food was finished, the two of them still showed no signs of poisoning, and the beautiful maid in the tavern had long since disappeared.
This is enough to prove Sun Ran's statement.
Jasmine asked strangely: "How do you know the maid is an assassin?"
"Guessed." Sun Ran smiled with a mysterious look on his face.
"Forget it if you don't say it, smart man!" Jasmine said angrily.
At this moment, the back door of the hotel opened, and a strong man wearing a gray cloth cloak and dressed like a Jedi knight walked in.
As soon as he entered the hotel, he glanced around, saw Sun Ran and Jasmine in the corner, and walked straight over.
