Returning to Sherlock, who had recently been resurrected, Melina was teleported back because she was too far away and stared at her with big eyes.
"It's an accident," Sherlock tried to quibble: "There are a few jellyfish on the beach leading to the ruins of the castle where the 'Lion Hybrid' is, and the water covers the bottomless sea further away.
Yuan, so when I took a detour... after all, the terrain there was too dangerous."
"...Lord Faded One, why are you jumping around with a 'hound pace'?" Melina looked at the "Hound Tusk" carried on Sherlock's shoulder.
"Because he is handsome." Sherlock replied confidently.
"..." Melina was silent for two seconds, looking up and down at Sherlock, who was wearing the light armor of a Greg soldier and holding a strange-shaped sword: "I remember that your 'initial occupation' was 'Wizard'."
"That's right." Sherlock raised his hand and summoned a floating ball of light that followed, illuminating the dark underground prison: "The wizard's spells are pretty easy to use."
"I am just a witch who guides the Faded One, and I will not interfere with how you strengthen yourself, but..." Melina said in an incomprehensible tone: "You will only strengthen when you cannot install some equipment that is not suitable for wizards.
Strength, agility, and the rest of the runes are all enhanced to life. I think that is not the wizard's way of enhancement."
"This is exactly how a wizard adds points," Sherlock replied: "A 'real wizard' does not need to add intelligence."
What he meant was that the wizards of "Hogwarts" were in the "Duel Club". Some guys with obvious lack of intelligence - such as Moriarty's followers - could cast spells faster than some top students.
It's fast, but if the overwhelming offensive fails to work at the beginning, it will almost certainly be lost to improvisation after the tug-of-war.
"Understood, I will include the 'physics wizard' in the intelligence database." Melina nodded.
This doesn't... it actually works. Sherlock originally planned to stop it, but gave up after thinking about it. Anyway, there won't be a second faded person here. Even if it does, the possibility of becoming a "physics wizard" can be ignored.
"Now, it is better to recapture the heirloom sword of the Lord of Moren City as soon as possible," Sherlock said instead, "It is not safe to let Yin Leina stay in the wild all the time, even if she has servants to take care of her."
"Yeah." Melina patted her skirt and stood up.
To become the "Supreme Mage", you need to defeat seven "Fragment Kings" to collect the "Deathly Hallows Fragments", and the nearest one is "The Limbless One" Greg, the city lord of "Stonewell City" in the north.
Maybe he was a good city lord before the Deathly Hallows was broken, but now he is just a lunatic who takes advantage of the "immortality" characteristics that are all over the border and is obsessed with replanting severed limbs.
Cut off other people's limbs and plant them on your own body. Those "limb aristocrats" are the product of this kind of experiment.
This Novice Village BOSS, full of all kinds of death-seeking elements, should be killed first by the Fadeer who is filled with resentment and anger, but Sherlock cannot defeat him - the "Son of Bad Omen", the guard at the city gate.
Excluding the big tree guards, there were a total of three "elite monsters" that would drop runes on the way to Stonewell City, and Sherlock also added them to his life according to the original plan, and then discovered... If
There is no way to kill the enemy, and simply being durable is useless - and it doesn't seem to be very durable either.
After consulting Melina, Sherlock confirmed that there are several "elite monsters" that drop runes wandering in the territory of each "Fragment King". As long as you find these monsters and kill them, you can use the runes.
If you strengthen yourself, you may be able to defeat the blocking BOSS more easily.
And this is the reason why he appeared in Moren City on the peninsula south of Stonewell City.
As for "Hound's Tusk", it is a reward obtained after killing dangerous prisoners in an arcane prison on the way here.
Finding the sword passed down from home was a task assigned by the local city lord. When he was attacked by a dwarf, ugly "demi-human" with animal characteristics, he asked his reliable entourage to escort his daughter Yin Leina to escape, while he defended the castle.
After a bitter battle, he struggled to defend a corner of the castle, but the family heirloom sword was taken away by the demihuman leader "Lion Hybrid", so he asked Sherlock, who was just here to confirm his safety for his daughter, to help retrieve it.
As for Sherlock, as long as there is Rune, everything is easy.
――――
"Thank you, Faded One, this is the sword that our Moen family has passed down from generation to generation. If I lose it, I will not have the face to see my ancestors after my death," the breathless Moen City Lord took the sword with an emotional expression.
The main reason is that the attributes of this sword are too bad, the equipment requirements are high, and the feel is not good. Otherwise, it is not impossible to just leave this task alone.
Of course, it could also be that Tai Cai, a lion hybrid, was almost killed by the three ghost wolves he summoned.
"So, can you pick up your daughter, Miss Yin Lena, now?" Sherlock glanced at the newly arrived 10,000 runes due to the completion of the task, and continued to ask.
"Not yet. Morn City has suffered major damage. I need to take charge of the repair work. I can only ask you to make another trip to pick her up. Wait a minute and I will write her a letter so that she will not doubt your trustworthiness.
Trust me." The Lord of Morn City began to fumble around for paper and pen.
By the way, does he really not know that his daughter is blind?
call--
While Sherlock was bored waiting for the Lord of Morn to write a letter and listening to Melina whispering about the history of Morn, a slight mist gathered and dispersed.
The figure of "Witch Rani" sitting sideways on the broom appeared in the void outside the castle wall, and paused for a few seconds, as if she wanted Sherlock to see clearly. Then, after a brief pause, the broom suddenly started, carrying
The "witch" galloped towards the entrance of the peninsula.
Uh-huh?
Because the timing, movements and gestures were too obvious, Sherlock could come to the conclusion that Yin Leina was in danger without much reasoning.
If you wait for this semi-illiterate to finish writing the letter and then give you some advice, it will definitely be too late.
"There is no need for a letter. We were originally entrusted by her to find you, and she will not doubt us." Sherlock said as he turned over and jumped off the city wall, landing lightly towards the nearest blessing.
Well, this time the Feather Falling Technique actually worked.
When Sherlock rushed to the natural tunnel near the entrance of the peninsula, he happened to see a group of demi-humans surrounding Yin Leina and several followers who were protecting her.
At the same time, the phantom of the witch Rani is hovering in the air, and golden threads invisible to ordinary people are gradually connecting the two.
Obviously, this witch is only interested in Yin Lena. She doesn't even look at her followers who are also in danger. If she fails to arrive in time, this small evacuation team will eventually be wiped out.
, and Yin Leina will obtain the inheritance at the critical moment and become a new "witch".
No, there is no such thing as that if.
Sherlock paused, picked up the "Hound's Tusk", activated the "Hound's Step", and his whole body turned into a bright moonlight and broke into the core area of the mob:
"Let that girl go!"
"Lord Faded One, the hero saves the beauty and handsomeness!"
You used too much force! It felt like you were singing a double yellow!
