The room, which was tightly locked with iron locks, was already covered with dust, one side of the wall had been smoked black by flames, and half of the ceiling had been collapsed by the destructive explosion.
The three of them looked around and saw that some furniture, such as study chairs, bookcases, and stone beds, were scorched or exploded. The most eye-catching thing was the charred black iron box at the foot of the bed.
Treasure chest!
Rockbreaker Witte's eyes lit up and he subconsciously walked towards the treasure chest.
However, before he could take the second step, an extremely powerful negative energy erupted from the front of the bed. Then, an illusory spirit floated up from under the floor and stopped in front of the gray dwarf wanderer.
The scarlet eyes were full of burning anger.
Then, a low voice of suppressed anger sounded in the ears of the three Rennes:
"Your existence offends me, and your lives will be taken away! Living people, my treasures only belong to me, and you should not come to take them away!"
Undead creatures, bound spirits!
Seeing the spirit body in front of him that barely maintained its human form, Ren frowned slightly.
The wraith is an incorporeal creature born of evil and darkness.
"Yes, the Spell Factory. Back then, the Phandalin Mine was jointly mined by humans and dwarves. This was the residence of the mages who came to visit and inspect the mine. The main road in the middle, which needs to pass through the underground river, leads to the depths of the mine.
place, as for the last mine tunnel, it is
Point to the Spell Factory. This is where natural magic power is used to strengthen dwarf weapons and dwarf items. The alien creature summoned by the wild creatures is entrenched in the factory. Your task is very simple, which is to destroy it and take it back.
Spell Factory!”
Rockbreaker Thorin said righteously, and Renn on the side also nodded quickly.
"Very good. Your task is also very simple. Kill the alien creature hiding in the spell factory, and then the reward will be yours. Remember, a mortal, I, the great Mermesk, can sense whether the life around me is
Existence, don’t try to cheat and get rewards! Great people like me don’t have that much patience!”
The minimum challenge level of the spirit binding is level 5, which is not something that the current trio can fight against.
"Negotiation successful."
In the end, Thorin the Rockbreaker took out a scroll from his dimensional bag with a pained look on his face and placed it in front of Mermesk.
Renn blinked his eyes and silently took two steps back.
The spirit-bound voice gradually became a little impatient.
"Magic Missile Scroll, nice stuff!"
Seeing that this group of adventurers had agreed to come in uninvited, Mermesk nodded with satisfaction.
Not making up your mind is not because you don't dare, it's just because you can't win for the time being.
Without opening the scroll, he just glanced briefly and identified what scroll it was.
"Powerful undead, we have no intention of offending you, let alone robbing you of your treasures."
Occasionally, some newly born spirit spirits may retain some memories of their lives as mortals in the form of shadow echoes. These memories will allow the spirit spirits to unconsciously guard their most important belongings during their lifetime, or when thinking of the past
In friendship or love, suppress your anger towards the living.
A low roar came from the spirit binding's mouth.
"Mr. Mermesk, how can we, who are as weak as us, dare to attack a treasure that is as powerful as you? Do you think so?"
Looking at the treasure chest behind the spirit-binder Mermesk, Rockbreaker Witte felt quite unwilling.
At the same time, rows of small characters appeared in Ren's field of vision.
After listening to Mermesk's brief introduction, Rockbreaker Thorin felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
And brothers Ren and Rockbreaker have no choice.
What does paying tribute have to do with a pauper warrior like him? Even if blood is to be shed, it should be these two gray dwarves who will do it.
Spell factory?
Not only Ren, but also the well-informed Rockbreaker Thorin, the captain of the slave-catching team, also discovered this.
"You successfully persuaded the spirit spirit Mermesk to temporarily give up the idea of launching an attack on you."
"No, Mr. Mermesk, we have absolutely no intention of taking advantage of your treasure!"
If you want to kill this bound spirit, at least one of the three people must answer here.
"Your negotiation skill increases by 1 point, and your bluffing skill increases by 4 points."
Even though they had ghost weapons in their hands that could specifically attack the undead, the gray dwarf warriors still did not dare to act rashly.
"Mortals, the great mage Mermesk gives you an opportunity to pay tribute to a magic item to prove that you are not here to covet my treasure, and in exchange for your miserable souls."
Before becoming a wraith, Mermesk was a powerful mage and was very good at valuing magic items, even now that he has become an undead.
Rockbreaker Thorin suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked cautiously.
But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. If they don't want to become a ghost, they can only pay for their lives.
"Mr. Wizard, are you saying that there is a branch road that leads to the spell factory, not the mining area?"
Obviously, that iron box was an extremely important thing to this bound spirit during its lifetime.
The scarlet eyes of the binding spirit glanced at the three of them. After a moment, he seemed to agree with Ren's statement, and then he slowly said:
As the elder brother, Thorin the Rockbreaker knows better than anyone how greedy his brother is for money.
This is really a fool...
The aura of this bound spirit was extremely powerful, far beyond what the ghouls and skeletons they encountered along the way could compare to.
After Mermesk's eyes flickered for a while, he slowly lowered his height, floated in front of the three of them, and said:
"For the sake of your sincerity, I am willing to give you a small task. Kill my enemies, and you can share part of my knowledge and take away part of the coins or gems of equivalent value."
Putting away the scroll, the scarlet color in Mermesk's eyes weakened a lot. Apparently, he was quite satisfied with the tributes of the three people.
"Charisma check successful."
This is an order, but also a threat.
"Well, aren't you here to kill Memesk and steal my treasure?"
The most important task of their brothers is to search for the same kind who escaped deep into the mine, not to hunt for treasure. There is no point in spending their limited power on this powerful spirit binding.
They hate all living creatures, and they also hate the light that nourishes living creatures. Although made of darkness, wraiths still have some human form.
Renn is even more fortunate that this spirit has not mutated into a fear-binding spirit with a challenge level of 11. Otherwise, if the three of them met each other, they would be instantly killed by each other, and their souls would be ejected from the body.
It is torn out and becomes a ghost controlled by the other party. It will never be reincarnated.
When the Rock Breaker brothers heard this, their faces turned as black as coal.
When Rock Breaker Witte heard these words, his eyes widened and he spoke first before his brother spoke:
"Dear Mr. Mermesk, we are willing to serve you!"
As Ren said this, he was complaining crazily in his heart.
He pulled his brother behind him and said in a deep voice:
That was valued by a powerful undead creature. There must be many valuable things in it!
But when he wanted to speak, his brother stopped him with a stern look.
Thorin the Rock Breaker frowned, glanced at his brother, and said nothing, because he knew that it was too late to say anything now, and he could only wait and see what the undead's mission was before saying anything else.
However, seeing the spirit spirit standing in front of the gray dwarf rogue and roaring to protect the iron box behind him, Ren immediately understood that this spirit spirit was barely able to communicate.
Oh my god, the spell factory!
He just came to the surface and encountered such a good thing. Could it be that the lucky lady was looking after him?
Breathing out a breath, Rockbreaker Thorin nodded sharply.
"Master Mage, please rest assured, we will definitely destroy that alien creature!"
