The ghost cloak is also unsuccessful. Although it transforms people into a ghost state, it does not become a true spirit. Its invisibility is shadow invisibility, which cannot allow it to enter the etheric plane.
Counting his fingers, Gavin could not find a way to enter the cabin.
Going around and around, at first it was hard to see the crying witch looking for a breakthrough.
That matter was beyond Gavin's control. The only thing he could do was to wait for the Weeping Witch to appear.
When night falls and the moon appears.
The fog shrouding the hut became thicker, and a phantom slowly floated out of the hut.
To be more precise, the fog that shrouded the cabin began to pull away and gather together, forming the phantom of the Weeping Witch.
Seeing that scene, Gavin couldn't help but smile.
My guess was correct. The hut was the anchor point for the Weeping Witch and the medium for her to enter the material plane. Once the hut was destroyed, she would probably be unable to enter the material plane and would be completely lost in the etheric plane.
The Ethereal Plane has another name - the Lost Land.
That proved in disguise that I was looking in the wrong place.
"He begged to kill me!"
The Weeping Witch, who appeared in the phantom image of the ape chat again, found out that her secret magic cabin had been dug out, and she immediately fell into a rage.
With five big characters on his head, he rushed towards Gavin.
Gavin had been prepared for this, so he just stood there, not dodging or evading, and allowed the silent phantom to pass through him.
The cold liquid emanates from the inside to the outside.
The coldness was different from the biting coldness of negative Keliang, but more damp and cold.
That's all. The wrong party is just a phantom made of etheric mist, which can't cause substantial harm to Gavin.
Gavin neither tried to resist nor defend, but just let her scratch and scratch him.
The wrong party is now in a state of rage, and it is useless to try to say anything.
However, Silent Phantom's self-control ability was beyond Gavin's imagination, and it did not last until the power was exhausted.
After only venting for a few seconds, he returned to Gai Wen, and a line of small words in the mist appeared above his head: "What do I want to ask for?"
"He wanted to communicate with me calmly and get what we needed." Gavin did not express his demands on his legs. In those days, he seriously reflected on the way he mistreated the Crying Witch and found that there were big problems.
.
Because from the beginning, he targeted the Netherese magic book, treating the Weeping Witch as an information source and an obstacle.
Just think about what you need, and not what the other party needs, and the communication will naturally end in failure.
The Weeping Witch's request is very simple, that is, let Gavin and the others leave completely and give up exploring the wrong place.
But if you don’t know the fundamental reason behind it, you are afraid of exposing your biggest secret and letting yourself be threatened.
"Let me tell you, how can everyone get what they need?" After her biggest secret was exposed, the Weeping Witch had to re-examine the young man.
It is obvious that the wrong party is well prepared, knows exactly what he wants to ask for, and is measurable and unmatched by ordinary people.
In just a few months, the secrets he had hidden so deeply were revealed.
Since his own body is in the material plane, he must be able to crush it to death, but no problem, according to the progress of the wrong party, the wrong party will not be able to wait until that time, and the wrong party will be able to find a way to break through the hut.
"He has said before that driving them away is not a solution to the symptoms but not the root cause. Why don't they put aside their prejudices and find a way to coexist?" Gavin said eloquently, "Madam, driving them away from here is nothing more than a solution.
Otherwise, your anchor point in the material world is here. Once it is destroyed, you will be lost in the fog.
But even if they leave, I can't stop others from entering. After all, a woman's power in the material plane is limited. With her scary legs alone, she can defeat ordinary people with slightly more powerful professions.
Otherwise, it will have no effect, but will attract unwanted attention.
He was willing to keep that secret for the lady and protect my anchor from any damage."
"What do I want to ask for?" Silent Phantom repeated the first words again.
"Arcanist." Gavin revealed his previous purpose, "He seeks the method to advance to become an Arcanist."
He has not had that purpose from beginning to end. There is no difference whether he obtained it from the Netherese Magic Book or from the Weeping Witch's Leg.
Gavin clearly felt that the silent phantom fluctuated, and seemed to be much more relaxed. There was a kind of mood swing that I had mentioned earlier.
Due to the recent frequent adjustments to Guan Xin Wine, Gavin is particularly sensitive to other people's emotional fluctuations. The Silent Phantom is now a spiritual body, so it is naturally easier to sense.
"He can teach me the method of becoming an arcanist, but otherwise I ask to seal this place again." The small words in the mist appeared above the head of the silent phantom, and at the same time, the wrong leg also pointed to the opened east passage.
That situation made her very insecure.
"No problem, it will be closed tomorrow." Gavin readily agreed.
Anyway, he has no way to enter the hut for a while now. The wrong party has obviously deceived others, and the hut cannot be escaped. If he can open it the first time, it will not be difficult to open it the second time.
"Three months later, here and now." The last line of small words appeared in the silent phantom, and then disappeared again.
With accurate time, it would be a good thing for Gavin to go wrong. He would not have to be crucified here and could go to other things.
After three days of coming to the east, apart from the unshakable enlightenment trees, the remaining time was spent in the abandoned quarry.
Just as Gavin calculated, the further you go, the fewer kobolds you can gather every day. When the total number reaches 500, there are only a few dozen kobolds that can be gathered every day. The labor is not proportional to the effort. Gavin
Just stop this matter and focus on rebuilding the quarry.
As for the miserable appearance of the kobolds in Stone Bridge Hills, if they make a little noise there, the quality of life of those kobolds will improve, and those wild kobolds will take refuge at the door.
Goss brought a strange-looking humanoid creature in front of Gavin, put a lid on the jar and said charmingly: "Lord, with a clever plan and a little trick, the monsters there were forced out. He will not stay here."
Dakar, the leader of the freaks.”
He turned back to the deformed man and said arrogantly: "The person standing in front of me now is Lord Gavin, the King of Dragons and the sacred guardian of the Dragon Oak Territory. If I have any appeals, please tell me.
"
Goss used his actual actions to explain what it means to be a person with two sides.
In front of Gavin, he just nodded and bowed his little legs.
In front of those outsiders, could he be an extremely noble envoy of the lord?
Gavin's eyes couldn't help but fall on the deformed man, his eyes searching.
That man has the upper half of a human body, but the eastern half of a horse.
At first glance, it looks like a centaur, but if you look closely, you will find that it lacks the coordination of a real centaur.
The horse in the eastern half of the body is extremely strong, but it does not look like a human being, and it does not look like an old man.
Where the two meet, there are shocking suture scars.
How about forcibly piecing together half of the bodies of two completely different creatures?
But what's weird is that not only did the wrong party not die, but he could walk like a centaur.
The secret should lie in the strangeness that filled his body. The deformed man in front of him was not a real creature, but half human and half undead. The half of his body that belonged to a human was alive, and the half that belonged to a horse was full of...
The dead object with the power of death is more like a unique death device.
The power of life and death has reached a strange balance in the creature in front of you.
The deformed man named Dakar was so humble in front of Gavin, "Dakar has seen the lord. He came on behalf of the deformed people in the mine. I hope you can let them live. I beg you."
Let go, and they are willing to all move away from this place and never come back again. In return, they are willing to dedicate all their property to the lord."
Even races that are not too smart, such as goblins and kobolds, will compromise when faced with disadvantages, not to mention other intelligent creatures. They will try to negotiate and resolve many things, and they will only act when they have no choice.
force.
Those deformed people are no exception. The young red dragon hovering in the mine is a terrifying existence that they cannot contend with, let alone Gavin who can control it. Using money to exchange for mercy from the wrong party is not the best choice.
"Tell us our story." Gavin did not express his position directly, but asked curiously.
Dakar's face was filled with unconcealable sorrow and indignation: "They are just a group of poor people who were forced to do nothing. That bastard Delroz did something to them that was outrageous to both humans and gods, and turned them into human beings."
Fortunately, he walked into the portal in Didong and never came out again. They took the opportunity to escape from his Didong laboratory.
But their strange appearance has made it impossible for them to return to the human race. He once went there to quarry stones and knew that there was a shelter there, so he fled there. They had nothing to ask for but to survive.
"
"Portal? Do I mean that there is a portal to the east of that villa?" Gavin suddenly realized that if that was not the case, no wonder Gowther's mother dared to buy that building.
After all, the portal is a dead thing, so if you don't take the initiative to go in, there will be no danger.
Even if it leads to an unknown place, for fear of danger coming, it is much easier to restrict a portal than to build one.
If the exploration is successful, the value of a portal will be immeasurable.
"No." Dakar affirmed, "That portal does not appear often, and every time it appears, it is in the form of fog."
Abnormal people are naturally not stingy when it comes to receiving their own information.
"It's just a matter of words to let us leave, but where are we going to go after we leave here?" Gavin asked.
"He doesn't know, they can just take it one step at a time," Dakar said with a look of confusion and grief. "Ordinary people simply can't accept their terrifying appearance. If they appear in front of them, they will treat them as monsters.
They can continue walking into the mountains to find a new place to stay."
"Why don't he give us an option and accept his employment to work for him." Gavin pointed at the abandoned quarry and said, "He plans to rebuild that quarry and use all kobolds. They won't mistake us.
Discrimination, and if we help them deal with some things they are not good at, please ask us to sincerely assist him, and he will ensure that we have no worries about food and clothing, no longer have to be homeless, and no longer have our lives in danger."
Gavin never thought he was a good person, but if he was not a good person, he would not mind helping those disadvantaged people and leaving them a way to survive.
"Lord, are you willing to hire them?" What Dakar showed was not ecstasy, but deep vigilance.
Having been brutally hurt by others, they have a deep sense of defensiveness against others, especially against nobles.
"Whether it is his personal suggestion or not, the choice is up to us. In the next few days, we should also see how he wronged the kobolds. He still has a kind heart to treat the kobolds wrongly. He treated us, a group of poor people, he
Will he harm us for no reason?"
Gavin said calmly, "If he really wants to harm us, he doesn't need to bother at all, he just needs to seal all the entrances to the cave where we are hiding.
We are all mixed up like that, apart from having some labor force, what else is worthy of his plot?"
Dakar fell into silence, thinking carefully about Wan Fang's words.
They couldn't help but recall what they saw and heard in those few days. Although they couldn't get close to observe, judging from the scent wafting in the air and the reactions of the kobolds, it was not difficult to tell that their food was quite good.
Although the working time of the kobolds is not short, it is not far from the unacceptable level. Occasionally, you can hear the kobolds who brought you here yelling and scolding, and rarely you can hear the sound of whips and the like.
The red dragon is not as ferocious as the legend says. Most of it is aloof and does not eat kobolds at will.
Just like what the wrong party said, they are all in such miserable condition. Is there anything worth plotting against them?
Dakar leaned forward and said: "Thank you Lord for your kindness, but after all, it involves the life and death of other people. He cannot make a decision rashly. Please allow him to go back and discuss something with others."
"Go." Gavin waved his legs.
That time when he came to Amphail Village, Gavin's greatest feeling was that he could truly feel his own growth.
Perhaps the enemies I have faced recently are all extraordinary. Even though I have never won a victory before, I have used extraordinary legs in many places, and even if I missed it, I will lose every game.
But among humans, many things that we take for granted are extraordinary and need to be looked up to.
In front of those deformed people, his power has reached an extreme level. Their life and death depend on his thoughts.
Isn't it a very unique feeling that makes people intoxicated without even realizing it? No wonder so many people are addicted to power and can't extricate themselves.
Gavin felt that he also liked that feeling a little bit.
Those freaks make decisions much faster than Gavin expected.
Less than half an hour after returning from Dakar, a group of weird and twisted deformed people walked out of the cave under his leadership and crawled in front of Gavin, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Still disapproving of the man-made centaur from before, he said respectfully: "They are willing to accept the employment of the lord. They do not ask for salary, but they hope to have a place to stay. They will definitely do their best to serve the lord."
There are twenty-three deformed people, Ye Yi, and none of them are the same.
Some have an extra leg and arm on their chests, some have legs all over their heads, some have an extra eye on the back of their heads, etc.
Even if Gavin was mentally prepared, he would still feel uncomfortable. Not to mention, if he were not prepared, he would encounter such a nightmare existence in the wilderness. Ordinary people would definitely be frightened half to death.
The condition of their body modifications is exactly the same as that of the artificial centaur Dakar. The extra parts are all in the nature of death prostheses.
Surprisingly, they are not just decorations, but most of them have unique functions.
For example, the man-made centaur has two strength attributes, the upper half and the eastern half. The strength of the eastern half of the horse not only exceeds that of Yuanji in the upper half, but also exceeds that of most war horses, which gives him extraordinary drag.
Pulling the force, but carrying the force in the middle of the body, is no different from ordinary people.
The deformed man with an extra eye on the back of his head has some properties of a real eye and can see many things that normal eyes cannot.
The one with a full head and no legs has a certain amount of spiritual power.
The crazy necromancer named Delloz obviously wanted to use that unique method to imitate the advantages or special abilities of other species in the presence of humans, and achieved initial success. If not, the deformities caused by it were ignored.
words.
For Gavin, that was a little unexpected surprise.
The crowing of cocks, dogs and thieves can sometimes be put to great use.
Abnormal people are considered a kind of unique resource, and their extraordinary abilities may be needed at some point, so Dakar compiled a detailed list of abilities for him.
Then he told Goss to treat abnormal people the same way he treats normal people.
It's wrong that they don't need special care.
Their unique situation determines it, so if you treat them as normal people, they will follow you wholeheartedly.
After the initial instability of the kobold quarry was resolved, the place began to operate at full capacity, and a large amount of waiting blue-gray stone was mined.
Those stones were not immediately put into the market, instead they were produced for their own use. They were all destroyed on the six-and-a-half-kilometer wilderness trail from the quarry to the Long Road.
A sharpened knife will never stop chopping wood.
Those six and a half kilometers of road belong to sharpening the knife.
Only by paving it flat enough and making it easy to walk can the stones there be transported out more conveniently - they are all real heavy goods.
After the repair work of the Stone Pony Hotel is completed, most of the enlightenment trees that Gavin enlightened here will be moved to the quarry for work, and they will be used as crane loaders.
As for the transportation work, it is left to ordinary horse-drawn heavy trucks. There is no shortage of pastures and horses, which can be made up for by quantity. Especially if there are good roads, the carrying capacity is quite amazing.
It takes time to really see results.
However, due to the characteristics of large-scale infrastructure construction, we have long been accustomed to this error.
