Listening to your words is like listening to your words.
In terms of knowledge and knowledge in the field of magic, these real mages are still much better than myself, a half-way monk.
Li Wen was truly convinced.
What Minister Eric said makes sense, but it's useless.
The rules themselves were not set by Li Wen, Li Wen only vaguely created this skill, and even the fact that this skill judgment can take effect is approved by some rules behind it.
From ancient times to the present, there have been so many mages who just put forward a possibility or an idea, and there have not been so many great mages. Some conjectures put forward a long time ago can't be placed in that era itself, let alone in that era itself.
It's not solved yet.
What Minister Eric said only made Li Wen realize that the original spell of Icacia Thunder Shower might have other value, so he would not give up.
But to say it is useful, at least until Li Wen masters more knowledge and understands the relevant laws of authority, it will be difficult to put it to use.
Minister Eric just wanted to discuss this matter with Li Wen. When he saw that Li Wen, the creator, had no clue about the supporting rules behind this spell, he sighed with some disappointment.
But it doesn't matter.
After a spell is created, it no longer belongs to an individual, but to everyone who has access to it.
Anyone can discover new results from the existing knowledge system, and having a feasible research topic is an extremely happy thing for many mages.
When saying goodbye, Minister Eric asked Li Wen expressionlessly, "Are you really not considering going to the Imperial Capital?"
"..."
Seeing Li Wen's speechlessness, Minister Eric showed a scary-looking smile.
"That's all I ask."
Seemingly feeling a little dry, he added another modal particle after about half a second, "Haha~"
"..."
After being quiet again, Li Wen silently thought about what Minister Eric said. After confirming that he did not currently have the ability to research and complete it, he stopped spending too much time on it.
A mature mage must learn to control his thoughts and not fall into a state of mental internal friction over meaningless things.
Instead, he once again devoted his full attention to learning another fifth-ring spell - scrying.
Learn first, then master.
Use it while learning, and master it while using it.
…
The late-night player forum is equally lively.
The players who insist on the task of building the city stay safe and work hard to create happiness for everyone.
However, there was a slight problem with the exploration actions of those players who were trying to save the country.
The players' exploration failed miserably, but it was not a complete failure.
The players who entered the underdark area were almost completely wiped out. Players who didn't take action could still go a little further in, but once they did, even if they made even the slightest movement, they would be immediately attacked like a shark that smelled fishy odor.
The monster senses it and quickly surrounds it, then plays gg.
There are indeed many monsters, but they are simply too many.
In addition to the vampires, werewolves and some monsters that have been seen attacking the border before, there are many more types of creatures that live in this dark area. They have lived in darkness for a long time and instinctively hate the light, so they are unwilling to leave voluntarily.
The Underdark impacts the world of intelligent beings, but it does not mean that they cease to exist.
Therefore, the only player who successfully relied on his own "strength" to come out alive becomes extremely precious.
This female human mage player named Anna brought back valuable experience in the Underdark——
That is, no matter how you get lost, choose the obtuse angle...if you choose to go to the right, you will get the opposite!
After the magical human female mage was miraculously separated from her teammates, she miraculously fell into a magical underground cave, and then met a magical octopus-headed monster, and then miraculously wandered into a complicated underground cave with extremely low visibility.
As I wandered around, I miraculously encountered many underground creatures and various biological traps that seemed not to be trifled with, but miraculously I was able to avert danger every time.
The female mage who firmly followed the principle of turning right when there was no way out actually stumbled all the way out of the crypt, and even ran out of the Underdark.
During the process, he was chased by the terrifying octopus-headed monster many times and almost died suddenly. He even chased him all the way out of the crypt, but he was always one step ahead of disaster.
After watching the adventure of this legendary female mage, players on the forum said they couldn’t learn it.
With video evidence, no one would think this was made up by the female mage herself.
"This is the real Chosen One. What kind of country chicken am I to deserve to be called the Chosen One with such a person?"
"What? Luck? Isn't luck also a kind of strength? You are just jealous of our Miss Anna's invincible luck. Wuwuwu! Next time, I will be Miss Anna's dog! Wherever Miss Anna goes, I will go."
There are also players who analyze cautiously.
"Is it because of the magic heart mineral she carries?"
They firmly believe that this kind of luck cannot exist in the world, and everything has a deep-seated reason for its inevitable occurrence!
The octopus-headed monster was originally distracted by the Demonic Heart Mine and allowed the female mage to escape. It even tracked it all the way later, maybe it was also because of the Demonic Heart Mine.
After all, it is a limited version.
After all, it was a reward given as a prerequisite for opening this different world. It was even hammered down by everyone, so it should have some special effect.
Master Poppy didn't say it clearly and asked them to figure it out on their own, but now, it might be the true purpose of the Demonic Heart Mine.
"Did any of the other people who went in have magic heart minerals on them?"
"No."
"Of course not! You go out and take risks and take all your wealth with you? Of course it's all stored in the warehouse in the city!"
"See! That's why! Explore again!"
"Let's try it now."
"There's no need to try, he's back from the dead. I went in with the magic heart mine."
There are so many players, and there are always some who are particularly divergent in their thinking.
Since it is a reward given by the opening mission, it may be used in subsequent missions, so there are many players who wear a piece of Demonic Heart Mine like an amulet when they are active on the Lunar Moon Continent to ensure safety.
However, the evaluation is useless.
It even exploded after death...
"That's not what you're saying. I also carry the Demonic Heart Ore. I think it's somewhat useful. When I'm acting with my teammates, the monsters seem to be more willing to hit them instead of hitting me..."
"Damn it, DJ! I'm just telling you that when we formed a group, why did you die last? You secretly wore the magic heart mine and didn't tell the brothers to harm the brothers, right?"
"What a shame! I didn't know that at the time. I only remembered it now when I saw them discussing it."
"By the way, do you want to report to Bobby?"
Someone suddenly made an opinion.
The tasks and interactions in "Gaia Continent" are sometimes quite strange. When there are no tasks, there may be some small rewards. In most cases, they are given by players in the active interaction after finding some NPCs, which is not too big.
items of value or some information.
Among other things, a similar incident that happened to Poppy was the fact that a player took Poppy to find a green-haired boy NPC and received a small piece of magic heart ore as a reward.
So even though there are no related tasks, some players are still very imaginative.
Someone was immediately inspired and said, "Withdraw quickly, don't let others see it!"
"I understand! Let's try it tomorrow."
…
So the next day, when Li Wen came to the city construction site again to check the players' city construction progress, he was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic players.
What do you want to do?
Li Wen looked at the group of players surrounding him with a cold face. What's wrong with him?
"My lord! My lord! Lord Poppy! I entered the Underdark Territory yesterday, and I have some big news about the interior of the Underdark Territory!"
"oh?"
Li Wen raised his eyebrows, "Look at the panel?"
[You have entered the underdark area, all attributes in this terrain are -1, and the field of vision is halved.]
[You are under attack...]
[You received 7 points of blow damage.]
[You suffered 9 points of necrotic damage.]
[You suffered 3 points of piercing damage.]
…
【You are dead...】
That's it?
"climb!"
"My lord! My lord! I have it too, I have it too!"
There was a lot of commotion on the side, and Li Wen also patiently watched one by one. He knew that there were many players in Lu Ziye, and most of them were taking chances, so he didn't expect to see useful news from everyone.
But for these players who have really entered the Underdark, Li Wen also has enough patience.
Maybe one or two players can give you some surprises?
But unfortunately...
No!
No!
None!
There is no useful information! They are just records of death battles.
Being beaten up by the monsters in the underdark in a fancy way, it was obvious that no one cared about his death.
Hmm... Even someone who has never been to the Underdark dares to fish in troubled waters?
Li Wen looked at the player in front of him with an unkind look in his eyes.
【Bobby's favorability -100.】
[Your personal mission points in the legendary event—Light and Darkness! -100 points.]
[Not enough points, 0 has been cleared.]
"Blank!"
The player immediately cursed.
【Bobby's favorability -200.】
"..."
I won’t speak anymore. Isn’t it okay if I don’t speak anymore?
The player who ran to the outside of the crowd forced a smile on his face and encouraged the other players around him with a smile, "Bobby is stupid and has a lot of money. Go quickly! No matter whether you have been to the Underdark Zone or not, you can get the reward! Hurry up! Pass it!"
There is no such store in this village!”
The other players looked at him mercilessly, with one meaning in their eyes - "Who do you think is a fool?"
After Li Wen punished him briefly, some of the players who tried to fish in troubled waters dispersed, including some players who discovered that Li Wen had not given rewards to anyone and felt that they had not made any big discoveries. They also left secretly.
The number of players surrounding him was instantly reduced by half.
Their time was very tight and they had to hurry up to grab points. They didn't notice that when they surrounded Bobby, the others were working hard, trying to work quietly and finally surprise everyone, but they couldn't let these efforts succeed!
So the air around Li Wen seemed to be a little fresher for a while.
Li Wen looked at the female player who was squeezed in front of him.
The female player gave Li Wen a shy smile and took the initiative to invite her to show her the panel.
[You spent a third-level spell slot to cast fireball on the target.]
[The spell effect was resisted and failed to cause damage.]
【???(voice): I feel numb.】
…
[You passed through a poisonous swamp and are making agility and constitution saving throw judgments...]
[If the saving throw fails, you will fall into the swamp and suffer poisonous gas erosion.]
[You are protected by a certain spell effect and successfully pass the saving throw.]
…
[You triggered the Death Cloud Trap...]
[You are protected by a certain spell effect and successfully pass the saving throw.]
…
[You triggered the rockfall trap...]
[You are protected by a certain spell effect and successfully pass the saving throw.]
…
[You passed through the territory of a certain creature. The sticky spider silk under your feet made it difficult for you to move forward. You are making a strength saving throw...]
[You are protected by a certain spell effect and successfully pass the saving throw.]
…
Densely packed.
Li Wen couldn't help but clicked his tongue, which kind of god was this? He was cared for by the gods all the way, right?
The path he walked could have caused other players to die dozens of times, but Li Wen was stunned and didn't see the death information he wanted to see.
"Damn the European Emperor!"
Li Wen sighed angrily and looked at the player in front of him.
She is a girly gamer with big eyes that are full of excitement at the moment.
He also held an exquisite crystal staff in his hand and wore a clean sky-blue robe with some kind of magic effect.
It can be seen from the panel that this girl player is a level 9 mage and does not have a priest level.
Moreover, none of the battle records showed that it was a spell cast by herself. The only three-ring fireball spell was thrown at something unknown and has not yet taken effect.
I don’t know what strange force protected me all the way.
"Did you go to the Underdark yesterday?"
This is the first time that Poppy has said a second sentence to a player.
The group of onlookers seemed to be more excited than the girl herself.
Anna also nodded excitedly.
"Um."
"What did you see?"
"I saw many, many spiders with many eyes, big trees with branches that moved like snakes, mud that could wrap people up and suffocate them to death, oh! There was also a strange octopus head!"
Ms. Master didn’t know whether she was too excited or her language expression skills were not good enough, so what she said was a bit scattered.
But Li Wen still caught the key point - the octopus head.
"What octopus head?"
"It's a humanoid monster, wearing a black robe. Its head is as slippery as an octopus's head, its eyes are gray and white, and there are four tentacles on its chin. It was it that I hit with my fireball! But it had no effect on it, it just chased me all the way.
Run! I kept running, and it kept chasing me! I didn’t have emergency syrup... but it scared me to death.”
Miss Mage was deeply impressed by the monster that chased her all the way until she left the Underdark.
As soon as Li Wen asked, they poured out one after another like the wheels of a cart.
The girl's words reminded Li Wen of a familiar appearance.
Such a coincidence?
Could this thing be an illithid?
Why are there illithids here?
Of course, this is not the point. The point is why this illithid... did not kill or capture this mage lady.
And the mage lady who ran into so many dangerous places along the way was actually safe?
There is even some kind of special magic effect that is always protecting her?
A strange thought came to Li Wen's mind.
"By the way, I'm wearing a piece of magic heart mineral on my body. The octopus head was staring at this from the beginning before I found a chance to run away successfully. Does it want this after it's been chasing me?"
Annayou remembered seeing the discussion on the forum and took the initiative to tell Li Wen this immature idea.
"Demon Heart Mine?"
Li Wen was slightly startled.
No, it shouldn't be the case. Magic Heart Ore shouldn't have this effect.
Directly instigating an illithid to escort it all the way? It’s unrealistic.
But it’s hard to say, how about letting her try again?
Li Wen thought so and nodded with a serious expression.
"Do you still remember how you found the octopus-headed monster yesterday?"
"Forehead……"
"Um?"
"I got lost and ran around..."
"..."
Meow!
Li Wen shook his head helplessly, but still sent a task.
"You try again to see if you can find that monster. I need to get more information about it. By the way, don't just run after you encounter it. Remember to fight back when you run."
[Poppy is going to entrust you with a task—exploring the octopus head! Do you accept it? Please respond positively if you accept it.]
"Damn it! A mission has been issued!"
The players on the side exclaimed, but the protagonist remained motionless.
"But I'm afraid..."
Miss Mage did not accept the task immediately, but just stared at Li Wen eagerly.
Li Wen is selfless and selfless.
"You can find some companions to go with."
Afraid? What are you afraid of?
You players can't die, it's me you should be afraid of!
I don't have time to go in with you.
"I was with other people yesterday."
"Then what?"
"Lost, they are all dead."
He is really the European Emperor, right? Damn it!
"It doesn't matter! I believe you."
If you can get lost once, you can get lost twice. The world of Ouhuang is always purple.
Li Wen looked at her steadily, his cute and handsome serious face made the girl subconsciously avoid looking at him, even though she knew that the person in front of her was just an NPC.
He believes in me...
Anna felt that she had received endless encouragement, "But I'm still afraid."
Li Wen pursed his lips and said as a last resort.
"As a reward for the mission, I can borrow it for you in advance."
Then he waved and took out a... belt.
Yes, it was the belt that the dwarf made using the magic heart ore that Li Wen took out.
Anyway, to verify the effectiveness of the Demonic Heart Ore, you can try the effects of the Demonic Heart Ore itself or the creations of the Demonic Heart Ore.
This wave is called going with the flow.
Moreover, this belt has little effect on him. Li Wen, who has three rare magic items, a defensive ring, a silver language necklace, and an adamantine key, doesn't like this belt and has long been prepared to give it away.
"Fuck! They actually gave out rewards first!"
What Li Wen doesn't care about is a rare magic item in the eyes of players!
The eyes of the players watching were all red.
"Okay."
The mage lady, who only dared to take on the task after taking the belt, turned around and wanted to run away, but was stopped by Li Wen.
"Wait wait wait!"
"ah?"
Looking at this reckless mage lady, Li Wen felt a little headache.
"I'll give you another buff, don't resist."
"Oh, okay~"
Relying on the mage lady's ability to express herself, Li Wen felt uneasy, but he still thought it was safe.
5th-Level Spell—Science (Prophecy): You can see and hear a creature on the same plane of existence as you. The target creature must make a Wisdom saving throw; the saving throw's modifier depends on how well you know the target, as well.
It is related to the degree of physical connection between you and the target. If the target knows that you are casting the spell and it is willing to be observed by you, it can voluntarily give up the saving throw. If the other party succeeds in the saving throw, the target is not affected by the spell.
And you cannot attempt to detect the same target within 24 hours.
If the opponent fails the saving throw, you create an invisible sensor within 10 feet of the target. Through the sensor, you can see and hear the target's surroundings as if you were physically present. The sensor moves with the target and remains active for the duration of the spell.
Stay within 10 feet of your target. To a creature that can see through invisibility, your detection sensor appears as a fist-sized ball of light.
In addition to creatures, you can also choose a location you have seen before as the target of this spell. At this time, the sensor will appear at the target location and will not move. Casting time: 10 minutes. Cooldown: None. Duration:
24 hours, need to maintain concentration. Casting distance: self.
The five-ring spell I just learned last night comes in handy.
I just feel a little distressed about the casting materials...a crystal ball worth a thousand gold each, but luckily I got it from the city's military supply depot as an honorary city protector~
There is a certain limit of spell research materials every month. The limit is not specified. Anyway, if you don’t get it, you won’t get it.
Since it is a newly learned spell, and it is a complex five-ring spell, even a genius like Li Wen still has to follow the process of casting the spell honestly.
The casting process that lasted for 10 minutes made all the players watching hold their breath.
By the time the spell was cast, it seemed as if she could feel the infinite magical power condensing in her body, and the mage lady became more and more eager to move and became more confident.
With the protection of Master Bobby's magic, there are all kinds of monsters, beautiful women, mountains of swords, seas of fire, traps and tricks...
Don't pay attention to them all!
"I'm going!"
Looking at the girl's leaving figure, Li Wen pursed his lips, thinking that she might have misunderstood something.
This thing is not for you to commit suicide...
But the problem is not big. Confidence is the fourth magic item of Ou Huang.
Give it to me!
With Miss Mage's demonstration, Li Wen was suddenly surrounded again.
