Chapter 207: The East Is Not Bright, The West Is Bright
Chapter 207: When the east is not bright, the west is bright
When meeting Helen in the study, Helen said straight to the point: "The snake man is back."
"How to say?"
"His people...are all under control. The other party told you."
"..."
Li Wen pursed his lips, thinking it couldn't be such a coincidence, right?
"Illithid?"
Helen nodded, "Yes!"
Li Wen had mixed feelings in his heart and didn't know what to say.
But according to the information he just obtained, in addition to humans, illithids do also have this ability.
The remnants of the escaped snakemen may be able to compete with the humans in several cities with their magical weapons, but facing the illithids who also use psychic powers and are even more aggressive, it seems a bit unsatisfactory.
.
Not to mention if the illithid monsters use their demigod-level masterminds...
The bad luck and the bad luck belong to yes.
But there should be no worries about life for the time being.
According to the information I have obtained, the illithids will use high-potential intelligent beings to incubate the next generation of their own tribe, while only low-potential intelligent beings will have their brains eaten.
Snakemen also have psychic talents and should be valued by the illithids, and hatching takes time. In a short period of time, they are still snakemen, but they are controlled by the illithids.
Helen stared at Li Wen's dazed eyes and softly explained the current situation.
"According to that snake-man, the illithids were extremely powerful during their snake-man empire, and now they have made a comeback, even occupying the last remains of their snake-men. In the future, we may have to face a difficult enemy.
"
An opponent who possesses both the snake-man magic weapon and the powerful psychic power... Last time it was so difficult for someone with Qin's strength to face only three illithids. Now the potential opponent has become the one who occupies the last part of the snake-man empire.
An entire race of illithids in the ruins.
The powerful combat effectiveness of the divine weapons makes up for the shortcomings of the illithids in close combat.
The two added together are undoubtedly a fatal threat to mankind.
Stormy.
Just two days after the Blood Frenzy, the illithids that had shown their horns before began to show their threat again.
"I have already contacted Qin. Last time she faced illithids alone, and according to her, the paladin profession was created to deal with illithids. Maybe she has some experience."
With that said, Helen looked at Li Wen again. In addition to fatigue, there was also some faint expectation in her beautiful eyes.
"You created the Paladin profession. I thought... maybe you have some ideas?"
"Forehead……"
Li Wen hesitated slightly, wondering if saying it directly would seem too coincidental.
The news that was not used in the Lunar Moon Continent was first used in the Gaia Continent. If the east is not bright and the west is bright, it is.
"Um?"
Keenly noticing something was wrong with Li Wen's attitude, Helen narrowed her narrow phoenix eyes.
"You don't mean to say that you just made some new discoveries? And you happen to have some special effects on illithids, right?"
Li Wen raised his face with a smile, "It's Jiang Zipin."
Helen's majestic chest could be seen as she took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it.
"Speak out and listen."
Li Wen stretched out his right hand to his side. As his right hand stretched out, a small portal opened in front of his finger. Li Wen reached in and took out a small piece of magic heart ore.
"This thing."
This understatement of the ability to open a different-dimensional space gate does not even use spell slots...
Helen's eyes narrowed slightly, and it was hard to imagine that this kind of application of space rules was actually made by a third-level mage.
Looking away from the small gray portal, Helen looked at Li Wen's retracted palm——
There, an irregular auburn crystal the size of a fist appeared quietly.
"This is……"
"Didn't you clean up the Lunar Moon before? This is the garbage that was swept away."
"Huh? So?"
"These garbage can be used as some kind of magic material to make magic items, and the magic items made with this kind of garbage have good protective capabilities against those illithid monsters. I have verified it."
Helen's eyes narrowed slightly, "How many?"
"Half the moon's crust, how many do you think it is?"
"..."
Helen suddenly stood up with a "swish", and the red robe she was wearing unfolded smoothly. She stepped forward and hugged Li Wen's head, and pressed a moist red lip to Li Wen's forehead.
"mua~"
The next moment, the sluggish Li Wen felt himself falling into a soft suffocation. There was even a "thumping thumping" heartbeat sound transmitted to his face. He didn't know whether it came from Helen or from Helen.
Own.
Helen had no idea what Li Wen was feeling at this moment. She just held his head and looked up at the ceiling, her eyes a little lost, "Great... great..."
No one knows how much pressure she has to bear as the lord of a city...especially a city lord who is dedicated and loves her people.
Although every time she encounters some major events, those events should be borne by the entire human race, but the place where it happened was too close to Jianfeng City, and this threat to the people under her rule made her sleepless and uneasy.
But fortunately...every time...every time, someone came up with a solution for her before the situation became irreversible.
"I bought them all as much as you have."
Li Wen, who was pushed away by Helen again, was blushing and panting heavily.
Although the feeling of breathing fresh air again is refreshing, the smell of some kind of fragrance filling your nose is also unforgettable.
I feel like I can do it again...
"I gave it all to you."
Li Wen said casually subconsciously.
Helen was startled.
"this……"
After reacting, he quickly explained: "The fourth and fifth-level spells you can learn and the qualifications to obtain spell experiment materials are what you deserve for your previous actions. You don't need to repay your gratitude for this. Instead, I need to thank you."
Public is public, private is private.
Helen didn't want to take advantage of Li Wen.
Li Wen waved his hand, and after a moment of calmness, reason once again took over the high ground.
"I'm not here to repay a favor... Jianfeng City is my home. If I want to contribute to my family, I don't think there is any connection with the reward. And I have quite a lot of ore. You need to find someone first."
I'm building them all, and you don't have anywhere to put them. In fact, I came here today with the intention of discussing with you how to find a craftsman to use those ores to build equipment, but I didn't expect that I happened to run into the snake man thing you mentioned.
"
"this……"
Li Wen said in a somewhat forceful tone: "You should find someone first. I don't know if our craftsmen have this technology yet. I went to find the first piece of equipment that the dwarf envoys tried to build."
Helen is not an indecisive person. Just remember the goodness of certain people and the sacrifices of certain people.
"I'll go right away."
Li Wen immediately opened another larger teleportation door. The teleportation gate was facing the ground. Li Wen reached in and took out it twice, and several pieces of magic heart ore of different sizes fell out from it.
It hit the ground with a clang, and Li Wen put away the portal. "You have to let someone try it first. Make sure it can be mass-produced and then notify me. I'm reading in the library. If you have anything, please contact me anytime."
Seeing Li Wen's back as he pushed open the study door, and half of his face looking back in the sunlight, Helen pursed her lips slightly.
