This astral space named Sea and Flame is darker than the outside when it gets dark, because there is nothing in the sky here, only a black velvet-like dome. There is indeed some red light in the active volcano crater in the distance.
But it was too far away from here, and there were trees in the middle, so it was still pitch dark at Lawrence and his camp.
Because extraordinary monsters are often not very afraid of fire, and choosing to light a fire in the campsite at this time may also attract some people with bad intentions, making it easier for them to become an obvious target by the fire, so Lawrence and the others followed a certain method
A person with dark vision and a person who does not have this ability are combined into a group and divided into three shifts to watch the night, without using any light source during the entire process.
According to the grouping, Lawrence was assigned to the first group for the first half of the night, his teammate was the warrior Leisuo, while the dwarf mechanic and his magic robot were on the midnight shift, and finally in the second half of the night it was the rat man Miss La
Card and Paladin John watch the night
"I hate this feeling." Leisuo muttered in a low voice. As a warrior who is not born with dark vision like the rat people and dwarfs, and does not have the magic like Lawrence to master [dark vision], he always faces the dark and quiet environment outside.
There was a feeling of tingling in his heart. Fortunately, the cold touch of the ax and buckler in his hand and the single-shot large-caliber pistol on his waist could give him some comfort.
"Indeed, the sky in this small plane is really too dark at night." Although [Dark Vision] provided Lawrence with a clearer vision, he could also feel that the darkness of this world was not just pure darkness.
, there are probably some factors related to magic.
Speaking of strange magic, Lawrence suddenly remembered the first prey his team killed during the day: a puppet spider controlling a group of zombies. If this undead creature were not due to some magic experiments, it would mean that there must be something nearby.
It takes a long-term exposure to an environment with strong death energy to become what it is now.
But in the information Lawrence had seen before, the extraordinary creatures in the astral plane of sea and fire should be more affected by water and fire, such as the shooting water turtles or those kobolds related to fire. This
The puppet spider obviously does not belong to the above two types, and is very special.
More importantly, according to today's exploration and the information seen before coming in: the power of water and fire in this astral space are separated. The power of water is mainly concentrated in the sea around the island, while the power concentrated on the island is
The power of fire. Monsters encountered in different places at the same time will have certain patterns in their distribution.
According to magic theory, the power of fire and the power of the undead are mutually exclusive in most cases. If there are exceptions in the main plane outside due to complex environments, this small plane with incomplete rules will
They tend to appear very uniform, and monsters that are obviously inconsistent with the local environment will not appear for no reason.
"It seems that I should suggest searching the surroundings tomorrow. Maybe we can find some kind of treasure related to the undead. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain why such an undead creature appears in a space full of flames." Lawrence stared at him warily.
The people around him were thinking at the same time. Apart from this explanation, it was difficult for him to understand why this situation occurred.
When the vigil time came, Lawrence woke up Cog who was snoring in his shack according to the previously agreed plan and returned to his shack. Leisuo, who lived in the same shack with him, soon lay down to sleep.
After falling asleep, Lawrence sat cross-legged on his quilt and began to meditate.
After entering the meditative state, he found that the white shadow in his mind was flashing continuously as he meditated, just like the image in an old movie, just like the steady glow of the white shadow during meditation in the past.
completely different.
Lawrence's spirit was also attracted by this flickering shadow, and at the same time, the energy in his body unconsciously rotated with the frequency of Bai Ze's flickering. This flickering was inexplicably attractive, so that he
I didn't realize that the time I spent in this meditation had far exceeded the usual time.
Just when he was about to reach the limit, Bai Ze's phantom changed. After a flash, Lawrence found that Bai Ze's phantom was larger than before, and at the same time, the small horn hidden in the hair on the top of his head was
A little bit of it was also exposed, and little scales appeared on the limbs.
The biggest change is that there is now a milky white scroll shadow on top of Bai Ze's head. This shadow floats at most one finger's height from Bai Ze's actual shadow.
After discovering the major changes in the phantom, Lawrence immediately used his will to contact the Bai Ze phantom floating above his mind, and soon he figured out what this scroll was.
"This is the legendary "Baize Picture" that Bai Ze dedicated to the Yellow Emperor. It records the names, descriptions and exorcism spells of all ghosts in the world. It can ward off evil spirits and exorcise them."
Different from what Lawrence imagined, this phantom Bai Zetu did not record any information on it. Now it is just a simple blank scroll.
Of course, the scroll ghost floating above Baize's ghost was not a decoration. After a brief communication, he quickly figured out how to use this Baize picture that was different from the records.
Its appearance can be regarded as the result of further exploration of the Warlock bloodline. As long as Lawrence sees any monsters in the future, the images of these monsters will be left on the phantom of this Baizetu. As the understanding of these monsters continues to deepen
, then it will be easier for him to find their weaknesses when facing these monsters, and it will be easier for him to carry out fatal blows.
In addition, when the understanding of these monsters reaches a certain level, Lawrence can summon its phantom to fight for him. The only limit to the strength of the phantom, apart from Lawrence's own level, is his ability to control these monsters.
of cognitive status.
"This is really a big gain." Lawrence thought. After seeing this most important change, he realized belatedly that he had been successfully promoted to a formal warlock. According to the ancient division method,
, he has now broken away from the black iron level extraordinary person sequence and has become a newly promoted bronze level extraordinary person.
The first feeling after the upgrade was that the magic reserve in his body has almost doubled, and his five senses have become much stronger than before. He can now hear the voices of John and Cog talking outside. They are changing shifts. This also shows that when the meditation was upgraded just now,
It took Lawrence more than two hours.
Finding that it was still a while before dawn, Lawrence immediately started to organize his upgrade. Perhaps because he had been promoted to a large level, he found that he had a tool that he could use to change his spell list and select new spells at the same time.
Chance.
When searching the list of optional spells, Lawrence discovered that whether it was because he was a time traveler or because of the power of Bai Ze's bloodline, some of the druids of this world actually appeared among the optional spells in his listed bloodline.
The exclusive spell made him really overjoyed.
After some selection, Lawrence added water-making and purifying food to his zero-level spell list, camouflage and disguise to his first-level spell list, and at the same time converted the secondary deflection stance to endure the environment.
When it came time to choose the second-level spell, Lawrence was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a very good spell among the spells available to him. After thinking for a while, he chose the Mage Armor and Spider Web spells, which are almost universal for spellcasters.
After careful consideration of the three latest third-level spells, Lawrence chose Dispel Magic, Disaster and Missile Storm.
Unfortunately, Bai Ze's blood does seem to lack some powerful attack spells of the energy evocation system, which also prevents him from getting the fireball spell that is almost a symbol of the caster. However, this does not mean that Bai Ze's blood is weak, but that
On the other hand, it shows the power of Bai Ze's bloodline, because both the dispel magic and the disaster spell are much more precious than the fireball spell. Even Lawrence has never heard of where one can learn the disaster spell.
In addition, Lawrence, who had risen a large level, successfully obtained his third talent, Danger Sense, which allowed him to vaguely predict some dangers related to himself.
In short, this level promotion can be regarded as a comprehensive improvement for Lawrence, and it also gives him sufficient guarantee for his next actions in the astral plane.
