The answer of the Enodian wizard apprentice reminded Xiao Yu of the novels and animations he read in his childhood, as well as the childhood of the villains in them.
After thinking again and again, Xiao Yu agreed to Ainodia's request and decided to give him a chance!
But before that, tapping is something you must do!
Although Xiao Yu is only a high school student, he is not a virgin boy.
Xiao Yu took off the camera on his shoulder, operated it, and then placed the screen in front of Ainodia's eyes.
As a familiar voice came from the camera, I looked at the familiar figure on the screen...
Suddenly, Aenodia's face stiffened.
"Your Highness, is this a high-level witchcraft and magic artifact photo recorder?" Aenodia looked at herself showing her loyalty inside, and was shocked: "A rare object without mana fluctuations... Even a formal wizard can't detect it.
He must have been secretly photographed!"
Soon, Enodia saw a video clip of herself shouting that she wanted to become a big shot.
For a moment, Ainodia, who was still not as shameless as Xiao Yu, turned her head and looked away in embarrassment.
Xiao Yu took back the camera and put it on his shoulder.
Then he looked at Aenodia: "After watching your video, you should know that there is no way back."
"Yes, Your Highness." Aenodia bowed slightly and nodded: "I have always been worried that I would not be able to gain His Highness's trust. Now that I have the photo in His Highness's hands, I am relieved and know that His Highness is really willing to give me a chance."
Ainodia answered sincerely. Now that he has this handle in Xiao Yu's hands, it can be said that he will never be able to wash away the mark of Xiao Yu, a giant.
"You're not disgusted?"
Xiao Yu originally wanted to ask this question but felt it was inappropriate. There was no need to ask many things directly. The other party's attitude had already given the answer.
So, Xiao Yu changed his words and said:
"So, Aenodia, my temporary mentor, I wish you can really become a big shot in this world in the future!"
"Your Highness, I have always firmly believed in this."
After deciding to trust Aenodia, Xiao Yu took out all the trophies he had snatched from the Kuiko family from his portable space.
With the help of Aenodia, these things were finally systematically classified, and Xiao Yu learned more relevant knowledge.
It turns out that the black smoke bottle is a magical item of witchcraft, and it requires at least a wizard apprentice who has activated the source of mana to use it.
However, unlike the initial rumor that magical artifacts cost the life of a wizard apprentice, Xiao Yu learned through Aenodia's explanation that such rumors came from a reason!
poverty!
Witchcraft artifacts are tools made by wizards to imitate the wonders of the world for wizards to use. How can they really cost such a precious lifespan?
To activate magical items, magic stones can generally be used to replace the missing mana.
Only those noble families who are extremely poor in the eyes of wizards and have only a few magic stones in their entire wealth will use the lives of wizard apprentices to reduce the consumption of magic stones.
"In other words, as long as I get started and have magic stones, can I use the witchcraft and magic items I get?" Xiao Yu asked after knowing this.
"Yes." Aenodia nodded: "In fact, as long as you get started, if you have magic stones, in addition to rare items, you can also use some simplified witchcraft."
"Oh?" Xiao Yu recalled the griffons that Aenodia controlled at the beginning, and said with a thought: "By the way, can I also use the witchcraft that you used to control those griffins at the beginning?"
"Your Highness, that uses a simplified version of the witchcraft magic object - the confusion rune. It relies on the confusion rune refined using the magic circle to control their behavior. It has little effect on highly intelligent creatures. Your Excellency asks this question
Is there a monster in your heart that you want to control?"
"Monsters generally have high spell resistance. The confusion runes refined by my wizard apprentice are very likely to fail!"
"Huh? It's a rune? It's also a prop!" Xiao Yu whispered: "I can use it after you refine it, right?"
"Yes, you can use it as long as you successfully get started." Aenodia nodded in affirmation.
"Okay, my instructor, let's continue the class. In addition to getting started, let's first learn the relevant knowledge of this confusion rune."
"As you wish, Your Highness."
…………
While Xiao Yu was eagerly absorbing the knowledge of Lilliputian wizards, the scouts sent by General Babu also found clues and came to a remote mountain village.
"The traces left near the metal golem have been found in several other places. There is no trace of the magic stone." The scout captain held the horse rope tightly and whispered:
"This is the only clue that hasn't been broken. The magic stone is probably here."
"Captain, why don't we go immediately and search for the magic stone?" Next to the scout captain, a young cavalryman eager to make meritorious service asked excitedly.
"Whoever dares to steal the magic stone from under our noses is easy to deal with?" The scout captain chuckled and said, "It's our job to find out the traces. There is no need to compete with those personal guards for credit."
"And this credit may not be easy to snatch."
The scout captain suddenly shut up as he spoke, but a group of general guards who had been notified outside the mountain village came over.
Although these guard cavalry are not extraordinary knights, they are all strong and strong men. They ride the best horses in the wilderness and carry the sharpest spears and daggers in the iron castle.
And the armor on their bodies is exactly the same as that on the barbarian warriors. It is a delicious full-body armor transformed from magical metal given by the great protector of the kingdom!
Phew!
When approaching the mountain village, the war horses all sneezed, and immediately sped up at the owner's request, running into the seemingly undefended small mountain village.
"Weird! What a strong smell of blood!"
"Someone died here just now, many, many people died here!"
The cavalry guards were so experienced. As soon as they stepped into the mountain village, they all gasped and felt the biting coldness in the air!
"Be careful! Don't separate. Go check the well in the square first!" The guard cavalry gathered together and thrust out their spears in all directions.
"Oh, they are all elites!" A hoarse voice suddenly came from the mountain village.
Then, as a cloud of black gas emerged from the well, dozens of zombies with most of their bodies rotting crawled out of the wooden house.
At the same time, in the woods outside the mountain village, a rotten grizzly bear more than three meters high and several zombie wolves also rushed out.
"Damn it!"
"It's the Necromancer!"
The guard cavalry all changed their colors.
The scouts observing from a distance also turned their horses' heads and started running immediately!
The magic stone was finally obtained by the hidden necromancer!
Oh my gosh, this is amazing news!
Big event!
In the past hundreds of years in the Kingdom of Gangdu, when has a necromancer appeared, it didn’t end with a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood?
As the scouts ran, their fathers' terrifying memories of the necromancers kept lingering in their minds.
Let them speed up their horses crazily and even break their riding whips!
They couldn't wait to fly back to the camp as soon as possible and inform the Kingdom Protector of this shocking event.
Chapter completed!
