Chapter 34: Kevin, the Black-robed Mage
The leader's care made the comrades feel the warmth of spring.
Bai Xiaowen made a flattered appearance, but his heart was full of contempt:
"Let the chief of Ouchi, Glima, arrange it for me, this is considered a task reward? Reward a rebel dog tag, a bed in the barracks of Pointed Helmet City, and a number of pots and pans? Impossible, such a good opportunity Brother will never miss it!"
Bai Xiaowen's face became heavy, and his mouth was impassioned:
"No need to arrange it, Lord Usok, I have left the warmth of Waltron and come here for the liberation of the North one day sooner! What I want is to have more power and devote myself to the liberation of the Vikings. ”
The people in the hall had different expressions. Young men like Loga, as well as the row of muscular Viking hunks on the right, were in awe, as if they had seen a moral role model. The civil officials in the row on the left, many of them have strange expressions.
Usok coughed: "Young warrior, you still have a long way to go, don't rush to pursue power, you need to wait for the right opportunity." ”
"Actually, Lord Ursock...... I've got an opportunity right now, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Bai Xiaowen was in the lord's hall, and in front of everyone's eyes, he suddenly took out the soul stone!
"This soul stone was taken by me at the risk of my life, and it will give me great strength to help our cause!" Bai Xiaowen said loudly, "However, it is sealed. My lord, I beg you to help me unlock the seal of the soul stone!"
Bai Xiaowen's choice to take out the soul stone at this moment was after repeated considerations.
First of all, it is impossible for Ursok and his men to go to the Abbey of Northshire or the Imperial Knights to denounce them, and the two are opposing camps.
Secondly, Bai Xiaowen is a rookie warrior who has just made great achievements, and in order to win people's hearts, it is impossible for Usok to make a move to eat black and black no matter what. It is impossible for a tyrant like Usoke not to understand the truth of buying horse bones, if he swallows Bai Xiaowen's soul stone with his backhand, who else will dare to join the Northern Rebels in the future?
The mages in the row on the left looked at the soul stone with a look of astonishment, followed by a burst of extortion.
Usok glanced at the Soul Stone.
"Kevin!" Usok looked at the black-robed mage on the left, "Look at this stone." ”
The black-robed mage Kevin nodded and stretched out his hand to Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head, the soul stone was in his palm, and he didn't mean to hand it to Kevin at all: "Master Kevin, I'll show it to you." ”
Although he was not afraid of being robbed, Bai Xiaowen was worried that the black-robed mage Kevin would see the fortune and play some magic tricks to drop the bag, and then said that this was an ordinary stone, and who could Bai Xiaowen find to cry.
Kevin's pale face showed a slight displeasure, but he still faithfully obeyed Ursock's order, closed his eyes slightly, and released his spiritual power to perceive the soul stone.
"My lord, he's right, it's a soul stone, and it's now sealed by a fairly strong force," Kevin said as he opened his eyes, "I can feel a lot of the will of the dead from this soul stone. If you can make full use of the power of this soul stone, you will definitely be able to create a powerful summoning necromancer. ”
The people in the hall frowned slightly, it was obvious that for normal people, the necromancer who manipulated the dead and skeleton was synonymous with coldness and gloom, and it was also an object of respect.
However, the Vikings revered power and did not have much prejudice against necromancers. If it is an Imperial person who believes in the Lord of Light, I am afraid that the reaction will be more violent, and I can't say that I want to shout and kill.
Usok asked, "Young man, are you really willing to give up the glory of a warrior and choose the disgusting necromancer as your profession?"
Bai Xiaowen said without hesitation: "My talent is more suitable for being a mage, not a warrior. No matter what the power is, as long as it is helpful for the freedom of the Vikings and the independence of the North, I will pursue it. No matter how big the sacrifice is, it will not hesitate!"
Bai Xiaowen said impassionedly, and a group of Viking macho men nodded frequently.
Kevin's eyes seemed to scan Bai Xiaowen, and then said, "Lord Lord, this young man's physique is relatively weak, but he has a strong spirit. He's a better ranged caster. ”
Usok nodded: "It seems that I have no reason to stop it. Kevin, you are the most powerful mage in my territory, can you help him unlock the seal of the soul stone?"
Bai Xiaowen's eyes immediately looked at the black-robed mage Kevin.
I have to say that the S-class transfer mission has been done here, which is already a very critical step. Bai Xiaowen's mood was still very nervous.
He was worried that this black-robed mage would push the past, so that other mages would not take over. The line of resistance is equivalent to being broken.
Fortunately, the black-robed mage Kevin didn't shirk it, but said happily: "No problem." ”
Call. Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Master Kevin." He gave the soul stone to Kevin with peace of mind, and now he is not afraid of Kevin dropping the bag.
"But ......" Kevin's words lifted Bai Xiaowen's mind again.
Bai Xiaowen couldn't wait to kill this sick man, and he was panting when he spoke! He was afraid of words like "but, but, but" in everything, and there was no good news.
"But what?" asked for help, Bai Xiaowen still asked very cooperatively.
Kevin glanced at the hall, bowed to Usok, and then said to Bai Xiaowen, "You come with me." ”
The two of them walked down the hallway to a study. There are bookshelves against the wall, and there is a laboratory table with many utensils.
"Sit down, this is my lab. ”
Kevin played with the soul stone in his hand and said slowly, "You stole this soul stone from Falgar." ”
"How do you know?"
"Hehe, each spellcaster has a unique aura, and the seal of this stone has spiritual energy belonging to Falgar, and I have met Falgar once before - it just so happened that I heard that Falgar stole the soul stone of the seal from the Northshire Monastery, was chased by the royal knights, and even fled to the other plane. Unexpectedly, this soul stone arrived in your hands. Kevin sighed with emotion.
"Now it has nothing to do with Falgar. It's mine. Bai Xiaowen emphasized.
"Relax, relax," Kevin waved his hand, "I don't have any friendship with Falgar, and I'm not going to tell those bitches at Northshire Abbey. It's just that I got the news yesterday that Fargar has been arrested, so I'll just make a few small talks - okay, now let's get back to business. ”
Kevin took a scroll from the bookshelf and unfolded it gently, a stream of energy shining on the scroll. He placed the soul stone in the center of the scroll, and said as he unsealed it, "It's not difficult to unseal it, but the energy of your soul stone seems to have been depleted. If you want to gain power, it's not enough to just break the seal. ”
Bai Xiaowen was overjoyed in his heart, but asked quietly on his face, "Can Master Kevin help me recharge my energy?"
Kevin shook his head: "The hunger of the soul stone is not something that ordinary energy can satisfy, it must devour the soul." The stronger the soul, the more it meets the requirements. I can't help you with that. I can point you to a place, though. ”
Bai Xiaowen was very cooperative: "What place?"
Kevin operated slowly, and after waiting for all the energy light of the scroll to dissipate and turn into a piece of waste paper, he picked up the soul stone and handed it to Bai Xiaowen, and then said: "That place, one hundred and fifty miles north of Pointed Helmet City, is a forgotten cemetery, where powerful ancient Viking warriors are buried. The soul there must meet the needs of the soul stone. ”
Tips:
"You heard the news of the Frozen Tomb from Kevin, the chief mage of Helmet City. ”
"The task progress has been updated. ”
"S-Class Conversion Mission: Black Soul Stone, Current Progress: Unlock 1/1, Charge 0/100. ”
Bai Xiaowen thoughtfully took the soul stone and asked, "Master Kevin, I will go to that ancient tomb to collect soul energy." Is there anything you would like me to help with?"
Kevin laughed, "No, I don't have much interest in necromancy. Last but not least, head to the tomb as soon as possible. ”
