Chapter 259: Whispering Magic Book (2-in-1)

"This necromantic plague plan can be used as a kind of evidence when submitting the mission, and I estimate that I should be able to exchange it for some merit points and other things," Bai Xiaowen said, "It can make the upper echelons clearly understand the serious situation of the necromantic plague and formulate corresponding countermeasures." ”

After putting away the plan, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi were alone again and drew the golden treasure chest of the lich Ebyzer.

Li Shuyi drew a quaint scroll.

[Blighted Mist Scroll: S-rank item, creates a fog after use, with a radius of the user's spirit *10 (m). All lifeforms within the range of the Blighted Mist will stack with "Blight" stacks over time. Each stack of the withering effect reduces all of its stats by 10%, up to a maximum of 5 stacks. 】

Behind the scroll description, there is also a line of small print. To use this scroll, one must have the Advanced Level 7 Meditation perk.

"S-class props, it's really tough. Unfortunately, I need to advance to level 7 meditation, and I don't meet the requirements for it right now. Bai Xiaowen said.

Bai Xiaowen's current advanced meditation is level 4, and in a short period of time, he can break through to level 5. When the time comes, under the title of "the strongest scholar", you will be able to reach level 6, but it is still 1 level short.

It takes a lot of time to develop your combat skills, so you can't rush it. However, Bai Xiaowen is very talented in meditation, he himself is a spiritual specialty awakener, and he has a super brain, and the breadth, breadth and duration of each meditation far exceed that of ordinary mages, and he will improve quickly.

This [Blighted Mist] scroll is best suited for large-scale battles, and once used well, it is enough to rewrite the outcome of a war.

Then, Bai Xiaowen drew the last loot card from the Lich Ebyzel's treasure chest.

The golden light flashed, and a book appeared on the front of the card.

"Is it a skill book?" Li Shuyi said first, and after seeing it clearly, she shook her head and smiled, "Okay, it turned out to be equipment, I read it wrong." ”

This is a book-shaped piece of equipment called the Whispering Magic Book.

【Whispering Tome (Pick Up and Bind)】

[Quality: Heroic (Gold)]

[Equipment Position: Off-Hand]

[Equipment Requirements: None]

[Attribute: Spirit +3]

[Additional Skill: Whispering: Specify a target (friend or foe), roll the dice, and cast a random spell on the target.] The higher the number of points you shake, the higher the star of the spell. Cooldown time 24 hours. 】

[Durability: 42/45]

[Description: It's all about technology!]

"This equipment is a little special, it seems to be very good, with attributes and skills, which is the characteristic of super gold equipment," Li Shuyi said, "It's just that the additional skills are a bit incomprehensible." ”

Bai Xiaowen read the text of the additional skill twice, and his face was a little weird.

"This babbling skill...... Normally, don't use it. ”

Bai Xiaowen shook his head, "There are too many uncertainties. Target the enemy, what if a random BUFF spell is cast...... The mechanic of targeting first and then random spells is too pitiful. ”

Li Shuyi understood.

The skills attached to this [Whispering Magic Book], random spells, are not controlled by the wearer of the equipment. For example, Bai Xiaowen designated an ally as a target, and wanted to shake a BUFF-type spell, what if he shook out the "Flame Explosion Technique"? The fireball with the size of the basin is no joke. And if you target an enemy, if you shake a buff like "King's Blessing" or "Protective Seal", it will be quite devastating.

Sure enough, a super-fine gold necklace like the previous [Adjudicator's Determination] is something that can be found but not sought.

"It's okay, this off-hand item is not bad as an ordinary gold outfit with a +3 spirit," Bai Xiaowen could see it, "In a critical situation, you can designate the enemy as the target to try your luck - generally speaking, the proportion of damage and weakening spells is much higher than that of BUFF spells." ”

Bai Xiaowen's Desert Eagle is a one-handed long-range weapon, which can be equipped with this [Whispering Magic Book]. However, when using Desert Eagle's "Burst Mode" additional skill, you need to hold the gun in both hands if you have less than 20 strength, and you will have to take back the off-hand's equipment.

In a combat state, there is no problem in switching weapons and equipment. However, there is usually a little distraction when switching weapons and equipment, and if you do this in the heat of battle, you may be killed by monsters.

The treasure chests of the two bosses have been opened, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi are both considered to have exploded in character, but this kind of lightly flooded treasure chest has opened a drop that exceeds the average value.

Finally, there's the Terror Knight's treasure chest in Jericho. The team has a kill contribution rate of 89%, of which Li Shuyi accounts for 64%, which is surprisingly high.

I have to say that the "imprint of Zhao Yun" is really powerful. Jericho had been riding on a bone horse, slashing and slashing, and the siege of the crowd did little damage. It wasn't until Li Shuyi activated Zhao Yun's mark, knocked him off the horse, and cut off Jericho's arms and legs in 30 seconds, that Jericho could only be slaughtered. Therefore, it is normal for Li Shuyi to have a 64% kill contribution.

Moreover, Jericho's battle rating is A, which means a full 3 draw chances.

"You got a special item: Jericho's Journal. This item is guaranteed to drop and does not count towards the loot list. ”

An old diary appears in front of him. The style is somewhat similar to Ian's journal.

"What is this?" Li Shuyi wondered.

"Don't look at it, I've already guessed it," Bai Xiaowen shook his head, "Jericho, it should be Ian's comrade-in-arms, the knight of the Black Blade Adjudicator Force." He may have discovered the problems of Momiji City and came here to try to find out the truth, but was calculated by Lord March and the Lich Ebyzer, contracted the necromantic plague, and became the Lord of the Dread Knights. ”

Li Shuyi took a cursory look at the log, and sure enough, what Bai Xiaowen said can be roughly confirmed.

"It's good that Berita is gone, otherwise she would have been sad. Li Shuyi sighed.

Bai Xiaowen also had a trace of indescribable emotion in his heart, he shook his head and said, "Okay, this is not reality, but the spiritual world...... See what's in Jericho's chest. ”

The three draws were used in turn, and a spiritual reminder came:

"You have received a special item: the Oath of Brokenness. ”

"You got the item: Cry of the Dead. ”

"You've acquired elite blue gear: knight's bracers. ”

The Broken Oath is another temporary team-building prop, which is still limited to awakened people below level 6 (including level 6), and 2 people team up to explore the spirit world. In any case, the value of this thing is no worse than a piece of gold equipment, and of course the best gold equipment is not necessarily tied up.

[Scream of the Dead: A-rank item, summons an elite Terror Knight to fight for you for 600 seconds after use.] Elite Terror Knight has charge, sweep, and enslavement skills. Currently, it can be used 2/2 times. 】

The value of this item is close to that of the [Bronze Man Order], and it is very effective when used at the right time. Needless to say, this kind of summoning prop is the most suitable for Bai Xiaowen.

The last [Knight's Bracer] is a blue suit, which has only a simple attribute, +2 Strength. This attribute is also relatively affordable, and Li Shuyi just needs it.

After the boss's chest is opened, it's the turn of the elite chest. However, these elite treasure chests are heavily flooded, and the robbers' killing contribution often accounts for four to eighty percent!

The reason why this is so is because Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's focus is on the three bosses, and for the elite undead soldiers and elite-level horror knights, they are basically a hand-to-hand fight when they run by, and it is reasonable that the contribution value is low.

With so many elite treasure chests, only two pieces of blue equipment have been opened.

[Knight Standard Greatsword] is a two-handed weapon with a high attack power, and an additional 15% parry rate is a highlight, but the attack speed is a hard injury, which is too slow. The second piece of equipment is called [Smooth Bone Shield], which is a light shield that can block a certain amount of physical damage, and is assigned to Li Shuyi as a backup.

The ordinary treasure chest is even more lackluster, and can basically be seen as a small money bag with only psionic points......

After opening the treasure chest, the spiritual energy points on the two of them skyrocketed by nearly 20,000, and the deficit of Bai Xiaowen's use of the big snake nagi was basically made up, and the total amount of spiritual energy points returned to the early 60,000s.

The excitement and excitement of the continuous lottery made the tired spirit of the two recover a little after the battle.

"Let's go, there's still a lot to do. ”

Momiji Castle has been occupied, but the city is far from peaceful. The remaining undead legionnaires fled in all directions without a commander. And witnessing this terrible war, the ordinary human residents of Red Leaf City are in a great panic.

Yes, Bai Xiaowen advanced all the way to the Lord's Mansion, and what he faced was basically an undead legion. But it doesn't mean that the residents of Red Leaf City are all undead - you must know that the population of Red Leaf City is tens of thousands, and if they all become undead, even if one person throws a bone, it can drown Bai Xiaowen's men and horses.

Those undead soldiers are still disguised as humans, maintaining the fragile and false appearance of Red Leaf City.

And after Bai Xiaowen invaded Red Leaf City, the undead soldiers tore off their disguises. The residents of Red Leaf City were already frightened by the robbers under Bai Xiaowen's command, and at this time, seeing that the guards they were usually familiar with had become undead monsters, Red Leaf City staged a big drama of robbers fighting the undead, and they were even more panicked and didn't know what to do.

Many residents of Momiji City have opted for a soft run.

In fact, these people have all been infected with the necromantic plague, but to a relatively shallow extent.

The first batch of infected people in Red Leaf City were the officers under the lord March, and then the guards. According to the description in the [Necromantic Plague Plan], the Lich Ebyzer was also very cautious when spreading the plague, never showing his face, following the route of officers, guards, inner city squares, outer towns, and slums, slowly spreading and trying not to attract attention.

Even so, the abnormality of Red Leaf City still made Jericho, the knight of the Black Blade Adjudicator, wonder, and this led to the follow-up incident.

Bai Xiaowen and the others walked out of the underground research institute and began to reward the meritorious robbers and settle the residents of Red Leaf City.

Bai Xiaowen canonized Kitts as a knight, and the fief was a deserted farm in Baishi Town. This made Kitts overjoyed, he originally thought that the canonization of knights that the lord boss said was just talking, but he didn't expect it to come true so quickly.

A bandit turned out to be a knight, which Kitts never imagined.

As for which part of the fiefdom is where birds don't, Kitts doesn't care at all. Anyway, Lao Tzu is also a noble lord now.

The other robbers were envious, jealous and hateful, especially the elite robbers who thought that their strength was not weaker than Kitts, and their eyes were even more jealous.

"Kitts's canonization is just the first step," Bai Xiaowen's faint voice suppressed the discussion of the robbers, "In the next half a month, I will canonize the second batch of knights." Fight bravely under my command, I don't care what your background is, if you make meritorious deeds, you will have a chance to be promoted. ”

"Within half a month?"

The robbers were all surprised, this time was simply within reach. This also coincides with the psychological characteristics of the robbers, which suddenly makes the eyes of many robbers light up.

Generally speaking, the lord canonizes knights, and they are very cautious. Because to be a knight means to give a fief, to divide a small part of one's own territory.

Bai Xiaowen then rewarded the robber guards with the wealth of Red Leaf City that he had looted. Red Leaf City is indeed much richer than White Stone Town, Bai Xiaowen only took out a small part of the gold coins in his inventory, and filled every robber's pocket, even with both hands.

Next, Bai Xiaowen wrote an announcement and began to settle the people.

In the announcement, Bai Xiaowen wrote that he was ordered by the empire to come to Red Leaf City to exterminate the undead lord Ma Qi and destroy the lair of the undead. Anyway, it's not the first time that the tiger skin of the empire has been ripped off.

However, behind the announcement, Bai Xiaowen told the truth about the necromantic plague, and bluntly said that the residents were likely to have been infected and would become undead slaves after death.

The reason why Bai Xiaowen said bluntly was to find volunteers for human experiments on the necromantic plague.

In the announcement, Bai Xiaowen wrote in detail some of the symptoms of the early, middle, and late stages of infection with the necromantic plague, and explained that now the scholars of the empire are stepping up research on the treatment of the necromantic plague, and infected people at different stages are needed to do experiments.

After this announcement list was posted, not only did it not have the effect of reassuring the people, but it made the residents of Red Leaf City even more panicked. No one wants to die and become a brainless slave of the dead.

There was a slight riot in Momiji City, and some of the rioters felt that they did not have many days to live, and began to smash and loot, and even kill people and set fires. However, Bai Xiaowen had already ordered the robber guards to be divided into pieces, patrolling around, and caught a group of murderers who smashed and looted, tied them all up, and sent them to the underground research institute.

Two days passed, and Dr. Zombie had enough samples. Of course, not all of the samples were murderers, and there were several volunteers who volunteered to serve as samples for human experiments.

Everywhere there are noble people and there are despicable people. Bai Xiaowen could only ask Dr. Zombie to take care of those volunteers as much as possible, and not let them do experiments with too high a risk factor.

Two days later, in the afternoon, the bandit guards were patrolling the castle head of Momiji Castle. Suddenly, a sharp siren whistle sounded.
