Chapter 556 Seems to Have a Picture
Richard then followed Quentin all the way to a two-story wooden building on the edge of the gathering place.
Quentin pushed the door and walked in, but instead of going upstairs, he walked straight to a corner of the wooden building, lifted a plank, revealed a passage downward, and walked in.
Richard followed a piece and found a cellar beneath the wooden building.
The cellar was large, three to four hundred square meters, about the size of a basketball court. Numerous torches hung on the four walls, illuminated brightly, and near the walls there were several wooden shelves with miscellaneous objects, and I don't know what to do with them.
At this time, Quentin said the second sentence so far to Richard, still clueless: "You can call me Mr. Puster." β
"Pust?" Richard was stunned for a moment, looked at the other party and exclaimed, "Shouldn't it be Teacher Quentin?"
"Quentin?" Hearing Richard's words, the other party snorted coldly, "I don't like this stupid-sounding name, from now on, I only allow you to call me Teacher Puster, you know!"
"Well, yes. Richard responded "obediently", but in his heart he felt that things were obviously abnormal, and there might be an inside story to dig up.
At this time, Quentin or Puster spoke up and said to Richard, "Do you know what I want you to do?"
"I don't know. Richard shook his head, which was true.
"Then you'd better be prepared. "I want you to do something very difficult." β
"It's hard, it's hard, what the hell?" asked Richard, tentatively, hoping for more information.
Pust didn't hide anything, probably felt that Richard, an ordinary, weak and indecent student, did not pose any threat to him, and it was absolutely impossible to escape from his control, and said bluntly: "To tell you simply, that is, I want you to come, not to be my student, but to let you be another person's student." β
"To be a student of another person?" Richard looked puzzled.
"You're weird, aren't you, I can explain it to you briefly. "The person I made you a student of the other party is the oldest wizard in this gathering, and no one knows how old she is except herself." Or a hundred years old, maybe one hundred and twenty years old, or one hundred and fifty years old?
Correspondingly, the strength of the other party is very strong, according to rumors, he was once a third-level wizard, and he was the top master of the entire jungle hut, and he was able to completely crush the existence of the other wizard organization masters.
However, because she is too old and has suffered many serious injuries, her strength has been declining in recent years - little by little, from a third-level wizard to a second-level wizard, and from a second-level wizard to a first-level wizard. If she continues, maybe she will become like an ordinary person, or even inferior to an ordinary person, and eventually die of old age.
This also leads to the other party's personality is very eccentric, easy to lose her temper, and there is nothing very important, and the rest of the people will not contact her. The wizards of this gathering place, who had very little contact with her, tried to forget each other in this way.
But the other party is not so easy to forget. On the one hand, after all, the other party still has the cultivation of a first-level wizard, and he has mastered a lot of esoteric spells, especially spiritual spells. Once the other party is really angry, the second-level wizard will not dare to confront her, and can only treat it gently.
In addition, the other party is also one of the guardians of the sacred land of the jungle hut, holding the legendary key to the holy land. While the sanctuary is symbolic to the people of the Jungle Lodge and to most of the people in this gathering place, it is not the same for others, as long as they can get the key...... Ahem!"
The more Puster spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice grew louder and louder, as if there was a secret that had been hidden for too long and wanted to share it with the rest of the people. But in the end, I still realized that something was wrong and stopped it in time.
When Richard heard this, his heart moved: One of the guardians of the Holy Land, the key to the Holy Land, well, it's a bit interesting.
"Ahem. With a few light coughs, Puster quickly recovered to his poker face, looked at Richard and said, "You can't understand what you say too much." Anyway, you just need to understand that there is an old witch named 'Gulo', she is very powerful, and I want you to be her student. β
Of course, it wasn't easy to be her student. Pust looked at Richard and said, "Especially with your ordinary qualifications, it is extremely difficult, and you must train." Only through training and becoming excellent can you get the recognition of the other party and become a student of the other party, and you will benefit immensely at that time. β
Hearing this, Richard looked like he had been taught a lot on the surface, but he couldn't help shaking his head in his heart: Pust's words could only deceive the ignorant teenager.
Since the qualifications are not enough, then why choose him? It is even more nonsense to become excellent through training. If the qualifications can be easily changed with some training, then there will be no mediocre wizards in this world at all.
Combined with the other party's two names, as well as other performances, Richard analyzed that the other party seemed to have some plans for the so-called Holy Land Key.
And very coincidentally, he also has some needs for the Holy Land Key.
In this case, he is willing to cooperate with the other party patiently for a period of time to see what the other party's purpose is.
Thinking of this, Richard had a slightly excited look on his face, and said to Pust: "Teacher Pust, I must work hard according to your instructions." β
"That's good, by the way, put this on first. As he spoke, Pust removed a heavy object from the wooden frame and threw it over.
Richard caught it "with a little difficulty", and when he unfolded it, he found that it was a vest. But it's not an ordinary vest, it's surrounded by pieces of crystal plates that are carved with strange textures and exude vague, undetectable, but very dangerous fluctuations.
Richard has studied a lot of magic patterns, and with a casual sweep, he can determine that the crystal plate is a very inferior magic pattern, which is used to imitate the effect of some kind of fire spell. The power was a few points greater than the white jade piece he had made a long time ago, but it didn't go too far.
In other words, Pust threw him a bomb vest.
After seeing the bomb vest, Richard was a little more sure of the previous guess in his heart, and he still looked ignorant on the surface, obediently put on the vest, walked up to Pust and said, "Teacher Puster, I'm dressed, what am I going to do next?"
Pust did not answer immediately, first up and down, carefully looked at Richard, nodded with satisfaction, and then handed a dagger to Richard's hand.
The dagger also has a magic pattern on it, and Richard analyzed that the function of the magic pattern should be to break a specific spell shield. The blade of the dagger is jet black, exuding a faint fishy smell, which makes people feel a little dizzy, and this is easy to determine: it is poisonous.
Pust said loudly: "What I am giving you now is a precious spell prop, you must be careful not to be cut, otherwise your life will be lost." β
With that, Pust pulled Richard to the side of the cellar.
I saw that there were white lines drawn on the ground here, piles of miscellaneous objects, as if simulating something, and a puppet in the corner, with an ugly face.
Pust pointed at the puppet and said loudly: "The training you have to do is to wear a vest and hold a dagger, from your current position, cross the white line and obstacles, run to the puppet's position as fast as possible, and stab the puppet's body."
"Thisβ" Richard looked at Pust, "Mr. Puster, what kind of training is this?"
"Very important training!" Pust said without blinking, "This is the training that Master Gulo values very much! Only through this training can you become his student."
Now that your assassination puppet is a simulation, then you will tattoo Master Gulo himself. Don't panic, actually, it's absolutely impossible for you to hurt Master Gu Luo, but if you can get close to her body, you can count it as excellent, understand?"
"......" Richard was speechless for a while, but on the surface he still cooperated, "Yes." β
"That's good. Pust spoke up and patted Richard on the shoulder encouragingly, "Let's get started, let me see your potential." β
