Chapter 126: Legacy Issues
"You are?" Xue Hua was stunned, he didn't seem to have seen this guy, why did this person look very familiar with him?
"Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Edgarben, and I'm the apprentice of the legendary mage Lord Dragognam... I think we'd better get in the car and talk about it, I'm afraid they'll have to wait. ”
Edgar waved his hand towards the entrance to the teleportation plaza, and the carriage with the logo of the Mage Lugoin that Xue Hua had been sitting in drove in from the entrance.
"Okay." Xue Hua nodded, judging from the situation of chickens and dogs jumping around him as soon as he appeared just now, this is really not a good place to chat.
Xue Hua quickly took the sisters into the carriage of the Mage Society, and after Edgar also came up, the carriage quickly set off and headed for the inner city.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Xue Hua, since the news of the end of the audit came out, those demons and monsters who were originally retracted into the corner have now begun to appear again, and they have a tendency to get worse......"
Edgar sat down on the seat opposite Xue Hua, reached out and picked up the teapot on the small table, poured a cup of fragrant fruit syrup for Xue Hua and the two girls, and then said in a slightly apologetic tone.
"No need to apologize, and besides, don't call me 'Mr. Xue Hua', it sounds weird, just call me 'Xue'... As for those cows, ghosts, gods, snakes... Heh~ It's not the first time I've met it. ”
Xue Hua remembered that Ted, who was still locked up in the belly sac of a certain king worm, when the worm mother Chrissa proposed a deal to this guy in exchange for freedom, this guy agreed almost without hesitation, and very cooperatively "voluntarily" drank the poison with the functions of psionic inhibition and perceptual paralysis prepared by Abbathhar himself.
Before that, he also gave his identity and origin, as well as his name.
Now Mr. Ted is paralyzed and wrapped in a fungus blanket in the belly sac of the king worm, unconsciously waiting for Xue Hua to deal with him.
"By the way, Mr. Edgar, how is it in the city of Lugoin? Is there anything I need to know? ”
Xue Hua picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, as if asking a little casually.
"Hmm... If anything, there's really one thing that has to do with you......" Edgar frowned, a puzzled look on his face.
"Oh? What's up? Xue Hua just asked casually, but he didn't expect him to leave, and there was still something related to him?
"Do you remember that necromancer Buddy who duel with you in the palace?" Edgar raised his head to look at Xue Hua and asked.
"Of course I do! How can you forget that? ”
"Buddy ran away... Well, it can't be said that we ran away, but we wanted to ask her when we were reviewing the royal family, after all, she was also one of the parties to the previous incident, but when we found the chief of the guard and asked him to bring Buddy, we were told that Buddy had not been on duty in the kingdom for a few days, so we went to her house to look for her, but we still couldn't find her.
And we found that everything of value in her house was gone, and even some of the decorations that hung on the walls were removed......
Later, we went to the station registration office and found out that she had indeed used the station to teleport to the 'Redstone Valley' area.......
We don't know why she made it to the Redstone Valley, the closest to the Barrier Mountains in the explored area of the Rugoin Border, frequented by hunted fugitives and evil pacters, but she didn't commit a crime, so there was no need to run away... We just wanted to ask her a few simple questions......"
At this, Edgar seemed to feel a little dry in his mouth, so he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of fragrant fruit syrup, and took a sip before continuing.
"We felt that something was wrong, so we went back and investigated her whereabouts, and found that someone who looked like her had been seen near the Grey Street in the outer city, and that she had taken a leave of absence in those days, just like the head of the court......
Xue, although this matter doesn't necessarily have anything to do with you, I think you should be careful... Grey Street isn't a good place, the woman ran there after losing the duel with you, and when she came back, she ran away like a thief before we could investigate her... I suspect she might have gone to find someone to deal with you......"
Hearing Edgar's words, Xue Hua couldn't help but hold his forehead and roll his eyes.
Nima... This woman is simply ......
You, a level 63 necromancer, have to deal with me, and this little budding who is only level 15 is already enough to bully people.
Why do you still have to run to call someone?
Do you want to order Bilian?!
Xue Hua had every reason to believe that Buddy went to Gray Street to find someone to deal with him, because only he knew what the bet he won from Buddy was.
On the surface, that thing can definitely make any professional go crazy.
You know, the mutation skill is a shortcut to the original prototype!
Every legendary professional who comes into contact with the primordial and first understands the primordial prototype is to communicate with the primordial through one of their own mutated skills.
The longer you acquire the mutation skill, the more familiar you will be with the mutation skill, and the easier it will be to use this skill to get in touch with the original in the future, and the more insights you will gain.
Similarly, the more mutation skills you acquire, the easier it will be for you to reach the primordial through multiple channels, and the chances of successfully comprehending the primordial form will also increase.
But skill mutation is indeed a test of talent and character, a lucky genius, level ten or twenty can even obtain mutation skills just after taking office, just like the vanguard group where Xue Hua once stayed in the Battle of the Stone Wilderness, most of the professionals there are this kind of geniuses.
But if you're unlucky... Then it is really possible to wait until level seventy, eighty, or even ninety to obtain the first mutation skill.
In that case, your understanding and mastery of this mutation skill will naturally not be perfect, and it will be even more delusional to use it to reach the primordial.
Therefore, it is conceivable how attractive an item that can help professionals mutate their skills is, even if you don't mention the far away things like the original prototype, the powerful combat power after skill mutation alone is a temptation that no one can resist.
Therefore, Xue Hua can fully understand the pain of remorse and death in his heart after Buddy loses this thing to him, and the madness of desperate to take it back......
It's a pity that what Buddy didn't know was that the broken stone had already been dismantled into a pile of pieces by Abasser, and the biological decoder inside brought Xue Hua a lot of surprises......
"Can you find out what she's doing in Grey Street?" After learning that Buddy might find someone to trouble him, Xue Hua quickly became alert and began to gather information.
He was only able to defeat Buddy in the palace because he took advantage of the rule of professional duel, necromancers must not have too many minions, and if he encountered it in the wild, thousands of ghosts who were not afraid of physical damage pounced on him, and he really couldn't bear it.
Plus this guy ran to the gray street to call for reinforcements... The strength of the reinforcements can't be worse than her, right?
Therefore, the hypothetical situation that Xue Hua has set for himself now is that two high-level professionals in their sixties will attack him.
This is undoubtedly the worst-case scenario, even if he moves all the swarm armies to the battlefield, it will be difficult to prevent the assassination of himself by high-ranking professionals.
Of course, unless he can have time to hide in the belly sac of the king worm before the other party attacks, the current king worm can also rise into the air when it is manned.
At that altitude close to the troposphere of the atmosphere, a non-legendary professional really doesn't want to do anything to him.
However, judging from the vertical descent speed of the king worm, unless he can find the traces of a high-level professional from a long distance, it is unlikely that he will have time for the king worm to lower the height to pick him up.
And it is impossible for him to stay in the belly of the king insect from today onwards, not to mention how troublesome it is, just say that with the flight altitude of the king worm, he will not be able to receive the experience of killing monsters from the swarm on the ground, in that case, his upgrade plan will be in vain, and he can only count on Zagara to keep developing the swarm to bring him experience.
Just when Xue Hua was frowning and thinking about how to resolve this wave of trouble, Edgar, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly opened the car curtain on the side and reached out to pat Xue Hua's arm.
"We're here, Xue, and Mr. Kane is at the gate to greet you."
