Chapter 9: The Rats in the Sewers

That night, Raphael sat at his desk with a magic book from the goblin pit and meditated quietly.

He now entered the spell into the spellbook, which is to mention that the mage has a first-level spell slot for every two levels, and then when he enters the higher level, he will be split in half according to the spell slot of the previous order. This is a setting that cannot be changed no matter how talented you are, which means that Raphael can now only enter four zero-level tricks and two first-order spells into the spellbook.

This also makes the magician profession particularly wasteful at the beginning, and the picture of the masking is usually just a thought, if this situation is completed and changed, it is two years later, when the goddess of magic suddenly left the kingdom of God, the magic net was completely paralyzed, and all the mages could not release magic through the spell bit.

At this time, the mage began to look for a way out, and gestures, syllables, and equipment began to be valued by the mage! Those mages who successfully unleash magic through gestures and syllables began to be called mages, and this was a critical period for the mage profession to begin to become powerful! And those mages who can't succeed can only choose trees to live in and give up the mage profession!

Even latecomers only started playing this class if they were able to use gestures and syllables to cast spells, even after the web was restored.

However, it is not that the magic bit is not needed and is abandoned. Spell slots are also very important, as they save the mage some of their casting time, which is definitely beneficial for combat! In particular, high-level mages will make a detailed plan for their spell slot settings. Consider it in terms of defense, attack, counterattack, sneak attack, and ambush.

The mage of the prophecy department is very good at this, he can predict some of his fortunes tomorrow in advance to choose his magic. Of course, these Raphaels are not qualified to do it yet, so what is there to consider about the two mage positions? There's certainly nothing wrong with two defense-based magic, attack-based? What's the fart effect? Two fireballs? Then you might as well release it yourself!

He really didn't know what he would encounter about the task given to him by the temple, he only remembered that there was this task, and as for the process, he really forgot a little. Otherwise, he may think about it, but now in the face of an unknown situation, he can do what he has to do, otherwise what else?

Closing the magic book, Raphael lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day, the three of them prepared to arrive at the entrance to the sewers, which Bishop Augsg had spoken of yesterday, and the entrance was guarded by soldiers. Since the sewer incident, it has also attracted some attention. The lord of the castle also sent some soldiers into it, but those who entered never came out. That's why people are scared. As for the temple, they don't show too much attention, and they usually don't interfere too much in this kind of thing, unless the lord or the royal family asks for it. In order to maintain his behavior of not interfering in politics.

However, if too many believers make a request, the gods will also let the subordinate shrine deal with it. And the Temple of the Goddess of Glory is obviously like this.

"It's dangerous here, don't get close!" The soldier saw three men walking down from a carriage and blocked the path of the three men with their weapons at a slight angle.

"Don't worry, I'm sent by the Glorious Temple to investigate the situation inside!" Raphael pulled the badge out of his pocket and showed it to the soldiers.

"Yes, Knight!" The soldiers straightened themselves and gave Raphael a military salute.

"Don't be so nervous, tell me what you all know." Raphael put away the badge and smiled at the soldiers, saying in a relaxed tone.

"Yes, sir. Half a month ago, we received a strange noise from the sewers in the civilian area, and at first the residents thought that people from the slum were fighting here, but the sound lasted not for a day or two, but for a week, and the residents heard more and more eerie sounds, so they told the city guards about the situation. The captain sent a group of soldiers in, but none of them returned. So we can only be sent to guard the sewers and not let people in! ”

The soldier told him in great detail what he knew, and he could hear that he was still a little frightened. It is human nature that people always have fear in the face of the unknown, especially before such unknown things!

"Hmm." Knowing the situation, Raphael thought about it for a while, and sure enough, this ??? The task is not easy, I wanted to see if I could catch a little clue, but now it seems that it is really difficult.

"By the way, do you still have arrows here? When I came out, I was in a hurry and forgot to bring it. Oh yes. Is there a construction plan for the sewer? Raphael said with some embarrassment, this is not forgetting, mainly combined with the words just now, he felt that the arrows he came from the goblin yesterday may not be able to exert enough effect, so he temporarily made up his mind and planned to make some ordinary arrows.

"Yes, both. Don't know what type of arrows adults want? Without much thought, the soldier immediately responded.

"Are there armor-piercing arrows and piercing arrows? If you don't have one, you can use ordinary arrows. Raphael didn't think much of it before he said, because the city guards usually have this type of arrow.

"Yes, there are both armor-piercing arrows and piercing arrows, and I will prepare them for adults immediately!" The soldier said, saluted, and ran away.

Raphael returned to the carriage with Dalena and Jarvis, who equipped the weapons they had brought from the goblins yesterday, and the weapons they had brought from Yuki were left in the carriage as spare weapons. Usually a professional who is on the go will have a set of equipment that can be replaced, in case of a problem with a piece of equipment.

It's just that Raphael's gold on them can't support it, so they will go to pit that goblin. However, their equipment was also looted, and it was just black eating black. Raphael also doesn't have any psychological pressure, he doesn't think he has any good knightly qualities. Naturally, it was very easy to take it.

Raphael pinned the Swift Shadow crossbow behind him, and brought the bows and arrows that everyone needed. The light crossbow was often a favorite piece of equipment for loiters, assassins, and nobles, as it was lightweight, compact, and easy to use.

Wanderers and Assassins can be used for reconnaissance, shaming, and killing, and nobles are usually used for pretending to be coercive and a little self-defense. After all, when caught off guard, this kind of gadget is still quite practical. If you combine it with some more powerful magic arrows, the power that can burst out is also very impressive!

Dalena hung the shield on her back, the two bronze-level swords were pinned to her waist, and the Swift Shadow Light Crossbow was also pinned behind her like Raphael, and a centaur strongbow was held in her hand.

As for the light armor, she has already put it on, I have to say, the high strength attribute is different, with so many things, Dalena walked without changing as usual, which made Raphael, a weak scumbag with eight points of strength, really embarrassed......

Jarvis also brought the fast sword, the centaur strong bow, and the Swift Shadow light crossbow, I have to say that Raphael's way of buying goods according to their materials has increased the combat effectiveness of both of them by one or two grades!

(Ask for collection, ask for recommendation!) I wittily voted for a recommendation last month, and I was able to get the title of vote king. Seek transcendence! )
