Although it is not known why Zerabe, Countess of Northumbard, also knows the news of the ancient battlefield of Seanzu, since Gordon and the other side have the same purpose and take opposite positions, it is very likely that there will be a conflict in the foreseeable future. Among the Northumbradians, apart from the Storm Lord Zerabe and the Revenant Master Olafone, the others also had great strength. For example, the wild elf who provoked Gordon just now and dared to rob him blatantly is also a powerful person with the advanced class "Shadow Walker" of the Wanderer.
It is not an easy task to compete with such a group of Northumbrand elites. The task given to him by Bahamut is to enter the ancient battlefield of Seanzu to liberate the strongest legion on the side of the metal dragon, the "Gold and Silver Wings". But in that city that has disappeared from the world for thousands of years, it is not just the metal dragon. The five-colored dragons besieging Seanzu are even stronger than the Gold and Silver Winged Legions.
If only the Northumbrårds had taken a step forward and freed the five-colored dragons from the battlefield of Seanzugu...... The picture was too beautiful for Gordon to imagine.
Fortunately, although Countess Zerabe's team is strong, it is also very popular. At least after the battle just now, Gordon already knows the professions and fighting styles of the two core characters in this team. In this way, he, a mage hidden in the shadows, can make targeted preparations in advance in case of emergency.
And among the Northumbradians, there is also a witch Triss who is a hostage. It's also a destabilizing factor, and Gordon can also find a way to take advantage of it.
Although he took over the task of the demon lord Baru Dilong. But Gordon didn't set off immediately. He spent four full days in the City of Symmetry preparing for this adventure.
First of all. He made three magic rings. Each ring has a constant "Endure Elemental Damage". With the protection of this spell, even if you are in the polar regions, you will not be affected by the cold climate. If you want to venture out into an icy environment, this spell can save you a lot of trouble.
In addition, there is a constant disguise illusion on the magic ring, which makes it easier for Gordon and the two girls to hide their identities. If you rely on him to cast spells every day to continuously bless illusions, the loss of mana is too great. If a large amount of mana is wasted in this kind of place, then it will be difficult for him to cast spells as he wants when he fights.
In addition to the constant two spells, this Gordon specially made zuò magic ring. There is another special feature. This magic ring made of Mithril is set with six citrines arranged in a six-pointed star array. Coupled with the four runes drawn in the blood of the red dragon, Gordon has given this magic ring a new ability: lightning absorption.
Each citrine is capable of absorbing lightning energy equivalent to the energy level of the Six Rings spell. And when all six citrines are fully absorbed with lightning energy, they can also be released to counterattack the enemy.
This kind of magic prop with the style of "give back to the other" is Gordon's secret weapon to restrain the Storm Lord.
As for the Revenant Master, Gordon has the robes of the Blessed Mage of the Crows. Copying a few more Radiant Spell Scrolls would be enough to deal with.
After all the preparations were completed, almost all of the money that Gordon had scavenged from the Northumbard mage Hartson, who was escorting the arms, was spent. Because of the gems and gold coins on his body, he first had to quietly go to the black market and exchange them with other adventurers in the main material realm to become soul gems. Only then can you use the soul gem to go to the demon merchant to buy alchemy materials.
Without the ordinary equivalent of soul gems that truly circulated in the abyss, it would be impossible to buy a high-grade alchemy material such as true citrine from the hands of demon merchants with only gold and silver.
Every time you exchange it against huàn currency. He had to be exploited by profiteers once, so don't look at the wealth looted in the last war. In a place like the Abyss, it's not very useful.
"The financial system in this abyss is really chaotic." Gordon grumbled in his heart. He put on a magic ring, then picked up the other two, went to the next room, and knocked on the door.
During the few days of the Blue Wildebeest, Gordon had been living alone in one room, while Vignia and Ji'er had stayed in another. Although this arrangement allows him to concentrate on the making of magic props and the copying of scrolls every day, in the dead of night, it is a little lonely.
Originally, when he was in Freiris City, he was accompanied by Vignya every day and could eat a "full meal", but now he can only sleep alone every night, which is indeed a little unaccustomed. Gordon sometimes wants to go to his fiancée to sneak in and relive the beautiful and warm good times, but he is always refused.
"Hate it, Lord Earl, what if Ji'er finds out? That girl is very thin-skinned......"
"I'm very thick-skinned, even if Ji'er finds out, it doesn't matter."
"No, in short, it just doesn't work. People can't eat secretly behind Ji'er's back. Of course, if you have the ability to get the beautiful little phoenix of the Phoenix family to bed with you, they won't mind serving you with her......"
This conversation has happened more than once between two people.
Although Venia's suggestion is tempting, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the feasibility is too low, and this cunning girl just deliberately drew a large pie to appease him. As a result, Gordon still couldn't get a full bite of food on Venia, and the three of them were about to set off in a group to adventure in the northwest of the Kingdom of Order.
Hearing Gordon's knock on the door, Vinya soon opened the door and let him in. The two girls are also ready to go.
While Gordon was preparing for the trip, the two girls were not idle. Even if they like to go shopping, the City of Symmetry, a place full of demons and scheming adventurers, is not a good place to go. Venia used this time to copy many magic scrolls and make a batch of healing potions. Although the druid's healing ability is still a little worse than that of the priest, he is also an excellent healer. It would be a lot more reassuring to have such a character in the adventure team.
Although Ji'er is not an orthodox mage, as an arcane knight, she can also cast spells below the four rings, so many low-level spell scrolls that need to be used frequently, Gordon handed it over to her to prepare. In addition, Ji'er has a magical piece of equipment called "Nerolan's Source Energy Channel", which allows the wearer to increase the caster's level by three when using a qiē magic item, including but not limited to a spell scroll, magic wand, magic artifact, etc.
In other words, although Ji'er can only cast spells below the four rings, she can still easily use spell scrolls and magic wands and other items within the seven rings. If it is expressed in terms of the number of games, I am afraid that these gloves have a bonus value of more than 50 in the skill of "using magic items".
Such a piece of equipment is indeed very suitable for a young lady like Ji'er, who has a lot of money and a lot of stock in the dimensional bag.
"Lord Earl, we can go." Venia straightened out her emerald green cloak. The female druid wore a silver silk soft armor and tight leather pants under this cloak with golden oak leaf clasps, and hard boots made of demon hunting spider carapaces.
During the battle of Huiyang Festival, Venia woke up and found that Ji'er had been kidnapped by Anna, so she followed her all the way out of Red Maple Manor in her pajamas. Since then, he has always relied on his transformation ability and magic to fight. Now this equipment is naturally purchased for her by Gordon at the expense of the City of Symmetry. Although these equipment are at most excellent-level equipment, far less than the sub-artifact mage robe on Gordon's body, they are all very practical. For example, her boots made of demon hunting spider carapaces can provide the wearer with a certain reduction in mind, disease, and toxins, and have a deterrent effect on weak demons such as Kwassei.
And Miss Ji'er is equipped with equipment, so she doesn't have to worry about Gordon.
"Wait a minute, and put on this ring before you go." Gordon handed the magic ring of his own handmade zuò to the two girls.
Behind the act of a man giving a ring to a woman, there is a customary custom. Ji'er's face suddenly turned crimson when she saw the beautiful Mithril ring in Gordon's hand that emitted a pale yellow light, matching her phoenix armor that burned like flames.
"You...... Why did you suddenly remember to send ...... Got me a ring? ”
Gordon glanced at Ji'er, knowing that she seemed to have misunderstood something, and explained, "There are several spells on this ring constantly, which will be useful for our adventure. Put it on. ”
"Original...... I see. The eldest lady, who knew that she would be wrong, turned even redder, grabbed the ring, and turned her face away.
And Miss Druid was obviously more open than the arrogant Ji'er, her eyes were rolling, she looked at her fiancé with affection, and said coquettishly: "Lord Earl, I want you to put it on for me with your own hands." ”
"Hey, what are you playing?" Gordon quietly questioned his fiancée with a teleportation technique.
"I'm not playing, Lord Earl." Vinia's eyes flashed with a sly light, like a kitten trying to steal fish from her master. She whispered, "This is the first special gift I have received from you since we were engaged, shouldn't you have put it on for me personally?" Moreover, if you want to stimulate Miss Ji'er to take the initiative, how can you not take some measures? ”
Gordon glanced at the fluffy tail flicking behind the female druid, and felt that his fiancée had more and more ghost ideas. It is said that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Could it be that because there are too many ghost ideas in his stomach, he has affected her with him?
