Chapter 236: The Secret Hidden in the Book

Looking at this guy who got carried away, Henry, who had been waiting for a long time on the side, cast a fourth-level magic "Any Gate", and instantly appeared by Nanding's side. He raised his staff and stabbed it in the chest, then snatched the ancient book back. Nanding clutched his chest and groaned in pain, which just now hit the heart.

"Oh! Bastard! How dare you sneak up on me! Most importantly, you dare to snatch my books! Nanding gritted his teeth and pulled a runestone out of his pocket and crushed it. A portal opened beside him, and several golems and thieves instantly appeared in place. The guy pointed at Henry and shouted, "Up! Cut him to pieces for me! Remember, don't hurt that ancient book! ”

Watching the enemy rush up, Henry snapped his fingers with a sneer. The Roll Box Golem directly unleashed the "Chain Lightning", "Rainbow Light Spray" and "Abidaki Death Technique" one by one, and several thieves, including Nanding, were all killed before they could rush in front of them. The golem faithfully carried out its master's orders and continued to attack, but it was quickly destroyed under the continuous blows of magic weapons and "Ma Youfu Micrometeor".

The battle ended as soon as it began. Apodell kicked the corpse on the ground and cursed, "This scumbag! I didn't expect a book to lead to so many bastards! ”

Henry flipped through the pages and saw that some of the notes had been made on it. The first few sections are written in lingua franca with "Xhosa", "Armor of Fire and Wine", and "Witchcaster", while the rest are protected by some kind of special magic, completely impossible to decipher. He smiled and waved the book in his hand at the Son of God and asked aloud, "Apodell!" Do you want to know the secrets of the road? ”

"Nonsense! Absolutely! Tell me if you know something? Apodell hurriedly stopped searching for the body and strode over.

Henry pointed out a few place names in the book and explained with a smile: "These special places in the book must have something to do with the secrets behind them." We just need to look for them one by one in order. After the worst comeback, the truth will slowly surface. ”

"But we're still on our way to Candlestick to investigate the secrets of the Iron Throne. Look at the place names on here. Both the Fleur and the Witchcaster are to the east. It will take at least a week to go back and forth, and we simply don't have enough time right now. Apodell sighed. Although he also really wanted to know the truth, his hatred for the Iron Throne prevailed.

"Don't forget I'm a mage. You walk slowly to Candle Keep first, and I'll use the "teleportation technique" to investigate these places. Remember to carry this badge with me so I can sense your location. Henry said as he pulled out his noble badge from his pocket. He didn't want to give up a lot of experience points.

Taking the badge, Apodell carefully placed it in his jacket pocket and nodded. "Then you have to be careful. I've heard that the ruins of Witchcaster and the Bridge of Fire and Wine are not only large in kobolds, but also some necromancy. ”

"Rest assured. Those little barking ones can't hurt me. As he spoke, Henry handed over the command of the Roll Crate Golem to Dinahei, and chanted a spell quickly, and a white portal gradually appeared. He smiled and waved to his teammates as he faded into place.

Located to the east of the Temple of Losanda, the academy was destroyed by the jealous Calisan mage at its peak. All that remains is a large area of ruin, and the ghost of the academy's founder, Witchcaster, who is still roaming around. Henry walked through the portal and saw a white transparent figure wandering, and through a simple exchange, the ghost hoped that he would go underground to retrieve a book.

After Henry took on this task, he did not hesitate to summon a large number of monsters and elemental creatures to sweep the entire dungeon. None of the werewolves, wolves, or giant spiders in it had escaped. Kill them all. Counting the loot, he found the book that the ghost needed.

Give the book back to the ghosts. Henry gained 1,000 XP. He then inquired about another ancient book, and the ghost uttered a few key words: "statue", "armor", and "exchange". Based on his memories before the time travel, Henry teleported directly to the town of Vale in the southeast.

It is a small village founded entirely by halflings. Although they are very hospitable, guests are better off keeping an eye on their wallets and valuables. Because these little things are very curious, it is very likely that they will inadvertently put your gold coins and gems in their own pockets.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Henry directly blessed the "stealth technique" and came to the underground labyrinth through the secret door. Here he helps a group of ghosts fulfill their wish and obtains an ancient piece of armor. In the end, he also killed the ogre mage and a half-body hot mole who secretly controlled the place.

Having obtained a quest item, Henry hurried to the ancient ruins north of the Gnoll Fortress. As soon as he stepped through the portal, he saw a caravan that had been attacked. The ground was littered with the corpses of humans, cows and horses, and a woman with long blond hair was speaking to a man with messy hair and red eyes.

Seeing a stranger appear, the man immediately stood up with a two-handed sword. The woman quickly ran to Henry and pleaded, "Please! Get out of here! Bregie is not very sane right now. He had just finished attacking a caravan and was suffering a condemnation of conscience. ”

Seeing the man's trance-like eyes, Henry immediately recalled the other person on the wanted list of Nasikai, the former captain Breggie, who had gone crazy. He gently pushed the woman away, and quickly cast a fourth-level magic "Breaking Magic". Breggie shuddered, and finally dropped the greatsword in his hand and came back to his senses. He looked at the corpses on the ground and his bloodstained hands and wept bitterly, although his brain had been controlled by this cursed weapon, he remembered everything he had done.

Henry comforted Bregie a few times, and then relayed the words of the priest of the temple of Nasikai. Under the persuasion of his sister Leresa, the decadent-faced man finally gave up the idea of suicide and decided to go to the temple of Heim, the god of guards, to atone for his sins. Looking at the distant backs of the two people, Henry performed a "discernment" on the two-handed sword on the ground.

Two-handed greatsword: "Curse of Fury"

It's a cursed sword, but it's outstanding. It can keep people motivated to fight at any time. After entering the battle. The Sword Bearer will immediately enter the Berserk. Attack everyone who comes into contact with him until he calms down or is beaten unconscious. The sword is powerful, but it's up to the user to decide if it's worth the risk. Once the Battle Fury is over, it can only be removed by means such as removing the curse.

Special Abilities:

Makes the sword wielder berserk

The sword can only be removed if the curse is removed

He carefully wrapped the hilt of the sword in a piece of cloth and put it directly into the dimensional bag. Although this weapon is very sharp, it can also put people into a berserk state. But as a mage who likes to be in control, the less instability there is, the better. When you have time, try to remove the curse above, and if you can't get rid of it, you can only dispose of it.

After walking northwest along the forest path for half an hour, Henry saw a scholar and a large group of workers digging up the ruins. He walked up to Charleston, the head of the house. Nebel negotiated. The latter, hearing that there was a learned mage in front of him, readily agreed to the request to be a bystander.

To speed up the excavation, Henry used several "fossil to clay" magic scrolls. When the tomb was dug up, Henry felt something evil awakened. He tried to warn the scholars who were leading the group, but Charleston had gone into a frenzy of research, ignoring the warnings.

Following the passage inside the ruins, they made their way to the innermost room. Just when Charleston had just concluded that it was a tomb from 5,000 years ago, the surrounding excavations suddenly began to go into a trance. The men claimed that they heard some voices and then began to become more and more manic, and at the end of the day they all went crazy and attacked.

The attacks of these ordinary people were no threat to Henry. After knocking everyone unconscious with his cane, he found the idol he needed for the mission from a sarcophagus. This is the shrine of the Nethrel period. Storm Star Kirsa. His priesthood is storms, earthquakes, strife, and betrayal. However, the god later changed his name, and he is now the famous Storm Lord Talos.

The sudden turn of events scared Charleston a lot. The gray-haired, helpless scholar shuddered and tried to explain the reason, but Henry didn't have time to listen to the nonsense. The moment he heard that the experience was in his hands, he packed the idol and left the tomb.

Three undead warriors in armor with red eyes blocked the doorway. Henry tried to negotiate, but the other party apparently didn't want him to leave with the idol. Under the bombardment of powerful magic, the undead warriors were soon all turned into a pile of scrap metal. Now that all the items have been gathered, it's time to return to Witchcaster to deliver the mission.

As soon as he returned to the door of Wulkath, Henry was suddenly attacked. The undead knight, who claims to believe in Mirkor, is very difficult to deal with, and seems to be able to draw energy from the underworld. By the time he attacked, the sky was dark. After the end, Henry used the seventh-level magic "Limited Wish" to cut off the source of power behind the undead knight before reluctantly killing him.

After the battle, he looked very tired, and he couldn't wait to give the item to the ghost and get a magic greatsword. After a simple identification, specific information was obtained.

Greatsword: "Vampire's Revenge"

Rumors about the weapon's provenance have reached the point of being unbelievable, but like anything that comes from a dream, its appearance doesn't match its qualities. As the name suggests, the sword does suck blood, but not in the way one might think, the sword is actually a trap made by vampires for sword wialders.

Savvy vampires have crafted countless similar swords, costing many foolish adventurers their lives. Every time you swing this sword, you actually hurt the user yourself, and you are sending the user's life energy to the other party. Not only that, but there is a curse under this weapon that cannot be removed, and the user's mind is disturbed, and he will not want to remove this sword at all. It's a magical artifact that doesn't want to be bothered to find, and people would rather have a drink than be chased by a horde of annoying ghosts in the wilderness.
