Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 117: Macabuda Twelve

Siegel stood in the cold dawn, looking at Macabota, which was shrouded in gloomy clouds. He could see several corpses lying down in the dirty snow by the roadside, and the warg who broke free of the chain was feasting. A team of newly escorted slaves was curled up in a cold iron cage, scared to move by the scene of the beast eating. The wolf's teeth cut open the belly, and the icy intestines, which had long been frozen, condensed into a large lump, which was only softened slowly by the steam from the wolf's mouth. In the city, many residents were killed every day, among which the largest number of slaves could not support themselves. This is a city that belongs only to the young and middle-aged. There is only one way to die from aging, and this death definitely does not mean the end of life.

When thinking of death, the Master recalled the tragic situation he saw in Bacon Town. There were broken corpses all over the floor, blood on the walls and trees, and the whole city smelled of smoke and blood. The riot created by the Knox Common Club destroyed the entire city, and on top of the corpse, they got a Fire Soul Crystal.

This stone contains the energy of fire, but it is not the element of fire, which Siegel can feel. The normal fire element represents temperature, a burning power without emotional fluctuations. But the flame soul crystal is full of roaring souls and screams of pain, and above this is a burning red flame. After getting this gem, Siegel tried to study its use and usage. At that time, the idea was to use it as a spell casting material to enhance the activity of the fire element, so as to achieve the purpose of destroying the dock. But with Siegel's constant experimentation, except for the resentful spirits that were guided out of the flame soul crystal, there was no fire power at all.

He lit the fire, and the pipe was burning with the best tobacco leaves he found from the Witch Festival of the Stone Village. Of course, the pipe was also an item obtained from the same place. The leaves are of good quality and burn slowly without smoking, so Siegel simply held the pipe in his hand and held it to his chest, letting the fragrant smoke help him think.

He recalled and calculated every step of the alchemist Eric making the potion. Since he has never revealed the information that he is a mage, he was able to watch the whole situation of the alchemist's work without being suspected: how he prepares materials, how to mix, how to control temperature, and how to make medicine. Eric is equipped with a slow-acting magic effect inducer, which can take effect after a period of standing. The function is to release the energy in magic items and magic materials. This kind of potion is often used in the analysis of ancient runes or magic circles, which can make hidden magic appear, and play a good catalytic and auxiliary role.

Using this potion may lead to the energy in the flame soul crystal, thereby deceiving the magic detection enchantment, making it think that there is an unauthorized spell casting situation, so as to mobilize the guarding force of the city to cover the real action. There are few materials that can meet this condition, only some kinds of crystal stone and amber. But in Macabuda, there are a lot of loot shipped from the south, as well as finished gems looted by the orcs from the dwarven mines. Materials that meet the conditions can always be found. Why do you have to use flame soul crystals?

And the most crucial question is, what is the relationship between Eric and Knox, and where did he get the Flame Soul Crystal?

Siegel just felt that the road ahead was confusing and there was no way to control it. He doesn't have a trusted friend by his side, let alone a companion who can entrust his life. When there were Dwarf Erinte, Elf Leia and Highlander Dio, the feeling of adventure was completely different from now. Even if he has mastered more magic, his strength and skills have improved a lot from that time, but he is always constrained and looking ahead.

Count Maxime and the mage are not on the right track at all, and it is difficult to fight alongside him; the female archer Mana is like a jerk, the Count does whatever he says, without any opinion; Tim's ability to cause trouble is higher than his ability to do good deeds Too many, only the prestige of the earl can completely overwhelm him, so that he can barely make mistakes in carrying out the order; the gnome walked into the orc city without a word after getting the potion, disappeared into the chaotic streets and alleys, went to Hide the shards of flame soul crystals that disturb your vision in a hidden place.

As for Eric, the one Siegel can't see through is the alchemist Eric. From the point of view of his alchemy techniques and the craftsmanship of preparing potions, Siegel must be a spell caster, not a simple alchemist as he claims. If you shaved his head, painted the swirl logo, and put a wand in his hand, he would be a true Union sorcerer.

There is a Mages Association in Waterdeep City, and it is impossible to let the Knox Association Wizards participate in the operation, so is this Eric an enemy or a friend? Judging from past experience, Siegel believes that he should be counted as an enemy, because what the Knox Commons has done recently is more like pure killing and chaos than working for the victory of mankind.

Siegel would think of every member of the Commonwealth he met, the first time at the kobold camp, the sorcerer who tried to kill and **** horses; later the pathfinder he met in Creekwood, looking for rubies everywhere— Siegel suddenly thought that the red gem that was handed over to "Pi Duck" Ding Bao at that time might also be a flame soul crystal? It's a pity that Siegel didn't know magic at the time, and he didn't have the knowledge to distinguish magic materials, so it was difficult to determine the type of the ruby.

Later, Longshiya met the three sorcerers of the Common Society, and for the first time learned that they possessed spells to modify memory, spells to create puppets, and magic circles of skeletons suspended in the air. That magic circle and the cloud of resentful spirits that rose over Bacon Town belonged to the same sect. The only difference was the scale of the gathering and the way it erupted.

It's true that the Knox Commons are also killing orcs, but Siegel and they are not the same after all. Perhaps Eric's approach would work as intended, completely destroying all the docks, but Siegel couldn't pin all his hopes on him.

Originally, Siegel was about to give up his actions in Maccabuda, but he only accidentally discovered Feizak's true identity, which made him stay again, but it got him into even more trouble. Siegel felt like a ship in a whirlpool, and even if he tried hard, he couldn't overcome the attraction and break free. 'What happened around me was not normal. ' Siegel's eyes flickered after the smoke, and he began to connect things that had happened since he went north, feeling as if there was a force that was constantly preventing him from going south, and he must be allowed to come to Makabuda.

Even the fact that he appeared in the volcano prison was strange. Siegel prides himself on being physically and magically gifted, but passing through the entire city wall and mountain range through the dark river without dying is beyond the reach of ordinary people. The inmate in the same cell happened to have a strong ability to survive in the wild, allowing him to survive on the snow field, and the village he was in happened to be managed by humans, and he would not be sold as a slave again; when the Bacon Town was in danger , there will be a "Shadow of the Dead" to guide him through the crisis, and also open up the new ability of the dice; relying on the new ability, he entered Macabda, and then fell into the current situation.

Siegel aspires to be a hero. His favorite thing in Ximu Town is to listen to the stories of those heroes. Demon Sword Prince Ilmin, Dragon Knight Fidan, Legendary Monk Regula, their stories are full of struggle, sacrifice, never give up spirit, and of course luck that is hard for ordinary people to reach. Whether it is the New World or the Old World, people believe that there is a God of Destiny, who is responsible for writing the path of each person's life, revealing the secrets of the future with the trajectories of the stars, and the heroes of the mortal world are his darlings. Once upon a time, Siegel had always admired those heroes who could play an important role in the constant saga, but never thought about how much suffering and pressure to go through on the road to becoming a hero. He also wanted his name to be passed down to the world and remembered by future generations, such as the legendary mage Siegel, or the heroic knight Siegel.

But never Siegel the Muppet.

The **** of fate in the dark places him in danger again and again, and uses miracles to bring him to the current stage. What is the purpose? Can you bear the burden of fate, and can you break free from the preset script?

Siegel looked up at the horizon, and the sun finally rose from behind the dark clouds, emitting a dazzling light. Even the wickedly depraved orc city of Makabuda has bright and spectacular sunrises. He could hear the sound of waking up from downstairs, the "Alchemist" began to play with his bottles again, Mana and Tim were exercising, and the one-eyed Faizac was serving breakfast to the Earl. According to their plan, the potion will play its full role after nightfall, and the entire city will fall into chaos. At that time, the alchemist can "catalyze the purgatory mycelium and let the fire element come to the shipyard". Siegel didn't believe his words at all~www.novelmt.com~ He only had one day to find out the truth and respond.

Feizak knocked on the door of Siegel's room, but the mage ignored him. He snuffed out his pipe, jumped over from the second-story windowsill, and walked lightly into the alleys of the city. The magic pet, who hadn't flapped its wings for a long time, followed, circled three times in the air, and stopped on the shoulders of the master, rubbing his head affectionately. Siegel made it quiet because he needed quiet thinking. For the mage, the first thing is to figure out what effect the flame soul crystal catalyzed by the magic effect inducer will have.

Siegel walked in a corner where no one was paying attention, and recalled all the ingredients and production methods of the potion in his mind. He intercepted some of the materials when he gave it to the alchemist, and now he needs to find a secluded place to reconfigure the potion, but it will be a quick-acting version. He has been thinking about where to make the appearance of magical fluctuations less conspicuous? Magic items sometimes appear on the auction floor, and the shaman may pay little attention to the energy fluctuations that appear there, but the auction floor is always bustling, and there is no secluded place to be found.

He suddenly had an epiphany and thought of a possible safe place. Macabuda had an arena where the orcs would have their slaves perform gladiatorial fights, either with each other or with beasts. Sometimes they make the slaves drink violent potions to enhance the viewing experience of battles, and these potions emit magical energy that can cover Siegel's magic.

The gladiator's rest area is secluded enough, the slave owners are hostile to each other, and they will be careful to guard against, no one will easily enter other people's preparation area, this is exactly what Siegel needs~www.novelmt.com~ Welcome to the book Friends come to read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in ~www.novelmt.com~ mobile phone users, please go to read.
