The knight in the abyss

Chapter 625 The Ability of the Artificer
"Ahem, it's really an imposing and impressive self-introduction." Lancelot couldn't help but said, "Please sit back first, the owner of the restaurant has been staring at you nervously since just now... very good, But can you tell us what kind of profession Artificer is? I have never heard of it before..."

"It's not surprising. Artificers seem to be only popular in our world called Eberron, and it's rare to meet colleagues from other worlds." Vollain explained, "It's hard to explain Artifacts clearly in one or two sentences. In our profession, magic is a complex system waiting to be decoded and manipulated. With the right tools, equipment and processes, we can use magic in a predictable and measurable way, change Ordinary items in everyday life that greatly facilitate our lives...or end someone else's."

"To put it simply, we are inventors who have mastered the power of magic... Hiccup." The younger brother Renn on the side said, "Just like mages, artificers also have different professional directions. My brother is an armor specialist, and he The power armor is like your own second skin. The ability of the armor can be adjusted according to the needs, which can not only deal with the enemy in close combat, but also project destructive energy far away."

"And Ren is a magic cannon master. Compared with me, he is an expert in causing damage on the battlefield." Vollain looked at his brother with a proud look, "He can create a magic fort in battle , the shape can be a small self-propelled cannon with mechanical legs, or a miniature hand-held cannon held in the hand. There are three types of fort: a flamethrower, which emits a cone-shaped flame to a range of about fifteen feet in front; The force field ballista has a range of 120 feet. When it hits, it can not only cause damage, but also push the target back; the defender continuously sends life energy to the surrounding friendly targets, which is equivalent to a medical node in battle. It is very useful in army combat. In addition, his heavy crossbow is also injected with energy, which has the characteristics of automatic loading, and it will also be accompanied by destructive magic energy when attacking..."

"Sounds great." Tijana said with great interest, "But there is a problem, the Baatezu you are going to deal with this time is immune to flames, and that kind of fire-breathing turret seems to be useless ..."

"Of course it won't be a problem, beautiful lady." Ren looked at Tijana with a smirk on his face, "With just a few small adjustments, I can change its attack attributes... Acid? Cold? Or lightning? What do you think is more suitable?"

"Acid is good, but I recommend lightning." Tijana shrugged. "On the battlefield, the two sides are always entangled. Tanari is resistant to lightning damage, but Baatezu is not."

"Ah! What a wise suggestion!" Ren immediately took out a small notebook and quickly wrote something on it, "Thank you very much, I have written it down."

"So, there is only one last question left." Lancelot put away the smile on his face, "Do you have any requirements for your companions?"

Hearing that the dwarf brothers looked at each other, they nodded at the same time.

"It's not so much a request, but a request." Vollain stretched out his hand and caught the metal ball that had been floating by his side, "Remember what I just said, to prove that dwarves are no worse than any other race? This The ball is our evidence. It is an activated sentience stone that will always be with us, recording the sound and image of our battle. If neither of us survives the bloody battle this time, please help us Send it to Sigil Senses headquarters..."

"Of course, if we are so useless and crushed by the army of devils like bedbugs on the side of the road, then there is no need." Ren on the side curled his lips, "It is best to destroy it completely to maintain Our glorious image... there are already many records of our previous adventures in the library of the Perception Society, and those are enough."

"Damn it, your requests are all related to death!" Brutal stared dissatisfiedly, "It's really unlucky! Let me tell you, with my elder brother around, it's not so easy to want to die!"

"I don't have superstitions in this area. Only by preparing for the worst can we get the best results." Lancelow shrugged and looked at the half-elf girl sitting opposite the dwarf, "Miss, tell us about yourself yourself."

"Uh... Hello everyone, my name is Tania Irishina, as you can see, I'm a half-elf." The white-haired girl put down the glass, this is the first time she has done this since the dinner began, "But I Knowing nothing about her parents, Aunt Anna said that I was put at her door on a moonless night, along with a small bag of gold coins and a note with my name on it. My childhood and ordinary There is no difference between your human children, but your experience when you grow up is a bit like your story about Lancelot—abnormal climate, bad harvest, famine people... After I led the villagers to open the lord’s full granary, things went very smoothly. It was about to get out of hand. Unrest swept across the country. The heroic peasant army rushed all the way from the south into the capital. The moment he died, a portal leading to Bator's Hell appeared in his body. I rushed in without hesitation, destroyed the magic circle that made the portal, but I couldn't go back because of it...Fortunately Yes, I found another portal in that devil fortress, and the other end of the portal is the famous cage city..."

"Tell us about your suzerain." Tijana grabbed a fruit from the table, her fingertips suddenly stretched out her claws, and she began to peel the skin calmly, "You are a magician, as I said right?"

"...Your senses are very keen, ma'am." The face of the white-haired half-elf changed slightly, "As long as I can remember, there has been a mysterious female voice in my head, she taught me various Knowledge, how to perceive words and colors, how to distinguish directions, and how to use magic. She never made any contract with me, or maybe the contract was made before I was born. In short, I can manipulate the power from the Shadowfall and use it Summon a special contract weapon..."

Tania raised her arm and made a strange gesture. In the next moment, a flame-like shadow sprang out of her hand, and quickly materialized into a black seven-foot halberd.The half-elf easily spun the halberd above everyone's heads, bringing out the sound of howling wind, and then grabbed it fiercely, and the halberd immediately stopped in the air, exuding a palpitating power.

Lancelot felt a black spot on his wrist move, as if he was quite excited because he felt the same kind.

"As you can see, I am a Cursed Swordsman." Tanya stomped the halberd on the ground beside her, strangely without making any sound, and the halberd disappeared, "I can release some enhancements My own magic, but mainly to defeat the enemy through melee combat. There is only one requirement for my partner, and that is not to ask anything about my mentor unless I bring it up myself. Shouldn’t that be too much?”
