through the dark road

Chapter 173 The Staff of Horadric
Norman, the small guard commander of Lugaoin City, finally got rid of the depressed mood of the past two months, feeling a little elated.

Since he took over the task of investigating the disappearance of residents, it has been fruitless.It made him and the several teams under him a little bit embarrassed.

But at noon today, he was given a new task. Together with several other brigades, he hunted down several squads of job-changers who had been very active recently and might have defected inside and outside the city.

Their team was like a miracle, and first arrested the eight people who were co-playing the oboe in the tavern and wantonly inciting hatred.Then, following the witness clues, another team was blocked at the southern teleportation station.It only took one afternoon to capture nearly half of the targets.It can be said that he has taken the lead in this operation.

What made Norman and others even more overjoyed was that one of the teams was actually related to the disappearance case.The ridiculous thing is that this team was not instructed to participate in separatist activities, but the dog-legged soul was lonely, and when he saw an opportunity to do things, he began to cooperate actively. The high level of awareness is simply amazing.

The guards and some of the job changers involved in the operation tried not to make too much noise, but a large number of teams came and went, and the atmosphere in Lu Gaoyin City still seemed a little tense on this day.

These did not affect the mood of the three of Mo Bei wandering in the street. They had already done what they could do, and they couldn't mix everything up.Mo Bei even has a detached mentality that hides his merit and fame deeply.

Perona was holding a bag of ghee fruit, and her mouth hadn't stopped all afternoon.The belt around the waist has also been loosened twice, and now it looks bulging.

Her appetite has always been not small, but there is no sign of continued growth anywhere in her body, which makes Mo Bei very puzzled. At this moment, seeing her small stomach that is propped up, he couldn't help but say:
"You can grow your heart, don't just grow your waistline at the end."

"Huh? What snacks?" Perona asked, looking up.

"...It's nothing, let's eat yours..." Mo Bei replied angrily, looked at the surrounding streets, but his eyes lit up, and he continued:

"It's not far from the Mage Guild here. Let's go to the Mage Guild to see if Elder Kane is back. Maybe he knows some ways to improve the efficiency of using blocks!"

The more he talked about it, the more likely he felt that the possibility was greater. The energy consumption of the Horadric Cube was so terrible that it was simply unbearable. He suspected that this might be a problem with the way they used it.

And Kane is the only remaining Horadrim, he must have a certain understanding of this artifact, and he will probably know the correct way to use it.

Really as witty as I am.Mo Bei snapped his fingers, and left as soon as he said, the three of them quickened their pace, turned around a few streets, and arrived at the gate of the Masters Guild when the sun was westward.

After inquiring about it, and knowing that Kane was really here, Mo Bei excitedly followed the guidance of the enthusiastic old man, found a magic laboratory, and saw two old men with a slightly stooped figure gathered in front of a table .

One of them was Kane in a gray robe. That gray robe seemed to be much cleaner than the previous one, and the style was slightly different.

But the old man next to him was not Drognan, he was wearing a brown fur coat with a fur top next to his body, and a coarse cloth jacket underneath, which was really unusual for Lu Gaoyin in the hot climate, and He also wears a red nightcap, which looks weird.

"I said Lysander, why does your potion smell worse than the slime of sandworms." Kane couldn't help but waved his sleeves, but still stared intently at a long strip sink on the table.

"Without strong medicinal properties, how can I get rid of these old filth. Although the smell of carrion moss is a bit strange, its decomposition ability is second to none." The strange old man didn't seem to feel the smell of the bubbling sink in front of him at all. It smelled bad, and there was even a bit of a happy expression on his face. .

Kane noticed that someone was outside the door, raised his head, and saw the three of Mo Bei holding their noses standing about a foot away from the door, looking hesitant, he looked down at the sink in front of him again, and gave a wry smile , out of the laboratory.

"Hehe, the smell here is not very good, why don't you go to the study and wait for a while, I will come soon."

"Elder Kane, we found this." Mo Bei seemed impatient, and proudly took out the Horadric Cube, shaking it in front of Kane.

Kane was taken aback when he saw the square, then patted his forehead, and turned back to the laboratory, leaving Mo Bei and the others to look at each other.

But when he met the weird look in the old man Lei Shande's eyes, he suddenly realized something, turned his head suddenly, and made a muffled "click", almost shaking his old waist.

"This... no... not an illusion..." Kane stared at the Horadric Cube in Mo Bei's hand, a little incoherent.

Mo Bei directly put the cube in his hand, and the real touch completely brought Kane back to his senses, his eyes gradually changed from confused to radiant.

"The Horadric Cube. It's really the Horadric Cube. You... where did you find it?"

"It's the labyrinth under the dry highland." Mo Bei waved his hand, his tone relaxed and freehand, completely forgetting how he managed to lower his intelligence in the process of searching.

"Unbelievable...you really make me feel incredible..." Kane stared at the three of them for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and said to Lysander who was also looking at the legendary artifact:
"Quick, take out the handle, I think we can fix it directly."

Kane walked to the sink and looked around for tools to fish things out of the potion.

"Why is that clip missing?"

"What do you want a clip for? Aren't you a mage?" Lei Shande curled his lips.

Only then did Kane wake up like a dream, and use telekinesis to suspend a long stick in the potion above the liquid surface, dripping down the black liquid medicine.

"Is there something to wipe off your broken potion?"

"Bro... Potion of Potion!?" As a fanatical pharmacist, Lei Sander quit on the spot. If he was not afraid of being splashed with the potion of Potion in the other party's mouth, he might have rushed up to make Kane look good.

Kane didn't notice his emotional change at all, and all his attention was rummaged in the inventory to find suitable items, which made Leisander feel depressed for a while.

Careful Milo stepped forward, took out a water bag, and slowly started rinsing along the long stick. When the black liquid medicine was almost gone, she took out a cloth and wiped it clean.

Kane gave her another approving look, put the long stick into the cube, put the metal pattern into it, and started to synthesize.

But after he concentrated for a moment, there was no response in the box.

"This cube..."

"The cube should be fine. We tried many times yesterday." Mo Bei answered Kane's question directly.

"Strange, it's clearly recorded in the literature that they were restored to the Horadric staff by oneness..." Kane frowned and pondered, even wondering if there was something wrong with his memory.

"Why don't you let Perona try? She's amazing!" Mo Bei looked proud.

With her round belly, Perona took small square steps and stepped forward to take the Horadric Cube, feeling it. .It seems to be a little drifting. . .

But after some conscious manipulation, there was no response.

"She...maybe she's fed up today..." Mo Bei felt that his proud face was a bit unbearable.

Perona also lowered her head in embarrassment.

"I think... I should have been negligent. These two parts are seriously damaged... Try adding this." Kane took out another rune of number nine and handed it to Perona.

The No. [-] rune Ott, put into the Horadric Cube, can restore all the durability of some weapons that are difficult to repair beyond the craftsman's ability.The eighth rune, Lal, can be used to repair armor.

After putting the runes into the cube, Perona tried again, and the pattern on the cube turned white like it was when it was activated for the first time.

A sound of successful synthesis echoed in the magic laboratory, and Perona handed the cube to Mo Bei, obviously exhausted again.The repair of this item is almost beyond her limit.

Mo Bei was holding the cube in his left hand, and when he flipped it over with his right hand, a straight dark golden long staff appeared. The shape was simple and majestic, but the head of the staff was slightly sharp. It seemed that it could be used as a long-handled weapon.

This staff, which was of great significance to the Horadrim family, reappeared in front of Kane after a long time, but it didn't make him show much excitement.

The main reason why he was so excited just now was because he saw the Horadric Cube.

As for this staff, if it can be repaired, he is naturally very happy, but when he looked at this staff, his gray eyebrows, which were almost an inch long, frowned slightly, and murmured :

"This staff seems to have not been fully restored. The staff of Horadric in the records is much stronger than this..."
