To judge the strength of a spellcaster, casting speed is undoubtedly a very important indicator.

Fang Yi did the "Shadow Road" mission during the internal test, and used a similar spell when he rescued the female mage in the desert. Fang Yi also felt that the npc girl cast spells too fast.But now comparing the two, no matter the length of the spell or the casting time, the female mage is much slower than the old man in front of her.

As soon as the old man in front of him finished speaking, the air behind the two immediately began to twist irregularly, as if a wall of water was twisting and twisting with its own will, and the scenery on the other side of the force wall immediately became somewhat blurred.

The drow sword master's sword energy arrived in the blink of an eye, and slashed hard on the wall of force, making a dull sound like a broken leather, shaking the entire wall of force, as if it could knock the wall of force at any time Split in general!

But until Fang Yi and the old man disappeared into the portal, the transparent wall still stood there, and the light and shadow flickered like a wall of flowing water.The last scene in Fang Yi's field of vision is the ferocious-faced Kedrav who jumps high and jumps over the force wall, and the transparent steel golem in the distance that gradually changes in stature.

……

The transfer time is short.

Just like stepping through an ordinary door, Fang Yi's eyes flickered and he found himself in a private house.

"Sit down, adventurer,"

The old man helped Fang Yi to the chair, immediately took out a glass bottle filled with white liquid from his arms, and handed it to Fang Yi, "Drink it!"

Fang Yi took the glass bottle, and the properties of the potion immediately appeared in front of Fang Yi.

"Advanced Holy Water (1 Dose)

Use: Instantly restores 15% of health.It can effectively suppress the bleeding effect and increase the character's ability to resist the stun effect caused by dying. "

Fang Yi saw it without saying a word.Immediately raised his head and got used to the whole bottle of holy water, and immediately felt a heat flow from his body. While his life soared, the red alarm that kept flashing in front of him slowly disappeared without a trace.

This old man is rich, why is the value of this bottle of high-grade holy water more than 1000 gold coins, and players can't make it, only npc can do it.

Fang Yi quickly took out the bandage from the backpack, while bandaging the wound on his chest.While thanking the old man: "Thank you very much this time, otherwise it would be a disaster..."

"Hehe, don't be too busy thanking me, you will have plenty of opportunities in the future,"

The old man looked at Fang Yi and said something meaningful, then turned around and walked to the other side of the room, and took down the kettle that was buzzing from the fireplace.It seems that he wants to make tea for Fang Yi.

Until this time, Fang Yi had time to look at the situation in the room.

Judging from the sound of walking on the floor just now, it should be upstairs.There are a few wooden chairs that look old in the room, and there is a desk near the window, with some papers with words and pictures scattered on it.

The curtains covered the windows tightly, and Fang Yi couldn't see what was going on outside.However, he could vaguely hear the noise coming from the window, which seemed to be near the street.

Looking around the room, Fang Yi turned his attention to the busy old man a few steps away.

At the critical moment, in this city in the underdark region, an old human mage suddenly appeared and rescued himself...

No matter how you think about it, it feels weird.

The overall environment in the Underdark is cold and damp.Therefore, the fireplaces of most of the houses in the city are lit all year round.The ready-made boiling water quickly boiled the tea leaves, and the aroma of hot tea had already permeated the room.It makes people feel refreshed.

After brewing two cups of steaming fragrant tea, the old man walked over and handed a cup to Fang Yi, and said with a smile: "Kedrav's mind is full of stupid ideas, but his skills are among the best in Menzoberranzan. You are too reckless, young man."

Fang Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking how do I know that the martial art chief in the main city of Drow would come to the Furnace of Our Lady...

But Fang Yi didn't talk back ignorantly, but nodded with a teachable expression, "Indeed, his strength is much higher than mine... But old man, I don't know your name yet?"

"Oh~ just call me Keben,"

The old man smiled kindly, tapped his forehead lightly with a short wooden stick, and said with a self-deprecating expression: "It's just a nameless person living in the dark area."

After hearing this, Fang Yi couldn't help curling his lips in his heart, saying to himself that you still know that this is a dark area, why do I feel like this is your back garden?

As the wound on his chest healed quickly, Fang Yi slowly felt the strength return to his body, the dizziness similar to excessive blood loss had almost disappeared, and his brain turned again.

The old mage in front of him is probably not weaker than Kedrav, so did he just pass by to save himself, or did he do it on purpose?Does this mage who calls himself Kaiben have anything to do with the Sarouin incident?

Thinking about these questions, Fang Yi thought about how to ask, but before Fang Yi could speak, the old man spoke first.

"Young man, don't worry, Kedrav won't be able to catch up here, so you can recuperate at ease. But...can you show me your necklace?"

"what?"

Fang Yi was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. He probed out and pulled out the pendant on his chest from the leather armor, then looked up at Kaiben suspiciously.

Fang Yi is now wearing two necklaces, one is the orange outfit "Bloodfiend's Embrace" contributed by the final boss of the Cheshui Forest, and the other is the "Saruin's Memento" that he got from the shapeshifter by accident.

Of course, the latter is just a purely decorative item, because Fang Yi especially likes this delicate work of art that can't help but move his heart.

The "necklace" Keben mentioned is obviously not Gorefiend's Embrace.

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yi took off Saruin's souvenir and handed it to Kaiben, while he stared intently at the other person's expression.

Kaiben put down his teacup and solemnly took the necklace.Then he narrowed his eyes slightly, a brilliance flashed in his brown eyes, and his old fingers gently touched the small and exquisite hammer on the pendant.

Watching this scene, Fang Yi's heart was moved, and he thought that he had met Saruin's good friend?

Fang Yi showed this necklace to Shar and Gelbo. They both felt that some kind of magic was attached to the necklace, and they couldn't see any harm, let alone any use. Keben left track magic on it...

How else would he know that the necklace was on his neck?

"Ugh……"

Kelben sighed unobtrusively, his eyes stayed on the pendant, and he said after a long time, "Young man, don't tell me that you found this necklace in the hands of the mind flayer."

Fang Yi blinked, and said, "Uh...not a mind flayer, but...a shapeshifter,"

Hearing Fang Yi's words, Kaiben suddenly said: "Ah... yes, you should be the mind flayer you met in the mithril vein, so those octopus heads controlled the shapeshifter?"

"Not bad at all,"

Fang Yi nodded, couldn't help admiring Kaiben's quick response, but still said a little depressed: "My disguise is so bad? Why does it seem that everyone who sees me knows who I am? ?”

"Haha~ young man, what does this have to do with disguise?"

Kaiben shook his head and smiled, and said: "Not many people in this dark region know what the mithril lord looks like, and you used the disguise technique, how many people can recognize you? It's just your two The pet is too famous, you don’t need to recognize the person, just look at the dog, that’s enough.”

"..."

Fang Yi curled his lips, but he had to admit that Kaiben was right. Now that he was out, Ji Feng and Supreme Treasure were indeed more conspicuous than Fang Yi himself.

"By the way, you know Mr. Sarouin?"

Fang Yi took a sip of hot tea, not forgetting the business, and asked curiously while feeling the warm tea warming his cold stomach.

Hearing Fang Yi's question, Kaiben sighed softly again, refilled Fang Yi's glass with some hot water, then turned around and sat back on the chair next to the fireplace, staring at the orange flames jumping in the fireplace, leisurely Said: "We are old friends, young people, very old friends..."

……

Sarouin was not a native of the Hearth of Our Lady, but was born in the city of Blingdenstone in the upper Underdark region, and came to the Hearth of Our Lady after the city was captured by the dark elves.

Saruin is a natural blacksmith, and the talent of the gray dwarves is fully displayed in him. He has advanced to the level of a master blacksmith when he was more than 200 years old, and became the first grand master of the journey of the Virgin before the age of [-] level blacksmith.

The friendship between Keben and the old dwarf began when Saruin first came to the Hearth of the Lady, and at that time Keben was already a mage who liked to travel around.After rescuing Saruin from a pack of hungry velociraptors, the two wanderers in the Underdark for different reasons became best friends.

As we all know, Saruin is famous for his superb blacksmithing skills, but only Kaiben knows that in the heart of this optimistic dwarf, he always dreams of returning to his hometown, the peaceful city that only belongs to dwarves and blacksmiths— —Blingdenstone.

However, Saruin is not a warrior, nor does he have the talent to become a magician. Even if he is as strong as an archmage like Keben, he cannot restore the glory of Blingdenstone City by himself.

However, fate also seemed to take pity on this old dwarf who was eager to go home. During a field prospecting, Saruin accidentally discovered an amazing relic. After confirming the relics and historical information hidden inside, Saruin Because of ecstatic joy.

"Saruin wrote to me at the time and told me that he had discovered some secrets about the history of Menzoberranzan,"

Kaiben narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Fang Yi, with a trace of sadness in his eyes, "It was those things that killed him."
