The large amounts of holy water smoke and splashing water droplets caused these corpses to quickly lose their source of life support. Loren carried Claire on his back and jumped on the roof towards the house with the strongest negative energy. On the way, he asked: "Why not let them go together?"
"The corpse-eating ghosts can also use the violent charm and control humans. If they can't pass the harmony test, they will definitely not be immune to the violent charm. How about the two of us."
After describing the reasons for the battle, Claire whispered: "The corpse-corrupting ghost may drop a lower-level substitute for the soul prism, soul dust, which is an important research and spell-casting material."
"Are you sure? Don't get yourself involved because of greed for money."
The half-elf girl reminded the mage lady. She raised her head and patted her chest and almost fell down: "Oh no... don't worry, it can definitely be solved. It only uses charm spells. I'm not afraid. I'll give you a solution when the time comes." Just magic.”
Only charm-type spells?Then Lorenno was no longer worried. What she was least afraid of was mind control spells. Lorenno, who was strong-willed, was difficult to control. Even if she was controlled, her sister could just control her body directly.
Dodging the zombie ranger's shooting and pursuit, the two quickly arrived near the house with the largest and strongest negative energy in the village. The half-elf stepped on the wall with both feet and jumped over the guardrail. He did not go through the closed main door, which was slightly damaged by punches. The window broke directly into it and landed in a house that could be called a small manor. Claire quickly blessed herself with mage armor and shielding skills. Lorenno knelt down close to her and tried to sense the location of the corpse-eating ghost. Several corpse puppets came out of the darkness and interrupted her search.
"Is this... a corpse puppet with a strong physique?"
Lorenno looked at these heavily armored warriors with a clear face. She asked why she didn't see warriors with heavy armor and high physical fitness. They were waiting here.
"Claire, protect yourself."
With a warning, Lorenno drew his sword and walked straight away.
Chapter 80 Harvest
Lorenno shuttled between the heavily armored warriors and easily avoided the stiff attacks, but he was helpless against these heavily armored zombies. The gaps in the armor were not enough for a long sword to penetrate into them. After trying a few times, he directly picked up a side of the iron armor. The candlestick violently bombards the brains of zombies. Their soul fire is usually hidden in the fatal places during life. It is also effective to use blunt objects to disperse the soul fire! !
While fighting, Claire also cast the Grease spell and sprinkled it at their feet. Lorenno showed no sign of falling as if skating on the grease, but the zombies fell down one after another. However, as soon as she cast the spell, all the zombies ignored the attack. Lorenno stared at the mage with ferocious eyes from his helmet.
Obviously, the Corrupting Ghost also knows to kill the mage first in a fight.
The corpse puppets started to flutter on the grease with their hands and feet, and slowly left the range of the greasy ground. It took a long time for the half-elf girl to smash one to death. When she saw the corpse puppet that was about to climb out of the grease range, she jumped over and kicked it back far away. , while kicking, he asked Claire: "Claire, do you know sharpness?"
"I haven't learned yet," Claire frowned and said, "Lorenno, put them in a line, I want to use the lightning beam."
The three most effective ways to deal with negative energy creatures are thunder and lightning, positive energy (holy) and fire, especially those wearing iron armor. The mage took out the fur and glass rods and put them in his hands and recited the spell, and as the materials decomposed, electric currents Wrapping it around his hands, he made large movements to guide the energy and began to construct the spell.
Lorenno used his hands and feet to kick or throw the corpse puppets in a row. Claire, who had prepared the spell, hung her right hand by her side. The majestic thunder and lightning gathered in her palm. As she waved her little hand upward, the powerful lightning instantly penetrated the row of corpse puppets. ! !
The zombies trembled, and all collapsed to the ground after the soul fire was extinguished. Claire put down her hand and walked towards Lorenno. The half-elf girl looked behind her and suddenly shouted: "Watch the back!"
The mage turned back, his mouth wide open, and the rotten and fluorescent ghost rushed towards her. Claire held her breath, and the teleportation spell on the crystal was ready. As long as she was touched, she could immediately move behind Lorenno.
However, there was no chance for this move to be used. A dark shadow that had been waiting for a long time jumped down from a high place. It was the halfling Jerry!
After seeing the tragic situation of his companions, Jerry had no time to grieve. After hiding out from the village chief's house, he was constantly hunted by the zombies. In the end, he relied on his luck and stealth skills to escape the pursuit and sneaked into the manor to try. He found the ghost and reported it to the insurance group who came with him in order to avenge his companions. However, once he entered the manor, he could not find the way out (ghost breaks the wall), so he had to lurk here, hoping that Kolpa would not Will eat those things.
Fortunately, the halflings were very lucky. Although they did not wait for Kolpa, they waited for Lorenno and the other two. He did not appear rashly but waited for the most dangerous time to take action, such as now!
The halfling Jerry screamed strangely and stabbed the ghost's head with a dagger. The ghost screamed in pain and threw away the halfling Jerry. This time was enough for Claire to take action.
"Huseho!!"
Claire quickly made a gesture and used the thunder wave to push the ghost away from her under the influence of the stench of negative energy. Lorenno crossed the mage, grasped the sacred sword and rotated his body, relying on inertia to slash at the ghost.
Ah ah ah ah ah------
The ghost let out a piercing scream, but the sword failed to kill it. It stared at the half-elf with wide red eyes and launched a violent charm spell. Lorenno didn't even hide. As the ray hit her, the girl's My head only hurt slightly and I came back to my senses.
A sword strike left dazzling sword marks on the ghost's body. It wailed and tried to escape. The halfling waved his weapon and shouted: "You ghost, where are you running? Eat my sword!!"
In the distance, Claire also began to attack the ghost with magic missiles. Under the three-party attack, the ghost, which had no attack means, spit out negative energy toxins before it died. He tried to take away the halflings, but he quickly dodged them. It whined and began to fly away into light spots. Miss Mage rushed to it with quick eyes and hands to collect the soul dust.
"Huh - who are you two?"
After dealing with the ghost, Jerry collapsed on the ground. After listening to Lorenno's explanation, he sighed: "Goddess of luck, thank you for your blessing. Oh, and of course, thank you both."
[Arnold, there is something similar to Sunny’s sword here, go and have a look. 】
"You rest here first, and I'll go see if there's anything good."
"Oh, no, we've already checked it out."
She didn't listen to Jerry's advice. She was not looking for good things in the first place. She followed her sister and started to go deep into the manor. She kicked open the walls to find the secret room inside and entered it.
This is a torture chamber. Many rusty torture tools are placed here. A white skeleton is paralyzed in the torture chamber. The magic aura on it is gradually dissipating. It must be the skeleton of a ghost.
With the breeze brought by the opening of the door, the bones that had lost the protection of their magical aura turned into powder and dissipated. The half-elf girl leaned over and touched the bone powder, which had no effect. After searching carefully, she saw a corner of a... strangely patterned brick in the powder pile.
Lorenno stretched out his hand to grab the brick, and suddenly his vision went dark...
When Lorenno opened his eyes again, what came into his eyes was a prisoner tied to an interrogation chair, his face blurred.
"You...don't tell me..."
"I advise you..."
Is my identity this time an interrogator?
Lorenno was thinking, and the footage flashed in front of his eyes. The next moment, the prisoner punched the interrogator in the heart and killed him instantly. Then he walked out of the room. At the end of his life, the half-elf girl saw the "inquisitor's" clothes, which were gorgeous. And covered in blood, he must be a noble.
Then the scene changed. The killed noble was sitting in front of the mirror. His face was very clear, but the maids and servants serving him around him could not be seen clearly. The voice of a person who bowed his head in front of him and seemed to be a courtier was broken. : "Imperial people... spies... ancient city..."
"Use...the devil...to block..."
As the memory moved forward, Lorenno gradually understood the life of this nobleman. He was a missionary before the establishment of the empire, that is, more than 200 years ago. His name was Soder, a nobleman of a certain kingdom, the predecessor of this village. It's his territory.
According to the direction, the ancient city is located on the edge of the current Lakeside City. The half-elf will naturally think of the excavated ancient city. Judging from the time when this side is haunted and that side was excavated, it is precisely because that side was excavated. , Sood's long-lasting resentment here will be reunited.
He spent his whole life running for his kingdom. The kingdom did not turn into ruins before his death. The half-elf girl also guessed the cause of the destruction through clues.
It was not the empire's hand, they would not destroy a city, but the people in power in this country tried to use the power of the devil to turn defeat into victory, and instead allowed their own city to be destroyed.
Through his memory, Lorenno's biggest gain is naturally the map of the ruins and his swordsmanship. After he goes back to find out when the ancient country was destroyed, he can know whether the map is accurate.
Chapter 81 Changes in the First Level of Hell in the Past Hundred Years
Walking out of the hidden prison, Claire shook the small glass bottle in her hand at Lorenno. The sparkling silver dust inside was very eye-catching.
Jerry, the halfling, rubbed his shoulders and bowed to Lorenno, who was about the same height as him: "Thank you so much, Miss Ranger. If it weren't for you, I might have died here."
"Adventurers should help each other when fighting monsters outside."
The three of them walked out of the manor and looked at the corpses of Jerry and Claire that were starting to rot on the ground. They couldn't bear it. The half-elf girl stepped over the corpses and waved to the unknown adventure group that was approaching.
Kolpa and others suffered a lot of injuries, and some even lost an arm. Fortunately, they did not reduce their numbers. When they saw Jerry Kolpa, he hugged him like an old friend, pulled him aside and started talking, Lorenno Being able to hear is related to joining their adventure group.
After they finished talking, Jerry, Claire, Lorenno and the nameless adventure group worked together to dig a pit and pile all the corpses together. Lorenno specially used the sacred sword to cut through the corpses one by one and clear them out. Negative Energy.
Logically speaking, these corpses need to be cremated, but if a village disappears the empire must inspect them, so they cannot be burned for the time being.
Everyone drove away from this land of right and wrong and rebuilt the camp. After experiencing life and death, everyone obviously had some friendships. Everyone except Claire sat in front of the fire——
She doesn't like to appear in public. According to her, wizards should remain mysterious. Only Claire knows her true face, and the fewer people remember her, the better. Her face has always been covered by a mask, but there is no guarantee that someone will tell her from her body shape and posture. It is good for everyone to recognize the problem as a habit and minimize contact with others.
After all, not everyone has the same hatred towards the Federation and the Principality of Greyhawk like Lorenno.
"Come! Let us pay homage to the fallen cat and mouse with this cup.
The adventure group and other adventurous groups who have opened the way, may they ascend to the kingdom of the gods they believe in! "
Taking out the kettle and clinking it, no one was drinking in the wild. They just used water instead of wine to toast the dead adventurers and villagers. After drinking, Kolpa looked at Lorenno with fiery eyes: "I wonder if Miss Lorenno would like to join us. Adventure group?"
"Sorry, this is unnecessary," the half-elf girl refused directly, "My ultimate goal is the capital city of Dovlai."
"It's such a pity." The captain couldn't help but sigh.
In his sleep, Lorenno once again dreamed of the memory of the noble Sod who had spied on him before.
This stubble-faced man walked in the capital of the kingdom where people were panicking, and reported important orders to the king. The figure on the throne looked slightly sad: "Sir Soder, it is impossible for us to resist the rising star. Celebrity."
The ministers looked at each other, and a mage came out and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, there is still a way, it depends on whether you have the determination."
"Oh? What is it!"
The king leaned forward and looked at the mage, his eyes full of hope. The mage said slightly gloomily: "Why not borrow power from the devil?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar, and soon the audience was divided into two groups. There were many more nobles who wanted to use the devil's power to repel the imperial army than those who thought it was impossible. Thord was also the one who agreed with this plan, and after deciding After the general movement, the noble asked: "I wonder which devil is willing to help us."
"The Grand Duchess of Avernus, Zariel, was defeated by Bayer and needs more souls to restore her strength..."
After the discussion ended, Sood and the king walked in the palace. The king, who could not see his face clearly, sighed: "I don't know if I can stop the empire's attack..."
Sood was silent and followed the king through the library, training ground, and back garden. Finally, he knelt on one knee before leaving: "I am willing to live or die with the kingdom. Your Majesty, I believe that the sword masters of our country will definitely give them a fatal blow." .”
This is his most important memory. As the scene collapses, Sood as a child begins to wield a long sword and practice elegant aristocratic swordsmanship.
……
Lorenno, who had difficulty breathing with Claire's neck tightened, opened his eyes, quietly got out of her arms, and leaned against the wall of the carriage to analyze the memories he had recalled. Alice told the half-elf girl that the reason why Bayer The reason for participating in the events in Cardinal City again was for some of the power that was sealed in the Ilmat Temple. Zariel escaped from the trap and once again challenged Bair for the position of the Devil's Grand Duke, which coincided with what happened in the Nameless Kingdom.
At dawn, Lorenno, who couldn't sleep, got up and went outside. He picked up a long sword and started to use the swordsmanship gained from the memory. Jerry and Kevin also got up early and were exercising themselves. When everyone got up and went together, Go to Lakeside City.
"Have you ever been to that underground ruins? What kind of ruins are they?" Lorenno asked on the way.
"According to the empire personnel, it was a kingdom that was destroyed by the devil," Jerry's words confirmed her guess. "This kingdom was originally an opponent of the empire. They tried to use the power of the devil to reverse the war, but they were deceived and the entire country's capital was destroyed by the devil. It is completely buried underground, and the Empire has only recently opened a way to get there, and I heard from those who have gone down there that besides underground creatures, there are also a lot of devils underground."
"Won't Lakeside City be affected?"
"During the time when it first started, there were a lot of resentful spirits. They were nobles from that country far away from the capital. The one we met is probably one of them. We don't know why they woke up when the capital came out."
Claire heard the adventurer's doubts and closed the book in his hand and said: "Because of obsession and will, although the Devil Archduke only took away the soul of the capital, these nobles who are connected by blood to the king of the kingdom have actually been affected. After death, the nobles' The souls could not return to the River Styx for a long time, and the desire to restore the country haunted them to accumulate strength. Until the capital of the kingdom reappeared, they felt that they reawakened in the form of resentful spirits..."
Everyone could understand the first few sentences, but later Claire unknowingly said a lot of professional terms, which gave the adventurers a headache. Seeing that no one understood, the mage knocked on the pen in his hand and said: "The devil has used evil spells to pollute the ancient country. Everyone, after they die and wait for the capital to appear, they will all turn into evil spirits."
"So that's it~."
The easy-to-understand explanation makes adventurers suddenly understand.
Leaving the completely destroyed village, the carriage moved forward slowly. Soon the two adventurers from afar saw a city wall similar to that of Crystal City. Next to it was the clear and transparent Half Moon Lake. It was really a semicircular structure. On the other side of the lake is the place where the ruins were developed. Lorenno could see vague figures in the distance.
Chapter 82 Lakeside City
Lorenno followed the adventure group forward. Farmers had begun to sow wheat along the way. Compared with the two cities on the edge of the empire, there were significantly more fields near the lakeside city. There were professionals patrolling the wheat fields to prevent monsters. near.
Whether it is farmers being harmed or crops being harmed, this is not what the empire wants to see.
Entering Lake City, she looked up and looked around. Compared with the overall gray Crystal City, the colors here were brighter. Since spring had already begun, some storefronts could already be seen with bright flowers on the streets. Compared to Cardinal City and People here in Crystal City walk more slowly.
"Sister, do you want to buy flowers?"
The clothes have been beaten a lot
The girl, who was patched but very clean, was holding a flower basket covered with flowers picked from the wild and trotted after the carriage. There was one on each side of Kolpa and others. Seeing that they took the flower basket before paying readily, Lorenno asked. :"How much?"
The girl asked knowingly: "Are you a foreigner? Each flower basket costs ten copper plates. If you need a local introduction manual, add one more gold coin. Of course, you can also let me show you around. In this case, the total is eleven gold coins and one copper plate. "
"……it is good."
Lorenno took the flower basket and handed it to Claire. He took out the gold coins and copper plates from the bag and handed them to the girl. He grabbed her outstretched hand and led her to the front of the carriage.
"Are you together, all homeless kids?"
After saying hello to Kolpa and parting ways, Lorenno asked the girl if she was with other children.
"Yes, we all work for the empire, and these things are assigned to us by the empire." The girl was not too sad about being homeless, and was very proud when she talked about working for the empire.
Claire behind the carriage fell into deep thought after hearing this. The same goes for the orphans in Crystal City. The children will do some work such as cleaning up the stones brought back by the workers on the street. What will their hometown be like?
Connie Aquila, who had never left the royal city since she was born, subconsciously began to observe the empire's patterns from this moment on, accumulating experience for when she would sit on the throne in the future.
The half-elf girl who knew nothing about this followed the flower girl's guidance and came to a tavern. The singing of a bard came from inside. The girl pointed to the tavern and said: "This is a place for adventurers to communicate. , you can try to find an adventure group here, or find long-term teammates, do you want to go in and have a look."
The dispatch office is only for handing over tasks, and this tavern is equivalent to recruiting team members. (ps: draw cards)
Lorenno said: "No hurry, is there any other place?"
"Have."
The girl took Lorenno through the streets and alleys, getting to know everything about Lakeside City. When she passed a thatched hut, she didn't ask the half-elf to stop. After passing by, she whispered quietly: "Did you see that thatched hut? There It is where the Thieves Guild is located, where you can buy information and take on some tasks that are not accepted by the dispatch office, and sometimes sell stolen goods. Of course, you must remember to disguise yourself before entering."
Lorenno was greatly surprised: "You know all this?"
The girl scratched her head and felt a little embarrassed: "My friend asked me to help promote it. I asked my brothers in the empire and they said it wouldn't be a problem, so I'm pretty much working two jobs."
Approaching the hotel recommended by the girl, Lorenno put her down and asked the last question: "Little guy, do you know anyone who has come to the city recently?"
"Ma'am, that's too much. Let's talk about temple personnel first. More than ten temples have sent people, devil believers and cults have all sent people. The Federation has also intervened to prevent similar problems. What about the adventurers? Everybody has it.”
After saying that, the girl saluted and ran excitedly towards the back door of the imperial mission office nearby. Lorenno looked back and got out of the car with Claire. They went to the horse farm not far from the hotel to board the pack horses and store the carriage. When they returned to the hotel, they paid half a month's rent first. Accommodation fee.
"Lorenno, when are we going to the ruins?"
