Werewolf wizard

Chapter 135: Ogre with Traces of Magical Modification

Su Nan scanned the villagers of Amolod Village. Due to its geographical location, this village was very impoverished, with almost the entire population relying on farming for a living.

The villagers of Amolod Village were also unwilling to abandon it, so they never left.

The villagers here were very conservative, simple, and kind. Even six years ago, when he was at his most difficult, they did not betray him.

If he recruited werewolf warriors here, with a little training, he could select people whose primary emotion was loyalty to him, and that loyalty would be amplified tenfold.

Amolod Village seemed to be a potential werewolf warrior village.

If he had a large number of werewolf warriors, his werewolf troop would be strengthened, and his legion and his combat power ceiling would increase as a result.

Even though his mental power was currently 60, due to the strength of the werewolf troop (including other units incorporated into the wolf pack effect), he could concentrate his magic power and increase his current magic power by more than 15.

The werewolf troop was a prototype of his alternative wizard tower, and it also had the effect of amplifying his magic and assisting his spellcasting.

However, these things could be discussed later.

He still needed to observe the village's level of loyalty to him.

Before Su Nan left, the village chief of Amolod Village and many villagers were still telling Su Nan that they felt somewhat indebted to their lord.

These simple villagers believed that—

Amolod Village had no money at all. Their contribution to the territory was too small. Su Nan had recently exempted them from taxes, but they also wanted to contribute some strength to the territory.

After leaving Amolod Village.

Su Nan temporarily focused his attention on the two one-eyed ogres that Vasiliyan had captured.

He wanted to figure out where they came from.

Whether that underground world was created by some wizards from the mainstream wizard society back then.

According to the Oak Wizard's point of view in his own magic book, the wizard world had come up with all sorts of bizarre methods to deal with the increasingly serious phenomenon of magic tide receding.

Although the most mainstream method was to leave directly, some wizards had come up with various unorthodox methods to deal with the receding magic tide.

For example, the petrification of the petrification witch.

Some wizards also proposed excavating the underground world.

Moreover, Su Nan discovered that these two one-eyed ogres had traces of being magically modified. Although these two one-eyed ogres should have been born naturally, Su Nan could still see traces of residual magic on them.

These ogres should not be primitive ogres.

They had at least undergone relatively large-scale modifications by the underground wizards, which was why they had their current strength.

This meant that in the underground world, there must be the work of that group of wizards from the mainstream wizard society who advocated hiding deep underground and temporarily eking out a living by using the little magic power remaining underground.

It was just unknown whether they created an underground world or used the original underground caverns to transform it into an underground world.

Su Nan smiled at Vasiliyan and said, "Vasiliyan, do you know what the most interesting thing about magic is?"

Vasiliyan bowed to Su Nan and said solemnly, "Your subordinate does not know."

"Your subordinate is ignorant."

Vasiliyan looked at Su Nan with some curiosity. After being scammed by the church for more than sixty years of his life, he had lost interest in many things, so he didn't even want to be human anymore, but he was still full of curiosity about magic.

Su Nan explained, "Magic has a very interesting point, which is that it can always exist on an object that has been cast in various forms and ways."

Su Nan's finger touched the skin of a one-eyed ogre, extracting a bit of the magic power of dozens of modification spells remaining on the one-eyed ogre.

Instantly, that wisp of pink magic power turned into a light mist, floating on the tip of Su Nan's index finger.

"Look, Vasiliyan. This is the modification magic remaining in their bodies. It exists continuously in the form of the bloodline in these ogres."

At this time, the intelligent brain had already reverse-engineered the original normal form of these two ogres.

Two skinny ogres, three meters tall, like thin bamboo poles, with two pairs of eyes, appeared before Su Nan's eyes.

[The calculated primitive ogre should have errors compared to the ogre before it was modified, but the primitive ogre should have at least four eyes. Because there is a kind of plant magic similar to that of the Oak Wizard remaining on them, which merges the four eyes into one oversized giant eye to improve the combat power of the individual. It is somewhat similar to the Oak Wizard's magic of life transfer in ecological niches, but it is different.]

Su Nan looked at the skinny ogre in his mind, and then looked at the two big fat one-eyed ogres in front of him. Well, the difference was too great.

Vasiliyan listened with half understanding, and he suddenly said to Su Nan with some curiosity, "Lord Su Nan, can you teach me that Necromantic Whispers meditation method?"

Su Nan glanced at him in surprise. "Yes."

There was a death contract between Vasiliyan and himself. Therefore, he could only be loyal to himself and listen to his orders.

Moreover, he used a loyalty mechanism similar to that of werewolves on him, and his loyalty to himself would also increase tenfold when he was transformed into a death knight.

In addition, the existence of the wolf pack effect also allowed Su Nan to be aware of Vasiliyan's thoughts at all times, so Su Nan had nothing to guard against him.

Besides, the Necromantic Whispers meditation method was just an ordinary, even slightly low-level, meditation method. But if Vasiliyan could learn it, it would add to his combat power.

First of all, he would improve his understanding of death magic. Instead of using the spells that he had given him through magic potions as if he were using superpowers.

Secondly, his control over death magic would be more precise, and he might even be able to slightly improve it on the basis of 20 points of mental power and 20 points of mana.

However, Su Nan didn't have much hope for this. Although the Death Knight definitely had some wizarding talent, how much varied from person to person. It might not be enough to learn the level of a first-class wizard apprentice.

Therefore, Vasilian's learning might not be of much help to his combat effectiveness on the panel data.

But it's hard to say, because Su Nan wasn't sure about Vasilian's talent.

It was similar to opening a blind box.

The Death Knight potion could only help him improve his affinity for death magic and frost magic. The basic level of talent still depended on Vasilian himself.

Su Nan immediately transmitted the "Words of the Dead Meditation" through the wolf pack effect. "Once the 'Words of the Dead Meditation' is constructed, the words of the dead will often ring in your ears, but don't worry, as long as you master it, those sounds will disappear."

"The 'Words of the Dead Meditation' can improve the effect of death magic. The main improvement is in the necromantic spells within death magic."

"So it suits you very well. I have many enemies now, Vasilian. I look forward to your performance."

Vasilian immediately knelt on one knee to Su Nan. "Yes, my master. I will always be the sharpest sword in your hand."

"Vasilian is willing to destroy any enemy standing in your way for you. Like a storm of vengeance, sweeping across the sky."

Su Nan looked at the two cyclops ogres. Now, he had dragged the two cyclops ogres to a deserted and remote jungle, ready to interrogate them properly.

Su Nan asked Vasilian to make a torture rack for interrogation on the spot.

Who knew that when Su Nan looked at them, the two cyclops ogres actually sat on the ground and howled.

"Wuwuwu, it's over, an arcanist like the Drow Matron is going to eat us!"

"Ah? How did you see that?"

"Every time we eat people, don't we all find a deserted jungle, set up a bonfire, and then start roasting meat! Look, they even made a fire. The arcanist is going to eat us! Wuwuwuwu…"

"Ah, then aren't we going to become food? Wuwuwuwu…"

Su Nan didn't indulge them. "Shut up."

Vasilian immediately looked at the two clumsy cyclops ogres, and his pair of scarlet eyes met the single eyes of the two cyclops ogres.

The two cyclops ogres were so scared that they didn't dare to cry out. Only tears flowed from their huge single eyes, pattering and falling on the ground.

Su Nan said to them: "I have a few questions to ask you, perhaps you can get a reduced sentence because of it. First of all, where did you come from to the surface? Why can you speak the current common language of the continent! Did you learn it on the surface?"

Su Nan summoned the mutated werewolf butler, Wolf Three, who had been hiding in the dark.

Wolf Three's super hearing could distinguish whether they were lying from the speed of their heartbeats.

Wolf Three's super sense of smell could also distinguish whether they had any signs of deception from the hormones they secreted.

The two cyclops ogres immediately rushed to answer Su Nan, as if they were really afraid that Su Nan would eat them.

"We are wildlings from the underground city of Black Rye, and we are all servants of the Black Rye Matron."

"Yes, yes, yes, fifty-eight years ago, we wildlings began to relocate. The Black Rye Matron said that the surface was already very warm, and we could move back. She also said that our main city was the closest to the surface, so we spent forty years digging up to the surface from underground. It's just that we dug out a lot of holes…"

"The common language was learned after the Matron gave us spiders to eat… The Matron said that if we didn't know the common language, we would be illiterate."

"We haven't been up for long, and we were caught by you before we could eat a few people…"

Su Nan was thoughtful.

Fifty-eight years ago, wasn't that the day when the Eastern Empire was divided and occupied by the founding knights of the Storm Kingdom and the Platinum Republic?

That's right.

The so-called Black Rye Matron of the underground city must also be a wizard, or someone related to a wizard. Therefore, after she noticed that the magic tide had begun to return, she began to order her subordinates to dig passages to the surface.

This required a long time, so they dug for fifty-eight years before they finally began to operate on the surface.

I'm afraid this is just the first vanguard from the underground world.

The residents of the underground world definitely have a strong desire to conquer the surface world. After all, Su Nan had already noticed from the performance of the two ogres that the underground world was an extremely involutional world where resources were extremely scarce, and even people could eat each other.

Then the residents of the underground world must be eager to move up immediately.

This will probably be a huge dispute again.

However, it doesn't really matter to him. By the time their main force moves up, he should already be a formal wizard, or even a higher-ring wizard.

It's just that the scattered residents of the underground world who appear in his territory are a kind of trouble for him.

This kind of trouble must be controlled and turned into something controllable.

Su Nan looked at the two ogres. These two ogres may be creatures that the wizard caught from other planes, and then transformed into this.

I don't know if they are used as guards or as laborers.

However, these two big fools can be developed a bit, and it might be good to keep them as coolies to move heavy objects.

He also needs to study the magical transformations in their bodies.
