V1.Chapter 56

Sauron waited beside him for a long time.

It was not until it was confirmed that the wizard had completely left before he walked towards the corpses of those gray dwarves, who should have something valuable on them. Although the high-ranking Mage was disgusted, he was a little thief and his younger sister had to support him. Naturally, the more money, the better. In the future, there will be many places for the little girl to spend money, so she has to prepare some savings anyway. Moreover, if you really want to let go and spend money, a set of the lowest-level extraordinary equipment will require more than 3,000 Kindlers.

There are bloodstains everywhere on the ground, and the traces seem to be a sudden battle.

"Inner bar?"

Sauron looked at the footprints nearby, frowned and muttered to himself, "It seems that they were walking together at first, but they suddenly started fighting for some reason."

The footprints left on the periphery are neat, as if a group of people are protecting something.

The footprints at the back began to become chaotic. When a person was running and sprinting, it was naturally different from the footprints left by walking. Sauron tried to restore the initial picture in his mind, but could only vaguely judge that the gray dwarf suddenly launched an attack. Because there are traces of second-order warriors charging on the ground, they stimulate their potential in a short period of time and burst into sprints at an astonishing speed. The speed of ordinary warriors can also reach the level of Olympic champions.

"This is?"

Sauron reached out and picked up a piece of debris, then opened the three corpses, and found a gray dwarf whose chest was pierced, leaving corrosion marks on the wound.

"Acid arrow?"

Sauron carefully took off the ring on the corpse's finger, with a hint of surprise on his face, and murmured: "So they also brought the Master, but they were instantly killed!"

There is a wizard in the ranks of the gray dwarves.

However, the strength is only second-order, and it is about a fifth-level wizard. It may be that the incident happened suddenly at the beginning, and he was killed by a high-level wizard with a strong acid arrow before he had time to react. Sauron picked up the ring and stroked it, a faint spell of brilliance appeared on it, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious, because this was a low-level wizard's ring, which could additionally store spells of 1-2 levels of memory.

"At least 1,200 Kindlers!"

Sauron put away the ring and continued to look for the gray dwarf wizard's body, secretly saying: "I don't even touch the body of the line, or he is very rich and doesn't care, or there is something very important. delay."

"What else happened during this time?"

"Damn!"

"Why didn't you pay more attention to the situation at that time?"

Sauron quickly turned out a dimensional bag, which was also a low-level dimensional bag. Although the second-level wizard was not cheap, he had not yet entered the ranks of local tyrants. There are many things in it, and it seems that there are not many valuables, but there is one thing that Sauron really wants.

That is - the spell book!

The grey dwarf wizard's spell book is a thick black book with mysterious runes imprinted on the outside, it will not be damaged by natural causes and can be kept for a long time. Sauron turned a page, and it was filled with dense symbols, many of which he knew. Because he didn't have the basic expertise in 'secret text recognition', he could only judge the spells copied above based on experience.

The first spell is the 'greater spell'.

It can double the size of the creature, increase its own strength by 2 points, but reduce its agility by 2 points.

With metamagic feats, the spell can also be localized to double the size of something. Of course, this effect is not researched by the aborigines of the plot, but the ability created by a certain guy with an unruly mind who spends a lot of time and combines some super-magic specialties, and can also be used in conjunction with the 'shrinking technique'.

The second spell is 'Arcane Missiles'.

This one does not need to be explained, it is one of the most commonly used spells by wizards, because its casting time is only one second.

The spells recorded later, one or two Sauron did not know, but most of them still remembered, namely Charm Human, Burning Hand, Colorful Jet, Mage Armor, Shield Technique, Spider Web Technique, Brute Force, and Flame Arrow.

Each spell is recorded on more than ten sheets of paper, of course, it is not necessary to write such a long spell.

There are many patterns on it, and some are even three-dimensional patterns.

This is the legendary spell model. After the wizards transcribe the spells into the spell book, they will analyze and construct them for a period of time. According to their own talent and intelligence, wizards need a long period of time to understand them, and then construct a spell model in their own brains, and finally connect the perception to the magic net to form a spell slot to record. The memory of this spell model will be stored in the brain, and after casting the spell, the energy gathered through the magic net will be consumed, and then they will need to re-memorize the spell model once.

A simple analogy.

The spell model formed by the wizard is like a bullet, which needs to be loaded into the spell slot generated by the magic net.

The bullet went off.

Then this spell model disappears, and you need to re-memorize it through the spell book, unless your talent is so good that you can recall an extremely complex integrated circuit board without relying on notes. There can be no mistakes in the process of reconstructing the spell model from memory. Errors will lead to spell backlash. The more advanced the spell backlash is, the more serious it is, and it may explode your head in an instant.

In Sauron's memory, it seems that except for advanced arcanists, there are not many people who can re-memorize spells without relying on spell books.

Arcanists have a lot of intelligence with 25 points, which is equivalent to a biological computer.

Ordinary people's memory, even a relatively good wizard, is difficult to reach that level, so they must carry a spell book with them.

The ability to master spells is very slow. For a wizard with an intelligence of around 18, it takes half a month to learn the first spell of the first level. However, after learning it, the memory is much simpler. They only need to spend a period of time to meditate after casting the spell, and then they can reconstruct a spell model. Therefore, the number of spells learned by wizards is also limited. Generally, high-level wizards master many spells, and low-level wizards master few spells.

Only wizards in the legendary realm have enough time and energy to collect more spells.

"This is?"

Sauron took out a special roll of paper, opened it, glanced at it, and quickly put it away.

There are three tentacles on it.

If he remembered correctly, it should be 'Shadow Black Tentacle', a four-level spell that can summon three energy tentacles to bind and wrap around the enemy. The grey dwarf wizard didn't transcribed it into the spellbook, which means he was probably just a wizard below seventh level.

The Master's worth is really high!

Soran calculated what he found by touching the corpse, and it was worth more than 2,000 Kindlers.

"Ow!"

Just as Sauron was happily rummaging through other corpses and found all the valuables, a wolf howl suddenly sounded in the distance. He speeded up all of a sudden, stuffed things into the dimension bag he just discovered, and then came to the corpses of the gray dwarves with primitive firearms.

"It turned out to be Shidanwan's musket."

He picked up an alchemical weapon and weighed it, and then stuffed it into the dimension bag. This musket was as thick as an adult's arm, and was made of polished stone projectiles. Because of the primitive craftsmanship, both the range and the target are relatively general, and the firing speed is not fast. Sometimes the power is not as good as the strong crossbow and longbow, especially the longbow of some human races, with an effective range of more than 300 meters. It can penetrate half a centimeter thick steel plate, just like a sniper rifle.

The craftsmanship of this primitive musket is similar to that of the eighteenth century.

There are better muskets in the hands of the gnomes of Tolderui, because of their physical disadvantage, this group of small creatures is very obsessed with the study of alchemy.

Unfortunately, this weapon could not deal with a black dragon with a biological level of 24. In the end, the entire city was destroyed by the dragon's breath.

It is estimated that it will happen in a year.

The howls of the wolves were getting closer and closer. After Sauron hurriedly cleaned the battlefield, he approached the road.

He doesn't want to face a pack of wolves now.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and many wild creatures have begun to move. I don't know how many carnivorous creatures will be attracted by the bloody smell here.

When Sauron left, he saw a pair of dark green pupils in the woods.

That's a gnoll scout!

They can smell blood within a kilometer range, and will scatter their actions when hunting. After finding their prey, they will call their companions through special sounds. Maybe this group of wild wolves will have to fight with gnolls.

There's bound to be a bash here tonight, and it's better to stay away from them.
