There was a hint of panic in the White Horse City.

Because as the news of the destruction of Amber City came back, there was another gossip circulating.

That is, the elite survey corps sent by White Horse City was directly brutally killed by the two-headed ogre, and it was still ruthlessly brutally killed, and only a few people escaped alive. There is news that the two-headed ogre is a high-level wizard, and its strength is enough to threaten the safety of White Horse City. The strength of a professional will not be written on the face. If the opponent does not explode with real power, you have to test your eyesight if you want to judge.

The two-headed ogre has a [Multicast] feat.

This is the most powerful innate spellcasting feat. Even the gods cannot easily obtain it. As the name implies, its function is to cast spells multiple times. The head of the two-headed ogre can use two spells respectively, even if the number of spells mastered is not comparable. Human wizards, but the lethality of the outbreak is several times that of human wizards. If it is really a high-level wizard, then plus its own creature level, the challenge level of the two-headed ogre is legendary.

Innate strength of 18 points or more, far exceeding the physique of ordinary people, plus the spellcasting ability of high-level wizards.

Can melee, can cast spells, can resist.

To deal with such an existence, at least half a team in the legendary realm is required to ensure that there will be no major casualties, and the challenge difficulty is not too far from that of an adult dragon.

Sauron entered the secret shop very carefully, and the guards of White Horse City became more and more strict.

It was already evening, because he wasted a little time avoiding the guards to patrol, so he didn't go to the caravan station to see Vivian, but first copied the scroll of level 0 spells, and then found one place to stay for one night. White Horse City has completely implemented a curfew. After dark, no one is allowed to move freely. If found, they will be questioned or even arrested. Although he was not strictly investigated, Sauron didn't want to deal with those guards at all.

He is a wanderer.

These guys don't have a natural affinity for rogues, and they'll probably be in trouble to lock you up for nothing.

………………

The Arcane Shop sells most spell scrolls.

However, the highest level cap is a 5th-level spell. Spell scrolls with more than 5th level are difficult to buy through conventional means, and must be obtained from some special organizations. Wizards still maintain the ancient monopoly of knowledge, and many wizarding organizations must join them before they can learn higher-level spells. As for the top-level spells above the 8th level, certain conditions must be met before they can be learned, because these spells have amazing destructive power.

Level 0 spells are very cheap and only require a dozen Kindlers, but Level 1 spells are several times more expensive and require dozens of Kindlers. Some may exceed 100 Kindlers. Most 2nd level spells start at 150 kindlers, many will be closer to 300 kindlers. Most of the 3rd-level spells are around 500 Jindler, and a few will reach the value of 800 Jindler. Level 4 spells and above basically exceed 1,000 Kindlers, and a few spell scrolls are worth as much as 3,000-5,000 Kindlers.

So when Sauron saw the price, he immediately realized how hard the wizards were at the time.

As a master, you are always short of money, although you are really rich!

Sauron only bought the lowest level 0 spells, and he couldn't buy anything more expensive at all, and he wouldn't be able to use it for the time being.

Spell scrolls are powerful, but they are extremely expensive and difficult to make. If they are not copied into the spellbook, but used as a one-time use, a little fierce battle can make you bankrupt. Sometimes even after a battle, the Jindler gains you get are not enough for a fraction of the cost of making a spell scroll.

It got dark.

Sauron found a hotel to rest, and then began to read the spell book.

The period before the appearance of the ancient red dragon was relatively calm, and there were not many earth-shattering events.

The only serious thing is a big explosion, other than that, everything is relatively peaceful for the time being. Because the gods also fell silent and began to fight against a terrible energy storm, until they were stripped of their divine power by this energy storm and fell to the mortal world. Sauron didn't remember the big explosion very clearly, but only vaguely remembered part of the information.

About a short time later, a large explosion occurred at a place called 'Stonard' in the polar location.

The blast, which was as powerful as 100 atomic bombs, enveloped an area close to 1,000 kilometers, forced a large-scale migration of many populations near the poles, and further intensified the fighting and killing in the southern region a year later. This explosion was calculated by some researchers at the time, because they had a lot of advantages in the profession of wizards. There is no clue about this big explosion. There are existences in the legendary realm who seek answers from the gods, but the gods are silent.

They did not find any signs of man-made, nor obvious traces of spells, most likely a natural explosion.

at last.

The event has been classified as 'Nature's Mystery', which ranks among the three largest bombings on Earth.

Many people therefore gave up the exploration of the legendary event quest that may exist in the back.

There have been three bizarre explosions on Earth, namely China's 'Apocalypse Big Bang', India's 'Death Mound Incident' and Russia's 'Tungus Big Bang'.

Among them, the Tunguska explosion occurred at about 7:00 am on June 30, 1908. The explosion power was equivalent to 500 atomic bombs or dozens of bombs exploded at the same time, and more than 60 million trees in more than 2,150 square kilometers were burned and fell down. There has been no clear answer to this matter, and it was finally deduced that an 'antimatter annihilation' explosion occurred. (knowledge)

inside this world.

The same is true for the big explosion that will happen in the polar 'Stonard'. Although it is only one-fifth of the power of the Tunguska explosion, many spellcasters have entered the investigation, and some people have even used the 'legendary prophecy' , but still no clues. The gods just lost their perception of the mortal world during this time, so they don't know the reason for the big explosion. They can only be sure that this explosion has mutated that area, and there are some special things that even demons feel dangerous. biology.

Those creatures wouldn't leave the blast range, so they weren't too threatening.

Sauron also went there to see it, but since he was not a spellcaster, he couldn't find many clues at all, and quickly left there.

Until the gods return to the heavens, there are unknown places.

The big explosion has never had any clues, but the consequences have spread to the whole world. Many creatures near the polar regions have seen the rising terrifying mushroom cloud, and the shaman priests predicted that a terrible disaster will come. So this has forced a large-scale migration of biological populations near the polar regions, and many species that have disappeared have appeared in the eyes of the world. But it should be still early, because it will take about a year for them to migrate.

Regarding this big bang, the most reliable inference is that it is related to the antimatter eradication spell in the arcane empire period.

Most wizards believe that only things from that era can produce such a terrible explosion, but unfortunately no one has been able to find the real answer.

………………

Inside the hotel.

Sauron temporarily gave up the research on arcane missiles and began to memorize the most basic level 0 spell model.

It may be because he studied the 1st-level spell first, and when he constructed the 0th-level spell model, it suddenly felt a lot easier. In particular, the simplest light spell has less than 30 spell nodes, plus a low-difficulty spell circuit. It took Sauron less than two hours to complete the model construction of the 'Lighting Technique'.

but.

At this time, a row of data also appeared:

"Successful learning!"

"You have successfully constructed the spell model of the level 0 spell [Brightness]! ... Do you spend 30 killing experience points to permanently store it in the data template?"

"After permanent storage, you won't need a spell book to memorize it again."

Can you do this?

There was a hint of surprise on Sauron's face, and then he chose to confirm, and then a stream of data emerged, and the data in his brain actually automatically formed the spell model of the light spell.

"ORZ..."

Sauron tried to cast a spell, and a gleam of light appeared on his fingertips. As the spell slot was consumed, the spell model that had been successfully constructed also disappeared.

He slowly closed his eyes, and he found that the original spell model was really memorized in his brain. He didn't need to memorize the spell book, but he could reconstruct the spell model by recalling it himself.

"What if I could store it all?" Sauron looked at his fingertips in surprise, and murmured, "Then, won't I be able to memorize without a spell book in the future?"

The wizard's spellbook is important.

Because some high-level spells are too complicated, there is no way to remember them without reading the spell book, and they may even lose their ability to cast spells.

It's like you can't always remember a long and complicated academic paper, and this academic paper can't be wrong when recalling, and if you make a mistake, it may burst your head. So if it can be stored, Sauron will be able to memorize spells if he takes away the spell book in the future, which is equivalent to forming an invisible spell book in his brain, but this memory requires additional killing experience.
