Chapter 14: Ethan's new weapon

The shield in his hand blocked a heavy blow in time, and the short sword in his right hand was ready to pierce with the fastest speed, directly piercing the sinker’s chest, eliminating the dark creature that suddenly rushed out from the side and attacked him. After that, Ethan quickly withdrew his dagger and set his posture again for the next round of attack.

"Good job, Ethan, your progress is fast."

It has been more than a long time since I left Camp Rogge. On this road, I didn't deliberately avoid dangerous enemies to act like Ethan did before, and even took the initiative to greet him and wipe out all the dark creatures he saw.

In just half a day, they eliminated more than a dozen wire-haired mice, more than 20 zombies, and unknown sinking demons.

As the distance from the camp gets farther and farther, the dark creatures encountered not only gradually become more difficult, but also in greater numbers.

This time I encountered a small tribe of fallen demons with dozens of people, among which was a mixture of at least three fallen magicians. Ishandra and Zul listed those three mages as priority kills at the first time. The goal of, and then slowly clean up these miscellaneous soldiers without the mage as a back-up.

For these two powerful wizards, even with melee combat, it is not difficult for them to eliminate these dozens of sinking demons. The only thing to pay attention to is Ethan's safety.

They did not express opposition to Ethan's sudden announcement of joining in to destroy the dark creatures in the evil cave, and even welcomed it.

"All those who are interested in fighting the devil are our companions."

The strength of strength is not within the range they care about. Even if Ethan is very weak, they are willing to take him to destroy the darkness.

Even on this road, the two mages deliberately exercised against Ethan: for example, if you encounter scattered zombies, let Ethan solve it by yourself, and when you encounter a brigade, deliberately release a few weak soldiers to Ethan, so that he can get actual combat. Exercise.

This is also the case. After eliminating the most threatening Sinking Magician for the first time and controlling the situation on the field, the two wizards deliberately let a few Sinking Demons stray away, allowing them to launch a sneak attack on Ethan.

They are not worried about Ethan's death. Through this period of understanding, both of them have a clear understanding of Ethan's strength.

In addition, they themselves are legal professions that cultivate spiritual power, and they are even more clear about the physical changes brought about by the increase in spiritual power.

Now that Ethan has increased his mental power, his mental reaction speed has surpassed that of ordinary people. When he concentrates his mind on fighting, there will be a feeling that the opponent's movements have slowed down.

Like when the Rasma priests just started to learn melee combat, this characteristic has almost become their biggest support. Excellent mental reaction ability allows them to master the opponent's movements well, and ample and strong mental power also allows them to think about ways to respond in a very short time.

The only thing that restricts their melee ability is the reaction speed of the body.

Ethan is also facing the same trouble now. Fortunately, his body is a young seventeen-year-old. The teenagers may not have enough physical strength, but their reaction speed is definitely at the peak of their lives, and their flexibility is much better than that of adults. A lot stronger, so I can barely keep up with my own mental speed and make appropriate response actions to kill the enemy.

After a period of tempering, Ethan has risen from defending against enemy sneak attacks to the level of anti-killing. Even if his opponents are just some weak and sinking monsters, it is a huge improvement.

Even if it is a weak and depraved monster, their strength is equivalent to that of an adult strong man. Their moving speed is even faster, and they can easily get rid of some cumbersome human beings. Being able to independently slay the Sinking Demon proved that Ethan's current combat effectiveness had surpassed that of ordinary people.

After killing the last few Sinkers, Ethan stood there and took a deep breath-the air filled with darkness and the unpleasant smell of Sinkers was not so wonderful, but it gave Ethan a heartfelt joy. : Every time you can or persist until the end of the battle, it is a happy thing.

"Your progress is faster than I expected. I'm so surprised that you have such a qualification, why haven't you started to become a real mage apprentice at such an old age?"

A true mage apprentice is able to initially master some introductory magic, and can even help his teacher to carry out some trivial magic experiments in the preliminary preparations. Although he is an apprentice, he is no longer an ordinary person, and he has truly mastered the power of magic. exist.

Some young people who are favored by the mage and taught by them are rarely those who have not yet started at this age-but the disciples who can be favored by the mage are born with strong spiritual power, and most of them only need to practice spiritual control. Then immediately began to condense the magic.

"Because I only started to really come into contact with magic not long ago."

Ethan looked at the dagger in his hand as he answered the question. This weapon that Kasha gave to him has now reached its end of life—the curly and broken blade, and the blade that was not long because of the point. The part has been broken to become shorter, and the only intact is the hilt.

Strictly speaking, his first weapon is very commemorative, but nowadays, even the value of collection does not exist. The ragged blade has been twisted so that it can't even be inserted into the scabbard and can only be discarded.

"There are a lot of items collected by the Sinking Demon. You can see if there are any weapons that are easy to use."

Unlike the two wizards, they all have their own weapons, such as Ishandra’s long stick and wand—if necessary, they can be used to perform cudgel skills. Ishandra’s cudgel skills are not fancy, but real. Can be used to fight demons.

Zul’s exclusive weapon is a peculiarly shaped dagger, which is said to be the exclusive personal equipment of the priests of the Rasma religion, which every priest has. This dagger has many functions, not only can it be used for close combat with people, but it can also assist in casting spells. It's just that Zul didn't use it at the moment. Instead, he used magic to create a bony scythe. If he were to change into a black hooded robe to match that gloomy and terrifying temperament...

"Can't you use your magic to make me a long sword or something?"

"This kind of magic requires continuous infusion of magic power to maintain its form, and it also carries my personal spiritual imprint, you can't use it."

Ethan nodded, and began to look for a handy weapon in this chaotic camp.

The most on the ground are the short swords and wooden sticks used by the Sinking Demon. These things are so rough that they are not necessarily better than your own short sword.

looked around, Ethan finally had to choose a stick that looked solid.

Seeing that he had chosen the "new weapon", several people were going to move on. They are not far from the evil cave, and they can even see the outline of the entrance to the evil cave at the end of their sight.

It is precisely because of being so close that there is such a huge Sinking Demon camp here.

"what?"

Just a few steps out, Ishandrola stopped the two of them, and then picked up an iron rod from the side of a rock next to it.

"this thing…"

waved his hand a few times, and the whistling wind seemed to tell everyone the weight of the iron rod, and the sudden lighting of electricity immediately afterward showed his extraordinaryness.

"Ha, your luck is really good."

Isandra handed the iron rod in front of Ethan: "Throw away the firewood in your hand, you can use this."

"what is this?"

Of course Ethan saw the flash of lightning, knowing that this was not an ordinary iron rod, but it was covered with mud and grass, and selling iron rods that were bleak compared to the wooden rod, really couldn’t tell. What kind of weapon is it.

The well-informed Zul was the first to see the body of this weapon: "If I read it right, this is a one-handed warhammer."

"Warhammer?" Ethan saw a one-handed hammer at the blacksmith Chaxi: "Where is the hammer?"

Ishandrola stretched out his hands: "It should be broken, this is the second half of the one-handed hammer...that is, the torso part and the handle part connecting the hammer head."

After only hearing the words here, I might think that Ishandrola is playing with Ethan, what good is a broken weapon? So the female mage immediately explained: "Don't think that without the hammer head is not as good as the stick in your hand. This is a magical equipment."

Ethan nodded, he also thought of this, after all, the electric light that had just flashed was not an illusion. However, without the hammer head, this magic equipment has been damaged, can it still exert its due power?

"You don't have to worry about not being able to exert its power. I just tried it. Although the engraved magic is damaged and can't exert its full power, most of the magic can still work."

No matter how much I said, it’s better to experience it personally. Ishandra told Ithan how to inject his mental power and how to use this magical equipment correctly.

With the infusion of mental power, I found the "switch" in the iron rod. The iron rod in Ethan's hand suddenly flashed dazzling electric light, and the flickering arc kept pulsing on the iron rod, suddenly releasing electricity. Even Zul, the powerful necromancer, couldn't help but step back.

"Oh? It seems that the power is not bad, but what kind of magic is attached to this piece of equipment?"

At that moment, the beating electric light hit Zul's body, making his body protected by the bone armor and powerful magic power feel a tingling tingling. If you change to an ordinary person...

"It should be a very powerful lightning magic, but the final shaping and casting part of the magic spell should be inscribed on the hammer. I don't know which magic it is without seeing the hammer."

So, this is a stick that can automatically discharge. Fortunately, this stick will automatically absorb the energy floating nearby to replenish magic power for storage. Ethan only needs to use the mental power to trigger, and the iron rod will automatically convert the stored magic power into lightning and cast it out.

"So, this thing is an electric baton?"
