Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 69 The Blessing of the Moon Goddess

The night was very dark, and the pale silver moonlight could not dispel the deep shadows in the forest. The endless darkness seemed to spread fear throughout the forest.

But there is still a vigorous black shadow that shuttles through the towering shadow trees in the lush forest at an extremely fast speed.

Suddenly, Thorne stopped galloping.

Looking at the insignificant ranger mark on the tree pole beside him, he took out the dagger hanging from his waist, and gently modified the original mark on the tree pole.

It was this mark that conveyed to him the news of the existence of lake spirits in the nearby lake, which gave him a fairly good harvest.

Now the lake spirit has been cleared by him.

Then this mark would naturally have to be changed by him, so as not to affect the rangers who inadvertently broke into this place and cause unnecessary trouble after discovering this false mark.

In Toril's world, most of the ranger professions are based on the good camp, and rangers are often linked together by a loose association.

Contacts are the shadowy markers in these wildernesses.

Their main duty is to help social civilization survive and grow in the wilderness.

In the uninhabited areas of the wilderness, good rangers will take the initiative to explore these lands and find soil for the seeds of civilization to grow in.

Prospect for mineral resources to benefit corresponding settlements, or eradicate evil before it can spread.

Other rangers go on missions such as scouting enemy positions, or hunting dangerous beasts and criminals.

Especially in most areas dominated by borders, rangers have played a vital role in protecting civilization and safety, and this profession is therefore highly appreciated by the original residents.

Both rangers and druids are inclined to the way of nature, but druids focus on nature, while rangers pay more attention to the protection and development of wilderness civilization.

This is also the main reason why Thorne chose the ranger profession in the first place.

In the lich's secret lair, after Thorne left the cluttered library.

After wandering through other passages, it is a pity that no useful information and treasures were found in those passages, and they had been searched clean, so they turned and left.

However, he still has a heart for that page that seems to have fallen out of the book.

The Godslayer Church and the will of the multiverse, such an existence that makes people feel unreachable at first glance, have a slight connection with the players.

This made Thorn have to doubt that all the players suddenly traveled to this foreign world. Could it be that this was not an accident, but someone had planned it for a long time?
This somewhat unrealistic idea suddenly popped up in Thorne's mind, but he vaguely felt that only this idea could explain these abnormalities clearly.

After all, in this high-magic world, except for the system that comes with the player, everything else is too real.

After Thorn marked the tree pole, he looked up at the gloomy sky accompanied by only the pale moonlight, and sighed.

Whether it's a conspiracy or an accident, it doesn't really matter to him now.

Because he is really too weak, a person who may not even be able to protect himself, is it useful to think so much?

He could only press that page deeply in his heart, live a good life before thinking about future plans.

Then Thorn's hazy figure quickly disappeared into the thick night.

……

Somewhere in the ruins of Yuanshan Town.

Click!

The bright bonfire burns dry wood, sputtering sparks in bursts of crackling, bringing a ray of light and warmth to this hidden and dark corner.

The troll Trundle sat on the ground a little bored, leaning his whole body against the ruins of the wall, looking at the surrounding environment from time to time.

Under the bright red light of the fire, an imperceptible worry flashed across his seemingly calm expression.

The sorceress Anderina sat opposite, holding a magic book, and interpreting every paragraph of the book with concentration.

Suddenly, Anderina's expression changed, she raised her head slightly, her watery eyes looked at the shadow not far away.

Swish!
A slight sound of footsteps came from not far away, and a black figure soon appeared within the envelope of the fire.

Sensing the concerned gazes from the two, Thorne did not speak, but smiled faintly as a response.

The night in the Emerald Field was still so dangerous. Even though the distance was less than ten kilometers, Thorne still encountered a lot of trouble.

He has encountered all these humanoid creatures that are active at night, such as bear goblin rogues, lizardman stalkers, and wolf man hunters.

Then all turned into a fairly good amount of experience and practice points.

However, he was a bit embarrassed by a large group of forest servants and goblins. These little guys who were more agile than monkeys in the woods were too difficult to deal with.

Thorne put away the blood-stained dagger, walked up to Anderina and asked, "You should master the skill of mysterious knowledge, right?"

Knowledge represents the study of a certain science.

For example, Thorne's knowledge of nature.

This knowledge includes the living habits, distribution areas and racial characteristics of animals, fine creatures, giants, humanoid monsters, plants, seasons, climate, insects, etc. these natural creatures.

As well as common attacks, special abilities, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities.

When he encounters these creatures in the wild, he will understand them more fully, and he will make the most correct response to whether to leave or stay.

Mysterious knowledge includes: ancient secrets, magic runes, mysterious emblems, mysterious words, constructed creatures, dragons, and magical beasts.

This knowledge is an indispensable skill for spellcasters, and it can also identify some characteristics and functions of the equipment based on the various aura runes on the magic equipment.

Anderina put down the book, looked at Thorn with puzzled eyes, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

Seeing the other party's response, Thorne immediately took out the string of silver-white cross star pendants looted from the corpses from the dimensional bag, and threw it at Anderina.

"Is this for me?"

Anderina took the pendant thrown by Thorne, looked at the delicate silver-white cross star in her palm, felt the strong magical aura around her, and blurted out subconsciously in a daze.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she immediately realized her slip of the tongue, her pretty face was covered by the flames, and she felt a little hot, so she quickly lowered her head and stopped speaking.

"... Please help me identify it." Thorne said with some embarrassment. He could guess from the magic aura emitted by the pendant that it was at least an extraordinary quality equipment.

Among all the equipment, the price of jewelry-type magic equipment is often the most expensive, generally conservatively above 2000 gold coins.

It is naturally reluctant to let him give away the pendant for nothing, not because of stinginess, but mainly because of being too poor.

There are too many places where he needs money now.

Just for the awakening ceremony of the second-ring divine arts, all kinds of expensive materials need to be prepared. It is conservatively estimated that it will cost about 3000 gold coins.

Thorne was able to make up enough of what he gained from going out tonight, not counting the cost of enchanting the long sword in his hand.

Andrina stopped talking, but focused on the pendant in her palm, carefully observing the mysterious magic runes carved on the silver-white cross star.

Then recall the knowledge of magic runes, and analyze and interpret them one by one.

With an undetectable light flicking across her hand, all the attribute information of the pendant suddenly appeared in her mind.

A look of surprise flashed in Anderina's eyes, and then she threw it directly to Thorne.

"Thank you very much!" Thorne took the pendant and was not in a hurry to check it, but thanked him first.

"It's just a matter of raising your hands, you're welcome." Anderina focused her eyes on the book in her hand again, and responded lightly.

Seeing this, Thorne stopped disturbing the other party. After greeting the troll Trundle, he turned and walked out.

This corner was originally a hidden underground warehouse of the hotel in Yuanshan Town, but now the things inside have been snatched away by jackals.

Among the entire ruins, it was the relatively well-preserved place that Thorn found. It would be no problem to have a peaceful rest in it for a night.

Andelina glanced at the back of Thorn leaving in a hurry, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

A sentence suddenly came to my mind: I am used to the gentleness of mass production, so I am particularly moved by the clumsy sincerity.

Then she looked up at the bleak moonlight, chuckled lightly, and shook her head.

Blessing of the Moon Goddess

Type: jewelry

Quality: Purple Excellent

Restrictions: Unavailable to non-good alignments
Effect: Perception +1, Charm +1 (up to 20 points)
Moderate evocation aura: moon arrow (2/2 times per day)
(Note: Anyone who enjoys the light of Selun will be blessed if they will. Don't forget to ask the moon for help when you are in trouble.)
Moon Arrow: Summon the power of the full moon in the celestial body, create an arrow shining with moonlight, and fly out from the palm of your hand to attack the enemy. The moon arrow will accurately hit any living or undead creature within the range.

(Note: The power of the Moon Arrow will gradually increase with the brightness of the moonlight at night.)
Thorne looked at the pendant in his palm, and a look of joy flashed in his eyes. It turned out to be the rarest piece of equipment to improve attributes.

Charisma attribute points are not important to him.

However, increasing the perception attribute increased his perception attribute to 20 points, so that the attribute points he obtained after upgrading could be directly allocated to the most deficient strength attribute.

And the accompanying spell: Moon Arrow!

Another effective long-range magic attack method was added for him.

Although the power can be maximized at night with moonlight, it does not mean that it cannot be used during the day.

So Thorne didn't hesitate whether it was something of a dead person, and directly wore it around his neck and hid it in his collar.

Clang!
Then Thorne drew out his long sword, and looked at the thick night, and in his eyes, there were monotonous black and white ruins everywhere.

Occasionally, the roar of a few beasts or monsters added a bit of gloom and terror to the night.

Night is the most active time period for hunters in the Emerald Fields.

As a Thorn who never thinks he has too much experience, he will naturally not let go of this good opportunity to gain experience quickly.
