Lord of Arcane

Chapter 68 The Coming of War Creates Spells

The death of a mere sheep naturally did not attract any attention from Mage Abbock. As soon as he came over, he discovered the source of negative energy radiation——

The remains of the undead in the black robe.

"Apprentice, you go out first!"

"Yes."

Xia Duo immediately exited the house. The negative energy lingering in the room made him feel very uncomfortable. This is the instinct of life, and even a mage is not immune.

When he came out of the house, Xado didn't run around, but stopped in a relatively unaffected position, waiting for Mage Abbock.

However, he was not idle, but looked in all directions while reviewing the spells he had learned.

There are not many houses in this village, there are only about a dozen households, but every household seems to be uninhabited, and it is unknown whether they were killed by undead creatures or have been hiding.

Xia Duo guessed irresponsibly.

After a while, Mage Aiboke came out with a dignified expression. Xia Duo didn't dare to ask anything, but just followed him to check one by one in the village.

Xia Duo himself didn't find anything, but Mage Aiboke seemed to have found something, but if he didn't say it, Xia Duo had no way of knowing.

Finally, Mage Eberk stopped at the center of the village, in front of the altar of the Lord of Radiance, "Okay, let's go back."

Still casting spells as they did when they came, a white light flashed, and the two returned to their previous room. Not only Master Horst was still there, but also the other seven mages who appeared when they received the badge.

"Apprentice, the information you provided this time is very important. You will be rewarded by the lord after the war. Now, go out." Eberk drew a cake for Shado and dismissed him.

……

Shortly after returning to the camp, Shado received a summons from Master Horst.

Through the badge he received before, Master Horst told him, or told the apprentice who had obtained the seal of Master Horst's secret magic like Shado—

"The countdown to the war is about to begin, and everyone must stay in the barracks and wait for orders to go out at any time."

Although Shado had received this news from Master Horst before, the arrival of the official order still made him feel great pressure.

Of course, there is also an inexplicable relief.

They have always talked about wars, wars, but there has never been an exact number when the war will come. It is like a prisoner facing the death penalty. This kind of torment has always tormented all the little people like Xado.

In the case of unequal information, we can only strengthen and arm ourselves as much as possible, and be prepared at all times.

So, the day has finally come!
Shado immediately contacted Dean and Sammy through [Communication Technique].

Dean is easy to say, anyway, he is now in a group with Xia Duo. For so long, Xia Duo has convinced him. His team is actually equivalent to Xia Duo's team, and they all listen to Xia Duo's command.

However, there is a problem on Sammy's side. The orcs have just encountered attrition. Even if the orcs are beheaded later, it will be a big blow to morale.

But Shado had no other choice. The collaborators in different mission areas had already chosen Sammy, or only Sammy.

In this case, Xia Duo had to consider their current state.

If they can't recover as soon as possible, not only will they suffer, but it may even affect Shado.

For Shado, this is especially important.

"Sami, have you received the summons from Mage Horst? How are things on your side?"

In the face of Xado's inquiry, Sammy responded almost in seconds, and he also realized his situation. With the current situation, if he loses Xiaduo as a collaborator, he is very dangerous.

"Received. The condition of the wounded on our side has stabilized, but a few people are no longer fit to continue fighting. Six people have been added to us. Only one is an adventurer, and the rest are civilians."

Sammy did not conceal the real situation on his side. Concealing at this time is really the last resort. Only openly and actively seeking solutions is the right way.

six people?Xia Duo didn't expect that nearly one-third of the people on Sammy's side would be replaced, and the team that had been running in almost the same way suddenly changed blood.

At that time, Xia Duo thought that there was a magical treatment, and he only needed to add three death quotas. Unexpectedly, three people were also replaced.

It seems that divine treatment is not omnipotent, at least the divine treatment provided in the camp is quite limited.

"Let's do physical training and formation training first. I will send someone over to conduct confrontation training with you." Xia Duo replied.

The only thing that is more fortunate now is that, except for the newcomers just added by Sammy, everyone else has really seen the orcs, and has a certain understanding of the true power of the orcs.

This is already ahead of other apprentice teams.

Xia Duo cheered on Sammy, but he was not a good at words. In the end, it turned out to be Sammy cheering him on.

After suspending the [Communication Technique], Shado explained that after Jibu took someone to the Sammy camp tomorrow, he started his final preparations.

Needless to say about equipment, hand crossbows, daggers, magic boxes, he always carries with him, he can't afford other magic equipment, but the [Summon Mount] scroll, because he went out to the town for actual combat before, and there are some gains, he can buy it now get up.

It's just that he can't enter the Mage Tower now, and he can't buy it at all.There are magic items for sale in Savile Town, but the price of any magic scrolls related to escape and life-saving has multiplied several times, and Shado can't afford them anymore.

The helplessness of the poor is nothing more than this.

When you go out to equip, you only need to work hard on physical fitness and spells. It is difficult for the former to make breakthroughs. Now Xia Duo can basically keep up with the team's actions, and there is no need for others to wait for him deliberately, so does Dean.

As for spells, Xia Duo has a lot of ideas. Instant casting is one of the means that can bring the most improvement. Among the 0-level spells, the [Brightening Technique] that he is most familiar with has been able to cast spells almost instantaneously.

Others are not difficult, just practice more, summarize more, combine theory with practice, and follow the steps.

Looking at it this way, Shado is actually ready for war (relatively speaking).

Today, after seeing the enriched form of negative energy, Xia Duo has a deeper understanding of energy and magic net. Combined with the previous experience of changing the [Brightening Technique], he has an idea of ​​​​creating a new spell.

This is a must-have experience for almost all famous mages or arcane masters in the apprenticeship stage, and now Shado has reached this stage.

The spell he wants to create is very simple - [Water Creation], maybe someone has created it before him, but Shado has not obtained any relevant spellcasting elements, not even the spell model.

This is entirely based on Shado's cognition and understanding of the principles of magic and the nature of the magic net, combined with the eight 0-level spells he has learned, and the idea that arises.

He didn't ask how powerful this spell was or what it could bring him, but just regarded it as an act of theory guiding practice, which was very common.

There will be more of this behavior in the future.

　[Water creation] In the dnd rule book, it is the magic of priests, paladins, and druids, but if it is put into the real world, [water creation] and [brightness] have no essential difference, even [ Fireball] is also, they can be classified as plastic energy spells, but the specific energy involved is different.
