Artificer Adventure Guide

"Jili Gulu, Jili Gulu..."

Just as Carl and Hope were carefully exploring the canyon, in the goblin camp deep in the canyon, several skinny figures were surrounding the corpse of a giant lizard.

They had no head, and their skinny four arms were waving randomly, stuffing the torn giant lizard meat into the two mouths in their chests.

From the appearance, this monster looked like two ordinary goblins were forcibly fused together.

But they obviously lacked sufficient wisdom.

"Ah! Kakafuga!"

Suddenly, one of the monsters raised his head and stopped eating.

He staggered to the warehouse where the tribe stored weapons, and then came to the underground ritual site through the tunnel that the rust monster accidentally opened.

The area around the black stone sword is now full of goblin corpses. At this time, two of the goblin corpses are slowly merging under the black energy released by the black stone sword.

The monster that ran over hurriedly crawled to the side of the greatsword, and as a stream of blood-colored energy was extracted from his body, the goblin corpse finally completed the final fusion.

The new monster crawled on the ground in the same way, and the monster that had been drained of blood-colored energy climbed up weakly and left the underground ritual site with the new monster.

When their figures disappeared from the ritual site, new black energy surged out of the black stone greatsword and selected the corpses of two more goblins.

Coming out of the underground, the two monsters returned to the corpse of the giant lizard and started a new round of eating.

The new monster still carried some of the power of the black stone greatsword on its body, which made the giant lizards in the fence in the distance start to stir.

But because of long-term breeding, they had no intention of resisting.

After this feeding, the monsters no longer went to the underground ritual site, but picked up various weapons beside them and began to wander around the tribe, as if they were on guard against something.

…

I don’t know how long it took, two sneaky figures appeared outside the goblin tribe.

Looking at the monsters wandering at the entrance of the tribe, one of the figures asked his companions beside him:

"Carl! What is that!"

The people who came were Carl and Hope. After walking carefully for more than three hours, they finally arrived at the goblin tribe deep in the canyon.

"Hmm~, hiss~, I can't tell, it looks a bit like a hideous mutant."

"Hideous mutant? What is that?"

"It is said that it is a monster transformed by ancient evil demons using goblins. I have only seen it a few times in textbooks."

Looking at the strange figure in the distance, Carl's brows hidden under the power armor gradually frowned.

Although there may not be evil demons around the hideous mutant, this twisted monster is a natural representative of evil.

In Eberron, the sentence pattern of "born evil..." is mostly a subjective evaluation.

Because of the special design of the entire universe by the Creator Dragons, the vast starry sky isolates the influence of the gods, and also makes the vast majority of intelligent life on the planet Eberron do not have the concept of "natural camp tendency".

In the game Baldur's Gate 3 that Carl had played before, the red dragon was the representative of chaotic evil.

But in Eberron, the camp that each dragon eventually showed was completely determined by the three views that were cultivated after birth.

There are both good and lawful red dragons and evil and chaotic gold dragons.

Even the mind flayers, creatures from the other plane of the Mad Kingdom, have emerged as some lawful and good individuals after they were separated from the influence of the Mad Kingdom.

But as a species created by the top evil demons at the time, the hideous mutants are one of the few representatives of "innate evil".

These cruel guys are hostile to all alien races and are loyal lackeys of the evil demons.

"What should we do now? Should we just kill them?"

Weighing the axe in her hand, Hope looked eager to try.

This was her first official battle after level 3.

"Wait a minute, I'll seduce him."

Carl raised his left arm and aimed at the hideous mutant in the distance.

As the pulley and bowstring operated, a magic crossbow arrow cut through the air and hit the monster's body directly.

"Plop"

The hideous monster fell to the ground and never got up again.

Carl: "..."

Hope: "...Where is the seduction you agreed on? What's the difference between this and my direct attack?"

"Ahem, sorry, I made a mistake. Let's just sneak in. Call me if you encounter any problems!"

After two awkward coughs, Carl no longer restricted Hope's actions. The two of them split up and slipped into the goblin tribe.

However, just as Carl climbed over the wall, Hope heard the screams of a hideous monster.

The sound was so loud that Carl felt he could hear it even if he was standing at the entrance of the canyon.

"Alas~, why would I expect a barbarian to kill these monsters quietly? Didn't I just rush through when I played "Assassin's Creed"?"

Karl patted the helmet of the power armor and no longer hid his figure. Relying on the excellent power increase of the power armor, he jumped more than two meters high and came directly to the arrow tower of the tribe.

"Biubiubiu..."

The magic crossbow and the lightning launcher on the chest were activated one after another, and the electric light and the azure magic crossbow actually briefly created a feeling of fire suppression.

Several of the ferocious mutants attracted by their companions' screams before death fell in this round of long-range attacks by Carl.

However, a few of them realized the danger and actually hid in the dark and fired crossbows at Carl.

"Ding!"

A broken crossbow arrow hit Carl's power armor. Because the arrowhead was rotten and it was shot at a high altitude, the arrow was directly bounced out by the power armor.

"Wow! Good guy, this can hit me? These guys don't look that simple! Don't they have professions?"

Although the ferocious mutants generally have only 8 intelligence attributes, they can indeed obtain professions.

But they are generally warriors, wanderers, etc.

But there is a kind of rugged mutant transformed from the earth elves that is different. They can even practice to become monks.

Seeing that the enemy actually launched a counterattack against him and hit him, Carl did not dare to continue to be arrogant, but relied on the arrow tower wall that was only more than two meters high to shrink his body.

He has not forgotten the defense of his power armor.

To put it bluntly, it is just a layer of iron on the exoskeleton support.

"If only I had a magic missile wand, I could kill at least one person with one magic."

The main attack power of the artificer is concentrated on magic props, among which the magic wand plays a particularly prominent role.

When Eberron's civilization was still in the Middle Ages, magic wands usually only had 7 or 8 charges, and they had to wait for a recharge after they were used up.

But with the optimization of successive artificers, Eberron's current magic wands have a maximum of 50 charges.

And the artificer can also perform emergency recharge on the magic wand.
