Hero’s Creed

　　 If you take a horse-drawn carriage, Crow Ridge is about a day and a half away from Chenwu Town. It is said that it was once a royal tomb group of a certain kingdom ten thousand years ago.

　　 This rumor has attracted a lot of adventurers, but no one has found the treasure from it, and became rich overnight, but instead became a ghoul lunch.

　　Two thousand years ago, the Orc Southern Army and the troll tribe that came out of the dragon hills joined forces to invade Dranko. As a result, in the Western Realm, the army was defeated by the powerful King Dranko VI.

　　 In this campaign, the total number of soldiers killed on both sides exceeded one million, and the bodies were covered with Sequoia County, and the flowing blood turned the land into a quagmire.

　　The souls of the dead are not scattered, hovering in the sky all day long. For several months in a row, residents of the West Border have not seen Tianyang.

In order to avoid the plague after World War VI, the soldiers conquered the corpses, and all were thrown to Crow Ridge. They were also burned at first. However, there were countless corpses. As the king left, the generals began to cope passively, and the corpses were rushed. Dealed with the matter.

　　 There are too many dead people. There are some souls that have not died down. After walking through the endless years, they gradually evolved into undead creatures after gradually absorbing magic energy.

　　For the safety of the residents at the border, the king once sent paladins and priests to conquer Crow Ridge until they could not pose a threat, but even then, people still avoided the Crow Ridge as a viper and never took a step.

　　 "kerosene lamp, candles, fishing line, five days of food, water..." Downton counted the items needed for the expedition. After confirming that they were correct, they packed them into a leather backpack.

　　 "You also need first-aid potions, excellent weapons, and if you have a magic jewelry to defend yourself, it would be even better!"

　　Although he had made preparations carefully, but looking at the shabby clothes, Downton still sighed. He was too poor to afford.

　　 "Perhaps this expedition was a wrong decision."

Downton sat down at the round table under the window. With a slightly dim light of kerosene lamp, he picked up the quill pen, dipped in ink, and listed the precautions of this trip on the paper. No matter how it was calculated, the danger was higher than Sixty percent.

　　 Moonlight is like water, sprinkled on the skin, slightly cool.

　　 "Should quit!"

　　 This idea just came into my mind and was thrown away by Downton. Without a postman job, he needed a new source of salary, otherwise he would not be able to make up for his sister's tuition.

　　 In order to get rid of misunderstandings, Downton opened the newly purchased code, the beautiful texts, and the fourteen lines of lyric poems about legal stories, which made people happy, and the fluctuating mood gradually calmed down.

　　 "If you become a magician, the risk factor will be much lower!"

　　 Downton's elbow leaned on the round table, with one hand holding his chin, looking at the bright starry sky, full of longing for the future.

　　If you enter the soul level, let alone the talent ability, you can practice powerful martial arts and magic, you can improve your own strength, to the point where ten people are cut, and 100 people are cut.

　　 Watching the starry night, enjoying the warm water like moonlight, calming Downton's state of mind and unconsciously entering the state of meditation.

　　If you want to draw the magic energy, you must enter the state of meditation. The average person is impetuous and cranky, and can't calm down at all. Although it can be entered occasionally, the magic energy required for the promotion is too large. This is a rare number of times.

　　 The depth of the state of meditation determines the speed at which magic energy is drawn. Downton is now practicing the idea of ​​the vortex meditation taught by his sister.

　　 Usually Downton can only enter shallow meditation, but now, he actually broke through the boundaries and entered the middle meditation state.

　　Under the bright moonlight, the magical energy in the hut is like a forest stream, which gathers more and more quickly and penetrates into Downton's body.

　　 The concentration of magical energy becomes larger, and even occasionally flashes star-like spots.

　　 Downton is like a vortex, greedily drawing magic energy.

Downton, who was in a state of meditation, did not notice that the codex was resonated by the waves of the soul, and three mottled light spots overflowed on the pages, like fireflies, exuding a warm light. They were like magnets, drawing more magic from the surroundings. can.

　　Bang, bang, bang, the sudden loud knock on the door shocked Downton, and exited the state of meditation. His right hand flicked, and the quill pen was holding an ink mark on the page.

"what's up?"

　　Looking at the ink that cut through the sonnet, like an ugly scar lying on the beauty's face, Downton was distressed to death.

　　 "What are you doing? It's half an hour late. If it weren't for my pleading, Robinson set off early." Du Lun was puzzled. Downton has always been punctual and will never make such a mistake.

　　 "What?" Downton looked at the old mechanical clock placed on the table. He remembered to sort out the items, it was more than nine o'clock, but now, it is already 12:30 in the morning.

　　 "Impossible, I actually meditated for more than three hours?"

Downton was shocked, and he even forgot to open the door for Durham. In the past meditation, he insisted on forty minutes at most, and then he would withdraw his disorderly mood, but this is among the top ten among the young people in Chenwu Town, but now , Actually extended by nearly eight times.

The extension of the meditation time is not a simple addition, because after the mage can resonate with the fluctuation of the magic energy through the meditation, it takes time for the magic energy to gather from all around, so as the meditation time goes on, the magic energy drawn in a unit time is constant Increased.

　　 Of course, there is an upper limit of concentration, which will not change after saturation.

　　 "Open the door, are you okay?"

　　 "It's okay!" Downton got up and walked a few steps, and found that he was full of energy, full of energy, and seemed to have endless strength.

　　 opened the door and let Durham come in. Downton turned around and walked to the window pensively. He wanted to grasp this wonderful feeling and figure out the reason for the extension of meditation.

　　 Du Lun wanted to complain, but when he saw Downton's expression, he closed his mouth immediately, knowing that his friend must be thinking about important things.

　　 "What's the reason? Appreciate poetry, look at the starry sky..." Downton recalled the details before meditation and looked at the code. There was no bit of magic energy fluctuation on it. It should not be magic equipment.

　　 "Are you all right? Robinson must be anxious!" Du Lun looked at the clock and couldn't help it.

"Sorry, let's go." Downton inserted the quill pen into the ink bottle, just about to close the code, and suddenly stunned. The ugly ink mark that was accidentally scratched away just disappeared, like it never appeared. Ever.

　　 "What's the matter?" Durham raised Downton's rucksack. "Come on, Robinson can't wait."

　　 "Hmm!" Downton took the dagger, inserted it in the boot, and walked out of the room, but when locking the door, he couldn't help glancing at the code.

　　 "No, I have to figure it out as soon as possible!" Downton ran back and tucked the Grimoire and the ink bottle into his rucksack.

　　 Downton and Durham ran to the south street of Chenwu Town, before they had time to apologize. A young man with pimples covering his face was a stink.

　　 "You guys are uncles, let us wait so long?"

　　 "Sorry, it's my fault." Downton didn't argue.

　　 "Forget it, it's not too early, let's get in the car, let's go!" Robinson stopped Tony, who would still scold, and urged everyone.

　　 parked next to a carriage pulled by two Orleans highland horses. The roof of the carriage was filled with supplies and tied by thick ropes.

　　 "Master, get in the car!" Kiel opened the door, bent slightly, and asked Robinson to board the car respectfully.

This slightly hunched middle-aged man was Robinson’s servant and coachman. In addition, there was a tall and powerful man, Pire, carrying a Viking Epee, and raised his hand to the foot, showing a kind of tough guy. breath.

　　 "Why are you here?" Downton saw that Will was there, somewhat stunned.

　　 "I want to earn extra money!"

　　According to Ballmer's character, Will knew that he would be expelled, so he considered one afternoon, in the evening, he found Robinson and asked to join the group.

　　If you perform better, maybe you can continue to follow Robinson. After all, he is a famous young businessman in Chenwu Town, and many young people struggle with his goal.

　　 "Don't talk nonsense, get in the car!" Tony dug his nostrils and shoved Will.

　　 The night wind blew, and in the crisp sound of horseshoes, the carriage drove out of the town and embarked on the road to Crow Ridge.

　　 "Robinson, you are really dead to make a fortune, and Crow Ridge dare to go!" Tony is a babble, chewing on a smoked sausage, with ambiguous ridicule.

　　 "No way, there is no free lunch in this world. If you want to make a fortune, you can take risks!" Robinson closed his eyes and rested.

Millions of corpses and thousands of years of time have allowed Crow Ridge to form a deadly ecological environment, which is very suitable for undead creatures and plants to inhabit. Some of these animals and plants are materials for making various magic potions. , Can earn a lot of money.

　　Every year, some adventurers who are not afraid of death enter Crow Ridge, but most of them have bad luck and become a ghoul lunch.

　　 "What do you do with the burden of these two non-magic?" Tor sneered Downton, his mouth covered with flesh.

　　 "You have to give young people who have dreams a chance!" Robinson grinned, revealing his white teeth, and the sun was so bright that he couldn't help feeling loud.

　　 "Thank you, boss!" Will was grateful to die and began to change his tongue.

　　Robinson nodded, but there was a deep sigh in his heart. With these two people, he was actually used as a bait.

Even the first-level soul psychic is physically better than ordinary soldiers who have been trained for a long time, so once they encounter a dangerous escape, these two teenagers must fall behind the team. Naturally, it will attract the eyes of the ghouls that come after.

Downton did not eagerly observe the companions in the carriage, and there was still a day away. Some of them were time. After all, everyone is just contacting and watching each other, and their vigilance is also maintained at the highest level. Unhappiness leads to conflicts, and Downton has more important things to do.

　　 After lighting a candle, Downton took out the code and looked at it.

　　Robinson glanced away and lost interest. As an experienced businessman, his vision was very venomous. The book had no magical fluctuations, and was very ordinary.

　　 turned aside carefully, and found nothing strange. Downton hesitated and took out the quill pen. After dipping the ink, he drew a stroke in the blank space at the top of the book page.

　　 Full ten minutes without any change!

　　 Downton frowned, this time casually wrote a few words.

　　 A little time has passed, and nothing has changed. Downton began to doubt his judgment.

　　 "Don't I guess wrong?" Downton wanted to give up, but he was not reconciled. If he found a way to extend his meditation time, he could quickly enter the soul stage.

"try again!"

　　 Downton was so cruel, this time he was going to write a few more words, so he began to write a lyric of Shakespeare.

　　 "Women, you are enough, write again, I am going to get angry!"

　　 On the page, a line of elegant and chic font suddenly appeared and broke into Downton's sight.
