Casting spells

"Damn! No one knows what his bloodline is, but I think it's either a toad monster or a giant monster. Anyway, there are not many creatures with such a strong recovery ability. Come with me, Ralph, you Come here too." Kars forcibly pulled Zhang Cheng's arm, and waved to the middle-aged white man who was drinking and chatting with his companion not far away.

Hearing his call, the latter hurriedly put down his cup, and followed him with a shotgun engraved with mysterious silver symbols on his back.

The three quickly walked through the back door of the bar and came to a single room with only about ten square meters.

The middle-aged man named Ralph closed the door casually, bowed slightly, and tentatively asked, "Master Witch Doctor, do you have any orders for me?"

"You wait first!" Kars directly put him aside, took out a few photos from his close pocket and threw them on the table. "Zhang, take a look. I'll tell you what the mission is after I'm done."

Zhang Cheng picked up the photo with a puzzled expression on his face. As a result, he was immediately attracted by the person in the photo when he saw it for the first time. At the same time, there was a chilling light in his eyes. where?"

"Ah, it seems that you still remember him, don't you?" Kars spread his hands with a smile. "Don't worry, at present I only know his name is Salas, a werewolf leader who smuggled from Latvia to the United States not long ago, the recent series of attacks on ordinary people, it is very likely that he is behind the scenes. Yours The task is to find him and find out the truth of the matter. In return, I will pay you thirty gold dinars first, and another thirty gold dinars afterwards."

"Okay! I'll accept this task!" Zhang Cheng agreed on the spot without any hesitation.

But he wasn't for Jindinar, but for revenge, to make this bastard who once led his men to chase him for several streets and almost killed himself pay the price.

"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't refuse. Here, here are thirty gold dinars, and I'll arrange some assistants for you at the same time." As he said, Carlos cast his eyes on the standing motionless middle-aged people. "Ralph, the task of you and your teammates is to assist Zhang to find the guy in the photo. As for how to deal with it, it is completely up to him to decide. Regarding this task, I quoted you a million dollars. Do you have any objections?" ?”

"No! No! It is our honor to serve you and Your Majesty the Witch! Besides, I have seen the capabilities of this young Mr. Wizard, and I absolutely dare not think anything wrong." Ralph lowered his head and promised .

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, the same job should get the same pay. Even if there is a difference, it must not be dozens or even hundreds of times different.

But he is very clear that the underground world has never been a place that emphasizes fairness, but a hunting ground that obeys the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest.

Half-blooded demon hunters like them who don't have any special abilities have no chance of earning gold dinars. If they can earn more dollars to improve their lives, they are already very satisfied.

Carlos nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! Let's act, the lady will wait for your reply."

After saying this, he got up and left the room, disappearing into the dark underground passage.

After Carlos walked away, Ralph's tense nerves relaxed a little, and he turned his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Wizard, if you don't mind, can you come back to the bar with me? I need to introduce you Get to know your teammates."

"No problem! But before that, I have a question. What exactly do you guys do? Do you have any special abilities?" Zhang Cheng looked him up and down with slightly curious eyes.

As a mage, he could clearly sense some kind of mysterious energy in the opponent's body. Although it was very meager, it gave off a dangerous feeling.

"Us? We are just a group of demon hunters who are responsible for dealing with unruly monsters, or half-humans. In fact, we are also half-humans, so our abilities are also strange. Take me for example, you can use magic symbols Attach a kind of energy to a cold weapon or a bullet, and when it hits, it will produce a violent explosion, inflicting heavy damage on the enemy." Ralph didn't mean to hide anything, so he said it openly...

Chapter 63 Secrets

"Magic symbol? Attached energy?" Zhang Cheng keenly grasped the two key words.

In fact, in the continent of Azeroth, mages also use various magical symbols to add extra attributes to items.

Even the high elves have invented a pure energy form to create weapons. Among them, the famous "Avenger of the Silver Dawn" and "Tibu's Fiery Long Sword" in the game are outstanding representative works.

Their characteristic is to use the impact of energy eruption to cause fatal burns of different attributes to the enemy.

Although it is not as sharp as metal, its destructive power is much higher than the former, especially for special life forms that have no fixed form, such as elements, shadows, and souls, which can often cause several times the damage of ordinary weapons.

Zhang Cheng hopes to find the common ground of the two worlds through different magic symbols and techniques of attaching energy, or to establish a certain connection.

He always felt that there was some secret hidden behind that mysterious parchment, a secret about why he was thrown into this familiar yet strange world. If he wanted to uncover it, he needed to keep researching and exploring...

Ralph obviously didn't know what was going on in Zhang Cheng's mind, so he pulled out a silver-plated dagger and injected a little energy into it.

moment!

A mysterious energy that can hardly be detected by the naked eye quickly forms a closed loop along the edge through the dozen or so symbols engraved on the surface.

After the energy flow stabilized, he explained with a smile: "Look, this is my ability. Generally speaking, any silver-plated dagger that has been specially treated can inflict damage on dark creatures including werewolves, vampires, ghosts, etc. Great damage, and after my strengthening, the dagger will cause a violent explosion when it penetrates the target's body, just like this..."

The voice just fell!

The middle-aged man swung his dagger and stabbed it hard at the table.

next second...

boom!

Accompanied by the bright flames, a fist-sized hole was blown out of the hardwood table on the spot, and the surrounding carbonized areas were still burning, and the scorching temperature could be clearly felt even a few meters away.

Zhang Cheng stretched out his right hand to gently caress the burning scorched marks, then picked up the dagger that had lost its energy blessing, and soon seemed to understand something, raised his head and asked, "Where did you learn these symbols on the dagger?" Arrived?"

"Uh—you may not believe it, these symbols suddenly came to my mind when I was 14 years old and I was too excited to sleep with my first girlfriend. I have consulted some knowledgeable wizards, but They seem to be unable to recognize the meaning of these symbols, and finally define it as blood inheritance. That is, the special blood I have will store part of the knowledge in the genes and pass it on to future generations. It is said that only those powerful ancient races that have become extinct have it It is possible to do this. Of course, as you can see, I am neither strong nor special now, so I can only rely on this little trick to make a living as a demon hunter."

When talking about these, Ralph revealed a touch of self-mockery in his tone.

After all, in the special profession of a demon hunter, it is not easy for him to barely survive with his physical fitness that is indistinguishable from ordinary people. If he accidentally encounters a stronger monster, he may die unexpectedly.

Zhang Cheng silently watched the mysterious symbols on the surface of the dagger, followed by screening and comparing them with the mysterious symbols used in Azeroth in his mind, and found several similarities in a short while.

First of all, in terms of energy attachment, nearly one-eighth of the symbols are very similar in appearance.

Secondly, he tried to infuse the dagger with arcane energy. Although it failed to form a closed loop in the end, it also resonated to a certain extent.This means that in energy fundamentals, the two worlds have something in common.

Finally, the meager energy stored in Ralph's body, like arcane energy, also has great plasticity, and can simulate many forms.It's just that he himself didn't understand it, and he just chose the violent flame impact based on his subconscious mind.

After figuring this out, Zhang Cheng smiled and shook his head and explained: "No, Ralph, the blood flowing in your body is much stronger than you imagined. Do you know? Energy is a wonderful substance. Everyone has a part of it more or less, but there are very few who can really control it. But you, you can not only store energy in the body, but also control it to form energy release. "

"You mean... I'm special?" Ralph's eyes flashed a frightening light immediately.

"Hehe, that's right, you are very special, and you even have some kind of potential. If you want, you can come to the place where I live and help me do a little research. In return, I will teach you how to control energy. Let it have more changes, such as... Frost!"

After all, Zhang Cheng's right hand suddenly released a sheet of white freezing air, completely freezing the table that was still emitting sparks.

Just over half a month of research and practice, although not enough for him to improve his mage level, but the control of energy has become more and more handy.

"Can I also have such abilities?!" Ralph stared at the frozen wooden table dumbfounded.

Zhang Cheng nodded without thinking: "Yes! How about it, do you want to cooperate with my research?"

"Do you need to ask? Of course I agree! Thank you, young Mr. Wizard, you gave me a new hope." Ralph responded excitedly.

He could feel that his originally calm heart was agitated again, longing for something called power.

After all, in the underground world, power means power, wealth, and almost everything.

"Very good! Then we've made a deal! Now, take me to meet your teammates. Maybe some of them will have abilities that I'm interested in."

After getting the answer he wanted, the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth turned up slightly, flashing a hint of imperceptible playfulness.

The other party will never know how dangerous his research will be, let alone how terrifying the result will be.

"Hahahaha! Please come with me! I believe they will scramble to express themselves in order to win your favor. Oh, by the way, do you have any instructions for this mission?" Ralph pushed open the door Leading the way ahead, the general asked enthusiastically.

"No, it's nothing. I don't have much experience in tracking. It's fine for you to take care of it. I'm only responsible for solving the guy in the photo. We have a bill to settle." Zhang Cheng glanced down. With the photo in his hand, there was a chilling light in his eyes.
