Twenty Sided Dice

"Two pieces of cheese and a roast lamb? Your father-in-law's tribe is not very wealthy." Evan teased Moore while nibbling on a leg of lamb.

Mor pretended not to hear and continued to clean up the camp with the guards. He already knew Evan's identity, and although Siegel said that he didn't need to pay too much attention to his daily interactions, he still seemed nervous.

No matter what, it was His Majesty the King.

Aaron, who was sitting on the throne, was trained as a prince in the past, and he has a good reputation among nobles and folks. However, according to the laws of the Star Kingdom, only the firstborn has the right to inherit. Although Evan was an illegitimate child, he was finally recognized by the king, had restored his surname, and was older than Aaron. So in the minds of many people, Evan is the one who should sit on the throne.

It's no big deal to be said a couple of times by the king, and he's telling the truth. The living standards of the people on this grassland are not high, and the better ones are just getting their food and clothing. It is not because of the natural environment here, nor because the people here are lazy, but all kinds of strange monsters wandering around, which are difficult to deal with with the power of the tribe.

When Moore ran the starting point outpost, he paid great attention to gathering intelligence, which was a good habit he learned from his grandfather Faizac. According to the legends of the inhabitants of the grasslands, the further west you go, the more terrifying the monsters will appear, and the more frequent they will appear. Blood-sucking mosquitoes the size of hounds swarmed the sky, and giant earthworms that devoured people lurked underground. Many villages may be destroyed overnight, and the only thing they can do is to dedicate more to the **** of the wilderness and heed the warnings of the oracle.

The outpost of the starting point is close to the city wall mountain range, except for the shadow leopard and black bear in the mountain, there are no powerful monsters. Moore is very grateful for this, but he is also curious about those legendary monsters and wants to know whether it is true or not. Are the people who came to him telling the story warning him, scare him, or simply trying to get a bounty?

He only believed in Nata. She said that she had never seen the legendary monster with her own eyes, and the closest evidence was the skeleton of the monster who was killed. "A huge lava python, the kind that breathes fire, can swallow the tent and the people inside after opening its mouth. It cooks the people in its mouth, and then slowly digests it." She said herself Only saw huge skulls. Other parts are still hearsay.

Nata told him about things on the grassland, and Moore told him anecdotes in the city. The two gradually developed feelings for each other, and naturally they achieved good things. Now just need to beat the competition. You can marry her home and stay together every day.

But he's not as confident as Siegel and Evan, he's not a magician or a king. The martial arts he learned from Siegel, Leah, and others made him a qualified knight, but he was far from being a great warrior. His comprehensive ability is indeed good, including army organization, castle construction, territory management and so on. But this is useless in a simple martial arts tournament.

He had told Nata at the time that the jousting was definitely a bad idea, but the girl obviously didn't think so. "Only the strong is the only last word, you must win!"

This is a kind of willful behavior, but if you can't even be willful, how can there be freedom? Reason sometimes has to give way to passion, even with deep regret later. But Siegel was always encouraging him: "Just do your best and don't waste your energy on rambling."

After saying this, Siegel used teleportation to return to Heimland.

This is not the first time he has used the teleportation formation of the elf saint. But it was the first time trying to cross the forbidden rune formation of the City Wall Mountains. Siegel has done experiments. If he does not use this magic circle and simply relies on his own power to open the teleportation channel to cross the city wall and mountains, the magic can only last for a few seconds, which is not enough for him to pass. The Forbidden Rune Array would interfere with the teleportation, possibly causing Siegel to get lost in the void.

This is also related to the characteristics of Siegel's teleportation technique. Many mages teleport by forming a beam of light, wrapping the caster in it and throwing it directly at the destination. Siegel opened an elemental vortex door, connected to the destination, and then walked over by himself. I heard that other mages also elementalize themselves and reorganize them when they arrive at their destination. Each of these methods has pros and cons. The disadvantage of the Siegel portal is that it must maintain a stable transmission channel for a period of time.

The Forbidden Rune Array has the greatest impact on the lasting effect, and the teleportation array of the Elf Saint arrives instantly, so Siegel can go back and forth. He returned to Myr City and didn't disturb too many people. Just took some magic equipment and materials. Use the teleportation array's precise return ability to return to the Rhino tribe.

At this time, the fifteen robbers had all died under Evan's sword.

"These people tried to steal our things and drew their weapons in front of me," Evan explained while searching for the body of the deceased. He collected the money, kept half for himself and gave half to Siegel.

"Let's do it. You give me all the loot as the cost of making magic weapons." Siegel said: "Next time you encounter this kind of thing, subdue them and leave it to Maul to deal with him, he is the lord of the starting point outpost. , only he has referee power in the team."

"It's boring for you to talk like this." Evan made a big gesture and pushed everything in front of Siegel. "Look, it's all for you."

Siegel nodded, summoned the unearthed element first, cleaned up the corpse, and then removed all the grass from the entire camp, revealing the soft soil. Then he cast a spell that turns mud into stone, creating a hard and flat slate floor, so that the magic circle can be portrayed.

Smelting weapons requires fire, crafting sophisticated weapons requires a blacksmith to master the use of water, and making magic weapons requires understanding the power of all four elements. Siegel skipped the step of making weapon embryos and directly painted the elemental array on the ground, forming a "melting pot" of the four elements of earth, water, wind and fire.

And in the middle of the four furnaces is a tiny magic circle, only the size of a fist, just enough to put down the crystal column. Siegel had finished sculpting the circle on it, just to try it out.

The soldiers in Heimland knew the rules, not to approach when the lord was preparing magic, and at the same time to help maintain order and avoid being disturbed, but Evan was obviously not included. He folded his arms and turned his head to the side, watching with interest.

"Your crystal column is not designed for making magic weapons? How can it be used?" He asked strangely.

"You're right, it was made for the magic circle in my territory, but that doesn't mean it can't be used to make magic weapons for you." Siegel carefully checked the lines of the magic circle he drew to avoid any mistakes. "The common magic circle is big and stupid, but if you understand it patiently, there are many places that are very repetitive. Everyone makes the magic circle as complete as possible. Spreading all the functions makes the magic circle a cumbersome piece of work. Things. I have an idea to use spar to make a three-dimensional core for specific functions, and focus on dealing with this repetitive demand. This saves the time consumption over and over again. It can also reduce the error rate. "

Evan pouted: "I shouldn't have asked you, I don't understand at all."

"Anyway, this is a new method, and I'm not sure whether it will work or not." Siegel wiped his sweat and replied with a smile: "I have a new idea, and I won't be reconciled if I don't try it."

"I understand this. It's like I suddenly came up with some ways to use the sword. It will be uncomfortable if you don't practice." Evan said: "How long do you have to prepare, do you know that there are already many people watching? Since you summoned the unearthed element, this place has become the focus of attention. Did you plan to do so?"

"Yes, and no," Siegel said, "but now is not the time to be concerned about it. I'm going to experiment with your longsword soon, and I can't guarantee that there will be no accident. If you care about your weapon, you might as well do it now. Start praying."

Evan stepped back slightly to make way for Siegel. He said, "Prayers are useless. No **** has ever answered me. Even the priest of the Church of the Morning Sun doesn't know the reason. They returned the I made a name for someone who is not blessed by God, so they don't support me on the throne. But it's okay not to be blessed, after all, I'm not cursed, right?"

Siegel froze for a moment. It turned out that Evan, like himself, had no results no matter how much he prayed. He also asked the elf saint about this matter, but could not get any answer. Could this have something to do with the dice? After all, the biggest thing in common between myself and Evan is the dice.

The elf saint once mentioned the "agreement between gods", but he didn't know what was in it. Some gods respect order, while others only act according to their own moods. It must be a great thing to be able to make all gods reject prayers and make agreements. Siegel holds the dice. 'Why did this happen to me? ’

It was getting dark and it was time to prepare dinner. If the work in front of them is not completed, I am afraid that the soldiers will not be able to work and rest normally. Siegel took a deep breath and told everyone to back away. He sprinkled the casting material powder in the magic circle. Start chanting the mantra.

The air vibrated, and an invisible force pushed the surrounding people away, and the slate floor trembled. Siegel's eyebrows twitched, his gesture turned, and he accentuated a few syllables in the incantation. The vibrations subsided, the power of magic tamed.

The spell follows the spell. A voice higher than a voice. The syllables, advancing like waves, resonate with the elements, lighting up the four furnaces in sequence. The four elements of earth, water, wind and fire cause different outliers, and Siegel now needs to be distracted in four ways in order to maintain the balance between the elements.

But then it won't be so troublesome.

He activated the central red crystal column with a spell, connecting the four elemental furnaces. By engraving the circle on the crystal column, Siegel began to construct simple elemental circulation and control. This is not Myr City, and there is no elemental rune array to condense energy, so the concentration of the four elements is not high, which is easy to control. A crystal column can easily complete the work of storing elements and condensing.

He controlled the spell to make constant adjustments, allowing the crystal column to take over control. In this way, he only needs to concentrate on operating the crystal column, and does not need to be distracted by managing the four element furnaces.

The universal energy system that Siegel is most familiar with is the Plasma Rune Array of Nexus, so bluish-white lightning is constantly emitting from the crystal column. The mage took out the "bonfire" and hung it on the crystal column. He put his four fingers together, constantly rubbing the blade of the sword. Every time I wipe it hard, UU read www.uukanshu. com lightning strikes the blade, carving into the spell Siegel chanted.

This is similar to the assembly line principle of Nykos, except that the masters use the technology of plasma fusion, and Siegel uses the power of the four elements.

As it was repeated over and over, the blade had become red as if it had been reforged. However, it was not caused by high heat, but a magical reaction formed by the mage constantly pressing the spell into the blade. Siegel poured the incantation and sprinkled precious magic materials on the sword. After all, "Bonfire" is an ordinary long sword that is about to shatter, and its material also needs to be improved. Alchemy of silver, pure gold, obsidian shavings, and keel powder, Siegel is not shy about making fine products, especially weapons for good friends.

No one has ever made magic weapons like this, and even Evan was stunned. The people around the camp were silent, their eyes widened. They couldn't understand Siegel's train of thought at all, but they felt that his every movement had a strange beauty and mysterious demeanor, which was really amazing. Standing in the middle of the four elements, the young man who controls the lightning seems to have left the mortal class, like the incarnation of a god.

The long sword hummed, and some could not bear the layers of magic power, and began to show signs of gradual collapse. ‘Sure enough, the material is too ordinary? ' Siegel frowned, he didn't want to see all his successes go to waste. (To be continued.)
