MTL - Summoning the Holy Sword-Chapter 20 Secrets of the Misty Ruins
Magic condensation?
Rhodes was really surprised. To know that he had been playing the Swordsman for seven years. He had seen all kinds of strange conditions, but he had never seen such strange conditions.
The so-called magic condensate refers to some summoning elves who have cooperated with their holders for a long time. During the evolution process, they will "bred" something. According to the game, because they evolve too fast, causing excessive magic. Condensation in it will eventually turn into magic condensate-in other words, equipment.
But it is more convenient for players to say that the summoning spirits who have a high degree of favor with themselves will give them a surprise after evolution ... nothing more.
But this is not an enviable thing. Firstly, the level of the equipment given by the summoning elves is not high. Secondly, these equipment are all illusionary products. They are only used by the summoner alone. If they are discarded, they will be turned into nothingness It can't be sold or given away, so it's half a chicken rib.
Rhodes wasn't surprised to summon the elves to produce magical condensation. After all, this holy sword has been following him until now, but what surprised him is that it shouldn't be holy sword as equipment?
Generally speaking, only creatures with self-will will have the surname of magical condensation?
How is this going?
The holy sword is not a creature.
However, Rhode's sacrifice was only a moment's work, so this system prompt did not let him confirm it at all, just told him that it was all that, and nothing more. So the golden text quickly dissipated from Rhode's eyes and disappeared. Subsequently, the card that had originally floated in his palm returned to nothingness.
Lijie and Metz glanced at each other, but they said nothing. They don't really know who Rhode is, nor do they know who he is. Although he looks like a swordsman, everything he does except swordplay is difficult to hook into the swordsman profession. However, neither of them asked much. As an adventurer, Li Jie naturally knew that many swordsmen had their own unique strength and heritage. And Metz is more certain that Rhodes is likely to be the heir of an ancient family, and only they will have this extraordinary existence.
Although he noticed their eyes, Rhodes didn't explain too much. As the head of a guild, he knew very well that he didn't need to say more and did not need to do less. You must know that those players on the Internet are fascinating and fierce. If you use a word or a word incorrectly, it may be used by the other party to borrow money. Especially, later, Rhodes has achieved the first guild and made a big move. His words One line is not used by many enemies. The more vulnerabilities you explain, the more you will simply say nothing and let them misunderstand. He just retrieved the cards and started sorting out other items.
Masters are quite rich.
In the church, Lie and Metz found more than just the statue that controlled the gargoyle, but also a small pile of gems and crystals that had lost magic. These were all left by Rhodes. As a part-time alchemist, these things are still useful for him.
What surprised Rhodes a little was a note that Li Jie found on the desk. What was recorded above was the life of the mage after he came to this town.
This caused Rhodes to be intrigued. Although as a player, he can understand the cause and effect of the entire copy of the misty ruins, but it is the first time from the perspective of npc.
Although most of the contents of the notebook have become obscure, some records remain:
Year of the Holy One, the fifth month of thunder
I succeeded. At the cost of countless innocent surnames, I finally saw her shadow clearly. In the middle of the circle, she smiled at me like a gentle smile when she was alive. I couldn't even excite myself, I called her name, but she couldn't hear my response. The spell is not complete, but I already have hope, my idea is correct!
Year of the Holy One
Praise the Holy Spirit! I finally got her back, and I got enough power to resist everything! Bringing the dead soul back to me, she saw me! I was able to touch her and feel her warm body, she hugged me and called my name softly. At that moment, I felt that everything I did was worth it. Ah ... my favorite Hina, she is still as gentle, beautiful, and considerate as she is alive.
I was ambivalent, but I finally made up my mind to confess to her, I told her what I did, but Hina forgave me. As before, she smiled and forgave me. At that moment, I felt that life was so beautiful, even the sunshine outside was so bright. I have decided that I will take her out of here, we will lead the lives of ordinary people, and live like ordinary people. I will no longer be exposed to these evil spells, nor will I use spells anymore. We will move to a quiet mountain village, marry there, have children, and die like ordinary people.
I don't know if I am still qualified to get such happiness, but I will strive hard, and may the Holy Spirit bless me.
The year of the saint, the third month of blasphemy
Something is wrong.
That's not Hina. I feel that way. Although she looks exactly the same as I remember, I feel it. That was not her. I told her my plan, but she just smiled, said yes, agreed. It's weird. She's a smart girl, but she's also an opinionated girl. She can't listen to me at all.
I have some doubts, is there something wrong with the spell?
Why is she so convinced of my words?
I'm going to do another test to confirm that my thoughts are correct, and the Holy Spirit is blessed. I hope my thoughts are wrong.
The year of the saint, the fourth day of blasphemy
The Holy Spirit is on, why is this happening!
That's not Hina! She is just a monster with a Hina shell! I told her that I would kill people, old people, children, women for her. I need her more than a woman, I want more women to accompany me. If this is really her, then she will never agree. However, to my surprise, she was sitting quietly beside the bed, smiling and listening to everything I said, and then said kindly to me.
This is impossible! This is not her! This is not the person I remember! What exactly is she? What is it? What is it? (Handwriting starts to get messy).
Year of the Holy One, Nine Months of Blasphemy
May the Holy Spirit forgive my ignorance.
This may be my punishment for breaking the law, I want to reverse life and death and regain the soul that has passed away. But I failed, and that was punishment. That thing is not Hina, it has no ego at all, it is just an empty body, a monster that instinctively prints and explores the spiritual images deep inside others to survive. I want to kill it, but I can't do it anymore, it **** all my power ... I'm going to die, I have no power to stop it.
That's fine ... Hina, since you can't come to my side, let me go to the eternal dark river to find you ...
May the Holy Spirit accept my sinful soul ...
The note was written here, all that remained was a blank. Rhode closed his diary and then shook his head. It seemed that the mage was a sage of love, as the rumor said ... but if he chooses to commit suicide sooner, he probably won't die so many people. but…………
A tiny sense of incongruity flashed through Rhodes's head, and before he could catch it, he passed away.
Seems something wrong?
Rhodes frowned, thinking for a long time, but eventually got no answer. However, he quickly put the matter behind his head, closed his eyes, and soon fell into deep sleep.
This was just a small episode, and the three of them took a rest in the abandoned church one night, and then set off again the next day, walking towards the depths of the mist.
"Oh!"
The dazzling white light flickered by, followed by a ghostly figure that disappeared with the wail.
Compared with the previous, the evolved star marks are more beautiful. The white and immaculate sword blade is carved with beautiful and delicate hollow patterns. The original white snow wings are slightly expanded, and the white silver thread hovering from them turns into cage hands surrounding the sword. Above the handle, if you just look at it, you will not think it is a weapon, but an exquisite work of art. It should not appear on the battlefield. On the contrary, places such as art galleries or treasure chests are the real thing. Of belonging.
"It's an incredible masterpiece."
Looking at the faint light dusty sword in Rhodes, Metz couldn't help sighing.
"Excuse me, Mr. Rhodes, I have been in the Chamber of Commerce for so many years and have never seen such a beautiful weapon ..."
Speaking of this, Mays narrowed his eyes.
"I don't know, you ..."
Rhodes waved his hands, but did not mean to answer Mays's question. He just stared at the front, then answered in a deep voice.
"We're almost there."
"Hey?"
After hearing this, Metz and Lijie both hurriedly looked up and looked forward along Rhode's eyes. Soon, they saw a overgrown square, and on the other side of the square, two A huge, broken wooden door was looming under the mist.
"Just going through this door, we can reach the Aragak Pass, and then we can go down."
Speaking of which, Rhodes is also relieved. After all, since he woke up in this world, his spirit has been in a high level of tension. Although adventure is a very happy thing for players, if he is seriously injured and full of Under pressure, even players are not so happy.
What's more, this is not a game. You can't go offline to smoke, drink, or play mahjong.
But before that, there is another obstacle to pass.
Rhodes frowned, watching the dense fog in front of him carefully. He waved his hand and motioned for the two behind him to be careful.
"Any questions? Mr. Rhodes?"
Seeing Rhode's gesture, Li Jie quickly reacted, she took a small step closer to Rhode, and then whispered.
"Be careful, the battle is not over yet, we have one of the most troublesome bosses yet."
"Boss?"
"Uh ... I mean a monster."
Rhodes shook his head. He was really used to the habit of giving orders in the game, and he couldn't really change it for a while. But obviously it wasn't when he noticed such a trivial matter, he took a deep breath, then turned his head and looked at the two of them.
"Do you know the origin of the misty ruins?"
Hearing Rhode's inquiry, both were stunned, then shook his head.
"It used to be a bustling town, but after the tidal waterway opened, it gradually became deserted-after that, a mage came here, and in order to find the dead lover, he performed taboo magic here. The experiment, in the end, he failed. "
Having said that, Rhode stopped for a moment, then looked towards the surrounding misty town.
"And after that, the town became like this."
"Then Mr. Rhode, the monster you said is ..."
Mays frowned. He thought that the two gargoyles were already the most terrible monsters. Is there anything more terrible than that?
"Ghost."
The word spoken from Rhodes was bland, but the weird tone was chilling behind them.
"It was the most terrifying monster born of that mage in the final defeat. If we are not careful, all of us will die here."
"Is it powerful? Mr. Rhodes?"
Although wondering how Rhodes knew it, for Li Jie, the problem at hand was obviously more important. But unexpectedly, Rhodes shook his head.
"Frankly, it is not very strong. It has a weak defense against physical surnames, and is similar to ordinary ghosts."
"that…………"
After hearing Rhode's explanation, Li Jie was a little confused. If all the words were similar, why did Rhodes say that this thing was dangerous?
"Because Ghost has a special skill."
Rhodes hesitated, and finally decided to speak up.
"It will pierce your heart, and then transform into what you are familiar with. If you can't wake up from the nightmare it makes in time and maintain a firm conviction, then there is only a dead end."
When speaking of this, Rhode's tone was not very certain. Because in the game, this boss will only appear after all the adventurous teams have entered the game. It will turn into a player's appearance and then disturb the player's judgment. At the beginning, this is really a very troublesome boss. Many teams have Mission is here. But the method was all people come up with, and soon the players figured out how to deal with it. After many battles, the player found that the power of the ghost is not very strong, and it is not particularly dangerous except to copy the player itself, that is, if only one player enters the battlefield, it can only copy The opponents themselves, such a one-on-one battle is of course unimportant to most players. So, after the ghost's mysterious halo was broken, it became a stake that many players use to practice single brush bosses ... its end is not tragedy.
but…………
Why does it always seem to be contradictory?
Rhodes frowned. He faintly felt a voice in his heart telling him that things were not so simple, but for a moment, it seemed that he couldn't catch any clue.
"All in all, leave it to me."
The mist became denser.
Even the radiance of divine power cannot easily penetrate this sea of clouds and mist.
Rhode stopped.
He could feel the worried eyes of the girls behind him, but this was the most efficient way, and it was the only way.
"Oh!"
The white sharp blade appeared out of thin air, and the clouds seemed to be agitated, and then returned to normal soon. They circled around Rhodes, shutting everything out.
The air became humid and heavy.
coming soon.
Rhode raised his spirit. He moved his fingers subconsciously, and the cold touch from the ring of will worn on the index finger calmed him a lot. He knows the other party well, from ability to surname, from its fighting means to attack distance, Rhodes doesn't think it is difficult ...
Maybe not.
A figure slowly emerged from the fog. With the appearance of it, the surrounding air seemed to become more restless. The flowing mist refracted the erratic figure, which looked very strange. There was a faint aroma in the air, and there was an odd smell in it.
That's the smell of disinfection water.
Rhodes frowned. He thought the taste seemed familiar, but he hadn't waited for him to think about it. The mist in front of it suddenly diffused, revealing the existence inside.
The moment he saw each other, Rhodes stood still. He couldn't believe his eyes wide open, looking at the figure in front of him, his brain was blank and he couldn't say anything. The dusty memory burst out at this moment, echoing fiercely in the heart of Rhodes.
