Necromancer cutting down trees

Chapter 14 His Banner
[Clear the threats around the shelter (1/1)]

The three lemurs lay flat in front of Wang Yue, and he saw the spoils without deliberately searching.

That is the copper ring on the elongated ears of the lemures, and it is also the source of their magic power.

[Evil Devil Earrings: Earrings Condensing Demon Qi]

[Effect: Maximum Mana +10]

The copper ring is of white quality, Wang Yue's maximum mana at level 6 is only 60 points, and the extra 10 points of mana are not enough for him to cast [Dead Soul Summoning] once.

"How can a big man wear earrings? It's not worth the mana."

Wang Yue justly put the equipment back into the package.

This time I got three pairs of [Evil Earrings]. Although I don't need them myself, the price of the equipment sold to merchants will be much higher than the materials.

"I didn't expect a lot of things to explode this time."

In addition to equipment, lemures also drop white quality materials.

[Evil fur: the fur that falls from the lemur, it still has a little warmth]

Fur materials can be processed by [Leathersmith], as long as the quantity is sufficient, they can be processed into armor.

[Evil Demon Crystal: Essence of Devil Qi, a delicious raw material that does not need to be processed]

It looks like an ore, but it is actually a raw material.

There are three copies of each material. Although Wang Yue does not have the ability to handle the materials, he can hand them over to suitable NPCs for help, just like the [Dead Chef] I saw before.

"There is no blame for the time being, and the task is half completed."

The task issued by the boatswain still left the part of building fortifications. The hard-working skeletons will complete this part of the task for the necromancer, so Wang Yue doesn't need to go back in a hurry.

"I remember there is another mission coming?"

Wang Yue remembered that [Captain Peter] asked him to retrieve the flag of the Breaker for him, and while the powerful thugs were following him, he planned to do this task by the way.

"Xiao Nuo, search for mission props."

"Inquiring... Please check the location of the item through the evil spirit map."

Under the guidance of the game system, Wang Yue opened the parchment and saw a glowing golden dot nearby. Unfortunately, the dot was too big on the map, so he could only confirm that the item was in the ruins.

"There are no other monsters shown on the map, you can now find them safely..."

Wang Yue glanced at the ruins, he could only see the prompt of [heavy stone] on the interface, it seems that the flag should be hidden under the stone.

Small stones are fine, but large stones take half as much energy to move.

Every time Wang Yue moved a boulder, he needed to rest for a long time, but there were only stone bricks under the boulder as the ground, not even bugs and weeds.

"Is there really a flag in this place? The map is not lying to me, is it?"

After using ten tubes of stamina back and forth, Wang Yue gave up on the large-scale search.

He climbed up the pile of rubble, spread out the map and thought hard.

"Maybe it should be on the dot, I'll have to try the very center."

The central location is also the center of the teleportation, where the protruding platform is, and the place with the least amount of debris.

"The system doesn't display the props, could it be because it's too far away?"

Getting closer and kicking away the stones on the ground, Wang Yue saw the words carved in the magic circle of the teleportation center.

【Great demon lord, we need your kindness and sacrifice】

[The day of the full moon has arrived, and the hypocritical gods are hiding in the cabinet]

[The instrument of the moon wheel has taken away the eyes of the black fish, and the rules will be broken by outsiders]

[The war is about to end, chaos and evil will be swept away]

In the center of the magic circle is an obscure and complicated image, which can only be seen roughly as the head of a certain goat.

"At least a seventh-order magic circle. This Xiaonuo! Why is the Novice Village arranged for me so fierce?"

The higher the level of the spell, the more complicated it is. The biggest difference between the seventh-level magic circle is that there are more words.

However, if the player wants to cast such a spell, it will not be so troublesome. The system considerately provides the automatic engraving function for the "Zhang Yu" player. As long as the conditions are met, the tool for drawing the magic circle can work automatically.

"As long as you don't bother me, even if you destroy the world, it has nothing to do with me."

From the text prompt, it can be seen that it is a magic circle with a summoning function, but Wang Yue's level is too low, and he is too lazy to remember such a complicated pattern for the time being, so he ignores this high-level magic circle.

After clearing all the stones on the platform, Wang Yue didn't see the flag he wanted.

"Just take a little physical effort to increase your knowledge, and that's it for today's work."

Looking up, she saw the bright moon in the sky. Although it was always dark here, Wang Yue felt that it was time to go home and sleep.

Wang Yue jumped off the teleportation platform, but the boatswain who was following him did not move, but continued to stand on the platform.

"Could it be that there is a problem with the path? It's stuck?"

Because you jump directly instead of walking down, some "smart" AI may not be able to interpret the path of the jumping part, which will cause the following guards to get stuck in place.

"Hey, I need to climb again."

So Wang Yue slowly climbed up the teleportation platform from the pile of rubble, but when he returned to [Seaswain], the undead warrior still didn't move.

"It's over, a major bug. Xiao Nuo, help me scan the behavior of this NPC."

"The behavior of the dead boatswain is normal. The target is detected to be performing an event, please be patient."

Wang Yue was taken aback. It turned out that he had caused the NPC to trigger a certain behavior, so he wanted to see what the boatswain was going to do.

The pale-faced warrior raised his harpoon and thrust the weapon into the magic circle under his feet.

"Boom."

After a loud noise, the weapon was broken, but the magic circle remained intact.

"Look, you're hitting a rock with an egg."

Wang Yue spread her hands to express her helplessness. The boatswain's combat power will definitely drop by more than half if she loses her weapon. If she really meets a strong opponent, she will probably be in bad luck.

The warrior didn't let go of the broken harpoon, but instead grabbed the handle and swung it outward.The tip was thrown into the gravel, and there was still something hidden inside the harpoon.

The handle of the fork became a long pole, and the rolled cloth was unfolded at this moment.

[The sail of the Breaker: symbolizing the honor of the Breaker, and everything about the Breaker]

"Look, bosun, this is your flag."

The wood-like sailor was finally moved. He opened his mouth slightly, but the words stuck in his throat.

He stared at the banner under the moonlight, and the harpoon in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

"If you don't want it, I will pick it up?"

The flags on the ground are now ready to be picked up, and Wang Yue happened to pick them up right now and bring them to the captain.

"Where is the enemy?"

The bosun was stunned for a long time, and finally spit out that classic line.

Wang Yuefu expressed helplessness, the undead had been turned into a corpse too badly, and he no longer recognized his own weapon.

"Strange, the flag is clearly on the crew, why did the dog captain let me find it? Can't he go find his crew himself?"

Wang Yue picked up the flag of the Breaking Wave. Although the flag was seriously faded and the text was blurred, the head of the long-haired woman in the center of the sail was still faintly visible.

"Come on, let's go back to your captain."

It's hard to find anything new in the ruins, it's time to return to the 【Shelter】.

Before leaving, Wang Yue looked at the other side of the ruins.

There is a bare red mountain range, and there is nothing on the mountain, but in the direction he came, as long as you focus on the black trees, a reminder of [corrupted woodland] will appear in front of you.

"Is it because my level is not enough? Xiao Nuo, what level is the map of the red mountain over there?"

"Red Ridge Mountains, recommended level 61-70."

"Farewell."

Wang Yue took [Bosun] back the same way. There were no mobs spawned on the way, and no new enemies appeared. Everything went smoothly.

When they returned to the shelter, the full moon above their heads remained unchanged, and the wooden houses of the shelter were still tightly closed.

"This is the limitation of the game map. If there is no update, it will look the same all year round."

Wang Yue couldn't help but sigh with emotion, but his point of view was overheard by the game system immediately.

"After receiving your suggestion, I will add day and night effects in the next update."

After returning to the stronghold of the living dead, the first thing Wang Yue saw was the outermost circle of wooden fences.

"It's amazing my son of a bitch."

【Construction of fortifications (1/1)】

【The task has been completed】

A completed prompt appeared on the interface, and at the same time the boatswain's health bar changed from yellow to green, which meant that Wang Yue had obtained the command of the [Dead Sailor].

"Where is the enemy?"

"Red names are monsters, green names are friends, don't be so cautious."

The living dead looked at Wang Yue with a puzzled expression, he couldn't understand the meaning of what he said just now.

"There are no enemies for the time being, you go back and rest first."

Wang Yue patted [Bosun] on the shoulder, and the captain who got the order left Wang Yue on his own, and went straight back to his cabin.

"Brother Sailor, fortunately, you are here all the way. I will call you next time I have a mission."

Wang Yue expressed her gratitude from the bottom of her heart, and then immediately turned and went to the largest house in the shelter.

He knocked on the wooden door of the captain's house, [Captain Peter] stood inside the door, and he immediately found the flag draped over Wang Yue's body.

The middle-aged man's scruffy beard trembled violently, and his hand that held the compass was also trembling from the force.

"Don't crush my task reward with force."

Wang Yue quickly took off the flag and handed in the mission props.

When he handed over the props, the captain pulled hard, and Wang Yue was dragged into the wooden house before he could let go, and finally fell to the ground.

【Vertigo: If you don't have oranges, you'll just slip and fall on the old captain's boat】

【Duration: 10S】

Wang Yue covered her head, ten Peters suddenly appeared in his eyes, the sound of hitting the ground echoed in his mind, and the tingling feeling lasted for ten seconds before it ended.

"What a strong captain, the passive effect turned out to be dizzy."

After Wang Yue returned to normal, not only did she not hold any grudges, but she also made up her mind to have a good relationship with Peter.

"This is the flag you want."

"Well done, you will always be a friend of the Breaker."

Peter wrapped the sails and put them back into his clothes. He took out the precious compass, and kept his eyes on the pointer of the broken compass.

Wang Yue stretched out her hand to take her reward, but the captain's hand kept shrinking back, showing extreme reluctance.

"Forget it. Xiao Nuo, can I give up the task reward?"

"Okay, you need to have the waiver conversation."

Wang Yue looked at the reluctant captain and decided to try to refuse the reward.

"I wander the world alone, and I don't need a fixed direction."

Although the compass looked like an extremely rare prop, he still gritted his teeth and gave up the gains from this mission.

"After all, it was given to me by the bosun. I didn't do anything along the way. It would be too shameless to ask for another reward."

Wang Yue soothed her own greedy desires, making eye contact with the captain, waiting for his reply.

"That's a pity, my friend."

Peter immediately retracted the compass, so fast that Wang Yue couldn't see clearly, and then the captain returned to the stone and sat down.

He showed a mouth with few teeth left, and Wang Yue could see joy in his cloudy eyes.

"The Breaker has been on the 'Endless Deep Sea' route for 20 years. Before she died, I thought there was no sea area we couldn't conquer."

The captain shook the compass in mid-air, then retracted it.

"Until there was fog on the route leading to 'Cui Bi Port', the compass failed, we were surrounded by a storm, and the Wavebreaker ran aground on an unknown island."

The captain lowered his head and sighed. He made a gesture of drinking, but there was no bottle in his hand.

"Without a compass, my crew would not be able to get out of the 'Redridge Mountains'. If you accept it, maybe you can get out of this ghost place."

One corner of Peter's mouth twitched, letting a beard take over for a smirk.

"what?"

Wang Yue immediately stood up from the ground with an excited expression.

"No, the recommendation level of that map is too high, I will definitely not be able to pass it."

Thinking of this, he quickly calmed down.

And he knew that it was impossible to get back the compass now, because the captain hid the compass in his clothes.

"But you are very wise. At that time, in order to cover the evacuation of enough crew members, my first officer and a wizard sacrificed their lives to hold back the dragon.

If you were the only one, I'm afraid you'd just die halfway up the 'Redridge Mountains'. "

Hearing this, Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, which made him feel much better.

"We were really unlucky that day. We met heretics who were performing rituals as soon as we walked out of the mountains. God knows how this group of people came to this island, but luckily we discovered them first."

"I terminated the ritual of the demons before they were fully summoned, but even if the demons were only half in body, I still did not destroy them."

"After a battle, I used the vitality of all the crew members as a contract, and closed the passage after repelling the demons."

The man showed a wry smile, he took off the leather jacket, and Wang Yue found half of his body was empty.

"When my body is completely swallowed, the contract will be terminated and the passage will be opened again. I think you should understand what this means?"

Before Wang Yue could answer, the captain got dressed and stood up from the bed.

"Even through the 'Redridge Mountains', how can you escape this island without a boat. Enjoy now young man, your time is short."

Peter laughed a few times, and the laughter became smaller and smaller, and finally the old captain returned to his serious expression.

He sat down on the bed again and waved Wang Yue to leave.

"It's a shame, I exchanged props for a story, who knows if it's true."

Wang Yue left with a frustrated face. After he stepped out of the wooden house, the wooden door closed automatically, as if it could be opened easily.

Captain Peter is hopeless, but Wang Yue still has another thigh to rely on.

The Sith on the shoulder has been silent all the time, if it wasn't for the weight of the skull, Wang Yue would have thought he had run away.
