Chapter 231 Report from the Undead 【Two in One】

The Hague Hill, on the mountainside.

Zhong Ming directed Lavinia to set up a temporary field camp.Two tents and a bonfire exist here alone.

The sky has become cloudy, and a mountain rain is coming.Surrounded by silent darkness.

The red moon rising in the sky was exceptionally bright, even if it was covered by dark clouds, it could still emit red rays of light, and the reflected tent was a little red.

"Don't we really need to watch the night?" Lavinia asked, stroking her brown-gray hair before getting into the tent.

Hey~
Zhong Ming held a notebook with a thick leather cover in his left hand. He didn't answer, sighed, and snapped his fingers with his right hand.

The magic stones engraved with runes lit up one by one, and the transparent energy lines were connected together, and the golden energy gathered together to form an inverted transparent bowl-shaped shield.

"My lord's 'Golden Dream' protective magic circle has two functions of energy defense and shock counterattack.

Reference... Forget it, you won't understand even if I say it.

You know, even the seventh-level monsters (third-level) monsters can't break through this defense. "

Zhong Ming turned into his tent and said without looking back.

"Is this the power of a wizard? Is this a spell?" Lavinia looked at Zhong Ming with her beautiful brown and black eyes.

"Well. But I have to correct it. To be precise, this is the magic circle for solidifying spells.

Capote used to be an uncle country anyway, and your Zamora family didn't have any inheritance about wizards? "

Zhong Ming stopped tying the rope at the mouth of the tent, "Why, want to learn?"

Lavinia knew that Zhong Ming still had the titles of "Wizard King" and "Wise Man of God", so she nodded expectantly.

Of course, no one would have guessed that Zhong Ming, who has always shown himself as a powerful wizard, is actually not an official wizard...

Zhong Ming was frantically accumulating runes from various sources such as wizards he had killed before, the inheritance of noble families destroyed, certain collections of the church, etc.

In addition, when he speeds up time to deal with government affairs in the Kingdom of God, he often uses his authority to connect to the mysterious "Ether Origin Sea" and observe the rune rules of the abundant attribute energy in the Ether Origin Sea.

There are some runes that the wizards have already recorded, and there are also many runes that Zhong Ming has never heard of.

At present, Zhong Ming has mastered an astonishing 360 runes of various attributes.

But Zhong Ming made a special discovery.

Runes of certain attributes are extremely versatile, and can often be used in spell model combinations to replace other runes of the same attribute, so as to achieve exactly the same spellcasting effect.

It's like casting the middle-level spell "Storm and Fire". There is a fire rune S1, which Zhong Ming can use to replace the fire rune a in the spell model he originally obtained.

Not only is the casting effect strong but not weak, the power of Fire Rain has also increased by half.

And this fire rune S1 can also replace similar runes in many spell models.

Zhong Ming called this kind of rune a universal rune, or "universal rune".Other runes may be called derivative runes.

Universal runes can achieve stronger spellcasting effects, while derivative runes cost less to cast spells.

After screening, he had a vague guess:

Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Light, Darkness, Ice, Thunder, Nature (wood) and gold that you promote, these ten attribute runes, there should be 220 common runes for each attribute!
Because of the calculation results of the notes in Zhong Ming's hands that are more than twice as thick as the bricks, and the hundreds of notes that were put away.

He used the exhaustive method to control variables, and abruptly calculated that there are 220 universal runes for water, fire, earth, wind, nature, and metal.

Among them, the metalness is the simplest. The power in Zhong Ming's hands gives him almost the highest authority over the metalness, and he can easily deduce all the metalness universal runes from the etheric source sea.

Then boldly speculate that there should be 220 universal runes for the remaining attributes.

The more runes in the sea of ​​consciousness is not the better, too many runes, in addition to occupying the share of mental power, will inevitably lead to a drop of one-ten-thousandth level of concentration.

Since Zhong Ming does not lack that bit of magical power, he intends to wait until he finds out the universal runes of all attributes before being promoted to an official wizard.

If this "general theory" is correct, then he may have the basis for casting all spells...

This time will not be too long, and it will only take seven or eight years to drive the Shenguo accelerator.

Lavinia explained: "The Zamora family has always been the inheritance of knights, and the country has only been established for more than 100 years. It has not collected the inheritance of wizards."

Provincial flow: poor, short time, unable to find, unable to learn.

"If you want to learn, go to the Wizard Academy in Chang'an City, where wizards are specially trained." Zhong Ming thought for a while, then took out a crystal ball, "Put your hand on it, and see if you have the qualifications for wizards."

Lavinia carefully placed her hand on the crystal ball.

Zhong Ming glanced at it: "Affinity for advanced earth attribute is 83 points, not bad."

"Then can I go to the wizard academy to study?" Lavinia asked expectantly.

"Well, you reminded me, according to the feudal contract between me and the Zamora family.

Your family happens to send a person to Chang'an City for exchange and study, but you lied to me that the two little Zamoras died on duty, so I don't have the nerve to mention it! "

……

After chatting for a while, the two returned to their tents to rest.

Zhong Ming has also been dealing with government affairs for nearly a month without a good rest.

If you count the five times acceleration time of the Kingdom of God, he is equivalent to nearly half a year for 007...

I can't bear it, I really can't bear it, my body can bear it, but my spirit can't take it anymore.

Lying on a soft mattress, this entrepreneurial god fell asleep unconsciously...

The blood moon slowly rose to the center of the sky, a cold and damp atmosphere came from outside the camp, and heavy rain fell suddenly.

The wind was howling, and the rain was pouring violently, as if it were about to wash over tents and camps.

Mountain rain is coming.

Fortunately, the wind and rain splashed on the magic circle, only a layer of water droplets fell out.

Between the two tents, a bonfire was burning, and now and then balls of flame jumped and crackled, flying out with some sparks.

The torrential rain was pouring outside the camp, and the bonfire inside the camp was still burning peacefully, like two worlds.

The young couple in the camp were still soundly asleep.

woohoo~
Huhu~
Suddenly, gusts of cold air hit, and the entire camp suddenly became extremely quiet.

As the cold air penetrated, some vague figures began to appear around, some of these transparent figures were trembling, some were erratic, some were humanoid, some were animal.

These dead souls rushed to the camp greedily amidst the wind and rain and the blood moon.

They seem to be fighting among themselves.Two of the youthful figures stuck in front of them, but they didn't have the slightest effect. Instead, the already illusory figure that was bitten blurred for a while.

The tent began to shake, and the flames of the campfire became dimmer, as if shaken by some invisible force.

The magic circle seemed to be provoked by some kind of provocation, and the metallic magic power counter-shocked one after another, and one after another the undead were stung by the light and turned into nothing.

The two dead souls who were blocked were also affected, and their figures were shaking...

"Brother!" Lavinia in the camp seemed to feel something, she suddenly woke up from her dream, hurriedly opened the tent, and looked outside the camp.

Lavinia covered her mouth and looked at the densely packed dead souls outside the camp who were being attacked by the magic circle. She couldn't see the faces of the dead souls in the pitch black wind and rain clearly, but she had a deep intuition - there were her two souls in it. brother.

After reading this, Lavinia rushed to Zhong Ming's tent anxiously, and tore open the tent opening: "Master Ming, wake up, wake up~"

Zhong Ming, who was in a deep sleep, did not fall asleep with vigilance, opened his sleepy eyes, got up and followed her to the outside of the tent.

"Damn it, you have something to talk about, why are you tearing up the tent? Can you understand a politician who works day and night?" Zhong Ming glared at her and said listlessly, "What's the matter, tell me quickly!"

Lavinia spoke at the fastest speed in her life: "That's right, Master Ming, I had a dream just now..."

Zhong Ming rubbed his chin: "You mean, dreamed that your two older brothers came to you in a dream? In the ghost outside the camp? Let me stop the magic circle?"

"Yes, Master Ming, please..." Lavinia hurriedly took Zhong Ming's hand and put it on her chest.

Zhong Ming shivered, withdrew his hand, and shook it: "All right, all right, it won't take much anyway, so don't make any fuss."

Lavinia also thought of the inappropriateness of her actions just now, her face flushed a little.

Zhong Ming lifted the magic circle, and the ghosts outside the camp stopped howling, a few dispersed, but most of them rushed towards the two of them.

Those who come out in the second half of the night are usually resentful spirits and fierce spirits. These souls who do not want to go to the underworld not only hate the living, but also hate all living beings!
"Oh~ it's so hard to sleep!" A golden light shot out from Zhong Ming's hand, and he slashed towards the sky!
Layers of thick dark clouds were like cut melons and fruits, and the wind and rain were stunned.

As the energy in the golden light diffused, the clouds scattered around like smoke being pushed away.

The rain stopped.

Zhong Ming grinned grimly and rushed towards these dead souls...

In a short while, all the ferocious souls of the dead were restrained, floating in place motionless.

Zhong Ming threw to Lavinia a lantern inlaid with light-attributed magic stones and exuding translucent white light: "Take a good look, who is your brother here, hurry up, I'm waiting to sleep."

Lavinia took the lantern, looking for the guidance of the blood in the dark, and quickly found two ghosts: "Brother!"

These two ghosts were dressed in gorgeous robes, but they looked erratic, as thin as skin and bones, with sunken eye sockets, loose hair, and looked lifeless.

It looks like kidney deficiency.

Seeing that the ghost could not move, Lavinia looked at Zhong Ming for help.

Zhong Ming's mental strength pulled them out of the imprisoned queue, and then he moved slightly, crushing the other evil spirits, and opened the defensive circle to block the howling night wind.

"Lavinia." One of the older ghosts slowly recovered and said in surprise.

"Brother Limen." Two lines of tears flowed from Lavinia's pretty face, covering her mouth and sobbing.

"Lavinia."

"Brother Hans, who and what happened, and what happened to you?" A flash of hatred flashed in Lavinia's eyes.

The two ghosts looked at each other, and the older Leimen said, "It's like this..."

To put it simply, on the night of their disappearance, they stole their father's golden dragon horn to play with, and bragged about it. As a result, a troll monster was attracted. According to their narration, it should be the one that Besov eliminated. .

The trolls killed all of their followers and carried them away to a golden banshee without clothes.

The banshee took the dead guards to her lair, writing in their blood, and claimed the troll was their brother, a half-brother.

Then it's all about forcing them to do something harmonious until the banshee lays two eggs!
Then the chief guard and Lavinia led the soldiers to search the banshee's lair, but they were defeated by the banshee, and the whole army was about to be wiped out.

The two princes suddenly hijacked the two eggs secretly, threatening the banshee to release his sister Lavinia.

Therefore, the last search and rescue team only survived Lavinia.

After Lavinia left, how could the two princes have the ability to hold their eggs in front of the banshee, and they were directly slapped out of their souls by the angry banshee, leaving only their bodies for the banshee to use.

While the souls of the two princes were wandering in the mountains, they discovered that their younger sister was leading a man towards the banshee's lair, so they wanted to show up at night to dissuade her from leaving quickly and not to die.

"Brother~" Lavinia cried like pear blossoms and rain when she heard what happened to her brother, "Master Ming, please, save my two brothers. Although I don't have any precious rewards, I am willing to give my I dedicate myself to you..."

"Stop, stop, stop~ Calm down, they shouldn't be completely dead in this situation." Zhong Ming waved his hand to interrupt her tiger-wolf words.

"Half father..."

"Rainy night, repel the banshee..."

"lay eggs……"

"Tsk tsk." Zhong Ming smacked his lips, good guy, father and son are deeply in love, right?The old and the young Zamora have come to the same goal by different routes!

I said Rufis Zamora, an earth knight, could repel a banshee whose son a troll could fight against an earth knight.
This banshee abducted humans for the sake of reproduction!
Rufis, who was brave and young, probably also killed the banshee's son, and then gave birth to a troll son with the banshee.

Rufis has been seriously ill recently. This is because the illegitimate troll came to his door and was brutally killed by someone hired by his cruel father.

Zhong Ming: "Lavinia, don't worry, don't grab my pants!
I said, if you can save it, you will be my future vassal, but don't treat wizards as a panacea, I can't promise you anything..."

"Okay, sleep!"

……

After one night, Besov in the sailboat held his waist and walked out of the cabin while holding the side boards, while the other mercenaries were still sleeping soundly.

"My god, this banshee is really exciting, even more exciting than the sea monster last time. Ma Madi, even if she doesn't fulfill her promise, I won't lose money if I sleep with her all night!"

"But if you can really be a king, hehe!"
