The mage arrives

The two strong men, who were originally looking for trouble, looked behind the middle-aged man and saw that there were so many helpers standing out, their expressions suddenly became ugly.They gave the middle-aged man a deadly look, and had no choice but to leave the tavern in despair.

The middle-aged man with a spear on his back looked at Gordon: "If you don't mind, sit with us. I know it's not easy to be alone, especially for a young man like you who doesn't seem to be intimidating."

"Your generosity and kindness, let the gods praise." Gordon nodded to the middle-aged man, then accepted the other party's kindness, and sat down with his companion.

After some introductions, Gordon knew the middle-aged man's name: Ronald.He is a sixth-level fighter and the captain of the small adventurer team "Lucky Coin".In addition to Ronald himself, there was also a dwarven shield named Grago Shortbeard, a halfling wanderer nicknamed "Sour Pear" who did not reveal his real name, and a handsome young bard A poet, a priest of Avandra, the god of freedom and adventure, and a ranger.

The average level of the team is around level five, with a reasonable mix of occupations. From the behavior of the team members, it can be seen that they are not fledgling rookies and have a certain amount of adventure experience.

For Gordon, this adventurer team is really suitable.Not only has good strength, but judging from Ronald's willingness to stand up for this stranger just now, the captain is also good in character and can be trusted.

"Captain, it is expected that the fierce fog at the east gate of the Danzig ruins will dissipate tomorrow afternoon, which is the best time to enter. If you miss this time, I'm afraid the next opportunity will have to wait until next year." Pastor Cynthia said.She was wearing silver chain armor and a priest's robe with a pattern of a traveler's backpack on her outside. The mace and eagle-shaped shield were casually leaning against the legs of the table, but whenever an accident happened, she could immediately grab the weapon and throw it into the During the battle.

Ronald glanced at Cynthia.This handsome priest with rare light blue hair has quite a say.Ellie, the ranger who is also a woman in the team, always stands by her side unconditionally when there are disputes in the team.And because she masters the magic of healing, the dwarf shield guards who always charge forward also respect her very much.

Ronald must carefully consider the pastor's opinion.He thought for a while and said, "Of course I know that tomorrow afternoon is a good opportunity to enter the ruins, but our 'lucky coins' are not prepared enough."

"We are short of a mage." The halfling wanderer Sour Pear's voice came from under the table.

Everyone showed dignified expressions—except for the bard.

This handsome guy with silver hair is called Gregor. While fiddling with his mandolin, he said nonchalantly: "With me and Cynthia around, why do I need a mage? I think my piano sound and Cynthia's magical skills, It is more useful than those boring spells of mages. You forgot how did the former mage in our team die?"

The ferocious fog in the Danze ruins not only confuses people's minds, but also interferes with the connection between the magic net and the caster, reducing the spellcasting success rate of the mage a lot.

During the last adventure into the Danzig ruins, the mage of the Lucky Coin team choked himself to death when he used the drowning technique because of the interference of the ferocious fog.

Although all spellcasters—whether using divine spells or arcane spells—would be more or less disturbed by the ferocious fog in the Danzig ruins, mages were the most affected group.

In the last adventure, the accidental death of the mage made the lucky coin team return without success, so before entering the Danzig ruins again this time, they need to think carefully.

Ronald said: "Gregor, although your singing voice and Cynthia's magic are very effective, they can't completely replace the role of a mage. We need a mage. At least in the ruins, we can meet the magic organs that can be seen everywhere. Gregor your tune is useless when it comes to puzzles."

Gregor shrugged noncommittally.The ability of a bard, like a warlock, also comes from a special talent in the blood. In "Ancient Era", this is also a profession that relies on charm attributes to make a living.

The sun elves once developed a very great magical civilization, not inferior to Netherdulan. In the ruins of Danzi, they will inevitably encounter many problems that can only be solved by relying on the arcane knowledge of the mage. Without a mage, Maybe there won't be too many problems when fighting, but when exploring, it will be troublesome.

"We are short of a mage, we must find it before tomorrow afternoon." Ronald concluded.

"I agree." Cynthia nodded lightly.

The dwarf who hadn't spoken all this time gulped down the ale in his glass and hiccupped: "I agree too."

"I unconditionally support Sister Cynthia and Captain Ronald." The lively ranger girl said.Her name was Serra, and she was a sweet-looking, petite red-haired girl, but with a pair of white rabbits on her chest, she was extremely well developed.Gordon thought of Shelley, and wondered if all the female rangers had such a tall and straight figure?

Seeing that his teammates agreed, the bard said helplessly: "Okay, although one more person will share more rewards, but since you agree, then I have nothing to say... But, in this short period of time Within, can we find a qualified mage?"

Lucky Coin can also be regarded as an elite team of adventurers. If they want to find a mage, they naturally can't just recruit someone to make up the number.You must have sufficient strength and experience, and you will not hold back the team.

But how could such a mage be found just by looking for it.

Mage is a relatively rare profession, and requires strength and experience, and does not belong to other adventure teams... It is really difficult to find candidates who meet their requirements in just one day.

"Everyone," Gordon stood up suddenly, looked around, looked at Captain Ronald with a sad face, and said, "I think I should meet your requirements."

"Are you a mage?" Almost all eyes in the audience focused on Gordon.

For this adventure, Gordon redesigned a set of mage robes, eliminating the useless long hem and wide sleeves, and adopting a close-fitting design suitable for outdoor activities. The unobtrusive salamander cloak, so Ronald didn't recognize Gordon's identity just now.

The captain of the Lucky Coins team took one look at Gordon's hand crossbow, mistaking it for a rogue.

Facing Ronald's question, Gordon nodded.

"Our Lucky Coin saved you just now out of kindness, but it doesn't mean that this team is a waste shelter. Mage, what is your strength?" The bard Gregor looked directly at Gordon, his eyes full of provocation.

He had always been opposed to recruiting another mage, and now seeing Gordon Mao Xu recommending himself, he was of course dissatisfied.

Although Gregor's words were a bit harsh, the other members of Lucky Coin did not speak out. They watched Gordon silently, with only one meaning in their eyes: prove your own ability, or get out.

Gordon smiled, snapped his fingers, and a cold light flew out from his fingertips, hitting the wine glass in the dwarf's hand.

The ale was chilled immediately.

"Instant zero-ring spell frost ray." Although he was a spellcaster, the well-informed Ronald immediately saw the spell Gordon cast.He laughed loudly, showing a happy expression: "Tymora, who said that luck will not patronize me! Young man, welcome to join Lucky Coin."

The serene priest Cynthia glanced at the dwarf's cup and said, "Just now you were able to deal with those two guys by yourself. It seems that our captain is meddling in his own business."

Being able to cast zero-ring spells instantly means that the mage has touched the fourth layer of the magic net, at least a seventh-level mage.With such strength, he is definitely qualified to be a member of Lucky Coin.

"Mr. Mage, you are really good." The petite knight-errant girl also leaned in front of Gordon, her big eyes flickering at the young man with black hair and black pupils in front of her.

Gordon returned with a humble smile.

He was very satisfied with the effect of his exposure.He knew that if he only showed the ability to cast three-ring spells, he would never be so valued by the other party.

If you want to have the right to speak in the team, you must have enough strength.Gordon didn't want to encounter any controversies and problems in the future adventures, and what he said would have no weight.It's better than being a lone ranger.

Of course, although Gordon showed his hand slightly, he did not use his real trump card.

There was a powerful mage joined, and all were happy.Even Gregor, the bard who had always opposed it, just snorted softly and didn't say anything.

Afterwards, the two parties signed an agreement in the name of Avandra, the patron saint of the Adventurer's Guild.Gordon will get a seventh of the rewards for participating in this adventure.However, based on the principle of more pay for more work, if Gordon obtains unexpected wealth by virtue of his personal strength, there is no need to distribute it, and he can get it alone.

Gordon didn't care about these details. After all, his goal was the legacy of Sun Elf mage Aravi Sunrise.

After a day of preparation and replenishment of the necessities of the expedition, he joined Gordon's lucky coin team and left Ash Town at noon the next day.

Passing through the wasteland where many glass pits were melted by various flame spells, the group came to the outer wall of the Danzig ruins.

Unlike observing from a distance before, now standing in front of the Danzig City Wall with a history of thousands of years, Gordon still can't help but be amazed.In order to resist the attack of the Netherdulan Empire, the specially reinforced walls are more than [-] meters high, and the walls are tightly stitched, with almost no gaps, and even weeds do not grow.

In front of this huge black wall that stretched for dozens of kilometers, Gordon even felt a little small.

Pastor Cynthia built a simple altar on the side of the road beside the city wall, and then everyone prayed to Evandra, the patron of adventurers, hoping that this adventure will go well and the harvest will be rich.
