The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 203 Nightmare Artifact
After the battle, Richard left the arena.

The introduction to the Po Shan Gang Quan was a big improvement for Richard. The most powerful part of the Po Shan Gang Quan was the word "Po". This was a fist technique that was specifically designed to deal with various defensive measures.

As long as you figure out the frequency of resonance, you can break the enemy's defense with one punch.

Back in the wizard tower, Richard entered the communication room next to the laboratory as usual and used the dream world communication equipment to communicate with Bones.

After Richard's improvements over the years, the performance of the cooling components of the Dream World communication equipment has been significantly improved. If Richard is willing, his communication time can even continue forever.

But the consequence of doing so is the consumption of a huge amount of magic stones.

The magic stone consumption of the dream world communication device is similar to that of the gravity training room. One gold-eater is enough, but two Richards are really too much.

Therefore, Richard still maintained the habit of communicating for ten minutes a day.

The spiritual message was transmitted into the soul seed through the communication device, and the nightmare body in the coffin opened its eyes instantly.

As usual, Richard knocked on the coffin and waited for the bones to unlock the chains on the coffin.

Bone's daily life is very boring. Apart from practicing swordsmanship at home, he goes to the tavern in the lawless land to accept tasks. Richard's daily communication is just like greeting online. He usually ends the communication after confirming that Bone is fine.

After all, communication equipment consumes real magic stones, and one second less of communication consumes less magic stones.

But this time, after Richard knocked on the coffin, he did not get a response.

"there is a problem?"

Richard frowned. Normally, even if it was Bones who were carrying out the task, at this moment he would knock on the coffin in response.

But today there was no movement at all.

Richard put his hands on the coffin, shook his arms slightly, and heard the sound of the chain breaking.

After practicing in Changshan Temple and training over the years, Richard has mastered the use of physical strength to perfection. He has learned small techniques such as Inch Power without any teacher.

The coffin was opened and Richard stood up.

Then he knew why Bones hadn't responded.

There were more than a dozen nightmare creatures of the Great Nightmare level standing around him, and Bone was currently supporting his body with a greatsword, looking seriously injured.

Richard looked at the nightmare creatures around him and said lightly.

"Bones, this is a bad scene."

He knew that Bone had been carrying out a mission these days, but looking at the current situation, the difficulty of this mission was a bit beyond expectations.

Bones looked at Richard weakly, and a weak voice came from the black helmet.

"Boss, run."

……

Time goes back to twenty days ago. On that day, Bone came to the tavern in the lawless land as usual to take on dirty jobs from various lords or their vassals.

The tavern in the lawless land looks no different from an ordinary tavern... except for the sign that says "Death Seekers Tavern" with green flames, the bloody skull on the door, and the almost wasteland-style appearance of the wine coffin.

When the door was opened, all the monsters and demons in the tavern looked at the person who came in. After seeing Bone's iconic sword and coffin, everyone withdrew their gazes.

Bones is a regular at this tavern and one of the longest-lived guests.

When he arrived at the counter, a demon bartender with goat horns and dark red flames on his body handed Bones a glass of dark red wine.

"Your favorite, Nightmare Red."

Bone picked up the wine glass: "What mission?"

The bartender at the Death Seeker Tavern never buys you a drink unless he has something to ask of you.

The bartender laughed strangely, and a hot sulfur smell hit his face:

"A big shot wants to find a few unlucky guys to explore an abandoned nightmare territory. The unlucky guys must have the strength to reach the nightmare level. The reward is 500,000 nightmare crystals."

Five hundred thousand nightmare crystals, a terrifyingly high number.

This price can even invite a Nightmare Knight-level character to appear.

But the bones remained motionless, and the voice was as steady as usual.

"How many people? Who are they?"

"There are ten people, and you are the last one. In addition to a few newcomers, the [Executioner], [Scarecrow], and [Mist Coachman] have all joined."

The names mentioned by the bartender are all regular customers of the Seeker Tavern. These people are the big nightmares who have survived in the Lawless Land for a long time. Whether in terms of strength or experience, they are the best among the nightmare creatures in the Lawless Land.

Bone drank the wine in the cup and asked: "What time?"

The bartender took back the glass and said with a strange smile:
"This time tomorrow."

……

Looking at the nightmare creatures around him, Richard's expression remained unchanged, and his commonly used magic wand was condensed in his hand.

"Run? Where are you going? You're already in someone else's mouth, and you still want to run away without breaking your teeth?"

Richard looked at these nightmare creatures. In his eyes, the environment he was in was full of energy light paths. The energy light paths connected into a network were like the blood vessels of a living creature, which made Richard shudder.

The energy light paths on the bodies of the nightmare creatures around him were connected to the energy light paths of the surrounding environment. They were obviously puppets or something like that.

The current situation can no longer be solved by simply running away.

Upon hearing this, Gutou could only smile bitterly. He was really badly tricked this time.

The nightmare creatures around stopped moving for a while because of Richard's appearance. But they soon found that Richard was just a little nightmare and his strength was not enough. "Hehehe, I didn't expect that the coffin of the Black Coffin Sword Master would contain a little nightmare. If I tell others about this, I'm afraid people will think I'm crazy." A nightmare creature that looked like a ghost in the story laughed strangely.

Around him, more than a dozen blue-green ghost lights were circling around him.

Richard looked at him and didn't expect that these nightmare creatures could see through his talent and see his strength clearly.

But what if you see through it?

Richard waved his staff, and several black fireballs the size of human heads appeared around Richard.

"Bones, you're in charge of defense."

After saying that, the fireball flew towards the surrounding nightmare creatures at a high speed.

boom!
The fireballs exploded one after another, turning into dark spheres, which scattered the nightmare creatures. The 2,000-level damage of the Heart of Annihilation was considered a powerful weapon among second-ring wizards. Before these nightmare creatures mastered the rules of nightmares, some of them were even inferior to ordinary indigenous creatures. With the bones defending him, Richard was now equivalent to a turret in a war fortress.

During the bombing, the talking ghost was taken care of by Richard.

Bone stared blankly at everything around him. The exploding Hearts of Annihilation blew away the nightmare creatures that had just tried to devour him. The slow ones were even killed directly.

"Is the boss so strong?" he thought to himself.

Soon, the nightmare creatures that were about to eat the bones were completely dispersed. Richard used his magic to capture the bodies of several unlucky people who were killed in the explosion, and then devoured them.

hum!
A strong nightmare power erupted from Richard's body, and his whole body changed accordingly. The black robe, which originally looked very mysterious, now looked even more mysterious.

After evolving into the Great Nightmare, Richard's nightmare talent was further strengthened.

The evolution was complete after ten minutes.

Bone suddenly felt a shock in his brain, and the connection between him and Richard suddenly became closer.

Richard can even use this connection to draw on his nightmare power to achieve a balance between the nightmare powers of the two.

Richard moved his body and instantly felt much more comfortable.

After getting used to the physique of a second-level creature, he really wasn't used to the first-level Nightmare Drive.

Richard felt his own talent a little, and his whole body instantly turned into a shadow, seeping into the surrounding ground.

His evolved talent is similar to Shadow Walk, but unlike Shadow Stealth, this talent is stronger and does not require shadows.

Richard emerged from the ground and condensed a magic pocket, putting his coffin into it.

Then, Richard looked at the bones and asked calmly:
"Tell me what's going on. This place doesn't look simple."

……

The day after accepting the task, Bones came to the tavern as usual carrying the coffin.

The Death Seekers Tavern was not open today, but Bones still pushed the door open.

Inside the tavern, nine nightmare creatures with a distinct aura all looked at him.

Although Bones didn't recognize most of these nightmare creatures, there were three that Bones had seen before.

"The Sword Master is still as punctual as ever." A skeleton dressed like an old farmer, with a straw hat on his head and a horsewhip in his hand laughed.

Beside him, a fat nightmare creature, three meters tall, with a sack on his head and a rusty machete in his hand, looked at Bones, and a trace of blood flashed on the rusty machete in his hand.

He is the Executioner, a nightmare creature who is also skilled in the use of weapons.

Next to the executioner, there was a nightmare creature that looked like a scarecrow in a rice field, exuding an ominous aura. On his shoulder, a pitch-black crow let out a hoarse cry:

"Everyone is here, where's the bartender?"

"Scarecrow, you're still so anxious."

Scarecrow had barely finished his words when the demonic bartender emerged from under the counter, holding a case of bottles filled with murky liquid.

There is an entrance to the cellar under the counter, which contains fine wine brewed by the bartender using nightmare creatures.

The bartender waved his hand, and several winged demons grabbed the bottles and delivered them to the hands of several nightmare creatures.

"Try it. This is my newly brewed whiskey. I put nightmare blood and dragon saliva in it. I guarantee it's strong enough."

Bone took the bottle, opened it, dropped a drop into his mouth, and then put it aside.

He has no interest in alcohol.

Several other nightmare creatures tasted it, and after drinking the wine, they instantly spewed out several meters long breath of fire.

"Ha, that's pretty powerful indeed," the Mist Coachman commented loudly.

"It seems that this mission is a bit difficult."

The bartender never gives away his wine for free. The fact that he can bring out such top-quality wine shows that this mission will be extremely difficult.

The bartender shrugged and waved his hand, and a series of words written in green flames appeared in the air.

“The location of this mission is an abandoned nightmare territory. Its lord was defeated in the territory war and dragged his territory into the nightmare realm when he died.

Now that the territory has reappeared, a great man wants you to go in and explore the way. If possible, it would be best if you could bring something out. "

"What is that?" a nightmare creature asked.

The bartender smiled, and his voice was evil and charming, just like the legendary voice of the devil.

"It's nothing, just a nightmare artifact."
