It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 248 The curtain opens
The witch represents evil and cruelty.

These creatures originated in the Feywild, but became the scourge of the Material Plane.

Ghost witches are extremely arrogant and conceited. It can be said that they always think that they are the smartest in the world, and everyone else is a lowly and inferior creature.

Some are even so arrogant as to think that their magic can challenge the gods, and they are dismissive of the gods, and even mock and blaspheme them.

It is hard to imagine what kind of courage and hymn this is.

However, one thing that cannot be denied is that the knowledge of the witch is indeed very valuable.

Because during their long lifespans, no matter how insignificant they are, they will inevitably accumulate a lot of information from what they see and hear.

Moreover, the witches keep in touch with each other and share knowledge with each other, which results in the information they have access to covering a wide range of areas.

Including local anecdotes, information about dark creatures, and even various magical knowledge...

——These are exactly what the summer solstice needs.

The old witch thought she had found the right prey, but she didn't know that the other party was actually a hunter...

If this wasn't the druids' territory, its soul would have been sucked out and decomposed by the gray goo storm long ago.

Aunt Ethel was completely unaware that she had just walked through the gates of hell, but she still tried her best to perform her job.

"I know a few tricks, but I also learned some alchemy before, so I can make some potions that are not too difficult..."

As the old witch spoke, she carefully observed the expression of the young man in front of her.

Noticing the disapproval flashing across the other party's eyes, it quickly adjusted its next words:
"...Of course, these may not be enough, but it doesn't matter, I still have some spell scrolls..."

"Oh?" Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows, "Spell scroll?"

Sure enough, the prey took the bait.

The old witch was secretly delighted, even though the other party was a little picky and greedy.

It's no longer something that can be solved with some magic potions, but it's better this way, because it likes this kind of greedy but incompetent guy.

Because it means better set-up...

You don't even need to seduce them in any way, they will fall deeper and deeper for power, step by step, until you end up reaping a fallen soul.

"What kind of spell scrolls are there?" the magician asked directly.

"Don't be impatient, young man. These things are very precious. I am an old aunt and have only been able to get a few of them in recent years. Of course, I have to keep them well."

The old witch opened her bloody mouth, smiled amiably, and sighed in a pretentious manner.

"If something bad hadn't happened today, I wouldn't have wanted to take out these coffins and sell them. There's really nothing I can do."

But putting aside its pretense, this statement does seem to make sense.

In this world, mages are undoubtedly noble, and anything related to mages is indeed incredibly expensive.

Be it magic equipment or spell scrolls, these are hard currency and rare goods. It would be suspicious if they were displayed carelessly.

The old witch was secretly planning on using this trick to lure the other party into taking the bait.

Just a few low-level spell scrolls will be enough.

It is obvious that these young people are the kind who have no idea of the immensity of the world and think that the path of a mage is so easy. This is completely wishful thinking.

But it's better this way. The more confident you are now, the more you will be hit hard by setbacks later...

Then, with a little beggarship, they will inevitably follow the path designed for them.

The old hag was busy thinking of her evil plan in her mind, and the magician was satisfied with the development of the plan. It seemed to be just as he expected.

This thing still has some residual value...

It’s not just non-recyclable garbage…

If that's the case, then you can take advantage of it.

What he needs now is a spell scroll, which is a real magic item whose value lies in the spells recorded on it.

I don't know how the wizards in this world learn spells, whether they can directly learn new spells through spell scrolls...

If you think about it carefully, maybe it is possible, but it probably won’t be that simple.

As long as reality is reality, rather than the rules of the game, there can be no clear-cut values and mechanisms.

It's not like consuming a spell scroll will directly increase the mage's spell power by +1 or something like that...

Learning requires talent, props are consumable, and there is a certain probability of failure during use...

All in all, the cost is a bit high.

But for a magician, it is not a question of whether or not he can do it, but that he has enough confidence, especially in his ability to learn "technology".

It's like having a cheat code in itself, and with the improvement of realm and the growth of Taoism, learning ability will naturally improve significantly.

Just like those thousand-year-old monsters and eternal evils, it is impossible for them to learn a few low-level spells and get stuck like they did when they first started as apprentices, right?

This is naturally impossible.

In addition, there is a personal terminal like "Grey Wind". Even if it is just a clone like himself, after all, the main host and the main database are not here, it is enough to handle a lot of computing work.

and so……

It is time for the magic web of this world to reveal its secrets to him.

Time passed quickly, but the continent of Faerun remained as peaceful as ever.

Or maybe it can't be called peaceful, but at least there aren't any major crises happening, and there aren't any conspiracies or intrigues involving the entire material plane.

From this perspective, it can indeed be considered peaceful.

As for those local troubles, such as cult activities, dark sacrifices, monster rampages, summonings from other worlds... and so on, these can only be regarded as the daily life of the people of Furen and are not worth mentioning.

This continent is like this. It has been a place of outstanding people and heroes since ancient times.

Even if there are undercurrents behind the scenes, we should be thankful as long as we can maintain the calm on the surface.

Likewise, nothing major happened in the Jianwan area.

At least on the surface nothing serious happened.

Until the night of that day, the night sky was torn apart, and a burning screw-shell ship streaked across the sky, slumping down from the sky.

Without any warning, it crashed into the green field.

"Oh no, that's the direction of the sea..."

A female tiefling raised her eyes and looked towards the end of the night sky in astonishment.

There was a monocular telescope standing in front of her. She liked to look at the stars at night and had always kept this habit, but she did not expect to see this scene from afar.

"We need to inform everyone quickly."

Taking a deep breath, the female tiefling turned around and ran away in a hurry.

She had a very bad feeling that this short period of peace was coming to an end and some kind of change was about to happen.

Since it can be seen from the druid's forest, then the largest headquarters of the Supreme God sect nearby can naturally be seen as well.

Even because the trajectory of the snail-shell ship when it fell was closer to the latter, it could be seen clearly without the need for a telescope.

The goblin in the watchtower also became alert instantly, and then hurried back to report to the priestess in the camp.

"I must inform the commander-in-chief immediately."

The priestess immediately realized the importance of the matter, and after receiving a direct message from the Mind Flayer Tadpole, she immediately got up to look for Minsara.

Although she came from nowhere, she was a priest appointed by the Supreme True God.

But in the camp in this area, the female drow is clearly the absolute boss at the moment.

Although the process of ascending to power was a bit bloody.

But, as Minsala had expected, the sect still acknowledged the final outcome.

After all, reality is so cruel. As long as she is valuable enough, who would hold her responsible for a group of losers - even dead losers?
Even in the church of a true God, there are bound to be some dirty things.

It is really unreasonable to expect a cult to have correct values.

It is precisely because of this clear grasp that Minsala cleverly used an acceptable small stain to cover up her own big problem.

Even the sect had never expected that—

This True Soul chose to kill his colleagues in order to prevent his undercover identity from being exposed and to complete his undercover mission.

I still think this is just an ordinary drama of fighting for power and profit.

For cult members, this is totally normal, after all, the entire sect has such bad habits.

Moreover, if a cult wants to develop rapidly, it usually uses various crooked ways and promises of benefits that are not known to outsiders to attract the majority of members...

So naturally there is no way to stop her in this regard, and it is even more impossible to suppress her with this reason.

It is also because of this that Mingsala naturally took control of the power of the Supreme God in the Green Wilderness and the surrounding areas and became the local boss.

As the power of this female drow continued to grow, her influence in the base camp also grew.

Under normal circumstances, the deepest area in the camp was her own territory. Anyone who came in had to report to the next level, and no one knew what she was doing in there.

Normally, the priestess would abide by such rules and would not suspect that a colleague with a bug in his head could do anything detrimental to the sect.

But now, the situation is clearly urgent, and the oracle demands that current emergencies must be dealt with immediately.

So the priestess didn't think too much about it and just forced her way in.

"…My Lord is everything, authority, power, everything, one and all…"

"...He is the real Supreme of the Star Sea. Below is as above, and above is as below. In this way, the miracle of Taiyi is accomplished..."

"…The Supreme True God is merely the incarnation of our Lord, but even as an incarnation, He possesses seven kinds of light, thirty-two kinds of merits, and forty-eight kinds of goodness…"

The female drow enthusiastically proclaimed this truth, which in her eyes became more and more sacred day by day, to the cult members who bowed respectfully before her, and she diligently preached the truth for the second time.

next moment.

Bang.

The tightly closed door was violently blown open, and the priestess stared at the situation inside with anger on her face, her eyes almost bursting with rage -

"Minsala! How dare you betray the Supreme True God?!"

"..."

"..."

The female drow seemed to be caught off guard by the sudden intrusion of the priestess.

But she quickly reacted and sneered: "What do you mean by betrayal? It's so stupid. I am correcting the chaos and teaching them to know the true teachings and glory of my Lord!"
