Witch, don't be so lazy

Anke scratched his cheek.

Well, she felt that she had to find a way to get some phone credit.

……

Five days passed quickly.

Encore goes about his daily life as usual.

I practice in the Adventurer's Guild during the day and go out to hunt monsters at night.

As a formal mage, Anke is extremely efficient in clearing out ordinary monsters, like a lawn mower. The only thing that limits her is the length of the distance.

then.

In just a few days, the number of wild monsters in the suburbs of Xueshan Town decreased rapidly.

Not only did the guild staff marvel at this, but the townspeople who heard the news were also deeply moved. Anke no longer had to pay for snacks on the street, although she still paid with a stubborn attitude.

Unfortunately.

She had made some attempts herself these days but they hadn't been ideal.

Especially those concerning sacrificial rituals.

Perhaps because the monsters were too weak and were in the present world, the feedback given by the Dark Sun Lord was even worse than when he cleared the monsters in Hongyan Town. It was not even as good as a mosquito leg and was not enough to top up the phone bill. It was too disappointing.

Among them, Encore also made a very depressing discovery.

That is, if she used the [Devil's Gospel], the feedback from the Dark Sun Lord would drop drastically.

She couldn't help but grumble, "A mere little Dark Sun asked you to eat the leftovers of the High Priest, and you still have the audacity to object? If you keep throwing a tantrum, you won't even be able to eat garbage in the future."

This is of course a joke.

After all, the Lord of Dark Sun emphasized from the beginning that He needed "Spirit and Flame".

Spirit mainly refers to the soul and spirituality. Encore ate up the soul, so naturally the feedback he got was less.

As for spirituality, according to the school, it is something that can reflect the affinity of elements and the strength of rank.

Therefore, let alone those weak monsters, even ordinary first-level mages feel that their spirituality is not enough.

This made Anke extremely melancholy.

It would be great if I could come across those highly spiritual objects again, such as the statue of the Gospel Angel in the bell tower of Hongyan Town. That would be the most perfect food. I would eat it and feed it specifically to the Lord of Dark Sun.

Otherwise, according to the current progress, she didn't know when she would be able to get the blessing of the Lord of Dark Sun.

Even without the blessing, it would be nice to try out the Holy Flame Spell first.

An Ke had previously coveted Celine Weier's Holy Flame Spell, the dark golden flame was so handsome and powerful.

As a young priest, it is only natural for me to learn the same spells as the Saint.

I don't know if there's a chance to recharge in the demiplane given by Malchana...

In addition to the sacrificial ceremony, Anke also did not forget the experiment of the necromancy spell.

Well known.

There are three main schools of summoning the dead: skeletons, zombies, and souls.

The Skeleton system used to be the weakest, because even the most famous Bone Dragon was only strong in bullying weaklings, and was relatively weak in battles with the same level.

With the appearance of the "Bone Witch", the skeleton system has made a comeback, and its signature character has changed from the bone dragon to the fierce bone king.

The zombie system is still strong, with black warriors at the mid-level and death knights at the high-level. The low-level zombies are not bad if they are well raised, and they are strong from the early stage to the late stage.

The ghost system still has a large gap between the upper and lower limits, especially depending on the characteristics and luck of the spirit. Although they are all cursed evil spirits, the weak ones can only bully weaklings, while the strong ones are powerful weapons.

Of course, at his current level, Anke could only summon skeletons, zombies, and ordinary resentful spirits at best.

She had summoned all three.

The most practical ones are actually the skeleton soldiers, mainly because they are low-cost; zombies are actually okay, but the pile of rotten meat hanging on them is too disgusting, which adds a lot of difficulty to her engraving the spell; as for the resentful spirits, not to mention that the spell cannot be engraved, just the fact that they need to be summoned and cultivated by souls will make [Devil's Gospel] unhappy.

Of course, in addition to the above, there is still good news, such as she has upgraded the Necromancer spell from entry level to proficient.

The summoning time is significantly shortened, and the negative energy loss during the summoning process is also greatly reduced.

Another good news was that Hans said the things had arrived today and asked her to come and get them.

The old guy is really reliable. If he says one week, it will be one week.

Anke couldn't wait to set off.

She was finally able to start doing the tasks assigned by Malchana.

Chapter 80 Caught

"This is the Eternal Pointer Snowfield. As the name suggests, it's a tool specifically designed for locating in permafrost."

Hans carefully placed the object on the table. It was a round silver pointer engraved with ancient and complex patterns. The surface of the pointer continuously shone with changing light, like rolling mercury.

"Hold it during the ceremony, then silently recite the place you want to go, giving as many details as possible. A picture and coordinates are best. As long as there haven't been any major changes to the surface of the spirit world, and there haven't been any accidents, you can basically lock onto the corresponding location."

The masterpiece of the direct disciple of "Sky Traveler" is a treasure that is priceless even in the capital of the Northern Territory. Even having a way to buy it is not enough. A large number of forces and families are vying for it, and the queue is so long that no one knows how many years it will take.

When Hans gave the Eternal Pointer, he felt his heart bleeding.

Although he successfully cut in line by scanning his face and the other party kindly gave him a discount, the final selling price still made him feel painful.

When Hans thought about how he had spent so many gold coins and now gave them to the little ghost so easily, he felt like crying but had no tears.

Even if the origin of this item cannot be clearly stated, the necessary reminders are essential.

"Hey, Anke, have you ever really understood the surface of the spirit world? Don't go shopping with Luya in the permafrost. Her mediocre skills won't be enough to carry you."

Although he knew that the kid was making it up, Hans couldn't help but speak.

"If you misuse this item, I won't give you another one."

Anko raised an eyebrow.

"I've already been to the surface of the spirit world."

Because of this, she finally realized how ridiculous her previous excuse was and how fake it was.

But Anke had no intention of covering up the lie. Her attention was now focused on the silver pointer.

Eternal Pointer Snowfield.

Not only does the name sound powerful, but if you use the Eye of Judgment, what you see is even more powerful.

A large amount of magic power, high-level spirituality, the patterns on it are actually ancient spells as complicated as stars, which use very advanced techniques. The last time I saw something using this technique, it seemed to be a fake of the "Witch's Cloak".

Tsk tsk.

An Ke once thought that it might not be too difficult to travel through areas in the spiritual world, and perhaps low-level wizards could also obtain the corresponding props, so the old man agreed so readily.

But now I look closely, wool.

It's obvious with your toes that something of this level cannot be obtained by wiping out the Huangtu Gang.

For an instant.

Anke's brain began to work rapidly.

In addition to feeling that Hans's background was becoming more and more extraordinary, she subconsciously pondered his thoughts and then thought about the change in the old man's attitude.

The most obvious change may be traced back to when I obtained the Shadow Protection a few months ago.

The old man's attitude became noticeably friendlier, and even though he refused to switch to the School of Shadows, he was still willing to talk about some things that were obviously secret, such as the Lunar Corona Meditation Method.

But when I think about it carefully, besides mentioning Baba Yaga and Antika, it seems that it was also the first time I mentioned Malchana.

Although Hans replied that he didn't know at the time, but... this might not be true.

White Walkers, Baba Yaga, Malchana, the everfrost, even if the reasons he made up were obviously false, he was still willing to take out such precious things.

There was silence for a moment.

An Ke showed a suspicious look: "Old man, this couldn't be a trap deliberately set by you and someone else, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hans became so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

Fortunately, Encore changed the subject without the other party having to speak.

"I don't think it's necessary. So, you actually know Malchana?"

Although she didn't know the real details, the old man was obviously much stronger than herself. If he really had bad intentions, she would definitely not be able to sit here and chat.

"...You know, the Winter Witch Malchana, an epic-level elven mage, Baba Yaga's mortal enemy, and the former founder of the Frostwing Clan... Oh, according to the elves, she's also a god of the North."

Hans paused. "Although in the academy, the common saying is that the evil witch brought about the severe cold and snow, and then turned the North into the harsh environment it is today."

"But in reality, this should be Malchana's last resort, an aftermath. After all, most of her strength was used to seal the Baba Yaga."

Anke's eyes widened instantly.

On the one hand, I was surprised by the explanation that did not match the facts, and on the other hand, I felt that the epic was indeed awesome.

It was a never-ending blizzard that had lasted for thousands of years without stopping, permanently changing the environment of a large area of ​​the world and even forming a unique cultural symbol.

"Although Malchana succeeded in the end, and the Winter Witch and the Wicked Witch are now sleeping together in the deep spirit world, but..."

Hans shrugged. "He's clearly still at a disadvantage. The Frostwing Clan has perished, and the White Walkers and dark creatures have long occupied the North, especially Antica. He's also been active in the real world for quite some time."

The old man looked at Anke and said directly,

"I'm afraid you went to the permafrost because you heard Malchana's call. If she's in good condition, she wouldn't seek help from the outside world."

That is indeed the case.

Anko nodded.

"Therefore, you must be vigilant. There is a high probability that the place He wants you to go is dangerous."

Hans said in a deep voice, "You were an apprentice before. Although you were lucky enough to hear Malchana's call, you couldn't walk in the spirit world. It's useless to tell you."

After so many years, the Winter Witch and Baba Yaga had long since sunk into the depths of the spirit world. Moreover, their status was rather special, and they required a very powerful medium to establish a tenuous connection with the physical world.

However, there are very few of these so-called media left in the world. Even though the Northern Tower has plundered most of the relics of the White Walker royal family, quite a lot of them have been used up over the years to send people to the witch's garden.

As a result, sometimes all you can do is rely on luck - fortunately, this is the North, the same land, and occasionally there will be lucky people like Anke, who accidentally enter some special small worlds in the spiritual world and then hear Malchana's call.

If you can successfully complete the other party's request, you will not only receive certain rewards, but also when your level is high enough, you can use yourself as a medium to enter the witch's garden.

"Since you've become a mage, and your performance a few days ago... well, just barely acceptable, I think you have a good chance. So I might as well tell you everything I know."

Hans really didn't hide anything anymore, and he didn't know much.

After all, he had never been involved in any incident involving witches and only occasionally heard some information from his friends.

"...Hmm, so... Mammon is targeting Malchana? You gave me this item so you can use me as a link to contact Him?"

Anke asked tentatively.

She thought the old man was going to laugh it off again, but Hans was silent for a moment and actually gave an answer.

"No, it has nothing to do with anything else... It's just some of my own personal affairs. I might have to ask the Winter Witch for help to resolve some old matters, although I still don't understand why it was "Him"..."

Hans seemed unwilling to discuss this further. He raised his hand and pointed at the pointer in front of him, and said,

"The sooner we use this thing, the better. It was made in a hurry, and its power will fade if we delay using it for too long. Furthermore, the spirit world is constantly changing, and over time, I'm afraid its positioning will become even less accurate."

"Row."

An Ke nodded decisively.

After all, it has been nearly four months since Malchana gave him the task, and it would be impolite to delay it any further.

After returning and having enough food and drink, we will head directly to the permafrost.

It didn't take long.

The Adventurer's Guild's meditation room.

Arrange the ceremony.

Sit quietly with the Eternity Pointer in your hand.

Following Hans' instructions, Anke tried hard to recall the images and locations that Malchana had conveyed to her.

The light came on and the pointer burst.

A strange buzzing sound rang in my ears again, and my consciousness once again turned into a meteor, falling into the spirit world.
