Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 536: sneak

Siegel stayed in Star Castle, but he took a period of sick leave on the grounds that he was ill. ︽ Apex Novel, x. He told Evan that he was going to conduct a magical experiment - but it was also a pretense - that he was actually planning something else.

The rulers of the Starry Kingdom are asking for oracles for things related to the end of the world, and the news spreads like wildfire through some channel, into taverns, inns, and all the places where whispers and songs can reach. Among them, the credit of Wiki, the head of intelligence, is also contributed by the temple. Evan's first stop will be the Temple of Dawn, after all, he is also the spokesperson of the God of Dawn in the event and the protector of mankind.

However, asking for an oracle is not as easy and casual as a trip to the Royal Garden. It requires careful preparation, even "rehearsal". Even asking for a blank oracle is better than asking for nothing! Moreover, the temple also has its own needs put forward in this process, which inevitably requires prior communication and negotiation.

So the Starry Royal Family has a period of time to buffer. Like a giant about to wake up, turn over and stretch, and the Star Kingdom also needs to be prepared in all aspects. Evan took this opportunity to meet the lords of various places, from members of the royal family to numerous relatives, and then ordinary nobles and lords, showing interests and mobilization. After the events of the Orthodox Society, he also needs this opportunity to consolidate his rule and maintain his circle, so as to be able to meet the challenges of the end of the world and the goblin war.

Moreover, the royal family's musket policy has changed, which also needs to be explained to the various lords again.

Likewise, he had to deal with the managers of dwarves and elves, so that the consensus formed on the unsinkable stone boat could be truly implemented. The most important of these is the barrier that protects the crystal wall. What happened on the goblin's side could not affect this side in any way. Otherwise, wouldn't all the busyness be meaningless?

Siegel estimates it will take several months. Enough for him to complete the cloning experiment, as well as the third plan. Although the cloning technique is kept secret, it is not too strictly guarded. Earl Todd knows, His Majesty Evan knows, and perhaps intelligence chief Vicky will also hear a little. As a mastermind who invented a series of things such as Myr's energy core, how can he be free, so he must have a busy project, otherwise how can he conspire under Lier's attention?

What is really to be covered is the search for the Godhead of the God of Magic and Knowledge. To do this, Siegel needed to leave the Citadel of Stars and go to a place closely watched by the gods. He was going to find the owner of the ten-sided dice, the owner of the green dragon Alenos Iggs, who could not be named.

This is an appointment that has been scheduled, and the other party is one of the few people who know the secrets of the world. Especially since he still understands dice, maybe he is the only person left who can understand how to use dice. Siegel has long wanted to go, but he has never been mentally prepared.

To a certain extent Siegel was terrified of seeing each other. If what the green dragon says is true, then Siegel is a fatherless man, just an intelligent soul born of a higher artifact like the dice. It's a strange feeling to know that you might not be human. But what really worries Siegel doesn't stop there.

The gods pay attention to the dice and their holders, and they make no secret of their thirst for the secrets of the dice. The **** of magic and knowledge is willing to give up his godhead and powers in order to gain a mortal body. It is to avoid agreements with other gods, so as to start studying the mysteries in advance. Although the dice were magical, Siegel dared not forget that what the gods really cared about was the secret that the Wall of Storms stopped advancing. How to delay or even stop the destruction of the crystal wall, or at least have the opportunity to withdraw the divine power before the destruction of the crystal wall, this is really related to their vital interests, and it is definitely not comparable to one or two high-level artifacts.

It is said that the Wall of Storms has begun to shrink inward again, which cannot but attract Siegel's attention. Only the former **** of magic took action among the gods, it doesn't mean that others won't take action when the world's destruction is inevitable. Although the gods are limited by their own duties and can never do anything that violates their duties, for mortals, the power of gods is really difficult to contend with. Therefore, once the possibility of "jointly studying the secrets of the wall of the storm" disappears, the holder of the dice will have no peace.

If he has the ability to study legendary spells, Siegel will not be so worried. After all, legendary spells use the power of rules, so they can work on gods. He had no such means, and had to be sneaky—especially with Liel—to buy enough time. He arranged the affairs in the Star Fortress, and asked Mage Shelley to help cover it up. At the same time, he sent Humke to **** Sir Bill and his wife back to Naotai Fort, so as to prevent the poor orc from revealing secrets, and then set off on his own journey.

He was going to a place called Yari Valley, and then followed the underground passage to the location of the ten-sided dice, a place called "Prison No. 10" by the green dragon. "If it wasn't for the master, you would also be imprisoned in your own dice prison," the green dragon said before dying.

He must travel light, avoid towns and villages as much as possible, and choose places that are inaccessible. Even if Liel can't find his location, it doesn't mean Vicki can't detect his whereabouts. His actions may pose a considerable threat to the ruler, but the spy chief was by his side at the time but did not stop it. After Siegel wanted to understand this, he became a little wary of Wiki. And this mission doesn't need his help at all, so he simply avoids his sight.

The Yari Valley is in the north of the Starry Kingdom. If you start from the north gate of the Star Fort and walk along the Avenue of Wands for more than half a month, you will be able to approach the edge of the Yari Forest. The valley is in the middle of the forest, surrounded by steep rifts and wild beasts, and ordinary people will not approach that area at all.

There are many bad legends here, especially the giant man-eating animals that are constantly appearing. Some people suspect that there is an area of ​​the forest cursed by the gods, and even a small ladybug may be twisted and become the size of a foal under the curse. Among the songs of the troubadour are the words of knights slaying dragons in this area. Siegel doesn't believe those lyrics, because fire-breathing dragons against flightless knights always result in teppanyaki rather than heroism, victory, and dragon slaying.

Except for the song of the troubadour. There are very few records about this area. Whether it is history books or local chronicles, it seems that they are deliberately avoiding here. Siegel couldn't find more detailed information at all. Only the names of the outer towns and the general directions of the forests and valleys were known.

As a practitioner, he doesn't need to endure the cold wind and fallen leaves in late autumn, and he doesn't have to spend time measuring the ground with his feet. As soon as he left the magic-suppressed area of ​​the King of Stars, he used the Shadow Walk technique to summon the Phantom Horse and use the power of the shadow world to speed up his actions.

Except for shadow creatures, living creatures cannot see the shadow world, and only a few people with keen senses sometimes feel a shiver and a chill emerge from the soles of their feet. That is the coldness of the shadow world - the coldness on the back of the neck is mostly the negative energy brought by the undead. Siegel rode forward in this world without temperature, and the elemental power was like a shining lamp in this world, radiating from him constantly. Shadow creatures are afraid of this light, so they can only hide in the deepest corners and probe their brains to observe. Even with their sharp claws, ethereal bodies and voracious appetites, they cannot touch the light. They are born of shadows, feed on shadows, and eventually become one with shadows.

They turned everything on the way into black and white, and even the sun was just a pale, circular shadow in the sky, so there was nothing to admire. It was not until the shadow walking magic was lifted that the color finally entered Siegel's field of vision.

Sunrise in the Yari Valley. Dye the eastern sky in rose and gold, and blend with the autumn forest below it. Siegel on the Phantom Horse. Staring at the gradually spreading radiance, I felt a touch of warmth again in the coldness. Dawn climbed up the treetops and the corners of his eyebrows, and even the phantom horse under his crotch seemed to be stained with a golden light. In his eyes, the whole world turned from pitch black to indigo, and then to dark green and bright yellow. Not far away came the sound of water rushing out of the ridge, accompanied by the chirping of birds and insects. Winter is coming, and many lives are coming to an end, so this last party is extra lively.

Siegel took a deep breath, only to feel the stagnation in his chest dissipated, and he was filled with excitement again. After returning the Phantom Horse to the Shadow Realm, he took a wand in one hand and a long sword in the other, and walked towards the forest. The outer area is close to the dwellings of human beings. Sometimes nearby villagers come here to pick mushrooms and wild fruits, and also secretly set up a few traps to catch squirrels and other small animals. Thirty miles east of Siegel's location, there is also a lumber mill. The sound of the water saw will disturb the ears of animals, so there are few predators nearby.

At first glance, there is nothing special about this forest, but only those who are sensitive to magic and the elements can perceive it. If it wasn't for his vigilance, Siegel would have been hard-pressed to discover the secrets in the forest. Coiled among the sturdy trees, among the seemingly dry and low-hanging vines, there is a very weak aura that detects magic.

To be able to combine the power of a spell with a plant so well, only a druid of the elves could. They have a way of transforming themselves into big trees, by spreading their roots to form a network that allows them to manipulate the entire forest. The magic in these vines is not sensitive, but if touched frequently, it will also cause the watcher to notice.

Nothing but golems can stay awake forever, so the druids who monitor here don't pay attention to every nuisance. Most of the time they were immersed in half-dreaming, similar to a mage's meditation, but unable to think precisely. They use images to communicate more, such as patterns that change colors and shapes, the blowing of wind and the beating of rain, and sometimes a variety of scents that convey emotion. The dream world called Druid, but I don't know how breaking a vine will behave in their dream world.

Siegel put his hand on the cross section and felt the magic flowing in it~www.readwn.com~ This force is too weak, and only the skin of the fingertips can parse it out. Although this is only magic used for detection, it has no ability to attack or defend itself, and it is all over the forest with courage, so people can't help but be vigilant.

The spell is extremely sensitive to various non-life forms, all elemental creatures, golems and undead will immediately trigger the alarm, and those from other worlds, such as demons and angels, are equally regarded as the most dangerous enemies. For the inhabitants of the forest and the residents of the surrounding villages and towns, this magic circle feels their blood. Humans, elves, and dwarves all behave differently, while beasts, insects, snakes, and birds are completely different.

Druids themselves can change into various animals, and changing into different types of animals in different areas will not trigger these detection magics.

Of course, this was just Siegel's conjecture. He didn't see any patrollers in the forest. But as long as it is a spell that detects blood, he can deceive. (To be continued.)
