Chapter 74 Overview of the Faction

The army of White Horse City will set off tomorrow morning. So Sauron went to the secret magic shop early in the morning and bought a few necessary spell scrolls for himself.

Most of the spoils in his hands have been sold, and he has exchanged nearly 1,000 Kindlers, which seems to be a lot of money, but there is nothing left to buy a little something. The speed at which the Master spends money is absolutely beyond your imagination. Sauron purchased a scroll of the second-level spell 'invisibility' and directly spent 300 Kindlers. This is the most expensive second-level spell scroll. After use, you can make yourself invisible for a period of time. If you parse the spell scroll to split the model, the wizard can transcribe it into the spell book.

Rogue's stealth ability can be stacked with invisibility.

Because invisibility is only to make oneself disappear, it will not cover up the sound of one's footsteps, and it will not erase the traces of activities. Only when thieves use invisibility, it will be the least easy for others to find out. Of course, Sauron didn't use it as a one-time consumable. After reading the blessing, he disassembled the spell scroll, and recorded 15 sheets of paper according to the model on the spell scroll. Only then did he count the complete information on the invisibility technique.

Invisibility has more than 1,200 spell nodes and nearly 100 spell circuits. In the state of blessing 'reading', Sauron directly read ten lines at a time, and then relied on the powerful ability to remember. Although it took Sauron less than ten minutes to write down the contents of the more than ten sheets of paper, it would be impossible to complete the construction of the spell model of the invisibility technique within a few days. It seems that it is easy for you to memorize an academic paper, but it is very troublesome and complicated to experiment according to the content of the academic paper.

Other first-level spells can be put aside for now, invisibility is currently the most useful spell for Sauron.

After mastering certain skills in constructing spell models, Sauron skipped other spells and learned invisibility first. A 4th-level wizard has 2 second-level spell slots and can memorize invisibility twice a day. A flip card. The stealth of 150 points of the rogue can only achieve the effect of invisibility in the shadow, but the invisibility of the second ring can be directly invisible in the daytime.

The two are completely incomparable!

If it weren't for the fact that thieves could sneak in hidden places at any time, I'm afraid they would be thrown out several streets by a second-level spell.

………………

The deployment of the army also requires the deployment of logistical materials, and the assignment of adventurers also takes time. Sauron's task is reconnaissance, which is the most common task for rogues, and the frontal battle is mainly handed over to the White Horse City Legion. After he left the secret shop, he entered the gray area, and a lot of equipment needed to be replenished, especially the poisoned crossbow bolts and the venom of the flying dragon. These things cost him nearly 200 Kindler's income, and the spell scroll directly used up half of the deposit. If you don't use your equipment carefully, an adventure is very likely to make ends meet.

Before leaving, Sauron went to a caravan station.

Surprisingly, he met the coquettish woman again, but this time the other party didn't use any spells on him, just raised his eyebrows to reveal a playful smile, and played with a card between his white fingers.

"brat."

The coquettish woman chuckled lightly and joked, "Isn't it frightened by my sister last time? Actually, my sister is just teasing you. If you really want to deal with you, a dissociation technique is enough."

Sauron silently pressed his palm on the machete, his expression showed no trace, but the whole person was ready for battle. The coquettish woman in front of her was actually the mother of the caravan hostess. Although Sauron was very smart and did not ask questions, it was not difficult to see that their mother-daughter relationship was very rigid. In a weak situation, never have too much curiosity, Sauron focused his attention, and his eyes slightly fell on the other's fingers.

It was a card of all things impermanence, and it might be a higher-level arcane card, or even a legendary fate card.

She may also be a high-ranking witch!

A Northland witch with a professional level of 15 or above and a powerful spellcasting ability.

"Mother." The figure of the hostess of the caravan appeared soon. She glanced at Sauron and nodded slightly, then turned around and said to the coquettish woman: "You should go back. According to the rules set by the council, you will You cannot leave your residence for more than 2 hours."

Banished witch?

Sauron's brows twitched slightly, and he quickly covered all his expressions.

His basic skill "acting" has never been high, and his "fraud" skill is relatively average. In other words, Sauron can't act, and he can't hide the other party's true emotions with his expressions. Therefore, most of the time, he tries to maintain a relatively cold and expressionless state as much as possible, so as to prevent the other party from judging his inner thoughts from his expression.

'Acting' and 'Cheating' are also useful basic skills.

It is said that beautiful women are born with acting skills and have a 10-point acting skill.

Of course, this might just be a joke.

But there is no doubt that the coquettish woman in front of her is obviously very good at acting. She stood up as if nothing had happened, clapped her hands lightly and planned to leave. Before leaving, she glanced at Sauron inexplicably. That feeling was like being stared at by a beauty snake. Even though the other party had a stunning appearance, it still caused goose bumps on Sauron's back. It was a completely instinctive reaction, he subconsciously clenched the machete, and the muscles in his whole body tightened.

"Giggle."

The coquettish woman laughed lightly, with a coquettish smile on her face, looked at Sauron up and down, playing with her taste: "It looks like you are very afraid of me."

She walked past Sauron gently, with a unique fragrance on her body.

Sauron took a deep breath unconsciously, as if the scent was very attractive. This action made the coquettish woman show a charming smile, and her expression seemed to have a hint of joy. Women always like men to bow down to their charm. However, Sauron's expression was still very calm. He had already remembered this scent in his heart. If he smelled this scent again, he could quickly judge it. Smell is something that can easily reveal a target, and thieves will try to wipe off body odor as much as possible.

Sauron had killed many women before, including many high-level witches. More than once, he relied on the scent to judge the position of the enemy after the high-level invisibility.

The scent of women is very pronounced, and the more pleasantly scented women are, the easier it is to kill them.

"terribly sorry."

When the coquettish woman left, the caravan hostess said sorry again, but didn't say any reason. Sauron followed her into the laboratory, preparing to meet Vivian before departure. This mother-daughter relationship is very strange. The daughter is obviously a person who values ​​order and favors kindness, but the mother knows at a glance that she is the kind of person who can do whatever she wants.

If divided according to the factions of the players in the previous life, the faction of the caravan mistress should be lawful neutral, favoring good people, while her mother is chaotic neutral, obviously favoring evil people. Alignment shifts for past life players are very common, because each faction has a statistic value of 50 points. For example, a lawful neutral faction, 1 point is biased towards lawful good, and 50 points is biased towards lawful evil. But as long as it is within this range, it still belongs to the lawful neutral camp.

If something good or bad is done, it is very likely that the alignment will shift and become lawful good or lawful evil.

Of course, the aborigines in the plot rarely shift, and it is mainly the players who shift.

This alignment shift is not just about good and evil, but also the way individuals behave, shifting from lawful to neutral, or neutral to chaotic.

Human behavior is changeable.

I am afraid that there is no race in this world that is more often aligned than humans.

It's not ideas that determine alignment, because evil thoughts pop into everyone's head, even noble paladins. The key is whether you put this idea into action. People in the evil camp always carry a lot of evil thoughts and resentment. In this world where supernatural abilities are common, these things can be seen through magic aura. Equally kind people are grateful, which is also a weak belief force that can act on certain spell auras.

That's why paladins like to use the magic of 'detecting evil' on people without incident, although this is the most annoying thing!

Sauron hated them.

Sometimes when I encounter these elm knots, I really want to be chopped to death and pulled down!

………………

at dusk.

Sauron left the caravan station. The army of White Horse City will set off tomorrow, and he still needs to prepare well.

Because the next battle may not be easy.
