Chapter 621 Border Slaves
The carriage slowly drove away from this capital with great opportunities.
After half a month, Shirley entered the carriage with some embarrassment: "We're running out of money."
Anyang frowned immediately.
Shirley explained: "The money I brought when I came out was supposed to be enough for half a year, but Lord Baron didn't realize that the consumption in the northern part of the federation was much higher than that in the southern part. Even though many small cities were based on Ball City's budget, but Still not enough."
Thinking of this, her face became a little hot, and a dignified knight and a mysterious person would have a day to worry about money!
"Especially, the consumption in the capital city is too high. Danyou and Martin also used a lot of them a few days ago. Because it was your permission, I didn't refuse when they asked me for money. I guess if this continues, we can still half a month."
Anyang nodded to show his understanding: "I see."
Shirley bowed her head: "I'm sorry, it's because I didn't do the calculations well, which caused such trouble."
"It's ok."
Anyang waved his hand indifferently, turned his hand and took out several gems, plus a palm-length gold bar.
Shirley's eyes widened.
"How long will these last?"
"This... it can be used for a few months in the capital."
Anyang nodded with satisfaction and threw everything to her.
Shirley picked it up and read it carefully several times to confirm that the gold and gems were real, but she still couldn't see where he took out these things. , was a little surprised.
After seeing her go out, Anyang shook his head, then continued to pick up a piece of paper full of words in his hand and read it.
She is also suffering. She has more power than the great knight, and can be treated preferentially no matter where she is. Even if she joins the army, she can get the post of a legion commander in the federation, but she is willing to be a coachman, housekeeper, and even here for him. and maid.
The paper in his hand recorded several 'techniques', that is, the spells used by the mysterious people of this world. Of course, mysteries in this world usually have more than one method of magic, but magic is a must for mystics of all directions.
According to them, these spells are all zero-order spells, and they are the simplest among zero-order spells.
If not, Scott won't give them either.
During this time, Anyang has understood that mysteries place great importance on knowledge! There was also such a stage in ancient China. Those who mastered wisdom usually regarded knowledge as their most precious wealth, and would never easily hand it over to others or impart it to others.
It's just that, unlike ancient China, knowledge to mystics means both status and power.
This is not obvious enough for the trainees.
Anyang has experience in practicing spells and magic. Even if he can't talk about getting started in the mystic system now, it is also because of the limitation of knowledge that he cannot get the way to get started. In fact, he has a natural advantage in analyzing spells.
As for energy, it is even simpler. He is no longer unfamiliar with the energy between heaven and earth. For him, the biggest difference between the energy of the mysterious person compared to the mana and the arcane energy is only in energy conversion. It's all good to say.
Maybe those trainees haven't felt it yet, but Anyang has understood through these days of contact that they are probably only the objects of the Federal Parliament for the Lord Scott, and Scott has never taught them at all.
These zero-order spells are estimated to be disliked by real mystics, and the meditation method is also thrown away casually.
Anyang has never been in contact with the mystic system. Just based on his understanding of the energy, laws and spiritual power of heaven and earth, he has been able to analyze many defects in these meditation methods and optimize them. It is conceivable that the original method has many problems. rotten!
These spells are also very ridiculous——
Dancing Lights, which can create fire or other light sources.
Light spell, causes an item to glow.
Repair, which can repair minor damage to items.
Switch, which can open or close a small item.
...
There are not many who have a little bit of fighting ability——
Acid: Sprays acid to cause corrosion to the target.
When Anyang met the strong corrosive acid sprayed by the Cheris black cat, it was probably related to this spell.
Flash: Temporarily blinds a creature.
Stun: Stuns a creature briefly.
Throwing: Throws an object at high speed.
Toxic Touch: Adds a poison to a contact object, or directly touches a living creature to poison it.
Touch of Rot: Causes contact with creatures to rot.
Touch of Exhaustion: Makes the target exhausted and even fainted.
Freezing Ray: Freeze the target or slow it down.
Blade Sharp: Makes sharp weapons more penetrating.
...
If the technique is useless or limited, these trainees can only use the energy directly. This method is undoubtedly a huge consumption of the energy in their bodies, and it is easy to consume in the battle with the opponent. Do yourself.
If it weren't for the uneven physical fitness of the great knights in this world, they generally paid more attention to strength, and their physique and brain power were weak. Many spells would be directly immune to the casting of the great knights, and these apprentices who played some tricks would not threaten them at all.
In general, what was even more impressive was the abilities that the scattered apprentices happened to acquire.
For example, Burley's biological culture technology.
Anyang also faintly felt that most of the trainees were academic, and the zero-order spells were also mainly auxiliary. These simple and flawed spells seemed to be laying the foundation, and perhaps the first-order spells were the ones who determined the mystery. The real means of status.
"Cousin Shirley?"
"I am here."
"How long until we get to the border?"
"At most tomorrow."
"Um."
Anyang pursed his lips and studied the third technique.
In the past half a month, except for the first week to analyze the energy transformation process of the mysterious person, his body is basically swallowing this energy rapidly, and now he has easily surpassed all the trainees he has met.
As for the other steps, he basically skipped it.
Now he is analyzing the essence of this energy and the spells, and by the way, he also learns a few small spells.
In general, this is a way of using energy that has certain similarities with spells and arcane magic. In other words, spells and arcane magic also have a lot in common, giving Anyang a different path, but there is always the same The feeling of the end.
They took another and shorter route, and they did not pass through the territory of the Marquis of Poles, and they would not return to the baronies.
As night fell, the carriage stopped to rest.
The bonfire burned with a crackling sound, and cast shadows of trees in the distance, making the place look particularly gloomy.
However, both You and Martin were fully armed on duty. Because they were close to the Howling Forest on the border, they had been on guard in recent days for slaves who might attack the lone humans everywhere, and also to prevent being accidentally wounded by the border army as an enemy.
Gradually, something went wrong.
The surroundings became quieter and quieter, there was the sound of birds flapping their wings in the distance, and there was a faint stench in the air.
But Yu and Martin couldn't help drawing their swords, holding the long hilt of the cross sword in both hands, and looked around silently, back to back.
In fact, the Youslaves are similar to a well-trained and heavily armed knight apprentice, but first of all, it must be based on the premise of heavy weapons and frontal confrontation. If you encounter them alone in the wild, the Youslaves have a natural advantage.
That's why Dan-woo and Martin are so nervous.
Younu wins in strength and wildness. Humans are better in equipment and combat skills. If they don’t have time to use their combat skills, once they are suddenly attacked by the slaves, only heavy armor can resist. Considering the long journey, they all wear it. Light Armor.
In the tent in the middle, Anyang also discovered the surrounding situation and said softly, "Cousin Shirley?"
"clear."
Shirley came out of her tent and had already put on her armor, apparently she had already started preparations.
Just as she came out with her sword in hand, the situation suddenly changed——
"Roar!"
A wild roar came from the depths of the forest, and the woods and bushes immediately began to rustle.
Brush brush!
Figures about the size of a tiger jumped out one after another, their eyes reflecting a faint green light in the darkness, but they did not rush to attack, but surrounded them. Some of the slaves kept making weird syllables in their mouths.
Anyang, who is proficient in language, can understand them naturally, and he is discussing them too much——
"The people in this carriage must be very noble!"
"The priest said that you can't kill such people when you meet them. It's better to capture them, which will help us in our war."
"Well, listen to the sacrifice!"
Anyang was greatly surprised, opened the curtain and walked out.
The slaves began to discuss again--
"Come out, come out!"
"It's a human who looks weak, but unlike us, the more noble the human being, the weaker it seems."
"Wait for you to kill these two soldiers."
...
Anyang murmured in a low voice and applied a night vision magic to himself, and then he glanced at this group of unique creatures.
I saw that these slaves were generally about 2.5 meters in length, with stubby tails, about 1.2 meters in height at the shoulders, and their bodies were hairless. It was estimated that they weighed at least 300 kilograms. The head is large, but irregular, with well-developed canine teeth and thick limbs. It also has five fingers that are long and flexible like humans, but the fingertips have hook-shaped claws. The body is blue-black and looks very hideous.
One of the slaves shouted: "You go first!"
brush!
If there were no more words, the six slaves rushed towards Danyou and Martin respectively, and the other headed towards Shirley. They probably think that Shirley, who looks slender and slender and is still a 'female' human being, is easy to bully.
Immediately, Shirley charged forward like a ghost, faster than the slave, and the long sword crossed a silver moon arc in the air.
laugh!
That slave has been beheaded.
Dark green blood sputtered everywhere!
The slaves surrounding them were immediately stunned, followed by a burst of anger and uproar, as well as a little panic.
"The great knight, the great knight of mankind!"
"A great knight has appeared here as an escort, there must be an important leader of mankind, go and inform the sacrifice!"
Shirley couldn't understand what they were saying, but she could also see the intention of one of the slaves to leave. Her figure suddenly disappeared, and when she reappeared, she had already appeared in front of the slave, with the long sword inserted straight into its head. Its vitality has been cut off.
Younu suddenly became more frightened.
