Chapter 274 The Magic Mirror of Navigation

After breakfast, the camping equipment was put away, and Joan and his party led the hounds on the road.

Thomas walked at the head of the team, holding a map in his left hand and a small mirror polished in bronze in his right. He stopped from time to time to compare the map and the mirror.

This bronze mirror is a rather miraculous magical device called "Navigation Mirror". It can not only automatically generate nearby topographic maps, but also be compatible with existing maps.

What Thomas is using at this moment is the "reading image" function of the navigation mirror.

He first irradiated the map of "Wild Boar Island" presented by A Zhi with the magic mirror, recited the incantation, and immediately stored the map in the mirror, which was reflected on the surface of the copper mirror like a reflection.

Next, Thomas touched the map displayed on the mirror with his fingertips, and recited the mantra again, and the map in the mirror would show two spots of light, one red and one blue.

Among them, the red light spot represents Thomas's current position, and the blue light spot is located at the position he touched just now. The two light spots are connected by a zigzag yellow line.

This yellow line is the shortest route to the surface where the blue light spot is located.

Thomas set the destination in the center of a red area closest to the starting point, and then just follow the route provided by the "navigation mirror".

Another magical feature of the "navigation mirror" is that it can give hints and take into account the road conditions.

If there are insurmountable obstacles on the way, such as cliffs or rivers, they will be marked on the map so that travelers can prepare in advance.

Joan is very interested in this kind of magic guide that can store maps, automatically detect surrounding terrain, and give navigation routes. He really wants to use "Rune Runes" to analyze which spells are enchanted on the mirror, and copy them down by the way.

However, after asking Thomas, he learned that the two core spells of the "Navigation Mirror" were not within the scope of the mage's arcane spells.

One is the 5th-level nature magic spell "Ask Nature", and the other is the 6-level magic spell "Finding Shortcuts", which he can't analyze at all.

Disappointed, Joan had another bold idea and asked Thomas where he could buy the same "navigation mirror".

"My father bought this at the largest auction house in Midgard City. It is said to be a legacy of the ancient Asa civilization. I don't know where it was dug up from an old antique."

Thomas touched the magic mirror and expressed emotion.

"My dad spent a lot of money on this little mirror!"

Thing that most of Thomas thought was expensive was rare.

The ancient cultural relics of the Asa tribe itself are popular collections sought after by cultural relic collectors all over the world. Coupled with the use of 5-ring and 6-ring spells as the core technology of enchanting, in fact, it is not necessary for Thomas to say that Joan also imagined the "navigation mirror" Absolutely great value.

Even if there was a second magic mirror of the same kind in the world, he definitely couldn't afford it with his wealth.

Thomas led the way according to the guidance of the "navigation mirror", and Dick and Roger cut off the vegetation and branches blocking the way with daggers.

Joan took four hounds and was responsible for guarding the surroundings to prevent himself and his companions from being attacked by wild boars.

A group of four people, stop and go.

When the sun cleared the mist in the forest, they were more than a mile away from the river bank, and the sound of the rushing waves became inaudible.

At this time, the hound running at the forefront of the team stopped, sniffed around, and suddenly growled.

The other three hounds seemed to be infected, and also barked wildly.

"Be careful! There is a situation ahead!"

Thomas looked wary and raised his hand to signal his companion to stop.

Roger quickly climbed up a nearby big tree, condescendingly looked down at the place where the abnormal movement came from, then bowed his head and told his companions:

"There is a hunting party fifty yards ahead, fighting two wild boars."

"Are you sure there are only two wild boars?" Dick asked his brother uneasy.

"I only saw two boars, no other boars or hunters around."

"It's okay, let's continue on our way." Thomas breathed a sigh of relief.

Roger jumped out of the tree, and the four of them moved on.

Quickly through the bushes to the glade where the hunting party fought the wild boar.

Joan saw the four people on the opposite side from a distance, and felt a little familiar. After approaching, he recognized that the other party was the hunting team that he met at the riverside at noon yesterday. Composed of mages.

When they met yesterday, these four people were being besieged by a large herd of wild boars. Thomas had called out to ask them if they needed help, but they ignored them. Later, another hunting team arrived and did not say a word, and they did it directly. Joan Only then did they realize that they were being too polite.

The four people on the opposite side cooperated quite tacitly, like an experienced adventure team hired to participate in the "hunting competition". When they saw Joan and the others approaching, they immediately became alert.

The two shield and sword warriors in the team were respectively entangled with a wild boar, while the gunman turned his gun and pointed it at Joan's side, pressing the trigger with his finger, the intention of the threat was self-evident.

The mage in the short black cloak seemed to be the leader of the team. He waved his hand and blessed himself with a "shield technique", and shouted at Joan and the others coldly.

"Friends, we can take care of these two wild boars by ourselves, so we don't need to ask you to help! You'd better not get close, so as not to cause misunderstanding!"

"Don't worry, we're just passing by." Thomas raised his hands to show no hostility, "Goodbye friends, good luck!"

The face of the mage on the opposite side eased, but he still watched the four young hunters vigilantly. He didn't speak again to break the silence until they walked away from the wild boar and walked deep into the dense forest opposite.

"Friends, where are you going?"

"Try your luck elsewhere," replied Roger.

Hearing that he was prevaricating, the mage in black frowned displeasedly, and said loudly: "It's probably the first time for you to participate in the hunting competition, and you don't know the situation on the island. You have left the safari river too far, go ahead I'm afraid I'm in danger!"

"Thank you for your reminder, but we still want to try our luck far away, see you later."

Roger waved his hand, turned around and followed his companions to continue deep into the jungle.

The black-clothed mage had a gloomy face, watched the backs of Joan and his party disappear into the depths of the dense forest, snorted coldly, and cursed in a low voice.

"A bunch of little brats who don't know what to do! Just wait and see, there will always be a day when you regret it!"

"Boss, judging from the way these four little guys are dressed, they are probably students of Leiden College, young masters from rich and powerful families."

The gunman carried the magic crystal musket on his shoulder with his backhand, and a malicious smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"The boy who talked to you just now is carrying a valuable magic crystal gun, and his companions also have magic fluctuations, especially the fat boy who greeted you first, the bronze mirror in his hand emits The magic power fluctuations are particularly strong, and it is probably a high-level magic tool."

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

The mage stared at the shooter, his flickering eyes showed that he had already guessed the other party's intention.
