Chapter 058 [High-Level Wizard Apprentice] and [Companion Insect]
Gawain had a bad premonition in his heart, but he didn't dare to verify it.
"Hiss~~"
At this time, the shadow snake that had been wrapped around Gawain's waist appeared, raised its head, and spat out snake messages towards Gawain.
Gawain hesitated, nodded and said:
"Go ahead and be careful!"
"Hiss~~"
The snake of shadow slipped down and quickly crawled away after landing. The snake's body was more than two meters long, which was far from what it was three months ago. Its body quickly disappeared and disappeared into the gray mist.
Not long after, the Shadow Snake returned.
Bringing bad news.
As expected, the adult Shadow Snake came out of the mountain and occupied the entire Bronze Mountain as its lair. Its hunting range covered the entire Death Swamp, including the crypt where Gawain lived.
Gawain suddenly lost his sense of security.
At this time, the dwarf Tok climbed out of the crypt, with a puzzled face: "Mr. Gawain, what just happened?"
Gawain glanced at the other party:
"We might have to move."
"ah??"
Dwarf Tok didn't react and asked strangely: "Aren't we living well? Why do we want to move out suddenly?"
Gawain pointed to the Mountain of Bronze and told what happened just now.
After hearing this, the dwarf looked horrified and urged: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's move out quickly. By the way, where are we going to move to? What are Mr. Gawain's plans?"
Gawain thought of Antler Town, and then shook his head. There seemed to be nothing worth remembering there.
The dwarf looked hopeful when he saw this: "Then Mr. Gawain, why don't you take me to the city-state of Kebik? It is the largest and best city-state with a complete system, a huge population, and wizards. It has everything you want. Something, I swear, Mr. Gawain, you will like it there."
"Kebik City State..."
Gawain murmured and shook his head slightly:
"Don't worry yet!"
The dwarf Tok looked disappointed when he heard this, opened his mouth, and did not dare to persuade him any more.
Then Gawain returned to the underground with five crows and the Shadow Snake, and blocked the entrance, preparing to seize the time to engrave the seventeenth rune in order to be promoted to a senior wizard apprentice.
In this way, after learning the three tricks, you will be more confident about where to go.
In the days that followed, Gawain no longer went out, eating, drinking, and sleeping underground, while the adult Shadow Snake began to come in and out of the Death Swamp, hunting and killing.
The screams and sounds of fighting could be heard even underground.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Early that morning, Gawain did not inscribe the will rune, but lay down in front of the insect nest and waited silently. Not long after, a golden earthworm-like creature arched out of the soil and arched back and forth in the insect nest.
"The first one is the borer!"
Gao Wen's face was filled with joy. With this guarantee, half a year's hard work was not in vain.
A while passed.
A red meat worm shed its snail shell and crawled out little by little. Its mouthparts opened and closed, and its body grew and grew, just like a wriggling red leech.
"The second one is a snail!"
Gawain is overjoyed, this means there is another choice.
However, there was no luck next. After waiting for half an hour, no companion worm appeared, which meant that the remaining dozen or so worms all died from the grinding reaction.
"Fortunately, it's borers and snails. They can reproduce by themselves. If it's midges, at least two are needed."
Gawain was a little lucky, his eyes roving back and forth on the golden earthworms and the bloody flesh worms, constantly weighing the pros and cons.
"The borer represents longevity."
"The snail represents the constitution."
"I'm only 14 years old, and my lifespan is not lacking for the time being. Although my physique has nothing to do with wizards, it is also a way to increase my strength. Besides, I also have a one-handed sword that can be transformed into a magic wand."
"It seems that Snail is more suitable for me!"
Gawain made a decision, took out the dagger, and lightly scratched the back of his left hand. Blood came out from the wound. The snails in the insect nest smelled the smell of blood and squirmed faster.
He stretched out his injured left hand and slowly leaned in.
The snail bounced up, stuck to Gawain's skin, and squirmed quickly toward the wound, sucking up all the blood in its path. Then it inserted its mouthpart into the wound, quickly drilled in, and squeezed the entire body into the blood vessel bit by bit. .
Follow the blood flowing in the veins.
At this time, the snail seemed to have arrived in heaven, swallowing blood in big mouthfuls, digesting the impurities in the blood, and excreted more pure blood.
It is like a cow and horse, working non-stop.
And enjoy it.
Half an hour later, the snail finally stopped, and its body began to break from the middle. Then, one split into two. The two snails swallowed blood together, digested impurities, and excreted more pure blood.
"Purifying the blood and then increasing the body's constitution turns out to be such a process."
"The amazing companion insect!"
Gawain smiled, but felt a little regretful, because the snail had been contaminated with his breath and absorbed his blood. It was no longer pure and could not be transferred to others, as that would contaminate other people's blood.
Otherwise, he could make a lot of money just by selling [Snail].
But this is actually just a side effect of the snail. The real purpose is to help the host resist the curse. Now if someone curses Gawain, the snail contaminated by his breath will bear the curse on his behalf.
As long as the snail in his body is alive, Gawain will not be harmed at all.
Of course, this doesn't include the mysterious curse.
Because this curse has been strengthened and solidified by the [Void Spirit], it has completely transcended the scope and boundaries of the curse and reached an incredible level. No wizard can avoid it and can only passively bear it.
Unless the source of the [Void Spirit] is eliminated.
But the [Void Spirit] is a high-dimensional upper god species, one of the seven most powerful in the multiverse. It is not qualified to contact it, and no existence can erase it.
Because of this, the pollution of wizards is almost inevitable, and they can only pursue the truth to fight against the False Spirit.
Then Gawain took out a bottle, put the golden earthworm-like [Moth] in it, and put a magic stone as food. Since he couldn't take it as a companion insect, he had to find an opportunity to sell it.
With the characteristics of Moth to resist the curse and increase lifespan, I believe someone is willing to pay a high price.
After doing this, Gawain devoted himself to engraving the will rune.
Sleepless.
Forget about food and sleep.
Finally, after ten days, he completed the last stroke and engraved the complete 17th will rune in the Deep Sea Meditation Method. His mental power immediately jumped by 0.1 to 5.
At this moment, his mental world expanded and quickly formed three new witchcraft positions, and he was officially promoted to a high-level wizard apprentice!
"Good!"
Gawain was refreshed, and his eyes glanced at the krypton gold panel, and he found that the three zero-ring witchcrafts that he had already analyzed were indeed included in the panel.
[Name]: Gawain*Clover
[Age]: 14
[Physique]: 2.5
[Spirit]: 5
[Magic]: 27/50
[Level]: Senior Wizard Apprentice
[Witchcraft]: Transfiguration lv0 (1%)+; Triple Fireball lv0 (1%)+; Metal Missile lv0 (1%)+
[Pet]: Shadow Snake*Ancient Bloodline (10%)
[Companion Insect]: Snail (8)
[Krypton Gold Points]: 22175.44
......
Not only that, the companion insect [Snail] has multiplied to eight, and the physique has also increased by 0.2 to 2.5. It should be noted that only ten days have passed.
If this continues, his physique will increase to a terrifying level.
Gawain suppressed the excitement in his heart, and his mind clicked continuously, upgrading the three new witchcraft to lv1. At the same time, he also gained a wave of insights and had a new understanding of the three witchcraft.
Among them, the casting of [Transfiguration] requires a medium.
It can be feathers.
It can be scales.
However, there are some taboos, because long-term casting of Transfiguration will make the caster polluted by these media. The more types of transformation, the more serious the pollution.
A few feathers may grow on the head.
A few more scales may appear on the skin.
Like to eat insects.
Like to eat mice.
The above are just minor problems with little impact.
In severe cases, there will be confusion in thinking, unable to distinguish whether they are human or beast. In more serious cases, it may even pollute the bloodline, greatly increasing the possibility of deformity in future generations.
