Throne of Magical Arcana

Towards the early morning, Lucien experienced many magical experiments, and finally learned and mastered "Star Eye", "Frost Ray", "Light Forbiddenness", "Mage's Hand" and "Acid Sputtering" "Five informal magic, as learned yesterday, and tried the" out-of-control ring "of spell-free casting, Lucien stabilized the casting time at about three seconds.

Compared with the witch's own records, Lucien found that she parsed magic, learned magic, and mastered the time of magic, which was a bit amazingly fast. Except for the "out of control ring" that the witch did not understand and forced to master, the elemental magic "acid she was good at" "Sputtering", "Frost Rays" are generally three to four days, twenty hours, hundreds of magic experiments plus casting exercises to analyze and master, and Lucien, "acid sputtering" used five The "frost ray" was used seven times and the "Eye of the Stars" was used ten times. Only the "light forbidden technique" was mastered only thirty times because of insufficient analysis and understanding in advance.

In Lucien's view, this is mainly because the spell structure seems to be based on a mathematical model, and then integrates his own understanding of this magic construction process, and the model structure of informal magic is just a simple rune graphic, equivalent to the six-pointed star. The degree of plane geometry in junior and high school, after reviewing the literature in the library for a while, the analysis of most informal magic has become very simple.

Lucien also relied on past knowledge to understand the magical construction process. For example, "acid sputtering" was used to make sulfuric acid from sulfur. However, when the light was banned, Lucien could not rely on previous knowledge to understand However, it can only be assumed that the reverse destruction of the "fluorescent grass" structure can allow it to actively absorb light without reflection, and the result is not bad, but it is not good. It has been mastered many times.

This made Lucien reflect on himself: "Don't rely too much on the knowledge of the past. The magic of this world should have its unique place. Although some of the knowledge of physics and chemistry can be combined, the other has to be slowly resolved. After all, The elements and rules of this world are likely to be different from that of the earth, which is plausible, such as the precious materials such as the mysterious silver and fine gold recorded by the witch.

As for the "Ring of Control", Lucien fully understands that it is magic under gravity, so he can reduce the casting time to the current limit so quickly.

After restoring his spirit with a ten-minute quiet rest, Lucien began to simply deal with the traces left, such as the corroded stone surface.

"The power of informal magic is indeed not strong enough. Frost rays can only kill an adult directly if they hit the heart and throat, causing cardiac arrest and suffocation. Otherwise, all three frost rays will hit. If only After hitting it, at most people suffer severe frostbite, slow movements and thinking, acid splashing also has to hit the key due to the concentration and strength of the acid. "Lucien calmly analyzed what she would Apprentice-level magic is not much disappointment. Although many magics don't look strong, as long as they are used well, the effects are equally amazing on specific occasions and at specific times.

After processing the traces, Lucien kept the casting materials in his pocket concealed and easily accessible, and then continued to explore the sewers by the slum outlets without returning to the ground.

This is because Lucien considered that if you want to find the black corpse mushrooms, you must first find the carrion. In the case where the cemetery is likely to be secretly monitored by the church, except for the dead beasts and humans in the Black Forest of Merzel The sewer is the only place where there is hope to find carrion. After all, many poor people and beggars living here do not necessarily have shrouds. If friends and relatives who are not known are nearby, it is not ruled out that no one knows the quiet The possibility of still death in the sewers is not rare, as are dead animals and rotten flesh that have been thrown away from the sewers.

And the witch has also explored in the sewer, initially for the black corpse mushroom, and later to find the origin of the red-eyed mouse, but they have never encountered danger, so Lucien dare to explore this sewer first.

…………

The mental power spread, and vaguely felt around, Lucian walked carefully in the sewer.

Over the past 20 minutes, Lucien has explored several places and found three carrion corpses, two mice and a strange jelly-shaped animal, but unfortunately none of them have black corpse mushrooms growing on them.

Turning around a corner, Lucien opened up in front of her eyes, and finally found the beggars living in the sewers.

The sewer in this section is very wide, and there is a dark river flowing quietly with some garbage in the middle. It will flow all the way to the outlet and merge into the Belem River. On each side of the stone corridors, there is a row of rags , Crocks and other things, and several beggars whose clothes are so ragged to show a lot of skin are gathered on the side of the channel, not knowing what to do.

Lucien saw that it was just a beggar, did not avoid it, and that he had been found, so he steadily wanted to pass through the other side of the channel.

"Young man, the sewer is not the place you should come from. What purpose do you have?" An old man who appeared to be in his sixties, with protruding ribs and abnormal shrivels, could hear his voice, but At most about forty years old.

No matter how Sean wore the linen jacket, it was worn, cheap, and unable to hide the identity of the poor. Compared with these beggars, it was as gorgeous as the nobility, at least it would not rot to the point where most of the skin was exposed, At least it was very clean, so the old man recognized at a glance that Lucien was not an "indigenous" of the sewer.

Lucien replied with a smile: "I have a friend who lives in the sewer, I came to find him." The words are confident and decent, and it seems that these beggars are not in the eyes, because in this dark sewer without law If you do n’t want to cause the greed of these beggars, it ’s the best way to show yourself strong.

Behind the thin old man, several other beggars stood up, staring at Lucien with a vicious and greedy look, but Lucien glanced at them without showing his weakness, showing his fairly strong figure and faintly sending out Hanguang's dagger.

This made them subconsciously avoid Lucien's gaze.

Looking at Lucien walking forward step by step, the shrivelled old man suddenly laughed: "Young man, I don't think you are dressed well, and you have a dagger in your hand. It seems to have done something unjustified. "

Lucien was a little surprised that he would talk to himself. After thinking about it, he replied coldly: "It has nothing to do with you."

The shrivelled old man chuckled: "No matter what, it can be seen that you are having a hard time. Since young people like you who work so hard and so hard can't eat white bread and beef every day, I think it is definitely not your fault. Truth The gods tell us that everyone is the Lamb of the Lord, but why the nobles can live a luxurious life, but the poor people who piously believe in him can not change their destiny, everyone is also born with sin! "

"I'm not interested in what you say, don't talk to me anymore." Lucian's tone was cold.

Although the shrivelled old man said very obscurely, he did not leave a handle, and it was certainly unclear to change others, but from his words, Lucian smelled a familiar taste, that is, the taste of being preached, Judging from what he meant, it was definitely not the truth religion. As for the other gods or the devil, Lucien is not interested for the time being. If he does not have enough strength, he hastily contacts these, which is to find his own way.

He was not allowed to say too much because the more he knew, the less he could leave. Under the control of the Truth, spreading other denominations, it was absolutely the crime of getting on fire, and these beggars would not risk leaking information danger.

The shrivelled old man and several beggars did not expect that Lucien would refuse to be so simple and direct, and could not help but stare at Lucien with anger, as if blasphemy for precious things.

"Want to try my dagger?" Lucien shook the dagger in her hand, and then walked away calmly and steadily.

While intersecting them with the sewer underneath the river, Lucian was keenly aware that in the place where they had previously surrounded, a clean black cloth was placed with a curved, shining silver horn. .

The slender old man recalled what he said and felt that he had not disclosed anything, just like a complaint of an ordinary poor, but he concentrated his complaint on the nobility, and at the same time he measured the age and body of Lucien State, the dagger in his hand, then sat down helplessly.

…………

After leaving the beggars and walking through the sewer for more than ten minutes, the sound of water in Lucien's ears suddenly sounded louder.

"It seems to be at the water outlet. It should be by the Belem River." Lucian saw the dark river become slightly turbulent and flowed to a hole covered by a large wire fence, so he walked slowly on the side. Then, looking for the carrion in the most dense place of garbage.

Lucien didn't find anything until he walked to the barbed wire. He was slightly disappointed and prepared to return to the ground.

But when Lucien turned around and glanced casually at the part where the barbed wire was in contact with the water, he was surprised to find that there was no place where the barbed wire was in contact with the water a little below when the fluorescent light was shining and the water wave was shaking.

With curiosity, Lucien walked over to the side, shook it, lifted the barbed wire, and looked at it carefully. There must be a small hole under the barbed wire.

Before it was too late to judge whether it was spoiled or destroyed by man, Lucien saw a large black object slowly floating up in front of herself, as if it was due to the violent shaking of the barbed wire just now.

When it slowly floated to the surface, under the impact of the dark river and hitting the barbed wire, Lucien saw clearly that this was an inflated body, and the muscles on his face and body had rotted a lot. The silhouette was faintly recognized, the clothes were full of garbage, and some were very buoyant.

Lucian Enqiang resisted the disgust of seeing the carrion, carefully looking for the black corpse mushroom on him. Although there is not much hope, after all, it is soaked in water, maybe there are surprises?

Looking at it, Lucian frowned, because the cause of death of this corpse was strange, his chest was broken, and he just touched it with a dagger, and found that his heart was gone, and it looked like It was dug alive.

"Who is so cruel?" Lucien looked up and down at the corpse. Suddenly, on the corpse's waist, a tangled purse was found. "Why is it familiar?"

With a dagger, Lucien took a closer look: "This is my purse!"

This was Lucien who was snatched away by the gangster thugs, but did not have time to get back the money bag. It appeared on a deadly spooky carcass in the sewer.

Surprised, disgusted, Lucien looked at the face of the corpse again:

"Andre?"

With an idea in mind, the more Lucien looked more like, how could Andrea of ​​the Aaron gang die here?!
