Headshot Wizard - Chapter 111
Chapter 111 The Mysterious Canyon
“What day is today? The Undead Riot? Or is there a party together…”
Seeing this scene, Lance couldn’t help but feel cold behind his back. He hurried back to the house and ran out holding a big bag of silver cross piles.
These cross piles were very heavy at first, and Lance estimated that these things should be silver-plated, and they might be mixed with a lot of lead or other metals.
According to the instructions of the gray-robed mage before leaving, Lance rushed to the nearest grave.
The bone skull in this tomb had its head halfway up, and it raised its shriveled head. Who knew that with a snap, the skull’s head fell directly from its neck. It stretched out its hand and touched it in confusion, trying to find its head.
Lance calmed down and kicked the skull’s head back beside it. Then he held up a cross pile and slammed it in front of the tombstone.
The silver cross pile was just inserted into the soil by Lance, and under the action of a mysterious force, it slowly dissolved and poured into the soil.
The reddish-brown soil flashed a faint silver light in an instant, and the silver light moved along the soil, and finally climbed onto the skeleton. The skeleton’s hand bones and skull were immediately marked with a silver cross mark by silver light.
After a while, the skeleton stopped moving, but slowly sank.
Lance wiped his sweat and let out a long breath. As expected, the gray-robed mage did not deceive him, and the silver cross piles could indeed suppress these bones.
He looked around and saw that within a few miles, at least one-third of the tombs began to tremble, and a large number of bones and skeletons were drilling out of the tomb. Some of the agile movements have actually crawled out completely.
Fortunately, although these skeletons look scary, their actual combat ability is almost zero. It is completely different from the skeleton soldiers or even the skeleton mage under the control of the Necromancer.
Lance started his busy suppression with a lot of cross pile cards. He ran from this tomb to the front of the other, smashing the cross piles one by one. For some dishonest guys, Lance was not polite, but simply kicked them back into the grave.
According to Fox’s estimation, the power of these skeletons does not exceed 0.4, which is not Lance’s opponent at all. In addition to being a little scary at first, Lance’s nerves became numb later.
Even if those skeletons’ movements were hideous and terrifying, Lance remained indifferent. He is like a machine on an assembly line, running around holding a lot of cross piles, completing his tasks mechanically.
This busy, busy for most of the night.
In the middle of the night, Lance himself didn’t remember how many skeletons he had kicked over or how many ribs he had broken.
“Huh! It’s finally done!”
Lance inserted the last silver cross pile into a tomb that was so desolate that there were no tombstones, and then lifted his eyes on his hips and panted and looked around. He suppressed all the rioting skeletons in the entire cemetery.
And this tomb is already the last one.
This place is almost two miles away from his cabin, and it is already on the border of the cemetery. To Lance’s left hand, there is a tall fence. Beyond the fence, it is completely outside the sphere of influence of Scarlet Castle.
He stood there, rested for a while, and then walked towards the iron fence.
There are densely painted runes on the fence. These runes can protect the cemetery from intruders, but they have no effect on Lance. Because his identity was confirmed by Shitai as early as when he entered, he was free to enter and leave the cemetery. For him, these iron fences are not obstacles at all.
However, he had no plans to cross the iron fence, and he was exhausted physically and mentally after working most of the night.
He just stood there and looked at the things outside the iron fence curiously, after all, he had never been here before.
“It looks very desolate. Outside the fence, it belongs to the wild area of Ferendor.” Lance squinted and looked out.
In front is a wide small plain, and not far away, an ancient and long mountain range stands proudly. At the end of the line of sight, Lance could still see a gorge that the mountain range opened towards this side.
There is no grass on the plain, just like in the cemetery, there is no life at all.
The moonlight shone, and the night wind rustled, adding a cold breath.
Lance was sweating profusely and was too hot, but was not infected by the cold atmosphere. He stood there and watched for a while, feeling extremely boring, just about to turn around and leave, who knew that at this moment, a sharp wailing suddenly came from behind him!
Lance turned around abruptly, his eyes condensed in the distant gorge!
“That voice… where did it come from?” Lance looked in that direction with some anxiety.
The wailing sound just now was exactly the same as the sound he heard when he was preparing to make fog matches in the hut!
At first he thought it was a skeleton that was screaming ghosts, but later, in the process of suppression, he found that these skeletons could not make any sound at all.
That terrifying scream was undoubtedly not from something in the cemetery.
“What is there in that gorge?” Lance stood there and looked at it for a while, for a long while, no other movement came out.
He was silent for a while, then turned and left.
Although he is very curious about what is in the canyon, he now has no need to take risks for these unknown things.
“As long as you don’t break into the cemetery, it doesn’t matter to me.” Lance thought to himself, anyway, there are a lot of magic restrictions set up near the cemetery. Lance is in it and is absolutely protected, so it is very safe.
This is also one of the reasons why he chose to guard the cemetery as a part-time job.
…
In the next few nights, nothing happened in the cemetery, and Lance didn’t have to run around all night. Except during the daytime the next day, when he went to the logistics department in the castle to replenish the silver cross pile, he did not leave the cabin for half a step.
That is, the dead gems don’t need to be bothered, just input the magic power regularly every day. The mist matches are also relatively time-saving and energy-saving magical items. After Lance has completed the initial processing, it only needs to wait for a while before it can be dried and formed.
He allocated more time and energy to the deconstruction and memory of spells. Even the daily meditation time was compressed by him as much as possible. Because he knows that even if he continues to meditate, his level of magic power is difficult to improve-the magic factors in the cemetery are very dull, and more are some impurities mixed with necromantic aura. In other words, this place is actually very unsuitable for meditation. of.
This is why most people are not interested in accepting this task. But Lance himself was very open. Anyway, the quality of his meditation was not high. Before that special magic factor was researched out by him, he decided to use potion as his main means to enhance his magical power.
What’s more frustrating is that these days, Lance also made some comparisons between the Arcane Ring and the Mysterious Bottle, and found that the two had no similarities except for exuding magic factors of the same nature. Lance tried to absorb the magic factors around the mysterious little bottle, but unexpectedly, the little bottle had a very strong ability to attract these magic factors. Lance was so strong that it was difficult to grab even a trace from the little bottle. The spell factor.
After trying several times, he could only give up temporarily. As for the materials in the apprentice library, he also tried several times, but he still couldn’t get the relevant records. The main reason is that the information about rare spell factors requires higher authority. As a self-financed student, Lance is unable to access such advanced information for the time being.
Unless he asks Katerina for help, but if he does, it is likely to cause Katerina’s suspicion. And in the bottom of Lance’s heart, he would never go to Catalina unless he had to. He hoped that in front of Katerina, he could keep his secrets as much as possible.
“Maybe you can try Regis, he is a master of pharmacy after all, and he certainly knows a lot.”
Lance repeatedly sketched the rune of [Magic-Electromagnetic Acceleration] on the paper, while thinking in a daze.
