Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1764 Russell's depression
Although it seems that there are many secrets, it will not affect him for the time being, so Hill still chooses to watch quietly.

In this calculation, neither side can be regarded as a good person... Even if Red Dragon's current position is temporarily consistent with Hill's, it definitely does not mean that Hill will look at him pleasingly.

To be honest, if he can die with Fengo, Hill thinks that is the real good ending.

It's a pity that in the fantasy world, there are countless people who kill people and cheat countless people, and there is never any karma.

What's really scary is doing what you shouldn't do, and offending people you shouldn't... But it's never wrong for a five-color dragon to do evil.

Therefore, Hill knows that he has actually changed a lot, and is becoming more and more adaptable to the real world.

He will even judge calmly when something happens, whether it will cause a shift in the camp... When the other party has not violated certain bottom line rules, even if he knows how evil the other party is, he will Still able to communicate with it calmly.

When he left Trasil, Hill couldn't do this... Although at that time he wouldn't complain about other people's lives, he definitely wouldn't communicate with those people.

In Hill's temperament at that time, he still had a strong sense of cleanliness.

But the danger of being involved in one of Toril's most horrific fates at the most unexpected times changed him in that regard.

Fortunately, there is always an unchangeable characteristic in his temperament: the soul of the past life makes him a little alienated from everything in this life.

Except for himself and the family and friends who walked into his indifferent protective layer, other existences always bring some indescribable sense of dislocation.

That is, after knowing where the world I am in is, even if I can confirm that this is the real world, I can't get rid of the so-called "sense of wearing a book".

Even after he infers again and again and suffers again and again, he wants to understand that he is a real person, and the world he lives in is also a real world... Even the appearance of the undead has helped him prove a lot.

However, the torture of not being able to talk to anyone did make him really give up everything except the people he cared about.

Therefore, when many people observe Hill, they feel that he is very contradictory... so contradictory that people cannot start.

Obviously, from the perspective of doing things, it looks like a good camp.

But from his attitude towards people and dealing with things, he can only see the style of the neutral camp.

Therefore, Toril observed some of Hill's "existent" creatures, and after confirming that he had a good communication with Lansander, he completely gave up the desire to start with him.

The most terrible of all worlds, this world, that world, ever appealing to kindness and warm neutrality, was Ransander.

Although it is impossible to see whether Hill is really crazy, but... as long as there is a little possibility, those people with ulterior motives will not provoke him.

The undead are actually not that scary, beings of the same level as AO can deny their entry.

The dreadful thing was, what if Hill was half Ransander?
Therefore, the only real threats to Hill now are the demon lords with surnames in the bottomless abyss, and the powerful grand dukes in the nine hells.

Only they are not afraid of killing him.

Hill pursed his lips, then tilted his head and thought for a while. He felt that the red dragon's disgust in his heart was not enough to make him waste his blessing, so he suppressed the urge to speak and continued to focus on his magic. in the book.

If the Styx breath gets heavier, some evocation spells and enchantment spells may really be useless.

Whether to develop these spells in the direction of Styx spells, or it is better to change them to pure general-purpose ones...that is, the type that can be used in any world even though the power will be discounted...he needs to think about it carefully.

Carpenter touched his magic book and was a little confused: "Brother Russell, our teacher, why are all the spells...well, the ones in the faction's magic book... a bit different?"

"This is the result of the teacher's own modification after studying the standard runes." Russell explained calmly, "Therefore, there are only the first and second rings, and the rest can only be learned after the teacher comes out."

"Just show me one ring, please," said Carpenter decisively.

"Don't be ignorant of good and evil." Russell tapped her head, "The reason why the teacher had to sort out these spells for us before he retreated is because there are many spells between the first-level and second-level spells. related.

Especially the illusion you are good at, if you learn it by comparison, even if your mental power can't let you learn more advanced spells, the description of the runes can make it easier for you to understand. "

Carpenter slapped his hand off, turned around and looked up at him seriously: "Brother Russell, are you serious about talking human?
When I can't even understand the spells of level 1, the runes of level 2 are just a burden for me, okay? "

"It's always good to read more." Russell didn't change his face, "Maybe a rune will resonate with you!"

Carpenter lowered his head and thought for a while: "If I promise that I will never take a step closer to the entrance of the secret passage unless I get your permission, can I get an amnesty?"

"Well...you plan to read it through first, don't you?" Russell narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Then, okay~
Here is the whole ring of magic. After a month, I hope you can finish reading it and have a deeper understanding of a certain spell.

Especially illusion.

By the way, you should have learned the disguise technique and the silent phantom, right?

And ventriloquism... right? "

"Yes." Carpenter helplessly tugged at the long lock of hair on his chest... Russell knew her study progress too well, and knew exactly how her mixed magic was useful.

Even if she wanted to hide it, she couldn't do it.

In fact, Carpenter didn't want to hide it from Russell... But she was a little worried about whether she could learn new spells in a short time, so she was a little, um, hesitant.

"Then come on~" Russell pushed her back, "Dear Carpenter, I really hope that when we meet again, you will tell me good news that will make me feel happy."

Carpenter filled the table with books, and asked in a confused tone, "What kind of news can make you so satisfied?"

"Of course, there is news about new tricks in the illusion department, general purpose department, and evocation department." Russell replied with a smile.

"My brother Russell, how much have you learned now?"

"All of the Protection Department and the Universal Department, half of the Evocation Department, and the Prophecy Department is a bit weak, only one third.

As for the others... I only learned two of the Enchanting Department, and I haven't started with the Illusion Department and the Transformation Department. "Russell said frankly, "I also know that I am a bit biased, so I am trying to feel the change system as much as possible recently.

As for the illusion... It is estimated that the colorful spray is easier for me and has a chance of success, so I am not too anxious. "

Carpenter straightened up and said in a low voice, "I don't need to ask this question, it's really..."

"What?" It's not that Russell didn't hear, he didn't understand...For some reason, his view of his own progress is slightly different from that of normal people in this world.

"I will study hard." But Carpenter is still a normal person, so she only thinks that her brother is making her study hard.

Although there was a rare situation where he couldn't communicate with his sister, after all, the result was what he wanted... Russell didn't say anything more, and watched his sister disappear into the corridor with a smile.

He wasn't really as relaxed as he made it out to be.

Although, because of Gilbert's silence, this brawl started with Heinelson, but Heinelson was not qualified to speak at all, and in the end, their family was completely excluded... Siege Pruitt and Rolando If successful, some benefits will naturally flow to the participants.

Gilbert's disappearance, at this time, became the reason for the Heinelson family to be excluded... He kept silent, so naturally no one would bring his family to participate in the spoils meeting.

Although the Heinelson family didn't really hurt their bones, after this chaos, there was only a mess left.

There will always be people who like to play the 'know it' thing, especially people of noble birth.

They don't necessarily know that they only have that choice, but they will definitely shout "Why didn't you..."

To Russell's embarrassment, there were his family members.

In fact, he could understand a little bit, what those uncles were thinking... Among the people who betrayed the family this time, several of them were the original elders.

They were all those who offended Gilbert back then.

But they have the ability to hinder Gilbert, naturally because they have strength and power, so although their departure will make the family lose face... only Ulrich's faction who doesn't feel or even is happy, the others are not. would really feel so.

For those who like to talk about family cohesion, family infighting is something that should not appear on the table.

Therefore, even though they always knew that there was a secret struggle between Ulrich and these people, the remaining irrelevant power holders have been pretending to be stupid... pretending to be ordinary family members.

It's a pity that the chaos this time made everything impossible to cover up, and all the people who should go have gone.

But there will always be people who feel that if Ulrich hadn't become a mage, if he hadn't been determined not to forgive... those people are not irreparable.

Therefore, they showed an attitude that they did not want people from the Ulrich faction to take over these vacated forces.

Smart people naturally ignore such a stupid idea, but there are always people who are stupid.

Russell just didn't expect that someone in his family would be so stupid.
