Lord Hunter needs a commission
Page 77
"Ok?"
Charlotte, who was on the road all night and was so sad that she needed to run to Winterhold College with her feet, was slightly taken aback by a cyan light.Then he saw the Magnus staff held by him in his left hand, which was slightly brightened, and then dimmed again.
"what happened?"
Charlotte stopped and looked around vigilantly, but found nothing, then looked at the staff in his hand, and after checking, he found nothing wrong.
"Strange, why did this thing light up by itself?"
Charlotte, who didn't know why, started running again without thinking too long, but she was a little distracted halfway, paying attention to the staff in her hand and the surrounding environment to avoid any unexpected situations.
However, until he ran for a long time, ran all the way back to Winterhold College, and handed over the staff to the chief mage Aran, he didn't encounter any strange things, so he put this little matter behind him.
……
'Where am I? On the dense fog-filled lake, the figure of the Lich appeared here from scratch, and looked around suspiciously.
Because it is an unreal world, even a lich with only a pure consciousness, after entering here, soon realized that he had the feeling of being alive again.
Yes, the conscious self, but now he has regained a body, and it is still a breathing and heartbeating body.
'I am, alive... No, no, this is the space of consciousness or soul, the world of pure spirit. '
"That's right, this is the plane where only the spirit can stay." At this moment, a voice of Yingying and Yanyu sounded behind the Lich, answering the Lich's question.
On its back, a silver-haired girl with a sweet smile came to welcome another... food that was automatically delivered to her door.
Chapter 178
As a spellcaster, even if he failed to reach the so-called legendary realm due to various reasons, the Lich Moloji still has his own special skills.
This can be seen from its ability to master the nine-ring spell, and the ability to release the blue storm equivalent to the enhanced version of the energy-absorbing spell with the help of the Magnus rod, it is still somewhat standard.
And its highest achievement is nothing else, but the research on the artifact Magnus Staff that it has mastered for a long time.
This staff has no fancy means, neither increases the strength of the user, nor has any magical spells attached to it. Compared with the Staff of the Archmage, it is not famous at all.
But considering that the staff of Magnus can absorb all kinds of energy and even life force, this staff is not to be underestimated, and the lich who can study this staff and achieve some incomparably great results is indeed of a certain level , not as watery as Charlotte imagined.
And the highest achievement of the Lich is to use the Staff of Magnus as his phylactery.
Using a staff that can be called an artifact as his phylactery, this lich has undoubtedly accomplished a feat.
After all, an artifact is equivalent to the extension of its creator's will. If anyone is really foolish enough to put his soul in an artifact, it is almost equivalent to turning himself into a slave of the owner of the artifact.
The Rod of Magnus, however, has no owner, perhaps once, but certainly not.Therefore, using an immortal artifact as a phylactery is almost equivalent to no one in this world can completely destroy it.
It is not impossible to destroy a divine weapon, but who would deliberately destroy a weapon that can bring strength and power to oneself?Unless that person is really a saint in some sense, otherwise, even a legendary spellcaster will only seal the artifact that he cannot use, instead of destroying it.
It has to be said that the Lich Moloui has a very good plan.
With the staff of Magnus as the phylactery, even if its body is destroyed, the soul will return to the staff, waiting for the staff to be picked up by the new owner, and then it will let the soul sneak into the staff In the hands of the new master, use a long time to influence and corrupt the other party little by little... until he obtains the body of the new master of the staff.
If nothing else.
Unfortunately, in this world, such things as accidents abound.
How many people know that the one who really ended the era of the rule of the gods was not some once-in-a-lifetime hero, not some evil god, nor some great magical civilization.
It was a bald barbarian accidentally summoned by two gods.
Today, the lich Moloi is also facing the unexpected situation that once faced the god of wizards and gods of prophecy.
However, the god of mages and the god of prophecy saw the oncoming chain blade before death, while what the lich saw was... an indescribable shadow that cannot be described in words.
'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! ! '
A scream came out of the lich's mouth. It was clearly manifested in the state of the soul. At this moment, the eyes burst open, and blood mixed with tears flowed down from the empty eye sockets.
Almost in one encounter, the white tentacles protruding from the emptiness of the moonlight cruelly tore apart its soul.
Then came the creepy chewing and swallowing sounds.
At this moment, the Lich is facing a terrible situation where the soul is torn off by people, and then bitten and swallowed before its eyes.
Of course, it was lucky, at least the moment it screamed and its soul was torn apart and devoured, the originally endless white mist rolled up into a turbulent wave.
The sword lights of eight colors split the endless mist, and finally mixed into a divine sword made of spar, and slashed down, hitting the soul of the Lich accurately, and annihilating it.
"I only ate one-third of it, as for? Demigod?"
The silver-haired girl giggled, with a seductive smile on her face, but her right body turned into countless curly and dry tentacles wriggling.
No one responded to her question, only to see that the divine sword that had wiped out the Lich's soul with a single blow, with a blue radiance, cut out a ray of sword light, strangling her figure to death.
Afterwards, the Excalibur pierced through the air and disappeared, and the lake surface shrouded in mist regained its calm.
……
There were many troubles along the way, but what Charlotte didn't expect was that the return journey was so smooth.
Along the way, nothing happened, neither bandits nor unexpected situations.
Walking along the dirt road, after a few days, Charlotte returned to the College of Winterhold, and the only trouble he encountered was that he had to run back with his legs.
"It's really unexpected!" Charlotte sighed with emotion in a low voice.
"What unexpected?" Caroline asked. "what happens?"
"No, it's nothing." Charlotte casually handed the Magnus staff to the chief mage Aran, not caring about this powerful staff at all, and then said to Kallen. "Remember to pay!"
"...Hey, hey, I haven't seen you for a few days. When you came back, you didn't want to greet me, but to talk about money?"
Kallen's eyes widened, she looked at Charlotte in disbelief and said.
"Talking about money hurts feelings, am I not as good as those [-] golden dragons?"
"It's not comparable." Charlotte replied with a righteous face. "Do you want to default?"
"No." Caroline laughed. "I just want to ask, if [-] gold dragons can let you run errands, how much can you spend a wonderful night with me... I'm not short of money."
"...Sorry, Senior White Wolf and I are not on the same path."
"Actually, I think you might as well learn from your predecessors," Karen said. "Especially that senior who is code-named White Wolf and nicknamed Sorceress Piledriver, he is worth learning from."
"Stop talking nonsense, isn't your mind all about love?"
An Jie at the side pushed Karen with a cold face, then grabbed the latter's arm and pulled her away.
"Hey, An Jie, I actually don't mind if you come to be the mistress."
"Shut up, you idiot."
"..."
The two girls made a lot of noise as they walked, leaving Charlotte alone, walking towards the college hall.
And Charlotte, who stayed where she was, thought carefully about Senior White Wolf's style of work and current living conditions, and then took a look at her own personal moral integrity, and then resolutely eliminated the option of eating soft food from her mind.
Even if he, Charlotte, starved to death and was heavily in debt, he would never sell his body to eat soft food.
absolute.
Chapter 179 Can you do whatever you want with money
The power of capital and money, Charlotte only had a general concept in the past, and the only intuitive feeling was that the resources needed to build a giant sea ship were an astronomical figure for him.
And a steel ship drifting on the sea has reached the point where Charlotte can't even make up a fraction, so what about a giant ship in the sky?
As a world with such things as magic, it is not as difficult to fly into the sky as imagined.Even ordinary worlds can manufacture airships, so it is not impossible for this world to manufacture a steel airship.
But now, there is a huge airship breaking through the clouds and slowly descending directly above Winterhold College. The shadow it casts blocks the few sunlight. Sky Behemoth.
"It's so big!"
Looking up at the airship that landed, Charlotte looked at the airship that landed, and estimated how much effort it would take to destroy the airship in her heart, before she couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
It may take a while to chop and cut with sword energy alone. Unless you use the unfinished version of the fire phoenix soaring with the holy fire of the sky, otherwise you want to shoot down this behemoth, even if you throw out the Sword Emperor. No tricks are possible.
This is the most intuitive embodiment of power brought by industry.
After all, this kind of airship is said to be mass-produced, and it can fly at a height of [-] meters. Although it does not have any offensive weapons on the surface, it can carry large-yield bombs and happily fly high above your head. Parabolic work.
The magic of the legendary mage can't hit the height of thousands of meters.
Charlotte remembered that in the early days of the Federation, in a rebellion caused by the druid cult, it was hundreds of airships carrying high explosives that forcibly turned the valley occupied by the druid cult into a sea of flames.
Those extreme environmental protection and streaking activists thought that they were staying in the complex forests and mountains, and the federal army couldn't do anything to them, but they didn't know that they were blasted to death by the army with steel and equivalent.
As for why there was a military airship that parachuted to Winterhold College, of course it was not used for bombing, but used as a means of transportation.
After bringing back the Staff of Magnus, the Eye of Magnus, which has always been a potential uneasy factor, was closed by the chief mage holding the staff, preventing it from becoming a super bomb. threaten.
After solving this problem, the chief mage Aran asked Kallen to notify the people of the Church of Destiny to transport the two sets of artifacts away together.
After all, with such a tricky thing, no one can feel at ease saying that it stays in the College of Winterhold, not to mention the experience of being targeted by a group of terrorists before.
Look, except for the Stormcloaks, which are not so popular organizations that only stir up troubles in the province of Skyrim, the other ones are the permanent guests on the wanted list, such as the Dark Brotherhood, the Red Robe Mage, and the Druid Cultists. .
Although Winterhold Academy is not afraid of these guys, it does not intend to contract this fire pit either.
Therefore, it is natural to throw the pot away.
Moreover, the Church of Destiny is very happy to contain this kind of old antiques excavated from the ground, and is even more willing to attract those cultists on the way back.
Although strictly speaking, the Church of Destiny is actually one of the official violent organizations, but on the surface it is a genuine legal religious organization, and it should be obligatory to deal with cultists who endanger social security.
"The Zeppelin, one of the private armies of the Church of Destiny."
Unlike Charlotte's exclamation, the two well-informed girls, Kallen and An Jie, didn't have any expressions, as if they were used to it.Moreover, Kallen also showed a proud expression, and said something that surprised Charlotte.
"My personal airship."
"Huh?" Charlotte widened her pale golden pupils and looked at Kallen. "What did you say?"
"This thing is mine, it's my personal car." Karen pointed to the airship that was landing in an open space not far away, with the evil face of a rich man. "Although it is officially the armament of the Church of Destiny, in fact, the standard of ownership is my name."
She looked at Charlotte's expression of doubting life, and the sense of sight of the poor all over her body, and added meaningfully. "As I said, I'm not short of money."
Nima, all airships are private, why don't you say that you also have a private luxury cruise ship?
"That's right." As if hearing Charlotte's heartfelt voice, Karen snapped her fingers and continued. "This airship was my birthday present when I was ten years old, and my birthday present this year is a 4-ton luxury cruise ship called the Titanic."
"..."
For the first time, Charlotte clearly realized how big the gap was between a poor ghost like herself who was on the edge of society, who was doing gray jobs and had a meal, and a real rich person.
That is not the gap between heaven and earth, but the difference between the fate of the European emperor and the fate of the non-chieftain.
Wow, if you think about it this way, I really want to learn from the rich life experience of Senior White Wolf, especially when it comes to eating soft rice...
Shaking his head, Charlotte put the above unrealistic thoughts behind him, and firmly guaranteed that his integrity level would not drop due to the power of capital and money.
Just as he was thinking wildly, the airship finally landed, and the chief mage, Aran, also held the staff of Magnus, followed by several mages, and together used spells to bring down the staff of Magnus in the hall. Eye moved out.
"Please, Ms. Kaslana."
"It's okay, I should be the one who said thank you for your cooperation, Your Excellency the chief mage."
After some negotiations, the personnel who got off the airship quickly completed the handover work, took over the Eye of Magnus from the academy, fixed it with an instrument, and put it into a huge box In the middle, it was transported to the airship.
Then, Kallen reached out and picked up the Magnus staff handed over by the chief mage Aran.
After receiving the staff, Karen turned around and said to Charlotte. "By the way, you have to come with us."
"why?"
"Don't you want a reward?"
"...Can't you transfer the money?"
"Try which bank will transfer money to Wan Jinlong from an ordinary account." Karen said. "Even if I can accommodate someone, the tax bureau will charge you at least 20.00% of the tax...or you want to lose more than 1 golden dragons."
"..."
"Don't forget, the [-] golden dragons are not in your hands yet." Seeing Charlotte hesitate, Karen said angrily. "Aren't you afraid that I will break the contract?"
"you dare."
"I dare to chase you back, see if I dare not give you money so that you will always miss me."
"Can you do whatever you want with money?"
"Sorry, I don't know if I can do whatever I want with money." Karen smiled confidently. "But as a rich man, I can almost do whatever I want with a poor ghost like Charlotte."
