Twenty Sided Dice

The biggest benefit brought by the recent period of study is to make up for the problem of Siegel's partiality in spells. Being good at elemental spells and summoning spells does not make you the best mage, only mastering divination spells can give you an advantage.

This advantage lies in being able to hide themselves better, in being able to detect dangers in advance, and in being able to obtain the information they need.

It's about being able to find what you want.

The use of positioning is very extensive, as long as things that are not deliberately concealed can be found. However, this spell also has great limitations, and the thing to be found must be very familiar to the mage. Earlier, Siegel thought this spell was very magical, and he couldn't understand the principle of the spell at all. Later, after consulting other mages, I realized that this spell does not rely on divination to find things, but analyzes the remaining information around.

Although people can see, hear, smell, taste, and touch, there are limits to perception, and too much information will always be missed. Positioning is actually helping the mage collect and filter the surrounding perception information, compare it with what he is looking for, and then get guidance.

Siegel depicted a magic circle to increase the area of ​​effect of the location spell and allow it to work across flowing water. Just as a hound cannot cross a river to track the scent of its prey, neither can a location spell without the support of a magic circle. As for what to look for, mages try trolls first. He still had a fresh memory of this kind of creature. After becoming a knight's attendant, his opponent in the first independent battle was the troll.

Their smells, images, and voices were kept in Siegel's mind, along with their ferocity, evil, and deceit.

The magic circle lit up, and Siegel stood in the circle and concentrated on casting spells silently. The remaining information in the surrounding air was mobilized to form a hazy picture in his field of vision. There are indeed trolls infested here. They used to fetch water nearby. Siegel focused his attention on the direction the ogre had left, and finally caught the freshest breath.

Looking in that direction, Siegel felt that he was getting closer and closer to the ogre. The location spell told him that there were three ogres ahead, hiding in a burrow hidden by a bush. No wonder it can't be seen from the air, Siegel thought. These guys are really good at hiding.

The sun was now high in the sky, and Siegel knew he was not far from the enemy. He told More to tie his horse to a tree at a distance, armed with his weapon, and come over. The young knight attendant learned a good hand with Mana in archery, and Siegel just didn't want him to fight the trolls in close quarters.

The enemy is hidden underground, which makes detection very difficult. () If the mage's familiar chooses a mouse, this is now easily resolved. But that doesn't mean Siegel has nothing to do with this situation. He summoned a small scorpion, and cast the arcane eye on it. This spell allows the wizard to observe images around him through planted magical eyes, even in a dark environment. It doesn't return any sound though - it's just an eye, not an ear, after all.

The scorpion burrowed into the bushes under Siegel's orders, found a gap under the ground, and got in. Inside is a damp, dark oblique passage. It was five meters deep, just enough for the troll to hide under the roots of the tree. In addition to the three ugly trolls with their torso up, Siegel saw three human men bound by chains and tied to large rocks. One of them was long dead, and only a thin layer of skin remained on his head and shoulders. The other two suffered a lot of abuse, with bruises all over their bodies and faces, and the blood from the ruptured wounds had already coagulated. The scab on the wound was repeatedly torn. Then it slowly grows back over time and becomes a thick layer. Apparently they got a lot of beatings, multiple times a day.

The cave is two meters high. The trolls had no problem standing up, but they were now sitting and eating. The food was a pig hind leg, completely raw, without any processing. They didn't dare to light a fire in the cave, so naturally they couldn't cook the food, and they couldn't even clean the hair from the pigs. But the trolls don't care too much about these details. Still eating with relish. There was a plate in front of the two captives, and the pig's liver and heart lay there bloody. There are human teeth marks on it, and it seems that hunger has caused one of the two to start eating raw meat.

The weapon is placed next to the troll. A position within reach.

If it was the previous Siegel, I am afraid there is no good way to take this situation. The narrow terrain made it impossible for the elven pace to unfold, and the ogres could kill the hostages at any time when the situation turned bad. He'd have to wait until the ogre was asleep to make a sneak attack to be able to win.

But that is a thing of the past.

Siegel took out two elemental rune guards from the space bag and cast the spell of condensing the earth element. Two elemental guards soon appeared in front of him, fists of rock rattling.

The mage ordered one of them to dive into the ground and raid the troll's cave from the side, while the other descended from the sky, pierced directly through the surface, and fell into the center of the room. The heavy footsteps of the earth element caught the attention of the enemies in the cave. They nibbled at the hind legs of two pigs, and then picked up the machete beside them.

The troll tried to listen to the sounds around him with his small hairy earholes, and out of the corner of his eyes, he looked at the two people tied to the chain. It seemed that he felt the vibration of the ground, and the prisoner shook his head, tending to wake up.

At this moment, the earth element that passed from the ground broke out of the wall, slammed into the back of one of the trolls, and punched it. The elemental rune guard is about the same size as an ordinary person, which is a bit shorter than a large troll, so when it crouches on the enemy's back to attack, it's like a child beating an adult, and it doesn't appear to be strong.

Siegel ordered another earth element to attack, and he opened the bushes used for camouflage, and then jumped down together. The front and rear pincer attack suddenly made the trolls in a hurry, unable to take care of themselves. Siegel's appearance made him realize that he had been exposed, so he immediately raised his machete and killed the prisoner.

An ice wall divides the room, and the trolls and earth elementals all go to the other side of the ice wall. The machete cuts off large chunks of ice on the wall, but it's not easy to penetrate the wall.

Under the fury, the face of the enemy turned red, and he frantically slammed into the ice wall with his body. Siegel shouted the order to assemble. Let the earth elementals who have completed the task of attracting the attention of the enemy burrow back into the soil, and use their ability to escape from the battlefield. There is no need for Siegel to let the elemental rune guards and enemies fight hard, after all, the rune cores are not cheap enough to be used as consumables.

The two prisoners are tied to the stone, which is the best **** for the earth element to untangle, and the chain can be taken out with just a pull of the hand. Carrying one on one shoulder. The two prisoners were taken out of the burrow, and Siegel followed.

It only takes a turn of mind, and the ice wall disappears. Before the troll could figure out what was going on, a fireball was thrown into the hole, illuminating every space inside. Trolls are tough, even if they burn to black. Still wailing, struggling to get out. So Siegel unrolled the scroll and used another fireball.

This time there was no sound of howling.

"Moll, come here and see if the enemy is dead." Siegel summoned his entourage to see how this young man handles such a situation.

Moore was very careful. First, I grabbed a handful of dead grass, lit it on the unextinguished flames beside the hole, and threw it into the hole for lighting. Then he drew his longbow and shot the nearest troll in the neck to make sure it didn't slay any more.

The troll with the arrow in the neck didn't move, but the other was out of Morr's range. He decisively pulled out his long sword, pulled out a dagger in his other hand, and jumped into the hole.

Throwing daggers. It was inserted into the waist and ribs of the corpse, making sure that the enemy did not move, and then he was about to retract the sword and return it to the scabbard. I heard Siegel say from outside the cave: "Cut off the troll's head and burn it with fire to make sure everything is safe."

Moore performed well, and Siegel could check the two rescued prisoners with confidence.

The most obvious is their unfocused eyes. The long-term torture made the two people's mental states very abnormal, and they could not correctly understand their own situation. The older one was about forty years old, with a stocky build and thick calluses on his mouth and fingers. Definitely a pair of hands that are used to holding swords. He should be in the prime of life, and the experience of life and the tempering of the years should give him a pair of persevering and wise eyes. But now his eyes are blurred, and the dirt and thick eye mucus on his head have attracted a few flies. His mouth opened and closed unconsciously. Make a humming vibrato.

The other was just a child, about the same age as Moore, who was just beginning to grow his body. The pale skin looks very delicate, and the slender fingers are like women, without any calluses on them - this is very rare even among noble sons. After he was rescued, he kept laughing at Siegel, as if the appearance of a mage was the most ridiculous thing in the world. However, there were red blood clots hanging from the corners of his mouth, which seemed to be pig internal organs, which added a hint of evil to his smile.

Fortunately, the two of them are still obedient, except for a little dawdling, they can do whatever they want. Siegel searched the two of them~www.readwn.com~ and found nothing to prove their identities. At the same time, he couldn't ask any information from the two people's mouths - they wouldn't say anything except yelling. But in this wilderness, they can't be thrown away casually!

"It's a tricky thing." Siegel scratched his head and sat down the two people with no brains, and gave them some normal food to feed their stomachs. They must be sent away, the farther away from the hub, the better. It's a pity that I don't know how the two became what they are now, and why they became like this.

Memory-reading spells can only be used on clear minds, and the way of thinking of idiots and lunatics is full of dangerous traps that will confuse the minds of mages. Unless you can find a suitable priest, you can only wait for the two to recover slowly.

While the two of them were eating quietly, Siegel cast a spell to change the two of them. One looks like an old man, the other looks like a woman. More will go to the Green Field Inn to find a carriage and send the two back to Myr City as soon as possible.

"Hide them and don't let anyone find them," Siegel explained. "Then you go straight to the Jackdaw tribe in the northern steppe to find me."

In order to investigate the magic tower of the Knox Common Council, he rode to the junction alone. (To be continued)
