Twenty Sided Dice

The portal only lasted for a brief moment, but it was enough to bring Siegel and Erdu back to the material world. n∈, .. The shock wave caused by the huge explosion behind them rushed into the portal with the two of them. Fortunately, the passage was quickly closed, leaving the power of destruction in the void.

The two rolled into a ball and fell into the dark warehouse. The shelves were knocked down, and alchemy and spell casting materials fell on the heads of the two people. The modron kept uttering "Whoops, Whoops" as he tried to brace himself with his slender arms and legs, but was pushed back down by the more agile Siegel.

The wizard stood up, the light from his wand illuminating the surroundings. He was delighted to discover that this was his warehouse of magic materials, the basement of Myr City.

"Finally back." He reached for the modron and looked around. There was a lot of dust on the floor and on the shelves, indicating that no one was cleaning here and that it had been a long time. Thinking of this, the joy in his heart was diluted a lot. It is difficult to calculate time in the void. Many times he is still immersed in meditation and the creation of magic circles. How long has it been?

Siegel closed his eyes and communicated with his familiar. Raven Baron came from the soul connection with excitement and joy, and then obediently surrendered control. Siegel saw Janet lying on the bed through the eyes of the familiar. She looked so weak, with an unhealthy flush on her face. Her belly was round, and her clothes were propped up high, and it seemed at least five or six months had passed.

Fortunately, I can catch up with the birth of the child.

The dragon girl pushed open the door and came in from the outside with an angry face, complaining that the attacking army had begun to gather again. No plans to rest at all. She persuaded Janet to enter the secret passage as soon as possible. That way she can get back to her true form. Let the army outside know what the dragon's wrath is.

Siegel frowned and was furious. How could an army dare to attack its territory?

Through the mouth of the magic pet Baron, he said to the two women in the bedroom: "I'm back, don't worry, leave everything to me."

"Siegel?!" Janet exclaimed. The familiar nodded, and then cut off contact with its owner.

Modesty sniffed with her nose, and she found another strange teleportation spell structure. Secretly felt strange. I didn't expect that following this black-haired mage, I could see so many special spells. Maybe the hope of finding my father is hidden here.

"Erdu, you stay here and hide, and I will arrange for you after I finish the war." Siegel said: "There is a war outside, so don't go out for the time being."

Modron nodded, then watched Siegel walk towards the gate. The door lock opened automatically, silently making way for him. The elemental energies around the mage were quickly mobilized and focused on his wand.

A man alone cannot change the situation of a war unless he has an inexhaustible amount of magic at his disposal. Siegel took out the alchemy from the space bag. Use a spell to pull them into filaments and wrap one end around the wand. The other end is made into a claw shape that can be opened and closed. Then Siegel used the method he learned from the undead of Nexus to draw rune lines on the alchemy claws, and cooperated with the technology of elemental rune magic circle and energy focusing lens to create a "charging device" for his wand.

He took out a flame soul crystal and inserted it into the modified wand claw. The energy of the flame soul crystal is transformed and decomposed into the form of elemental energy, which can be used by the magic wand. Originally, Siegel needed to use his own body to carry the surge of magical energy, and to reconstruct the energy with his own thoughts in order to form a spell and launch it through his wand. Now he only needs to perform the last two steps, which greatly reduces the burden on the body.

Simply put, he can unleash more magic - although control will be affected and reduced, the amount will undoubtedly be greatly increased.

When he came out of the warehouse, many residents of Heimland saw him. These refugees have been hiding in the basement of the castle for three days. During these three days, all the men have been sent to the city wall to take turns to deal with the successive attacks of the enemy. Only the old man, the woman, and the child were left in the basement, cuddling and comforting each other in low voices. A half-elf priest was standing among them, holding a holy emblem with silver light, leading the people to pray to the Mother Earth.

Siegel stopped, saluted the priest, and moved on. He had no intention of disturbing the sacred prayer ceremony, which still had a great effect on soothing emotions.

The next level up is the warehouse and the secret passage. Civilians are not allowed to appear here. At most, some people who know how to bandage wounds and deliver meals can come up and take a look at the situation while they are working. The armory is also here, and four blacksmiths are busy, two are trying their best to sharpen the long sword with gaps or dullness, and the other two are busy with the broken shield. The arrows of the enemy are endless, and shields and helmets are very important and life-threatening things.

In the center of the house, the dwarf's perseverance runestone floats in the air, providing strength to the people here. It can quickly restore physical strength and has a very good soothing effect on muscle pain caused by fatigue. Some orcs were leaning against the corners of the wall, falling asleep to the sound of the blacksmith's tinkling tapping, and the loud snoring could be heard incessantly. They all had large and small wounds on their bodies, and the bandages that had been wrapped around them had been soaked with sweat, turned gray, and then stood on new blood.

They were either focused on the work at hand, or were still dreaming, and Siegel stood in front of them for a while without noticing. The guard guarding the entrance to the secret passage was stunned for a moment, and quickly stood up straight, causing the horned helmet on his head to keep shaking. He was just a kid of about ten years old, barely able to hold a spear and put on a helmet. He has no training in martial arts at all, and he doesn't have enough strength, but he can help guard the gate.

"Lord Lord...you're back!" The child had a happy face: "I've been working hard to stand guard, and I haven't been lazy for a moment!"

Siegel smiled, took out an opal from the space bag and placed it in his palm, then said, "Keep working hard, this is my reward for you."

After receiving the reward, the child was also encouraged, so he boldly said, "Lord Lord, Lord Mana Knight is resting not far away, do you want me to call her for you?"

"Let her follow, I'll wait for you here," Siegel replied. "Go and get back."

The female archer looked tired, but after seeing Siegel, her eyes couldn't stop excited. For a moment, Siegel seemed to see tears in her eyes. "I'm back," Siegel said. "You won't be left to fight alone."

"No, Lord, we have been together all the time." Mana showed a pale smile, "Everyone fought side by side from the beginning and then took turns to rest. I just came down and slept for a while, with Leah leading the archers and Humke commanding the city wall. defense."

"Tell me what happened while you walk with me."

"The lords of the south suddenly assembled and declared war on us. When the letter of war was sent to the castle, the army was already on its way. Lady Janet could only make all the residents of the territory urgently retreat to the castle to hide in case of attacked by war."

"The siege has been going on for five days, and three days ago, they started an uninterrupted attack, trying to use the strategy of exhaustion to drag us down. So far, with the help of the runes on the city wall and the elemental warriors in the territory, the situation can remain stalemate for the time being. , but in terms of combat readiness, the opponent still has a clear advantage."

"Because of being surrounded by layers, there is no news from the outside, so it is still unknown who planned this attack." Mana said.

The two made their way up the stairs, and everyone moved out of the way and saluted Siegel. Some sang the "One Day War" ballad, and everyone who heard it sang along. It is their wish to end the war one day.

This is the first time Siegel has heard this song, and I have to say that some of the passages are quite catchy. But behind this light-hearted and joyful piece of music lies a heavy responsibility and hope.

He followed Mana to the courtyard, where he saw the orc Hunk resting. He tightly bound the wound on his leg with a bandage, and proudly stretched it out in front of the golem Rhett. The clay giant swept from above with large hands, covering the wound with a milky light. Although it does not heal quickly, it can speed up recovery and prevent infection.

Behind Hunk, more than twenty orc warriors were healing each other. They washed the wounds with spirits and sutured them with long, burnt needles. Although it is behind the city wall, it is still in the middle of a battlefield, and arrows will fall from time to time. So the proposed shack was built out of wood in the courtyard, at least to keep the arrows at bay.

On the city wall, Siegel saw a gray-bearded dwarf who was standing on the box, unbuttoning his pants, and urinating outside the battlements. Several feathered arrows were shot, but his whole body armor collapsed, and the long urine line was not disturbed at all~www.readwn.com~ The dwarf laughed, as happy as putting out a fire with a waterfall.

I didn't see the figure of Elf Leah, but Siegel saw the familiar trajectory of the feather arrow - obviously faster and more hidden than others'.

Now there are only more than 30 soldiers on the city wall, taking advantage of the gap between the previous wave of enemies and the rotation of the next wave of enemies to defend the front line. Although they wore the same armor and held spears, they were real guys with sharp blades, but they were all just militiamen. If it weren't for the war, they should now be plowing the fields or busy in the craft shop.

Those who can get the crossbow are those who are heroic and have military exploits. They have already killed the enemy and are more stable than others, so they will not accidentally hurt their companions in the panic. Siegel saw Deaf Dalter leaning against the battlements, and methodically handed the parts of the crossbow to clean and oil to ensure that it could function properly. I was very lucky just now. I used this weapon to shoot a knight from a distance. It just shot through the gap between his helmet and shoulder pads, killing him in one hit. Without this crossbow, you can only fight with spears - that is too dangerous, and it is difficult to obtain military exploits.

The head of each knight is worth three gold coins! he thought happily. (To be continued..)

ps: Please support me a lot! Three gold coins per knight!
