Arcane Lord

The death of a mere sheep naturally did not attract Master Aibo's attention. As soon as he came over, he discovered the source of negative energy radiation——

The remains of the undead creature wearing a black robe.

"Apprentice, get out first!"

"yes."

Xia Duo immediately exited the house. The negative energy lingering in the room made him feel very unhappy. This was the instinct of life, and even a mage was not immune to it.

When he came outside the house, Sha Duo did not run around, but stopped in a relatively unaffected position, waiting for Master Aibo.

However, he was not idle, but looked in all directions while reviewing the spells he had learned.

There are not many houses in this village, only about a dozen or so, but every house seems to be deserted. It is not known whether they have been killed by the undead or have gone into hiding.

Xia Duo guessed irresponsibly.

After a while, Master Aibo came out with a solemn expression. Sha Duo did not dare to ask anything, but just followed him and checked one by one in the village.

Xia Duo himself didn't discover anything [Literature Hall www.wxguan.vip], but Master Aibo seemed to have discovered something, but if he didn't say anything, Xia Duo had no way of knowing.

Finally, Master Aibo stopped in the center of the village, in front of the altar of the Lord of Glory, "Okay, let's go back."

Still casting the spell as when they came, a white light flashed, and the two returned to the previous room. Not only Master Horst was still there, but also the other seven mages who had appeared when they received the badge.

"Apprentice, the information you provided this time is very important. After the war, you will be rewarded by the lord. Now, get out." Aibo drew a cake for Sha Duo and dismissed him.

…

Not long after returning to the camp, Shado received a summons from Master Horst.

Through the badge he received before, Master Horst told him, or told the apprentices who had received Master Horst’s secret mark like Shado—

"The countdown to the war is about to begin, and everyone must stay in the military camp on standby, waiting for orders to go to war at any time."

Although Shado had received this news from Master Horst before, the arrival of the official order still made him feel tremendous pressure.

Of course, there is also a sense of relief.

We keep talking about war, war, but there is no accurate estimate of when the war will come. Just like a prisoner facing the death penalty, this kind of torture has always tortured all the little people like Xia Duo.

In the case of unequal information, you can only strengthen yourself and arm yourself as much as possible, and always be prepared.

So, the day finally came!

Sha Duo immediately contacted Dean and Sami through [Messaging Technique].

Dean is easy to talk about. Anyway, he is now on a team with Xia Duo. After such a long time, Xia Duo has convinced him that his team is actually equivalent to Xia Duo's team, and they all follow Xia Duo's command.

However, there was a problem on Sami's side. The encounter with the orcs just now resulted in attrition. Even if the orcs were killed later, it would be a big blow to morale.

But Sha Duo has no other choice. The collaborators in different mission areas have chosen Sami and the others, or in other words only Sami and the others.

In this case, Xia Duo had to consider their current situation.

If they cannot recover as soon as possible, not only will they themselves suffer, but it may even affect Xia Duo.

For Xia Duo, this point is particularly important.

"Sammy, have you received Master Horst's summons? What's the situation on your end?"

Facing Sha Duo's inquiry, Sami responded almost instantly. He also realized his situation. Under the current situation, it would be very dangerous for him to lose Sha Duo as his collaborator.

"Received. The conditions of the wounded on our side have stabilized, but a few of them are no longer suitable to continue fighting. The higher-ups have added six more people to us. Only one is an adventurer, and the rest are civilians."

Sami did not hide the real situation on his side. Concealing it at this time was really the worst policy. The only way to do it was to be open and honest and actively seek solutions.

six people? Xia Duo didn't expect that nearly a third of the people on Sami's side would be replaced. The team that had already been getting along was suddenly changed.

At that time, Xia Duo thought that with magical treatment, he only needed to replace three dead places, but he did not expect that three more people would also be replaced.

It seems that magical treatment is not omnipotent, at least the magical treatment provided in the camp is quite limited.

"Let's do physical training and formation training first. I will send someone over to conduct confrontation training with you." Sha Duo replied.

The only good thing now is that, except for the newcomers Sami has just added, everyone else has actually seen the orcs and has a certain understanding of the real power of the orcs.

This is already ahead of the ranks of other apprentices.

Xia Duo encouraged Sami, but he was not good at words. In the end, it was Sami cheering him up.

After suspending the [Messaging Technique], Xia Duo told Jibu to take people to the Sami camp tomorrow, and then started his final preparations.

Needless to say, in terms of equipment, he carries a hand crossbow, dagger, and magic box with him at all times. He cannot afford other magic equipment, but the [Summoning Mount] scroll, because he has gained some gains from actual combat in the town before, so he can buy it now get up.

It's just that he can't enter the mage tower now and can't buy it at all. There are magic items for sale in Savile Town, but the price of any magic scrolls related to running away and saving lives has increased several times, and Sha Duo cannot afford it.

There is nothing more helpless than this for the poor.

When going out to equip, you can only work hard on physical fitness and spells. It is difficult to make breakthrough progress in the former. Sha Duo can basically keep up with the team's actions now, and there is no need for others to wait for him. The same is true for Dean.

As for spells, Xia Duo has many ideas. Instant casting is the method that can bring about the most improvement. Among the 0-level spells he is most familiar with, [Light Spell] can already be cast almost instantly.

Others are not too difficult, just practice more, summarize more, combine theory with practice, and just follow the steps.

Looking at it this way, Xia Duo is actually ready for war (relatively speaking).

After seeing the enriched form of negative energy today, Xia Duo had a deeper understanding of energy and magic network. Combined with his previous experience of changing [Light Spell], he had an idea to create a new spell.

This is almost a necessary experience for all famous mages or arcane masters in the apprenticeship stage, and now Shado has reached this point.

The spell he wanted to create was very simple - [Water Creation]. Perhaps someone had already created it before him, but Sha Duo did not obtain any relevant spell-casting elements, not even the spell model.

This was completely based on Xia Duo's knowledge and understanding of the principles of magic and the nature of the magic net, combined with the eight 0-level spells he had learned.

He didn't ask how powerful this spell was or what it could bring him. He just regarded it as an act of theory guiding practice, which was nothing short of ordinary.

There will be more such behaviors in the future.
