Diablo Destruction

There is no time, no space, only countless particle-like light particles, one by one, shining with light, filling the sight, constantly passing by, a layer of unchanging scenery, rendering the eternal silence.

"..."

I woke up from my soul state, opened my eyes, took a deep breath, stretched out, and looked out the window. The light of the morning sun came out from the outside, and it was already dawn.

When I opened the window, a burst of moist and fresh air suddenly hit my face. Looking from the second floor, the scenery of the swamp lake in the distance was reflected, and then I remembered that I had arrived at the Kurast Seaport.

After taking a breath of fresh air, I opened the curtains to let the early morning sunlight brighten the room. I put on the standard adventurer's outfit and put on the fitting cloak that Willas made for me. My eyes touched the magic book beside the bed, and I couldn't help but Another sigh.

"Today, there is still no progress."

Doing the math, it has been more than half a year since I got the soul magic. During this time, except for accompanying Willas and my two newly recognized daughters when I was in Rogge, I have never relaxed for a moment. With the soul magic With a devilish teacher like the old drunkard, even if my talent is not outstanding, my progress has been huge.

First of all, the old drunkard, thanks to her, taught me a lot of useful skills, so now my basic skills may not be as good as those of adventurers of the same level, but in some of the skills I use, I am not inferior to them, even There are still some wins, just like the red dates I used last time...cough, of course, if it doesn't transform into a blood bear, it can't be called a red date...cough, it's just an ordinary charged attack. Just compare this charged punch. Now I can punch three times as fast after charging for one second, five times as fast for two seconds, six times as fast for three seconds, and three seconds later. There is no increase in the range. The longer you charge, the faster you will fight. Otherwise, if I charge for a year, wouldn’t I be able to kill even Baal instantly?

Attack at six times speed in three seconds. If you have good weapons, you can already attack dozens of times in one second. Of course, if you only use fists or wrist blades, the frequency will be faster. This is also one of the advantages of our druids and assassins. At this speed, I think the Kurast adventurer is about the same, and I have also initially mastered the feint. Although not very skilled, this is generally an intermediate combat skill that can only be mastered by Harrogath adventurers. Against adventurers of the same level, mastering feints will definitely have a big advantage.

I am even more satisfied with the magic aspect. I have already figured out the first level fire storm. Now you can change it as you like, and you can barely control even the triple fire storm. The next step is to study how to attach the power of the fire storm to your body or weapons. This is more dangerous. You have to think about it carefully.

The second magma boulder discovered by soul magic after the Continuing Fire Storm has been mastered to a certain extent. For example, I can now cast this magic instantly, and I can control the bursting time of the magma boulder at any time. This is a rather clumsy technique that can make the enemy hard to guard against, especially when manipulating a giant lava rock to explode directly above his head. I have tested it several times. The bursting flame fragments can cover a five-meter radius and turn it into a fire pit and scorched earth. It also has impact properties. Under such intensive attacks, even if the enemy does not die, he will be knocked away by countless rubbles. , more than one or two points more powerful than the mage's second-level ice magic, Frost Nova.

The only pity is that I can't control the direction of the flaming rubble, and the lava rock explodes naturally. The scattered flame rubble covered the ground in all directions. Therefore, there is a lot of waste. If you can control these flaming gravels, they will all be fired in the direction of the enemy. Thinking about the scene at that time, tsk tsk, I was a little scared myself.

As for the third magic - volcanic explosion, I actually found its soul imprint a few days ago when I was learning feints with the old drunkard. I just mastered it not long ago, so I am not very skilled. Volcanic explosion is the biggest. The shortcoming, as I said before, is the problem of accuracy. Within the range covered by the volcanic explosion, the lava jets burst out in irregular forms. It is possible that the monster is clearly standing in the center, but it just misses it. Therefore, controlling the position of the lava column is a top priority, and then we need to consider how to save it - if there are only a dozen enemies to be killed, and a volcano explodes, it will spray dozens of lava columns, which is not very good. Wasted?

By the way, the three magic engravings are all fire magic, but the soul engraving of the polar storm has still not been found. Could it be that my attribute is biased towards fire? No, I'm such a calm person.

However, the progress in magic only goes so far. It seems to have encountered a bottleneck recently and there has been no progress. But whatever, even if it is temporarily in trouble, in fact, just using soul magic every day can greatly improve the soul strength and mental power. I I finally understand why Tia can cast such a terrifying rain of ice arrows - in addition to a severe overdraft of mana, it is also inseparable from her powerful mental power. Considering that she has been practicing soul magic since she was a child, her mental power may have already been reduced. There are mages of level 50 or 60 who are so powerful. No wonder the wizards of the Horadric tribe are so bt. The power of the realm that ordinary mages find difficult to enter in their lives is just a piece of cake for them. I think it is because of the soul magic. Exist.

Okay, I've actually hit a bottleneck in magic, so let's think about it from another angle. We are time travellers, how can we be looked down upon by people from another world? Putting the magic book away, I opened the door and walked downstairs. A burst of fragrance came, oh, has Princess Sanwu prepared breakfast?

For example, do the skills that come with professional-specific equipment also have magic imprints in the equipment? Can I use soul magic to explore it? If the above conditions are true, can I use soul magic to optimize the magic imprint included in the equipment, or even copy it into my own soul? These ideas are very tempting, but I can only think about it for now because of lack of ability. , I am not good enough to use soul magic to explore equipment now.

While she was thinking about it, Princess Sanwu had already served her breakfast. Ah, she was dressed in a rare white apron, without a scarf or that weird big white hat. Sure enough, she still looked more like an ordinary girl.

"..."

I was wrong, even if I dress normally. That emotionless doll face doesn't look like an ordinary girl's.

"Master, are you thinking of something rude?"

"Haha, I'm thinking about your face..." I replied subconsciously, and immediately realized it halfway through my sentence, covering my mouth in a panic. It only took a tenth of a second in total - like me There are not many smart people nowadays.

Princess Sanwu was already standing next to me, holding a silver plate in both hands. He stared at me condescendingly as if he were looking at an inorganic object.

"Breakfast is not ready yet, please wait a moment." After saying this, Princess Sanwu had a straight face and planned to return to the kitchen with the silver plate in hand.

"Didn't you bring it here? It's done. It's definitely done. You definitely want to go back to the kitchen and add some strange ingredients. I apologize. I'm wrong. Little Jasmine, you Just forgive me." I quickly hugged Princess Sanwu from behind, dragged her back, clasped my hands and begged for mercy.

Hey, by the way, am I really the master?

It was hard to give up Princess Sanwu’s idea of ​​recreating breakfast. I quickly stuffed the hard-earned food into my stomach, but now is not the time to relax. If I don’t make this little one happy before noon, then lunch is likely to be the specialty of Kurast Seaport-a black lump. of swamp. Of course, there may be some thoughtful meat inside, such as swamp leeches that are constantly wriggling...

After breakfast, I plan to go to the central area first to explore the main areas where adventurers are active. Maybe I can get a lot of useful information from the bar. The bar that adventurers frequent is just like the guild in the game. , you can always find out some fresh news in it. But there is no way of knowing whether it is true or false.

In addition, maybe I should go to Thorne. There is another person in charge - mercenary captain Asila. She is the mercenary leader here. Her position is somewhat similar to that of the old drunkard. In her There, you can sign an alliance contract with another major feature of Kurast Seaport - the sword mage, the mage mercenary led by Asila. In Kurast, they are also called Iron Wolf mercenaries with awe. Leading her Iron Wolf mercenaries, Asheara has fought demons here thousands of times. He made great contributions to the defense of Kurast and is a figure worthy of admiration.

In addition to these two people, there are two other people worthy of my attention. One is Hera Tieli, the most famous blacksmith in Kurast. Unlike most blacksmiths who are barbarians and paladins, Hera Tieli is a Therefore, although the weapons and armor created by the mage are not as strong and durable as other blacksmiths, with the magic power of the mage, these equipment are superior in terms of attributes. Of course, the price is also much more expensive, and it is the best price. , many adventurers secretly said that he was desperate for money.

The last person is the alchemist Ella. I don’t know much about him. I only know that he is a potion seller. He always researches some weird things and is proficient in identification. He seems to also work part-time as a gambling businessman. Khan~~

After sorting out the information in my mind, I diligently approached Princess Sanwu, who was sitting in a corner and flipping through a heavy book.

"Little Jasmine, how about you go out with me for a walk and get familiar with the environment?"

The crystal clear eyes moved away from the book, fell on my face, and then nodded slightly, hehe, there is a drama, Princess Sanwu has been following me to Kurast, which means that it is only with me. In just a few hours after going to the central area and meeting Omus, I came to the south area to take care of everything, but I definitely didn’t have time to see the style of Kurast.

Today’s lunch at noon may be upgraded from swamp to barbecue.

"By the way, little Jasmine, your books..." I suddenly remembered the battle fortress-like study room behind Lu Gaoyin's villa, where had she stuffed the room full of books.

"storage box."

As I expected, I asked her why she kept running back and forth a few days before departure. It turned out that she was busy stuffing books into the storage box. Since the storage box is shared, as long as the books are put in Lu Goin's storage box can be taken out from Kurast's side, which is very convenient, but...

"Isn't the storage box only used by job changers?" I asked curiously.

"Ding--"

Princess Sanwu did not answer, but with a pretty face, she coolly took out a few gems that I knew were priceless at a glance, and they made a crisp sound in front of my eyes.

It turns out that’s the case, it turns out you can still buy it off with money. They have all forgotten that this little one is a richer master than me, a nouveau riche, this damn money society, this evil maid is richer than her master.

After Princess Sanwu changed into her outfit, the two of us set off towards the central area. If I remember correctly, this should be the first time for me and her to go out together. I don’t know where this little girl usually goes out. Do something. Have you been wandering alone in the bookstore? Maybe I really neglected her a little.

The central area of ​​Kurast, which is the activity area for adventurers, is also divided into several areas. One of them is the central platform that Omas took me to. That is the center of Kurast. Even adventurers cannot follow it. Enter as you please.

The other is the temporary living area for adventurers, which is a platform dotted with hotels. Adventurers are usually lazy. Even if they have money, they would rather stay in a hotel than buy a house. Buying a house is so troublesome, and you have to spend time looking for it, cleaning it, and cooking by yourself. It's far away from the central area, and you have to ask someone to sell it when you leave (after all, not every adventurer is as rich as someone to deal with real estate), so staying in a hotel is much better.

Then there is the entertainment area, where there are most various bars. Information exchanges between adventurers usually take place here. Of course, the distinction between hotels and bars is not obvious. Many bars double as hotels, which is more convenient for lazy adventurers. In addition, there are some Something more special, such as "Ladies Street". For example, casinos, or even underground arenas, these are more negative and dark things, so I won’t browse them one by one.

Finally, there is the trading area. The adventurers of Kurast have gained considerable freedom in trading. They are no longer restricted like kindergarten children under care like in Rogge Camp. Basically, a large number of people have appeared here. equipment trading. There are even traces of golden equipment among them.

Before I knew it, a morning had passed. The two of us only walked less than one-half of the entire central area, thanks to Princess Sanwu's amazing memory. After just a quick glance at the map, I immediately mapped out the most efficient route—a route that would cover the entire central area without repeating it.

Hey, isn’t it just that I have a higher IQ? I won't be jealous, really not at all...

"Little Jasmine, how far are we from the East District now?"

After the lunch problem that I had been worrying about was successfully solved in a certain restaurant, I patted my belly and said with satisfaction, haha, now I am not afraid even if I bully this little kid a little. With my "Dragon" Yan Dayue, I seemed to have forgotten that there was still dinner. There is a future...

She closed her eyes and seemed to be searching for our current location in her mind. I even had the illusion of hearing the sound of hard disk reading. Within five seconds, she opened her eyes.

"It's very close, only half an hour away."

"Then let's visit Asila first. I'm very interested in her Iron Wolf mercenary team."

I touched my chin and murmured. Princess Sanwu just nodded lightly. Although we were shopping together, she seemed to think that as long as she followed me, she could do anything. In this regard, she still fulfilled her duty as a maid. Of course , maybe this is the only thing...

Soon, we came to the East District and found Asila under the guidance of the students. Just like when I saw Omus, I stopped far away again, hesitating whether to step forward - was it Kula? Are all the people in charge of STER so unique?

Asila, gender: female; age: looks about thirty years old, with long brown wavy hair, a classic look like a royal sister, tall and hot figure, at first glance I thought she was an Amazon, the most surprising thing Unfortunately, it was her dress that could be fully expressed in three words.

Bikini…

The whole body is dressed in a sexy bikini outfit, which highlights the towering breasts. Every step he takes, it is not enough to describe the dynamic feeling. Apart from the underwear that is as slender as a rope, the lower body only has two hangings hanging from the front and back. A strip of cloth barely covers the shameful part. If it moves or a gust of wind blows, it will definitely leak out, a big leak. Compared with her, even Mai Shiranui would be ashamed - she is really dressed Too conservative.

Hello. The one over there, summoning the updraft, let me automatically face the wall...

Therefore, if the students had not pointed out her identity in advance, I would have mistakenly thought that she was a woman from the women's street who came to solicit customers. Is such a person really the leader of a mage organization? Aren't all mages supposed to be stubborn and rigorous in character (please don't refer to people like misers)? If Tia made me have a different view, then Asilah in front of me completely subverted my concept.

what to do? Want to go up and say hello? Why. Forget it, the show is coming, I just hope her character is not as weird as that damn Indian Asan from Omus.

"Oh, dear adventurer, welcome to your arrival. Do you have any business with me? If you want to sign a mercenary contract with my cute little wolves, maybe I can give you some good candidates."

Asila, who was talking to a red-robed wizard, immediately turned around when she noticed my arrival. She greeted her warmly, and her towering breasts swayed with her movements, and the two strips of cloth that barely covered her vagina rose even more...

"Ahem..." I was choking on my own breath. Maybe I really shouldn't have come.

"Ms. Asila, I'm not here to sign a mercenary contract. Well, it's just that... I'm here to visit." I said hastily, my mind was confused. Damn, this woman is so scary.

"Visit? This is really a new word. You are probably an adventurer who has just arrived in Kurast. Come, please sit down, my little guest." Asila said with a smile.

"Well, I'm sorry, I didn't disturb you." I saw the red-robed mage mercenary retreating from the side. I performed a slight mage salute.

After sitting down, I took out Akara's code and showed my elder's certificate. Asila was obviously surprised by my identity.

"I didn't expect that His Excellency the Elder would come here. I'm really rude."

"It's nothing, I'm just an elder in name only." I smiled and shook my head.

"If anything happens, please give me your orders, Elder. As a member of the Adventurer Alliance, we Iron Wolf mercenaries are not afraid of any enemy." Asila said sonorously. The heroic look between her brows and eyes gave her the aura of a woman, which finally changed my impression of her a bit.

At this moment. The strange "thick scarf" around Asila's neck suddenly moved, and then a head stuck out from behind her, sticking out its tongue and staring at me with cold eyes.

"..."

Withdrawal of the preface, I originally thought that what she hung around her neck was just an old-fashioned "scarf", but unexpectedly it turned out to be a living big snake. She is indeed a strange mage and a strange woman.

"Don't take the order seriously. Let's help each other in the future. By the way, Asila, your mercenaries are relatively well-informed. I want to inquire about it. Omus asked me to help him find the lost Gidebin. I wonder if you Know something?"

"Gidebin? That's it. I don't know much about this matter. I only know that a few dwarves broke into the place of loss in the past few days and seemed to have stolen a lot of things. Originally, my little wolves wanted to take these hateful things away. The dwarves killed them, but they disappeared without a trace the next day. According to the investigation of my cute little wolf, there should be a loophole in a corner of the magic circle. Now I am working hard to deal with this matter. As for the Gidebin the elder mentioned, I think it was probably stolen by those dwarves."

I didn't get any very useful information from Asila. The only thing that could be confirmed was that Gidbin seemed to have been stolen by the dwarfs, but even if it was true. Where can I find it?

After chatting with Asheela for a short while, I hurriedly left. Before leaving, she enthusiastically explained to me that although old man Omas's character was a little strange, he was indeed a good person in charge. I hope I would not be The first time was misleading.

Okay, I won’t care about Omus for now. Akara may have her reasons for letting him be the person in charge. Asilah’s performance has given me a lot more confidence in the Kurast Adventurer Alliance. , compared to Omas, she is much more normal, of course, except for the dress...

"Next is Heratli, where is he? Does Little Jasmine know?"

After coming out of Asila's residence, I set the goal of my second visit. I was about to take out the map and check it out, but then I remembered that there was a human-shaped map machine beside me.

"To the west, in the central area, it's a two-hour journey." Sure enough, Princess Sanwu gave an accurate answer.

"..."

It would be more efficient to go to Heratli first at the beginning. Little Jasmine, you should occasionally remind me of my incompetent master. Looking at the expressionless Princess Sanwu, I was speechless and far away.
