One Sneeze Destroys A Magical Civilization

Chapter 56 Exchange

With the capture of Ratmen leader Lanny alive and the tragic death of more than 300 Ratmen, this short battle, or rather one-sided massacre, in the sewers of Calimport finally came to an end.

Epke personally escorted the prisoner back to his lair, intending to let the chief torture expert pry the prisoner's mouth open.

Before leaving, he not only promised to deliver a gift that would satisfy Zuo Si soon, but also sent some men to deal with those corpses.

Obviously, the leader of the Thieves Guild doesn't want too many people to know what happened in the sewer at midnight today.

However, dealing with more than 300 rats as tall as a person is undoubtedly not an easy job.

Even throwing them into the sea requires at least a little mutilation.

Otherwise, it will soon be discovered by interested people.

At this critical moment, Zuo Si stood up again and used his superb anatomical skills to conquer everyone present, including the magic consultant Courant.

With only a two-finger-long, extremely thin knife in his hand, he easily bled, skinned, boned, and gutted a rat-man corpse in less than a few minutes, and cut it into pieces according to the muscle texture. Different pieces of meat.

The art-like delicate movements, as well as the understanding of the body structure of humanoid creatures, are simply breathtaking.

It is estimated that even butchers who specialize in slaughtering pigs, cattle, sheep and other livestock will not be able to help but give a thumbs up and give a thumbs up.

Most importantly, these thieves' guild members couldn't see any uncomfortable reactions such as fear, nausea, and disgust on Zuo Si's face.

Just the opposite!

He didn't show any expression when dismembering the rat man, and took the opportunity to collect some specially processed bones, internal organs, eyeballs and blood as materials for casting spells and researching.

At this moment, no one dared to doubt that the boy in front of him who looked about ten years old was a powerful necromancer.

Because apart from the necromancer who dealt with corpses all day long, no one could dismember hundreds of dead corpses in such a calm manner without changing his face.

Even the veteran in the guild who has been in charge of dismembering corpses all year round couldn't help hiding in a corner and vomiting after working for a while.

Of course, these people didn't know at all that the main reason why Zuo Si chose to stay and help was to have close contact with these newly dead corpses, and to drain the last remaining magical energy from the Ratmen.

After a few hours of tossing around, he got an average of 5 generic mana points from each skaven.

Three hundred is 1500 mana points.

In addition, Zombie Rat also contributed a lot of extra black mana.

After waiting for more than two hours, all the ratmen's corpses were dismantled into "parts" and thrown into the sea. Then everyone crawled out of the sewer, stood under the night sky, and greedily breathed the fresh air without the smell of blood and stench.

After a full minute, Courant smiled bitterly and said with emotion: "Well, I finally understand now that I am afraid that I am not suitable for studying necromancy magic. Especially when facing a large number of dead bodies all day long, it is definitely not an ordinary person. tolerable."

"No, you are wrong.

The essence of necromancy magic has never been to awaken and dominate the undead.

Instead, explore the mysteries between life and death, break the boundaries between the two, and even grant yourself eternal life.

As for making undead creatures, flesh and blood puppets, and researching various curses, diseases, instant death and negative energy spells, they are just by-products obtained during the exploration process.

If you get this mixed up, you'll be just a second-rate necromancer for the rest of your life. "

Zuo Si corrected solemnly.

And this sentence is also the core idea that the necromancer, Asta, clearly stated repeatedly in the first lesson of "Introduction to Necromancer Magic".

"Explore the mysteries between life and death? Get yourself eternal life!"

Courant's eyes shone slightly, as if imagining that he had mastered the great power between life and death.

But soon he smiled wryly and shook his head: "That's too far away for me now. If possible, I hope to get you a full set of magic rituals for making zombie rat energy bombs tonight through trading. This is the magic knowledge and skills that I can practically learn and use at this stage."

"No problem! But what are you going to use in exchange?" Zuo Si asked with great interest.

"I think that should be enough."

With that said, Courant took out a very unique copper lamp from his pocket.

In Calimshan, almost every household has oil lamps like this shape.

The only difference is that it obviously has a strong magic wave.

"A magic lamp? There must be a giant spirit imprisoned in it!"

Zuo Si seemed to have guessed something, with an extremely surprised expression on his face.

Since the Calimshan region was in ancient times, it was almost the djinn that came from across the plane, and the djinn that also came from the same plane, and the two sides had a history of fighting each other endlessly.

So here, a lamp or bottle containing magical power has a high probability to be some unlucky giant spirit who was captured and sealed at the beginning.

Courant nodded with a complicated expression: "That's right! There is a giant spirit sealed in this lamp.

But it's not the fire djinn, wind djinn, or earth djinn or water djinn that most people think, but a rare little djinn.

This is the smallest and weakest of all genies.

Both height and weight are very close to human beings.

And has some spell-like abilities. "

"I don't understand. Since there is a giant spirit sealed in the lamp, its value must be very high. Why don't you keep it for yourself, or sell it in the magic item market?"

Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and raised a question.

He has always been vigilant about everything around him, so he doesn't believe that there will be a thing that happens to fall on his head.

"because……"

There was a flash of embarrassment in Courant's eyes, and he explained with some embarrassment: "Because the maker of this lamp has set very complicated rules.

Those who want to use it must answer the riddles proposed by the three little ghosts correctly in a row, otherwise she has the right to refuse any of your requests.

In addition, if all three riddles are answered incorrectly, the sealed dwarf will be free again.

I've failed twice before, and now I only have one last chance left. "

"In other words, after I get this lamp, there is only one chance left?"

Zuo Si quickly showed a face that was as expected.

He had predicted a long time ago that if there was really a giant spirit in the lamp that could be driven by someone, even the weakest little giant spirit, the other party would not be able to take it out so easily as a bargaining chip.

However, Zuo Si couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought of a valuable magic item being harmed by this idiot in front of him.

"Yes. But I believe that with your strength and wisdom, Your Excellency Sous, you will definitely be able to deal with the little giant spirit inside." Courant said his compliments carefully.

He also knew that the value of this magic item, which was originally worth at least tens of thousands of gold coins, was greatly reduced because of the relationship between his two failed challenges.

Even the merchants in the magic market are unwilling to buy such a piece of rubbish with no fault tolerance at a low price.

Zuo Si stared at the golden oil lamp covered with invisibility magic runes and pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Deal!

But I declare in advance!

As for that technique of using zombie rats to make negative energy bombs, it's best never to use it in front of a priest.

Because of their ability to disperse and rebuke undead, it is very likely that these small undead creatures will be purified instantly, or they will turn to control and attack you. "

Courant responded without thinking: "Regarding this, please rest assured.

Although I'm just a wild mage, I also know that priests and paladins, who are favored by the gods, are born to be the nemesis of undead creatures.

Now, let's hurry up and close the deal.

You must know that staying up late is not a good habit for mages..."
