The Lord of Ashes

With so many resource materials and rare specimens discovered, it’s no wonder that Thain is obsessed with them.

He originally only wanted to hang out in the battlefield of the Gumo plane for five years, and his main purpose was to obtain the fire attribute resources and materials produced by the Holy Tower of Dark Fire.

But he didn't expect that the attraction and special attributes brought to him by the Gumo plane would exceed Thain's expectations before the war.

Of course, during the war, Thain actually broke away from the battle and "sluggishly fought" without permission. A large part of the reason was that since diving into the ground to a depth of 10,000 meters, Thain's temporary holy tower badge temporarily lost contact with the fortress headquarters. connect.

Thain judged that the rich metal deposits underground in the Gumo plane, especially those magnetic metals, interfered with the external communication frequency of the Holy Tower Emblem from a special position.

The current situation is that Thain cannot contact the combat command, and the combat command does not know the situation on Thain's side.

He is equivalent to taking two women, Natalya and Lenna, to play solo.

However, the recording function of the Holy Tower Badge did not stop because of this.

The results and enemy kill numbers obtained by Thane and others in the underground world will soon be communicated to the Holy Tower combat headquarters after they return to the surface a certain distance away.

When the time comes, how much reward should be given to Thain for the mission?

As for that, there was a long period of blank fighting period... As an alchemist who had dismantled the Holy Tower emblem during his apprenticeship, Thain could intercept and delete such a piece of recorded information, which was not difficult.

In fact, Thain is not the first, and definitely not the last, "cunning magician" who used cheating and crooked ways to survive plane wars and even modify the number of enemies killed on the Holy Tower emblem without authorization.

There are good people and bad people in any world, and there are also despicable, insidious, cunning, and greedy guys among the magicians.

If it was just timidity and avoidance of fighting, it would be okay. The most the Holy Tower could do was deduct the opponent's mission gains during the war and directly kick the opponent out.

But if the number of enemy kills is maliciously modified, and a non-existent enemy killing scene is artificially created, and if the Holy Tower detects it, the punishment of the Holy Tower rules is not something that ordinary people can bear!

It can range from dozens to hundreds of years of imprisonment, to banishment from the wizarding world, or even be directly sentenced to death.

(PS: This is so serious because lying about the number of enemies killed and combat experience will cause the Holy Tower Combat Command to misjudge some situations.

This will affect large-scale decision-making and may lead to more innocent knights and magicians being imprisoned. )

This is how many black magicians who are newly born or wanted in the wizarding world every year originally came to be. Thain's pursuit of truth is certainly not the behavior of a black magician.

He was just taking advantage of loopholes in the rules.

Besides, it is true that Thane left the battle, but it does not mean that Thain has withdrawn from the battle.

His slave, Yuli, who has a second-level life level, is still driving the constructed golem to fight in the underground world. These battle gains will be attributed to Thain in the end.

The two girls including Natalya and Lenna, after gradually adapting to the environment of the underground world, also ran around, killing injured Golou earthworms a lot during this time.

Not to mention, three days before Thain entered the experimental research state, they worked together to destroy a place where the eggs of the Gorodi Earthworm Clan were accumulated.

After the two sexes of the Golou earthworm family reproduce, the eggs they lay need to rely on the power of geothermal heat to hatch.

There were at least more than 100,000 eggs of various sizes in the place where Thane and his team destroyed the insect egg accumulation area.

The largest one was one meter in diameter, and Thain judged that it was at least the eggs laid by the second-grade Golo earthworm.

Of course, there are also some pocket insect eggs that are the size of rice grains. These should be the eggs laid by ordinary Goloudi earthworms. The number of these pocket insect eggs is the largest.

Thain judged that these eggs were placed here intentionally by the Goloudi earthworm clan.

As insectoid creatures with low intelligence, the young individuals of the Gorodi earthworm family have a very short time to grow to the mature stage, and this process can be catalyzed again by external forces!

These Golou earthworm eggs, which hatched and grew rapidly with the help of geothermal power, should be the reserve force for the battlefield in Akale Plains.

It must have been only one of the places that Thain and others destroyed. No one knows how many other places where these eggs gather.

Judging from combat achievements, Thain, together with Lenna and two female knights, directly destroyed such a large incubation base. Which third-level magician can compare to him?

Who would mind that Thane took some time off from his busy schedule to do small things like his own research and magic?

Of course, don’t take these Goloudi earthworm egg accumulation bases too seriously, which are still in the state of incubation.

If only relying on a large number of accelerated and mature Golo earthworms could defeat the wizard world army, the indigenous creatures of the Gumo plane would have won the war long ago. How could they have fought hard and fiercely with the wizard civilization for twelve years.

Maybe Thane still has some dark magician habits in his heart. Anyway, he doesn't have any psychological pressure on his behavior of taking time off from work.

At this time, Thain was engaged in research in the dark environment of the underground world. The main subjects of his experiments were the embers of the Dark Fire that he had just obtained, followed by the special resources collected in the underground world.

There is no such thing as day and night in the underground world, and Thain, who devoted himself to experiments, could not feel the passage of time at all.

[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, and a source-changing app used by old bookworms,]

Thain only knew that every time he studied the embers of dark fire more deeply, his understanding of the mystery of the fire element became deeper.

Under this continuous research, the power of the fire element in Thane's body is also undergoing inexplicable changes.

Sometimes, Thane's body would ignite a flame unconsciously.

This is not because Thain cannot control the elements in his body, but simply because Thain has half a foot on the threshold of level three.

Many third-level magicians will have this kind of elemental manifestation on the eve of promotion.

The flames rising on Thane's body are not real flames, but the materialization of pure magic elements.

The emergence of this situation made Thane sigh in his spare time. He might be promoted to level three earlier than Lenna, who had been stuck at the bottleneck for a long time.

Just when Thain was immersed in the rapid growth process of acquiring the truth and improving himself.

One day, Lenna and Natalya suddenly interrupted Thain's experiment.

"What happened?" Thain asked with some displeasure.

To the magicians, being interrupted in their experiment is as bad as a pervert who has just taken off a beautiful woman's clothes and is about to enter the harbor when he discovers that she is coming.

Unless there are very special circumstances, Natalya and the two girls, who have long been accustomed to getting along with Sean, will never interrupt his experiment rashly.

"Have we discovered another Golo Earthworm egg base?" Thain asked impatiently.

Two months ago, he followed Natalya and the two girls and destroyed another insect egg base.

Oh, by the way, nearly half a year has passed since Thane and his team entered the underground.

Only a truth lunatic like Thain who is addicted to experiments will not care about the passage of time.

The two women naturally noticed Sean's impatience.

However, the expressions of the two women were more solemn at this time, and Natalya said: "No, we have discovered a more serious and mysterious place, and we need you to go and see it with us."

Natalya's answer gradually turned the impatience on Sean's face into a serious look.

After taking a deep breath, Thain still understood the priorities. He put away the ice soul experimental table in front of him and said, "Where is it? Let's go and take a look!"
