Chapter 6 The Ring of Arcane
The main chip has certain prediction capabilities, but this prediction capabilities are based on the information flow feedback from Lance's body systems. In other words, the more sensitive Lance's body organs - such as eyes and ears, the stronger the prediction capabilities of the fox will be.
In the process of comparing swords with Eric, ordinary prediction ability is enough, but this time, in order to deal with the Frost Earth Demon leader, Lance had to activate a more powerful prediction system.
Using the powerful insight ability of sub-chip Hawkeye, we can temporarily share information with the main chip fox to make more accurate predictions.
But in this way, the physical energy consumed by Lance will be very terrifying. In five seconds, he will lose all his combat ability!
"The prediction system is turned on!"
Lance's left eye was a scope, but in his right eye there was a three-dimensional three-dimensional model of the Frost Earth Demon Leader. At this time, in his eyes, the next move of the Frost Earth Demon Leader appeared countless possibilities, and the most likely next step had been marked with the red sign.
"You're dead!" Lance said silently in his heart.
Whoosh!
An arrow shot out, attacking like a meteor. The body of the leader of the Frost Earth Demon moved slightly—
The model in Lance's right eye immediately changed drastically, and the red area became much smaller!
"That's it! I see how you hide!" According to the prediction of the red mark, the second arrow had already hit the string!
Chirp!
Like the previous few times, the Frost Demon Leader deftly avoided the first arrow.
He made a smug voice.
However, the next second, the sound came to an abrupt end—
A sharp arrow pierced through his chest and penetrated him directly!
The second arrow, Lance will not miss it.
Poirot was overjoyed and hurriedly went up to repair a few swords, directly destroying the leader of the Frost Earth Demon.
However, Lance, who was standing on Eric's shoulder, had his legs and feet weakened, and he fell down from his shoulders.
"Master Lance!" Everyone was shocked.
Eric looked at Lance who was lying on the ground in panic. His face was very weak and he was breathing like a fucking spring.
"Master Lance, are you okay?" Eric asked in a hurry.
Lance lay flat on the ground. Fortunately, the land in the valley was very soft, otherwise he would have to be injured if he fell like this. After a while, he recovered and said weakly, "I, I'm fine."
“I just need a break.”
He said intermittently, scaring Eric so much that he didn't say a word, fearing that Lance would swallow directly.
"Four seconds, it's not even five seconds yet, and the physical strength is exhausted!" Looking at the data fox feedback, Lance smiled bitterly. This feeling of exhaustion is not good.
My physical condition is still too bad! Fortunately, I killed the leader of the Frost Earth Demon, otherwise I would be in danger today.
He calmed down and simply lay on the ground and slowly recovered his strength.
...
Half an hour later, the frost demon in the valley was finally wiped out.
As soon as the leader of the Frost Earth Demon died, the monsters were in a mess. Under the leadership of Poirot, the soldiers fought hard, and each of them was stained with a lot of black blood, which showed the tragic battle.
In the end, all the monsters died, and the corpses lying all over the valley.
Everyone surrounded Lance and looked at Lance with some concern.
"Master Lance, do you want to drink water?" asked an enthusiastic soldier. "I see there is a small lake there, and the water is still clean..."
Lance lay there and hurriedly ordered: "Don't get close to that lake for everyone!"
Everyone was stunned, and Lance explained: "That lake is the source of the demonization of the frost land!"
The soldier who was talking immediately turned green, and the rest showed a look of shock. Fortunately, they were summoned by Poirot after they killed the monster, and no one went to the lake to drink water alone. Otherwise, they might have become as unreasonable as those frost demons.
"Eric, help me up." After a while, Lance's physical strength finally responded, but he was still exhausted.
"Master Lance, why don't I have someone carry you back?" Poirot advised: "You are very weak now."
Lance shook his head: "Eric."
The blonde boy didn't say much and gently helped Lance up.
Lance stood up and felt a moment of dizziness. His feet were stepping on the ground as if they were on cotton, which was as soft as they were.
"It's so embarrassing..." Lance smiled self-deprecatingly and said to Eric: "Help me over and go around the lake."
So the soldiers surrounded the two and walked towards the lake.
Under the guidance of Reims, Eric helped him to the side of the mountain wall, and a stream slowly flowed down the crack above.
Lance stretched out his hand and gently took out the purple-red object in the crack.
This is a ring.
"It's it." Lance felt the mysterious arcane energy emitted from it, and finally smiled relieved.
"We can go back."
...
"Master Lance, my son usually sleeps in this room. Although he is out far away now, people come to clean it every day. You spend the night here today, I hope you won't feel uncomfortable." The old man said, putting new candles on the candlestick on the table, and then tidying up the things in the room for Lance before leaving the room.
Lance sat slowly on the edge of the bed, so tired that his whole body was sore.
This is not a castle, but the residence of a farmer near the Coniferous Forest Farm. After all, it was already midnight after everyone wiped out the monsters, so there was no need to hurry back to the castle, so they found a place to stay overnight at the farmer.
The other soldiers probably had already fallen asleep, but Lance sat there, very tired, but he still refused to fall asleep.
"Let's better identify the origin of this demonized item first." Lance carefully took out the ring from his arms and placed it under the candlestick.
There is no doubt that this is a real level 1 magic item. Generally speaking, elementary apprentices can make level 0 magic items, such as Lance has made the human-beating grass before; and level 1 magic items are something that can be made by higher apprentices.
For Lance, this was an unexpected gain.
Based on the knowledge of magical objects taught by Amman, he began to detect them one by one.
"Fortunately, I learned the 0th level spell of Magic Guidance, otherwise many of the performances involving magic driving would not be verified." Lance thought so in his mind.
Who knew that this appraisal was approved for a full midnight!
It was not until dawn the next day that Lance had red eyes before he had completely identified the magic item.
This magic item should be an arcane ring.
Arcane generally refers to the mysterious unknown energy in witchcraft. It has its own unique spell factor, but this kind of spell factor is not common in the secular world and can only be absorbed in many specific places. This creates a situation where arcane masters are generally rare.
Based on Lance's detection and test, he temporarily determined that the Arcane Ring has two functions.
First, the space storage function. This Arcane Ring has six spaces of storage space, each space can place an object with a volume of no more than 0.6 cubic meters, but does not include living things.
Second, an arcane can be released every day. Lance studied it and found that the arcane that solidifies in this arcane ring should be [Frenzy Mind], a very rare arcane technique.
"Those monsters drank the water mixed with the [Fraudulent Mind] Arcane, and then they became alienated." Lance finally clarified the causes and consequences.
The crazy mind can cause the target unit to be mentally ill. This magical item landed in the stream for some reason. Since no one controlled it, it would automatically release the arcane energy inside to the surroundings at regular intervals. It happened that the group of frost land monsters were drinking water here. The arcane energy became less irritable after being diluted, but it mutated these monsters.
As for where this Arcane Ring draws arcane energy from so that it can release an arcane every day, Lance hasn't figured it out yet. After all, he doesn't know much about arcane, so he can only see if there are any related records in Amman's collection.
What made Lance even more concerned was whether the Arcane Ring fell in the stream meant that there were powerful mages nearby - at least advanced apprentices passing by?
"No matter what, I picked up this Arcane Ring and it belongs to me."
Lance liked the ring the more he looked at it, and without hesitation, he put it on his left index finger. After using the magic power of the 0th level spell to guide the magic connection with this magic item, he could take out the things stored in the ring with just one thought, or stuff it in. Of course, he could also use the same method to release the arcane.
"I finally have a slightly stronger spell." Although my body was very tired, Lance was extremely happy.
This is the charm of witchcraft. Once people become addicted to it, they will tirelessly pursue more powerful witchcraft power.
Lance, of course, too.
...
One day later, Lance, who was sitting in the carriage borrowed by Poirot, finally returned to the castle.
However, as soon as he entered the castle gate, he heard a bad news that shocked him!
