Casting spells

As the instigator of all this, Zhang Cheng neither took the initiative to contact the other three tower owners, nor prepared to tip off the leader of the Arcane Brotherhood.

After finishing cleaning and controlling the interior of the North Tower, he closed the door silently and devoured the tens of thousands of books in the library, including arcane arts used by mages, warlocks, and bards, as well as priests, morals, etc. There are even some messy notes and maps about the history, geography, and legends of this continent.

In short, in order to let himself lose control, Zhang Cheng tried his best to fill his head with endless knowledge, and occasionally took time to win over the outstanding talents recommended by Valindra.

In just a few days, four unknown dragon mages quietly appeared in the tower, the worst of them could also cast five-ring arcane spells, and the strongest one could even cast seven-ring arcane spells , each of them controlled a huge intelligence network, as well as several low-level mages and more than a dozen apprentices.

Since the owners of the three minarets in the east, west, and south are all focusing on the central minaret, they have not discovered these extremely hidden infiltrations at all.

Just after Zhang Cheng transformed the Azeroth mage profession template into the spellcasting level of this world with the help of a large amount of theoretical knowledge, the killer he had been looking forward to finally appeared...

"My lord, I found Artemis Entreri. But for some reason, he doesn't want to go near the tower, but wants to meet you at a tavern in the dock area." Gildan from the tower master's private room reported in a low voice.

Different from last time, there was obviously a line of blood on his neck that was drawn by a sharp weapon. You don't need to ask. In the sudden encounter, this veteran soldier who has experienced many battles suffered a big loss, so his tone inevitably carried A trace of resentment.

"Oh? Which tavern?" Zhang Cheng put down the spell book he was making, turned his head and asked with great interest.

Although he has been able to memorize and perform six-ring arcane spells after completing the transformation of the professional template, the level of mages in this world is probably between twelfth and thirteenth.

Of course, this level does not count the knowledge and power he has acquired through his own learning and from the memory of the eredar demons.

To be exact, he hasn't had time to integrate these complex contents into the brand new magic system yet.

In addition, due to the unique magic net system in Faerun Continent, he must have his own spell book.

The reason is simple. In order to remember and cast more spells, spellcasters invented a special technique called temporary memory a long time ago.

They allocate the magic power stored in their bodies into spell memory slots of different heights according to a certain ratio, and then adjust the spells they master every day as needed. Once the spell is successfully cast, the spell will be completely eliminated from the caster's brain, and after a full rest Only then can the memory be re-memorized with the help of the spell book.

In other words, if there is no spell book, once the mages of this world cast the last spell, they will lose the powerful power they are proud of.

But in the same way, with this unique spell-casting technique, both the number of spells they mastered and the number of spells they released far surpassed the mages of Azeroth.

Especially several things named as super magic skills, including silent spell casting, smooth spell casting, spell delay, fixed spell casting, maximum spell effect, spell strengthening, spell expansion, spell expansion, spell upgrade, spell Instant cast, etc., can greatly enhance the power of spells in battle, making strategies and tactics more complex, changeable and elusive.

All in all, a smart mage not only uses powerful magic power to crush the enemy, but also must learn to combine the surrounding terrain, environment, climate, temperature and many other factors, supplemented by a variety of super magic skills, directly forcing the enemy In the case of fighting back, he failed miserably.

For Zhang Cheng, who is eager to gain power and knowledge, this world is simply a huge treasure trove. If it weren't for the whispers and crazy thoughts of the ancient gods constantly echoing in his mind, he would definitely find a safe place to concentrate on his own. Research, completely ignoring changes in the outside world.

But unfortunately, the owner behind the parchment saw through his character flaws, so he set a trap, forcing him to have contact with the outside world.

Gildan obviously didn't know how dangerous and dark the seemingly harmless young man in front of him was, so he handed over a note to himself: "This is the address. I have already visited it personally , is quite a messy place, and once something unexpected happens, he can easily create chaos and escape. In addition, he also brought a young and beautiful girl who looks like a hostage or a prisoner."

"Very good! You did a good job on this matter! Take it, this is your reward. Later, I will send someone to speak to the commander of the northern city, and let you become the most senior commander of the northern gate." After all, Zhang Cheng threw a small bottle of Evolution Potion 2.0 over.

This is a new gadget he has modified based on the native humans of Faerun. Most of the things that are likely to cause atavism have been removed, and only the anger control part is kept.

In any case, Faerun Continent is also a world exposed to a large amount of magical energy, so ordinary people will inevitably absorb and store some energy during the growth process.

This is why professional fighters who have been trained and fought are often stronger, more powerful, and more agile than ordinary people, and some even develop magic resistance and a strong self-recovery ability like trolls.

Zhang Cheng wants to try it out, if Azeroth's anger system is added to it, what kind of interesting changes will happen...

Chapter 442 First Contact

A tavern, a place full of all kinds of noise, stale air, and the most primitive and direct attraction between men and women.

Although Luskan, being a "big city", had at least seven or eight taverns, none of them was as lively as the dock area.

Although not long ago, there was a terrible gang fight here, so that even the bartender and the owner were fired, and now they have to greet the guests with thick bandages, but the sailors don't care about it at all. They still get together to drink cheap drinks, while others negotiate prices with heavily made-up women, and get into the expensive rooms upstairs to engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat.

If the whole of Luskan is regarded as a city of desire, then this tavern is a tiny microcosm.

But today, two strange guests came to the tavern, one of them was wrapped in a black cloak, he couldn't see clearly, and he didn't order any drinks at all, he just ordered a seafood soup and two pieces of bread.

As for the other one, she was a young girl with beautiful long brown hair. She not only had a beautiful face, but also had a rather bumpy figure. It was not comparable to those street girls who could arouse men's desires by relying on cheap perfume and disguise.

Normally, such a pure and beautiful girl is usually the trigger for riots and violent incidents, especially a guy who is drunk and has a strong hormone secretion will definitely not be able to resist approaching and harassing her.

But what's interesting is that when the two hooligans who tried to touch the girl's plump breasts and thighs were pierced by sharp daggers, no one dared to go to trouble again.

None of the people who lived at sea were real idiots, and they all noticed that the man sitting next to the girl exuded a murderous aura. It's their throats.

This is not an ordinary fight in the streets and alleys!

Nor is it violence caused by gangs competing for territory!

This is real killing!

A kind of killing that does not involve any interests, but only for interest and hobbies!

Obviously, the mysterious man who covered his face with a hood enjoyed the pain of his opponent lying at his feet, and enjoyed the stimulation of blood gushing from his throat!

Ever since, everyone was afraid. Maybe they dared to challenge a strong warrior, but they never dared to challenge an executioner hiding in the shadows.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the tavern became oppressive and heavy, and the usually unscrupulous sailors also unconsciously lowered their volume, for fear of accidentally annoying this evil star who came from nowhere.

There is no doubt that this strange pair is the famous Artemis Entreri and Bruno's human adopted daughter - Catti-brie.

"Eat!" The killer pushed the seafood soup and a piece of bread on the table to the girl beside him.

His language is as simple and clear as ever, without a little nonsense.

"No!" Catti-brie, who was full of anger in her heart, directly lifted the soup bowl, her eyes fixed on the other party.

Even though she hadn't eaten for a long time, she still couldn't help but want to test the killer's bottom line.

Snapped!

Artemis Entreri, who had no compassion for women, knocked the girl to the ground with a single slap, with a strong killing intent emanating from his whole body.

Just when Katie-brie thought she was going to die this time, a slightly teasing voice suddenly came from the entrance of the tavern: "Wow! Beating up a woman who is unable to fight back is not what a gentleman should do. Behavior."

I saw two young men dressed as wizards walk in, led by an officer in Luskan-style armor.

"My lord, it's him." Gildan reminded in a low voice.

"Isn't it obvious..."

Zhang Cheng raised the corners of his mouth and showed a playful smile. He approached without panic, bent down and took Katie-brie's hand, and gently held this young girl who will have a series of emotional entanglements with Drizzt in the future. He helped her up, and then said comfortingly as if no one else was around: "Relax, cute girl, no one can hurt you anymore with me here."

"You...you are!!!" Catti-brie seemed to have sensed something, with an expression of shock and fear on her face.

Although it was technically the first time for the two to meet, she had been listening to her adoptive father Bruno and her good friend Drizzt talking about the weird black dragon all winter, so it took little effort to recognize the true identity of the young man in front of her. identity.

"Hush! Please keep quiet, and then sit down and eat something, my little cutie." Zhang Cheng raised his right index finger and put it on the other's lips, and at the same time raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

moment!
