Chapter 150 The erosion of the quasi-artifact and the act of revenge.
Under Yin Guang’s narration, Pei Ze gradually understood the origin and beginning of the matter.
Originally, Yin Xue and her companions were ordered to garrison a resource point. Just yesterday, they had just reached the garrison time limit, and after handing over to the wizards who came to change shifts, they were ready to return to Red Maple City.
But on the way, they were ambushed by a witch-hunting force.
There are two fourth-level priests among the enemies, and their strength far exceeds theirs.
The second-level wizard who led the team sacrificed himself to stop all the Winter Frost Priests, which gave others the chance to escape successfully.
But even so, they still suffered heavy casualties, and Yin Xue was seriously injured.
After hearing this, Pei Ze's face had already become very gloomy.
"Haven't the witch-hunting troops been hiding from the witch-hunting troops? Why did they set up an ambush halfway?"
Yin Guang shook his head in frustration: "We don't know, we were the ones chasing them in the past, probably because we wanted to come back for revenge. "
I think they were very organized when they launched the attack. They must have been planning for a long time and have already figured out our actions and strength."
Pei Ze was silent and said nothing more.
He ran all the way to a stone house. Guarding the door were more than a dozen legendary knights with powerful auras, who should be followers of some wizards.
They obviously recognized Yin Guang. When they saw Pei Ze and Yin Guang coming together, they did not stop them and opened the door to let them in.
There are more than a dozen wizards in the spacious living room, standing or sitting, all with a fierce military aura. On their chests, they wear the unique black and red badge of the witch hunting army, with the pattern on the front showing two people holding hands. Scarlet gloves together.
There is also a second-level wizard among them.
Seeing Yin Guang bringing a strange wizard in, the second-level wizard frowned and was about to ask a question when the wizard next to him came to his ear in time and whispered a few words.
The second-level wizard's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes suddenly became a little more surprised and scrutinized when he looked at Pei Ze. He stopped asking any more questions, waved his hand, and motioned for the two of them to go in.
Under the leadership of Yin Guang, the two walked through the living room and went straight to the innermost room.
Yin Guang stopped in front of the door, hesitated for a moment, handed the healing potion in his hand to Pei Ze, and whispered: "You go in, I'll wait outside."
Pei Ze glanced at him and took the potion. , then gently opened the door and walked in.
The room was quiet, the curtains were drawn and the light was dim.
I saw Yin Xue lying quietly on the bed, her hair scattered aside, her face pale, and her delicate and pretty face looked a little transparent in the light.
At this time, she gave people a feeling of weakness that would break if touched even slightly. This was the first time for Pei Ze to see her like this.
In the past, Yin Xue always looked like a calm big sister, gentle and giving people a sense of confidence.
Whenever he gets along with her, Pei Ze feels a sense of inner peace.
But now,
as if she felt someone beside the bed, Yin Xue's eyelids moved, and she slowly opened her eyes. When she saw Pei Ze standing by the window, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her pale face, which soon turned into a faint look. Smile.
"Junior, why are you here?"
The moment she saw Pei Ze, the girl's eyes seemed to brighten.
Pei Ze smiled gently: "I met Yin Guang on the road. I heard that he said that the senior sister was injured, so I rushed over immediately."
Pei Ze sat down by the window, gently lifted Yin Xue up with his hands and feet, and leaned against the bed. , then removed the cork and handed the potion to her lips.
"Drink the potion first."
Yin Xue's eyes showed a touch of tenderness, and she slowly drank the potion according to Pei Ze's movements.
As the effect of the medicine began to take effect, her face suddenly gained a little more color.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with me. I'm just too exhausted. I just need to rest for a while." Yin Xue said softly. Pei Ze smiled
slightly and glanced at Yin Xue's right hand hidden under the quilt.
As early as he stepped into this room, he felt the strong fluctuations of divine grace contained there.
Yin Xue's injuries were by no means as simple as she said.
For wizards, physical injuries are not important, but recovery is more important.
Mental overdraft is a little more troublesome, but you can always recover by taking some time to warm up.
The really serious problems are bloodline pollution, soul damage, and erosion of alien energy.
If Yin Xue's injury was simple, Yin Guang would not use the word "serious injury" to describe it.
It's just that Yin Xue didn't want to say it, and Pei Ze wouldn't expose it. He smiled and nodded: "Yeah, but you need to take a good rest next."
Then Pei Ze chatted with Yin Xue for a while, mainly because he came to Hongfeng The experience behind the city.
Even though she had heard some of it from others, Yin Xue was still surprised when she heard Pei Ze's story with her own ears, covering her mouth from time to time and whispering.
Injured, she seemed to have lowered her guard and looked more like a little girl in front of Pei Ze.
It wasn't until he noticed that Yin Xue looked a little tired that Pei Ze asked her to have a good rest, opened the door and walked out of the room.
After closing the door, Pei Ze turned around to meet Yin Guang's questioning gaze and whispered: "I've drank the potion and gone to sleep."
Then without waiting for Yin Guang's response, he went straight to the living room, looked around, and asked in a deep voice He said: "I want to know what's going on with senior sister's injury."
When the people in the witch hunting army faced ordinary wizards, they more or less had a sense of superiority.
If other first-level wizards asked this question, even if they wouldn't lose their temper, they would never give him a good look.
However, Pei Ze is no ordinary wizard.
Not only was he the most outstanding genius in Chenxi City in the past century, he had personally killed a fourth-level priest, and he was also Yin Xue's junior brother. He was qualified to know the specific situation, both emotionally and rationally.
The sorceress subconsciously looked at the second-level wizard, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he stood up and said: "Yin Xue's injury was caused by a quasi-artifact. That quasi-artifact left a high-intensity divine grace in her body. We temporarily They were sealed in Yin Xue's right hand, and now they are trying to find a way to clean them up. "
Quasi artifact!
Pei Ze's expression suddenly became more solemn.
In the plane of Turin, holy artifacts are magical items forged by high-ranking priests of the sect.
Divine weapons are items with great power that are forged by the gods themselves.
As for quasi-artifacts, they are somewhere in between, referring to magical items that are forged by high-level priests but blessed by gods.
Although the power of quasi-divine weapons is not as good as that of divine weapons, it is far superior to ordinary sacred weapons.
Pei Ze has never seen a quasi-artifact, but he has heard Jiang Rui, Yan Dong and others mention it.
It is said that a quasi-artifact is enough to give a fourth-level priest the power to kill a second-level crystal wizard.
Moreover, because quasi-artifacts have been blessed by gods, their divine grace often has corrosive properties that far exceed the power of ordinary faith.
Even a wizard will spend a lot of time and energy to slowly eliminate it once he is eroded by the divine grace of a quasi-artifact.
Not only is the process painful, it may also leave sequelae in the end.
If the erosion time is too long, it may even cause irreversible damage to the spiritual crystal.
"What can be done to remove that divine favor?" Pei Ze asked with a frown.
"Two ways." The wizard said solemnly, "The first is to ask a fourth-level wizard to take action and use powerful spiritual power to eliminate the divine grace in Yin Xue's body. But now all the fourth-level wizards in Red Maple City have gone On the front battlefield, we can't find anyone to take action at the moment. We are contacting the Yin family and asking them to send someone over." "What about the
second method?" Pei Ze had no expression on his face.
"Take moonlight water." The wizard said, "It is a strange object with a powerful purification effect. After taking it, it can remove most of the alien energy, including the divine grace in Yin Xue's body." "There is moonlight water in the exchange. But the price is very expensive, it costs nine thousand merit points, and we are now trying to find ways to get the merit points."
At this point, the wizard felt slightly embarrassed.
The others also looked unnatural.
Although the benefits and remuneration of the witch hunting troops are very generous, due to the high-intensity fighting, injuries and damage to witchcraft weapons are commonplace. Whether it is healing or maintenance and repair of witchcraft weapons, it requires a lot of expenses.
Not to mention exchanging training resources.
They are eager to use every merit point to improve their strength, lest they die on the battlefield due to lack of strength and the accumulated merit points will be in vain.
So everyone, including the second-level wizard, didn't have much leftover.
Nine thousand merit points is not a small amount, and it is not easy to collect it in a short while.
"Don't worry." Yin Guang whispered, "I have contacted the family. They are trying to find ways to find the moonlight water. It should be delivered the day after tomorrow at the latest." "The day after tomorrow?" Pei Ze frowned, "As far as I
know You know, the longer the divine grace of the quasi-artifact stays in the body, the greater the possibility of leaving sequelae after treatment."
Yin Guang was silent, of course he also knew this.
But for a while, they couldn't find the rare moonlight water immediately.
Whether the family is looking for moonlight water or sending it to the battlefield, it will take time.
After all, Red Maple City is not within the Yin family's influence. If it were in Howling City or Jinglan City, things would be much easier to solve.
If I had known earlier, I should have persuaded my cousin not to come to Red Maple City.
When Yin Guangzheng was secretly regretting it, he saw Pei Ze throw something at the wizard.
The latter subconsciously caught it, looked down, and immediately let out a low cry.
"Mithril!"
"This mithril is enough to exchange for moonlight potion." Pei Ze said.
There was sudden silence in the hall.
Everyone looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
They were not surprised that Pei Ze could bring out mithril. After all, it was rumored that Pei Ze had won a mithril resource point, so it was not surprising that he had mithril in his hand.
What surprised them was that just to let Yin Xue recover a day or two earlier, Pei Ze actually threw away mithril worth nine thousand merit points without blinking an eye. This was too extravagant!
For a moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Pei Ze.
Yin Guang stared at Pei Ze blankly for a while, with a complicated expression on his face.
"Please go to the exchange." Pei Ze looked at the wizard.
The latter woke up from a dream, subconsciously said yes, and then walked out of the stone house quickly.
Pei Ze then looked at the second-level wizard and asked, "What is your name?"
"My name is Gao Qun."
Perhaps because of Pei Ze's actions just now, the wizard named Gao Qun looked much gentler.
"Lord Gao Qun." Pei Ze was not polite and said straight to the point, "I want to know the information about the fourth-level priest who injured the senior sister."
Gao Qun nodded and said, "I don't know the specifics. I only know that the man was a high-ranking member of the witch-hunting force. According to those who were attacked at the time, the other Winter Frost Priests called him Lord Maynard."
Pei Ze took out the magic map, unfolded it on the coffee table in the living room, and asked: " Senior sister, where is the place where they were ambushed?"
Gao Qun took a look and pointed on the map: "It's right here."
Pei Ze looked intently and saw that the place was more than 300 kilometers away from the mithril resource point in a straight line. .
Considering that not long after he came out of the mithril resource point, he also encountered the combat priests of the witch hunting force, the scope of these people's activities was obviously very wide.
From this point of view, it is not easy to find the fourth-class priest named Maynard.
Gao Qun was also vaguely aware of Pei Ze's thoughts at this time, and his brows suddenly frowned: "You want to deal with Maynard?"
Pei Ze glanced at him and nodded calmly.
Although there is a fate of life and death on the battlefield, when you go to the battlefield, you must be mentally prepared to die. It is normal to be ambushed by the enemy and be seriously injured.
But Pei Ze is not a saint. His friend almost died and is still seriously injured and lying in bed. Of course, he will not just let it go.
"Don't be impulsive!" Gao Qun said solemnly, "Maynard holds a quasi-artifact in his hand. Even a second-level crystal wizard may not be his opponent. If you go out rashly, you may not be able to get revenge even if you find him. Hatred."
In fact, Gao Qun was putting it mildly.
In his opinion, although Pei Ze was powerful and even had the record of killing a fourth-class priest, Maynard was not an ordinary fourth-class priest.
Even if he encounters a fourth-class priest who holds a quasi-divine weapon, he must avoid the sharp edge temporarily.
If Pei Ze really went to deal with Maynard alone, he might suffer a big loss or even lose his life.
"Don't worry, the witch-hunting troops have caused us such a big loss this time, and we will make them pay sooner or later!" Gao Qun said seriously.
However, when Pei Ze heard this, he shook his head calmly.
"That's your business."
After saying that, he put away the magic map and turned to leave the stone house.
Since he couldn't get any useful information from the witch hunting troops, he didn't plan to waste any more time and was ready to leave the city now.
However, not far out of the stone house, Yin Guang caught up with him.
"Wait a minute!"
Yin Guang strode to Pei Ze's side and looked at him solemnly.
"I'll go with you!"
Pei Ze frowned slightly: "I don't have the energy to look after you." "No need
, I have a trump card. I can get out on my own at critical moments and won't be a burden to you."
Seeing Yin Guang's expression Determined, Pei Ze's eyes moved slightly, but he finally nodded and agreed.
"Okay."
Without any delay, Pei Ze sent a message directly to Su Ya and Peng Yan, instructing them to do something. Then he and Yin Guang rushed straight to the city gate.
Not long after the two arrived at the city gate, Su Ya and Peng Yan also came over with the giant eagle in hand.
Without any nonsense, the four of them immediately boarded the giant eagle.
Yin Guang did not prepare any means of transportation, so he could only share a ride with Peng Yan.
The three giant eagles spread their wings and soared into the sky, flying out of Red Maple City and rushing into the depths of the wilderness.
