Chapter 107 The Murloc Village
After waiting for a while, Richard came to his senses again and found that he was in a strange environment. There was a faint fishy smell in his nose, and the air was slightly moist. It seemed that he was far away from a certain place. The water source is very close.
He should be in a circular hall, with two rows of braziers placed around it. The blazing flames could clearly be seen shining all around.
The decoration style in the hall is very strange. There are many skulls of strange creatures hanging on the walls, which seem to show the bravery of the owner of this place.
Moreover, the structure of the hall is more like that of primitive tribes in previous lives. It is purely built with wooden strips or tree trunks as retaining walls, and there is a hollow cone-shaped thatch cover on the top.
There is a six-pointed star formation at his feet, which is very similar to the one in the hidden cave before. However, there are big differences in the structure of many runes. When Richard takes a closer look, there are big differences.
In particular, in the middle of the six-pointed star formation here, there is a three-headed snake statue more than two meters high. There is a groove in the middle of the statue, which must be used to place high-level magic stones.
The whole statue is exquisitely carved and lifelike. The eyes of the three snake heads seem to be made of obsidian, and they are vivid and lifelike.
If there is a formation master present, it must be easy to see that this is actually a main formation with positioning and teleportation functions.
What Richard found in the secret cave before was a magic circle, and the statue in Richard's arms happened to be some kind of witchcraft prop that matched the magic circle, and it also had an automatic transmission function.
When he thought of the "culprit", Richard took out the three-headed snake statue from his arms and looked at it angrily. It was this thing that caused him to be teleported.
In his mind, shouldn't something like a teleportation circle require a lengthy spell to trigger before it can be teleported?
But reality taught him a lesson. It turned out that there was a triggering teleportation circle.
Richard took a closer look at the three-headed snake statue in his hand, and then at the large three-headed snake statue in the middle of the circle. Sure enough, except that it was enlarged ten times or so, everything else was exactly the same.
So, could it be that he was transported to the dark waters, that old fishman's tribe?
This shocked Richard and immediately raised his vigilance.
Sure enough, Richard seemed to hear the footsteps of an approaching murloc. Most murlocs had webbed feet, so the sound of footsteps was obviously different from human footsteps. Richard could still tell this.
It seemed that the energy fluctuation of the magic circle in the middle of the night attracted the fishman's attention.
Richard quickly hid behind a thick pillar in the hall, in a dark corner at the back.
He just heard the door creaking and was opened. Richard took a look and saw that it was indeed a fish-man. He was holding a fish bone magic circle. He was dressed like an old fish-man, but he was obviously much younger. He was probably an old fish-man. disciples and the like.
But judging from his sleepy look, he must have been resting before and rushed over to check after sensing the energy fluctuations of the magic circle.
He looked around and found that there was no one around, and the magic circle was as usual, so after muttering a few times in fish-man language, he closed the upper hall door again and walked out.
Richard felt a little relieved, and immediately began to look out through the wooden gaps in the hall wall.
The sky outside was extremely dark, with no moonlight, but there seemed to be some starlight, but it seemed different from normal stars.
There are a large number of stilt houses around, with dim lights shining inside. Presumably this is the large fish-man tribe where the old fish-man lives.
Basically, Richard was sure that he was transported to the fish-man tribe in the Underdark.
This immediately gave Richard the urge to scold his mother!
However, it was not the time to think about this yet. He had to hurry up and escape from this fish-man tribe before making other plans.
Otherwise, if you stay here, you will be discovered sooner or later. But the problem is that the position I am in is the center of the entire murloc tribe. You can vaguely see groups of patrolling murloc warriors all around. Although at first glance, you can see that they are not tall and they should all be ordinary. Murloc warriors, but they can't stand the crowd.
Moreover, the hall is more than two hundred meters away from the outermost light shining point. If he rushes out rashly, he will inevitably be entangled by groups of patrolling murloc warriors. Even ordinary murloc warriors will ant Kill the elephant if you kill him, not to mention that such a large murloc tribe will definitely have high-level warriors left behind.
Moreover, Richard didn't want to fight the murlocs at all. He neither gave energy points nor could he use them to redeem points, because he obviously wouldn't be able to go back in a short time. Collecting a bunch of murloc eyeballs would only increase his load.
After thinking for a moment, Richard came up with a way.
——When
Joachim returned to the Ignis School's headquarters with his fat suture monster, he immediately reported to Mentor Gildas in the VIP lounge.
When Gildas listened to the report of his disciples, he immediately noticed something was wrong. The souls of so many people would not disappear for no reason. It seemed that someone was deliberately covering up something.
He waved his hand, and Jenna's dead head, which was originally stuffed on the Stitch Monster's waist, instantly flew into his hand.
With Jenna's head facing him, a strong wave of dark elemental energy suddenly surged from Gildas's body, his eyes instantly turned completely black, and two black mist shot directly into Jenna's eyes.
Suddenly, the scenes that Jenna saw before her death flashed one by one in Gildas' dark eyes like a slide.
This is a relatively rare first-level witchcraft - the Eye of the Dead. It can read the residual signals on the retinal nerves of a person who has just died, and recall the last few frames that the deceased saw during his lifetime.
This witchcraft does not involve the soul, but if you want to learn it, you need to have a high level of knowledge in biological neurology, neuroconduction, etc.
As long as the deceased's retinal nerves are still there, this witchcraft can be used.
However, this witchcraft has relatively strict requirements on the time of death of the deceased. About an hour after the death of ordinary people, the activity of nerve cells begins to lose, and it cannot be checked through this witchcraft.
The cell activity of wizard apprentices is much higher than that of ordinary people, so some can maintain a certain level of activity for half a day or even a day.
Of course, the higher the activity, the more and clearer the images you can see. The lower the activity, the fewer and blurry images you can see.
Although it has been nearly half a day since Jenna died, Gildas still found what he wanted.
Immediately, he stopped performing this witchcraft and tapped Joachim's forehead with his finger.
In an instant, Richard's lifelike face appeared in Joachim's mind, especially the fact that Richard was dressed in an apprentice's gray robe, with a striking bone stick pattern on his chest, which seemed to mock his incompetence.
At this time, the cold sweat on Joachim's forehead started to flow down. He didn't know where it was, but he had made an oversight. The young boy in his mind must have secretly attacked and killed Jenna while the three of them were fighting the fish-men. Jenna's murderer.
Moreover, the other party turned out to be just a first-level wizard apprentice of the Ignis School, which made him want to dig into a crack in the ground in front of his mentor.
"Damn it! You didn't take anything, and you deliberately arranged the scene to mislead me. And I, a dignified third-level wizard apprentice, was actually teased by a first-level wizard apprentice. This time, I am really embarrassed!" Joachim clenched his fists and looked livid.
"Go check the other party, and I'll leave this matter to you! Joachim, don't let me down again." Gildas took a deep look at Joakim.
Gildas's glance instantly made Joachim feel as if a large basin of ice water had been poured on him from head to toe!
He was all too aware of his mentor's numerous and terrifying cruel methods.
If you have another problem, you will definitely not get any good results!
"Yes, mentor! I will definitely make this kid pay an extremely painful price!" Joachim said through gritted teeth, bowed deeply at 90 degrees, and slowly exited the room.
