Chapter 106 Advice from the Witch
The battle south of Death Basin is over.
Although there will be undead wandering near the battlefield from time to time, the large group of undead nearby may have been gathered together by Abt.
At present, there are three or two low-level undead of these kittens, and the patrolling scouts can eliminate them.
On the battlefield, Mu Hua dragged Aibt's unrecognizable corpse, with a staff floating beside him, still in his shirt and trousers. Anyone who saw him at this time should know that he was a mage who had practiced magic. Magician.
Soul-hungry staff: Magic strength gain by 10%, charge: Bone Soul 2/9, Death Ripple 1/1.
Abt's staff, this staff has two relatively difficult attack magics, of which the 10% magic strength gain can make the magic cast by the holder more powerful.
The properties are dull, the hardness and toughness of the staff body are not very good, and it cannot withstand the impact of weapons.
However, the enchantment of the Bone Soul has relatively high requirements for the magic core. In terms of the magic given by the staff, it can barely be regarded as a high-level staff.
The soul-hungry staff is not a combat-type staff. After Mu Hua acquired it, the size of the staff changed slightly compared to the size of Mu Hua's body proportions in Abt's hands.
An adult's wrist is as thick as one meter and two meters in length, and it looks like a hiking stick when held in the hand.
The body of the staff is made of magic metal mixed with mithril. The magic core is not integrated into the staff, but is embedded in the staff 20 centimeters downward from the top. There are a small amount of hell-style blood lines on the staff.
For the staff, except for the magic core, the material is average and the production process is rough. The maker is somewhat suspicious of it.
After the battle, some adventurers were responsible for collecting the trophies on the battlefield, and ravens appeared in the sky. These blind ravens sometimes used the broken bones of the undead skeletons as food.
Mu Hua dragged Abt's body to a big stone and threw the body at his feet. Mu Hua and Tebitha leaned against the stone and looked at the people busy on the battlefield.
"Mu, you guys are so quick to strike. Ah But, oh, this guy is really miserable." Rubin had already put away his battle ax and came to Mu Hua's side, looking at Abbott's The corpse had a somewhat complicated expression.
For ordinary adventurers, there is actually no loot to collect from this battle.
After the ghost dies, it turns into ashes. Skeleton warriors, skeleton guards, and some skeleton generals all have their own bodies, and they have nothing to drop.
The battlefield was exploded by corpses earlier, and the magic core was completely shattered. What can be collected here is really limited.
But who knows that there are many necromancers and witches among the adventurers participating in this battle.
Not only were there people using instruments to scan the magic core, mages and warlocks were wandering the battlefield, looking for bones that could sense soul fluctuations. Mu Hua even saw someone rummaging through the broken corpses for zombies worth repairing.
This was because all the cold undead corpses belonged to Mu Hua, otherwise, they might have collected the more complete undead skeletons on the battlefield.
The way the Necromancer cleans the battlefield is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to.
The black-armored skeleton general and the death knight were both killed, but unfortunately only the black-armored skeleton general's body was left to Mu Hua.
Even though the bone armor on the black-armored skeletal general was in tatters, it did not delay the logistics personnel from removing equipment from the corpse.
That's right, it means dismantling it, even cutting the buckles to remove the bone armor from people's bodies.
These bone armors are not equipment in the conventional sense. They are part of the body of the black-armored skeleton general, but they can be used as a forging material.
Mu Hua scolded those guys who picked out the bone armor to get out. The body of the black-armored skeletal general belonged to him.
Rubin moved closer to Mu Hua, and Caroline arranged the team and came here.
Mu Hua nodded to Caroline. In the joint team, it was Rubin who was always arranging matters between the two. Mu Hua was more dissatisfied with Rubin.
"Boss, tell me, what's going on?" Mu Hua kicked the Lich's body and asked Rubin.
At this time, Abt may have lost a complete bone in his body, and Tebitha's actions were really dark.
"Oh, he used to be a member of my team, a pretty good young man, but it's a pity..." Rubin looked bitter, but his words were interrupted by Mu Hua waving his hand.
"I'm not interested in what happened between you two. You came to kill him. Why didn't you say anything?"
"Mu, our goal is indeed Aibt, but you also know that we are not sure whether he will show up." Rubin frowned.
"What now? Your goal has been accomplished. There should be many groups of undead in the basin. Do you want to continue?" Mu Hua said calmly.
"The Dead Sea Basin is mostly filled with low-level undead. You see, there are so many of us, and the income here is not suitable."
"But if we go to the Bone Burial Ground, most of the people are a bit weak in strength and lack cooperation, so it is too easy to suffer battle losses." Rubin said hesitantly.
"That means we helped you fight a battle, you fulfilled your wish, and then everyone got nothing and dispersed?" Mu Hua had obvious disgust on his face.
"Haha, it can't be said that there are no gains. The death knight's lance exploded, and the black-armored skeleton general also released two heavy swords and a tower shield. They are all good mid-level equipment."
"We don't want any of the gains from this battle. We will give them all to the guys who are temporarily assisting in the battle." Rubin laughed. As he spoke, his eyes looked at the staff beside Mu Hua, as if to imply that Mu Hua had gained a good harvest.
Leaving aside weapons such as lances and epees, the most important thing about shields and armors is that they contain a certain strength of magic barrier in addition to the strength of the materials.
Just like an energy shield with a certain value, external attacks will consume the value of the energy shield. Until the energy is exhausted, the attack will not touch the armor itself, and this value also determines the grade of the armor to a large extent.
"No? What about you?" Mu Hua looked at Caroline with a tone that was suggestive of provocation.
"I owe him a favor, and I'll pay it back this time." Caroline said with a smile.
Although Caroline has a youthful appearance, she is probably no younger than Rubin. The reason why she looks pink and pretty is probably because she took youth potions when she was young.
That thing can keep a person's physical appearance when taking it, but it does not affect the normal life span of the user. Even so, both the production cost and the selling price are quite expensive.
"Then what about his reward?" Caroline's return of favor was enough to clear her body, and Mu Hua pointed at Abt's body again.
"Mu, this cannot be separated. He did not leave my team before joining the monsters. I need his bounty to maintain the reputation of the team." Rubin said seriously.
"But we killed him." Mu Hua held Tabitha's shoulders, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across Tabitha's face.
"You have got what you want." Rubin looked at the staff floating next to Mu Hua.
"I deserve the staff for blocking the black-armored skeleton general and the death knight. Or do you think this broken staff is worth more than human life?" Mu Hua glared.
"You..." Rubin also got a little angry. What he wanted to say was interrupted by Caroline.
"Okay, Rubin, it's your fault for not clarifying the purpose of the battle at the beginning. You should give Mu Hua some compensation."
Caroline interceded. Mu Hua was different from other adventurers who temporarily joined the war. He was young enough and should have a background. The most important thing was that he had a strong talent for casting spells.
I think Rubin must have discovered this through the previous battle, otherwise he probably wouldn't have such an equal exchange with Mu Hua.
"Okay, okay, what else do you want?" Rubin shook his head and smiled bitterly, spreading his hands and asked.
"The black-armored skeleton general and the death knight's magic stone." Mu Hua said.
"Huh? Magic stone? The death knight's magic stone has not reached level seven. I will pay you four hundred demon gold coins." Rubin was surprised. The magic stone is not a magic core, so what Mu Hua wants is not much.
Two level five magic stones and twenty demon gold coins.
Two level six magic stones and sixty demon gold coins.
Compared with Abt's reward, Mu Hua is nothing.
"No, the rules are very important. I want the magic stone." Mu Hua shook his head. He had discovered earlier that the smelting effect of 'fresh' magic stone seemed to be better than that of 'overnight' magic stone.
"Haha, Mu, you are really old-fashioned. But you are right, rules are really important to us." Rubin laughed.
At this time, Rubin had a better impression of Mu Hua. He only thought that Mu Hua's request for benefits was because he was dissatisfied with Mu Hua's concealment of Abt's affairs, and he was simply expressing his attitude.
"Mu, do you want to join my team? I am confident that the 'Roaring Undead' will complete the brigade registration within ten years." Rubin invited Mu Hua.
"Ten years? You should live for ten years before we talk." Before Mu Hua could speak, Caroline interjected.
"Mu, you shouldn't take risks to hunt demons now, you should grow up in a safe environment." When Caroline said to Mu Hua, several people present were stunned.
Caroline's tone and expression gave off a persuasive feeling, and Rubin and Tebitha instantly understood what she meant.
She probably saw Mu Hua's unorthodox fireball technique, and was probably impressed by Mu Hua's magical talent. After all, Mu Hua was still young, and it would be a pity if he died early in the adventure.
"Well, thank you for your suggestion. Well, actually, my job is to be an educator, a professor at Sprinkle College." Mu Hua did not resist Caroline's kindness and joked, preparing to go to the battlefield. Gather the corpse.
"Oh? Sprinkle? Have you received the notice about the opening ceremony of the branch?" Mu Hua meant to joke, but Caroline's face was full of surprise.
"..." Caroline's question made Mu Hua stiffen, and he turned his head to look at Caroline mechanically.
this. . . Could it be that he is still a colleague? Regarding that professor's status, Mu Hua actually felt guilty.
