Chapter 56 Exchange


Chapter 56 Exchange

With the capture of the ratman leader Lanni alive, and the tragic death of more than three hundred ratmen, this short battle, or rather a one-sided massacre, that took place in the sewers of Calim Port finally came to an end. Completely concluded.

Aipke personally escorted the prisoner back to his home lair, intending to have the chief torture expert pry open the prisoner's mouth.

Before leaving, he not only promised to send a gift that would satisfy Zuo Si soon, but also sent some men to deal with the corpses.

Obviously, the leader of the Thieves Guild does not want too many people to know what happened in the sewer at midnight today.

However, dealing with more than 300 large rats that are as tall as a person is undoubtedly not an easy task.

Even if you throw them into the sea, you have to at least dismember them a little.

Otherwise, someone who is interested will soon discover it.

At this critical moment, Zuo Si stood up again and used his superb anatomical skills to conquer everyone present, including magic consultant Culang.

I saw that with only a two-finger-long, extremely thin knife in his hand, he could easily bleed, skin, remove bones, and dig out the internal organs of a rat-man corpse in less than a few minutes. Cut the meat into pieces of different sizes according to the muscle texture.

The delicate movements like art and the understanding of the body structure of humanoid creatures are simply breathtaking.

It is estimated that even butchers who specialize in slaughtering pigs, cattle, sheep and other domestic animals will not be able to help but give a thumbs up and give a thumbs up.

The most important thing is that these Thieves Guild people could not see any uncomfortable reactions such as fear, nausea and disgust on Zuo Si's face.

Just the opposite!

He showed no expression when dismembering the rat men, and also took the opportunity to collect some specially processed bones, internal organs, eyeballs and blood as materials for spellcasting and research.

At this moment, no one dared to doubt that the boy in front of him who looked about ten years old was a powerful necromancer.

Because except for the necromancers who deal with corpses all day long, no one can dismember hundreds of corpses in one breath without changing their expressions.

Even the veteran in the guild who has been responsible for dismembering corpses all year round couldn't help but hide in the corner and vomit after working for a while.

Of course, these people have no idea that the main reason why Zuo Si chose to stay and help was because he wanted to have close contact with these recently dead corpses and drain the last remaining magical energy from the rat-men.

After a few hours of tossing, he got almost an average of 5 points of general mana from each rat man.

Three hundred is 1,500 mana points.

In addition, Zombie Rats also contributed a lot of extra black mana.

After waiting for more than two hours, all the rat-man corpses were dismantled into "parts" and thrown into the sea. Only then did everyone crawl out of the sewers and stand under the night sky, greedily breathing in the water without the smell of blood or stench. Fresh air.

After a full minute, Culang smiled bitterly and sighed: "Okay, now I finally understand that I am probably not suitable for studying necromancy magic. Especially when facing a large number of people all day long The dead body is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear."

"No, you are wrong.

The essence of necromancy magic has never been to awaken and control the dead.

But explore the mystery between life and death, break the boundaries between the two, and even allow yourself to gain eternal life.

As for creating undead creatures, flesh and blood puppets, and studying various curses, diseases, instant death and negative energy spells, they are just by-products obtained during the exploration process.

If you mess up even this, you will be nothing more than a second-rate necromancer for the rest of your life. "

Zuo Si corrected him seriously.

And this sentence is also the core concept that Asta, the Archmage of the Necromancer, clearly stated repeatedly in the first lesson of "Introduction to Necromantic Magic".

"Explore the mystery between life and death? Let yourself gain eternal life!"

Courant's eyes shone slightly, as if he was imagining his own way of mastering the relationship between life and death. The great power of time.

But soon he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "That's too far away for me now. If possible, I hope to get you to make a zombie rat possum tonight through trade. A complete set of magic rituals that can bomb. This is the magic knowledge and skills that I can actually learn and use at this stage. "No problem! But what are you going to use in exchange?" asked with interest.

"I think this should be enough."

As he spoke, Courant took out a very unique copper lamp from his pocket. In Calimshan, almost every household has an oil lamp with this shape.

The only difference is that it obviously has a strong magic wave.

“A magic lamp? There shouldn’t be a giant spirit trapped inside it!”

Zuo Si seemed to have guessed something, with an extremely surprised expression on his face.

Because the Calimshan region in ancient times had a history of endless battles between the djinn that came from across planes and the efreet that came from across planes.

So here, a lamp or bottle containing magical power has a high probability of being an unlucky giant spirit that was captured and sealed in the first place.

Kulang nodded with a complicated expression: "Yes! There is a giant spirit sealed in this lamp.

But it is not the fire giant or wind giant that most people think. Spirit, or earth giant spirit, water giant spirit, but a rare small giant spirit

This is the smallest and weakest of all djinn.

Both height and weight are very close to humans.

And he has some spell-like abilities. ”

“I don’t understand. Since there is a giant spirit sealed in the lamp, its value must be very high. Why don't you keep it for yourself or sell it to the magic items market? "

Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and asked a question.

He has always been vigilant about everything around him, so he doesn't believe that something will happen to fall on his head.

"Because..."

A trace of embarrassment flashed in Courant's eyes, and he explained a little sheepishly: "Because the maker of this lamp has set very complicated rules.

Those who want to use it must correctly answer the riddles raised by three little giants in a row, otherwise she has the right to refuse any of your requests.

In addition, if there are three in total. If all riddles are answered incorrectly, the sealed little djinn will be freed

I have failed twice before and now I have only one last chance. "

"In other words, after I get this lamp, I only have one chance left? ”

Zuo Si quickly showed an expression that was just as expected.

He had already predicted that if there really was a giant spirit in the lamp that could be controlled by people, even the weakest It was impossible for the other party to use the little giant spirit as a bargaining chip so easily.

However, Zuo Si couldn't help but think of a valuable magic item being harmed by the idiot in front of him. I felt heartbroken.

"Yes. But I believe that with your strength and wisdom, Mr. Soss, you will definitely be able to deal with the little giant spirit inside." Culang said the compliment carefully.

He also knew that the value of this magic item, which was originally worth at least tens of thousands of gold coins, was greatly reduced because of his two failed challenges.

Even the merchants in the Magic Market are not willing to buy such a garbage thing at a low price with no fault tolerance at all.

Zuo Si stared at the golden oil lamp covered with invisible magic runes and pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Deal!

But let me declare it in advance!
< br>

As for the technique of using zombie rats to create negative energy bombs, it's best never to use it in front of a priest.

Because of their ability to disperse and rebuke the undead, they are very likely to instantly purify these small undead creatures, or turn them around to control and attack you. "

Courang responded without thinking: "Please rest assured about this.

Although I am only a wild mage, I also know that guys like priests and paladins who are favored by the gods are born to be the nemesis of undead creatures.

Now, let’s hurry up and get this deal done.

You know, staying up late is not a good habit for a mage..."
