Chapter 486: Roosters and Dog Thieves(1/2)
Author: Night Knight
The ghost cloak is also unsuccessful. Although it transforms people into a ghost state, it does not become a true spirit. Its invisibility is shadow invisibility, which cannot allow it to enter the etheric plane.
Counting his fingers, Gavin could not find a way to enter the cabin.
Going around and around, at first it was hard to see the crying witch looking for a breakthrough.
That matter was beyond Gavin's control. The only thing he could do was to wait for the Weeping Witch to appear.
When night falls and the moon appears.
The fog shrouding the hut became thicker, and a phantom slowly floated out of the hut.
To be more precise, the fog that shrouded the cabin began to pull away and gather together, forming the phantom of the Weeping Witch.
Seeing that scene, Gavin couldn't help but smile.
My guess was correct. The hut was the anchor point for the Weeping Witch and the medium for her to enter the material plane. Once the hut was destroyed, she would probably be unable to enter the material plane and would be completely lost in the etheric plane.
The Ethereal Plane has another name - the Lost Land.
That proved in disguise that I was looking in the wrong place.
"He begged to kill me!"
The Weeping Witch, who appeared in the phantom image of the ape chat again, found out that her secret magic cabin had been dug out, and she immediately fell into a rage.
With five big characters on his head, he rushed towards Gavin.
Gavin had been prepared for this, so he just stood there, not dodging or evading, and allowed the silent phantom to pass through him.
The cold liquid emanates from the inside to the outside.
The coldness was different from the biting coldness of negative Keliang, but more damp and cold.
That's all. The wrong party is just a phantom made of etheric mist, which can't cause substantial harm to Gavin.
Gavin neither tried to resist nor defend, but just let her scratch and scratch him.
The wrong party is now in a state of rage, and it is useless to try to say anything.
However, Silent Phantom's self-control ability was beyond Gavin's imagination, and it did not last until the power was exhausted.
After only venting for a few seconds, he returned to Gai Wen, and a line of small words in the mist appeared above his head: "What do I want to ask for?"
"He wanted to communicate with me calmly and get what we needed." Gavin did not express his demands on his legs. In those days, he seriously reflected on the way he mistreated the Crying Witch and found that there were big problems.
.
Because from the beginning, he targeted the Netherese magic book, treating the Weeping Witch as an information source and an obstacle.
Just think about what you need, and not what the other party needs, and the communication will naturally end in failure.
The Weeping Witch's request is very simple, that is, let Gavin and the others leave completely and give up exploring the wrong place.
But if you don’t know the fundamental reason behind it, you are afraid of exposing your biggest secret and letting yourself be threatened.
"Let me tell you, how can everyone get what they need?" After her biggest secret was exposed, the Weeping Witch had to re-examine the young man.
It is obvious that the wrong party is well prepared, knows exactly what he wants to ask for, and is measurable and unmatched by ordinary people.
In just a few months, the secrets he had hidden so deeply were revealed.
Since his own body is in the material plane, he must be able to crush it to death, but no problem, according to the progress of the wrong party, the wrong party will not be able to wait until that time, and the wrong party will be able to find a way to break through the hut.
"He has said before that driving them away is not a solution to the symptoms but not the root cause. Why don't they put aside their prejudices and find a way to coexist?" Gavin said eloquently, "Madam, driving them away from here is nothing more than a solution.
Otherwise, your anchor point in the material world is here. Once it is destroyed, you will be lost in the fog.
But even if they leave, I can't stop others from entering. After all, a woman's power in the material plane is limited. With her scary legs alone, she can defeat ordinary people with slightly more powerful professions.
Otherwise, it will have no effect, but will attract unwanted attention.
He was willing to keep that secret for the lady and protect my anchor from any damage."
"What do I want to ask for?" Silent Phantom repeated the first words again.
"Arcanist." Gavin revealed his previous purpose, "He seeks the method to advance to become an Arcanist."
He has not had that purpose from beginning to end. There is no difference whether he obtained it from the Netherese Magic Book or from the Weeping Witch's Leg.
Gavin clearly felt that the silent phantom fluctuated, and seemed to be much more relaxed. There was a kind of mood swing that I had mentioned earlier.
Due to the recent frequent adjustments to Guan Xin Wine, Gavin is particularly sensitive to other people's emotional fluctuations. The Silent Phantom is now a spiritual body, so it is naturally easier to sense.
"He can teach me the method of becoming an arcanist, but otherwise I ask to seal this place again." The small words in the mist appeared above the head of the silent phantom, and at the same time, the wrong leg also pointed to the opened east passage.
That situation made her very insecure.
"No problem, it will be closed tomorrow." Gavin readily agreed.
Anyway, he has no way to enter the hut for a while now. The wrong party has obviously deceived others, and the hut cannot be escaped. If he can open it the first time, it will not be difficult to open it the second time.
"Three months later, here and now." The last line of small words appeared in the silent phantom, and then disappeared again.
With accurate time, it would be a good thing for Gavin to go wrong. He would not have to be crucified here and could go to other things.
After three days of coming to the east, apart from the unshakable enlightenment trees, the remaining time was spent in the abandoned quarry.
Just as Gavin calculated, the further you go, the fewer kobolds you can gather every day. When the total number reaches 500, there are only a few dozen kobolds that can be gathered every day. The labor is not proportional to the effort. Gavin
Just stop this matter and focus on rebuilding the quarry.
As for the miserable appearance of the kobolds in Stone Bridge Hills, if they make a little noise there, the quality of life of those kobolds will improve, and those wild kobolds will take refuge at the door.
Goss brought a strange-looking humanoid creature in front of Gavin, put a lid on the jar and said charmingly: "Lord, with a clever plan and a little trick, the monsters there were forced out. He will not stay here."
Dakar, the leader of the freaks.”
He turned back to the deformed man and said arrogantly: "The person standing in front of me now is Lord Gavin, the King of Dragons and the sacred guardian of the Dragon Oak Territory. If I have any appeals, please tell me.
"
Goss used his actual actions to explain what it means to be a person with two sides.
In front of Gavin, he just nodded and bowed his little legs.
In front of those outsiders, could he be an extremely noble envoy of the lord?
Gavin's eyes couldn't help but fall on the deformed man, his eyes searching.
That man has the upper half of a human body, but the eastern half of a horse.
At first glance, it looks like a centaur, but if you look closely, you will find that it lacks the coordination of a real centaur.
The horse in the eastern half of the body is extremely strong, but it does not look like a human being, and it does not look like an old man.
Where the two meet, there are shocking suture scars.
How about forcibly piecing together half of the bodies of two completely different creatures?
But what's weird is that not only did the wrong party not die, but he could walk like a centaur.
The secret should lie in the strangeness that filled his body. The deformed man in front of him was not a real creature, but half human and half undead. The half of his body that belonged to a human was alive, and the half that belonged to a horse was full of...
The dead object with the power of death is more like a unique death device.
The power of life and death has reached a strange balance in the creature in front of you.
The deformed man named Dakar was so humble in front of Gavin, "Dakar has seen the lord. He came on behalf of the deformed people in the mine. I hope you can let them live. I beg you."
Let go, and they are willing to all move away from this place and never come back again. In return, they are willing to dedicate all their property to the lord."
Even races that are not too smart, such as goblins and kobolds, will compromise when faced with disadvantages, not to mention other intelligent creatures. They will try to negotiate and resolve many things, and they will only act when they have no choice.
force.
Those deformed people are no exception. The young red dragon hovering in the mine is a terrifying existence that they cannot contend with, let alone Gavin who can control it. Using money to exchange for mercy from the wrong party is not the best choice.
"Tell us our story." Gavin did not express his position directly, but asked curiously.
Dakar's face was filled with unconcealable sorrow and indignation: "They are just a group of poor people who were forced to do nothing. That bastard Delroz did something to them that was outrageous to both humans and gods, and turned them into human beings."
Fortunately, he walked into the portal in Didong and never came out again. They took the opportunity to escape from his Didong laboratory.
But their strange appearance has made it impossible for them to return to the human race. He once went there to quarry stones and knew that there was a shelter there, so he fled there. They had nothing to ask for but to survive.
"
"Portal? Do I mean that there is a portal to the east of that villa?" Gavin suddenly realized that if that was not the case, no wonder Gowther's mother dared to buy that building.
After all, the portal is a dead thing, so if you don't take the initiative to go in, there will be no danger.
Even if it leads to an unknown place, for fear of danger coming, it is much easier to restrict a portal than to build one.
If the exploration is successful, the value of a portal will be immeasurable.
"No." Dakar affirmed, "That portal does not appear often, and every time it appears, it is in the form of fog."
Abnormal people are naturally not stingy when it comes to receiving their own information.
"It's just a matter of words to let us leave, but where are we going to go after we leave here?" Gavin asked.
"He doesn't know, they can just take it one step at a time," Dakar said with a look of confusion and grief. "Ordinary people simply can't accept their terrifying appearance. If they appear in front of them, they will treat them as monsters.
To be continued...
