Volume 7: War and Peace in an Abandoned Town Chapter 9: No Man's Town
This isolated building has the characteristics of all isolated buildings in the Middle Ages.
It was solid and huge, and it looked like there was a basement wine cellar underneath, and even some messy things like city defense facilities piled up against the walls of the house. The scattered sparks and the still burning fireplace seemed as if someone had just left the room.
But Li Lin found that the burning fireplace was caused by some talismans, and there were only some messy sketches and smears in the basement. For safety reasons, Li Lin did not analyze the remaining traces too carefully. After all, a random mark written in it could burn 250 mana points, and he didn't want to die. The only weapon in the whole room was a pickle stone placed in several jars in the attic, and the rest was Li Lin's walking stick.
This black cane has a surprising quality. At least when Li Lin poked the fireplace with it, he didn't feel it was brittle or swollen. The holes etched on it seemed that there should be some offensive things, but Li Lin limped around the whole room and didn't see anything that could take advantage of this long cane.
However, what is surprising is that even though there has been no living person in this wooden house for at least three years, the water in the basin and everything around it have not changed much, as if the residents here had just left.
"But... it really hurts to lose my magic power..."
Looking at the scene reflected on the water, Li Lin tried to summon his white knight.
Then he saw a string of brilliant holy light appearing around him, and the vast hymn almost solidified. However, before the White Knight stepped out of the light gate, the surrounding hymns could not support the power and quickly dissipated, turning into debris on the ground.
The White Knight's summoning naturally failed, and Li Lin's magic power also hit the bottom. If it was unrefined magic power, it would be like slow-burning coal, and refined magic power would be like explosives. Both release the same amount of heat, but the output progress is completely different. If it takes 10 points of unrefined magic power to summon the White Knight, then 100 points of refined magic power are needed.
Although the weight looks the same, the inner meaning is completely different. In other words, Li Lin can't even fart now. He has the shell of a top assistant teacher close to a lecturer, but if he really fights, he probably can't even beat him in the Ryosaka period.
“…”
Who said that you become stronger after tempering? Bullshit!
Feeling the magic power in his body that was no different from that of a piece of iron, Li Lin's heart was filled with anger that could no longer be described.
What does it mean to have only 50 points of magic power? Because this is not even as good as the most basic magic awakening period. However, there is another problem here. That is, refining magic power is to compress density rather than reduce mass. So, if the original 300 points of magic power are now only 50 points, and after the refinement is ten times more precise, how much of the remaining magic power can be used relative to the previous magic power?
The answer is five points of magic. Because the magic power was compressed as a whole, the magic power contained in a frame suddenly increased tenfold. He originally needed ten points of magic to activate the Apocalypse Knight form. In other words, he couldn't even summon the Apocalypse Knight now.
And then add this blind, lame, and only has a crutch left, you tell me this is called evolution? Bullshit! Give me back the 300 mana, whoever wants it can take it, okay? And the matter of tempering mana is a matter of a hundred thousand ways to toss you around in the university. White Knight is the top profession in the magic awakening period, which means that his collocation is relatively the most reasonable, and the density is also the most reasonable. It is the right way for each class to use what it should use, this is a game.
You play a game and you cut off the basic skills of a low-level player and leave only a bunch of ultimate skills. Do you think the player will be happy or angry? There is not enough mana bar to fight. Summoning a sword is powerful, but even the last five points of mana are drained, okay? How can you show off with this? How can you call yourself a big boss? If you don’t have hundreds of little brothers, you are a big boss.
"It's so painful to have no magic power..."
Looking at the figure in the mirror wearing a gray robe (due to insufficient magic power, he drew some magic power and dyed it), with a messy hair (caused by falling), one eye completely crystallized (magic solidified), lame and with a miserable face, Li Lin really didn't know what to do.
Could it be that he has to use his old skills here? I haven't fooled people for many years. I'm afraid his hands are too shabby to be seen by others.
Li Lin staggered outside with a cane, squinting at the path that looked very clean, and limped down along the path. He looked like a homeless person who had come from a far distance to beg for food. People didn't even want to look at him, and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Li Lin had already made up his mind. He would sneak into the town with his appearance. No one would care about a beggar from afar. Of course, if the Kingdom of God was completely closed, he would just kill himself and find a few tasks to level up and start over. But in theory, the chance of this happening was very small, because the Kingdom of God was the Kingdom of God after all. It was a kingdom of God. And especially these old gods, they showed fear and despair, so this kind of homeless person must be a very common figure.
Then use this identity to sneak into the corner of the tavern or the street, and judge the basic living standards and related information here by listening. After getting familiar with them, you can join the tavern as a bartender, waiter, or doorman. In short, after obtaining a basic living identity, it will be easy to carry out activities next.
Using this identity as a bartender, he can get in touch with all kinds of people, get news about the Kingdom of God through clever language skills and various hints, and then eventually find the core of the entire godhead, reveal his identity, accept assimilation into the Kingdom of God, and finally summon holy light to blow the hell up.
This script is so well written, it's perfect and has no loopholes.
But when he finally saw the town, Li Lin felt that all his plans were completely useless.
"…Where are the people?"
Looking at the small town with only faint smoke from cooking fires but empty streets and alleys, Li Lin raised his eyebrows in surprise.
In front of him, the small village, which was obviously in the style of a European country town, was filled with elegance and tranquility, but there was no human voice responding in it. It was as if this picturesque town was full of dead people.
A chill instantly cleared Li Lin's brain and he squinted his eyes subconsciously.
