Because when he was about to degenerate into a fertilized egg, the other party used powerful magical powers to pull him out of that unknown space, and also taught him countless knowledge and experiences, which eventually led him to the path of magic.
He fully fulfilled the duties of a qualified "mentor".
But at the same time, Asta also forced Zuo Si to do many things that went against his personal wishes.
For example, dissecting corpses and living people, or being thrown into remote mazes, tombs and wilderness to participate in dangerous and deadly trials.
Some people even maliciously guide them towards the special profession of creator, which cannot cast spells.
Through these almost cruel methods, Asta forced Zuo Si to abandon many of the habits he had developed in modern society, especially the laziness, weakness and kindness in human nature, and subverted his character and behavior patterns.
The most representative of these are strong utilitarianism and pragmatism.
For a while, Zuo Si was deliberately planning to find an opportunity to kill this "mentor".
But in the end, the matter ended in nothing because of the other party's cautious character.
It's clear that Asta has never really trusted anyone but himself.
He truly took the saying "A mage can only rely on himself" to the end.
After deciding to start transforming into a lich, in order to avoid possible troubles and enemies, he secretly ran to the continent of Faerun alone to complete the entire ceremony.
Even Zuo Si, who was fooled, had to admit that Asta was a true and perfect example of a wizard.
Just like that, the two of them maintained a certain degree of mutual vigilance and entered this building which looked like an ordinary house in the slums on the surface, but in fact the interior had long been into a magic laboratory. They sat together and talked for about an hour.
During this period, Zuo Si told the other party everything that happened after he left the floating city tower, and how he became the chosen one of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease.
Because he knew that there was no point in lying to the great necromancer in front of him.
In return, Asta recounted his experience of coming to Amn and choosing to settle in Askatra.
He even did not hide the fact that he had joined the Emerald Society, a secret organization that was fighting against the Masked Mages Guild's monopoly on arcane power.
Since the moment he decided to come to Faerun, the Great Necromancer had given up the idea of going back and planned to integrate into the magic system of the new world.
Because he understood that this apprentice was no longer the same as before. He was no longer the "little guy" who could be manipulated by him, but a chosen one favored by the gods.
Sufficient sincerity must be shown in order to eliminate the dissatisfaction and resentment that have accumulated between the two in the past and finally reach a cooperation agreement.
Yes!
Asta wants to cooperate with Zuo Si on equal terms, to explore and adapt to this world with gods and a larger magical background.
In fact, he had been secretly observing Zuo Si for several days, and today he finally found an opportunity to contact him without alerting other people or forces.
"So your body has been hiding and carrying viruses and bacteria from your original world? And they have mutated under the influence of magic?
Why did it suddenly break out after a year and a half? Why weren't you infected by the viruses and bacteria of the new world?
This is obviously not common sense.
I think there are other reasons.”
Asta frowned and expressed the doubts in his heart.
As a top necromancer, he had conducted in-depth research on the plague, and even used the plague to kill a large nomadic tribe with a total population of over 100,000.
So it is very clear that the limits of mutation that can occur when things like viruses and bacteria are directly exposed to magical energy.
Zuo Si shrugged helplessly: "You ask me, how would I know.
Everything happened so suddenly and so quickly that at first I didn't even realize it was my fault.
By the time they noticed it, the entire floating city was already littered with corpses, with large numbers of corpses affected by negative energy turning into zombies wandering the streets.
I could only get a slight idea of the situation by dissecting the bodies of dead creatures.
The next step is to confirm whether you are still contagious.”
"What about now? What about the viruses and bacteria in your body?" Asta asked with interest.
“My body is like a furnace right now, being injected by the goddess into it with all the viruses, bacteria and toxic substances in this world.
As long as a little bit of divine power is integrated, it can be transformed into pure energy to kill all living things.
If you want to research this, give up the idea as soon as possible.
Because divine power is not any known kind of magical energy, it is more like something born from the fusion of spirit, will, philosophy, belief and rules.
Even just a tiny bit can produce unparalleled power and destructive force.
Besides, I don't take my own life lightly."
Zuo Si bluntly put an end to the other party's delusion.
On the one hand, it is too dangerous to do so, and there are not many mortals in the entire Faerun who have conducted research in this area, so for safety reasons it is better to slowly use sparks to transform.
On the other hand, he was fed up with being the other party's guinea pig.
But Asta did not give up and continued to try to seduce him, saying, "How do you know it won't work if you don't try? If we can figure out the nature of the power of these gods and what kind of beings they are, we can also become one of the gods."
"Become one of the gods?"
Zuo Si pursed his lips, revealing naked and undisguised contempt.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in becoming a god.
Moreover, you don't even know what God is, so why do you think you have such qualifications and confidence?
Dear mentor, I am no longer the apprentice who allows myself to be manipulated by you, so I hope you can realize this as soon as possible.
Otherwise, I don't mind using a few deaths to wake you up.
By the way, let me remind you that you should never think that becoming a lich will give you true immortality.
In fact, finding the life box is not as difficult as you might think."
"Is this a threat?" Asta's eyes suddenly became dangerous.
Because when they were in the tower of the floating city, no one had ever dared to speak to him in this tone and attitude.
Zuo Si stood up directly and responded with a sneer, "Threat? No, I'm just advising you to give up your original arrogance.
This world is much more dangerous than you think, and there are countless things that can crush you like a bug.
Of course, if you really want to try, I'm always available.
But once the battle begins, it will end with the death of one of us.
Fighting means killing, fighting means dying, and you taught me that."
As the last word fell, the surrounding environment and air suddenly became tense and depressing.
Especially the Grand Necromancer Asta, he never dreamed that the apprentice who once obeyed him so well seemed to have become a different person after just a few months of not seeing him.
He exudes a strong sense of confidence and a chilling aura of danger.
Most importantly, he had no idea about divine power and the chosen people.
In other words, there are few people in the entire continent of Faerun who truly understand it.
After all, the number of voters is very small.
In addition, most of them are priests, and they don't even have the courage and guts to study divine power.
It is estimated that only a few legendary wizard voters of the Goddess of Magic have some understanding of this, not to mention the relevant books and research notes.
Even someone like Elminster, who had studied the power of "Silver Fire" in depth and even temporarily kept the power and priesthood of the dead goddess of magic as the First Chosen One during the turbulent years, would not share his research results with anyone.
Therefore, Asta had no idea what kind of power Zuo Si, as a chosen one, would unleash.
He wasn't even sure if he would be reborn next to the life box after his body was destroyed by divine power.
The two of them confronted each other for about three to five minutes, and the Great Necromancer suddenly laughed, "Hahahaha! This is incredible! The apprentice who showed extraordinary obedience in the high tower of the floating city was indeed the disguise you used to protect yourself when you were weak.
Now the unruly and ruthless Soth is his hidden nature.
You know what? When you said you were going to kill me, the look in your eyes and the momentum were impressive.
Congratulations, my dear apprentice, you can finally graduate.
From now on, I will treat you as an equal to my fellow spellcasters."
"Should I feel honored?" Zuo Si asked with a sneaker.
"No need. I just want you to understand that in this strange world, you and I come from the same place, so we are natural allies. There is no need to make things unpleasant because of some trivial things in the past."
Asta tried to ease the tense atmosphere.
After all, he came to meet Zuo Si at the risk of being exposed not to make an enemy.
Unfortunately, Zuo Si didn't buy it and immediately shook his head meaningfully: "No. It may be strange to you, but it's not the case for me.
I know more about this world than you can imagine.
So whatever you want from me, you have to pay the price.
As for forming an alliance, forget it.
Because people like you who only believe in yourself are not trustworthy at all."
There is no doubt that Zuo Si's almost indifferent attitude made Asta completely lose the last bit of his sense of superiority. He even became a little angry and said with a cold face: "Are you sure you want to treat me this way? You know, I am the only one who knows your true origins."
"So what? Do you think it can be used as a handle?
Don't be silly! My dear mentor.
There are so many travelers from other dimensions in the continent of Faerun that it is hard to count them.
Elves, orcs, mind flayers, beholders, demons, devils, djinn, rakshasa, elementals, celestials, githyanki, dragons...
Even the God of Knowledge, the God of Justice, the Elf Pantheon, the Orc Pantheon, and the Human Mulan Pantheon all come from other worlds."
Zuo Si opened his arms and taunted the necromancer.
Because he knew very well that under the rules of Faerun's magic network, the once powerful necromancer who was so intimidating could no longer cast all the magic he knew as he did before.
Instead, one must abide by the rules of this world, convert mana into spell slots by contacting the magic network, and then memorize and use them.
If Zuo Si strengthened his power as a planeswalker in this process, then Asta was hit hard by a blow, and both his spellcasting ability and the number of spells he mastered were greatly weakened.
Especially some super-nine-ring spells, they must be re-studied and converted into "legendary magic" form before they can be used.
This process is definitely not something that can be completed in a few months.
Even for a lich that doesn't need sleep or rest, it would take at least six months to three to five years.
In addition, various super magic skills such as "instant spell casting", "delayed spell casting", "silent spell casting", "powerful spell casting" and "extreme spell casting" also require time and energy to learn.
So far, Zuo Si himself has only learned one spell, "spell delay".
Therefore, he was confident that in a head-on battle, with the number of cards he had, he could defeat and kill his former mentor in one go.
What's more, when fighting in Askatla, Zuo Si has the home advantage, that is, he has a permanent spellcasting license, while Asta does not.
Once the house is destroyed and the magic is exposed outdoors, the masked wizard will immediately appear and join the battle.
At that time, it will no longer be a fair one-on-one contest, but a "just fight" between a group of people and one person.
Asta has lived in this city for a long time, so of course he couldn't be unaware of the rule in the City of Gold that prohibits the casting of arcane magic outdoors, so he quickly suppressed his urge to take action.
With the lich's absolutely cold and rational characteristics, he successfully controlled his emotions and directly revealed his trump card: "Don't you want to know where the special space that makes your body degenerate into a child is?"
"Oh? You knew?"
Zuo Si's expression finally showed a hint of emotion.
Because he had always wanted to figure out where he was inexplicably teleported to when he first ignited the spark.
Based on his current knowledge of the multiverse, planes, and crystal walls, he can almost confirm that it is neither the "astral plane" nor the "etheric plane", nor any other known planes and spaces.
"I'm not sure either. But I found some very interesting residues on the clothes you took off. I believe you will be interested. And the viruses and bacteria that suddenly mutated in your body may be closely related to this mysterious substance."
As he spoke, Asta took out a sealed crystal bottle as thick as a finger from his laboratory bench.
On the inner wall of time, one can vaguely see a little gray smoke and a small number of tiny particles emitting dark purple light.
"Is this the remnant you collected from my clothes?"
Zuo Si deliberately pretended to be uncertain.
He has discovered that the remaining gray smoke is the "culprit" that caused his body and age to become smaller.
Asta replied with a half-smile: "Yes! I call it the Chaos Factor.
Because these residues can cause irregular and unpredictable random mutations in anything they touch, whether it is a person or an object.
To be honest, it's a miracle that you survived.
I once ordered a slave to inhale a little bit of gas, and his body expanded rapidly in less than a few minutes, turning into a behemoth of several dozen meters.
Not only did its size increase, but its race also underwent a fundamental change, becoming like a wild beast without any intelligence.
Its powerful regenerative ability can restore a destroyed heart or shattered head to its original state.
It took me a lot of effort to kill it.
Of course, this was just one of dozens of experiments.
In addition, some experimental subjects turned into metals, plants, rocks, burning flames, or even suddenly aged and died.
The most interesting one even showed a strange scene where the soul was separated from the body but still alive.
Unfortunately, the amount of these residues is too small to conduct too many experiments.
What you are seeing now is the last remaining copy.”
"What do I need to pay if I want to get it?" Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively.
There is no doubt that this remnant is of extraordinary significance to him, and it is also the only clue that can solve the doubts in his heart.
"I want the magical knowledge of this world, all the information about the magic network, and all the spells you currently master. In addition to that, you must also provide a list of powerful spellcasters in this world that need extra attention, including their detailed information."
Asta opened his mouth directly and exaggerates.
Zuo Si immediately rejected these requests without hesitation: "You are dreaming! I will never agree to such a completely unequal transaction."
"So you don't want what's in this bottle?" Asta threatened with a chuckle.
"Of course I want it. But the problem is, you overestimate how important this thing is to me. And... I now have a better idea, which is to just rob it."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Zuo Si suddenly activated a scroll hidden in his wide sleeves.
moment!
Asta was hit by the [Dimension Anchor] and was completely unable to use any means of teleportation.
The next second...
Zuo Si directly activated the four [Advanced Strike Against Undead] cards and four [Scorching Glory (a three-ring divine spell that gathers sacred energy like the sun to burn the target, with higher additional damage to undead creatures)] that were tightly held in his other hand.
Before the Grand Necromancer could react, he was surrounded by dazzling positive energy rays, instantly causing shocking damage to the lich's body filled with negative energy.
You should know that for all spells made into cards, the damage limit is directly linked to the level of the mage, not the mage's professional level.
This means that, given that the current level of the Planeswalker is as high as LV7, the power of any damaging spell will increase exponentially.
Although the [Accidental Technique] was immediately triggered on the latter, a layer of silver reflective energy sphere immediately enveloped Asta.
It's a pity that this fourth-level protective magic [Secondary Spell Invalidation Barrier] that can block first to third-level spell attacks takes effect too slowly.
Through the magic barrier, one can clearly see that the necromancer's lich body has been severely damaged.
Some people's skin and muscles, which originally looked no different from those of normal people, suffered large areas of ulceration, and even the bones inside were broken.
Especially the face, one of the eyeballs in the eye socket was completely blown out, and the other one was connected to the optic nerve and drooped to the side of the nose, looking extremely hideous and terrifying.
Without a doubt!
With just one strike, Zuo Si almost killed this powerful necromancer whom he had only looked up to.
In just a few seconds, his entire body was flashing with arcane light that could blind a person's eyes.
Zuo Si did not have the slightest intention of stopping him. Instead, he stood there and let the other party finish all the protection. Then he said expressionlessly, "Last chance. Give me what you have in your hand. Otherwise, I will kill you, then find your life box and destroy it. Don't forget, I am the chosen one of the goddess of poison and disease. I can get the information and clues I need by asking the goddess directly."
"Damn it! What spell did you use just now? Why didn't the [Accident Spell] I set up have time to react?" Asta asked gritting his teeth.
As a newly born lich, it was the first time for him to experience being attacked by a positive energy spell that restrained undead creatures.
The pain that could not be described in words immediately awakened the fear of death deep in my heart.
"【Advanced Undead Strike】 and 【Scorching Glory】, two insignificant three-ring magics. How do you feel? Do you feel that you are only one step away from death?" Zuo Si's mouth curled up slightly.
To be honest, he was a little surprised that Asta could withstand the damage of four [Advanced Strike Undead] and [Scorching Glory] cards.
Because under normal circumstances, most liches would probably have their bones turned into ashes after being hit by this.
But the opponent was only seriously injured and dying, and he still had a breath left.
Most likely some powerful magical item offset some of the damage.
Of course, this has no impact on the final result.
Next, Zuo Si only needs one [Ring of the Ram] to take it away directly.
"I see! You have mastered magic that specifically targets undead creatures, so you dare to claim that you can kill me."
Asta's tone was filled with strong vigilance and fear.
More importantly, Zuo Si's growth rate far exceeded the limits of what he could have imagined.
Moreover, he had no idea what kind of cards this former apprentice in front of him held.
"You taught me that a prepared mage is unbeatable.
You may not believe it, but I have prepared quite a lot of methods to deal with another lich these days.
Who would have thought that it would be used on you, my mentor, today.
I have to say, this is really fate.
Now please make your choice.
Either I hand over what originally belonged to me, or I die here today and take a chance on whether I can find the phylactery before you complete your resurrection."
Zuo Si issued the ultimatum with a smile.
It was not difficult to tell from his eyes and expression that he was very much enjoying the feeling of forcing the once high and mighty Great Necromancer into a dead end.
Because the other party forced him to do the same in the beginning.
"How can I believe that you won't suddenly turn against me after you get the things?" Asta asked, holding the bottle tightly in his hand.
Zuo Si spread his hands and replied, "You have no choice.
Do you remember what you said when you first threw me into an ancient tomb and left me alone to find the exit in a maze full of mechanisms, traps, and undead creatures?
You said that the strong dominate the weak is the eternal truth of this world.
If you don't want to be dominated, then become stronger than you, and then I can dominate you in return."
Asta froze for a moment and said in an incredulous tone: "So you are now taking revenge on me for what I did to you?"
“Don’t get me wrong, this is not revenge.
To be honest, I am actually very grateful to you for forcing me to become increasingly cold and ruthless.
Otherwise, I would hardly be alive today.
So this is not revenge against you, but a way of thanking you.
Let you know how excellent I have become now, just as you expected.
Didn't you always say that you hoped that an apprentice could kill you? I am just fulfilling your wish..."
As he said this, the offering ring on Zuo Si's hand suddenly lit up.
Seeing that Zuo Si was about to continue, Asta immediately threw the bottle in his hand away, then turned around and ran towards the secret door at the back of the room for escape.
Since he couldn't cast any teleportation magic, he directly activated the power of the pair of [Speed Boots] on his feet, and he was as fast as a world champion in the 100-meter sprint.
But unfortunately, the moment he touched the switch of the secret door, a sheep's head made of energy slammed into him from behind.
Bang! The necromancer immediately felt as if his body was hit by a battering ram, and his feet instantly left the ground and hit the wall in front of him.
Although he was blessed with many magics to protect against energy and physical damage, he did not have any force field protection spells.
The result was that his cervical vertebrae and skull were broken on the spot by the Ring of the Ram.
The blood and brain matter that had not yet rotted and dried suddenly splattered everywhere, completely staining the walls and the ground red.
As for Zuo Si on the other side, he easily released a zero-ring [Hand of the Mage] and steadily caught the bottle that Asta deliberately threw behind him.
After doing all this, he casually commented: "My dear mentor, you have indeed become weaker after coming to this world.
There are no more high-level spells that can be cast at will;
Without those carefully crafted powerful undead creatures and constructs;
The super magic skills that he was so proud of were gone; even the wizard tower was replaced by this simple magic laboratory.
Most importantly, you are still so greedy and want to exploit me like before.
In that case, let me take you on your way.
After all, being killed by one's best apprentice is the highest honor for a mentor."
After saying this, Zuo Si took out the little devil's card again and paid mana to summon it.
In the blink of an eye, this evil little creature appeared again.
However, unlike the last "Zuan" greeting, it looked much more honest and knelt on the ground in a very humble posture.
"I need your divine power!" Zuo Si made the request bluntly.
"As you wish, my great, evil, cold, cruel and merciless master."
The little devil hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly began to chant spells and perform complicated casting movements.
Not long after, its pupils began to dilate, showing the same empty and lifeless look as last time.
"Is the lich Asta's phylactery in this house?"
Zuo Si, who had once used the [divine power], asked the question directly.
"yes!"
The little devil immediately gave an affirmative answer.
"It's just as I expected."
Zuo Si couldn't help but reveal a playful expression.
Because Asta has the habit of not trusting anyone, he will only hide the life box where he can see it and protect it in time.
In addition, since he had just arrived, there were very few positions he could choose from.
If nothing unexpected happens, he should be hiding in his own residence.
After receiving this important information, Zuo Si immediately divided the transformed magic laboratory into several areas, and then used [Thera-communication] to eliminate them one by one.
Eventually he managed to narrow it down to the attic on the top floor.
Along with a second-level spell [Detect Secret Door], two third-level spells [Locate Object] and [See Invisibility] were successfully released.
Zuo Si took down a transparent sealed box from the air above his head where there seemed to be nothing in it with almost no effort.
Obviously, in order to better hide the life box, Asta not only cast [Invisibility] on the box, but also placed it in a visual blind spot that is very easy to be overlooked.
However, Zuo Si did not choose to open the box himself. Instead, he used a [Knocking Spell] to fix the magic lock, and then ordered the little devil following behind him: "Go, open it."
Hearing this, the little devil immediately jumped up from the ground and screamed loudly: "Master! I didn't make any mistakes this time! You can't let me die! That damn box, it's obvious that there is a powerful magic trap set."
It's easy to tell that this guy just secretly released a [Detection Magic] and was able to see the dazzling arcane light on the box.
"Relax, you're not really going to die." Zuo Si comforted with a malicious smile.
"No! No! No! I don't want to experience that terrible feeling again. You should summon a skeleton or something to do this dangerous job. After all, I am more useful than them."
The little devil shook his head desperately and looked pitiful.
Ever since it realized its current situation, it no longer had the slightest thought of resisting, just like when it faced those powerful high-level demons.
The character of bullying the weak and fearing the strong has long been deeply engraved in the bones of this evil creature.
"In that case, I'll give you one chance. Remember, if you dare to play any tricks again, or pretend to obey but actually disobey, I promise to throw you into a jar filled with liquid silver and suffocate you to death."
After saying that, Zuo Si quickly completed a part of the "Book of the Dead" [Summoning the Undead].
Suddenly, a summoning circle appeared out of thin air on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a human skeleton warrior holding a sharp blade walked out.
Since it was a low-level undead with no intelligence, it immediately walked towards the box under the command of the summoner and opened the lid of the box with an axe.
moment!
A powerful energy ray flew out directly from the box and hit the skeleton warrior's body.
The latter couldn't even hold on for a second before his entire body turned into a pool of powder.
Sixth-ring magic [Dissociation]! Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
You know, setting this advanced magic to trigger a trap is not an easy task.
It seems that Asta has really invested a lot of money in protecting his life box.
Furthermore, anyone unlucky enough to be hit by [Disintegration], whether it is himself or his equipment, will be completely decomposed into powder in an instant.
Its astonishing lethality and destructive power, especially the psychological impact it causes, is in no way inferior to the Nine Rings [Great Decomposition] which is known as "making both the enemy and us cry".
At the same time, the little devil on the side was so scared that he trembled after seeing the fate of the skeleton warrior.
If it hadn't been trying so hard to act pitiful just now, it would have been turned into powder now.
Just as this evil little thing was secretly rejoicing, Zuo Si summoned a second skeleton warrior again to open the box and took out the life box inside that was emitting dazzling arcane light.
As expected, the moment the life box was taken out, the box instantly burst out with astonishing negative energy.
If the undead creatures were not immune to negative energy, this blow would at least be able to kill or severely injure a giant with strong vitality like a giant.
After successfully obtaining Asta's life box, Zuo Si did not even hesitate and immediately took out a magic adamantium hammer that was powerful enough to destroy it. He then summoned an ogre and ordered him to use the hammer to hit the life box hard.
After a few hits, this little gadget, which was as hard as refined gold, was finally smashed into pieces.
Yes!
The lich's life box is actually not as easy to destroy as others imagine.
Especially in the absence of high-level spellcasters, not only a warrior with immense strength is needed, but also a magic weapon with a hardness comparable to that of refined gold.
For most adventurers, this is a treasure that is hard to come by.
Finally, accompanied by a shrill scream of soul collapse, Asta finally disappeared from this world completely.
The astonishing magical energy bursting out from the life box was all absorbed without exception.
Zuo Si, who had accomplished the feat of “killing his master” himself, looked at the broken life box in his hand and said with a slightly emotional tone: “Farewell, dear mentor.
In fact, it was a mistake for you to step through the portal and come to this world, a huge mistake.
The magic network not only weakens and limits your power, but also makes you extremely uncomfortable with the new way of casting spells.
If it was in the floating city tower, I would be the loser."
Without a doubt!
The reason why Zuo Si was able to successfully kill his teacher was mainly due to the planeswalker's card system, which enabled him to launch a sudden sneak attack without any warning.
It is estimated that Asta never figured out to the end how he could instantly release a large amount of [Advanced Undead Strikes] and [Scorching Glory] with astonishing lethality against undead creatures without chanting any spells or performing any spellcasting.
They might even mistake it for a special ability bestowed by God on the chosen people.
As for making the Archnecromancer into a biological card like the Dragon Lich, it is impossible to do so with Zuo Si's current level of planeswalker.
What's more, Asta has the dignity and pride of a wizard and will never become a puppet controlled by others just to survive.
In fact, it is very, very difficult to force a creature with a strong rebellious spirit and will into a card.
Especially since high-level undead like liches are not susceptible to mind control, and low-level necromancy magic has very limited effect on them, destroying the life box naturally becomes the only option.
After recovering some of the materials from the broken life box, Zuo Si began to search the house for everything of value.
Especially the magic robe, staff, ring, amulet, belt, boots of speed on Asta's body, and the [Scroll of Commanding the Undead] in the scroll box...
You have to know that what he has on him are all high-end stuff, many of which are things Zuo Si has been coveting for a long time.
In addition, the notes and books on the bookshelves and the treasures in the basement were also swept away.
Only those experimental instruments that could not be moved away temporarily were left behind.
Among these notes and books, Zuo Si surprisingly found a spell book made by Asta himself. There were only less than forty magic spells on it, and the highest one was only seven rings.
Needless to say, this once extremely powerful necromancer did not have enough time to convert and copy down all the spells he mastered. He only converted a small part of them.
If he is given another one or two years, it is still unclear who will win.
"Master, what are you going to do with this house?" the little devil asked cautiously.
Zuo Si stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then immediately replied, "Well - just leave it here and don't move it.
Asta had said that he had joined a secret organization of spellcasters called the Emerald Cabal, and I was mildly intrigued by that.
In addition, this magic laboratory is located in the slums, which is also a good base and may come in handy in the future.
By the way, you and the ogre should stay here and guard the place, and don't let those thieves get close."
"Understood! I swear I will never let those damn thieves steal anything." The little devil promised solemnly.
"Remember not to let the residents around you discover you. After all, in Amn, ogres and demons are not protected by the law. Once exposed, guards, masked wizards, and paladins of the Burning Heart Knights will soon come to your door."
Zuo Si issued a warning in a very serious tone.
"Please rest assured, I will use invisibility to hide when necessary, and I will never be discovered. As for that big fool, it is better to let him hide in the basement."
The little devil glanced at the ogre with great contempt.
However, the latter's intelligence was too low and he didn't realize that the other party was scolding him.
After arranging everything, Zuo Si used magic to communicate and asked Davidian and Huntington, who stayed in the house, to be responsible for transporting the spoils.
As for himself, he returned the same way and continued to stay in the Bronze Crown Inn to gather information.
After this successful experience of an unsportsmanlike sneak attack, Zuo Si suddenly realized that the lich was not as difficult to deal with as he had imagined.
As long as you are fast enough and release enough lethal spell cards in one breath before the opponent can react, you can successfully "kill" him instantly.
It doesn't give the opponent any chance to activate protective spells or use magic items.
The only problem is that Zuo Si must ensure that he takes the initiative.
Otherwise, once the [Spell Invalidation Barrier] is put on, he may not have any good solution with his current spellcasting level.
In addition, items like [Ring of the Ram] that provide pure force field damage are much more effective than expected in battles between spellcasters.
If used well, it can completely interrupt the opponent's most critical spellcasting, or even push them further away, and then bombard them directly with fireballs.
