Chapter 565: Handbook of the Dead
Half an hour later, Gervis gently stroked the space ring with his fingers and left the Potion Garden with a satisfied smile on his face.
The appearance of the potion garden had also changed at this time. The muddy ground that was originally full of thriving potion plants had become bare.
There were only a few sparsely grown potion plant seedlings on top of it, looking lonely and helpless.
The same is true for the tall medicinal fruit tree on the other side.
All the ripe fruits have been picked, and only some small fruits that have not yet grown are still hanging on the branches, swaying in the wind.
These remaining seedlings and fruits were left intentionally by Gervis for the sake of sustainable development. He is a civilized time traveler who understands ecology.
…
Next, Gervis began to rush along the passage towards the core area of the palace.
He had already tasted the sweetness in the potion warehouse and was fantasizing about finding some more treasures to enrich his fortune.
Soon Gervis arrived in front of a group of buildings. He identified a building and pushed the door open and walked in.
"Why is there nothing?"
A few minutes later, Gervis, who had been smiling, still had a look of praise on his face.
Ideals are full of hope, but reality is often skinny. Gervis didn't get anything out of this house.
Next, Gervis, unwilling to give up, began searching along the passage again.
Unfortunately, Gervis entered three buildings in a row to search but did not see anything good.
Although he didn't encounter any strange dark creatures during the search, not finding any treasure made Gervis more upset than encountering a monster.
"Fuck, this is the feeling of gap!"
Gervis walked out of a room again looking lost.
This magician's palace is not the king's palace. Apart from his good luck in getting a big bargain just now, Gervis didn't even see the most common gold decorations in the houses behind. He felt a huge gap and felt a little unbalanced.
"How about spending ten energy points to give it a try?"
At this time, Gervis's location was close to the Magician's Tower, which should be considered the core area.
However, because he came from the outer circle, he has not encountered any other figures yet.
He felt that if he didn't find some treasures quickly, it would be very difficult for him to gain any benefits when other people arrived.
Moreover, he lacked knowledge of various things in the Holy Continent. If something was not obviously valuable and could not be seen at a glance, he might miss it even if it was placed in front of him.
Thinking of this, Gervis no longer hesitated and directly opened his system panel.
"Exploration function, start!"
As the system panel deducted another 10 energy points from Gervis, Gervis saw the red dot begin to flash on the radar!
"This is to the left, treasure! Here I come!"
After seeing the position of the red dot and determining the direction, Gvis immediately moved. This was a treasure that he had spent 10 energy points on, and he couldn't let anyone get there first.
Next, Gervis ran quickly in the palace.
There are obviously more skeleton soldiers in this core area, and most of them are green, and occasionally one or two red skeletons can be seen.
Gervis ignored them and simply waved the Crimson Moon to push down the skeleton soldiers blocking his way, then passed through quickly.
When the skeletons saw Gervis fleeing quickly, they followed in the direction he left.
"Huh? Someone's here!"
Just as Gervis was getting closer and closer to the red dot, he suddenly saw a figure appear in front of him.
Gervis immediately stopped and looked at the figures carefully.
"Deville? You bastard, I finally met you!"
There were more than twenty people in front of Gervis, but Gervis only knew one of them, that was Deville.
Although it was because of the scumbag Deville that Gervis was able to turn a disaster into a blessing and get so many benefits by going to the Potion Garden.
However, this did not stop Gervis from wanting to kill him.
If Gervis was really just an apprentice magician at that time, and if there was no Crimson Moon, he would have been killed by Deweir and torn to pieces in the pile of skeletons.
At this time, Dewell and his companions in front were walking towards a magnificent building, and each of them looked excited.
"What a coincidence! My red dot should be in that room too!"
Gervis looked at his red dot and found that he was actually inside that large building.
So, Gervis immediately took a step and ran towards the building in front.
Gervis naturally would not enter through the main entrance, but went around to the side of the building.
After reaching the side, Gervis looked at the windowsill which was more than three meters high, and then jumped up with an easy leap.
After reaching the window, Gervis gently pushed open half of the window, and the situation inside was immediately visible.
This should be a library hall. At this moment, Deweil and his group are fighting with several dark creatures.
Gervis didn't recognize those dark creatures.
One of them was a ferocious demon dog, with a head as big as a tiger's and a body stronger than a wild bull. Fireballs shot out of its mouth one after another, causing Dewell and his group to panic.
In addition, there were three dark creatures that looked like ghouls. Gervis didn't know their real names, but they looked quite similar to ghouls, so he counted them as ghouls.
Soon, Gervis finally found Deville on the outskirts of the battle circle.
"Senior Valad, this is the library of the Magician's Tower. We are rich!"
At this time, Deweir did not participate in the battle, but stayed beside the intermediate magician Valad. Looking at the densely packed bookshelves around him, Deweir spoke to Valad excitedly.
"Haha, Junior Brother Deweir, although there are many out-of-print books among these books, they are not particularly precious. The truly precious ones may be in the study upstairs!"
Because his teacher is the vice president of the Magicians Association, Valad is very caring towards Deville. He casts magic at the magic dog in front from time to time, and answers Deville with a smile on his face when he is free.
"Could it be a method to nourish the heart of the dead?"
Deville knew about the Heart of the Dead when he teamed up with Adela and Laci, but he thought it was just a rumor. How could such a heaven-defying thing exist?
Now hearing what Valad said, he thought that this was what Valad was talking about.
"I'm not sure about the Heart of the Dead, but the Wizard Nahum's Handbook of the Dead is probably on it!"
"Handbook of the Dead? Is it still in this magician's tower?"
Although Valad wasn't talking about the Heart of the Dead.
But when Deweir heard about the Manual of the Dead, he was still shocked.
Nehum's Manual of the Undead, a book that records all his improved undead magic, has disappeared without a trace since the death of the wizard Nehum.
