It turned out that there was a group of people sitting a few tables away. Among this group of people, there were several familiar faces. They were the members of the organization Sons of Ramis. Mingxi, Duize, and Zhou Qian were all there. Because Du Yuqi had changed his clothes this time, they could not be sure of his identity from a distance, so they had to keep looking around. When they saw Du Yuqi coming over, the three of them immediately stood up to greet him.

In fact, Du Yuqi had not spent a long time with them, but they had experienced so much. It could be said that they had been through thick and thin together. The relationship built in an environment of blood and fire was the most solid. After a few pleasantries, the topic naturally shifted to the brutal battle in Loran, and everyone was particularly sighing.

When Du Yuqi talked about how Instructor Golas died heroically in order to protect him, the little girl Mingxi lay down on the table and sobbed. Duize raised his glass in silence, nodded to Du Yuqi, and the two drank the liquor in the glass.

It was only then that Du Yuqi learned what happened later. It turned out that not long after he and Instructor Golas attracted the attention of the clown Moriarty, a strong wind suddenly blew away the white mist covering the battlefield. Taking this opportunity, the group of people led by the Son of Ramis fled. Those rat-headed assassins were already tired soldiers, and they must have been through a hard battle underground, so they probably ran out of energy and did not pursue them. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for them to escape.

Du Yuqi immediately thought of one thing at this moment. The strong wind definitely did not appear for no reason, but was related to the giant steel fortress that appeared in the air. Such a huge floating fortress must have made a lot of noise when it was close to the ground.

He immediately asked the others if they had seen this thing, but the others were all very confused. Duize told Du Yuqi that he did hear a strange buzzing sound in the air, and he also paid attention to the sky, but he only saw a large group of dark clouds close to the mountain ridge.

However, Du Yuqi also got a crucial clue from the Son of Ramis. The rat-headed people were not normal creatures. They were originally normal humans, but became deformed after being infected with a strange disease/curse/virus. Therefore, they usually only appear in the Northmar area. If we follow this clue, we may get something.

After chatting for a while, Du Yuqi began to feel hungry and started to taste the delicacies in the Moonlight Tavern. It must be said that the limited supply elf beer and grilled octopus balls were indeed very delicious. There was an indescribable fragrance in the elf beer, which made the beer particularly mellow, and the spices used in the grilled octopus balls were also unique, cleverly producing complementary properties, which preserved the elasticity and smoothness of the octopus meat and made it even more chewy.

Because when Du Yuqi arrived at the Moonlight Tavern, the Sons of Ramis had almost finished their meal. They were also heading to the branch in Huttonmar. It was said that they were preparing to complete the task assigned by the organization. They were in a hurry, so they took the initiative to say goodbye to Du Yuqi.

During this meeting, Du Yuqi felt that Duize seemed to have encountered something. He was usually cheerful and didn't say much. He just drank silently with bloodshot eyes. But if he wanted to ask, it would seem like he was being too polite.

Just when he was trying to figure out the truth, Mingxi unexpectedly brought up a topic that Du Yuqi was very interested in. It turned out that before she left, she said with regret that it was a pity that her ability was insufficient, otherwise she could try to make a sacrifice mark for Du Yuqi at this time, so that the next time she sacrificed, she could specify the marked object to summon.

This topic immediately attracted Du Yuqi's attention. He was also moved and hurriedly asked about the relevant details.

Only then did he realize that the ritual of sacrificial summoning was quite popular on the Arad continent, and the threshold was not high. Almost everyone who had awakened their spiritual power could become a believer of the God of Contract and perform the ritual of sacrificial summoning. In fact, this thing can also be described in four words, that is, easy to learn but difficult to master. It is very simple to get started, but if you want to study it further, you will be subject to many restrictions.

The original sacrificial summons of ordinary professionals were limited to pet summons, reaching a symbiotic agreement with some creatures from other dimensions to assist in combat and strengthen themselves. Its creator was a mysterious woman named Grandma Oran.

In the early days of her business, no matter how familiar she was with you, Grandma Orlan would always tell you the following catchphrase:

"Why don't you have a pet yet?"

Therefore, they were initially regarded as having mental problems.

When Grandma Orlan first appeared, she was just setting up a small stall on the roadside, selling some mutant creatures that could be contracted, and it could be said that there were few customers.

However, people soon discovered that the creatures she sold were indeed quite good. They could provide very good assistance to their owners in battle, just like hunting dogs trained by hunters. Initially, they were ferocious creatures such as ice tigers and forest wolves that originated from Arad.

Later, as the summoning and sacrifice technique pioneered by Grandma Orlan matured, her store even began to sell pet eggs of extra-dimensional creatures such as Portis, Mabas, Yami, and Billies, which increased their strength even more. Therefore, the related stores she opened were once crowded with people, and it even triggered a great trend of sacrificial summoning.

It is precisely because of this that even after Grandma Orlan passed away (some say she mysteriously disappeared), there were still many people who followed the path she had opened up, constantly making the sacrificial summoning technique mature and perfect, adding bricks and tiles, and thus gradually formed a situation where sacrificial summoning was very common at that time.

However, the sacrificial summons that most people know are often very limited, which is usually reflected in the quantity. The most typical example is Xin Jing's sacrificial summoning of Du Yuqi. Only he can be summoned, and then this skill is locked and enters the CD period.

The reason why the earthen jar can summon so many people at once is that his family has accumulated hundreds of years of experience in this area, and the sacrificial summoning is very easy, and the cooperation contract signed with the summoned creatures is also an equal one.

And only the magician's advanced profession, the summoner, is an expert in this field!
