Chapter 283: Cutting-Edge Intelligence of the Underground Cemetery
After making significant contributions, Tammy was promoted to a full-time employee.
He became the first intern to be converted to a full-time employee in the Skyrim Strategy Group, which is truly cause for celebration.
Such an outstanding talent, whose luck value can be said to be very high, Luluwo will not let him go.
The celebration banquet in Bede City lasted for a long time that day, and the crowd gradually dispersed until dawn the next day.
The victory of Luluwo and his group brought honor to the adventurers, and the information was directly made public for the sake of the competition. This was undoubtedly a good thing, so people were willing to come and support them, it was that simple.
After the banquet, many people invited them to a second and third drinking party. But without exception, they were all rejected. Luluwo was very tired and planned to rest for a few days before making any decision.
But before she could have a good rest for a few days, an invitation from Count Charon came to her door.
"What is the Count planning to do?"
After I got there, I found that Charon was very excited. He claimed that the active performance of the Skyrim Strategy Group had helped him leverage the sales of the Bed family's industries in the royal city. Even though the effect is not very obvious now, it will definitely become more and more obvious in the future.
So Count Charon gave them another wave of gold coins.
Before leaving, Charon suddenly said:
"People in the Royal City may look down on other cities, but the talent you have shown is worthy of their attention and they have chosen to forget their origins. They are very smart, and perhaps someone will want to contact you to reach a cooperation in the next few days. As a partner, I have to remind you."
"Don't fall into any traps. The forces in the royal city are complicated. I am just a small fry there. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to help you much."
In response, Luluwo gave him a "yeah" sign.
I don't know if this guy actually listened to me.
At the same time, Tammy was checking the internal information of the Skyrim Strategy Group. The information recorded therein was far more detailed than that in newspapers, and these were what would really be used for strategy making.
"It turns out that after getting separated that day, the captain and his team made rapid progress in their exploration."
Two or three weeks have passed since the opening of the Catacombs of Casas, and its general layout has been almost figured out, which took longer than the time it took to capture the Fran Fortress.
This is probably because the strength and density of monsters and traps have been improved, but the Eagle City Dungeon is not open 24 hours a day like Val, so the concept of setting up the Casas Underground Cemetery is "one road can be played for a whole day."
At present, adventurers have discovered three main exploration paths, and these three paths lead to the same destination, and they will all eventually lead to an area shrouded in darkness - referred to as the Black Zone - so things like torches must be prepared in sufficient quantities.
The actual area of the Black Zone is actually quite large, and Tammy and Elsa were lucky to get out so quickly that day and encounter the Conquest Knights.
If you explore it carefully, the difficulty of the black zone is equivalent to the sum of the above levels. However, as the difficulty increases, the rewards and information that can be mined also increase.
"At present, the Casas Underground Cemetery can stably produce various levels of forging stones and gems of various attributes. Finally, there is an area where forging stones can be obtained in batches. In the past, if you wanted to get forging stones, you had to rely on luck."
In addition to forging stones, the output of some miscellaneous items is also increasing, such as small pills that can increase resistance to cursed death.
This design is very strange. In addition to entering the Kasas Underground Cemetery directly from the Eagle City Underground City portal, those people from Bed City have to pass through the Fran Fortress if they want to come in. The place is full of cursed frogs that can kill. No matter how you look at it, the anti-curse pills should be placed in the Fran Fortress!
The above is Luluwo’s complaint.
However, she soon discovered why the anti-death curse pills were placed in the crypt.
Because there are ancient books scattered randomly in the underground cemetery, once you get close to it, transparent ghost hands will emerge from inside and give the adventurer a fierce hair washing service, and this hair washing service comes with a death curse!
Now the logic makes sense.
When Tammy saw this, she suddenly remembered the [Candle Hood] she obtained after clearing the ancient city of Sen. The introduction showed that wearing this hood can be ignored by the ghost hand, but it will reduce the magic recovery speed.
For someone like him who only uses magic as an auxiliary means, this price is not unacceptable.
Apart from this, the most important piece of information was the secret ritual of fire-injection that he discovered.
Luluwo has verified that the mental enhancement effect obtained through fire injection can enhance people's resistance to illusion magic. In addition, after the mental power becomes stronger, the brain will become sharper, and the efficiency can be greatly improved whether in close combat or casting magic.
Except for the Berserker, all professions need to use their brains in combat. I'm afraid that the secret ritual of fire-filling will become a necessity for adventurers in the future, and the value of the bonfire is still increasing!
It is estimated that the three corpse warlocks will also become the elite with the highest number of kills.
In addition to the fire injection, another piece of heavyweight information came from Luluwo's discovery, which was the information about [Tomb King Nito] and [Overlord Wolnir].
"Ghost King Nito is known as the first dead, and Overlord Wolnir is in contact with the abyss and intends to rely on this power to become the last dead. Is this equivalent to turning himself into a being similar to the Grave King? What a big ambition."
No wonder Overlord Warnir built an underground cemetery, it turned out to be for this purpose.
With the support of the background story, the ambitious image of Overlord Vonir was portrayed more fully, and Tammy was reminded of the scenes seen in the painting world "Khasas Warriors", those mighty and rampant Kasas armies.
"Fortunately, such ambitious people have not appeared in this era."
He didn't see Wonnier in the painting world at that time, but just feeling the other party's power made his heart beat wildly.
Even though the Overlord is not as powerful as the gods, he is also a powerful Overlord who shattered the crowns of various countries. After being contaminated by the abyss, his strength may be even more terrifying.
"I really don't want to be an enemy of this kind of person."
Then she flipped through the pages again, her eyes fixed on the information that had not been published to the newspapers. The content was:
Speculations about the location of the boss of the catacombs.
"Captain, are you so efficient? Are you already thinking about the leader?"
Tammy became both excited and nervous. He always had a feeling that the leader of the cemetery was Overlord Wonnier. Anyone would feel nervous at the thought of facing the war-torn king!
Suddenly, he thought of Elsa.
"If we really find the location of the leader, should we invite her to fight together? She is very powerful and the captain should be happy."
"No, no, she's the captain of the Light Eagle Group. Now that she's lost the game again, she must hate us to death."
"I'm so confused. Let me ask the captain for his opinion."
The battle with the Overlord seems to be just around the corner.
At the same time, in the palace.
The servants hid outside the bedroom of King Ainz III and whispered to each other, all of them had worried faces and frowned brows.
"What should I do? His Majesty has started again. Should I go in today?"
"Lord Eliphis is not here either. No one can comfort His Majesty. Should we ask Minister Oro?"
"The minister is responsible for handling almost all government affairs. It's better not to bother him. Besides, I'm a little afraid of him."
"Then today is a holiday!"
Inside the bedroom, Ainz III, who had fallen ill again, was wandering around, looking for the scent of blood.
But the door was closed and the windows were sealed, leaving no way to leave. These were the orders he gave personally when he was conscious.
His symptoms were very strange. When he had an attack, he would feel pain all over his body, his body would change and develop in an orc-like direction, and his mind would become blurred and extremely violent.
In order to alleviate this symptom, he needed to take potions that soothed the mind. He tried all kinds of mental potions and magic, but the effects became weaker and weaker, until finally there was almost no effect.
And the blood healing potion appeared at this time. The high-concentration blood healing potion can quickly soothe the mind and numb the body. It is a rare treasure for Ainz III.
Even though its effectiveness will become weaker with use, even at its weakest level it still has some effect, unlike other potions which become completely ineffective.
So he is now very dependent on this medicine.
Apart from this, Eliphis can play the same or even better role.
His "unique talent" can relieve Ainz III's pain. What's better than blood healing potion is that he can even make Ainz III sober for a short period of time, but unfortunately this ability has an interval for use.
With such miraculous effects and the repeated military exploits of the Light Eagle Regiment, Eliphis's status naturally rose. Even Minister Oro, who was in charge of government affairs after the king fell ill, looked up to him.
"Eliphis, Eliphis"
The name of Captain Light Eagle fell from Ainz III's altered mouth along with sticky saliva.
He was sometimes crazy and sometimes numb, and he would have an attack several times every month, but this was actually a good thing for him, because after the attack he would have a rare moment of clarity, and then he could work overtime to handle government affairs. He could not just ignore his country.
The pain today lasted exceptionally long, his body became more severely deformed, and his limbs convulsed, accompanied by unconsciousness.
The holy light magic circle carved on the ground by the Holy Light Church slowly lit up, trying to heal his spirit with gentle holy light.
But in an instant, the magic circle was "burned" and the room suddenly fell into darkness.
Ainz III suddenly stopped twitching and looked upward.
My gaze passed through the ceiling, through the sky, through the endless stars and the silent universe, through.
After a moment, he said to himself:
"Who's talking to me?"
He just stood there stupidly, his body straight, as if he had turned into an antenna, communicating with a perhaps imaginary existence.
Time passed, and everything in the outside world could no longer affect him. After an unknown amount of time, when the bedroom became even darker, the servants' surprised voices suddenly came from outside the door.
"Lord Eliphis is back!"
The tightly closed door of the bedroom was pushed open. With soft lighting, the still handsome Eliphis walked in and saw Ainz III standing there in a daze.
"Um?"
He just frowned, feeling something was wrong, but the next second Ainz III immediately roared, as frantically as before, even mad enough to pounce on Eliphith.
"Oh, I think too much."
Eliphis raised the corner of his mouth again and held down Ainz III’s head.
"Your Majesty, it's time to wake up. I have brought the princess back."
