Chapter 125 Return to Ignis

Chapter 126 Return to Ignis

Three days later in the morning.

In the stilt house of the prophet at the camp of the fishmen tribe.

Richard specially called Fingart to come.

"Fingart, I plan to return to the surface tomorrow. As for when I will come next time, I don't know." After getting along for so long, Richard was quite satisfied with Fingart, his first servant.

"Master, are you going to abandon your humble servant?" Hearing that Richard's master was going to return to the surface, Fingart shed two lines of fish tears sadly

"Okay, let's talk about business." Richard knew that Fingart was mostly acting, but he was still a little touched in his heart.

Fingart was mixed with worry and joy. He was worried that if Richard could stay, the blood food of the tribe every month would not be a problem at all, but now that Richard left, the burden of killing monsters fell on him.

It is estimated that when hunting monsters again, the warriors in his own tribe will suffer a lot of casualties.

Secondly, many of the special potions made by Richard for the fishmen were distributed to the warriors in the tribe through it in the past two months, and many warriors have improved their strength very quickly.

In this regard, his success rate is still too low, and he can't make up for the gap after Richard left.

In other words, after Richard left, the speed of the warriors in his tribe will be significantly reduced, and he has to think of a good excuse. After all, when distributing potions before, he can say that they were all potions made by himself.

When he thought of the scene of many middle and high-level fishmen warriors surrounding him and asking him for potions, Fingart couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed!

What he was happy about was that his master was finally leaving, and he could finally be free!

But why did he feel a little lost, as if he had lost a backer!

After all, as a master, Richard treated him very well, and never interfered in the internal affairs of the fishman tribe. In addition to instructing him to arrange people to find monsters and rare herbs, he was not nostalgic for power.

It seems that it is better for the master to stay in his tribe than to leave!

So, Fingart wiped his tears and said to Richard: "By the way, Master, if you want to return to the surface for cultivation, you can tell me, maybe I, your humble servant, can help?"

Richard heard this and thought that Fingart's soul source was in his hands, and he was an absolutely trustworthy member, so he said directly: "I plan to collect a few advanced meditations and learn some new witchcraft when I go back this time.

For this, I can't think of any way to do it in the Underdark."

Fingart frowned when he heard this, "Advanced meditation? And from the tone of the master, it takes several volumes, this difficulty is really possible.

I practice blood meditation, which is not suitable for the master to learn, and the other clans in the Dark Water Lake also practice blood meditation.

Hey! By the way, it seems that there are some scattered forces on the gray dwarf side. It is said that they were established by underground humans, and there should be advanced meditation."

Suddenly, Fingart's eyes lit up, and he told Richard in detail what he saw and heard.

Richard was overjoyed at first, but after a while he shook his head and said, "You said that there are some underground human forces in the area controlled by the gray dwarves, so their leaders should at least be formal wizards, right?"

"Uh, yes, master!" Fingart instantly figured out the problem and couldn't help sweating on his head.

He didn't want his master to leave, but was misunderstood by his master as asking him to seek his own death, and then killed him on the spot, then he would die unjustly.

"Master, I." Fingart explained hurriedly with a horrified face.

Richard waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, I know you have good intentions, but you just didn't think it through."

However, this gave Richard a third way to choose, but it was a bit risky. First of all, he was completely unfamiliar with the situation in the area controlled by the gray dwarves.

Secondly, if he adopted the method of killing the wizard apprentices of the underground human organization, he would try to get the first level of the advanced meditation method they practiced from the other party.

It's not impossible to have a soul-eating spider, but it's easy to be targeted and hunted by the official wizards of the other organization, so the risk is very high.

You said you don't kill the other wizard apprentice, make friends with the other forces, and then exchange rare items? Wake up! Advanced meditation methods are the foundation of each force, how can it be so easy to trade.

You say you have precious items they need, advanced potions, etc.? Well. There is a high probability that the other party will send someone to kill you. If your things are really important to them, then the other party may directly send a formal wizard to kill you and get the treasure.

In the end, it is hard work, planning for a long time, and killing the other wizard apprentice, but the meditation method obtained may not match your own Rodrigo meditation method, and it cannot achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two.

In that case, it's all in vain.

Although Richard didn't know much about the origin of Rodrigo's meditation method, he had heard that Rodrigo was a famous ancient necromancer, the top existence among necromancers.

Since they are both necromancers, the meditation methods handed down by the three necromancer academies are definitely the most likely to fit Rodrigo's meditation method, that is, after breaking the limit, it is very likely to achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two.

That's why Richard was so persistent in going back.

"Let me go back to the surface first. If I can't handle it, I will come back naturally. Fingart, have you forgotten? I have two high-level magic stones in my hand. One goes back and the other can come back." Richard comforted.

"As you wish, wise master." Fingart thought it made sense and stopped persuading him.

——

Three days later in the morning.

In the sacrificial hall of the blind fishman tribe camp.

Richard carried a bulging bag with [Mutation Heart] and other rare raw materials in it, and the soul-eating spider in his arms, while Fingart was preparing the hexagram teleportation array on the side.

When Fingart installed the high-level magic stone handed to him by Richard in the center of the three-headed snake statue, the entire hexagram teleportation array flickered three times.

"Master, it's OK. You can teleport back directly by holding the Kumera statue and stepping into the hexagram teleportation array." Fingart said respectfully.

Richard nodded. He had studied this legendary magic circle for a while and knew that it was true.

If the teleportation array on the other side was destroyed, then even if he walked into his own teleportation array, the teleportation could not be activated, and there was no danger to him.

After all, the teleportation array in front of him was just an ordinary long-distance teleportation array, not the legendary cross-continental and cross-plane teleportation array.

Just think about it, how advanced can a teleportation array that can be arranged by a blind fishman tribe be.

This also shows from another aspect that the surface of the dark area is just below the ground, and the vertical distance from the surface is not far.

"Then I'm leaving, Fingart, I hope your strength will be improved a little when I see you next time!" Richard said with a smile, and without listening to Fingart's answer, he directly held the statue and walked into the teleportation array.

In an instant, the blue light of the hexagram teleportation array was strong, and Richard's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!

After a dizzy spell, when Richard came to his senses, he had been teleported to the secret cave.

Seeing this familiar scene, Richard was stunned for a moment, but immediately looked around carefully. The bodies of the fishmen had long disappeared. Judging from the traces, they seemed to have been dragged into the water by some unknown amphibious creatures in the underground river.

The long drag marks on the shallow sand are still clearly visible.

As for why he judged so, because the teleportation array was intact, it was highly likely that it was not discovered by intelligent creatures.

Otherwise, if the apprentices of the three major colleges discovered this place, they would definitely report it to the college and get rewards. And if this was really the case, the teleportation array of the other blind fishman tribe would have been teleported there long ago.

But he stayed in the blind fishman tribe for half a year, and not even half a shadow was teleported here, which means that this place was most likely not discovered by others.

Richard carefully distinguished the footprints on the soft sand again and found that there were only three kinds of footprints in total. In addition to the fishman and his own, there was another one, which was obviously some kind of huge four-legged creature with webbed feet.

This is good news, although he had already left a backup plan and had already scanned the pattern of the teleportation array into the recording crystal.

But there was a ready-made, secret teleportation array, which saved him a lot of effort.

Still from the underwater secret passage, Richard swam back to the place where he had encountered the old fishman prophet and the ancient dark fishman.

This place is still full of potholes, especially a few huge pits, which show the intensity of the battle at that time.

Richard carefully estimated the power of these witchcrafts and felt that these pits were probably the witchcrafts released by formal wizards, which caused such an effect.

Because he himself is currently considered a top third-level wizard apprentice, and the zero-level witchcraft he mastered has reached the extreme level, which even he can't do, and it is likely that it was caused by formal wizards.

Although the traces of the battle are still there, the bodies of the fishmen and some of the attached items have long disappeared, and it is likely that they were swept away after the war.

Richard shook his head, feeling that things have changed a lot, and began to walk towards the surface along the shallows on one side of the underground dark river.

Two hours later, Richard returned to the familiar Ignis School station, and suddenly, he couldn't help but sigh a little.

However, as soon as he entered the academy, he found that many wizard apprentices wearing the Ring of Noth and the apprentice robes of Gurus Academy were still in the academy.

But the number of people was obviously much less than before he left, which made him very curious.

Could it be that the three undead wizard academies have issued another mission since organizing the joint clearing mission?

Richard was thinking about whether to report to Teacher Ceres first, but he changed his mind and gave up the idea. Instead, he continued to wear a hood, covering most of his face, and came to the academy trading area.
