After Being Fancied by a Necromancer - Chapter 20
Cyril tasted the sweetness of exploring the Rose Garden and became active in the night tour.
Under the guidance of the system, he then found an old thick-skinned book – “Strange Creatures Cookbook” in the hole of a huge tree.
Cyril looked at the manual for a while by the dim light of the kerosene lamp, and then closed the manual with a blank expression.
The book starts with ten ways to eat a fat chicken with a round face, but the illustration on the page clearly shows that it is an owl!
Owls are so cute, how can they eat owls!
However, in addition to cooking-related parts, this manual also introduces the characteristics and habits of many creatures (although the original author’s intention is to tell readers how to capture creatures and make food), it is worth paying attention to learning .
So Cyril tucked the book under his arm and let the system continue to navigate.
He moved deeper into the forest behind Rose Manor.
Through a small forest, Cyril finally saw a quaint log cabin.
At this time, the bright moon was in the sky, and the night was thick.
The chalet surrounded by many tall trees looks a little eerie.
Cyril walked around the chalet, but saw nothing.
Finally, he walked to the window, raised the kerosene lamp, stuck out half of his head and looked into the window.
However, inside the cabin seems to be the most normal simple facilities that ordinary hunters use for rest in the woods: a small bed, a simple stove, and even a chair.
[The stuff is in there! 】
The system said with certainty.
Cyril pushed open the wooden door.
After he entered the house, he closed the wooden door again.
Since there was not much place to hide things in the cabin, Cyril quickly found a set of tarot cards in the belly of the kettle on the stove.
[Name: Fortune Teller’s Tarot
Purpose: Increases divination accuracy by 10%
How to use: Maybe you need to take an elective course in divination after entering the wizarding academy (divination is a wonderful art to solve uncertainty!)
Note: Of course, it is recommended that you have no talent for divination and have no money to find an opportunity to sell it in exchange for some witch crystals. 】
Seeing that the system’s wording was a lot more polite, Cyril felt a little relieved.
He continued to turn over the entire cabin thoroughly, and found two shiny flakes – Wu Jing in the pillowcase on the simple wooden bed.
[Name: Ordinary Wu Jing
Number: 2
Purpose: Common currency of the Wizarding Land
How to use: 1 witch crystal = 10 gold coins
Explanation: As you can see, these may be just 2 ordinary witch crystals missed by a stingy wizard. 】
Cyril was silent when he thought of the only 5 gold coins on him.
That was the last time the mercenary captain paid him for helping to hunt longhorn boars in the foggy forest.
These 5 gold coins can’t even be exchanged for 1 Wu Jing!
Cyrilton felt an increased sense of poverty.
Cyril had always been facing the small door of the cabin sideways, he immediately turned his head and looked at the door vigilantly.
“Hey, I liked that too.”
A baby-faced boy with a short dagger saw the Wu Jing that Cyril had not had time to collect, and his eyes lit up.
Although he didn’t know what it was, it was always right to grab it first!
The boy waved the short dagger in his hand and made a vicious gesture of cutting his neck.
Cyril was a little helpless, he looked so easy to bully?
He glanced at the boy calmly and whispered the incantation “Raging Fire”.
This is also one of the magic spells recorded on the old tapestry last time – “fireball”, Cyril has been practicing.
As he drew the magic rune of “Fireball”, a fireball the size of a human head appeared in the palm of Cyril’s right hand.
The fireball is like a small sun, and it suddenly compares the dim light of the kerosene lamp in the two hands, illuminating the whole cabin extremely bright.
Everyone is using cold weapons, but you actually used magic? ? ?
The baby-faced teenager’s pupils are shaking.
Sorry for disturbing you. Goodbye.
He glanced at Cyril in a panic, turned his head and ran, for fear that the new student who could use magic would catch up and take away his belongings.
As soon as the boy left, Cyril immediately guided the magic power condensed into a fireball to disperse, and the bright fireball also disappeared.
He quickly shook his right hand.
Wu Wu, burn him to death!
Sure enough, the technology is immature and not suitable for pretending to be a boss.
I don’t know when the fireball will not be hot, Cyril sighed.
He was about to leave here, but when he reached the door of the cabin, he couldn’t get through it.
It was obviously a step forward, but it was a step further from the position of the wooden door.
A trap? ? ?
Cyril frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
But the boy just now was able to go out smoothly.
What is the difference between yourself and that boy?
Cyril suddenly thought of something, took out the two witch crystals and tarot cards in his pocket, put them on the bed, and walked out.
As expected, this time he successfully walked to the door of the log cabin.
Boy, is this something and a person can only take one? !
Cyril threw the witch crystal and tarot cards out of the window, and then walked out the door of the cabin by himself, still not good.
It wasn’t until he finally tried to get out of the small window that he managed to escape from the cabin.
Cyril straightened his wrinkled clothes, picked up the witch crystal and tarot cards on the ground, and pouted.
The only way to force people to leave is to go through the window, which is really bad fun.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of Mr. Scott’s sly smile.
Cyril shook his head, shook the handsome wizard’s malicious smile out of his mind, and continued on.
However, after he walked a long way, the system did not feel any obvious magical fluctuations.
During this period, he also bumped into some people who were alone like him. Everyone looked at each other vigilantly and hurriedly left in different directions.
The night is getting darker.
Cyril felt a little tired after walking such a long distance.
Go back to rest tonight, and continue tomorrow, Cyril thought in his heart.
You can also exchange messages with the Webbs and the blond boy tomorrow.
So he went home and walked to the main building of Rose Manor.
When walking back, Cyril realized how far he had traveled.
I didn’t expect the hinterland of Rose Manor to be so deep, as if there was no boundary in sight!
He walked for nearly an hour before returning to the splendid main building.
When stepping into the familiar hall, Cyril wanted to immediately return to the big soft bed in the room and slump himself into a ball of cat cake.
However, when he reached the entrance of the stairs, the four teenagers who were sitting on the stairs stood up in unison, holding bright weapons in their hands.
Four strong teenagers lined up in a row, strictly blocking the possibility of going upstairs.
Cyril glanced at them, remembering the “Arles’ gang” mentioned by one of the girls at dinner.
It’s really shameless, and he actually guards the stairs and robs.
“Do you know who I am?”
A bronze-skinned teenager standing in the center spoke with a fierce voice.
I see you are Aristotle’s second aunt Jeanne Masto, Cyril complained in his heart.
He raised his head and looked at the person in front of him coldly, his bright eyes narrowed.
The usually clear and warm apricot eyes flashed with impatience at this time.
Arles’ face sank when he saw Cyril so unprofessional.
It looks like a newcomer, but it lacks lessons.
He raised his hand and waved, and the three teenagers beside him rushed straight to Cyril.
[System! Report to me the location! ]
Cyril is also ready.
He didn’t just improve his mental power in the foggy moon forest before.
【Good! I’m coming! It’s finally time to practice, it’s exciting! 】
The system rubs hands excitedly.
[Your right hand, at one o’clock, turn sideways! 】
Cyril quickly turned sideways, dodged an attack, and then raised his leg and kicked the man’s knee.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to feel the bonus of the warm power of Vigorous Bobo Fruit in his body.
The man staggered and fell to the ground.
[Be careful behind you! Bow ten centimeters! 】
The man who had planned to attack Cyril from behind suddenly found that the boy had eyes on his back, and lowered his head steadily to dodge his attack.
Cyril could almost hear the sound of the short dagger on his head cutting through the air.
Taking advantage of the opponent’s unsteady bottom, he lifted his leg and kicked the man’s lower abdomen three inches.
[Eight o’clock on the left! 】
Being too late to appreciate the man squatting while clutching his crotch, Cyril picked up his short dagger and threw it towards the man on the left.
The short dagger flew past the man’s right shoulder, and the sharp blade shaved off a strand of hair on his right side.
Finally, Cyril looked towards the blue-faced Arles.
He chanted the fireball spell “Raging Fire” while panting slightly, and smashed a palm-sized fireball at Arles’ head.
Ales’ pupils shrank, and he quickly squatted down to dodge the fireball’s attack.
The fireball hit the wall behind him, shattering into countless bright sparks, and then absorbed by the magic wall.
Cyril walked up the stairs calmly with a light expression on his face, and was no longer hindered.
He didn’t encounter the “robber” again until he returned to his room.
Sure enough, strength is king in this world!
The concentration of elements in Rose Manor is so high, you need to meditate well to improve your spiritual power and magic power!
Cyril buried himself in the fluffy and soft bedding, thinking this before going to bed.
