The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0105 planning

Undercity.

When Li Xun came to Undercity again, he felt that the environment here was much better than Evernight City. Unfortunately, he still couldn't fully adapt to being underground.

Coming to the soul circle prepared by Yougui, 100 soul crystals have been stacked inside. Li Xun put the soul magic beads into it, and used the power of the soul to drive the circle to start running. The construction of the Mage Tower this time was much faster than that in Eternal Night City. After all, the bone sea here is of higher quality, and the dead energy provided is extremely abundant. It only took 7 hours to complete the construction.

Walking into the Mage Tower and inspecting it briefly, Li Xun was delighted to find that the library here is shared with the library of Eternal Night City, and the books he had entered and sorted can be found here, haha, this saves himself a lot of trouble. Great drudgery. However, all the magic materials around him have basically been exhausted. If they want to build these two mage towers, they need to find ways to get the harvest of blackmailing the legendary mage last time.

According to the agreement, the magic materials should already be in the hands of Siris at this time, but how to get in touch with her to avoid the harassment of the legendary mage is a fatal problem, if not, the legendary mage will be led to his lair among.

Transiting through Eternal Night City, Li Xun quickly returned to the stone pagoda. At this time, the decoration of the pagoda had been completed. After the craftsmen were sent away, the stone pagoda regained its tranquility. Li Xun rang the brass bell on the desk, and Little Jack soon appeared in front of him.

"I'll go to Pierpont and stay there for a while, during which time you will be responsible for taking care of this stone tower." Li Xun reminded a few words, leaving a large bag of gold coins to Little Jack. Although as Little Jack, he doesn't need these gold coins, but he can't use child labor and still give him money. This can be regarded as Li Xun's little insistence!

Little Jack sent the mage to the stone tower, and Li Xun recruited the newly created bat demon. Seeing an ugly giant bat that was as strong as a calf with wings spread more than 5 meters appeared in front of him, Little Jack was also horrified. Although the magic of the mage has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, seeing it with my own eyes still makes my heart beat extraordinarily violently.

Although the Bat Demon looks like a giant bat in appearance, it is still an undead creature in essence, so Li Xun used it with extra care, sitting on a specially made seat on it, avoiding all the big and small cities along the way, and walking along the wilderness, fields and mountains. Walking on a hill is far faster than riding a horse. The normal flying height of the bat demon is only 100 meters, and the limit can reach 150 meters. Because the wings are too thin, they can't resist the high-altitude wind, so they can only glide quickly under the clouds.

Li Xun strengthened the mage's shield to block the oncoming icy air, and leisurely gazed at the scenery below him. Looking forward from a height of 100 meters, the mottled variegated colors on the ground have begun to turn into a rough and relaxing green. It's already August, the weather is getting hotter, the ground is full of greenery, wild flowers and green grass that you don't know, you can see everywhere, and the fields reclaimed by farmers are dotted among them, which is very poetic and picturesque.

Two days later, Li Xun stopped in a hidden place to put away the bat demon. Pierpont is 40 miles ahead. In order to avoid being locked by the detection circle in the city, I had to come down early and fly by myself. Using the flying technique to get half a mile away from the city gate, he changed to walking. Countless passers-by were alarmed along the way, and they all peeked at this unscrupulous mage.

Showing the mage's badge at the city gate, Li Xun entered Pierpont smoothly. According to the previous agreement with the female thief Elena, I came to live in the hotel on St. Kelly Street and handed a small bronze medal to the hotel owner.

An hour later, Elena knocked on the door.

Li Xun opened the wooden door of the guest room, and teased, "I thought you could only walk on the window sill!"

Elena rolled her eyes at the mage angrily, with a disdainful expression of "How dare you say it" on her vigorous face, she walked into the room shaking her slender waist.

"Dear mage, you ran away to the countryside without saying a word and became a master. Why do you want to come back today to take a look?" Elena's mouth was full of sourness.

Li Xun chuckled a few times, pretending to be surprised and asked: "I thought you went back to Ancona Port, why are you still here?"

Elena turned around, glared at the mage with bright beautiful eyes, and said angrily: "My task is to be your exclusive liaison officer! You can't find anyone, how can I go back and be scolded by the boss, so I have to stay here You're homeless! Tell me, what's the matter with you today? You won't show up if you have nothing to do."

Li Xun didn't expect the female thief to know him so well. Could it be that he is really superficial? Speechlessly touching his nose, he confessed.

"There's something going on today."

"I know. Alright, let's talk, what kind of information do you want?" Elena said with her hands on her hips, as if I knew it was a fortune teller.

Li Xun lowered his voice, with a very secretive look: "I want to know the location of the legendary mage of the principality, Katie Enni. I need to find a better backer, and I want to follow the legendary master's footsteps, so I want to know where he is , isn’t it convenient to find it this way?”

In order not to reveal his intentions, Li Xun spent a lot of time making up excuses, but it was useless at all. Elena's eyes were wide open, like a frightened puppy, she pointed her finger at the mage and said no for a long time. Speak up.

"You, you..." Elena stuttered for a long time, and finally managed to smooth out the words: "Can you have a normal transaction request? Last time I asked for the information of the Undead Council, and this time I want the whereabouts of the legendary wizard of the Principality , why do you always follow those top figures, do you know that their intelligence is difficult to obtain!"

Now that the words have been made clear, Li Xun has nothing to hide.

"Tell me, how much? Or you can't make this deal?" Li Xun put on a contemptuous expression, sat down quietly and waited for the female thief's conclusion.

Elena anxiously spun the spinning top around the room, her eyeballs rolling around, and every time she turned around, she looked at the mage and sighed, and then continued. When the soles of the shoes were almost worn out, he stopped in front of Li Xun and gave a correct sentence.

"We accepted this deal! But first let me say that the information we have obtained is highly variable. There is basically nothing that can restrain people like the legendary mage of the Principality. Many activities can be done as you like, even if the Grand Duke of the Principality wants To invite him to the banquet, we need to make an appointment early, and there are still many people who can miss the appointment! So we can listen to some information from the outside, but there is no guarantee that the legendary mage will proceed according to the plan."

"I understand that I only need the basic whereabouts of the legendary mage, and I don't need specific detailed information, but the requirement for immediacy is higher. I want to know what big move he has made in the shortest possible time. Can it be done?"

Elena nodded with difficulty, and waved her hand weakly: "I'll go first, and I'll discuss the specific details and price with you in the evening." After saying that, she opened the door and left in a hurry. It seems that the mage really mentioned a very hurt brain problem.

After Elena left, Li Xun went to the Mage Association in a carriage again, labeling his trip to the capital as a business trip. He has long heard that the Mage Association has an architectural drawing of a letter tower, which can transmit a short message through the power of the magic circle, and this time he will also take the opportunity to buy one. The location of the stone pagoda is too remote. It is fine to live in seclusion there, but you must not stop the exchange of information with the mainstream society, so as not to grasp the wrong situation.

At night, Li Xun, who was studying, sensed Elena's breath again, and the female thief slipped in through the window as usual.

Li Xun looked at the tall and slender female thief in a tight-fitting gray cloth smock with a smile, and commented: "That's right! Experts should also show the temperament and characteristics of experts, so as to leave a good impression on customers! "

Elena didn't bother to pay attention to the mage's crazy words, she stood in the room and said solemnly: "Your Excellency, mage, are you sure you want to buy the whereabouts of the legendary mage of the Principality?"

"Of course. There is no doubt about it."

"Okay, the cost is 80,000 gold coins. This is the approximate itinerary of the legendary mage Katie Enni. If there is any unexpected change, I will come here to inform you as soon as possible."

Li Xun readily paid the bill with gems. The last deal with Casas made him not have to worry about gold coins in the short term.

Elena took out a thin piece of parchment and put it on the table, looked at the mage with uncertain eyes for a while, then turned and left the room.

Li Xun took a deep breath, picked up the parchment and took a closer look. In fact, there was nothing to see. There were only a dozen or so short lines, and the information was so rudimentary that it was outrageous.

"The Principality's legendary mage Ketty Ernie,

level 22,

173 years old,

He usually lives in the mage's tower on the western outskirts of Pierpont, and rarely goes out.

...

...

..."

The front is the simple personal information of the legendary mage, and the back is his travel situation in the past year. It can be seen from the information that the legendary mage has always lived in seclusion and always conducted the latest magic experiments in the mage tower. Even if he went out occasionally, he would be teleported back and forth. Outsiders can only know that he has been out through some indirect information. It is very difficult. Keep track of his whereabouts.

However, due to the ravages of the Undead Council in recent years, the legendary mage has become more active. He once stayed in the Storm Fortress for a while, and has been in frequent contact with the mages of the mage guild recently. It is rumored that he made an appointment with the visiting mage Trout to go there in 3 days. Visit Serena, the legendary mage of the Mages Guild who resides in the Principality of Novus.

This information is still credible, at least the subsequent secret activities are in line with some of Li Xun's judgments, and the only thing that can be used now is the time when he and Tello visited the Azure Star. It is conceivable that they must go to reveal the details of the Undead Council, and then bargain with Azure Star, it is impossible to leave halfway, this is probably their own opportunity.

Li Xun thought silently, the light in his eyes gradually revealed.
