Chapter 269: The Law Of The Scepter, Ghostly Ghost Fire
Li Ang narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze passed over Guland's figure, and landed in a dark room in the inner layer of the castle.
Lying on the bed in that room was a skeleton covered in a black robe. Its chest had collapsed, its skin was scorched black, and it had lost its breath.
A dagger is stuck in the skull's head, and a scroll of parchment hangs from the top of the dagger.
"Um?"
Li Ang frowned slightly, feeling uncomfortable, as if some danger was approaching.
He restrained his mind, stared at the burning ghost fire on his finger, and said softly: "Come out, I can feel you."
The ghost fire fluttered, as if it had heard a call, it slowly merged into his palm and got into his right arm.
At the elbow, a bronze ring slipped from the cuff and rolled onto Li Ang's knee.
It was a ring cast in bronze.
There is a circle of simple and complicated patterns engraved on the ring surface, and wisps of faint mist linger in it, which seems to contain an unspeakable majesty and domineering, which makes people solemn and solemn.
Three short curved arrows are engraved in the center of the ring, with a hovering Azure Dragon on the left.
"...This is the dragon vein scepter."
Guland's voice rang in his ears, interrupting Li Ang's meditation.
"Um?"
Li Ang froze for a moment, lowered his head, looked at the ring, his eyes flickered.
"It's a treasure lost in the dust of history."
Guland walked up to him, stared at the silver bracelet in his hand, and said seriously: "You can call it the 'Dragon Vein Spirit' - it is a unique material with extremely strong life energy.
In the architectural pattern of this ancient castle, a large number of dragon vein spirits are stored, and they are artificially cultivated and compressed into a ring to maintain their original appearance. "
Li Ang picked up the spirit of the dragon vein with great interest, rubbed it a few times, "Since the spirit of the dragon vein is such a precious thing, how could it be passed down to modern society?"
"Because the effect of the spirit of the dragon veins is too heaven-defying,"
Guland explained: "According to rumors, once a god fell on the top of the world, the spirit of the dragon vein was born in the depths of the ruins of the temple.
The original owner of this ring was a knight. He was ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to go to the temple to explore, but he found this dragon spirit.
With the help of this knight, His Majesty the Emperor gained powerful power to conquer the world, unify Europe, and establish a kingdom.
However, when he returned to the old castle, he was shocked to find that the palace where he had lived for two Hundred Years had already been reduced to ruins, and the temple had disappeared.
The spirit of the dragon veins also disappeared.
His Majesty the Knight suspected that the person he met was the one who stole the spirit of the dragon vein.
The knight followed the clues and finally found this place, and found the spirit of the dragon vein in the ruins of the temple. "
Li Ang nodded silently, "You mean, the thieves used the spirit of the dragon veins to transform the mechanism of the temple to make it stronger, and ambushed the guards here."
"Yes, I think that's it."
Guland nodded, and said: "I know that the guardian here is named Alsace Chromie, and he is a very powerful gladiator. But he didn't steal the spirit of the dragon veins, he just took away the spirit of the dragon veins made rings."
Li Ang rubbed his nose and asked with a smile: "So, you want to make a deal with me tonight, just want to partner with me to steal that ring?"
"That's right."
Gulande said sincerely: "Although I appreciate your courage and strength, if you rely on you alone, you will not be able to regain the spirit of the dragon veins anyway, and even your life is in danger!
Moreover, the spirit of the dragon veins is a treasure treasured by the royal family after all, and should not be disclosed to outsiders. If you are willing to sell the spirit of the dragon veins to me, I guarantee that you will pay a generous reward afterwards to make up for your loss. "
Li Ang shrugged his shoulders, "Okay then, it seems that this deal is a safe one.
However, I have two other questions. "
Guland said: "Please tell me."
Li Ang continued to ask: "Whether the effect of the spirit of the dragon veins is limited, I need to determine whether it can really improve the physical quality of humans or monsters."
He remembered that in the plot of the movie, the spirit of the dragon veins can improve people's various qualities.
For example, attributes such as strength, speed, agility, precision, and endurance are all doubled.
For another example, intelligence and reaction ability are all doubled.
Also, resilience.
If the effect of Dragon Vein Spirit is only one time, then Li Ang would rather choose to improve his own strength, speed and reflexes than to enhance his own quality.
Guland replied: "Theoretically speaking, the spirit of dragon veins can improve the physique of human beings and the qualities of demonized monsters.
However, you should be aware that this kind of stuff is only for Transcendents.
For example, the strength and speed of ordinary human beings can be increased by 2.5 times under the effect of the Dragon Vein Spirit, but it is absolutely unable to bear the 4 times increase, at most 3.7 times;
If it is a Transcendent, it will be reduced to 0.6 to 0.8 times.
In addition, the spirit of the dragon veins will only produce an effect every fifteen seconds, and after using it, it can no longer be activated. "
"Oh, I see."
Li Ang nodded suddenly, then raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and frowned, "It's almost time."
Guland was stunned and asked, "When is the time coming?"
Li Ang spread his hands, "During our conversation just now, there were footsteps outside, and it is estimated that those guards are about to rush in."
Guland's face changed, and he said hastily: "Don't panic, it's the secret defense device of the ancient family. It's controlled by a special person. Unless I destroy it myself, there's no way to stop it."
Li Ang sighed, "I know that this defensive device is left by ancient magicians, and it is only designed for ancient wizards and patients of the Black Death.
According to you, you are the Black Death patient of that ancient family, right?
You built this castle? "
"good."
Guland said frankly: "I am the captain of the guard here.
This is the castle left by my ancestors, and also the holy tomb left by the ancient wizards. There are many defensive measures around the holy tomb, which are enough to resist any intruders. "
Li Ang pouted, "It sounds like a turtle shell~"
"It's not a turtle shell, it's a defensive device."
Guland corrected: "Our Institute of Ancient Witchcraft was an ancient magic school before World War II. Our students are all elites with strengths far beyond the limits of human beings."
"How did you research magic?"
Li Ang looked at Guland in surprise.
"Uh... I don't know magic, I can only tell you that our learning method is different from other wizards."
Guland scratched his hair, coughed dryly, and said: "In short, we ancient wizards are a group of mad scientists who have found the method of combining alchemy technology and alchemy from ancient books and materials, and created various powerful Alchemy items.
