Gawain was stunned by Druid Pitman's shout. For a moment, he didn't realize what the life response the other party meant. He didn't realize until two seconds later that he was talking about the ball. .
"When the amber was bounced away just now, there was a weak life reaction in the sphere," Pittman repeated again, and carefully approached the sphere, reached out and took out another piece of amber from his arms. Dry and wrinkled leaves, while rubbing the petioles, he continued, "But the life response lasted for a moment and then disappeared... I have never seen such a strange phenomenon..."
Amber's side Rubbing his buttocks, he looked at the stone ball in disbelief: "What the hell... is this thing really alive?"
The three soldiers who were still trapped on the stone ball suddenly became more nervous. stand up.
Gawain, on the other hand, was more suspicious of the professional skills of a certain unscrupulous druid: "Could it be that your perception is wrong?"
Pittman suddenly became confused. Staring: "Impossible! I am a real Druid, a professional from the School of Natural Spirits. How could I make mistakes in such a basic field!"
Gawain: "...You are not Are you from the Forest Heart School?"
Pitman was stunned: "Is that what you said last time?"
Then he looked at Amber: "Last time you followed Which school of thought do people say I come from?"
Gowen: "..."
"In any case, my perception is not wrong," he noticed that the atmosphere was really awkward, even if it was based on Pittman couldn't hold on anymore, so he could only change the subject abruptly, "No matter which school of druid, sensing the vitality is the basic ability. Without this basic ability, no druid spell can be cast... And you see, this is the evidence."
As he spoke, he showed Gawain the originally dry and wrinkled leaf: The leaf had become full and plump at some point, and now it is full. It is in a emerald green state, as if it had just been picked from a branch.
"Although it looks lifeless on the surface, there is some form of life reaction inside..." Pittman walked around the stone ball and said seriously and professionally, "This seems to be a This is a very deep sleep, maybe it is because it has not yet transformed into a complete form?"
Hubo blinked his eyes, and he didn't know what thoughts were running in his head, and suddenly said: "Wait a minute, Could this be an egg? ”
“Egg?” Gawain was stunned, thinking that what the Gondor researchers had been studying for a long time a thousand years ago was really an egg. If it was an egg, then this matter was particularly interesting, but then he became even more confused, "What creature has such a big egg?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an idea suddenly came to his mind, He casually added: "Could it be a dragon egg?"
Amber and Pitman immediately fell silent. They looked at the big stone ball in the center of the tent with horror and nervousness, while Gawain But he touched his chin and fell into an inexplicable state of confusion.——This is an ancient plot development. After traveling to another world, he obtained a dragon egg or something. This routine had not been popular for several years before he traveled through it. As a result, this prehistoric level routine fell on him. Up?
But then he thought of something else - so what if it was a dragon egg, God knows how long it would take for it to hatch, based on the legendary lifespan of those giant dragons of tens of thousands of years. Look, they probably don't have to hatch an egg based on thousands of years. I'm afraid picking up a dragon egg means hatching it for a lifetime, and one's own lifetime may not be enough. They have to hatch the egg for generations until it finally hatches. When the dragon father and dragon mother came over, they took him away. They didn’t necessarily say thank you before leaving... maybe this is the dragon’s usual routine?
But if you really want to count it in millenniums, this "egg" was taken out from a ruins with a history of a thousand years. Maybe it is almost hatched?
Perhaps the sudden exposure to such a familiar routine activated some memories deep in his mind. Gawain just stood there and fell into a state of serious distraction. Amber called him several times and did not see him. In response, the half-elf lady finally jumped up and hit Gawain's chest with her head: "Wake up!!"
"Uh-huh——"
Gawain is not wearing any clothes now Armor, almost knocked out by the impact, immediately reached out to pull Amber's ears after regaining consciousness: "There's something wrong with you for hitting someone with your head so directly!"
"Nonsense, let me in. I left all the metal objects on my body. I have a war hammer and I don’t need to hit my head with it?" Amber quickly dodged Gawain's claws and retorted confidently, "You were suddenly stunned just now? What's going on?"
Although he wanted to ask the other party what he planned to do if he had a war hammer, Gawain still focused his attention back on the stone ball: "I'm wondering what if this This thing is really a dragon egg... How do I turn off its damn 'energy field'?"
There are still three soldiers stuck here unable to move.
"Being able to manipulate the power of metal can affect the flow of magic power. According to legend, there is a subcategory of dragons called metal dragons or 'earth dragons' that do have this ability," as a half-scholar (The other half is a cook, a thief, an appraiser, and a fortune teller) Pittman touched his chin and began to fiddle with the knowledge in his mind that he didn't know was true or false. "If you really think about it this way, there is a real chance that this thing is a dragon egg." It's very high."
Gawain didn't expect that the old man had something in his head, and he looked interested: "Oh? Do you know how to stop this power?"
"Then I don't know," Pitman spread his hands and continued before Gawain could hit anyone, "and even if I knew, it would be useless - if this is really a dragon egg, just because of my How can a low-level druid be able to deal with it? The dragon is a legendary species. Don't think it's just an egg. When the dragon is still an egg, it is equivalent to a middle-level human being.The magic of the legal profession. ”
Gawain was dumbfounded: What the hell do you mean by this heaven-defying setting? Is it not as good as a fertilized egg if you dare to tolerate human beings for half a lifetime?
At this time Amber suddenly looked over: "Aren't you a legendary hero? Cutting a magister is like cutting beans, can't you handle it? ”
“The abilities of knights and legal professions are different. "Gawain said with a frown. He knew how much water he had as a "Legendary". Although he had been getting more accustomed to this body during this period and was learning to master the abilities contained in his body and memory, it would take a long time. After all, too much power has been consumed in his deep sleep. In addition, the combat experience is not his own, so it is quite difficult to integrate. I am afraid that the power that can be exerted in actual combat will have to be further discounted. In today's territory, as a No. 1 It might be okay for a master, but if you rush out of the novice village, you may die on the way...
What's more, the egg in front of you (assuming it is really an egg) is not an area that the knight's skills can handle.
p>
But after thinking about it carefully, Gawain decided to give it a try: "I'll give it a try first. ”
The abilities of knights are indeed not as diverse and convenient as that of mages. Most of the skills that Gawain remembers in his mind are used to draw knives to kill people. They are not like the wizards who can only create water. There are seven or eight flavors of magic, but to deal with the egg in front of you... maybe some basic abilities can also come in handy.
Since this egg has a life response and can interact with magic power, then. Just use magic to communicate with it?
In this world where everything is driven by magic, any extraordinary profession knows the basic use of magic. Knights also use magic, but in the same way as mages. It's just different.
But at the most basic levels of perception and guidance, there is not much difference in the use of magic power between knights and wizards.
Gawain came to the stone ball and put his hand on it. Its rough surface, and the three soldiers who were sucked to the stone ball suddenly turned around nervously: they didn't know what method their lord was going to use to deal with this "stone ball", let alone their own lives. Will they become victims in this process? Although the life and death of almost all civilians in this era are in the hands of the nobles, when it comes to this, they can't help but become nervous.
Gawain. Noticing the looks in the soldiers' eyes, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm very stable. "
Then he no longer cared about the reactions of the three people, and instead concentrated on sensing the flow of magic.
Another "vision" emerged in his mind.
p>
That is the distribution of magic power within a certain range around him. Although it is not as clear as what the mages can "see" during meditation, it is still enough to indicate the flow of magic power. He saw that there seemed to be an extremely thin layer of fog inside the tent. Shrouded in the fog, there are subtle flows, and there are several obvious "gathering points" in the fog, two of which are slightly stronger.The ones standing nearby were Amber and Pitman, while three other very weak magic groups were gathered together. They were obviously the three ordinary soldiers.
And what about the "stone ball" that is guessed to be a dragon egg?
It is a dark black hole.
In the "field of vision" of magic perception, the center of the tent was absolutely black as if a piece of space had been dug out of thin air. It was pitch black without any reflection and without any details. There were only two Possibility: Either the stone ball is a substance that should never exist in this world and has no magic power at all, or the stone ball actively blocks all magic effects directed at it.
The first one can be ruled out because Hetty once sensed a magic reaction from the stone ball. Although the reaction was very strange and different from the known forms of magic, it did exist.
So this stone ball should have entered some kind of "self-protection" state now?
While Gu Wen was guessing, he carefully guided his spirit and moved closer to the darkness.
Amber has already proved the strength of this layer of "self-protection" by detecting landmines with his face. Too strong stimulation may cause him to be "bounced away" like Amber, so he must be careful again. careful.
In this way, after making extremely careful contact, he found that he did not trigger the "rebound" of the stone ball.
Not knowing whether a "dragon egg" has the ability to communicate, Gawain could only give it a try and constantly strengthen the idea of communication in his mind.
At first, there was no response.
But after a few seconds, he heard some buzzing sounds echoing in his mind, and it was not an auditory hallucination.
This stone ball is whispering to himself.
Gawain's spirit suddenly lifted up, and he almost lost the connection due to the turmoil in his mood, but soon he stabilized the fragile connection again and issued his first greeting: " Hello, I don’t mean any harm, you can call me Gawain.”
The mental fluctuations coming from the stone ball became clearer and clearer, and finally changed from a whisper like a broken thought. He spoke a word that could be heard clearly. It was a voice with a metallic sound that could not distinguish between male and female: "Is it safe outside now?"
Gowen suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried his best to calm himself down. He passed on his sincerity: "It's safe here, you can rest assured."
"If you don't believe it, get out."
Gao Wen: "..."
