Chapter 378 Obtained the Resurrection Stone Tablet (Happy Dragon Boat Festival!)
Hearing this topic, Cui Xi also raised her head, showing an expectant look.
Apart from the initial novelty, Cui Xi has now begun to feel bored with Neverwinter City. He is obviously a spellcaster, but this person seems to prefer the wilderness to the city, and prefers to get along with humans than to get along with him. Likes to get along with monsters, of course, in a hostile way.
"I still have some unfinished business in Neverwinter City." Tang Sen said while pinching a piece of soft bread from the Eastern Region: "Besides, if you want to explore that ruins, just the three of us are not enough."
In the team going to the ruins of Netheril, Tang Sen naturally included the mage Cui Xi.
Although this novice mage has various shortcomings, for Tang Sen, what he needs is never the opponent's combat power, but the opponent's background.
"If there is a situation that is too dangerous for me to solve myself, I can let Cui Xi go first." Tang Sen thought darkly in his heart: "When the time comes, we can solve the problem through her teacher."
Of course, this is just the worst assumption. Even excluding this, Cui Xi has a lot of good things.
Moreover, Tang Sen also plans to get in touch with the magical knowledge of this world through Cuixi.
Of course Tang Sen did not disclose these thoughts. He just continued:
"We still need to find teammates. At the very least, we need a good enough roamer."
Baan nodded in agreement: "Yes, if there were no rogues, the various traps in the ruins would be a headache."
"Also, are any of you familiar with Eternal Wilderness?" Tang Sen asked.
Cui Xi looked confused and shook her head: "I have never been to that place."
Tang Sen originally had no hope for her and just looked at Barn.
Barn hesitated for a moment and said: "I have been to the Eternal Wasteland several times, but only on the periphery."
"That place is too dangerous. Goblins and ogres are fine. However, I have heard a lot of rumors that there are dragons and giants in the eternal wasteland, and there may be some hidden lichs in the depths."
Tang Sen shrugged and said: "Then, in order to avoid encountering those dangerous entities, I think we also need a guide who is familiar with the eternal wasteland."
"Leave it to me." Barn said, "I will go to the tavern and ask, and I should be able to find it."
Tang Sen shook his head and said: "Since we are teammates who are going to take risks together, I think it would be better for us all to go and investigate together."
"That's right!" Trish suddenly became excited.
Obviously, she is also very interested in finding teammates.
"besides--"
Tang Sen paused: "Today is not a good time to go out. If possible, I hope you two will not leave the Moon Stone Mask. The Moon Stone Mask may not be safe either."
"I will take you out of the city later. Come back when everything is over."
The two of them suddenly looked confused.
"Unsafe? What do you mean? Could something big happen today?" Barn said.
"You will see it soon." Tang Sen did not say it clearly, and he was not sure whether everything would develop in the direction he envisioned. If an accident occurred, the entire city of Neverwinter might be destroyed.
"Are you proficient in prophecy spells?" Barn muttered: "Okay, then let's hang around for a while, hoping to meet some short-sighted goblins for fun."
The three of them finished their meal quickly and left the city directly on Moonstone Mask's floating ship. After placing the two of them on a hill, Tang Sen returned to Neverwinter City.
At this time, the Scorching Sun Competition had already begun, and through the high wall, Tang Sen could hear the roaring sounds coming from the arena.
He did not enter the arena, but went around to the back of the arena, which was close to the sea. Tang Sen gave himself the illusion of invisibility, and then quietly arrived at a small hidden port.
He could see many soldiers coming in and out of a small door under the arena, carrying various treasures in their hands and piling them on a small boat parked in the port.
Tang Sen carefully bypassed the soldiers and entered the cabin. After searching, a black stone tablet appeared in front of Tang Sen.
He picked up the sign and lowered the pendant from his wrist.
"This is the Resurrection Stone."
"."
After reciting silently three times, he opened his eyes and saw the pendant slowly rotating clockwise.
Tang Sen's lips curled up slightly, and he quietly left the ship. No soldiers noticed that among the piles of treasures, there was one seemingly ordinary item missing.
"It's really easy to get this thing if you know the plot."
Having obtained the Resurrection Stone, Tang Sen ignored those belongings. These things may be very attractive to other people, but they are meaningless to Tang Sen.
He quickly left the perimeter of the arena and came to the place where the city lord lived - Neverwinter Castle.
Obviously, the current city lord Fuch was busy secretly transporting the properties of those merchants and the proceeds from the Scorching Sun Competition, and was not in the castle. With the illusion of invisibility, Tang Sen easily entered Neverwinter Castle under the eyes of the guard. .
But the next moment, a piercing alarm sounded suddenly in the castle, and then, Tang Sen's illusion of invisibility suddenly failed.
"There is an intruder!"
The soldier at the door suddenly shouted and rushed towards Tang Sen.
"Is this kind of place really protected by magic?" Tang Sen frowned slightly, but did not panic. According to the news from the priest, his team leader was staring at the nine-ring red-robed mage. The opponent is currently staying in the arena.
The original defense forces of Neverwinter Castle, including those powerful warriors and some mages, were all driven away by the current city lord.
Now, when Neverwinter Castle is at its most empty, there are just some ordinary soldiers, and Tang Sen is not afraid.
In the blink of an eye, the soldiers had rushed in front of Tang Sen. Several blades slashed at Tang Sen. In an instant, Tang Sen was chopped into several pieces.
But before the soldiers could relax, the texture of the corpse changed, turning into a paper figurine and burned up, while Tang Sen's figure had long since disappeared.
"It's a spell caster! Find him quickly!"
The soldiers were shocked, and the entire Neverwinter Castle suddenly fell into chaos.
Tang Sen, however, had appeared silently in a room, looking at the old man lying on the bed, breathing weakly.
"Daggert Noember."
Tang Sen slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist.
"Although this is our first meeting, I'm sorry that your heart belongs to me."
"ROOM!"
