Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan
Chapter 235 Mutual calculations (a large number of character settings)
The party lasted until late, and ended only after the heroes had drank all the wine in the village.
Before going to bed, Zheng Shu sat in the stone house summarizing what he had seen today.
Apart from anything else, at least the presence of these discerning heroes and Vera made Zheng Shu understand that people in this world have their own theories of activity, and sometimes, what you see may not necessarily be what you know. of.
Fortunately, until now, Zheng Shu's behavior has maintained a minimum impact, even at the expense of reducing his access to influence factors.
Because he has never forgotten that there are two major inhibitory forces in this world that control the entire world. The names of these two profiteers are not in vain. Until now, Zheng Shu has been carefully looking for each other to release himself into this world. s reason.
As for another gain, Zheng Shu probably learned about Vera's magic skills during the chat.
Although there is still a long way to go with Zheng Shu's imagination of a top magician who is extremely proficient in magic and can even touch magic, he is already much better than the guys he met who were more like warlocks than wizards. not enough.
Zheng Shu has always been very thirsty for all kinds of magic knowledge in this world, because only by knowing the basic operating rules of these extraordinary powers in this world can he transform the knowledge related to alchemy he learned in the dragon world into this world. in the world.
Although Zheng Shu used various things similar to magic circles and alchemy on the Nameless Island to transform the treasure house of the three Gorgon sisters into a very modern one, in fact most of the "magic" in the treasure house was The power of three sisters.
It's not so much magic as it is divine magic.
So after finally getting an opportunity to learn about the essential power of this world, Zheng Shu didn't want to give up so easily.
The only question now is how he can make the other person teach him willingly. After all, no matter how low his emotional intelligence is, Zheng Shu knows that knowledge like this is absolutely precious.
What's more, in the Xingyue world, whether it is magic or magic, its power relies on mystery.
By analogy, the magical power of a world as a whole is similar to a huge wireless network. The more people use it, the worse the "signal" becomes. Therefore, everyone who knows the relevant knowledge will try their best to ensure that the knowledge is not spread outside. To ensure that your "signal" is at its strongest.
In such an environment, it has become much more difficult for Zheng Shu to learn relevant knowledge. If he were a villain, he wouldn't have to go to such trouble, but Zheng Shu feels that he is at least a person with normal morals. Humans, so they still won’t choose to use certain extreme methods.
But judging from Vera's behavior, he should be well-educated and of noble origin. I hope he can be more reasonable...
…
…
On the other side, Vera was also silently recalling the Zheng Shu she met today.
Zheng Shu's guess was actually quite right. Vera's background was quite good, even very good.
He was born in a country with more than a dozen city-states, and the country was considered prosperous. His father had a close relationship with the king of this country, and the two of them were good friends growing up together. His father himself is also the strongest warrior in this country.
In terms of origin, Vera is almost considered to be the top group of people in the entire country.
Moreover, he was born with long golden hair that was exactly the same as the god Apollo believed in by the entire country. Although he came from a prosperous background, he had a good upbringing and was polite to others. Coupled with his handsome face and the knowledge he had specially learned in the palace, Back then, Vera could be regarded as the dream lover of every girl in the country.
…and a handful of men’s dream girls.
But this life was shattered the moment he came of age.
In the year when he came of age, Vera awakened his future vision. Although his future vision could only observe one second after so many years of training, at the moment of awakening, Vera had already learned about himself. death.
As a follower of Apollo, he would eventually die in a place where the sun could not shine.
After learning the cause of his death, Vera could not accept such a death, whether as a young man or as a devout believer in Apollo.
So for a long time, he fell into great fear.
It was okay when the sun was available during the day, but once it was cloudy or at night, he had to spend the night in Apollo's temple. If he accidentally encountered a sudden rainstorm on the way out, he would even cry in fear.
At the most serious time, Vera did not even dare to leave the Temple of Apollo, for fear that she would die if she left.
In the end, his father couldn't stand his son's cowardly attitude, so he rushed to the temple and slapped him dozens of times in front of the statue of God Apollo, thus saving him from the abyss of fear.
After that, Vera became more passionate about life than before, because for him now, every extra day he lives is earned and a gift from the gods.
Under the pressure of death, he discovered the beauty that he had never seen in life before. In the end, in order to allow himself to see more things during his lifetime, he ignored the opposition of his family and resolutely left the country that completely believed in Apollo, and stepped out of the world illuminated by Apollo.
So without knowing it, Vera had been traveling outside for several years.
But to be honest, even Vera, who thought she was well-informed, felt a little incredible the moment she saw Zheng Shu.
To be honest, Vera has seen a lot of human nature during these years of traveling: violence, greed, lust, complacency, pride, humility, kindness...
Especially in those heroes, the shortcomings and advantages of human nature will be infinitely magnified in them.
But in Zheng Shu, he felt an unprecedented strange atmosphere.
To be honest, the first meeting between the two people was by no means friendly. Because of a certain guy who was too stupid, the atmosphere between the two parties could be called tense at first.
But even so, Vera still believed in the first impression formed by relying on his own intuition - that was the reward given by his fate after seeing through death.
And the impression Zheng Shu gave him was...crazy.
It feels like a ball of extreme, unstable and violent energy that will explode at the slightest disturbance or influence.
If it were just pure madness, it wouldn't interest Vera, because there are too many crazy people in this world. What interested him the most was that amidst the madness, Zheng Shu had another emotion deep in his heart: pity.
These two personality traits, which are almost completely opposite in theory, are now concentrated in one person.
Vera discovered from the very beginning that Zheng Shu looked at people completely differently from others.
No matter who he faced, whether it was a civilian or a hero, he was curious and not afraid. He was neither inferior nor arrogant, just very... calm.
Therefore, Vera judged that Zheng Shu should have received an excellent education and was once a noble of a very high status, because only in this way would he always look at others equally.
But beneath this appearance, Zheng Shu's heart was full of danger.
His mind was filled with hesitation, and after hesitation came madness. Just like those miserable subjugated people that Vera had seen before, they wandered around the world, lost their faith and morals, and became more and more crazy and depraved in despair and hesitation. In the end, those people will It became very extreme and hysterical.
Because for them, this world has long lost their place in life - they have no home.
Zheng Shu gave him a very similar feeling to those who had subjugated their country, even more so. It's just that his own willpower is strong enough to control his mental changes and decline, but Zheng Shu's own mental state is still very unstable, and drastic changes will occur with the slightest stimulation.
"I need to observe him well. If possible, I want to know his story." Vera's body sitting on the bed was as straight and straight as a sculpture, but his eyes shone with a different light.
In a sense, Vera is a true "desperate".
After he broke through the fear of death, the only thing that could drive his activities was the exploration of the unknown. The appearance of a "treasured" existence like Zheng Shu in front of him would naturally trigger his desire to explore.
"But if you want to know his story, it will definitely touch the pain in his heart," Vera frowned in thought.
In essence, he is still the noble warrior of the kingdom, and does not like to use overly drastic and unethical means to influence others, so this matter can only be done slowly.
However, Zheng Shu's background seems to be quite noble. I hope he can be more reasonable than ordinary civilians...
So, Zheng Shu, what kind of person are you?
…
…
"What? Missing?"
Zheng Shu looked at the village chief in front of him in confusion. He had just woken up and heard a major news.
"Yes, half of the hero group disappeared that night, including their leader Duer." The old village chief touched the sweat on his face with his hand, his expression looking very anxious.
After what happened, the remaining heroes became extremely restless, and their village might be destroyed by them if they were not careful.
In desperation, the village chief had no choice but to seek Zheng Shu's help. The reason why he came to seek his help was probably because Zheng Shu let the villagers know that he was a good person when he rescued the villagers that day.
Zheng Shu frowned. Although he slept deeply last night, he did not relax his vigilance, but Lingjue did not mean any warning at all.
After thinking for a moment, Zheng Shu simply picked up the mace beside him and walked out of the room.
As he approached the open space where the banquet was held last night, Zheng Shu had already heard various noises coming from there. It is not difficult to hear from the voice that not only the heroes, but also the villagers themselves seem to be worried all the time.
After all, even the heroes who were extremely powerful in their eyes were missing. If the enemy found them, the villagers didn't think they could hide away.
"What exactly happened?" Zheng Shu saw Vera in the crowd at a glance, walked straight to him and asked.
The surrounding heroes and villagers immediately became quiet after seeing Zheng Shu coming. Zheng Shu had already proved his strength last night, so after something like this happened, they must hope to rely on the strong.
"Durr and more than a dozen heroes disappeared in one night. We checked his room and found no signs of a fight, and neither weapons nor luggage were taken away, indicating that they did not leave suddenly on their own." Vera described it very well. In detail, it looks like he has already observed the scene.
"So is there any special discovery?" Zheng Shu asked.
"Not sure..." Vera looked hesitant, "You also know that I learned a little knowledge from a wizard, so I can feel a strange energy breath in their room, but this breath is very strange. It’s not the normal magic fluctuations seen.”
"Take me to see it!"
Vera also decisively led Zheng Shu to the place where they were stationed before. Zheng Shu took a look and saw that it was the few remaining stone houses in the village. Compared with the house where Zheng Shu lived, these stone houses It's bigger, and there are more people living in one room inside.
"That's it." Vera pointed to the two largest houses in the center. "Last night, everyone who lived in these two houses disappeared. I live in the house next to it, but But I didn’t feel any movement.”
Zheng Shu took a look and found that the distance between the house where Vera lived and the two houses where the accident occurred was not too far away. The farthest distance was only about ten meters. For heroes like them with keen senses, this distance was completely close to their faces. Face.
Not to mention an enemy attack, even if people in the house come out to use the toilet, they will be discovered by people in several other houses.
Zheng Shu looked strangely at the two houses where the accident occurred, because he felt a familiar atmosphere inside.
After walking in and taking a look, Zheng Shu didn't find any special clues.
Just like Vera said, their luggage and weapons had not been touched, and even their money bags were well placed. It looked like they simply went out for a few walks and were about to come back.
"What kind of situation is this? This group of people can't be too bored, so they sneak out to play quietly at night, right?" Zheng Shu was a little confused.
When he walked out of the room, he saw the villagers surrounding him. Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He turned to look at Vera, who had been standing behind him: "Have the villagers suffered any losses?"
