Elizabeth mouthed to Rosalie, "I told you not to get so close!"
Rosalie also turned into a lip-reading master: "Where did you yell? Some people can't get a seat and are crying."
Nini looked back and forth at the two of them in confusion.
Wang was completely oblivious to all this and just studied the pattern for a full ten minutes.
Finally, he sat down and sighed, "I don't recognize this pattern. I don't remember any orc tribe using this pattern as a symbol, and my teacher's diary didn't mention such a pattern. This should have appeared after my teacher left this plane."
Flint: "That is to say, this is something that has only appeared in the last few hundred years. But it has been recognized by the orcs."
Wang: "Yes, this is the strange part. I think it would be interesting to explore why the orcs like this thing. Map!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at the huge sandbox that occupied the largest space in the huge captain's room.
Xiaobai: "This sandbox is so fun. I can turn into a beetle and crawl on it. It feels like I'm walking all over the earth."
Flint: "That's the way you play. Even if we use the shrinking magic, we can't shrink that small."
The king had already reached the edge of the sand table. He looked at the next path and shook his head: "No, there are no orc settlements along our way. There were desert orcs in Catalai, but they were destroyed by the hero of Catalai. It seems that we have no chance to solve the mystery of this flag."
Elizabeth soothed him, "Look at it in a positive light. Maybe the mission of saving the world will be completed when we reach Isonzo? Then we can accompany you to the wasteland and explore the secret of the orc flag."
Flint: "I agree! If the journey to save the world ends at Isonzo, then this journey to save the world is too short and ends before we can enjoy it to the fullest."
Nini: "I also want to continue learning magic from my teacher. Now I have only mastered my first magic trick, the flash, but for me this is already a huge improvement from 0 to 1."
Marika, the drow elf, glanced at her theoretical nemesis, the forest elf, and said teasingly, "Your way of thinking is becoming more and more like your teacher. This is also an improvement from 0 to 1."
Wang: “Isn’t this a good thing?”
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent.
Nini broke the silence: "Yes, this is a good thing."
Xiao Bai: "It's over. The smart guy needs a smart guy number two."
Nini: "No, I think I should be more flexible than the teacher."
Wang: “I think I’m also very good at adapting.”
Silence fell again.
Rosalie tried to smooth things over: "Okay, let's not talk about this issue anymore. Let's take a look at the itinerary below. With a favorable wind, it will take us three days to leave Monrovia, and then we--"
Her finger landed on a very obvious landmark on the sand table.
Those are two huge human-shaped sculptures.
King: "The Morado Valley Arch was built using the remains of two golems left over from the Nerenis Rebellion in the First Age."
Elizabeth opened her mouth wide. "Oh! I remember this. In Langdon City, the Emperor's Archmage came to us under the pretext of looking for Nelenis's ring."
King: "Yes, I told you at that time that the remains of two of the five golems that Nelenis wanted to activate were changed into the starting points of the borders by the Human Empire of the Second Epoch. These two are the ones.
"During the Second Age, the border of the human empire was here. At that time, the plains of Monrovia were all inhabited by various monsters and non-human races."
Rosalie: "It seems that the scope of human activities has been expanding."
Flint: "Don't bring up this kind of fact. The era of dwarves and elves is over. Next is the era of you short-lived people. Whether it is orcs or humans, it depends on the result of your fight."
Xiao Bai stared at the two stone statues for a few seconds, and suddenly asked: "So is it possible for these two golems to move now?"
Wang: "It will be very troublesome if they start to move. These two golems are originally colonization machines from other planes. They will destroy all creatures in our plane and then start to reproduce."
Xiao Bai was shocked: "Reproduction - does it mean giving birth to children? Can golems give birth to children?"
Wang: "Of course, these golems are divided into male and female. I just don't know whether these two are male or female."
Xiaobai looked at the king, then at the golems on the map: "How interesting! Can we make them move so I can see how they reproduce."
King: "They will destroy you first. And these two golems should have been completely destroyed. In the First Age, Nerenis's ritual was destroyed by adventurers at that time. The golems were not fully activated and their combat power was not complete, so they were destroyed by adventurers.
"When the human empire of the Second Era made them into gatekeeper statues, they also completely reconstructed the structure inside. They can't move them anyway."
Flint suddenly burst into laughter.
Wang: “Why are you laughing?”
"I just think that according to the rhythm of the general adventure poem, they will definitely move after you say that. Fortunately, we are not in an adventure poem."
Wang scratched his head: "But we will definitely become the protagonists of an adventure poem in the future... They - won't move, right?... Why don't we stop and take a look at them when we pass by them, to make sure they won't move."
Everyone looked at each other.
Xiaobai: "I think we'll find the puzzle up there!"
Wang: "If there is any, just unlock it. It's always good to get equipment to enhance our strength. After all, when we get to Yisongzuo, we may have to face the cult directly."
Chapter 143 Things to be aware of when traveling to hot areas
Afterwards, the group chatted in the captain's room for a while, and Xiaobai suddenly shouted, "It's hot!"
Wang tilted his head: "It shouldn't be. Strictly speaking, this is a different space, so the heat from the original plane can't reach this space. You can see that other people don't sweat much."
The king said as he looked towards the ladies.
Elizabeth was wearing a dress with a wide collar as usual, and there was indeed no sweat on her secondary sexual characteristics.
Rosalie was wearing a tightly wrapped maid outfit, and there was no sweat stain on the clothes.
Nini was wearing a maid outfit that was not tightly covered at all, and there was no sweat on her exposed skin.
Marika - It took the king a while to find Marika sneaking in the room, and of course, she was not sweating at all.
Wang: "In this case, you don't need to sneak, right?"
Marika spread her hands and said, "I'm not sneaking. I just stay in the shadows out of habit. It's just that my skin is a protective color in the shadows. This is still daytime. At night, as long as I don't smile, I'm basically sneaking in places outside the light."
Elizabeth asked in confusion: "Why do you emphasize 'as long as I don't laugh'?"
Marika: "Because the teeth are white, my princess."
Rosalie: "I am also a princess. Shouldn't I make the distinction in the future?"
Marika just shrugged.
"What does shrug mean?" Rosalie demanded.
Xiao Bai interrupted their conversation loudly: "I'm hot! I'm so hot! Dacongming, please think of a solution!"
As she said this, she lay down on the ground.
"Oh, the ground is quite cool." Xiaobai said and started rolling on the ground.
Wang: "As I said just now, this cabin is equivalent to an alternate dimension. If we use a spell to create some ice crystals here, it will be even cooler."
As he said this, he spat into his palms twice, and then cast the ice arrow technique.
He shot an ice arrow directly onto the desk next to the sand table. In theory, this spell should have broken and caused a range of ice damage, but because Wang precisely controlled the force of the ice arrow, it did not explode.
Wang: "As long as there are enough ice arrows like this, the whole room will be as cool as the autumn in Kusania."
Xiaobai got up and ran over, stretched out his hand to feel around the ice arrow, and then complained loudly: "This is not cool!"
Wang: "That's because the amount is too small. I don't have the fourth ring of ice storm. Otherwise, I can put it here for a while. It should be able to keep this room cool for a few days."
Flint seemed to be reminded by Wang's words, so he asked, "You should have mastered two fourth-level spells. I know one is Phantom Killer, and what about the other one? According to what you said before, it should be a Shaping system."
Wang: "Yes, in the process of directing energy to Elizabeth, I understood the key to directing energy, so I fully understood the spell of Energy Explosion. Although I haven't tried to perform it yet, I think I should be able to perform it successfully."
While talking, Xiaobai pulled out the icicle that was stuck on the table and ate it with a crunch.
"Oh!" she yelled, "it's cold! Oh, my head hurts."
Wang: "This happens when you eat too much ice."
At this time, he noticed that all the other women were staring at Xiaobai with inexplicable eyes.
"What happen to you guys?"
Elizabeth: "That cone of ice was cast using your saliva as a spell material, right?"
Wang: "Really? Oh, you are thinking about this, it's different, the saliva is used as a casting material to activate the spell, but this is a spell of the conjuration system, so the ice arrow is actually summoned by the conjuration spell, not composed of my saliva."
Elizabeth suddenly realized: "Is that so!"
Rosalie: "Someone let it go."
Xiaobai: "I'm still hot, Dacongming, please think of a solution!"
Wang pointed at Xiaobai: "Freeze ray!"
This is a cantrip-level spell, so the wizard can cast it as many times as he wants every day, with no limit on the number of times.
Xiaobai: "Ohhhh, so cool! Wait a minute, I feel like I'm frostbitten."
Wang: "That's nonsense. Cryo-rays are harmful anyway."
Xiaobai: "Rejuvenation! All right! Keep shining the freeze ray on me!"
Wang sighed, "I'll be exhausted if I do this. Let me think of another way... Well, Xiaobai, how high can you fly when you transform into an animal?"
Xiaobai: "If I turn into a black and white vulture, I can fly very high, but that bird is too ugly. I like the handsome white-headed sea eagle. Besides, it's too cold to fly too high."
The king snapped his fingers and said, "Well, let's use a wooden barrel for wine, fill it halfway with cream and butter, and you turn into a black and white vulture and fly it to the highest altitude for a circle. Then when we come down, we will have some cold drinks to cool us down."
Xiaobai: "You want me to do it?"
Wang: "Aren't you hot? It's cool now that you're in the sky. You can still have some ice cream to cool down when you come back. This way you don't have to beg me, just do it yourself and you'll have enough food and clothing!"
Xiao Bai thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense. Come on, let's get started! Can we really get some ice? I turned into a black and white vulture and flew high in the sky. It was just a little bit cold."
Wang: "That's because you have fur. Besides, the black-and-white vulture is also adapted to the high-altitude temperature. It's a piece of cake for it. Rosalie, bring the bucket!"
Rosalie: "Do you really treat me like a maid?"
Wang: “What else?”
Elizabeth gloated and added, "Yes, what else?"
Rosalie: "Okay, I'll get the barrels and the cream. Can we just use the beer barrels on the ship?"
Flint: "Wait a minute, our ship just set sail, all the beer barrels should be full, where are you going to find empty barrels?"
Rosalie: "Why not just pour a bucket?"
