The gentle mechanical anthropomorphic voice described it.
Hero's consciousness took control of his body again, but the pain still stimulated his brain, and it felt like a needle pricking his brain.
Where is this place?
A medieval-style log cabin tavern?
'Crash'
kindness? Are there chains on your feet?
Looking at everything that was both familiar and unfamiliar in front of him, Holo couldn't help but murmured: "Is this time traveling into the game?"
I guess so.
Originally, Helo was loading Xuangu Company's new game [Soulmancer] and simultaneously opened [Interstellar Miner]. Who knew that they were obviously games produced by the same company, but there was a system conflict, causing an explosion.
Holo was slightly stunned.
A stream of strange and familiar memories kept flooding into my brain.
Not just Holo's own, but also the memory of the original body.
The slightly groggy brain gradually recalled the official website expansion pack that I had seen not long ago.
Magician...soul circuit...soul energy...soul beast...the terrifying deep sea.
Memory fragments interspersed in Holo's complete consciousness, giving him a slightly complete understanding of the current situation.
[Soul Magician] In the game, the soul needs to be awakened so that it has a unique soul circuit. This is the path to becoming a magician.
Each magician's soul circuit is unique, which greatly enhances players' freedom, diversity and playability.
In the Atlanta Empire where Holo is currently located, there are thirteen holy land towers, which govern all the magicians in the empire, with different abilities, unpredictable weirdness, and all kinds of strange soul beasts.
All these things made Hero full of awe and curiosity about this world.
The noisy voices in his ears drew his attention away from his memories.
The location of the arrival in the early stage of the game is generally random, and only a few European emperors can directly arrive in the imperial capital of Atlanta.
But the picture in front of him made him feel that his face was really dark!
It was raining heavily outside, hitting the window sill, and the splashing water droplets hit Holo's face. The gloomy weather reflected the terrifying atmosphere in the tavern.
The drinkers in the tavern have more or less reflective scales on their exposed skin.
No one is normal!
"Uncle Green...why are you looking at me?"
Fortunately, Hero reacted and remembered the identities of the drinkers.
They were the natives of Black Forest Port, citizens recognized by the empire, not the monsters he imagined.
"Hero, a group of magicians from the Imperial City came to the port. Are you curious? How about I give you a day off, but there is a lot of work in the tavern. You seem to be unable to leave, hahaha, but when the rain stops, you can It’s time to go work on the fishing boat!”
The leader was the bar owner Green. He saw Hero stumbling around wiping the tables and chairs and laughed. The surrounding drinkers seemed to be used to this scene and laughed together.
Holo was thinking with his head down.
"Soul Master?"
Can we meet him so soon?
He learned about it in the expansion pack.
Soul magicians account for a small proportion of the empire's huge population. Even at the beginning of the empire's establishment, the title of knighthood must be granted to a formal magician.
This regulation has been passed down to this day, which also makes the current strength of magicians based on the rank of Duke Bozinan. As for those below the baron, they are collectively called magician apprentices.
The huge population base allows the empire to produce many apprentices with soul circuit qualifications, but it is not certain whether the apprentices can break through the boundaries and achieve titles after receiving systematic teaching from the Holy Land Tower.
Before that, in Helo's original memory, he had never seen a magician in the port, not even a magician's apprentice.
The reason is very strange.
Legend has it that the souls of the aborigines in the port have long been infected by the deep sea, making them unable to awaken their soul circuits.
The only extraordinary ability that Holo had ever seen was the Deep Sea Sacrifice Technique that was occasionally used by port people.
But it only allows the coolie to add some strength, heal some minor injuries, and attract fish from the offshore for easy fishing.
In my memory, the aunt at the inn next door almost passed away just by using these sacrificial techniques!
Naturally, these useless deep-sea sacrificial techniques cannot be compared with the power of the legendary magicians.
The natives of the port cannot awaken, and the noble magician will not personally come to this fishy borderland.
Naturally, he has never seen it once.
Hero, who was by the window, turned to look out the window at the dark rainy night:
'It's very strange to say that a magician who hasn't appeared in more than ten years suddenly came here...'
For some reason, he always felt that this heavy rain was a bit unusual. He had an impression that the port was experiencing sudden changes, but he had never encountered such a large amount of precipitation. This amount of water did not rule out the possibility of a tsunami.
Moreover, he secretly sensed that there seemed to be something in the offshore sea watching here in the dark night.
Out of need for security, Hero tried to summon the game board.
【Hero】
【Soul Circuit】(Lock)
【Soul Energy】(Lock)
【Soul Beast】(Lock)
【Soul Arms】(Lock)
【Soul Technique】(Lock)
As expected, there is no button to exit the game.
There is only a bare data panel, which still shows the figure of Holo, with blue eyes, short black hair, a straight nose, and two slender dagger-like eyebrows. However, due to malnutrition, he His eye sockets look extremely deep and gloomy.
Apart from this, the child who is only fourteen years old appears to be extremely handsome.
As for other functions, they are still locked.
'Sure enough, nothing can be changed without awakening the soul circuit and embarking on the journey of being a magician? '
But the next moment, what surprised him was that there was a familiar card slot under the data panel.
The module system in [Interstellar Miner] has also been brought over!
He has been playing this game for three years and is very familiar with the module system.
Modules are mostly produced when enemy forces die, and they have the effect of strengthening the amplitude of the module itself. There are many categories of modules, such as aura, constitution, efficiency, range, etc. There are many options.
However, the module card slot only has twelve positions. Players need to reasonably match the modules according to different situations to achieve the strongest amplitude effect.
But it's a pity that the module library is full of nothing.
A system conflict caused all the modules he had previously saved to be destroyed.
The atmosphere brought by the heavy rain outside the window became more solemn, and Green, who was wiping his wine glass on the bar, also frowned.
Green turned to the drunken drinkers on one side and asked, "Have you prepared enough sacrifices this time?"
The big drinker, who had a rather ferocious face and slightly more scales than the others, looked a little nervous and said softly:
"This time the deep-sea sacrifice came too hastily. The sacrifices are not ready yet. Otherwise, the group of magicians..."
Before the big man could finish speaking, Green stopped him with a stern look.
He turned to Holo and shouted: "Hello, don't clean the table, close the window and wash the cups!"
Hero, who had not adapted to his new identity for a short period of time, was obviously stunned for a moment.
But it was not him who responded to Green.
"Boss! Here are five glasses of pure ale."
The wooden door of the tavern was opened, and five people walked in. Hero recognized them at a glance as the group of magicians.
The unique arrogant expressions of people in the imperial capital and the exquisite and high-end silver-white robes. It was pouring rain outside, but there was not a drop of water on the robes, which made their identities obvious.
After they entered, the originally noisy tavern instantly became quiet.
The five magicians walked to a wooden table near the window and sat down. The two honest fishermen and drinkers who were originally sitting here subconsciously squeezed together, and their hands and feet suddenly felt stiff.
Come on, how could a noble man condescend to come to this fishy tavern and sit on their whip.
Relying on their tenacious will to face the storm on the sea, the two of them stood up shakily and planned to change tables. When they stepped away from the stools, a few drops of ale still trembled from the half-cup of ale in their hands.
Seeing this, Green quickly poured out five cups of pure ale and called to Hero to bring them to several magicians.
"Assistant Mena, I don't drink the wine here!"
The only woman among the five people frowned, and her cold voice was like an icy spring. Everyone in the tavern heard a chill spreading from their hearts to the soles of their feet. It was obviously early autumn, but it was extremely cold.
Of the five glasses of wine that had just been served, one of them cracked in front of Hero. A thin layer of ice condensed on the outer wall of the glass. The exposed and splashed wine did not spill out, but it seemed like a stream of ice from the crack. Pearls fell down one by one, bouncing on the wooden tabletop and floor, making a 'dong-dong' sound.
And just after the wine glass shattered, Hero found several... worms floating next to the sorceress?
Holo glanced slightly sideways.
Worms scattered in front of the sorceress, wandering in mid-air, their bodies emitting a pure white halo.
"You should try the wine here. It's transferred from Winges. It's definitely first-hand. If the ale in the Imperial City is as pure as here, I probably won't bother to come for this semester's mission."
Mena, who looked to be thirty years old, smiled and raised his eyebrows, and his carefully trimmed eyebrows looked a bit dramatic.
When Hero saw his expression, he didn't dislike the environment here like the others, but actually felt happy in it.
Despite Mena's efforts to persuade, only one cup of the remaining four cups of ale liquor was moved from beginning to end.
However, a gold coin with the tallest tower in the imperial capital popped up casually showed that he was particularly generous.
However, Hero didn't move while holding the gold coin, and his expression was slightly awkward.
"Sir, five cups of pure ale cost five gold coins."
"..."
"What you just said is that this is a first-hand puree. I thought you knew the market price..."
This made the cheerful smile on Mena's face gradually solidify, and the other magicians laughed heartily. It was not common for Mena to be embarrassed in the imperial capital, let alone in this borderland.
When did port prices become so expensive?
The drinkers in the tavern also lowered their heads and tried their best not to make any noise.
Mena endured the embarrassment and took out four more gold coins. When he turned his head, he locked eyes with Hero.
He blurted out and asked:
"A child without scales on his face? Isn't he a native of the port? Whose child is this?"
In this port stained with traces of the deep sea, even businessmen from other places will be stained with the traces of the deep sea if they stay for a long time.
As a result, many tourists deliberately avoid staying at the beach for too long. After all, no one knows when they will be stained by the imprint of the deep sea. Even the Grand Master of the Holy Land Tower once visited in person, but found no pattern. .
In this case, this extremely special child in front of me looks weird. After all, who wants their child to be stained with the mark of the deep sea?
And just when Hero was caught in front of Mena.
The translucent worms swimming around the female sorcerer on the side seemed to have found their target.
They swarmed and penetrated his body.
Before he could react, Hero only noticed the reminder flashing under the corner of his eye.
