Mages, Adventurers, and Women

"Fina, this is awkward."

Fina was taken aback, then glared at her and said, "Which slut did you sleep with this time?!"

Li Wei squatted down, drew an irregular circle, and said:

"I have no obligation to explain to you."

"We're just lovers, don't make it sound like I'm cheating on you."

"Heh." Fina sneered as she stood up and whispered in Levi's ear, "You scumbag!"

Li Wei readily accepted Fina's praise.

He divided the circular drawing in two from the top, creating an irregular yin-yang symbol.

The left side is divided into two parts, with the upper part connected to the entire right side, encompassing the lower left area.

"Beaver, the great warrior of the Sand Duchy, left behind an autobiography before setting sail, in which he used the word 'island'."

"The Storm Kingdom's great assassin 'Bean' also used the term 'island' in his autobiography before leaving."

"The Archmage Bain of the Golden Kingdom mentions the term 'island' multiple times in his autobiography and in 'The Fundamental Reason for the Integration of the Coastal Regions of the Golden Kingdom with the Sea Clan'."

"I used to wonder, since the Three Kingdoms were all on land, why did they use 'islands' to describe them?"

“The Duchy of Storms and the Golden Kingdom have coastlines, so Bean and Bain might live on small islands along the coast. But the Duchy of Sands is a landlocked country, so Beaver’s use of ‘offshore islands’ doesn’t make any sense. Now I understand…”

Li Wei had guessed the answer before.

It was just too unbelievable. Compared to the vast, ethereal regions described in books, he was in Rolling Stone. It was hard to imagine that the ridiculously large land beneath his feet was actually an "island".

Rolling Stone Town is more than 3000 li away from the nearest territory, the Principality of Mad Sand.

The Principality of Mad Sands is the smallest of the three kingdoms.

It is located in the lower left half of the Taiji, and its only outlet to the sea is blocked by the coastline of the Storm Principality and the Golden Kingdom, which occupies the entire right side of the "Taiji".

The two nations of Sandstorm and Storm have been locked in a bitter dispute over access to the sea, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

The Duchy of Mad Sands was forced to become the only "landlocked country" among the three kingdoms.

Rolling Stone Town is located in the Monster Hills, at the intersection of the three kingdoms, in the very center of the "Tai Chi" shape.

Looking at the map, the Demon Hills are like a mole on the sole of a foot compared to the smallest territory in the Three Kingdoms, the Mad Sand Kingdom.

If scaled up proportionally, the three kingdoms combined would be far larger than "Earth".

Such a vast area is actually an insignificant "island" in the boundless sea?

Li Wei gained a direct understanding of the "vastness" of the Grand Continent.

The reason why criminals from the Three Kingdoms period gathered in Rolling Stone Town has also been explained.

This has nothing to do with the fact that this place is right next to the Monster Hills, a no-man's-land.

Rather, they had no choice.

They either go out to sea or come to Rolling Stone; criminals who stay in the country will only be burned at the hands of the courthouse.

Criminals and unregistered individuals cannot purchase tickets for the airship guild to leave Golden Island.

For many professionals, going to sea on their own is a death sentence.

So many level 3 professionals on Golden Island foolishly abandoned their stable lives to challenge the boundless sea, leaving behind their autobiographies before setting sail.

But no one left behind an autobiography about their return.

"So... what does the Necromancer General's eyes have to do with our location?"

Li Wei continued to push her away, but the woman, like a playful puppy, pounced on him again after being pushed away, clinging to him:

"..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Wei threw him back onto the bed, saying:

"Let's get down to business first."

Fina said with a grin:

Do you know what the dragon race hates most?

“Dragon Knight,” Li Wei said with certainty.

"That's right, it's a dragon knight!"

As Fina spoke, she leaned closer to Li Wei, looking up at his handsome face with its black hair and eyes, and said with a beaming smile:

"The proud dragons cannot accept a lowly creature riding on their heads. The dragon race regards every member of their race who willingly becomes their mount as a traitor."

"They consider themselves the rulers of the Grand Continent, hunting down their enslaved people and dragon knights who insult the dragon race. Only the deaths of traitors and dragon knights can wash away the insults brought to the dragon race by the title of 'Dragon Knight'."

Li Wei also disliked "dragon riders".

He liked the "Dragon Girl" in the folklore picture book compiled by bards.

Big, sexy, fair-skinned, and beautiful.

He pulled Fina off again and threw her onto the bed, then, sensing the unspoken meaning in her words, pressed her for an answer:

"You mean... the Necromancer General is a Dragon Knight?"

Fina beckoned with her finger and said, "Come closer, and I'll tell you."

Li Wei stepped forward.

Fina's eyes lit up.

She said contentedly:

"Every necromancer has an ultimate dream. Guess what it is?"

"Kill all the priests?"

"Wrong! Idiot! That's the necromancer's second dream!" Fina stared intently at Levi's face, licked her lips, and said greedily, "The necromancer's ultimate dream, of course, is to become the master of the bone dragon!"

"Bone Dragon?"

Li Wei asked directly, "Are there bone dragons in Baron Della's castle?"

Fina spoke excitedly about the bone dragon, explaining:

“After I came to Rolling Stone, I kept researching information about the ‘Bone Dragon’ until I discovered that when Rolling Stone was founded a hundred years ago, someone saw a dragon appear, and it eventually disappeared at the location of Baron Della’s castle.”

"Then the pool of necromantic contamination appeared—this is definitely a manifestation of the dragon being homogenized by necromantic elements after its death."

"Oh, by the way, you don't know about element homogenization? Our teacher said..."

“I know, you can continue,” Li Wei said.

"You actually know this?" Fina stared at Levi suspiciously. "Did that stinky woman outside tell you? Is she also a native of the Golden Kingdom? The Duchy of Storms and the Duchy of Sands wouldn't teach this kind of thing in children's schools."

"Fina, do you always talk so much nonsense?"

Li Wei's tone changed slightly.

Seeing Levi's annoyed expression, Fina quickly snuggled into his arms, hugging his waist and pressing against his chest, saying coquettishly:

"Li Wei, don't be angry... I haven't seen you for many days, I miss you, and I want to talk to you more. I'll tell you the rest of the findings now, and I definitely won't veer off to other things."

"What a boring trick," Li Wei thought to himself.

“I used to just guess, but now that I’ve seen the eyes of the Necromancer General, I’m absolutely certain that there are bone dragons in Baron Dela’s castle, and the Necromancer General is a dragon knight. They fled to the remote Golden Island in the northern continent to escape the dragons’ pursuit.”

Fina was worried that Levi wouldn't understand the remoteness of Golden Island.

“My teacher when I was a child said that the boundless sea of ​​the North Continent is divided into three parts: the Whirlpool Sea, the Silent Corridor, and the Furious Sea.”

Fina pointed to the "Raging Sea" and continued, "Golden Island is here."

“My teacher said that there are tens of thousands of islands in the raging sea area, which is divided into nine sea areas. We are in the ‘Lone Sail’ sea area. Compared with the other eight sea areas, the ‘Lone Sail’ sea area is the most remote and barren, with only 376 islands. The size of Golden Island is considered to be below average among them.”

After explaining, Fina chuckled mischievously:

"This dragon knight really knows how to pick his targets. He chose Rolling Stone Town, the most remote town on Golden Island, thinking he wouldn't be discovered, but you gouged out his eyes and forced him to awaken. I guess his original plan was to undergo necromancy assimilation with his dragon mount, and then seal himself away until he was strong enough to emerge."

“Dragon knights have a different relationship with their mounts than other professions. The two are deeply bound together, and even in death, their spirits remain intertwined. Now that the Necromancer General has been forced to awaken, his Bone Dragon mount will also awaken.”

"This explains why the Necromantic Contamination Pool suddenly erupted; it must be the Bone Dragon's doing!"

Li Wei was inspired by Fina.

The combined arcane symbols on the coffin were brought from outside by the Necromancer General?

"Then what's the use of his eyes?"

Li Wei picked up the eyeball from the bed.

Fina rarely showed a serious expression this time:

"It contains half of the Necromancer General's necromancy spells, which you can learn."

"But... you need to have necromancy talent. If you don't, you will be corrupted by his eyes and become a mindless necromancy servant."

"Moreover, once you accept its necromancy inheritance, there is no turning back; you must continue down the path of necromancy."

"why?"

Li Wei asked in confusion.

"Among magic-based professionals, there are two ways to master multi-elemental spells. One is like the 'Necromantic Ritual' that I taught you."

"It doesn't require another type of talent; it's just a regular special technique that doesn't significantly improve your overall strength and won't affect your elemental development."

"Secondly, similar to the current situation, try to completely master another element. If you succeed, you will have the powerful ability to fuse the two elements into one."

"Comparable to a monster's talent advancing from 'White Dragon Level' to 'Black Dragon Level,' possessing the strength to crush single-element magic users of the same level."

“But… like I said, you must have necromancy talent.”

"Moreover, necromancers are not accepted by the general public."

Fina explained earnestly.

[Element Lv1] Grants Livi mastery of all elements, including necromancy.

He didn't care about being discriminated against for mastering necromancy.

In Rolling Stones.

You will be discriminated against if you lack ability.

[Knowledge] and [Exploration] prove the authenticity of Fina's words.

Li Wei couldn't help but think of that bastard, Kleck.

He wanted to monopolize the recommendation slots for the White Tower region held by Lady Frey.

He even planned to use the "Archmage Lasal's Freeze" spell scroll to kill Livy and his five competitors.

now.

He began to understand the thoughts of that bastard, Kleck.

The northern continent is so vast.

The White Tower region is a holy land for magic-based professionals in the Northern Continent, where countless talented magic-based professionals gather.

How much valuable legal resources does it possess?

Li Wei had endless longing and yearning.
