Arcane Journey

Chapter 386 Candlekeep
At first, Brian was very willing to agree to Jinlong Ghost's request.

After all, if you get a follower who has lived for thousands of years for no reason, or an ancient golden dragon whose strength has reached the legendary realm, as long as you are not a fool, I am afraid that you will readily agree.

But Brian was not dazzled by this sudden gain. The moment he calmed down, he thought of a possibility.

For example, will this ancient golden dragon take advantage of the opportunity of staying in the Austrian fire, and finally take this proud thing as its own.

Originally, he still didn't really believe that the other party would do this, because the golden dragon was born with the dragon of the lawful and good camp, and would never do anything against his camp.

However, the golden dragon in front of him has long lost his strong physical body, and is just a ghost. Who knows if he has been trapped here for nearly a thousand years, and whether this will completely distort his character and make him degenerate into an evil ghost.

"Hmph, I knew you would think so." Seeing Brian's expression gradually turning from joy to worry, Jin Long said angrily, and then, the words he said dispelled his inner worries:

"The current me is just a ghost that has lost my body. Once I leave the scope of the library, I will disappear immediately. That's why I need a special item that can reside in the soul before I can leave this place, and your flame is very important to me. Words, is the most appropriate.

The energy contained in it can make me strengthen my soul, and I can help you manipulate it more skillfully, and even gain a deeper understanding of it, and assist you to study the secrets of how to improve it. After all, I also master the flame Legendary spellcaster of the power of law.

Of course, if you are worried that I will steal my achievements and take this flame as your own, you can sign a master-servant contract with me. "

"There is no need for a master-servant contract." Brian shook his head slightly. After the other party's explanation, his worries gradually disappeared.

Of course, this is not to say that he blindly chooses to believe the words of the ancient golden dragon ghost, but because he believes in his own Austrian fire.

Because this Austrian fire traveled to this game world with his own soul, the ability to control it is by no means something that anyone can take away casually.

If the ghost of the ancient golden dragon chooses to live here, he can make the other party die instantly with just one thought, which is more reliable than the so-called master-servant contract.

In this case, he would naturally not seek further distance, or add an extra insurance procedure that might create a gap between the two of them.

Moreover, the master-servant contract is not very safe as long as it is signed. In this world dominated by gods, even if his strength reaches the legendary realm, he still has extremely limited knowledge of many powerful and mysterious abilities.

"Since your attitude is so sincere, I don't think there's any need to do anything extra." Brian looked at the ghost floating in front of him like a cloud, and said:
"I promise you to live in my Austrian fire, but you also need to promise to impart all the knowledge you have, and obey my orders. If you can do what I ask, then in the future One day, if there is a chance, I don't mind letting you go to find a new soul container."

After listening to the words of the legendary spellcaster, Golden Dragon Paralandasque secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and his gaze towards Brian gradually softened a lot.

Although his original purpose was to use this flame to help him leave the library, it didn't mean that he could sell his soul casually.

However, after he witnessed the magical essence contained in that flame, his heart was moved.

At that time, he was thinking, as long as the mage is willing to let himself live in this flame, even if he becomes the other party's entourage or servant, it's no big deal.

After all, as a giant dragon whose strength has reached the legendary realm, the knowledge he has mastered for thousands of years allowed him to instantly see the mystery of this flame, and even see through several characteristics contained in the flame.

This made him immediately realize that the reason why the mortal sorcerer in front of him was able to master magical products beyond the rules of magic was definitely because Mystra, the goddess of magic, opened the back door for him.

For a spellcaster who even trusts the goddess of magic, what reason does he have to doubt the other party's character?

Therefore, Palarandasque immediately made up his mind to follow this mortal mage in the name of living in the Austrian Fire, and comprehend the mysteries of magic at close range.

As for whether the other party feared that he would take this flame as his own, it was because he looked down on the character of his ancient golden dragon too much.

This is also the reason why he wants you to sign a master-servant contract.

It's just that what Paralandasc didn't expect was that the other party rejected the request after a little thought.

An ancient golden dragon is willing to sign a master-servant contract with him, but he still doesn't accept it. This is too much contempt for the dragon, am I that bad?

But after thinking about it, Palarandasque is not a cheap bone. He insisted on signing a master-servant contract with the other party. When he understood the intention of this mortal mage, he was obviously relieved.

Not only did the other party trust him very much, he did not sign a master-servant contract with him at ease, but also promised to give him freedom in the future, which made Paralandasque, who had been trapped for nearly a thousand years, gradually agree with this master.

Originally, he planned to keep a certain distance from the other party, and then after he used the power of this mysterious flame to research a new secret method, he would find an opportunity to get out of control.

After all, as an ancient giant dragon that has lived for thousands of years, even if he signed a master-servant contract with him, he can find a way to regain his freedom with the help of the platinum dragon god Bahamut.

This is not difficult for him.

Now, the other party did not take this opportunity to persecute him, and of course Paralandasc would not hide his secrets or hide anything from him.

Naturally, Brian would not think of the thoughts in the dragon's heart.

After the two reached a tacit understanding and each nodded in agreement, the golden dragon Paralandasc did not hesitate at all. The huge light golden body quickly disintegrated into a cloud of mist, and then turned into strands of golden flames, which merged into his Austrian fire. among.

Immediately afterwards, Brian received a system prompt:
"Ding, the ghost of the ancient golden dragon Paralandusk becomes your follower."

"Ding, your arcane fire has a new change."

…………

Seeing this, Brian's expression changed, and he immediately looked at the Austrian fire suspended in midair.

With the arcane flame flickering gently like a candle, ripples rippled in the air, and Brian saw a miniature golden dragon in the flame center of the arcane flame, lifelike.

He immediately checked the additional attributes of Arcane Fire:
1. Flame Amplification: The ancient golden dragon Paralandasque was a legendary mage who mastered the power of the law of fire. His soul has an extraordinary affinity for fire. Effect increased by 15%.

2. Supernatural ability: Smash evil (1 day/3 times)
3. Nine-ring spell: Nonar Fireball (1 day/1 time)
4. Legendary Spell: Dragon Flame Breath of Paralandask (15 days/1 time)
Remarks: Arcane Fire has integrated the soul of the ancient golden dragon Paralandusk. As a powerful true dragon, it has many unknown possibilities.

…………

Seeing this, Brian nodded in satisfaction.

He really didn't expect to get such an effect after fusing the golden dragon's ghost.

Not only did he obtain a legendary spell that could be released every half a month, but he even mastered the paladin's housekeeping skill "Evil Breaking Slash".

This made him realize that this golden dragon was not only a legendary mage, but also a paladin of the platinum dragon god Bahamut.

Otherwise, he wouldn't let his Austrian fire accidentally possess these abilities along with his fusion.

When Brian took the Austrian fire into his body, the idea of ​​the Golden Dragon Paralandusk conveyed to his mind with a sense of intimacy:
"In the future, if you need help, you can order it through the mind link at any time. When you face enemies you can't deal with, I will give you long-range magic support."

He said, "For example, the only legendary spell I have researched, "Palarandask's Dragon Flame Breath", can be released once after accumulating half a month's energy, allowing you to experience the power of our real dragon breathing out the dragon's breath." Pleasure, as well as my paladin's ability "Evil Breaking Slash", and my best attack method "Nonar Fireball". "

Palarandusk's explanation made Brian ask curiously, "Why are there only so few spells, shouldn't it be possible to release any spells that have been mastered?"

Facing Bryan's inquiry, Jin Long's thoughts were silent for a moment, and then he said helplessly:

"I would like to, but my body is gone. When casting these spells, I can only rely on your body. Although I used to be a legendary spellcaster, my profession is closer to that of a warlock. The spells all come from Bloodline, now your body is my medium for casting spells, how many spells I can release depends not only on the strength of my soul, but your physical fitness also plays a vital role."

Bryan nodded slightly, probably understood what Jin Long said.

As far as he knows, an ancient golden dragon's physical attributes start at least 30 points. With his current small body, it is indeed impossible to act as the opponent's spell-casting medium for a long time.

"So, if you want to unlock more postures from me... oh, no, more spells, you must exercise your body well." Jin Long said with a smirk.

Obviously, this guy obviously said the wrong thing on purpose.

Brian didn't bother to answer the other party's ridicule. After calming down and thinking for a while, he asked about the madman Ogasila again.

Although he had helped the elves of Evereska solve the difficulties and freed Ogasila, he still had a few doubts in his heart that he didn't understand.

For example, how did Felin Mokui come here, and how was Ogasila caught by Felin Mokui and so on.

In the face of his inquiry, Palarandusk seemed to be very patient and told the story of what had happened here. There was a sense of joy in his relaxed words, and he seemed to enjoy this feeling very much.

This also made Brian gradually understand the ins and outs of the whole incident.

It turned out that after Ogasila found the relics of the floating city of Glory City, she did not find a way to lift the curse as she imagined.

Because although the Mythar Energy Core of Guangyao City still retains a sliver of divine power from the sun god Amaunata, the periphery is surrounded by a chaotic magic power.

It is absolutely impossible for Ogasila to use this power.

When she was desperate, relying on her only sliver of reason, like Brian, she accidentally found the library guarded by the golden dragon Paralandasque.

This golden dragon, who has been trapped for nearly a thousand years and yearns for freedom, deliberately told Ogasila that in order to get out of the trap one day, he must use the magic vortex cast by Felin Mokui to obtain the divine power of the Miser energy core. , to clean up the surrounding chaotic magic power.

Thus, Ogasila came to the Sharon Forbidden Wall that sealed the Felin Mokui.

But after coming here, Ogasila discovered a strange phenomenon. At some point, cracks appeared on the wall that sealed the ancient monster.

Faced with this situation, relying on her strong willpower, she resolutely left this place without being affected by the mad curse.

Obviously, not only did she give up the idea of ​​using Felin Mokui to help her, but she also planned to tell the people living in the Evereska Valley about this matter.

However, what Ogasila did not expect was that when she left the Forbidden Wall of Sharon, an Elder Mokui absorbed the crazy energy emitted by her due to her unexpected visit, and then the Elder Mokui used this As a medium, he spent a huge price and broke through the Sharon Forbidden Wall.

At this time, Elder Mokui was extremely weak, so he naturally didn't dare to act immediately.

He followed Algasila all the way to the ruins of Glory City, and when the other party was trying to get rid of the chaotic magic power of Mithr's core through other magic rituals, he suddenly launched a surprise attack on her.

Elder Mokui's attack not only interrupted Ogasila's ceremony, but also successfully absorbed the cursed mad soul, so as to restore his damaged strength.

The accident happened again, and the Elder Mokui, who thought he was done, found desperately that after he absorbed the soul of Ogasila, the crazy curse that the other party had suffered was transferred to him.

This made him have to find a way to purify the curse by absorbing the remaining divine power in the core of Mithr energy.

But Felin Mokui was born as a monster of the evil camp, and the remaining divine power of the sun god Amaunata had a natural repelling force on him, so that he had to gradually transform at a slow speed.

When Brian and his group came to Guangyao City, they saw that Elder Mokui had already developed a new method to absorb divine power and purify the curse in his body with the help of the mystical power of the Evereska Valley.

"Then do you know if Guangyao City hides the temple of the sun god Amaunata, or the holy grail of Amaunata." Brian asked again.

"The temple has already been turned into ruins with the fall of Amagna Tower. As for the Holy Grail of Amagna Tower..." Golden Dragon pondered for a moment, then said, "I do know where it is, but I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult to find it."

"Where is it?" Brian asked calmly.

He had seen traces of the Holy Grail of Amaunata in Ogathra's vision, and at this moment, he could use the mouth of Paralandasque to verify the authenticity of the prophecy.

"'Earth Prophet' Acindor may know its whereabouts, but to find him, I'm afraid it will be dozens of times more difficult than finding the Holy Grail of Amanatta."

Jin Long sighed and said slowly:

"As far as I know, in Faerun Continent, only the books stored in Stove Fort may contain some information about the 'Earth Prophet'."
