In the Middle Ages, people drew cards to be promoted to nobility.

The so-called passage is actually a gap between rocks. It is very narrow and covered with moss, allowing only one person to walk sideways.

Anna followed Lothar and suddenly asked: Who is your friend?

I made it up myself.

You actually made it up?

Anna was a little disappointed.

She originally thought that if the plague really got out of control, Lothar's friend might be able to help.

But it sounds like what you said.

Don't forget, besides being the Marquis of Transjordan, I also have another secular identity.

Anna suddenly realized: You mean - the author of The Witcher and Song of Winter and Summer! No wonder you are so good at lying? No, you are not lying at all, otherwise you would not be able to deceive that crazy woman. What do you mean? Is your friend a character in your novel?

So be it.

After getting through the initial difficult stage, Lothar was too lazy to work as a copywriter anymore because he really couldn't make much money.

The printing workshop makes money mainly from hardcover Gwent cards and mass-printed theological books.

The latter took away the jobs of many scribes and clergy in Jerusalem. As a result, even if the printing workshop was guarded by elite soldiers, people would sneak in and try to destroy it from time to time.

There is a dead end ahead, there is no way to go.

Cellinina, who was exploring the path at the front, suddenly turned around and said.

The group of people walked a few steps forward and found that the front was much wider, with a stone wall rising from the ground.

It is indeed a dead end.

Lothar looked at Prajna with a puzzled expression.

Behind the wall.

Prajna is concise and concise.

Anna came to the mountain wall, knocked on it, and frowned: It's solid, and I didn't even detect the slightest breath of magic. Is there a natural cave hidden behind this mountain wall?

Lothar reminded: Don't forget, she has a lot of mice.

By the way, those mice must have the ability to dig out a secret room in the heart of the mountain. This way, it will not be detected by magic and cannot be detected by the naked eye. No wonder she is so confident.

The question now is, how do we get through this wall?

The so-called this wall is actually a mountain wall that is not smooth. No one knows how thick it is. Although the weapons produced by the system are indestructible, it will definitely be a huge challenge to carve out a passage through it. project.

Prajna can sense the direction of the woman's body, but it is impossible to find the path left by the rats when they burrow. Even if it is found, the rat path cannot allow them to pass.

This is indeed a problem.

Anna said a little anxiously: If it is a wizard who specializes in earth magic and can perform earth magic, it is possible to do it, but there are only a few wizards who specialize in earth magic. Where can you find them in a short time?

Although she is somewhat accomplished in space magic, even a space master cannot teleport herself to a place she has never been to.

that.

A small voice came from behind.

Everyone looked at the sound.

The disheveled witch Eve raised her hand uncomfortably and said, I know how to perform magic, but I haven't tried it on others yet.

Anna's face immediately showed an expression of surprise, as if she had discovered a treasure: Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Eve subconsciously avoided everyone's sight and came behind Chelinina: I just called you many times. It's not my fault that you didn't hear me.

Fringilla's eyes widened: So you weren't talking to yourself just now?

This woman has been mumbling for a long time, her voice is as low as a mosquito's hum, and her hair is unkempt and slovenly.

If she had no other choice, she would not want to follow this woman.

Yes, yes, it's not your fault.

Anna came to Eve in one stride and said expectantly: Eve, I know you stay in the library every day for nothing. Try it on me.

This is dangerous.

Eve hesitated.

The danger of earth magic is second only to space magic. If the person who performs earth magic is not good enough, it is likely that the person will get stuck in the earth and rocks and suffocate to death.

Don't worry, I will leave a space coordinate here. If there is any danger, I will teleport it out immediately.

All right.

Eve no longer hesitated and began to chant the spell in a low voice. Although the chanting process was stumbling, an earthy yellow magic aura did appear in her palm, which meant that the spell was at least formed.

A magical aura fell on Anna.

She stretched out an arm and pressed it against the mountain wall. The mountain wall immediately became like water, allowing her palm to penetrate into it.

She turned back and took a deep look at Lothar: Lotha, I'll leave the outside to you. If there is no problem inside, I will come back and let you know.

Do not worry.

Fringilla whispered: What space coordinates? Why don't I feel the breath of space magic?

Lothar had suffered from space spells before. Later, he, Prajna, and Fulin all gained knowledge about space spells and were very sensitive to this aspect.

Lothar glanced at Fulin and shook her head slightly.

It was such a simple thing to arrange a space coordinate in a short time, and the time was tight. The reason why Anna said that was just to comfort Eve.

As for whether Eve noticed it, he didn't know.

The waiting time was excruciating.

Lothar paced in place for a long time before ripples appeared on the mountain wall again. Anna stumbled and fell out of the mountain wall, directly into Prajna's arms.

Thank you.

Anna coughed violently at the ground for a while, spit out a mouthful of saliva mixed with mud, and gave Eve a thumbs up: Eve, you did a good job. I successfully entered the heart of the mountain, where everything is dormant. Rats, the source of the plague is definitely in there.”

Lothar said: Then let's all go in.

Anna looked at Eve: Can you do it?

Maybe

Eve's tone naturally didn't give people much confidence.

Lothar glanced at everyone and said without hesitation: Ms. Eve, please perform earth magic for us.

Okay.

The earthy aura covered Lothar's body, and he could feel that the hard stone walls around him immediately turned into a faint yellow color like quicksand, and there was a feeling under his feet that he could sink in at any time.

Anna reminded: Everyone comes in one by one. Eve, hold on to my hand and let me lead the way. Remember, if you make a mistake in the direction, close your eyes and walk straight ahead. You must leave the rock before the earth magic expires. middle.

Lothar held Prajna's hand tightly. He looked at her and saw a little worry in her expression. He comforted her in a low voice: Don't worry, nothing will happen.

Enter the mountain wall.

Only then did Lothar realize how much risk Anna had just taken. It was impossible to distinguish up, down, left and right here. Even the vertical downward gravity had completely failed, and the whole world was in chaos.

Although I can breathe freely, the strong feeling of suffocation still makes people feel depressed.

Lothar tightly grasped Prajna's hand, and under the pull of the forward force, followed the end of the team and moved forward slowly.

There was a suction under his feet, like stepping into mud, which made him feel extremely heavy every time he lifted his feet.

I don't know how long it took, maybe five minutes, maybe more.

Here, even the concept of time becomes blurred.

A huge force suddenly came from the hand that held Prajna in place. He stumbled, was freed from the chaos, and fell directly out of the mountain wall.

He let out a breath, and for the first time he felt that the smell in the cave that was full of rats and smelled so sweet was actually so sweet.

This is an empty mountainside, which seems to be covered with a carpet of rats, and there are rats everywhere that are full of abscesses.

They have their eyes closed and seem to be sleeping.

Even though the movement of the crowd was not small at all, these rats still did not get into an attack.

Look over there.

Anna suddenly pointed her finger.

I saw that the direction she was pointing was under a cliff in the middle of the mountain.

Astonishingly, there was a woman with a graceful figure.

She was so huge, like a tree of life, entrenched in the middle of the open land under the cliff.

She was still naked, exactly like the woman Lothar had seen before.

But now, her eyes, mouth, nose, ears, and lower parts are all moving regularly.

From it, ugly mice covered in mucus crawled out one after another.

This woman actually turned her body into a production tool that gave birth to plague rats!
