After saying these words, Reya glanced at Raine with her beautiful eyes.
If last night she still had some worries about the rescue mission, then after encountering a large group of goblins on the way, she was no longer worried.
Because when faced with dozens of goblins, Raine jumped off his warhorse, and in just a few seconds, completely crushed the opponent.
Especially the hammer skill that blasted open a large fan-shaped area of the ground in front, leaving her stunned for a long time!
Is this a combat skill that a novice could execute after just a few months of training with hammers?
And with what Elise said about Raineâs mastery of high-power magic.
Reya really couldnât understand how someoneâs strength could improve so rapidly?
Could it really be that some Divine Being had favored him, making Raine The Chosen of God?
Itâs just that this question was too personal, and Reya wasnât comfortable asking.
After a whole day of galloping on horseback, the three of them sat casually in the woodland, took out the already prepared dry rations and began eating, waiting for the sun to completely set.
The location was too close to the castle, so a campfire couldnât be lit, but Reya had prepared some tasty meat pies for everyone.
Raine was enjoying the meat pie whilst looking at the bloodline bar.
Before going to sleep last night, Raine had merged the bloodline of the Gray Dwarf Commander with other Gray Dwarves, and acquired a brand new icon named âHigh-tier Gray Dwarf Commander.â
However, due to the absence of a Gray Dwarf Caster, the High-tier Gray Dwarf Commander only had one additional spell-like ability compared to the Commander â âIntimidating Roarâ!
Intimidating Roar lv1, Effect: You let out a roar that terrifies all nearby enemy targets that hear it, potentially causing them to flee immediately.
Obviously, compared to the combat-hardy Wild Boar Shamanâs condition, thereâs still quite a gap.
This gave Raine the experience that next time an opportunity arises, he should merge Gray Dwarf Caster and Warrior Classes together.
However, locating a Gray Dwarf Caster wouldnât be easy and might require venturing into the Underdark.
If before, the idea of going to the Underdark was just a vague thought for Raine, then after checking Gray Dwarf Commander Thorneâs pouch last night, this matter became traceable.
The pouch not only contained a magic scroll recording the Second Level spell âInvisibility Spell,â but most importantly, inside was a hand-drawn map.
The map, though somewhat rough, was still clearly identifiable, tracing an underground river down from the Azure Mine for several miles, then turning down after passing a grotto, where there was a continued downward hidden tunnel.
Crossing the tunnel leads to the region adjacent to Dark Furnace City in the Underdark.
But the issue is, aside from a large skull symbol in the middle of the tunnel, there are at least four or five spots marked by small skulls along the way.
Meaning, this route is hidden but fraught with danger.
Raine also realized why, as a Gray Dwarf Clan he encountered, the Dark Furnace Clanâs Gray Dwarves were not very powerful, and there werenât even many of them.
The reason is likely that this perilous, bumpy path to the surface isnât as easily traversed as expected.
However, the existence of this hidden passage gave Raine another chance; once he had enough strength, he could access the Underdark through this hidden path.
Of course, even if he doesnât go, submitting the map to the Adventurerâs Association at the appropriate time would certainly earn a substantial reward.
Additionally, Raine acquired the Two-Handed Warhammer from Gray Dwarf Commander Thorne, and yesterday, after appraisal, its effects were clarified.
The warhammer is named [Thorneâs Hammer], with the words âThorneâs Hammerâ engraved in Dwarven Language on the hammerâs shaft.
The spell solidified is âSecondary Lightning Chain,â with power approximately at First Level Spell tier, capable of attacking three targets at once with a recharge time of about two hours.
If not triggered to activate the âSecondary Lightning Chain,â the stored electrical energy will inflict a certain paralysis effect when attacking the enemy.
Whether itâs âThorneâs Hammerâ or the newly acquired âHigh-tier Grey Dwarf Commander Bloodlineâ related spell-like ability, on the way here, Raine practiced them both on a group of clueless goblins.
Yes, he really only practiced them once.
Because after testing the paralysis effect naturally embedded in the Two-Handed Warhammer, he inadvertently used Vibration Wave, killing more than ten goblins at once.
Unlike Reyaâs urgency to save people.
Besides the rescue, Raine was quite looking forward to encountering the shapeshifter and the possible meeting with the demon warlock.
Needless to say, the shapeshifter, once killed, Raine could almost confirm heâd acquire the spell-like ability to mimic others.
Although not directly combat-oriented, if used well, itâs actually more lethal than a powerful spell, such as transforming into the enemyâs appearance, infiltrating into enemy ranks.
Like if the next step were going to Valley of Dead Water, directly barging in would certainly be dangerous, but if transformed into a Wild Boar Person, wouldnât it be like returning home...
It would be the same if heading to Dark Furnace City.
Regarding the Demon Mage, Raine was pondering a question while on the road.
Is the demon warlock considered a demonic descendant or human?
Simply put, if they can be defeated, would he gain their âMonster Skillâ?
If possible, that would be interesting.
Thinking of this, Raine couldnât help but smile.
