558.Chapter 556: Spring of the 555 Summoner – Minotaur Summoner

Chapter 556 555.Summoner’s Spring of the Minotaur Summoner Freshly Baked

Murphy and the small players ran to fight rats to save the pirates at the same time, Bafengt Palace “Slate Expedition” is also synchronized to promote their work, compared to the number of racial quests advantage, this team has entered the middle of the Bafengt Palace is the quality of the king.

There are two Golds alone!

Grand Duchess Tris herself acted as the psychic core, while Rose Knight Paranor, who always paid attention to perfect grooming, made a cameo appearance in the team’s defense and melee attack.

With these two guys here, it was basically possible to plow the Baphomet Grand Palace from top to bottom hard.

What’s even more outrageous is that these two powerhouses are appearing as auxiliaries tonight, and the nominal leader of this “Slate Expedition” is the chief of the Blood Claw Clan, the skinny jackal Hogg, who has recently risen to prominence in Transylvania!

Poor Hogg, at no time in his short life could he have imagined that he would one day have two golden bodyguards?

Which jackal could have imagined this kind of awesome treatment?
In addition to these three people, there is also the support psychic Winnie Corando Le Sombra from the “Red Magic Museum”, as well as the boss of the Blood Rats gang and the “Queen of the Sewers” Ms. Dorothy, and the last one is called over to meet the world’s astral world summoner touch you poor.

He came here on behalf of the players and his mentor, Lord Murphy.

In front of the quality of this wave of squad, touching your poor is just a pendant.

He himself knew this, basically did not think about fighting, the whole time with the arithmetic treasure beads for the big brothers to take “handsome photos” and in the meantime record the progress of the preparatory stage of this “super mission chain” that has not yet been developed for the player group.

Of course, since the players are called over, even if it’s just a walk-through, there should be a decent task release and rewards.

The reward for this quest is a summoning spell, but it is not his specialized astral summoning, but one of the more complex and larger “otherworldly creature summoning spells”, called Summon Minotaur.

Probably for the sake of the development team to draw a pie, when the crowd entered the labyrinth, the NPC Miss Winnie gave the only summoner among the current players to show the specific form of this summon.

This would touch you poor was staring at the huge creature that was leading the way at the very front of the dimly lit underground labyrinth with a gaze of envy, longing, and want.

It was a minotaur!
It inherited the brawny appearance common to all the minotaurs in fantasy legends, reaching a height of more than 3 meters, with a big waist, muscular, brownish-black skin and even-hoofed beastly heavy hooves, holding an otherworldly double-bladed brass axe that shakes the ground between walks, and a tail that can be flung around as a whip.

The entire head is a standard bull’s head, with large eyes streaked with agitated rage, and a gold ring pierced through the nostrils.

Uh, the only adornment on this body is not the Minotaur’s own, but the “sacrifice” prepared by Miss Winnie when she summoned the Minotaur just now, which is also the “casting material” that must be used for the spell to summon the Minotaur.

This involves an important factor in a summoner’s career path in the middle and late stages.

That is, those high-level summons have their own preferences, the summoner to summon them to the material world is only the first step, want to ask them to serve you have to do the contract at the same time to send a little gift to please people.

Although it is also possible to brute force them to fight for you, this kind of mandatory order can easily lead to the summoned object secretly doing bad things at certain times.

After all, most of the summoner’s spells can’t do 100% control over the summoner, and in this case, getting along with the summoner is a very important part.

The favorite thing of upper-middle level otherworldly creatures like Minotaur is elaborate golden nose rings, the more beautifully crafted they are the more they like it, a golden ring allows the minotaur to serve the summoner until the end of this summoning, that is, until it is killed in the material world.

And Minotaur is not an astral creature, if it dies in the material world it is dead forever.

Therefore, this thing is the true meaning of the “buy life money”, from this perspective, the minotaur to give you life and death as long as a well-made gold ring as a reward, this is already a very conscientious price.

If the minotaur dies and the summoner wants to book a summoning next time, he has to throw the used gold ring into the minotaur’s world and prepare a brand-new gold ring.

Not because Minotaur is insatiable, but because the creature has basic feelings.

They refuse to use the used rings of their compatriots, which are considered “sacrifices”, and if you intend to deceive them, you can easily be recognized and start an unnecessary fight. If they encounter a Minotaur with a gold ring in the physical world, they will go into a rage and attack at once.

Because they feel that those are shameless “grave robbers”.

To sum up, although the Minotaur’s overall combat power is already strong among the upper-middle level summons, it is actually a very troublesome and very cold summon, and few people will specialize in learning this kind of spells.

“This kind of special gold ring has to follow certain requirements that ordinary blacksmiths can’t create, so until your summoning skill level is raised to the point where you can permanently contract a Minotaur, summoning this kind of powerful otherworldly creature is not only a test of summoning skill.

It’s also a test of your wallet!”

During the dungeon walk, Miss Winnie, who was a powerful summoner before joining the Blood Vulture Clan, held up a torch and shared her summoner tips to her “junior brother”, Touch Your Poor, as she spat out:
“And the Minotaur is already considered to be a very ‘cheap’ large-scale summoned object, among the same large-scale creatures, the most expensive is the Jeweled Heavy Armor Scorpion from the Elemental Plane, every time you summon that thing, you need to prepare a natural gemstone with a quality of no less than relic level in advance, or else even if it is summoned out, it will immediately rebel. summoned, it will immediately rebel.

But there’s a reason why it’s expensive! Remember, my little brother, this is a classic quote from the Way of Summoning.

The Gemstone Heavy Armor Scorpion has no fragile flesh and blood, an indestructible shell of elemental gemstones, specializes in melee destruction while also inflicting terrifying elemental poisons on its enemies, and most importantly, it possesses the characteristics of an elemental creature, and is very insensitive to the passage of time.

In other words, as long as you summon the gemstone scorpion and sign a temporary contract with it, you don’t need to waste summoning bits to let it stay in the material world for a long time.

When I was studying Summoning in Grimm’s Island, I heard that one of the Summoning Masters in the Tower of the Ring had a Jeweled Scorpion with a temporary contract, and that guy has been in the material world for seventy-seven years, so it’s no different from a permanent contract if you round it up.

Alas, if not for the fact that my sister and I are in dire straits, I had planned to summon my own Jeweled Scorpion last month.
I was planning on summoning my own Jeweled Scorpion last month, and I had all the materials ready, but it turned out that I had to go back to the past.

Anyway, that thing is expensive, but it really retains its value!”

“Ow ow ow, learned learned learned.”

Touch you poor in the game hang around for so long, but also learned some people, this will hurry to record this “school sister” casually said knowledge, while also asked:
“I just saw that before you summoned the Minotaur, you applied many defensive statuses to yourself, and Mrs. Cuice even specially put a shield on you, why is this? Is summoning minotaurs risky? But I see that this guy is quite naive, he’s very easy to talk to.”

“Well, it’s true that the Minotaur isn’t that kind of brainless monster, it’s peaceful if you don’t mess with it, but the problem is that the Minotaur’s companion beasts aren’t so ‘fun’.”

Miss Winnie sighed, shaking her head like every annoyed older sister who explains the basics to her younger students, and explained:
“There are a lot of strange beasts in the realm where the Minotaur lives, and Minotaur will be accompanied by a kind of Hell Cow, and it’s said that those Hell Cows are the Minotaur’s ancestors, and there’s some strange blood connection between the two sides.

There is roughly a one in three chance that you will summon a raging hellcow every time you use a summoning spell.

The thing itself isn’t a problem, it’s a beast, and nowhere near as powerful as a minotaur, but the trouble is that hellcows have the gift of instant death rays.

The probability of being glared at by it is to ascend to the heavens on the spot, and that spell doesn’t even need to be cast, and although the instant death rate is very low, there are definitely a lot of bad stories in the Summoner’s Ghosts trivia stories I know about unlucky people being glared at by a Hellcow and dying on the spot.

So that being said, even though Minotaur is the cheapest summon in large creatures, basically no summoner would choose to resident this thing as their minion.

So there was a reason why it was cheap!
If I didn’t have to walk the labyrinth this time and have to have Minotaur’s kind of gifted intuition that ignores any labyrinth, I wouldn’t have taken the risk of summoning it.

There’s only one small life, it has to be cherished.

Don’t use this spell indiscriminately when you learn it. It’s easy to get into trouble. Uh, you guys aren’t afraid to die, well, it seems like this spell was probably prepared especially for you.”

“Hmmmmmmmmm, sounds cost effective and entertaining, I think this spell could definitely start a ‘luck contest’ wave among my companions once it slips out.”

Touch Your Poor heatedly smiled and asked again:
“Winnie-senpai, I just heard Mrs. Tris say that the spell to summon a minotaur doesn’t require Summoner’s Knowledge to learn, right?”

“Well, indeed.”

Being called “School Sister” by her polite little brother put Miss Winnie, who wasn’t actually very old, in a good mood, and while directing her Minotaur into the even older looking tunnel ahead, she replied:

“The other dimension where the Minotaur is located is ‘close’ to the material world, and the amount of psychic energy needed to summon them is minimal, so most psychics can learn the spell.

I heard my mentor talk about it when I was learning summoning before.

According to her, it’s because the realm where the Minotaur is located has materially collapsed, and that realm is disappearing, so the creatures in it wish to escape extinction, and they’ll respond to the summoning spell’s call much more positively than creatures in other realms.

The creatures of the Minotaur’s realm also have the least difficulty making permanent contracts.

Basically, if you have enough summoning bits and overpower it in terms of spiritual power you can complete a permanent contract.

But the problem, as I mentioned earlier, is that there’s a problem with the summoning rules of that dying realm, and even after making a permanent contract, you’ll have a probability of summoning a dangerous hellcow every time you summon it.

So compared to them, elemental creatures that can respawn and are obedient are the more cost-effective summons.”

“But if they respond positively to the summoning…” Touch Your Poor said with a frown:
“Wouldn’t that be the same as saying that with enough time and energy and good luck, I could totally mold an army of minotaurs in the material world? They’re all temporary summons that don’t take up contracted positions anyway.”

“Well, in theory that’s true, but you’d also have a hard time summoning the entities to the material world, and risk getting killed by a hellcow, which is too cost-effective unless you can find a natural dimensional rift.”

Winnie shook her head:
“The material world is currently solidly spaced from the other realms, so don’t even think about such a good thing.”

“Hey, have you two finished your summoner trivia class yet? I can’t understand why two professional summoners would be so interested in this kind of common sense?”

Lady Tris, who was walking forward with her Serenade Scepter in hand, craned her head and shouted:

“The minotaur is not advancing!
It’s obviously sensing danger ahead, Winnie, have your summoner take us there, clear the danger and move on.

Hogg, can you sense the location of the tablet?”

“It tells me it’s down there, it’s close enough.”

Hogg, who was very alert with his torch, pointed to his head and answered:

“It says that it can hear the civilization tablet wailing, and it urges us to speed up, saying that there is an evil force defiling the civilization tablet of our jackals.”

Tris nodded and didn’t ask any more questions.

The “it” in Hogg’s words obviously referred to the strange spiritual body of the King of Bone Biters.

Facts proved that Murphy’s speculation without any reason was correct, after entering Baphomet’s palace, the King of Bone Biting that had already “bound” with Hogg became active, and it didn’t even need to dream for it to realize “secret communication” with Hogg.

As the last spokesman of the jackal civilization, the King of Bones can obviously feel the specific location of the civilization tablet, which saves a lot of trouble for this tablet expedition team.

With the general location guide, coupled with Winnie summoning the Minotaur, who would never get lost in a maze, to lead the way, it only took them two hours to successfully approach their destination, but this process made Paranor, who was armed with a mounted spear and a heavy shield, blush with dismay.

The Rose Knight said softly:
“I had thought that these filthy goats would bring the stone slabs into the lower level, but our destination is actually only the middle level of the great dungeon! It seems that the Dusk forces are also unwilling to mess with the Baphomet Cult that is entrenched in the lower levels.

To be treated so cautiously by an evil like the Dusk shows that the Baphomet Cult, which was unappreciated and obscure in times past, has grown to a rather terrifying level.

Even though these goatmen who worshipped the evil gods did not cause killings in the outside world, they were always a hidden danger to the awakening of the ancient evil gods!

If this Black Plague can pass through safely, I reckon that Venerable Lord Paying might launch a major purge against the Baphomet Cult.

It can’t be delayed any longer.

Once those cultists start controlling the entire dungeon, this ancient relic will become a terrifying tumor near the Dark Mountain Range in a matter of moments.”

“Come on, Paranor, there are so many things that can create terror in this great land, and the Baphomet cult is just the most harmless one among them.”

Lady Tris said with a dismissive wave of her hand:

“Just because there are very few evil gods walking around in the present world doesn’t mean there aren’t any, I know there’s a weak one hiding in a halfling’s city, I don’t believe the Venerable Lord doesn’t know about it, he’s just too lazy to care.

What’s more, the Dark Mountains are so big that we’ve lacked knowledge of it for the past thousand years, and compared to the dangers that lurk there, the filthy Baphomet dungeon is akin to an amusement park.

I don’t see the need for Venerable Lord Paying to do it himself, let’s just leave this dungeon to us! Anyway, when the Dark Valley is returned to Transylvania, Little Murphy’s borders will extend to the line of the Barren Mountains, and the entire Filthy Swamp and Baffent Canyon will become our territory.

As the governor, this is also one of the problems Little Murphy needs to solve.”

“Huh! You two are really twisted with each other, Tris.”

The comment made Paranor’s eyes round as he exclaimed:

“I commonly see beautiful people who use their wisdom to solve problems for their loved ones, and this is the first time I’ve seen a goddess who actively solicits trouble for her loved ones, are you sure you’re not drunk?
With the pressure Governor Murphy is currently under, I don’t think it’s a good thing for you to take the trouble of this dungeon into your hands.”

“That’s what you don’t understand.”

Archduke Tris grunted and shrugged her shoulders:

“My little Murphy can’t wait to have one more ‘permanent practicing area’, it’s a featured gameplay in his design, he won’t allow you to destroy it casually, well, it’s just ahead! Prepare to fight!”

With a wave of her left hand, Tris’ serenading scepter whirled around to inflict two or three mind-protecting spells on the group, and the Minotaur who was leading the way in front of their eyes had already bypassed the complicated and cumbersome switchbacks and pinpointed the path to the civilization tablet cache without any hints.

After crossing over a flat stone gate, a strange hollow area appeared in front of the group.

It was like a “hanging tower” hidden underneath a large underground palace.

In the center of the surrounding hundreds of meters deep cliff stood a huge stone pillar, a church-like building at the apex of the stone pillar, a seriously weathered hanging stone bridge, is the stone pillar church and the main body of the large underground palace connected to the only road.

The door of the church was tightly closed.

But Hogg would jam his head as hard as he could and break off in a mournful gesture:
“It it’s right there! Good God, shut up! Don’t howl! I know what to do. Shut up! Don’t take my sanity! I’m not your dog!”

The sight of Chief Bloodclaw clearly fighting for control of his sanity with the King of Biting Bones in his mind made Lady Trixie shake her head as she crouched down and reached out to place a hand on Hogg’s shoulder and whispered:

“Don’t resist, let it out! Hogg, I need to talk to it. Don’t worry, it can’t control you with me.”

“Ow.”

Hogg was trusting Archduke Tris, it nodded with difficulty, took a deep breath to completely relax its mind against it, and in the next second, in the midst of a full body convulsion, another wave of realization floated up to Hogg’s mind.

“Hogg rolled his eyes, looked at the vampire grand duke in front of him, and then let out a burst of strange and sharp laughter, full of arrogance and wildness and an unruly and untamed without needing to hide it, and even had an indescribable “general’s style”.

It waved its claws and pointed to the stone church in front of it, saying:
“The tablet of civilization is there! It was a good idea for you cunning people to try to control the weak Hogs to eliminate the Black Plague! It just kind of sucks.

Go get it.

This Great Lord despises your cunning, but it’s not like we can’t work together.

Get it!
And I’ll tell you what to do to make Hogg the voice of civilization; I’ve failed on behalf of ‘power’, perhaps it’s time to try and get ‘wisdom’ to save the Jackals as well.”

“Murphy gave it its name!”

Tris said in a hushed voice:
“It’s nicknamed the ‘Sage Wolf’, it will not be the king of the bone biters, and the Jackals will not have a king of the bone biters in the future, so I suggest you settle down, Frederick.

You are dead!
You think you’re fearless, but I always have a way to make you die again! You pathetic . Security Chief!”

“Damn it!”

This “title” made the unruly King of Bones curse out in pain as it realized that its “true identity” had been revealed by these Blood Vulture Vampires.

“My kind little Murphy would like to have a chat with you, he feels that there is room for improvement in our relationship.”

Tris reminded “kindly”:

“You’re a Creator follower of some size, and my Murphy is now the new curator of the exhibition area, so there’s nothing you two can’t talk about since you’re barely coworkers, right? Would you like me to make an appointment for you? Your Majesty.”

“Hmph, let’s get the tablet first.”

The King of Biting Bones borrowed Hogg’s mouth and whispered:
“I don’t want to bow down, but I really don’t have much time left, so please get it done as soon as possible! Believe me, O Scarlet Witch who is drunk on playing love games with her heir but has sadly fallen and is no longer able to escape, this matter is important to both of us!”
