Description: This pair of ordinary gloves is made of magic silk and a layer of flexible magic metal. It can not only resist the attacks of non-magic weapons, but also assist the user to cast spells.
…………
Seeing the attributes of the first piece of equipment, Brian was overjoyed, and immediately put it on his hand.
Immediately afterwards, he felt the originally loose gloves tighten until they fit into his palm.
Looking at the pentagram magic circle engraved on the palm of the eye guard, he tried to wave the spell casting posture.
Immediately, he immediately noticed that not only was the pair of gauntlets not affected in the slightest, but the additional 2 points of agility and 20% casting speed also made him feel an unprecedented smoothness.
With this pair of gauntlets, he can even throw a ring of spells the moment he raises his hand.
Then, he checked the attributes of the next piece of equipment:
Thunder Gauntlets +4
Type: Gauntlets
Quality: Purple Excellent
Attributes: Strength +3, melee attack with 5 points of lightning damage
Equipment effect:
If you hit a creature with a melee weapon, or cast a spell while wearing these bracers, the bracers will gain 1 charge.
Every time a charge is obtained, the thin cloud covering the wrist will become darker and darker. When the charge is full, the cloud covering the wrist will turn into black thunder mixed with lightning. cloud.
If the charge count of the bracer reaches 5 layers, the wearer can choose to consume all the charges in the bracer and release "Lightning Beam" or "Summon Thunder".
When the wearer equips this pair of bracers, when receiving a lightning attack, the damage will be reduced by 15 points, and the bracers will be charged by 2 rounds.
Description: There is always a thin layer of static electricity cloud covering this pair of wristbands. When the wearer launches an attack, the static electricity cloud covering the wristband will slowly flow and converge on the weapon or fist held by the wearer .
…………
Seeing these two pairs of magical gauntlets whose quality was close to legendary, Brian recalled some rumors about the missionary mage Greeley, and it was very likely to be true.
It is said that the greatest hobby of the missionary mage Gregory is making magic gauntlets with various spells.
Because this allows non-spellcasters to unleash deadly spells in combat.
In this regard, his explanation to Azuth, the god of mages, is: it can reduce the number of wizards on the battlefield, thereby reducing the death rate of wizards, and it can also allow rulers and nobles to taste the joy of using magic through the "magic gauntlet". After the pleasure, let them pay more attention to the cultivation and development of magic.
But the soldiers are full of suspicion about this. They think that compared with the "magic gauntlet" controlled by themselves, the existence of wizards on the battlefield can increase their sense of security.
In the first few years, Greeley only occasionally conducted research on the 'Magic Gauntlet', and spent more of his time strangling potential challengers.
But not long after, Greeley became obsessed with his research - 'magic gauntlet'.
Most of these gauntlets are made of flexible metal, and some even extend from the hands to the shoulders, and are equipped with retractable sharp claws and spikes.
Of course, there are many powerful magics added.
Exactly which spells are not fully determined, but may include: Cone of Cold, Lightning Bolt, Magic Missile, Call Thunder, Feather Fall, Fly, and Levitate.
The gauntlet can emit a magical beam as dazzling as the sun, and can also release an invisible force field shock.
The reason why it can be inferred that the gauntlet has the above-mentioned ability is mainly because a thief can steal a full six pairs of magic gauntlets from Greeley's mage tower at one time.
These six pairs of gauntlets were the most complicated semi-finished products Greeley made at that time.
Because of this theft, Greeley was so angry that he smashed everything around him to pieces for several days.
Then, after he calmed down, he remade a batch of magic gauntlets with more powerful abilities, and set them so that only he could activate these abilities.
Unfortunately, however, the gauntlets once again became the trophies of thieves.
The missionary mage living in the Lost City of Leylines was very frustrated. He vowed never to attach all his abilities to pure objects, and launched a years-long hunt for thieves.
However, until he disappeared, he did not find out who the thief who stole his things was.
This series of setbacks drove Gregory extremely crazy, but it is unbelievable that the thief who stole his gauntlet was actually Azuth, the mage god.
The reason why the Supreme One did this was mainly to make Greeley more diligent in fulfilling his responsibilities as a missionary mage, instead of using his excess energy on this kind of magic that would be enough to threaten wizards as long as it was worn by ordinary people Gauntlet.
It is said that Azuth, the mage god, still keeps many magic gauntlets made by Greer.
When the Most High feels the need, He also distributes these gauntlets, rewarding those who need them most.
That's the truth, Brian has indeed heard the rumors that the mage god rewarded the gauntlet.
At the same time, he finally understood why he saw so many methods of making gauntlets when he was flipping through the books restricted by the magic ban in the library.
He vaguely guessed that the reason why the gauntlets are so perfectly made is definitely related to the magic silk and flexible magic metal mentioned in the equipment description.
This conjecture made Brian secretly keep an eye on it.
When he has the opportunity, he must study the knowledge left by the missionary mage Gregory.
Afterwards, with a slightly excited mood, he checked the third piece of magic equipment.
The reason why he was a little excited was mainly because this magic book had been appraised for the longest time, and its quality was self-evident.
book of the forgotten
Type: Wonder
Quality: Golden·Legendary
Attributes:
1. Arcane analysis: If there is a creature within 60 feet of itself that casts a spell of level 1 or higher, the person who holds this spell book can make a knowledge (mystery) check for this spell.
If you successfully pass the test, this spell will be recorded in the spell book with symbols that only you can understand, and you can master this spell.
On the contrary, it will be recorded in an indescribable and obscure symbolic language, and the spells recorded in this way cannot be used.
Note: This ability can only be used while holding the spellbook. Once this ability is used, the spellbook will enter a restorative state.
Note: During the recovery period, the arcane analysis ability cannot be used, and the duration of the recovery state depends on the level of the analyzed spell * 10 days.
2. Hidden knowledge: the holder of the spell book can put any books or scrolls that record arcane knowledge into the spell book, and guide the hidden power in the spell book, so that the holder can use it faster. These obscure and arcane knowledge are integrated.
Note: This ability needs to use the bearer's experience points to activate.
Note 1: This gilded spellbook features a cameo of a mage who likes to prostitute other people's spells.After the holder of the spell book is attuned to the spell book, he can use the spell book as his own spell book and an arcane magic weapon.If the holder's attunement with the spell book ends, everything recorded in the book will disappear accordingly.
Explanation 2: This is the 94th missionary mage Greeri Muluklas appointed by Mystra, the goddess of magic, and Azuth, the god of mages, to extract the essential energy of the magic net and combine the magic knowledge and experience of all previous missionary mages. The spell book he made was also the most proud work of strange objects in his life.
Explanation 3: The Book of the Forsaken, also known as the Book of Whores who teach fools, anyone who is lucky to obtain this spell book, even if he is a born idiot, can learn at least one trick.
Curse: Because there are too many spells in this spell book for free, many spellcasters are cursed. The spellcasters who are in tune with this curse book will be affected by its curse.
As long as the curse is in effect, the owner who holds the spellbook will always keep the spellbook within his reach, unwilling to part with it.
In addition, if the holder empathizes with another and uses other spell books to prepare spells, he will suffer psychic damage equal to the level of the spell in the spell book.
…………
"call"
Seeing the attributes of this spell book, Brian let out a long breath, with satisfaction in his eyes.
As described in this spell book.
Even a born idiot, with the help of the two great abilities of arcane analysis and hidden knowledge, can at least learn one trick.
Originally, he was still worried that his speed of parsing the Nether scroll was too slow, and he might not be able to keep up with the improvement of his strength.
After all, apart from his own upgrade system, his knowledge background is not at the same level as those liches who have lived for thousands of years.
This kind of thing that takes time to accumulate is difficult to catch up with them.
Now, possessing the 'hidden knowledge' in the 'Book of the Forgotten' can help him quickly understand knowledge that takes a lot of time to master.
For example, the only Nether scroll in his hand.
If it is put into the spell book, he can master the knowledge in the scroll as quickly as possible.
The most important thing is that the principle of this spell book is exactly the same as his arcane fire, and it is also the essential energy obtained from the structure of the magic net.
This also means that these two things may be completely fused together under some kind of coincidence.
If he masters the artifact making method in the Nether scroll, it is not impossible to even upgrade it to an artifact.
Brian suppressed the excitement in his heart, calmed down immediately, and put away all the items.
At this point, the mansion has basically been explored.
Unconsciously.
He and Hisaiah have been away for a long time, and it is time to go back.
After all, this mansion already belonged to him in a sense, and it would not be too late to keep those fragments for future exploration.
