Chapter 70: space ring

Barrett put on the ring, and Old Will briefly taught how to use the space ring.

The space ring is quite simple to use, but unlike the calfskin bag, it uses mental power to open and close the demigods inside. The mental power of ordinary people is not as large as that of mages, and there are very few opportunities to use them. Therefore, if ordinary people want to use the space ring, they need to exercise repeatedly before they can use it flexibly.

Not only that, because ordinary people lack mental power, the number of times they can use the space ring every day is generally limited. If they are used too many times, their mental power will be exhausted. Darkness, even fainting, or even more serious, there is even a risk of death.

But that was not the case with Barrett. He simply tried it twice, and he already mastered how to use the space ring. After that, he used it several times in a row, but he couldn't feel a trace of mental fatigue.

Old Will was quite curious about this. He said that Barrett's total amount and flexibility of mental power can even catch up with a magic apprentice, but Barrett can't feel the omnipresent magic power in the entire multiverse through mental power. It is really contradictory and special. In the end, the mage can only attribute it to Barrett's unique talent.

After that, everyone shared the precious roast chicken that was worth a space ring. Everyone present ate more or less, and the scene was more like a special mourning ceremony than sharing food at a dinner party.

Old Will ate a small amount of chicken breast and sweet corn, especially sweet corn, which he said tasted better than chicken; half-elf on a chicken wing and a little mushroom, and celery for garnish on the side of the plate; gnome Tear off a piece of roasted and attractive browned chicken skin on the back of the roast chicken; Barrett ate a chicken thigh, a whole thigh and a shank; and the rest of the roast chicken was handed over to the ogre... ..

During the meal, Old Will also talked about a barbarian's long history of "dividing food", which Barrett also knew, and almost all Nords knew.

History happened before the establishment of the Magic Empire. Among the barbarians in that period, some tribes had a tradition of "dividing food", except that they did not eat roast chicken, but people—dead relatives.

Those tribes believed that through such rituals, the deceased relatives could become one with themselves, and the soul of the deceased would thus protect the living and bestow the strength and wisdom of his life on those who enjoyed his body.

It is not clear whether the living will really come to the blessing of the dead because of this. Barrit, but cannibalism of the same race is not tolerated by intelligent creatures, unless this race is on the verge of extinction like the orcs in the Magic Empire.

Then, when the empire was established, the mages of the empire forced them to abandon those rude customs when they integrated all the barbarians, and changed the burial and this 'integration' method of mourning to cremation.

At that time, the villagers of a barbarian village found that the effect (taste?) would be better when the dead were cremated halfway before taking them out for a "fusion" ceremony, so they often did it secretly.

But this matter still let the mages know, so no surprise, the empire sent a magist to punish the village. The mage first let the raging flames rise around the village, and then let the surging flames slowly oppress the village, eventually turning the entire village into ashes.

At that time, many other barbarians who were forced to watch by the mage witnessed the terrifying and shocking scene. There were also some barbarians who heard the mage cast spells and muttered angrily, "Do you like to eat the same clan? Eat it with fire? Then how about trying to grill yourself!"

After that, this bad habit no longer exists.

......

Before leaving, Old Will asked Barrett if he needed to introduce the Alva Mage who was good at history and writing to him, but Barrett politely refused. Yes, it seems to bring him some unexpected gains.

If there is a problem in the future, let’s talk about it later.

The group of 'Dirty Novels' walked a little in a hurry. Just after everyone finished eating the roast chicken, the carriage prepared by Mist Castle for Old Will came to the pub of 'Fortune, Fortune'.

In front of the carriage are six tall and strong stallions, three red, two black and one white. The carriage is made of fir wood from the misty forest. The whole carriage is tall and spacious, otherwise the ogres will suffer. . The surface of the carriage was painted silver gray, and the unique golden clover logo of the Knights was printed on the door of the carriage.

This carriage is really too big, and Barrett has never figured out how it came through the small intestines in the Bay of Pigs. He will go through all the routes to get here in his mind. Finding any road that would allow the carriage to pass could only be attributed to the fact that the driver was equally "talented" as he was.

A knight with a delicate beard came down from the carriage. The knight whispered a few words in Old Will's ear. After that, the mage said a simple goodbye to Barrett, with a 'dirty novel'. The others left, and the ogre Moglock didn't even wait for his beloved roasted clams.

However, Old Will promised to let it eat well when passing through Taron Town on the way to Galano City.

……

After parting, Barrett returned to the dilapidated log cabin. The door of the house was opened, and it seemed that someone had come in, but Barrett didn't care. There was nothing of value in the house, and the only "thing" that could be of value also made him drive away.

He entered the house, raised a flame in the fireplace, stared at the flame for a long time, then sat beside the bed, staring straight at the space ring on his left middle finger.

There was some noise outside the house, because the Bay of Pigs woke up like a real pigsty. From time to time, there were all kinds of noisy and noisy sounds outside the house - the clanging sound of the blacksmith, the charming laughter, the quarrel between the adventurers and the merchants...

Those sounds were no different from the humming that a herd of pigs made when they were looking for food—it was all about survival.

These voices didn't give Barrett any distraction, he was accustomed to it. After a long time, when Barrett felt a faint sourness in his eyes, such a line finally appeared on the translucent parchment of the journal system.

[Space Ring 'Song of Saran': Maker Scott Young. 】

[This is a ring with a long history. The mage Scott Young during the Magic Empire made this ring for a Nord girl named 'Salan'.

The material of the ring is an alloy of black steel and mithril. This alloy is dark black throughout, but will turn into a dull purple under the moonlight. The space of the inner half-plane of the ring is an independent and complete half-plane that is still in its infancy. It will grow at an extremely slow rate, and its inner space can double in size every hundred years.

The current space size is: 782.46 cubic meters]

[Additional attributes: When wearing a Nord bloodline, it provides the wearer with a bonus of 1 point of agility and 1 point of strength. 】

[Note: The most beautiful songs will bring the inheritance of blood...]

Barrett is very satisfied with the space ring called "Song of Saran"~www.readwn.com~ Its inner space is not only very wide, but also has additional attributes.

Although this kind of quantification of a person's comprehensive attributes always makes Barrett feel very weird, the effects of many magic accessories made by mages are even weirder and unpredictable than this, so Barrett is not surprised by this and accepts it calmly. .

Of course, a large part of the reason for being satisfied with the ring is that it was given almost for nothing, and it was nothing more than a roast chicken worth less than a silver coin.

Now there is a small amount of things in the ring - two winter wolf furs, not yet tanned, but you don't need to worry about rotting and deterioration in the space ring; a pile of beautiful gold coins, Barrett doesn't count, but it should be 100 coins, he took out a few of them and put them in his hands to observe, and found that these gold coins should have been issued by the Magic Association; a large piece of amber with irregular shapes contained a small Morpho butterfly, which was the same time as the gnome and Barrett. What I found, I didn’t think that Old Will gave it to himself; two bottles of sky blue liquid, Barrett remembered that it should be the cold blood of the frost bug; the hard front legs of the three frost spiders, the beasts and monsters contain metal. The hard part has always been a good material for forging weapons and armor...

In addition to these gains, there are a few things in the space ring that don't seem to be harvested in the adventure, because Barrett knows all the things obtained in the misty forest, so he can easily distinguish those things from the last time. which are acquired during the adventure and which are not.

These non-adventure items should belong to the previous owner of the ring, Erlund, Barrett guessed. His mental power swept over these items, the appearance of all items appeared in his mind, and one of them successfully attracted his attention.
