Chapter 261 Preparing for War

"It's incredible." Bifo looked at the wound on Kili's leg and was surprised. "This is Morgul poison, and you actually suppressed it with these herbs."

Aaron (missing body) spread his hands casually, "My ancestor..."

"Please be honest, Mr. Gaius."

"Okay! I have one, no, two teachers to be exact.

One was a Master of Potions, the other a Master of Botany, and as their apprentice, suppressing toxic attacks was nothing to me. "

"Who are they?" Bifo asked excitedly, "If you can, please introduce them to me."

Missing body:......

If nothing else happens, you won’t be able to see them in this life, and it will be very difficult in the next life.

"Ahem! They left Middle-earth, and I don't know where they are."

"What a pity." Bifo beat his chest and felt sorry that he could not see the two masters.

"But there are only so many medicinal materials in this town. It took me several hours of research to find a way to suppress the toxicity. It will take several days of research to completely detoxify it."

"It's amazing." Bifo said with a sigh, "The king's leaf grass can detoxify. You can use these ordinary medicines instead of the king's leaf grass to spread the word. I don't know how many doctors will feel ashamed."

"Kingia grass?" Sigrid's eyes widened in astonishment, "Isn't that a weed? We all use it to feed pigs."

Beaver:......

This is embarrassing.

The missing body suppressed a smile and patted Kili's shoulder, "Wait, brother, I will find this magical herb for you right now."

"I'll go too." Bofur immediately raised his hand.

After the two walked out of the room, they looked at each other and laughed in unison.

Bofur found the pig sty and took a piece of grass from a pig's mouth. "Honestly, I just saw the despair in Kili's eyes. He probably wouldn't even think of feeding the pigs until he died." Can save his life."

"I didn't expect that either." The missing body said speechlessly, then picked up an identical weed from the pig trough and wrapped it up in disgust.

After Bifo got the king's leaf grass, he quickly cleaned it and boiled it in a special method.

"Drink this bowl of medicine after boiling it, and the toxins in Qili's body will be completely eliminated within a few hours."

At this time, Bud came over and looked at Aaron seriously, "Time is running out. Thorin and the others will arrive at Lonely Mountain after dark. We must be ready to fight before night comes."

The missing body looked at Bofur and Bifur, "Kili, I'll leave it to you. I have to make some preparations so that I can deal with it if Smaug comes."

After saying that, the missing body followed Bud down the stairs. To his surprise, Barn, Sigrid, and Tilda were all waiting in a small boat.

Tilda smiled innocently, "Brother Gaius, we all want to see your magic."

The corner of Missing Body's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that he was like a street performer now, but it was really hard for him to refuse the smile of a little girl.

"Okay! But there's no need to get on the boat."

The missing body placed its right hand on the cold lake, and an ice-blue magic circle appeared in front of several people.

White cold air emanated from the magic circle, and half of the lake below the house was slowly frozen, turning into a thick layer of ice.

"How magical!" Barn murmured, and Sigrid and Tilda's eyes also shone with strange light.

When Bard saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Aaron had such magical abilities, and he should be able to protect his three children even if Smaug came.

"I will carve an advanced defensive magic circle on the ice, which can withstand the dragon flame once.

When Smaug comes, you just lie down within the magic circle and pretend to be dead, and then row out after everything has settled. "

"Then why not add a defensive magic circle to the entire town?" Tilda asked in confusion.

The missing body rolled its eyes and rubbed the little girl's head.

“My magic power is also limited and cannot cover the entire town.

And even if it can be covered, it can't do this. Smaug came to destroy Changhu Town. As a result, the town was destroyed, but not many people died. It will definitely find the problem by then. "

Tilda lowered her head in understanding. This method could save people, but not many.

"What do you need me to do?" Bud asked, "In terms of materials..."

"No need." The missing body interrupted, "Only novices need materials. I can use magic power to shape the magic circle, and the effect will not be much different."

After the words fell, the white inner magic ring and basic spells slowly formed on the ice, followed by the hexagonal star and the outer magic ring...

The circular magic circle was carved out in half a minute and blended into the ice surface.

"Not bad." The missing body pinched its nose, "Although it took a little longer, there are no flaws at all."

"Barn." Bard looked at his son, "When Smaug comes, you and your two sisters will hide under the house. You must protect them."

Barn nodded solemnly, "I understand, father."

"Let's go and have a look at the bell tower. That place is our only position." The missing body said with a solemn expression, "I hope there is no problem with the wind crossbow, otherwise I will have to work hard to repair it."

"Can you still repair the wind crossbow?" Bud looked at Aaron in surprise.

"Don't think of me as an ordinary wizard." Missing Body smiled meaningfully. He also learned the repair spell. Not to mention a wind crossbow, he could repair even a broken house.

The Bell Tower is in the center of Changhu Town and is the tallest building in the town.

The only wind crossbow was placed on the platform above the big clock, with only room for a few people to stand.

"This is the most conspicuous place in the whole town. Smaug will definitely notice it." Bard said.

“Then it’s up to you, sharpshooter.

I will do my best to strengthen the defense of this clock tower. "The Missing Body said as he slowly raised his right hand and used his finger as a pen to carve runes under the bell tower.

With the entire tower as the core of the magic array, the magic energy in the body is continuously output into the array.

Ten minutes later, the huge magic circle was hidden in the air, but Bard and the others could feel the huge sense of security contained in it.

"It's done, the pinnacle of life." Missing Body breathed a sigh of relief, "This is the perfect ultimate defensive magic circle. Even Smaug's dragon flames can withstand it once."

"Only once?"

"What else do you want?" the missing body said unhappily, "If it were an ordinary dragon, it wouldn't be a problem to withstand the dragon flames several times, but Smaug is at the Dragon King level.

Its body is much taller than this clock tower, and it can be burned to ashes just by a sneeze. It is already very difficult for my magic circle to withstand the dragon's breath that it sprays out with all its strength. "

"No, I'm not dissatisfied." Bud explained with an awkward smile, "It's just that if we defend more times, we can have a better chance of winning."

"Tch!" Missing Body glanced at him speechlessly, "You can't be too greedy as a human being."

"I see."

“But the stakes are so high and lives are at stake that no one can be too cautious.

Fortunately I was prepared. "The missing body proudly took out the magic crystal, "Dangdangdang, it's beautiful! "

"Beautiful." Sigrid and Tilda nodded, their eyes fixed on the blue crystal and refused to move away.

"Is this a sapphire?" Bard asked tentatively, "I admit that it is very precious, but gems can't help. Although evil dragons like shiny things, such a small piece is incomparable to the treasure of Lonely Mountain. ”

Missing body:......

What kind of vision are they! Am I that vulgar?

"This is a magic crystal that contains powerful magic power and can power the magic array.

The magic circle can keep running until its magic power is drained by the magic circle. "

Hearing this, Bard looked at Sapphire excitedly, "How many times can you block the dragon flames?"

"Hmm... This is the ultimate magic circle. I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be a problem three or five times." The missing body said thoughtfully, and then released the magic crystal towards the clock tower.

The blue crystal rose slowly, stopped at the top of the bell tower, and merged into the core of the magic array.

"Are you ready?" Barn asked.

"Of course not, this is just the most basic configuration.

I also need weapons, spears, bows and arrows. "

"I have a bow and arrow, but as for the spear... I only have a spear hook modified from an old harpoon."

The missing body immediately thought of the top-notch weapons collected by Bard, and couldn't help but have a few clear black lines on his face.

“Forget it, let’s make do with it, but the more the better.

In addition to these I also need a boat, and a guide.

I need to become familiar with all the houses, streets, and waterways in Changhu Town as soon as possible. "

"I can help you." Baan volunteered and stood up, "Do you want to make it easier to fight the dragon?"

The missing body took a deep look at the boy who was two or three years older than himself, and nodded after being silent for a moment.

If nothing else goes wrong, Bard, the archer, will be the main attacker in this battle. He can just stand on the bell tower and shoot arrows.

As a magician, he has to work harder. Not only does he have to be an assist, but he also has to be responsible for attracting Smaug's attention. If he can't even recognize the road clearly, he may end up in a dead end accidentally.

You can't just use Phantom to escape every time. There isn't much magic energy in the first place, and this kind of consumption can't be tolerated.

Bud returned to his house with his two daughters. He first took out the weapon bag from under the boat, and then carefully checked the bow and arrow.

As for the Missing Body, he sat on a small boat and enjoyed the not-so-beautiful scenery of Changhu Town. Barn patiently told him the length of the street, where it led, and how many forks there were.

The missing body listened and memorized it, and as time passed, a simple three-dimensional structure diagram emerged in his mind.

"Okay, I almost remember it."

"you sure?"

"I'm very sure." The missing body pointed at his head, "My memory is beyond your imagination."

A look of envy flashed in Baan's eyes, and he said with a hint of understanding, "Is there anything else I can do to help you?"

"Ship, stay, you, go back." The missing body smiled meaningfully, "I have to circle this town a few more times. After all, the opponent is the leader, so it is necessary to make more preparations."
