"Kill!" Khajiit shouted with excitement.
"Slaughter these guys!"
"...!"
Spider People, covered in black and orange short fur, slender, and terrifying in appearance, leaped and moved nimbly through the jungle.
Like clumps of black shadows, they quickly descended upon the Iron Ratmen and Ogres below, instantly engaging in a melee.
Roars and battle cries echoed in the sky! The brutal clash of races quickly filled the air with a bloody scent.
Behind the Iron Ratmen and Ogres, dozens of Demon Manifested People Magic Casters assisted with Magic attacks.
The Spider People were exceptionally troublesome. Not only were they agile, but they also had steel-hard spider silk wrapped around their bodies, which could block most physical damage.
"Magic Arrow · Wind!"
Tang Zheng stood under a lush tree, chanting.
Whoosh! Ten white streams of light instantly condensed, flying into the Spider People, accurately hitting the unprotected heads of these Spider People and piercing through them.
『Gained 270 Experience Points』
『...』
『Gained 369 Experience Points』
Tang Zheng stood in place, his movements unceasing. Streams of "Magic Arrow" were released, dense white rays of light constantly flying out, forcefully defeating a Spider People force that attacked from afar.
The power of First-Tier Magic was indeed not high, but it depended on who was using it. Tang Zheng's Magic Attack stat was not low, and these Spider People did not have any Magic resistance abilities.
The power of the "Magic Arrow" released by Tang Zheng alone was indeed abnormally high, which naturally came from the class bonus.
The Mad Mage's passive "Elemental Attribute Change" granted the power to imbue Magic with Elemental Attributes.
The Magic Transcendenter's passive "Super Magic Master" strengthened the maximum variable quantity in Magic.
"Element's Blessing" caused stronger destruction and effects when using Elemental Magic.
In addition.
"Magic Consumption Reduction" allowed Tang Zheng to expend only one point of Mana when casting Magic below the Fourth Tier.
This series of passive bonuses led to ordinary "Magic Arrow" being able to deal the highest damage with the lowest consumption in Tang Zheng's hands.
The power of each Magic Arrow reached the Second Tier Magic intensity.
One Magic Arrow could basically solve a Spider Person.
If not, he would simply add another arrow! "The situation in the Hills area, under the influence of the drought, the crisis of water and food has emerged and begun to become completely chaotic."
Tang Zheng released Magic, watching the constantly attacking Spider People, pondering silently. These Spider People had come to seize water.
The Demon Manifested People lived near the water source, but this water source had naturally been occupied by the Demi-human race led by Tang Zheng.
Actually.
Even without occupying the water source, under the current drought and hot climate, the Demi-human tribes under Tang Zheng's control would still not lack water.
With Lizardman Kuruche's ability, she could release the Fourth Tier "Cloud Manipulation" herself, creating a small rain cloud without much trouble.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Huh? Tang Zheng raised his eyelids and noticed dozens of Spider People spreading out, surrounding him from all directions, clearly aware of the threat he posed.
Black and orange figures leaped and ran through the jungle and across the ground.
In an instant, dozens of Spider People leaped from above, turning into shadows that enveloped Tang Zheng, while more Spider People appeared in the forest below, surrounding him from below.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Dense, tough spider silk spewed out from the Spider People, forming webs in mid-air that covered the entire area.
Faced with this scene.
Tang Zheng nodded, commenting, "Nice coordination."
"Dimensional Move"
Whoosh! Tang Zheng's figure disappeared into thin air, easily escaping the encirclement and reaching the outer perimeter.
Watching the Spider People, who had lost their target and become flustered, Tang Zheng raised his palm and aimed at the group of Spider People who had gathered together, offering themselves up.
"Fireball!"
Boom! A basketball-sized Fireball flew from Tang Zheng's palm, turning into a scarlet blaze that ignited a group of Spider People in front of him, followed by an explosion.
On the Attribute Panel, a large number of experience notifications flashed continuously.
"Should I leave some alive?"
"Never mind, it's better to take advantage of the chaos and clear out a batch of this type of Demi-human."
Tang Zheng turned around, looked at the Spider People who were still charging forward, and raised his hand, sending out ten white streams of light.
The Spider People clan's initially strong offensive quickly turned into a disadvantage as time passed, showing signs of a complete rout.
The bloody smell became even stronger!
The excited roars of Ogres, Iron Ratmen, and Demon Manifested People rang out from time to time.
Hmm? Tang Zheng's movements suddenly stopped, and he looked up at the top, which was obscured by lush branches: "Here they come again."
『Discovered Fifth Tier Magic "Clairvoyance", requires Mental-type spellcasting level (29~35Lv), current conditions met…』
"Astrology Thousand Miles is really busy these days." Tang Zheng only glanced at the sky before retracting his gaze.
Ever since the Holy Kingdom cut off grain trade, the Midnight Scripture's Astrology Thousand Miles had begun to probe the Hills area, which meant that the Slane Theocracy had noticed the anomaly here.
"With this frequency of probing, the Slane Theocracy is paying much more attention than the Holy Kingdom, as expected of a place that advocates 'human supremacy' and focuses on subjugating and eliminating Demi-humans."
A thoughtful look flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes, then his brow raised, and he said lightly, "Has the probing gaze left?"
Whether it was the intuition of a Warrior, the caster's keen sense of Mana, or the bonus provided by the Ninja class.
He could vaguely feel the faint sensation of being watched by the probing Magic.
However.
Tang Zheng didn't care, the Player's characteristics allowed him to avoid this type of peeping Magic.
He also possessed the Second Tier Magic "Detection Interference" obtained from the Monk class, which could be used for counter-detection.
The Magic effect released by "Clairvoyance" is similar to a bird's-eye view from a high altitude. Although it can see many areas, it cannot clearly see specific locations.
Unless it is used in conjunction with positioning Magic, it can be observed at close range.
Astrology Thousand Miles has been observing not only the southern area controlled by Tang Zheng during this period, but the entire Hills area, so naturally it will not stay in one place for too long.
Looking at the Attribute Panel.
[Experience Bar:2012322/410000]
The Experience Points have accumulated to about 2 million during this period.
...
[Skill Point:63→62]
...
Skill: Clairvoyance (Fifth Tier)
Consumption: 25MP ~ Continuous Consumption
Introduction: A detection Magic that can be used to observe distant scenes. It has the advantage of long distance, but it does not have strong detection capabilities. It is easily resisted by anti-detection Magic. It can be used with positioning and marking Magic.
...
Tang Zheng had already learned it some time ago, and he was envious of this Magic when he solved "Funny Brother".
Unfortunately, at that time, the stacked levels of the Mental-type Magic Caster profession were not enough to learn it, but now he will definitely not let it go.
Although the name of this Magic is "Clairvoyance", the actual distance does not reach a thousand miles at all. Only when used in conjunction with positioning Magic or marking Magic, with a clear observation target, can relatively long-distance detection be performed.
But it will also be affected by this.
It can only see the scene within a certain range of the positioned target.
"No matter what, I finally mastered a decent detection Magic."
Tang Zheng sighed inwardly.
Even with the passive blessing of "Super Magic Master", he cannot exert the effect produced by Astrology Thousand Miles using this Magic.
Astrology Thousand Miles' Innate Ability "Eyes of Art" can greatly enhance detection Magic. In addition, the other party also holds Magic Item left by the Six Great Gods, which can be further strengthened.
This information was gradually obtained by Tang Zheng from the three questions that "Funny Brother" asked each time he was resurrected when he solved him.
Looking at the defeated Spider People clan.
After Tang Zheng ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up, his figure flashed and disappeared in place.
The view in front of him changed.
His figure was already standing on a hill not far from this jungle battlefield.
A faint stench of corpses and a strange smell of decay poured into Tang Zheng's nose, causing him to frown almost imperceptibly.
This strange smell came from a rotten, tall Ogre Undead, and next to the Undead stood a thin figure.
"Old friend, the place you chose is just great."
As soon as Khajiit saw Tang Zheng appear, he immediately withdrew his gaze from the distance, the eyeballs protruding from his shriveled eye sockets, flashing with excited light.
"A foul smell." Tang Zheng, his face covered by a red hood and black mask, looked at the Ogre Undead next to Khajiit.
"Fireball."
Red flames were released from Tang Zheng's hand, hitting the Ogre Undead, instantly turning into a ball of fire and burning.
"Roar!"
The Ogre Undead let out a hoarse growl, struggling and twisting its body, but was quickly turned into a pile of ashes by the flames and dissipated.
『Gained 31 Experience Points』
Only this much experience for being made into such a low-level Undead?
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed, confirming that Demi-humans could provide experience after being made into Undead.
Khajiit was not annoyed at all when he saw the Ogre Undead, which he had just created, being killed by Tang Zheng. If it had been in the past, he would have been furious.
But at this moment, Khajiit not only maintained a face full of smiles, but also didn't care at all.
There are a large number of Demi-human corpses in the "Corpse Pit", which can't be used up, and it's completely not worth it to argue over this matter.
"Next time I'll use 'Odor Removal' to clear the smell."
Khajiit squeezed out a smile on his pale cheeks, bent over slightly and opened his mouth, his eyes glancing at the Demi-human melee that had just ended: "I want 20 Iron Ratmen corpses, a little bit incomplete is fine."
Tang Zheng glanced at Khajiit and nodded indifferently: "Okay."
Khajiit's eyes lit up, rubbed his hands, and his hoarse voice continued to sound: "Can you give me another 20 Spider People corpses?"
As a specialized Magic Caster, Khajiit can control 100 low-level ordinary Undead.
Compared with the Undead made from human corpses, the strength of the low-level Undead made from these Demi-human corpses is much higher.
Especially the Demi-human melee just now.
The Ogre's powerful strength, the Iron Ratmen's strong defense, the Spider People's agile speed, and the tough spider silk all made Khajiit's eyes light up.
As for the Demon Manifested People... it would be a waste to make them into ordinary low-level Undead.
What's important is.
That Demon Manifested People Queen, Na Su Li Ni, is extremely powerful, making Khajiit fearful.
Khajiit glanced at Tang Zheng next to him cautiously, his eyes filled with fear and disbelief.
He had been in the Hills area for a while, and Khajiit had already seen the kings of those Demi-human races, and none of them were weak, or rather, they were all stronger than him.
But this group of Demi-humans actually completely obeyed this mysterious guy in front of him, Khajiit couldn't imagine how the other party did it.
"Okay."
Tang Zheng still spoke calmly, then changed the subject: "How is the 'Spiral of Death' ritual going?"
Mentioning what he was doing, Khajiit's eyes immediately became fiery.
"With the help of the 'Corpse Pit', it is already being arranged. If you want the 'Spiral of Death' ritual to truly take effect, it will take a long time."
Khajiit clenched the staff in his hands, his face excited: "It won't take too long, just give me five years."
"No, three years is enough. After these Demi-humans die, the negative energy that can be channeled out with the help of the Undead is more than that of humans."
Three years?
Hearing Khajiit's excited explanation, Tang Zheng felt a sneer rise in his heart.
Not to mention three years, he wouldn't even have half a year. The chaos in the Hills had already begun, which also meant that all parties were about to take the stage.
Tang Zheng knew from the beginning that Khajiit would not succeed, so he didn't care about Khajiit.
He currently just wanted to observe the "Spiral of Death" ritual up close.
After reaching cooperation with Khajiit, Tang Zheng also indirectly obtained information from him about how to arrange the entire "Spiral of Death" ritual and other processes.
After further understanding the "Spiral of Death" ritual.
Tang Zheng suddenly discovered that this ritual actually had similarities with the "Wild Transformation Ritual," or rather, it should be the way it absorbed energy.
The "Spiral of Death" ritual utilizes the characteristics produced by the Undead.
When a large number of Undead gather together, the negative energy generated will give birth to more Undead, and in this process, there is a probability of giving birth to more powerful Undead.
The "Spiral of Death" ritual utilizes this point, by using the negative energy gathered when a large number of Undead are generated, and guiding this negative energy into the caster's body.
In simple terms.
The "Spiral of Death" ritual can absorb huge amounts of negative energy.
The "Wild Transformation Ritual" is to absorb the corpses of beasts or Demon Creatures, so that the caster can transform into the beast or Demon Creature.
The two Magic Rituals, one is the absorption of energy, and the other is the absorption of physical matter.
This made Tang Zheng see some kind of possibility, he didn't know if it was because of the passive ability of the [Magic Transcendenter], the effect of "Magic Master."
For this complex ritual, Tang Zheng felt that he could easily understand and digest it.
