Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 115: Cheating to Get a Title
Wu Ma, who was only a mid-level 8th level, actually devoured the soul of a 9th-level upper-level black bone dragon. This is definitely a great tonic, and its effect far exceeds the soul energy of swallowing the same-level undead multiple times. If it were a wild Destruction Knight, there would be no chance to surpass the 4th level to kill people for tonic. I watched Wu Ma hide in a cave and concentrate on absorbing and transforming the energy of the black bone dragon. I felt its mood that swept away the depression of malnutrition in the past few days and became joyful and happy. Finally, a problem was solved, which made me feel relieved. With the protection of the bone giant territory, Bao had to be more careful. Wu Ma's safety was basically worry-free, and there was no need to worry about food - swallowing a 9th-level lower-level undead casually would be enough for it to digest for a day or two, allowing it to always maintain the maximum swallowing capacity, and the development speed would definitely be much faster.
Of course, there is still a problem left about Wu Ma, and it is hard to start with it for the time being. That is "supernatural power conversion". The intermediate destruction knight Ibora of the bee absorbs and converts the alien energy of the wind-attributed undead, which makes him so sensitive. The combat instinct of the destruction knight is indeed very strong. Riding a little bee, he chose to absorb the wind attribute. According to his actual situation, he made the best choice. However, Wu Ma's mount is a scorpion, which takes the power-type development route. The wind attribute is more agile and not suitable for it. Based on the same reason, among the known several alien attributes of the "dead soul space", the water attribute and blood attribute can also be excluded, and the remaining ones are only fire and earth. It's a pity that Wu Ma can't and dare not enter the "bottomless abyss" and "hell volcano". Moreover, the earth-attributed undead in the "bottomless abyss" cannot come out, and the "hell volcano" lacks a sufficient number of high-level undead suitable for it to devour. There is no way to expect them to help Wu Ma complete the "supernatural power conversion". He can only pay attention to finding a suitable target in the Lost Continent. Anyway, since Ibola was able to evolve successfully here, Wu Ma should have a better chance with my help.
After sending Shaman back to the other side of Dragon Bone Mountain, I went to the "Hell Volcano" again. Hard work pays off. After such a long search by the Volcano's subordinates, they finally found a "Millennium Fire Lotus". The most needed one among the qualified Volcano's subordinates at the moment should be the Flying Fire Ghost Guben, who is being suppressed by me and is in the energy accumulation stage. The level of Kekexili, who is also close to the evolution stage, is too high. If you want to help it, you need at least "Ten Thousand Years Fire Crystal". After eating this "Millennium Fire Lotus", as long as it absorbs for a period of time, Guben should be able to start evolving into the Flying Fire Ghost King.
At this time, with the improvement of the level of professional players such as craftsmen and fashion designers, more and more holy weapon-level fireproof equipment was made by them. Many undead wizards have the ability to enter the "Hell Volcano" and have come here to seek development. Their strength is not too strong. In the early stage, they just wantonly subdued those low-level volcanic undead, wanting to take the mass line and gradually transition to the high level. After Hades failed to achieve the desired effect in directly curbing me, he seemed to change his mind and was very happy to break the situation where I dominated the volcano-unlike my difficult journey at the beginning, the development of other undead wizards was quite smooth. It is estimated that Hades may have secretly provided them with convenience and supported their actions. Quite a few people got some benefits. It is said that a certain undead wizard had just subdued a level 7 volcanic undead, and soon evolved to level 8. For ordinary undead wizards, I am afraid that they are not yet able to subdue it, which is already very good. He almost died of joy.
These things spread out, causing rumors to spread that I was just one person and had no ability to dominate such a huge "Hell Volcano". There were many hidden benefits that could not be developed, which attracted more undead wizards, especially those who had no connection with the Northeast Undead Alliance and the Southeast Undead Alliance and had no sect or faction, to come up the mountain. After all, compared with other normal undead, volcanic undead would be more likely to evolve to a higher level. Although I almost monopolized the right to soak in the "Hell Magma Pool", I could still grow and evolve by finding natural treasures such as "Thousand-Year Fire Lotus" and "Ten Thousand-Year Fire Crystal" and absorbing the soul energy of dark undead. For ordinary undead wizards, it was still quite attractive. Although they could not threaten my dominant position, their actions also disrupted my deployment, especially those treasure-hunting troops. Whether they were for their own use or intended to transfer for profit, if Hades intended to take care of them, the chances of success would be much greater than mine, which more or less brought some negative impacts to my future development plans and required more costs.
This month's immersion qualification challenge and Hades Dragon challenge are about to start again. Kekexili is still a layman now, so he must first strive for the immersion qualification of the "Hell Magma Pool". However, I don't want to use a hopeless hand to evade the Hades Dragon challenge this month. After the experience, I decided to let Taotao take a risk and try it. It is precious in danger. It is impossible to strive for a good future in a limited time with a smooth development. After all, it has evolved into a fire dragon beast, which is already quite close to the Hell Dragon. With the support of my "Death Control" and "Pet Contract", it is arranged to hang out with those bone dragons all day long to adapt to the instinctive fear. The "Dragon Power" of the Hades Dragon has a smaller impact on it than Khufu. Although its own strength is relatively poor, it should have a certain chance to survive the six-hour challenge time limit.
In addition to the "Hell Volcano", there is another thing that bothers me, that is Xiaobai, who has been tempering in the holy land "Wind Cave" of "Yinfeng Valley". In addition to Qingwu Feiyang, several other undead wizards have also possessed the ghost royal family through various means, and began to let them devour other of the same kind, preparing to alienate into "demon spirits" and obtain the ability of "instant movement" through possession. It's a pity that such unconventional things not only rely on strength, but also a little luck - not everyone has a chance, and not everyone with strong strength and seniority will definitely succeed first, at most, after the alienation is successful, the ability will be higher. But whether it can be alienated or not, everyone has an equal chance, and it all depends on the luck of each demon king who settles in the "Wind Cave". Therefore, although Xiaobai has the most tonic and his strength is the strongest among the demon kings of the Later Jin Dynasty, he has not been able to evolve into a "demon spirit" because of lack of opportunity. I went to the "Yinfeng Valley" several times to inspect it, looking for reasons and seeking solutions, but my efforts were fruitless. Only Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Tian Xing know the most about the relevant information of "demon spirits". If I grope blindly like this, I will definitely get half the result with twice the effort.
The three-month truce of the "Holy War of Light" against the Tongxin League is about to expire, and the Church of Light has the power to continue to launch the "Holy War of Light" against us. However, the Senate of Light players, who have the highest honor, has taken over. This is both an opportunity and a risk, and can be said to be a double-edged sword. Without a greater degree of certainty, they should not take too big actions during the sensitive period when they just came to power. Moreover, there are so many destroyed churches waiting for them to repair and rebuild, and there are many things to deal with. Therefore, until now, "Tianxia" is still calm, and there is no sign that the Church of Light is going to launch the "Holy War of Light" against our Tongxin League again. I don't know if they really intend to give up gnawing on our Tongxin League, or are arranging other more sinister and vicious tricks. The initiative is in their hands, so we have to be careful at all times and dare not relax our vigilance.
The transaction information spread by Qingwu Feiyang has also received a response. As I expected, Qiushui Changtian and Tianxing, who have earned a lot of qualifications through the massacre of the light players in late October and have successfully advanced to the eighth-level Undead Grand Mage, are very interested in the "blood change" that can temporarily increase the basic mental power. Although it is only the last two chances, compared with my current 14%, half an hour, Qingwu Feiyang's 11%, 25 minutes, and Xinbi Tiangao's 10%, 20 minutes, they may only achieve 8%, 20 minutes and 7%, 15 minutes. However, the improvement is the most important basic mental power for the Undead wizard, which has the dual effects of increasing the success rate of the "Soul Contract" and increasing the upper limit of mental power, summoning more or more powerful Undead to fight. After all, this is not an attribute that ordinary equipment can have. Even if it is just equipment to increase the success rate of the "Soul Contract", each Undead wizard can only equip two rings, two bracelets and a pair of gloves. Each ring is at most 5%, and a pair of high-level holy gloves is at most 15%. As for the bracelets made by professional players, it is said that the success rate may reach 7%, but such an attribute is more rare, not much easier than dropping an artifact. Moreover, "blood transformation" is a special ability that does not occupy equipment position, and it will gradually increase as the strength of the blood lich Temur increases. It can be said to be quite practical, and they be tempted.
They expressed their initial intention to trade with me through Qingwu Feiyang, but the price they offered for the "Blood Transformation" was too low and did not reach my ideal price. I helped Qingwu Feiyang, who had successfully advanced to the Undead Grand Mage, enter the "Bottomless Abyss" to subdue five Earth-Walking Night Shadows, and then entrusted the matter to her, allowing her to bargain with Qiushui Changtian and Tianxing. Anyway, this kind of thing cannot be rushed. The more anxious , the smaller the benefits will be. The party that can hold its temper will have a better chance of gaining the greatest benefits.
Another urgent matter is the task of promoting Shaman to a higher rank. Originally, according to its current strength, it should not be the opponent of the Marquis of the Vampire Fang. It would be safer to challenge it later. However, with the continuous increase in the strength of the necromancers, and whether it was intentional leaks by Qiu Shui Chang Tian and others, it has been discovered that some necromancers have noticed this Marquis, and they may pretend to be confused and kill it. In order to avoid more trouble, it is better to make a break as soon as possible. Anyway, the promotion of the vampire Fang is different from the evolution of other undead creatures. As long as you can kill the opponent of high rank fairly under the rules set by the system, you can get the corresponding level. It has nothing to do with the original ability of the challenger. At most, according to the challenger's qualifications, the skills possessed after successful promotion may be slightly different. Starting a few days earlier means benefiting earlier.
Of course, knowing that I am not a match for the old marquis, I will not let Shaman sacrifice in vain. In the case of a challenge for the title of marquis, no party can withdraw without the intervention of a third party or other violation of the challenge rules. It can only end with the defeat of one party. If Shaman is not as strong as the old marquis, it is enough to arrange for a third party to participate in the battle. The challenge will be terminated and Shaman will not be in any danger. According to the rules, the challenge for the title of marquis can only be launched again after one month, which is just a delay.
At the same time, in order to enable Shaman to defeat the old marquis, it is natural to come up with some ways to help him and increase his chances of success. The challenge for the promotion to the title must be carried out in a fair situation, and both parties of the challenge need to agree willingly. The two vampires that I have conquered are not eligible for the challenge for the promotion to the title, which eliminates the possibility of sacrificing one and giving up the title through fake fighting; if a third party intervenes to help and violates the rules of the challenge, the challenge for the promotion to the title will be invalid. Even if the opponent is killed in the end, there is no way to be promoted to the title; the location of the challenge is decided by negotiation between the two parties, and it is usually arranged in a relatively secret place where it will not be harassed much, with a specific combat range, not too small, not too large, and not suitable for hide-and-seek terrain. The restrictions of these terms make it impossible for me to openly help Shaman and directly participate in the challenge for the promotion to the title. But the rules are dead, but people are alive. There are always loopholes for me to exploit. It depends on whether the parties can think of them. After exhausting my brains, I finally came up with a plan to secretly help Shaman but prevent the old marquis from raising any objections.
While Taotao was adapting to the "Dragon Power" of the Bone Dragon, I arranged for Samantha to stay with them every day, so that he could get used to this feeling and, with my support, try to offset the negative effects of the "Dragon Power". The promotion challenge limited the scope of the battle, and the terrain should be relatively simple. I could dispatch more than a dozen Bone Dragons to spread over the sky above the challenge location. The strength of the old Marquis was about the upper level of level eight, and he would also be affected by the "Dragon Power". Although his level was two levels higher than Samantha, under the influence of various factors, facing the "Dragon Power", he would never be as comfortable as Samantha, and the negative impact should be greater. The Bone Dragon just stayed quietly nearby and did not intervene in the war. Moreover, the effect of the "Dragon Power" was fair to Samantha and the old Marquis, and did not deliberately target or help either side. It was not considered a violation of the rules, so the old Marquis had no excuse to terminate the challenge.
In addition, since the promotion challenge has a specific scope, both parties are not allowed to cross the boundary, and the challenge area negotiated by the two parties is generally a remote place where there are no other undead activities, but there is no hard and fast rule. As long as you don't intervene in the battle, it is not considered a violation. After the challenge begins, I can mobilize some corpse wizards to guard outside the battle area. Once Shaman is injured, I can find a way to temporarily get rid of the old marquis and grab a little time to rush to the border. I will first make the corpse wizard dying, and then throw it over, so that Shaman can absorb its soul energy to heal the injury and replenish the loss after killing it. Although the level of the corpse wizard is too low and can't replenish much each time, it is impossible to leave Shaman too much time to eat in a fierce battle. The soul energy of the corpse wizard is just right. It is better to replenish it a few more times than nothing. In addition, "Blood Transformation" has the effect of greatly increasing the blood essence of the life force. It can be performed twice a day. The promotion challenge is arranged at the end of the day, so it can be performed at least four times. With enough backup support, a war of attrition will be fought, and the old marquis will be exhausted to death.
To be more precise, this should be called the reasonable use of relevant rules. After a few days of practice, I felt that the cooperation was already quite proficient, so Shaman approached the old marquis, proposed the challenge of promotion, agreed on the time of the challenge, used the secret method of the vampire fangs, and designated the specific challenge location. Everything was carried out according to the regulations. Shaman had the full support of me, the necromancer, and even more than a dozen lower-level ninth-level bone dragons. I didn't believe that I couldn't beat this lonely old bachelor.
The challenge of advancement began, and the old marquis showed no mercy. He bullied Shaman, who was not as strong as him, and rushed forward to launch a fierce attack. Such a challenge is usually a matter of life and death, and he would never give in. Shaman and the old marquis fought for several rounds, and as I expected, Shaman was inferior to his opponent in terms of strength, agility, and skill power. He was forced to fall behind and could only defend himself without much power to fight back.
At this time, it was the turn of the bone dragons to appear. More than 20 bone dragons flew over and hovered over the battle area, but tried to keep a certain distance and not get close to them to interfere with their battle. Then, they used all their strength to activate the "Dragon Power", bringing both Sama and the old marquis into the range of the "Dragon Power", and followed them closely, making it impossible for them to escape.
Facing the "Dragon Power", the old marquis was indeed affected much more than Shaman, and his performance was a little abnormal, and his legs and hands would tremble from time to time, missing some good opportunities to attack. Shaman, who used "Blood Transformation", took advantage of the situation to turn the situation around a little. Although still at a disadvantage, he was no longer passively defending, and had enough energy to launch a counterattack, which was able to cause some trouble to the old marquis and cause him some damage.
With the effect of "Dragon's Might" and blood mist, Saman had a chance to temporarily escape the pursuit of the old marquis, rush to the border to enjoy the corpse witches I provided to it, fight and replenish while competing with the old marquis. Under this delay and rise, the unfavorable situation was slowly reversed and the dawn of victory was seen.
