Chapter 279 The Lich in the Manor Basement
“The traces of a drop of blood contain 377 points of source of essence. Even if it is not the goddess of the moon, it must be other gods.”
Karl Shuang Eyes bright, Examining the spearhead in his hand:
"Although it is incomplete, the shape is exactly the same as what I saw on the murals on Tortuga Island. It should be true."
"Killing Gods Spear!”
The God-killing Spear is the product of mortals.
It is a weapon made out of desperation by humans from another world in order to resist the oppression of gods.
What a pity.
The resistance of the human race was ruthlessly suppressed by the gods, and even that period of history was lost in the long river of time. Only the ruins of Tortuga left some records.
On the contrary, this weapon became a symbol of the gods' civil war, and it can be regarded as indirectly completing its mission.
Rather than talking about weapons, it is better to say that the God-killing Spear is a kind of strange poison, a kind of strange poison that relies on faith.
To ordinary people, it is just an ordinary weapon, even rusty.
But for the gods who swallow up the faith and survival of believers, it is a strange poison that is difficult to get rid of.
Even beings such as the Moon Goddess who have reached the realm of the Lord God are still nailed to the void by it.
Shaking his head, Karl put the spearhead fragment aside and looked at his data panel.
Name: Carl
Physique: 45.3
Mental power: 42.2
Essence: 445
Such a number of Sefirah, even ten to one Proportion can also increase a numerical value by dozens.
If you get it early...
"Hey!"
"It's useless to think too much."
After thinking for a moment, the value in the mental power column jumped slightly, and in an instant We’ve reached level 50.
Fifty points of spiritual power means a three-ring wizard.
For advancement, the three-ring wizard is the easiest. After all, Karl has constructed the three-ring wizard as early as the second level.
"Boom!"
Like an oil barrel being lit on fire, the rushing mental power roared out from the center of his eyebrows and swept towards his limbs and bones.
In a flash.
The world seems to have fallen into chaos, and everything is mixed together, like a chicken or a fetal egg. A bright light is bred inside. Suddenly the chaos breaks and the bright light bursts out. At this point, earth, fire, wind and water are born, and everything emerges.
Three rings!
This breakthrough was unprecedentedly smooth, with almost no obstacles, and the boundary was crossed like a smooth flow.
Karl’s body was suspended in the air, with flames lingering around him, and his eyes burst into thunder, as if a god descended from heaven.
"Is this the three-ring wizard?"
He raised his hand and looked at his palm, and a feeling of being in control of everything came naturally to his mind.
A wave of his hand.
A fire dragon roared out.
A thought came to mind.
A fireball several meters in diameter appeared above the head and quickly compressed into the size of a table tennis ball.
Although the size has changed, the power has not been weakened at all, and it has even become stronger due to compression.
"The power of the law of fire!"
Karl said in deep thought:
"The inheritance of the Secret Order is indeed extraordinary. Having just advanced to the third-ring wizard, you can master the power of the law. If you practice Other inheritances should not be done until the middle stage of the third ring. To this point."
"Now, I don't need to build a magic circuit. The first-level fire witchcraft of the natural school can be activated instantly, and the second-level witchcraft is not too troublesome."
Step by step, his understanding of wizards is getting deeper and deeper.
"The wizard apprentice builds a spell circuit, masters spell-casting skills, and increases mental power; the formal wizard's spirit undergoes transformation, perceives the astral world, and explores the principles of witchcraft; the second-level wizard moves closer to the star world..."
"And The three-ring wizard has completely transformed, reshaped his physical body with spiritual power, and can walk in the star realm to a certain extent, becoming a 'star creature'."
No wonder the wizard looks down on the knight.
No matter how strong the knight is, he cannot use the energy of the astral realm to travel through various worlds and grasp the truth of the universe.
“Even gods are not as convenient as wizards in this regard.”
Although gods can go to other worlds, their strength will be greatly reduced if they leave their own kingdom and their believers. Therefore, if the gods want to go to any world, they often let their relatives clear the way and expand their beliefs.
After coming back to his senses, Karl sighed again.
"What a pity!"
"There are gods in the Eastern Kingdom of the main world, and wizards cannot use the energy of the astral world at all. The other world also has the barrier of the Moon Goddess, and its strength is also limited. I will still go to the Wizarding Continent in the future..."
"I didn't expect that the increase in mental power can actually cause certain changes in the physical body."
The physical fitness value has not increased, but the body is more flexible and certain complex movements can be completed easily.
Also.
It means the affinity to flame increases.
If there are fire-attribute martial arts, Karl can master them quickly, and they are more powerful than others. Turning his hand over, a magical skill called the 'Vulcan Halberd' appeared in his palm.
"The magical skills cultivated by the Vulcan bloodline..."
"Even if you can't practice, you can still try to integrate into the hands of Ten Thousand Buddhas to increase the power of my palm skills."
"Now. ! ”
“Resolve historical issues ”

Manor.
Wearing a white robe, Karl slowly walked down the stairs and came to the basement door full of runes.
After pondering for a moment, he reached out and touched the door gently.
"Wow..."
With his movement, the runes on the door disappeared like spring snow melting, revealing a dark red door leaf.
Knocking lightly on the door, Karl smiled and pushed the door open.
No one has come in the basement for who knows how many years. It is full of cobwebs and filled with a damp atmosphere.
“Da… da…”
Footsteps sounded in an orderly manner.
Karl flicked his fingers, and several soft halos of light appeared around him, illuminating the entire field.
There were not many things in the dark basement, only a row of wardrobes against the wall and a desk.
There is a painting hanging on the wall behind the desk.
The appearance of the person in the painting is very familiar to Karl. He is none other than Addison, the gray-robed wizard and Lord of the Black Swamp.
"We meet again."
Looking at the portrait in the painting, Karl sighed softly:
"The three caves of the cunning rabbit are indeed true. He faked his death in the black swamp and possessed himself in the magic forest. There are still people here. There is a trace of residual soul."
"Huh..."
Before he finished speaking, a dark wind suddenly blew in the field, and the face in the portrait blinked as if it came alive. Blinked.
Um?
Karl frowned, and the next moment he found himself in front of an ancient manor.
"Illusion?"
"So real!"
"I remember you." An old voice came from the manor:
"I was a wizard apprentice decades ago. Who would have thought that you would become a three-ring wizard in such a short period of time?"
"Yes." Karl shook his sleeves, and a staff appeared in his palm, pointing toward the manor. The figure inside looked:
"No wonder I always felt something was wrong and never came down. You are actually a third-level remnant soul!"
If you come down early, in the illusion mode prepared by the other party If not, he might not even be able to escape.
Of course.
That was before.
Now he is a third-level wizard, and the other party is just a remnant soul of a third-level lich.
That’s right!
The gray robe wizard Addison appears to be a second-level wizard, but is actually a third-level lich.
“I come from the continent of Kalim and am a wandering wizard.”
Addison looked at Karl and said slowly:
"Due to a special experience, I was transported to this wizarding restricted area and was trapped here. In order to free myself from the restraints, I had to think of other ways. , the Addison you met was cultivated by a part of my consciousness.”
“Karl!”
"You must have your own destiny to become a three-ring wizard. However, I have lived for nearly eight hundred years, and there is always some knowledge and experience that you do not have. Why don't you and I join forces? As long as you help me get out of the current predicament, I am willing to Leave everything I know to you."
"No need." Karl raised the staff in his hand:
"I have a way to check your memory."
"..." Addison's face darkened:
"It seems that you think you have defeated me."
Huh?
Karl narrowed his eyes and his heart suddenly sank.
Oops!
I'm afraid I was a little careless this time.
The aura emerging from the other party was so powerful that it was beyond his expectation. It was far from the early stage of the third ring.
When Addison's strength is intact, he may be a late third-level or even fourth-level great wizard.
Fortunately...
The other party only has a residual soul left.
Even if there are some means, Karl is not afraid, at most he will pay a price, but it turns out that the price is far more serious than he imagined.
