Chapter Seventy-Five: Escalation
Golden monsters are constantly appearing, and they are becoming more and more numerous and larger. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Fortunately, the strength of the monster has never exceeded Du Shen too much. And the skeletons around Du Shen are numerous enough to block the monsters tightly. Therefore, for a while, Du Shen was able to quietly pay attention to the changes in the axis crystal.
The crystals vaporize and the mist rises. In the blink of an eye, the crystal pillar, which was more than ten meters long and thicker than a person, was only the size of an arm. The crystals float automatically, and no longer need the support of skeletons. Du Shen sent all the skeletons to block the actinized monsters and walked to the crystal alone.
The black fog produced by the vaporization gradually thinned. The crystals are still shrinking, but more and more slowly. Du Shen found that the shaft crystal showed signs of melting entirely. He reached out to take the crystal out of the realm so that it wouldn't evaporate completely.
Before his fingers touched the crystal, Du Shen suddenly withdrew his hand. He looked back and saw obvious burns on his fingers. Before touching the crystal, his finger was already wounded. If it is really touched, Du Shen is worried that his hand will be completely destroyed.
Du Shen hurriedly contacted the "shadow" in the pendant and asked the other party for help. Shadow regretfully said that the axis crystal had been transformed into a semi-energy state, and he was unable to collect it.
Du Shen Da Urgent: The axis crystal in front of him has melted into a ball, only the size of a basketball, and it is still volatile.
In a matter of minutes, the shaft crystal will evaporate. Du Shen gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk.
Shaft crystals are precious and have always been closely protected by various forces. Du Shen estimated that he would not be able to obtain other shaft crystals in the short term. So, in the absence of other auxiliary materials. Du Shen still summoned the Nai He Bead, absorbed the half-empty crystal melt, and directly tried to fuse.
I didn't see anything unusual. Instead, the surrounding monsters were frantically attacking, and they were collectively stunned, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Du Shen glanced and found that there were less than five hundred skeletons left, and all of them were injured. Many of the skeletons looked miserable, as if they were about to fall apart at any moment.
The surroundings were quiet, and Du Shen waited silently. It didn't take long for Nai Hezhu, who was floating on his shoulders, to take the initiative to submerge into Du Shen's body. Du Shen's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly called up the interactive interface and checked it.
Nai Ho Zhu successfully advanced. Under the premise that Du Shen's spiritual attributes have not changed, the number of subordinates has increased from 300 to 450. The fine control range has been expanded from a radius of 180 meters to 270 meters. The Force's collection range has been increased from a radius of 900 meters to a radius of 1350 meters.
Because of the successful promotion, in the future, with the growth of Du Shen's spiritual attributes, the improvement of Nai He Zhu's ability will become even greater.
Du Shen continued to read the data and was stunned. He felt a scoop of cold water dripping down from the top of his head in an instant.
Du Shen found that the template of the skeleton warrior showed "damaged". He hurriedly mobilized the Force stored in the Naho bead and tried to create a skeleton.
No skeletons appear. Du Shen only received a response from Nai He Zhu: the function is damaged, and he can't make skeleton warriors.
"How could this be!" Du Shen couldn't help but lose his soul.
A similar situation was seen by Du Shen in his previous life. Luck in the previous life, it was not that Du Shen's Nai He Zhu function was impaired. Instead, it was in collaboration with Du Shen, and the Force Orb of another defector apostle was damaged.
The Force Orb resembles the human body and cannot be eaten indiscriminately. At least it is like Du Shen's eyes, the function is impaired, and it has been missing since then. In the worst case, it will be directly destroyed and reduced to waste.
The skeleton template is Du Shen's biggest reliance at present. Du Shen restrained his mind and thought about countermeasures.
Du Shen's eyes lit up, and he suddenly rushed to the depths of the secret realm. The skeletons around him, naturally, follow closely.
The scene in the secret realm changed rapidly like a marquee. Du Shen ran with all his strength along the various roads that appeared and disappeared under his feet.
It didn't take long for Du Shen to find the broken stone platform. On the surface of the stone platform, a large number of transparent crystals are still placed. Du Shen ordered the surviving skeleton subordinates to destroy and excavate the stone platform with all their might.
The skeleton's bone sword had just touched the stone platform. The space around them twisted and vibrated rapidly. A large number of light beasts suddenly appeared. They looked extremely angry and rushed towards Du Shen in a frenzy.
Fortunately, there were quite a few skeletons around Du Shen, and they still surrounded him tightly. The light beast collided with the skeleton, and was once again stopped by the skeletons on the periphery.
Du Shen urged his subordinates to speed up while destroying the stone platform with his own hands. The stone platform was already full of cracks, and it was quickly dismantled by Du Shen and his subordinates. Du Shen was in the center of the stone platform and found a glowing plant.
The plants were exposed, and the surrounding light beasts looked even more crazy. They let out an earth-shattering roar one after another.
Du Shen was overjoyed, seeing that the light beast was about to break through the protective circle. He didn't care about the consequences. Du Shen summoned Nai He Zhu and swallowed the plant directly.
The plant disappeared, and Du Shen felt that his eyes were flowering, and there was chaos around him. The roar of the monster was gone, and there was a dead silence all around. Du Shen felt that he was in mid-air, constantly falling downward.
Unable to control his body, Du Shen waited and watched for the time being. He silently hoped that the pearl would transform for the better.
The Force Orb is like a tree. Du Shen's transformation and promotion of it is like grafting other branches on the branches of a tree to produce new fruits. At this time, the time from the Nai He Zhu fusion axis crystal is still short, and Du Shen can try to continue the transformation.
I don't know how long it has been, Du Shen is still in chaos and still falling. He suddenly received a response from Nai Ho Zhu: the fusion has been completed.
Du Shen opens the interactive interface and first checks the number of templates. Because she was successfully promoted to level 3 before, Naho Zhu got a new blank template. At this point, after fusing the glowing plants, the new manufacturing template was still preserved.
Du Shen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: this upgrade, the most important gain, is not missing.
Du Shen also checked the population limit, control distance, and energy harvesting range. Three important data, again without loss. Du Shen couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Du Shen checked the ghost template: the template is normal. He called up the skeleton template and secretly hoped that "the number of templates is limited, each one is very precious, and it must be restored!"
Soon, Du Shen was pleased to find that the "damaged" prompt of the skeleton template had disappeared. He carefully examined the template data, and was stunned for a moment, as if he was happy and sad.
Du Shen found that the attribute data of the skeleton template had not changed. However, the description of its skill has changed a lot: the "sturdy" skill of the skeleton has not changed. Its "Heavy Split" skill shows "Damaged" and "Missing Effect".
In other words, the skeleton newly created by Du Shen will lose the skill of "heavy splitting". The skeleton's bone sword is inherently slender and lightweight. In previous battles, it was thanks to this skill that it was able to exert powerful slash damage. Losing "Heavy Split", the skeleton's main way of damage, can only rely on piercing. This will weaken quite a bit of the skeleton's combat power.
If that's all there is, Du Shen won't be happy. Du Shen found that there were two more descriptions in the skill column of the skeleton:
Glimpse, at great speed, dashing over short distances. The effect depends on the Intelligence and Agility attributes.
Heavy stab, instant burst, strengthens puncture damage. The effect depends on strength and constitution attributes.
Two new skills can be regarded as making up for the lack of "heavy splitting". As a result, Du Shen couldn't tell the difference between good and bad for a while: "Heavy Split" could make up for the skeleton's congenital defects to some extent, and the two new skills seemed to give full play to the skeleton's strengths, but they also made their attack methods extreme.
The gains and losses brought about by the change of skills, Du Shen didn't care much about it for a while. What he cares about is why this change is happening. The template attribute of the skeleton has not been improved in the slightest, why, new skills will appear?
Such a change seems to hold great promise. Du Shen was itching and just wanted to understand the principle immediately. It's a pity that Du Shen's current spiritual attributes are too low, and he hasn't even given birth to divine thoughts yet. He was unable to observe the changes in Nai Ho Zhu at the microscopic level to analyze the principle. Du Shen was so anxious that he almost scratched his ears and cheeks.
You should know that as the number of templates increases, the meaning of the existence of different templates is to have different skills. Powerful skills, and may even exert several times the destructive power of attributes.
In his previous life, Du Shen tried to give new skills to the template. It's a pity that after all kinds of attempts and massive resources, he has not been able to make the slightest progress.
However, Du Shen also found that if only the attributes of the template were improved. At a certain point, new skills may naturally appear in the template. Although the probability is very low, and the role and effect of the new skills are definitely worse than the skills that the template had at the beginning.
Emerging skills, naturally, do not appear in a vacuum. It's that the template is already there.
Take, for example, the Skeleton Soldier. Du Shen estimated that it originally had the two skills of "glimpse" and "heavy stab". It's just that when the attribute is low, because the effect of glimpses and heavy stabs is slight, it is not recognized by the evaluation system of Nai He Zhu, and it is not included and displayed. In other words, before, the effect of glimpses and heavy stabs was too slight and was ignored by Nai Hezhu on his own.
Du Shen believed that if in the future, he managed to improve the attributes of the skeleton. Glimpses and stabs produce an enhanced effect that is enough to have a considerable impact on combat. However, the bead will actively show that the skeleton has these two skills.
Du Shen was excited and annoyed for a while, and gradually calmed down. Thinking of the countless attempts and failures in his previous life, he instantly calmed down: the skills of monsters are limited to their own spiritual attributes, and there is an upper limit to the number of times they can be used per day. In other words, the more skills a monster has, the better. It's not even that the more destructive, the better.
In the future, Du Shen will definitely try to enhance the attributes of the template. Even without today's changes, sooner or later, the skeleton template will have a glimpse and a heavy thorn.
However, the beads are like big trees, and the transformation is similar to grafting. Naturally, there is a limit to the number of times it can be transformed. Du Shen believes that he should choose the most cost-effective transformation method and expand the function of Nai He Zhu as much as possible.
Therefore, Du Shen decided: when choosing template targets in the future, he should still be cautious and try to choose targets with excellent skills.
