Chapter 315: Drawing Energy
As someone who has personally experienced how it feels when the addiction erupts, Zhang Cheng is undoubtedly very aware of how difficult the process can be.
If measured according to the classification of pain levels on the Internet, then the demon addiction definitely exceeds the twelfth level, reaching the level of directly hitting the soul, especially driven by instinct, the body's incomparable desire for pure energy, in just a few seconds will break the dam called reason.
So Varna Morningsong's almost audacious and crazy move wasn't worth the fuss.
If someone had taken out a bottle of well water during the time of the World of A Song of Ice and Fire, he might have gone even further.
In contrast, the female elf only transforms the desire for energy into subconscious desire to vent it, which can be said to be restrained and can no longer be restrained.
Look at the madmen in Silvermoon City who are desperately sucking everything that can absorb magical energy, and you can know how terrible the destruction of demonic addiction is on the willpower of intelligent beings.
In particular, the blood elves sucked a lot of the magic energy used by the Burning Legion demons, which directly caused the color of their pupils to change from the original beautiful violet to a strange dark green in the future, and some of them even oversucked to produce an appearance similar to the evil orcs, for example, the skin showed a strange red, and the surface was densely covered with various bone spurs.
Of course, Zhang Cheng was not at all interested in Silvermoon City, which was destined to join the clan camp in the future, he was only interested in the skills that Illidan taught them to absorb energy.
Don't think that sucking energy is no big deal, on the contrary, this technique is very versatile, and can absorb almost all forms of magical energy, whether it is arcane, light, elemental, natural, evil, shadow, death, ......
In short, as long as the body can withstand it, you can suck as much as you want, and whether that amount of energy will create conflicts and make people live or crazy is another matter.
The reason why Zhang Cheng was impatient to learn this skill was mainly because Kulo Kelpa could convert all forms of energy into arcane energy and store it in his body, and once he learned it, he would be able to use this dragon as a large-capacity biological "battery", and he would no longer be afraid of the problem of being unable to recover his magic power when he traveled to another new world.
Of course, although the theory is not complicated, the practical implementation is not easy at all.
On top of that, he severely lacked the High Elves' inherently delicate magical control flowing through his veins, and each extract was either too strong or too suction, unable to stabilize the energy transmission channel.
Fortunately, he is never a person who gives up easily, and he will not lose confidence because of a little setback.
By the time the group had walked through the twilight forest for two days and were about to arrive at the Great Tomb of Crow Ridge, after hundreds of failures, he finally succeeded in extracting a small amount of death energy from a skull phalanx for the first time.
Feeling the cold and dark power surrounding the palm of his hand, Zhang Cheng slightly curled the corners of his mouth and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Success! It seems that some plans can enter the actual operation stage......
"What are you muttering?" Varna Morning Song, who had been with her all the time, leaned closer and blinked curiously.
Zhang Cheng smiled and shook his head: "No, it's nothing, I'm just admiring Illidan Fury as the person who knows the Burning Legion demons best." If I'm not mistaken, the inspiration for this energy-draining technique is believed to have come from the Hellhounds, which are said to be a magical demon that not only disrupts the flow of magic in the caster's body, but also restores their own injuries by devouring spells. ”
"Damn! Don't mention them in front of me! These guys are simply mage's nemesis! By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, you know that it's impossible for humans to learn except for elves, and you have performed a miracle and completed the first energy drain in just two days. I'm now beginning to believe that you're going to be the most outstanding spellcaster in Dalaran in the future. ”
When she said this, Varna Chenge's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she did not hide the appreciation and amazement on her face.
She had witnessed the other party's clumsy attempts at the beginning, and then became proficient and successful, and the terrifying speed of progress was completely indescribable.
After all, elves with a long lifespan were not as eager to study magic as humans, but Zhang Cheng's persistence and dedication far surpassed that of any human mage she had ever seen.
"Thank you for the compliment. But the future is too far away, and I prefer to be down-to-earth and gain strength little by little than looking forward to the future. Also, I don't know if you notice it, the closer you get to Raven Ridge, the greater the weight of death and shadow energy. As he spoke, Zhang Cheng looked into the distance.
Although it was noon, when the sun was at its fullest, the sky in front of us seemed to be fixed at midnight, and there was no light in the sky at all, only boundless darkness.
Varna Chenge spread her hands nonchalantly: "Maybe it's the effect of some kind of dark magic, or maybe it's some kind of terrible curse, who knows." Anyway, I think so many corpses come back from the dead, and a powerful magic item is definitely needed. ”
"Hehe, then let's conduct a little experiment to see if we can force out the real culprit behind the scenes. Zhang Cheng sneered and reached into his waist bag and held a bottle of specially adjusted magic plague.
Before he could take out the dangerous jar of gadgets, Althea, who was walking at the front of the line, suddenly stopped, turned around and shouted, "Your Excellency, Master! We're here! We're in front of Crow Ridge! Although according to the report from two weeks ago, there are no signs of the undead in the houses that were originally inhabited on the periphery, I think it's better to be careful and compare prices." ”
"What do you suggest?" asked Zhang Cheng bluntly.
"I think it's better to send someone to investigate ...... first"
Before Althea could finish her words, a dark shadow suddenly flashed through the window of one of the broken houses.
"Be careful!"
"There's something!"
"It can't be an undead, right?"
......
The vigilant night watchmen drew their weapons and prepared for battle.
But just as they were about to rush up and block the front and back doors of the house, a man in tattered linen clothes ran out of it, and as he ran, he begged weakly: "Eat...... Eat! Give me something to eat! Anything! I'm going to starve!"
"Living?!" Althea was visibly taken aback.
She couldn't believe that this place, less than two kilometers from the Great Tomb, could still be inhabited by living humans.
"Hungry...... ......The man seemed to have been dominated by primitive instinct in his mind, and his eyes burst out with green light.
One of the night watchmen, realizing that the other party was about to go crazy with hunger, hurriedly pulled out a few pieces of bread and jerky and handed them over.
The former didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and when he took it, he desperately stuffed it into his mouth, and several times almost choked himself to death because he didn't chew it......
