Chapter 35: A Leap in Strength
As soon as Zhuang Yichen walked to the entrance of the village, three Sinking Demons roared and rushed up. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com] [Burning Library (7764)] Zhuang Yichen looked at their clumsy appearance waving big sticks, and suddenly felt that they were quite cute, these are all magic crystals sent to the door! Zhuang Yichen couldn't help grinning, and then shook his hand and killed the middle one with a bone spur. The thick skin and strong muscles that can block bullets on the Fallen Demon are of little use in the face of true magic, and the armor-piercing properties attached to the bone spurs can easily pierce a hole in its body. Then the ghoul skeleton was also released by Zhuang Yichen, the sinking demon is the kind of monster that accelerates and runs quickly, but the body movement in a small area is very slow. So before they could rush in front of Zhuang Yichen, the ghoul skeleton's claws had already cut their throats neatly.
After easily harvesting the three Sinking Demons, Zhuang Yichen's mood couldn't help but improve. He walked up and dug out the magic crystals from the back of the Sinking Demon's mind, and then continued to walk forward. Because of Jiangcheng's breakout action, most of the monsters here were attracted to the past. Zhuang Yichen didn't encounter a sinking demon for a long time, the whole village was very quiet, people were eaten by monsters, and the monsters ran away after eating. He casually pushed open the door of a house, and then walked inside, deciding to refine the three magic crystals now and then carefully search the rest of the village.
He pushed the door and entered, the family looked quite wealthy, the exquisite two-story building was covered with white tiles, the decoration in the room was the same as that of the buildings in the city, and all kinds of electrical appliances were available in the house. The door of the house was not locked, and although Zhuang Yichen felt a little strange, he didn't think much about it. He entered a bedroom on the second floor, then put the Sunken Demon Skeleton and the Ghoul Skeleton outside the door to stand guard, closed the door and began to cultivate.
The refining process was smooth, and after about two hours, these three magic crystals were all absorbed by Zhuang Yichen. After refining the magic crystal, the source of magic power in Zhuang Yichen's body suddenly increased by more than two times. The source of magic power in his body suddenly increased so much, Zhuang Yichen felt a faint pain in his lower abdomen. It seems that the limit of what his body can withstand now is three magic crystals. He continued to cultivate for a while, until all the impetuous sources of magic in his body were calmed down, and then he entered the inheritance of the Tower of the Dead to learn new magic.
This time, the underlying magic on the magic tree was almost lit up, Zhuang Yichen carefully flipped through it, and finally chose the two magic spells of frost armor and demon tentacles. Although he was very fond of the weakened and poisoned magic of one of the groups in the curse chapter, he had to give up for the time being, considering that what he lacked most was the means of defense.
When his mind returned to his body, Zhuang Yichen opened his eyes excitedly. I didn't expect to learn two new magic at once this time, which is really a surprise! He couldn't wait to use the frost armor to try, and with the condensation of Zhuang Yichen's spiritual power, a layer of ice-blue ice armor appeared on Zhuang Yichen's body in an instant, and the armor was all composed of crystal clear ice, which just protected the vital parts of Zhuang Yichen's body. It's just that with the appearance of this armor, the source of magic power in Zhuang Yichen's body began to consume rapidly like water leaking from the bottom of a basin, and it was only for four or five seconds that his face turned a little pale. Zhuang Yichen had to quickly cut off the supply of mana. He estimated that with his current mana source reserves, the frost armor would be drained from it if it only lasted about ten seconds. The other magic demon tentacle is simpler, it is a trap-like spell that can be constructed with a dark element, several tentacles protruding from the ground to grab the enemy's feet, making the enemy unable to move. In this way, Zhuang Yichen is all equipped with output, defense, and control. The combination of these magic spells has completely raised his strength to a notch.
After finishing his cultivation, Zhuang Yichen, who had gained a lot, couldn't help but relax. As soon as he leaned back, he collapsed on the bed in the bedroom. As soon as he lay down, a faint fragrance reached Zhuang Yichen's nose, and he noticed that the bedroom he was staying in was a girl's boudoir. The curtains, sheets, and quilts in the room were all pale pink, and there was a brown bear on the bookcase next to the bed. Zhuang Yichen casually flipped through the books on the desk, all of which were ninth-grade physics and mathematics, as well as a failing math exam paper. "Hmm~ another cute little girl who worries about math~" he smiled softly and muttered to himself. When I think of my middle school days, I can't help but feel softer.
Then he closed the door and walked out. Because he saw that there was a set of clothes that had just been changed and not yet packed up by the girl's bedside. The light-colored girl's bra is stacked on a white T-shirt printed with a girl's comic, exuding a different kind of ambiguity in such a pale pink environment, pure and evil. Zhuang Yichen didn't want to let himself have some uncontrollable thoughts in his heart. In any case, he wanted to wish this strange girl a good life, and if she had already reached heaven, then she should not blaspheme the dead like this.
Out of the room, Zhuang Yichen saw that the sky outside the window had darkened, so he planned to rest here for the night first, and the search for the Sinking Demon would continue until the next day. He locked the door, tightened the curtains and held them in place, then simply cleaned up the other bedroom, and when it was all done, he went into the kitchen. Thankfully, the kitchen is full of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, as well as a small bag of sprouted potatoes, and the kitchen is still filled with canned liquefied gas. Looking at all this, Zhuang Yichen couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he was finally able to eat a meal for everyone!
He peeled and cleaned up the small bag of potatoes with green shoots, and then washed the dust from a pot on the stove. What the? You say that sprouted potatoes are poisonous and can't be eaten? Joke, Zhuang Yichen is still afraid of this bit of poison for a necromancer? Soon he cleaned everything up, lit the fire, poured the oil, and took some peanuts from the storage space and put them in the pot. As the oil temperature rises a little bit, the peanuts in the pot are ripe. He took a deep breath of the most disgusting smell of oil smoke on weekdays, and then poured the sliced potato slices and rice cakes into the pot and stir-fried them with a bang.
For a while, the small kitchen was full of fragrance, and the sound of the collision between the frying spoon and the bottom of the pot echoed in the empty room, so those dusty windowsills, coffee tables, sofas, and TVs suddenly had a little more fireworks. Stir-fry until eight ripe, Zhuang Yichen put some monosodium glutamate in the pot, sprinkled a little salt, and finally added two large tablespoons of chili powder. A pot of spicy fried rice cakes is completed, and the boiled rice cakes that have been eaten for more than half a month can finally change their taste.
Zhuang Yichen put the rice cakes in the pot into a big bowl, and then sat on the sofa and ate it in a big gulp. He has been running for life and death since the end of the world, and now he can finally relax once. Soon Zhuang Yichen solved the big bowl of fried rice cakes by two, he licked his lips full of chili oil, and went to sleep after burping contentedly. With ghouls and spenders guarding the door, he didn't have to worry about safety.
There was nothing to say all night, and Zhuang Yichen slept directly until dawn without even dreaming. He got up and stretched comfortably, then slouched out of bed. The gray fog in the sky had almost dissipated, and the sunlight could already be filtered, although it was as blurry as a veil, but at least it could leave a shadow.
After Zhuang Yichen left this house, he headed directly towards the meteorite landing point in the center of the village, and now there should be some sunken demons who have not left near the meteorite landing site. The closer he got to the meteorite, the more Zhuang Yichen could feel bursts of strong magic fluctuations. The meteorite was roughly oval in shape and only about ten meters in diameter. Even if the meteorite was all hollow, it wouldn't be able to accommodate so many monsters. What's more, if such a huge meteorite really burned through the atmosphere from outer space and then landed, it would have been the same size as an asteroid. If the number of meteorites that landed in Jiangcheng alone was enough to destroy the earth, how could it just provoke a slight seismic wave? He felt that the meteorite must be just a passage to transport monsters, and there must be something else in it.
The village is not large, and it didn't take long for Zhuang Yichen to reach the edge of the meteorite, and the buildings here have basically been destroyed by the seismic waves dropped by the meteorite. Zhuang Yichen was just about to get close to the meteorite and take a closer look at it, when an elite Sinking Demon suddenly rushed out from among the ruins of a small two-story building. It held a crude scimitar in its hand, and overall it looked many times stronger than a normal Sink Demon. Zhuang Yichen didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly summoned all the ghouls and demon skeletons under his command, and ordered them to rush towards the elite demon of destruction. Zhuang Yichen had also seen many elite Sinking Demons before, their strength was much greater than that of ordinary Sinking Demons, but their sensitivity was not much stronger than that of ordinary Sinking Demons. Zhuang Yichen originally wanted to solve it directly with bone spurs, even if its defense was much stronger than that of ordinary Sinking Demons, it was nothing more than a waste of a few more bone spurs. The Reflexes of the Fallen Demon are too slow, and it can't avoid a magic as swift as a bone spur.
But soon Zhuang Yichen changed his mind, he watched the elite Sinking Demon brutally knock the Sinking Demon skeleton to the side and then rushed over, and suddenly had the idea of using it to practice magic. In this way, the skin is rough, the flesh is thick, and the monster is unresponsive, so it is the best target.
