Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Third Wave of Monsters
I don't know how far the competition between the two alliances will develop, but Cheng Shen doesn't want to care about these things, if there is no strange existence, just face the threat of monsters, he may still intervene.
Right now? He couldn't even save his own life......
Hang up the communication.
Cheng Shen glanced at the time that came with the system, and suddenly fell into deep thought.
In fact, he asked Zhang Yao to help with this for another purpose.
Now it is:
Fifteen minutes past twelve.
But he remembered clearly that Zhang Yao had personally mentioned it to him fifteen minutes ago, and his time had reached half past one.
Is there something wrong with his watch?
Or rather,
He's in an area that doesn't coincide with normal survivors?
However, he mentioned that the bell tower of the castle struck twelve o'clock punctually.
In other words, the time of the castle is right, and there is a problem with the time of Zhang Yao's own existence......
Will the system have such glitch errors......?
Cheng Shen originally had doubts that Zhang Yao was a person living in the future or the past, and even doubted the authenticity of his existence.
But he was able to communicate with everyone without barriers......
Cheng Shen was also a little confused.
I thought about it.
He still didn't break this problem with Zhang Yao.
At least, the rewards received from him now are real.
Cheng Shen took out the stewed rabbit leg meat and devoured it, enjoying the delicious taste while his maximum health was gradually rising.
[Max HP +5!] 】
[Max HP +7!] 】
[The maximum health bonus that can be enjoyed has been reached!] 】
……
It wasn't until the system gave a prompt that Cheng Shen stopped eating.
His health limit was directly increased by a hundred points.
And that's not all.
The increase in health seems to increase his physical strength at the same time.
He only felt that there was a flame burning in his body, as if he had inexhaustible strength, and if there were other people around, he could even see a faint circle of blood-colored flames burning around him, which was unusually conspicuous in the dark night.
"Is health the life force......
Cheng Shen enjoys this feeling.
The surging vitality seemed to keep some kind of shadowy energy from approaching.
"Goo?"
The Soul Eater curled up by the campfire and looked at him curiously, and then, as if aware of something, its body shook, and immediately transformed into a little girl in ragged clothes with a thin yellow face, and her eyes were pitiful.
"You ...... guy"
Cheng Shen looked at the stew with half a bowl left in his hand and said helplessly.
He did hesitate just now, because Da Meng was helping him more at this stage, and giving him this half bowl of stew would bring him great benefits whether it was to improve his strength or loyalty.
But take a long-term view.
Surely, it's more valuable to cultivate the Soul Eater.
"Eat clean, don't waste it...... it, spit it out! ”
As soon as Cheng Shen handed over the bowl, he saw that the corners of the Spirit Devouring Insect's mouth were directly grinning to the back of his head, opening a big mouth with an extremely terrifying arc, and swallowing the bowl with meat in an instant, and he burped with satisfaction after the incident.
"You scumbag! That bowl was taken out of that castle, and maybe it would be worth researching! ”
Cheng Shen was annoyed.
But the Spirit Eater didn't seem to understand his words anymore, and just looked at him innocently with big watery eyes.
"Hiccup~"
[Hint: Soul Eater Loyalty +10!] 】
……
Swish!
The system prompt has just passed.
A golden light flashed across the Soul Eater's body.
It was upgraded.
Cheng Shen also remembered to check the panel properties of the Spirit Devourer at this time.
This little guy secretly ate the corpses of many monsters in two defensive battles, and grew faster than he imagined.
【Soul Eater】
【Demon】
[Affiliation: Survivor Camp No. 404]
[Level: Normal (can grow)]
[Level: 8]
[Loyalty: 75]
[Status: Satisfied (temporary)]
[HP: 100%]
[Mana: 300/300]
[Constitution: 8]
[Wisdom: 8]
[Power: 8]
[Dexterity: 8]
[Charm: 8 (-999)]
【Lucky:1】
【Talents】
[Soul Eater: Passive, the Soul Eater will disguise itself as the most harmless under normal conditions, greatly increasing the charm attribute. The Soul Eater can grow to a higher form by devouring the flesh, soul, and equipment of other units.
【Skills】
[Camouflage: Active, consumes 30 mana points, can be disguised as the same kind of designated target, non-advanced detection ability cannot be recognized, lasts 8 minutes, cools down for half an hour]
[Devour: Active, consumes 10 mana, deals 15 (+32) bite damage to the target, if the target is successfully killed, the consumed mana will be restored, and the devouring damage will be permanently increased by 1]
……
Before you know it, it's already mixed up to level 8.
Cheng Shen remembered that at the end of the first wave, it was only level 3, and it seemed that devouring the corpses of those unicorn fairies had brought it a great boost.
maybe
It secretly ate something else......
Cheng Shenhu stared at it suspiciously for a while, but he couldn't see anything.
The biggest improvement brought by the upgrade of the Soul Eater is to extend the duration of the camouflage skill, and the optimization of the talent, Cheng Shen now looks at the little girl who has changed it, and she can't see that there are too obvious alienation characteristics.
It also has a significant increase in IQ.
I just can't speak yet.
In contrast,
Its base stat growth is much worse than that of other units.
For example, Da Meng, as a fine-level unit, the total value of the five basic attributes of his level 1 panel has reached 23 points.
is its attribute at level 5.
In terms of fighting, I'm afraid that the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Monkey can't count on it.
Cheng Shen couldn't help but think,
Perhaps the Spirit Eater itself is not a unit that is good at fighting, and its role should be reflected in other conveniences......
Like what
...... used as a trash can that can dispose of waste indefinitely?
Two hours passed quickly.
Before the siege.
Cheng Shen took another risk and strengthened the contract of the dead through his talent.
The drowning skeleton that is now summoned is a level 10 unit, which has reached the maximum level of a normal unit.
But the sealing capacity of the Deceased Pact has not yet reached its limit.
However, for the sake of insurance, Cheng Shen was not prepared to continue to strengthen the parchment scroll, even if he guessed that evolving the drowning skeleton to the elite level might improve by leaps and bounds, but the risk of this thing was too great after all.
The remaining hour is spent recuperating.
Cheng Shen emptied his brain and tried not to think about anything while ensuring that he would not fall asleep, so that his spirit would always remain in good condition.
With the sound of a trombone echoing in the heavenly vault.
The siege began.
[The third wave of monster attacks has arrived! 】
[This attacker: Tiger warriors!] 】
[Quantity: 60!] 】
【Warning! Elite units appear among the siege enemies this time, and the presence of elites will greatly enhance the offensive desire of ordinary enemies, so please kill them first! The elite unit that appeared this time is: Tiger Clan Mage! 】
