Virus ecoregion.

"If you want to become a wizard, you must first become a knight, through the beneficial reinforcement of the virus, improve the essence of life, hunt the Extreme Devourer, swallow the beast core, and have the qualifications to open up a meditation space......"

Roman closed the book, stretched, and looked around at the one-room dormitory of less than ten square meters.

"In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and just yesterday, my life essence reached 2.0 and I was successfully promoted to knight, and next, I am going to sprint to the wizard......"

He muttered to himself, his mind drifting back to three years ago.

Three years ago, Roman was still a student of Huaxia, and by chance he crossed into this world and became the second son of a nobleman.

In this medieval world like the Western Continent, the second son is about to be kicked out of the house when he reaches adulthood, and Roman is no exception.

With a letter of introduction from his family, Roman joins the corpse hunting team, killing walking corpses day and night in the virus ecological zone.

Wizard research has shown that staying in the virus ecoregion for a long time makes it easier for knights to be promoted, but at the cost of more danger.

Thirty thousand years ago, this world was no different from the ancient earth, but one day the Mana Cataclysm suddenly broke out, and the Pole Eater was rampant everywhere, and humanity was once on the verge of extinction.

At this time, a part of humanity opened up a meditation space, became wizards, and had the ability to cast spells, and they set up academies and began to study ways to fight against the Mana ecology.

One day, the wizards decided to fight poison with poison, and through a virus, they created countless walking corpses and monsters to establish a virus ecology to compete with the Manna ecology.

And the humans who survived the virus have their bodies strengthened to varying degrees, and when the enhancement reaches a certain level, the vital essence will be improved, and they have the power of knights, and these people are called knights.

"Chip, tune up the body data that is present!"

"Ding! The task is set up, and the analysis ...... begins"

At this moment, in Roman's mind, a three-dimensional picture of his body was presented, and a beam of white light traveled on it.

After a while......

"Ding! After the analysis, the result is as follows......"

"Stamina: 3.0, Nervous Reaction Speed: 2.5, Vitality: 1.8, Soul Fullness 100%, Life Essentia: 2.0"

The chip is rooted in Roman's soul and is a welfare of time-traveling, of unknown origin, with recording and analysis functions, equivalent to a parabrain.

Through it, Roman builds a body data model to grasp the cultivation progress in real time, where 1 represents the level of ordinary people, and physical strength is 1.7, which means that physical strength is 1.7 times that of ordinary people.

However, what really determines the promotion of knights is the essence of life.

This is a comprehensive data, determined by both vitality and soul fullness, and Roman has worked hard to successfully quantify the essence of life.

The essence of life not only represents the physical energy that supports the operation of the human body, but also includes the spiritual energy such as memory and soul, and the essence of life reaches 2.0, which is an important sign of becoming a knight.

Roman clenched his fists, feeling the surging strength in his body, he felt that he could kill a cow with one punch.

However, for most aspiring humans, the challenge has only just begun.

Life Essentia 2.0 is a limit and a bottleneck, and throughout the ages, only a very few people have been able to break through and become wizards.

The reason is that the virus strengthens the vitality of the body, which belongs to the biological level, and the soul of the subject has not changed in the slightest.

As long as you stay in the virus ecological zone for a long time, it is not difficult to improve your vitality under the water mill, but the soul is different.

The virus ecoregion does not help, and if you want to break through the bottleneck of life, you must go to the Mana ecoregion.

Only by killing an Extreme Devourer and taking out the core to swallow can you successfully break through the bottleneck of the essence of life.

Eaters aren't as easy to deal with as walking corpses and diseased mutants, and the Manna ecoregion is even more dangerous.

Not to mention knights, even wizards have to be careful inside, because countless wizards have died inside.

However, Roman still decides to go because he wants to become a wizard and live a more glorious life.

"Bang Bang Bang ——!" There was a knock on the door.

Roman opened the door, and outside was a middle-aged man in leather armor with a sword in his hand, who was the leader of the corpse hunting team.

The captain smiled heartily at Roman and said kindly, "Roman, the materials and equipment have been prepared, is there anything else you need?" ”

Roman looked behind him, where several carriages were placed, the canvas of the body bulging with the supplies Roman needed.

He stepped forward to check it, and after confirming that it was correct, he gave the captain half a magic stone, and said lightly: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go." ”

After speaking, he drove the carriage towards the barracks, and the captain behind him wanted to speak again and again, and finally made up his mind and said:

"Roman, I want you to think about it again, the Manna ecoregion is very dangerous, those devourers are not weak walking corpses, there are wizards who fall there every year, listen to my advice, don't go......"

He and Roman's father were friends, and they promised to take care of Roman, and the two got along for three years, and the captain witnessed Roman's growth, almost as half of his son.

And he really likes Roman's character, he doesn't have the frame of a nobleman at all, he speaks softly and plainly, and is very popular with the corpse hunting team.

Now it is unbearable for him to venture into the Manna eco-zone for a slim hope.

However, Roman shook his head and said firmly: "I know it's dangerous, but even so, I still want to go, I want to become a wizard!" ”

He knew what the captain meant, he had become a knight, and he continued to stay in the corpse hunting team to improve his qualifications, and within a few years he would become a minor nobleman and obtain fiefs and manors.

But how can this compare to wizards?

Even the lowest-level wizard apprentice can easily kill the knight, and if you are prepared, even the peak knight will not escape.

Of course, it will definitely rely on runes or demonic items, but the Grand Knight is the highest level of knight, and being able to be killed by the lowest level wizard shows the difference in itself.

This feeling of greatness being in oneself fascinated Roman.

So, after getting to know the wizard, Roman decided to become a wizard, not a knightly aristocrat of Rausch, or an earthly power.

As for danger, where in this world is it not dangerous? In the past three years, the Mana ecology has spread three times, and human beings can only defend it by relying on the virus ecology, among which there are countless noble knights who have died.

Those superior noble knights died like ants in the face of natural disasters, so even if he didn't become a wizard, he wouldn't live for a few more years, only a wizard could give him a sense of security.

Seeing that the young man was resolute, the captain knew that persuasion was useless, so he sighed and said:

"Since you insist, I won't persuade you anymore, but in the end, I'll give you a piece of advice, don't go too deep, just mean it on the edge."

Roman glanced back at the old captain and said gratefully: "Okay, I will, if I can't come back, you must take care of the old man." ”
