Chapter 170: Oolong

The faint moonlight, the sparse stars, the cemetery lay silently beneath them.

Eric walked through the cemetery and found that every time he visited, the dead silence and coldness of the cemetery made him feel more and more comfortable.

Eric, whose mental power began to become abnormally active, simply stopped a little impulsively, put his backpack on the side, sat on the ground and began to meditate.

"How did meditation in the cemetery suddenly become so powerful?" Eric wondered.

Although he had previously found that meditation in the cemetery was better than at home, what happened to Eric today was very strange to him, and he now felt that the cold energy that was gathering towards him was very large.

Under this huge cold energy, Eric's spiritual power began to frantically absorb it, and at the same time, Eric's soul was slowly changing, and the spell models built on the soul seemed to become smaller.

No, it was the soul that had become stronger, and this change made Eric suddenly think, "Am I going to be promoted?"

Thinking that this might be the case, Eric immediately calmed down and meditated intently.

As a result, Eric's spiritual power began to extend outward from his body like countless tentacles, and countless cold energy entered Eric's body along the spiritual power tentacles.

As usual during meditation, as Eric's mental power grew, various fantasies constantly appeared in Eric's mind.

What scared Eric, the nostalgic, the jealous, and the various scenes he liked wanted to erode his mind, and at the same time, the pleasure of increasing his mental power was infinitely magnified.

Soon, Eric felt as if he was standing at the top of the world, and everything in the world was under his gaze.

It was a very real feeling, as if the whole world would wither with a wave of Eric's hand, and any life would tremble and cry beneath him.

The rich yin and cold energy has undergone a qualitative change due to the accumulation of too much.

If someone encounters Eric in the cemetery at this time, they will see that Eric is covered by a dark blue veil.

The veil was disembodied, like the Milky Way on the horizon, with glowing stars surrounding Eric.

A crow perched on a tree, "fluttering", flew away from a large tree not far from Eric's side.

A cockroach passing by Eric also tried to leave, but it didn't crawl a few steps before it stopped.

The breeze blew, and the cockroach was swept away like a speck of dust.

The cockroaches that had gone away quickly turned into ashes in the air.

In meditation, Eric did not notice the changes around him, and his mental power began to reach a state of saturation of growth, but he still felt that he could continue to meditate, but he needed a boost or accumulation.

Only under some kind of opportunity will Eric's spiritual power "break out of the cocoon" and then be reborn.

Obviously, Eric didn't have a chance to "break out of the cocoon" at this time, but despite this, Eric still felt refreshed all over, and some of his magic was much smoother than before.

I don't know how long it has been, but after Eric stood up after opening his eyes, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to cast magic, only to see a black and gray wave swinging out of his palm.

Under the influence of the cold energy around Eric, which still did not dissipate, the black-gray wave slammed into the ground.

Then, a few sounds rang out, "Poof, poof, poof...", and several bony arms and carrion arms burst out from under the ground beside Eric.

"Oh no, I accidentally cast the 'Resurrection Zombie', but how is this magic so powerful? One, two, three... Actually resurrected five corpses at once!"

Eric hurriedly cast a "strike on the necromantic creatures" on these necromantic creatures that were about to crawl out of the soil.

Eric breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the arms fall limply.

Then, after Eric had taken care of the scene, he picked up his backpack and hurried out of the cemetery.

"It seems that he will be promoted to a second-order wizard soon, these materials are really timely, and the time can be shortened a lot!" Eric, who was rushing towards his home, felt that his spiritual power would burst through the "cocoon" at any time.

However, after meditating just now, Eric also found that his mental power had become a little unstable, which was also a situation that would only occur before promotion.

If you can't stabilize your strength and be promoted in one fell swoop, the promotion time will be much longer.

However, Eric smiled confidently after glancing at the backpack full of potion materials.

When Eric returned home, he found Humphrey standing in front of his house.

Humphrey was also kneeling at his feet, their hands folded behind their backs, pierced by a dagger.

Not only that, but the two people, who looked like they were all wounded, were tied into a rice dumpling by thumb-thick vines.

Eric didn't speak first, but looked at Humphrey with a puzzled expression, he wanted to see how Humphrey explained it all.

"Eric, you're finally back!As soon as I came out of the stronghold, I waited here for you!" Humphrey smiled and said, "I didn't expect two vampires to come before you came back!"

Now, Eric knew who was kneeling at Humphrey's feet, the two vampires who had come after Viconia, and the drama had captured them before they could see their target.

"Wow, thank you so much, it looks like if it weren't for you, I'd be in danger tonight!" Eric said with a smile.

Seeing Eric like this, Humphrey smiled bitterly: "Don't make such jokes, even without me, these two vampires can't pose a threat to you."

Let's be honest with each other, I know you're not happy that I assassinated you.

But I really have no ill intentions, the previous assassination of you was really just a misunderstanding, and the reason why I came to you was to show the sincerity of my apology to you. ”

"You don't look like the kind of person who would apologize!" Eric said suddenly.

Although Humphrey smiled apologetically and wryly, the look in his eyes was very indifferent.

"I'm already sorry for President Asimov for leaving the Brotherhood of Thieves to join the Brotherhood of Assassins, so although my assassination of you is a misunderstanding, I will still give you an explanation!

This is a reward for President Asimov's long care for me!" Humphrey said.

"What are you going to do, and why are you leaving, if you care so much about President Asimov?" asked Eric.

"Hehe, you don't need to know the reason why I left. As an apology, I'll tell you who is behind it!"

Humphrey looked at Eric with interest, and he wanted to see if Eric was interested in the answer.

"Who is the one who wants to kill me?, and you are not afraid of damaging the credibility of the Assassin Brotherhood by doing so?" Somewhat unexpectedly, Eric did not hesitate to indicate that he wanted to know who the mastermind was.

"Reputation, it seems that you still haven't learned anything about the Assassin Brotherhood, and for us, reputation has a price.

The person who wanted to kill you was Francisco, and when I saw the price he offered, I thought it was too high.

Now I know that the price is actually ridiculously low! Let's go, you can look at these two vampires!"

Humphrey didn't want to stay long, and left with a finished speech.

"Francisco... When did I offend... Uh....It seems that I have offended him a long time ago!I am still cheeky, and I know that I have bought the killer to deal with me, and I didn't say anything about my dad being the lord of the city or anything like that. Eric smiled.

Eric walked up to the two vampires, holding the hair of one in one hand, and grinned at them, "As for you, just use it as material!"

"Let's use it for something else!" Eric felt it was a bit of a pity to turn the two vampires into materials after discovering that they had completely lost their ability to resist.

So Eric took the two vampires to the basement, and then used the iron hook to pierce the two vampires' lute bones, and finally hung them.

"Hahaha, there's finally something alive to cast on!" Eric laughed happily, glad he had discovered the true usefulness of the two vampires.

As for the two vampires who were hanged, they still had a nonchalant expression on their faces before, but after seeing Eric looking at them with the eyes of a guinea pig, his heart began to grow.

After circling around the two vampires, Eric suddenly recited a spell and made a gesture to cast a "lightning spell" on one of the vampires.

"Crack!" the vampire who had been enforced by the "lightning spell" convulsed, and he was hanging on the meat hook like a fresh fish caught in a fishhook, jumping desperately.

The companion next to him yelled at Eric with an angry face.

"I've been wondering if vampires are also afraid of electric shocks, and now I've finally had a chance to find out!" Eric ignored the glaring vampire, and left the basement with a clapping of his hands.

Both vampires had a strip of cloth tied to their mouths, and Eric had no intention of untying it.

Eric, who had left the basement, came to the treehouse, and he wanted to know how Viconia was doing.

In the treehouse, Viconia is asleep in bed, while Sophia is sitting in a chair with a book in her hand, watching with relish in the glow of fluorescent stones.

As Eric walked into the treehouse, Sophia looked up at him and said, "You can move into the manor tomorrow, and Aunt Caroline's family will move in as well, what about you?"

"I'll wait a while!" said Eric, thinking about using the two vampires before moving into the manor.

"Who's the man guarding your door? you've hired to deal with the vampires?" asked Sophia.

"Uh... I'm going to sleep, and you'll remember to take Viconia with you tomorrow, I don't have any time to take care of her!"
