The confinement chamber of the Korabo Legion Fortress, located on the third basement floor of the Legion Castle.

Drinking and making trouble, using controlled drugs without authorization, reading controlled books illegally, and leaving their duties without permission. Anyone who violates the rules of the fortress will be imprisoned here.

Narrow pigeon cages, hard floors and smelly pits are standard in the rooms here.

There are no beds and no windows.

The floor is the bed, and the long flat window on the door is the window.

The hallway light shining through the long flat window was the only light.

From being escorted into the confinement room to Lieutenant Gretel locking the metal door, Leno did not speak the whole time, just quietly endured the terrible air and crowded room.

In fact, since his energy value has skyrocketed to more than 3,000 points, Li Nuo knows that his turning point has come.

Looking back now, my mentality began to change at the moment when the energy value exploded, so I had the confidence to "pick a pick, and the master will not serve".

Lieutenant Gretel glanced at the silent Li Nuo through the door, knocked on the door a few times, and said:

"Jarvis, Captain let me tell you, she'll do her best to get you out. I don't know why she thinks so highly of you, but you'd better be honest with me. The only order the captain gave me was to put you in confinement, and not to serve you food or drink. ”

That being said, Lieutenant Gretel still had a delicious dinner delivered.

Carefully cooked tomato beef soup, crisp and delicious shredded vegetables, and served with sweet slices of creamy bread.

Such a sumptuous dinner is enough to be described as eye-catching.

The soldiers who were locked in the confinement room, smelling the enticing aroma, patted the door panel and asked the guards why the newly arrived soldier could be treated like this.

The guards shouted several times before the scene was brought under control.

Leno turned a deaf ear to the petty riot.

He sat cross-legged on the floor, slowly eating the delicious food on the tray.

After tonight, it's going to be a bit hard to eat another meal like this. At least until he leaves the Junction of Misery, a soft, smooth brisket stewed is definitely a luxury.

Li Nuo took a sip of the hot soup and called up his personal panel.

After being delayed by a series of events for so long, he finally had a chance to upgrade his skills.

In the next 8 to 10 hours, there will definitely be a catastrophe in the fortress of the Kolabo Legion.

Li Nuo is a firm believer in this.

This time period corresponds to 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock in the evening.

The night was dark and the wind was high, and the fortress was in chaos, and it was a good time to completely break away from the control of the Legion.

"Fear Technique", priority should be given to upgrading.

This is a very good control skill.

If used well, it can not only control the legionnaires, but also allow the soldiers to attract the undead, which can be called killing two birds with one stone.

Li Nuo manipulated it in his mind with his mind, and sprinkled a handful of energy points.

[System message: The level of "Dread" has been increased from level 1 to level 5.] 】

[The effect of the "Dread Spell" spell has been enhanced!] 】

[[Fear Spell] Duration +10s.] It's now 15 seconds. 】

[[Dread] affects the number of targets +2.] You can now cast Dread on 3 targets at the same time. 】

"Well, that's good. It's a small crowd control skill. I just don't know if there will be light and shadow effects when the "Fear Technique" is cast... I hope not. ”

Li Nuo nodded with satisfaction, and put another amount of energy into the effort.

This time, he upgraded the "Magic Shield", which was also upgraded to level 5.

As for after reaching level 5, why not continue to improve

That's purely because of the reduced cost performance.

Upgrading from level 1 to level 2 requires 10 energy.

Upgrading from level 2 to level 3 requires 20 energy points, which has been increased by 10 points.

And so on, the upgrade cost is equal to level *10.

Level 4 is upgraded by 5 levels to 40 points.

Level 5 to level 6 requires 50 points.

The price-performance ratio has dropped sharply.

Li Nuo is not rich enough to ignore the upgrade consumption, so he can only be careful and stop when he upgrades his skills to level 5.

He worked through the manipulation in his mind, and finally upgraded the "Fear Technique", "Death Technique", "Magic Shield", and the "Finger of Death" used as a hole card to level 5.

As for the "Soul Bribe" and the ritual circle that summons a large number of undead troops, Li Nuo has not upgraded them.

"Soul Bribe" is only level 1, but it is enough.

Because it's a rather awkward skill.

The powerful undead were enough to kill Li Nuo in an instant, and he didn't even have the opportunity to use the "Soul Bribe".

The weak undead couldn't beat Li Nuo, and there was no need for bribery, so Li Nuo didn't plan to upgrade it.

The ritual circle that summons the undead, this kind of strategic skill is not used in a short period of time, and there is no need to upgrade.

Only skills such as "Death Technique" and "Magic Shield" really affect an individual's combat power.

After the [Death Technique" is upgraded, the number of controls has been increased.

Leno can now control 5 Dead at the same time.

"Magic Shield" increases the thickness of the shield.

At level 5, 1 Soul Power can be converted into 15 Shield Strength.

The hole card skill "Finger of Death" has also been improved.

Its skill cost has been reduced from 100 Soul Power and Energy to 90, a total decrease of 10.

Decreases consumption by 2 for each level.

To be honest, the effect of this upgrade was a bit unexpected by Li Nuo.

If it weren't for the serious reduction in the energy value in his hand, he would have wanted to directly upgrade the "Death Finger" to level 50 to see if he could cast this skill without consumption.

Li Nuo also has a hole card skill in his hand that is used to turn over the Blade Mountains. Unfortunately, this skill cannot be upgraded, and it is the highest level as soon as you get it.

Li Nuo glanced at his personal panel.

There are still more than two thousand four hundred energy points left.

To control five dead, it takes 5 energy.

To release a "Finger of Death", it costs 90 points.

To release a "Magic Shield", it costs 1 point.

Fear of a target, it costs 1 point.

"Soul Bribe" also requires 1 energy point each time it is cast.

To be on the safe side, Li Nuo decided to leave more than 400 energy points as a backup.

Wait until you've found a safe place to stay, and then consider lowering your energy below the upper limit.

Anyway, in the short term, he doesn't want to automatically recover his energy.

"The longer I drag on at this crossroads of suffering, the more energy I automatically regain and the greater my loss. I've got to get out of this place as soon as possible. ”

Li Nuo hammered his chest lightly, secretly crying out for heartache.

Only in the "Death Spell UP Pool", dozens of rounds can be soothed from the regret in his heart.

Just draw the card pool while seeing if the new skill value is worth upgrading.

He called up the "Ten Commandments of Martyrdom: General Outline", without saying a word, and invested 1,000 energy points.

[System message: You consume 1000 energy points, harmlessly deconstruct the "Ten Commandments of Martyrdom: General Outline". 】

[You also need to invest 8600 energy points to achieve 100% completion of harmless deconstruction.] 】

[In this harmless deconstruction, you have obtained the following results:]

[1. "Basic Encyclopedia of the Undead Class", 100% completeness.] 】

[3. "Two ways to build the Arsenal of the Dead: bus type and corpse type", 100% completeness. 】

[4. "Elite Undead Class Production Guide and Illustrations", completeness 16%. 】

【. 】

Li Nuo's eyes refreshed a large waterfall-like system text.

This thousand points of energy is definitely worth the price, and the death knowledge books alone are enough to make people dazzled.

After about 10 knowledge books flashed in front of his eyes, Li Nuo finally saw the traces of the blueprint of death-type spells!

[System News: You have obtained three spell blueprints.] 】

[They are:]

[1. "Spell Blueprint: Limb Grafting", 100% completeness.] 】

[2. "Spell Blueprint: Crippled Technique", 100% completeness.] 】

[3. "Spell Blueprint: Tracking the Living", 100% completeness.] 】

"Limb grafting? Is it to take someone else's body to oneself? Then I'm not a Greek? ”

Li Nuo muttered in his heart, clicked on the spell panel of "Limb Grafting" and looked at it.

"Well, it's me thinking too much. It turned out to be a stitching-type death magic that allowed the undead to patch themselves up with local materials. Dare is a healing spell for undead creatures. If the limb is strong enough, it can barely be used as a spell to strengthen the undead class. ”

Li Nuo shook his head and sighed, and clicked on the spell panels of "Crippled Technique" and "Tracking the Living".

"These two spells are good. Cripple" forcibly reduces the target's movement speed. "Tracking the Living" is a spell that opens up the magical vision, which can track living people within a horizontal distance of 20 meters and a vertical distance of 10 meters, the higher the level, the greater the field of vision. ”

Li Nuo consumed 3 energy points and learned all three spells.

He activates "Tracking the Living", and the image in front of him instantly fades into a monotonous scene of black, white and gray.

The soldiers in the next room and the opposite room were presented in his field of vision with dark red silhouettes.

"This skill is a bit interesting, I can actually see through the wall, then I won't really be a hanging brother. Forget it, Xiao Tou is not hanging, how can he call himself a hanger..."

Li Nuo came to the pit, pointed his eyes at the water, shook his head slightly, and felt a little regretful:

"It's just a little bit bad. When I cast this spell, my eyes will turn solid black, with no whites. It seems that in the future, I will have to wear sunglasses or cover my eyes with a hood. ”

Li Nuo lifted the "tracking of the living", but did not experiment with the "mutilation technique".

Because he's alone here, he can't let himself be crippled...

Li Nuo glanced at the personal panel, and there were still more than 1,400 energy points left.

With the three skills that have just arrived, it is difficult to say that there is a need to upgrade immediately. Anyway, if you plan to leave 400 energy points for backup, it's not too late to upgrade on the spot.

Li Nuo once again called up the "Death Spell UP Pool" and did not hesitate to invest 1,000 points.

As a result, there are only more than 400 energy points left on the books as a backup.

[System message: You consume 1000 energy points, harmlessly deconstruct the "Ten Commandments of Martyrdom: General Outline". 】

[You still need to invest 7600 energy points to achieve 100% completion of deconstruction.] 】

[4. "How the Necromantic Monk Protects Himself", 50% completeness.] 】

【. 】

"Shh How are they all books about necromantic monks..."

Half a minute passed, and the system finished broadcasting the results of this harmless deconstruction.

Li Nuo glanced up and down at the waterfall of words in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly.

This time, he didn't deconstruct the spell blueprint, and even the broken blueprint never appeared.

It is full of books about the life, work, and rest of the necromantic monks.

Judging from the introduction of the book, the author is not a member of the Necromantic Sect, but more like these books written after in-depth observation of the Necromantic Sect, which is estimated to be the masterpiece of the Death Society.

Li Nuo didn't know what the real situation was, but looking at these books, he only felt his brows jump sharply and his chest tightened.

"This wave of losses is a thousand points of energy, in exchange for a bunch of textbooks."

Li Nuo lowered his head and sighed, clicked on a book and read it.

It's good to use energy in exchange, no matter what, you have to scan it all, otherwise the energy value will be wasted.

In order from top to bottom, Li Nuo took "The Spiritual Guide of the Necromantic Monk" as his first reading.

As he read more, his expression changed from remorse to deep and then from deep to serious.

As soon as he finished reading the book, he immediately memorized it all by spending 1 energy, and then called up the spell panel of the "Mark of Resentment".

At this moment, the "Purpose" column of the "Grudge Mark" has undergone a huge change.

The entry for "meditation" finally has a specific textual message, and it is no longer the words "You have not yet acquired the meditation knowledge about this imprint".

【Purpose of "Mark of Resentment"】

【Meditation】

Activate the sigil and enter a meditative state.

There is a memory of "resentment" that will be forcibly awakened, and you will be immersed in this memory.

If you can be freed from it, you will gain the "spiritual" attribute.

The meditation process continuously consumes soul strength.

Soul strength consumption, which is related to the difficulty of meditation.

The "resentment" in the memory fragment is strong, and the more difficult the meditation, the more soul strength is required.

You can only get the "Spirit" stat once from each "Resentment" memory.

【Description】

Since you have obtained this meditation method using the method of "harmless deconstruction", the system has stripped you of the meditation steps that will pollute the soul.

These steps include: drawing the pattern of the meditation ritual, preparing the meditation materials, reciting the meditation prayer, and praying for the permission to meditate on the designated target.

Now, all you need to do is select the "Mark of Resentment" on the panel and meditate silently to start meditating.

…

"I finally got a way to improve my 'spiritual' attributes!"

In the dimly lit confinement room, Li Nuo clenched his fists and waved them, a thick smile rising at the corners of his mouth.

He had waited for this moment for too long, too long.

Unexpectedly, the method of improving the "spirit" is actually hidden in the book "Research Report on the Practice of Necromantic Monks".

Looking at the Necromantic Monk series of books in his mind again, Li Nuo no longer buried them.

These series of books on necromantic monks are definitely the teaching materials within the Death Society.

According to the ideas of these magic textbooks, anyone can become an extraordinary person in the Death Society.

Li Nuo summed it up, and the meaning of the book is probably like this:

"The undead hate the world of the living, but at the same time they are obsessed with their own memories.

"They will reminisce in pain.

"Some of the undead will sink in their memories and yearn to return to the camp of the living. Such undead will gradually decline due to confusion, and eventually end up withering souls.

"Only the undead who have conquered the past and conquered memories can be sublimated from the pain of memories and make their minds stronger.

"The people of the Death Society have studied meditation methods suitable for the living by referring to the methods of the undead to enhance their "spirits".

"This meditation method is named "Martyrdom Meditation" for the people who are accused of the death meeting."

That's pretty much what it means.

In Li Nuo's view, this method of improving the "spirit" is similar to the masochistic version of spiritual penance.

As long as you are hurt by a memory and carry it down, you can become strong.

This is the core thrust of the Meditation on Martyrdom.

Judging from the contents of meditation methods, magic wands, magic books, etc., the Death Society, an organization that is firmly locked out of the eyes of ordinary people by the Empire, should be a wizarding group.

Otherwise, how can we explain that things like wands and meditation methods will flow out of the Death Society?

Li Nuo patted his head, quite a feeling of being in this mountain.

Since he crossed over, the schedule has been so full that he didn't realize until now that he realized that death would have to do with wizards.

Li Nuo made up his mind, stood up, came to the door, and looked through the window on the door panel to glance into the hallway.

It should be 6 p.m. now, less than 4 hours before 10 p.m.

There's plenty of time.

In that case, let's try meditation.

Li Nuo returned to his place, sat cross-legged, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes.

He meditated in his heart:

"Activate the Mark of Resentment and start meditating."

[System message: "Leno Jarvis' memory has been activated.] The system has screened out the memory fragments related to "resentment" for you. 】

Please select one of these clips. 】

The system text flashed in my mind, and then many small windows appeared, each of which contained a screenshot of a memory fragment.

These windows are fragments of Li Nuo's optional memories, all related to "resentment".

The system also intimately marked the difficulty of meditation and the amount of soul strength required to meditate on this segment at the bottom of the window.

The meditation difficulty of these memory fragments is not high, ranging from level 1 to level 5.

Li Nuo randomly chose a memory fragment of level 1 difficulty and began to meditate for the first time.

He kept his eyes closed, and the darkness in front of him slowly lit up.

There was a muffled conversation in his ears.
