A series of reconnaissance and combat work in the past lasted about eight hours.

There is a slight fatigue on the mental and physical level, and the energy value is consumed a lot, but fortunately, the various gains are very good.

When Li Nuo raised "Perception Tampering" and "Mind Bombardment" from level 40 to level 100, he consumed two transactions of up to 41,700 energy points.

When he increased his Perception Enhancement from level 1 to level 100, he spent another 49,500 energy points.

Counting the consumption of targets such as Deconstructing Pullin, Demon Brain Parasite, and two retainer wizards, Li Nuo spent a total of 367,000 energy points today.

A considerable part of the consumption was replaced by Li Nuo with energy reserves. It squeezed the gadgets out of his magic pocket.

The good news is that when killing enemies and absorbing the "Source of Rebirth Mana", Leno successfully triggers passive deconstruction.

He made up all the energy he had expended, and he didn't fall into a situation where he had no energy to use.

[Soul Strength] 10235 points

[Energy] 710,000/70 (40+30)

[Energy Reserve] 10,000

The explosive increase in energy value and soul strength made Li Nuo satisfied.

He was one step closer to his goal of killing the Wizard of the Ten Rings in seconds.

Li Nuo reached into his magic pocket and quickly sorted out the loot he had found from the four criminals.

The Wizard Force's Immortal Metal's meditation method and the Spell Books, both of which come from the metal wizard Pullin, who spoils his own associated witches.

Li Nuo used deconstruction to crack the magic lock on the classics, and obtained the harmless deconstructed metal-based meditation method "Metal Immortality", and a spell blueprint that matched the meditation method - "Metal Revitalization".

The "Metal Immortality" meditation can improve "tenacity", "will" and "spirit". Its effect is to allow the meditator to transform flesh and blood into a cheap magical metal called magic iron.

The transformed magic iron can be used to create metal magical creations in the same way as normal magic metals.

You can also use the "Metal Revitalization" spell to give it an activation and be absorbed by wizards who practice the "Metal Immortality" meditation method.

The absorbed magic metal will form a magic metal block on the body part designated by the wizard.

The more absorbed, the more hard lumps.

In the long run, most of the body can be transformed into magical metal.

The meditation method and the "Metal Rejuvenation" spell that Li Nuo got in his hands were only 10% complete.

The consumption of meditation and spell casting is very high, 10 times that of normal conditions, and the actual effect is also quite discounted.

Li Nuo thought about it, and had no idea of cultivating these two things.

At least not for the time being.

When he needs to face a situation that his flesh and blood can't bear in the future, he should consider the "Metal Immortality" meditation method and the "Metal Revitalization" spell.

Continue to sort out the loot.

The Brain Parasite has no magic books on them, and nothing of value.

Two of Fagan's retainers were so wealthy.

Gold coins, jewelry, magic gadgets, letters, magic books, magic elixirs, etc., Li Nuo was dazzled.

"Sure enough, horses have no night grass and no fat, and people have no windfall and no wealth. After getting rid of these two retainers, my wallet bulged again~~"

Li Nuomei swept the valuable things of the two retainers into his magic pocket.

Along with their belongings, Li Nuo got 350,000 gold coins from the four criminals today, as well as various magic props worth 500,000 gold coins.

Leave the money to Dinas.

Leno put the gold coins in a separate coin bag.

Among all kinds of magic props, the part that has a higher value and can be exchanged for money was also thrown into the coin bag by Li Nuo.

Those small props that are not of high value and difficult to realize were put into the magic pocket by Li Nuo and became part of the "energy reserve".

As a result, the "Energy Reserve" has risen to 160,000.

Li Nuo set aside the bulging coin bag and took out the magic books of the two retainers.

The first retainer to be erased by Li Nuo only has the strength of the six rings.

The magic texts he mastered were highly overlapping with the Festas of the Seven Rings, and they were not as complete as the latter.

Leno put away his magic tomes and deconstructed the two tomes in Festa's possession separately.

[System News:]

[You consumed 150,000 energy points, cracked the magic lock of two magic books, and launched a harmless deconstruction of the content of the books. 】

【You have obtained the following solution results:】

[1. Panel information for the two magic books.] 】

[2. The Pangula family's meditation method "Shaking the Earth", with a completeness of 15%, covers all the cultivation content from the wizard's apprentice to the Seven Rings stage. 】

[3. The Pangula family's rock and soil spell blueprints, a total of six, ranging from 10% to 20% completeness, they are:]

[Spell Blueprint: Boulder Shield, 20% completeness]

[Spell Blueprint: High-level Rock Cage, 10% completeness]

[Spell Blueprint: Rock Spirit Summoning, 20% completeness]

["Spell Blueprint: Falling Mountain", completeness 10%]

[Spell Blueprint: Earthquake, 10% completeness]

[Spell Blueprint: Detect Geotechnical Energy, 20% completeness]

Li Nuo put the six spell blueprints in front of him and spread them out, and looked at them carefully.

After about 5 minutes, he smiled and learned the six spell blueprints and filled them into his spell list.

These six spells are all geo-technical spells, and they are all high-level spells.

Due to their low integrity, their spell consumption is relatively large, their effectiveness is reduced, and half of their spells require the help of the earth to achieve.

Li Nuo doesn't plan to study them in the near future, and will talk about it later when he needs it in the future.

In addition to the magic books, Li Nuo's biggest gain is the knowledge and memories that have been passively deconstructed.

After killing the four criminals, the system sent a lot of messages.

[Sculpting Magic] level +5, now level 13. Other knowledge and skills have been improved.

The new knowledge skill "Geomagic" is now level 7.

In the future, when Li Nuo deconstructs things related to geotechnical magic, he will be able to enjoy a discount on deconstruction consumption.

"Demonic Linguistics", Level 2.

This is a special language used by the Demon Brains, and each character looks twisted like a slug.

"Metal Magic", currently level 3. This is the product of killing Prine.

"Pangula Rune Literature", Level 15.

Before the battle, Leno used deconstruction to learn this skill at level 7 from Festa.

After killing the opponent, passive deconstruction helps Li Nuo improve his skill to level 15.

In the same way that the Necromancy Rune strengthens the Death Shield, this rune can be used to strengthen the Rock Shield.

At this point, the gold coins, magic books, and academic skills have been counted.

Li Nuo recalled the memories of the four criminals in his mind, reading the memories while waiting for Selena to clean up the battlefield.

The Demon Brain Parasite, the metal wizard Purin, and the Retainer of the Six Rings, the memory fragments of these three people, Li Nuo had already finished reading before.

Now his focus is on Festa, the seven-ring battle wizard.

As the personal butler of Master Fagan, Festa can be said to know Fagan's living habits and style of doing things well.

Drunk and drunk, indulging in pleasures, manipulating behind the scenes, and colluding with criminals, Festa did not directly participate in Fagan's work, but he saw and remembered what happened like a bystander.

From which socialite Fagan secretly invited to his home as a guest, to what color of pants Fagan planned to wear tomorrow, all this information is presented in Festa's memory.

This includes Fagan's plans for the next ten days, as well as Fagan's competition and cooperation with other heirs.

When Li Nuo read this part, he raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes flickered, and he benefited a lot.

He found a lot of useful information.

The Pangula family currently has 25 heirs from five different family branches.

The 1st to 3rd in line of succession are members of the Mutter branch.

The 4th to 12th in line of succession, from the Fagan branch where Dikla Fagan is located.

Dikra Fagan is the 5th in line to the throne, and the 4th in line ahead of him is his father, Fagan Pangula.

If Dikla Fagan dies, the head of the family will choose one of the heirs from the other heirs of the Fagan branch in the order of succession within the family branch, and assign them to come to the Suman Islands to take over the position of Dikla Fagan.

Only when Fagan's father, the 4th in line to the throne, relinquished his position as the ruler of Dikra Fagan in the Suman Islands, will the 6th to 12th in line have a chance to take over.

When the 6th to 12th in line of succession are all abandoned, it will be the turn of the 13th to 25th in line of succession.

In other words, after Li Nuo kills Dikla Fagan, there is a high probability that he will attract Dikla's father, that is, Fagan Pangula.

Judging from Festa's memories, Fagen Pangula has stepped into the Holy Throne stage and has become a Rock and Earth Wizard of the Eight Rings.

He wasn't a battle wizard, but he was surrounded by at least four eight-ring battle wizards.

If he succeeds Dikra Fagan as the manager of the Suman Islands, then Li Nuoke will be in trouble.

Holy Rank Wizards are much more difficult to deal with than the high-level wizards of the Sixth and Seventh Rings.

If Li Nuo wants to kill them, he must use the hole cards of "Thundercloud Technique" and Yuan Reactor.

Taking a long-term view, Li Nuo had to prepare ahead for what Fagen Pangula would do.

"It's really a small one, and an old one."

Li Nuo sighed silently.

He wasn't too worried about Fagan Pangula replacing Dikla Fagan.

Fagan Pangula is currently the head of the Pangula family's family in the Scorched Rock Plateau, and has a large area of scorched rock veins that produce fire magic and rock and earth magic to manage.

The "Jiaoyan Plateau" is full of open-air, high-grade ore veins, and it is a real treasure.

Unless Fagan Pangula has his brains pumped, he will never give up his position as the manager of the "Jiaoyan Plateau" and go to the Suman Islands to become the manager.

In Li's opinion, it should be Dikra Fagan's younger brother and sister, who came to the Suman Islands to inherit his managership.

"Is there such a possibility, I will make Sian the only head of the Pangula family in the Suman Islands through operation. This situation is most powerful for me. Once successful, I will not only expand my influence within the Pangula family, but I will also be able to share the pressure from the Fagan branch with Sian."

The more Li Nuo thought about it, the more he felt that the possibility of this plan was not impossible.

As a mature and steady traverser, it is necessary for him to prepare for his opponent, Young Master Fagan, in advance.

This includes how to reduce the aftermath caused by the death of the other party, and how to deal with the vacant position of the family manager left by the other party.

Only by taking one step and looking at three steps can we control the direction of things.

"Whoa~" There was a faint sound of water on the sea nearby.

Selena floated up from the nearby sea:

"Jarvis, all traces of the battle have been cleaned up."

Li Nuo came back to his senses and said to the other party:

"Good work, Selena. Wait a minute, I've got something to bring. ”

Lino beckoned Selena to follow him, flew to the place where the gray metal box was, and dug the box out of the soil.

"What is this?" Selena frowned slightly.

She detected faint signs of life in the box, as well as vague fluctuations in rebirth and metallic magic.

"Pullin's Companion Witch." Li Nuo took out the cloth package, put the box in it, and took it with him:

"Let's go back. Go straight to your study and discuss the next steps. By the way, let's go underwater. ”

"Well, I have a way to get straight into my study from the Magic Current. Come with me. ”

Selena withdrew her thoughtful gaze from the metal box and summoned a curtain of water to envelop herself and Linuo.

The curtain burrows into the seawater and swims rapidly below the surface.

On the eastern side of the Suman Islands, this remote and uninhabited corner has finally ushered in the silence it deserves.

The core of the Suman Islands, inside Selena's study.

This study with a hemispherical dome occupies a vast area.

A few meters from the floor, there are many spherical miniature oceans suspended.

"Bang la la la~"

A miniature ocean near the desk was filled with a large amount of spray.

As the sea churned, a curtain of water emerged from the miniature ocean and landed on the soft carpet.

The water curtain retracts the miniature ocean, leaving no water stains on the ground.

Two figures appeared in the study, none other than Li Nuo and the others who had returned from the eastern side of the Suman Islands.

"Selena, give me some time." Li Nuo tapped the cloth pocket wrapped around the metal box:

"I'd like to settle the poor reborn witch first. Do you mind if I summon Dinas over? ”

Selena shook her head slightly while manipulating the "Wizard's Hand" to prepare tea and desserts:

"Please, Jarvis."

After getting Selena's permission, Li Nuo activated the "soul induction" between himself and Dinas in his heart.

He first told the cute little witch that he was safe, and then told the other party what happened to Purin's companion witch.

Dinas listened to what Li Nuo had relayed, and immediately teleported in the flickering firelight.

After a brief greeting to Selena, she took the metal box from Li Nuo's hand with trembling hands slightly, and her eyes appeared with sorrow and tears:

"It's Latifah. It's definitely Latifah, damn Prinn, who turned her into a monster"

"You know her?"

Li Nuo faced Dinas whose eyes were red, and felt a little remorse in his heart.

He probably shouldn't have told him about Purin

Li Nuo put his arm around Dinas's shoulders and comforted her softly.

Dinas leaned on his shoulder like a wounded kitten, wetting Lino's neck and collar with tears, and sobbing uncontrollably.

Selena stood aside with concern on her face.

After a few minutes of appeasement, Dinas calmed down and recounted her encounter with a reborn witch named Latifah.

When Dinas was brought into the Unas Ring by the "Reborn Lamp" and became a wizard's apprentice, Latifa was already a Ring Reborn Witch as her senior sister.

The number of reborn witch trainees is small, generally no more than 10.

They are sisters to each other and live carefree under the protection of the "lamp".

It was then that Dinas formed a strong friendship with the other wizarding students.

After becoming a reborn witch of the Three Rings, Latifa began to travel around the world in search of her contractor at the request of the "lamp".

Until Latifa signed a contract with Prinn, Dinas often met with him in the sub-plane of the "lamp".

The last time Dinas saw Latifa was the day before Latifah signed a contract with Purin.

Latifa says that she has met a contractor she can rely on, who promises to show her the appearance of the alien sky after she has slept well.

Dinas blessed each other from the bottom of her heart.

Since then, Latifa has not been heard from.

Dinas asked Lamp about Latifah's movements.

The reply from "Lamp" was always just the words "She's still alive".

The next time Dinas saw Latifa was now.

The former senior sister has become a monster in a metal box, and such a huge psychological gap is equivalent to a heavy blow to Dinas's heart.

But crying doesn't solve the problem.

Now it's time to consider how to settle the latifa in the box.

After waiting for Dinas to barely calm down, Li Nuo asked the question.

Will you free Latifa with a closed mind, or will you resurrect it with a rebirth spell?

Dinas took the question and asked her professor.

The professor left her to decide.

Dinas faced with this reply, she was caught between a rock and a hard place.

Latifah, who was in a closed state of mind, fell into a deep sleep, losing her ability to perceive and think about the outside world.

As Pullin had promised her, if all went well, she would have the chance to wake up and see the alien sky, when Pullin was already a star witch.

But now, Pullin is dead, and Latifah is still asleep.

It can be cruel to resurrect Latifah, awaken her heart, and tell her what happened to her.

The reason why this is "probably" a cruel practice is because Leno and Dinas are unable to determine whether Latifah took the initiative to let Pullin transform herself into a monster.

There is a very small probability that after Latifa wakes up, not only will she not thank Leno and Dinas, but she will also hate the other two for killing their contractor, interrupting her slumber and not being able to see the alien sky.

This probability is not impossible.

According to Dinas, Latifa signed a contract with Prin during the love phase.

In the state of love brain, she may have accepted Purin's plan without even thinking about it.

After all, it's not a bad thing for her to be unable to perceive the outside world.

As long as she trusted her contractor to take care of herself, she could sleep peacefully.

At the moment when her heart awakens, her feelings for Pullin will not change, and she is still in a state of passionate love.

In this psychological situation, it is very difficult to get her to accept reality.

Li Nuo was powerless in the face of the question of "whether Latifa voluntarily turned herself into a monster".

It was too long ago for him to appear in the memory fragments, and he had no way of knowing the answer.

"It's a difficult decision whether to resurrect Latifa or not." Li Nuo said in a deep voice:

"If we want to reduce the trouble, we'd better let Latifah get relief. But I guess you can't bear to do it. Right? Dinas. ”

Dinas leaned on Lenovo's shoulder, wiped her tears, and her face was much haggard.

She nodded weakly in response to Linuo.

Selena, as a bystander, sat quietly on the sofa chair next to her, with a little more melancholy between her eyebrows. She seems to put herself in the shoes of the person concerned, thinking about the problem.

Li Nuo patted Dinas on the back and said:

"Let me decide. Do you believe me? ”

"Uh-huh. I've always believed in you. Dinas spoke softly.

Li Nuo looked at Selena:

"Sorry, I need to spend some more time. Please don't mind. ”

"It's okay, Jarvis." Selena brushed the long hair on her forehead, bent her right arm, supported her chin with the palm of her hand, and asked curiously:

"What are you going to do?"

Li Nuo took out a "Soul Retreat Crystal" and said:

"Not everyone can be strong in suffering. Sometimes, leaving in happiness and sweetness may be a good ending. ”

Dinas understood what Leno meant.

She shifted her head and buried her head in Linuo's back.

Warm tears quickly soaked the clothes on Li Nuo's back.

Li Nuo unleashed the "Soul Extraction Technique", targeting the metal box and the "Soul Retreat Crystal".

The pale gray soul body flowed out of the metal box and entered the crystal under Li Nuo's guidance.

The completeness of Li Nuo's "Soul Extraction Technique" is very low.

When extracting normal souls, he may need to maintain the spellcasting animation for 30 hours before he can extract the souls completely.

But when it came to extracting Latifah's soul, the process only lasted 3 minutes.

This shows that the container in which Latifah's soul is stored, that is, the metal box, has a very, very weak binding force on his soul.

So much so that it didn't take much time for Li Nuo to complete the process of soul extraction.

The female soul that appears in the "Soul Retreat Crystal" wears a gorgeous white wedding dress.

Although her eyes were closed, the corners of her mouth were filled with a beautiful smile.

"You see, Dinas, Latifa is smiling, she is in a state of happiness before her heart is closed." Li Nuo said.

Dinas pulled her head from behind Leno and swept her gaze over the soul in the crystal, tears streaming uncontrollably.

"Her memory froze in the happiest moment, let this moment be eternal."

Li Nuo squeezed hard, and the crystal shattered.

Translucent, weakened souls disappear with a sleeping smile.

"The Tale of Latifa and Purin" is left blank and not elaborated.
