The gnoll leader bursts out a pair of claws and two bottles of fiery gel.

"Gnoll Claws": The strongest physical weapon in the whole body of the gnoll leader. +3 sharp, +2 sturdy.

The quest had been completed, but Lin Xi did not choose to leave. After a short search, the two arrived at the gnolls' lair.

The chaotic and evil gnolls are not good at building dwellings and making anything of lasting value, and a large and irregular stone cave is where they live on a daily basis.

As he slowly deepened, the surroundings gradually became wider, and a strange and bloody altar appeared in front of Lin Xi's eyes.

“…… You have found the Demon Altar of the Gnoll, +500 XP. ”

"Sure enough." Lin Xi stared at the altar, on which were placed all kinds of sacrifices, most of them were broken human tissues, as well as a small number of the gnoll's own body parts.

The origin of the gnolls can be traced back to when the demon lord Yenogu managed to make his way to the material plane and roam through it, a group of ordinary maned dogs followed him to clear the remains of the demon lord's killing. The maned dogs were then transformed into the first gnolls and followed Yenogu around until he was banished back into the abyss. Since then, the gnolls have been scattered around the world, becoming a terrifying legacy of demonic powers.

Today, the gnolls still perform demonic rituals to celebrate their victories and sacrifice blood for Yenogu. The Demon Lord will also sometimes cast his gaze and reward these worshippers for allowing one of them to be possessed by the demon's spirit. The Gnoll who has been labeled Yenogu's favorite will be lucky enough to be the Elector of the Gnoll Lords.

When the enemies killed by Yenogu's fangs are fed to the normal maned dogs, the person being fed will become an adult after a terrible transformation, just like the first gnolls created by Yenogu. Depending on the number of maned dogs in the group, Yenogu's fangs may increase dramatically in the number of his fellow gnolls.

The maned dogs that had appeared with the leader of the gnolls meant that it had the ambition to become Yenogu's fangs and had already acted for it.

As Lin Xi approached the altar, she felt an evil force preventing her from approaching, but she ignored it completely, walked closer, and stared at the evil and filthy runes on the altar.

Soon, the scene in front of him was distorted, many phantoms appeared around him, and layers of terrible whispers lingered in his ears, making people dizzy and bloodthirsty impulses in their hearts.

Lin Xi was unmoved, his eyes were always calm, as if he couldn't see the terrifying scenes around him, and only the altar in his eyes.

Thirty seconds later, the illusion vanished.

A twisted rune slowly emerged from the altar and flew into Lin Xi's eyebrows.

“…… You have obtained the Mystic Rune from the Gnoll's Demon Altar, +2 Scouting, +2 Mystic Knowledge, and +500 XP. ”

Lin Xi's spell slots had been depleted today, and he couldn't use the Purgatory Drink. So he took five or six steps back and threw two bottles of fiery glue at the altar.

Blazing glue is a viscous fluid that burns violently once it comes into contact with air. In the next second, the flames instantly covered the entire altar, and a terrible wail was heard from it.

A huge wolf head burst out of the flames with black gas, and pounced on Lin Xi with strong resentment.

Lin Xi stood indifferently in place, his dark eyes reflected the wolf's head with a cracked giant kiss, and when the sharp teeth were about to fall on Lin Xi's smooth neck, they suddenly stood still in the air as if they were immobilized, and then seemed to suffer some invisible force, uncontrollably twisted into a vortex and sucked into Lin Xi's body.

"It tastes terrible." Lin Xi lowered his eyes.

“…… The Mental Omega Beacon activates. ”

“…… Passed the volitional test. ”

“…… You have completely destroyed the Demon Altar of the Gnolls, gaining +300 XP and +3 Gnoll Racial Aggro. ”

“…… You have successfully captured the power of the Evil Illusory, gaining +1 Constitution. ”

Anna witnessed the whole process and stood aside with a pale face: "What was that just now?" ”

"It's just a hallucination." Lin Xi glanced at Anna, "This copy has no more value, let's go." ”

Anna opened her mouth, but finally said nothing.

The two of them returned to the beginning of the dungeon, and as soon as they stepped into the range of the aperture, the white aura on the ground turned yellow, and the vortex at the entrance was restored again, but it was spinning counterclockwise.

As the two of them left the dungeon, the swirl shrank and shrank, becoming a pinhole-sized point and vanishing.

……

Back in the outside world, the oppressive feeling is gone, the air is fresh, and the original smell of blood is swept away.

Lin Xi put the gnoll's claws in his hand and threw the dagger to Anna, "Compared to a spear, a dagger is more suitable for wanderers. ”

"You can go now, I'll probably come back to you tomorrow night, and then I'll need at least one priest, two barbarians or warriors, and a paladin."

"I see." Anna didn't ask much, she held the dagger in the way of Lin Xi, took a deep look at Lin Xi, and then turned around and walked in the direction she came, "I won't be too far away from the administrative building." ”

Seeing Anna's back disappear from view, Lin Xi planned the next course of action.

"Now that reincarnation has broken through the charisma, let's focus on perception."

"Whether it's leveling up, or improving attribute points, or competing for the first place in the moderator, in the final analysis, you need the support of experience points."

"And the only place where you can get a lot of experience at the moment...... There are only combat towers. ”

Although Lin Xi hadn't been to the Battle Tower and Skill Tower in his previous life for various reasons, he had already learned a lot about their situation from the forum posts.

The Battle Tower and the Skill Tower are public dungeons shared by players all over the world. Their appearance may not be a tower, but rather an imagination based on the layout and setting inside.

No one knows exactly where they are located, and most people speculate that they are in a special space, because no matter which country or city you enter, the scene you see is the same.

Unfortunately, the maps don't overlap and players can't see each other.

In each city, the entrances to the Battle Towers and Skill Towers have a consistent characteristic, which is that they are usually famous high-rise buildings.

For example, in Lizhou City, the skill tower is located in the China Resources Building, which is basically the opposite of Lin Xi's current location, of course, Lin Xi's goal is not the skill tower, but the battle tower located in the center of the future of Oaks.

The Oaks Future Center is not far from Evergreen Park, but it is not close either, and Lin Xi plans to rush over as soon as possible.
