"How is that possible!?"

In an instant, Lance was disillusioned.

He watched as the mana pool collapsed in an instant, and he couldn't even do anything to save it.

His spiritual power was already on the verge of exhaustion!

He watched all this with a dry mouth, and suddenly a bewitching female voice sounded in his ears:

"Isn't it painful to watch your mana pool crumble?"

Lance was shocked!

Because of this voice, he turned out to be very familiar!

As early as in the Battle for the Blood Sails, Lance saw some strange things because of the influence of the Demon Heart-

A savage man in a black and white mask and armed with a giant axe, a primitive man, a woman with a silver bracelet and a naked back, eventually split in half by a giant axe, and a bonfire that burns constantly. Weirdos dancing around a campfire.

But what impressed him the most was not these strange pictures, but the sad and mournful ballads he heard in his ears when these pictures appeared.

It was an old ballad, full of vicissitudes, as if telling a sad story.

And the chanter of that song was a woman.

Her voice......

It's this female voice now!

"Y-Who are you?"

For no reason, Lance felt a fluster. A thick chill rose in his heart.

The woman smiled lightly, with an unusual indifference in her tone: "Me?"

"I've been in your body all the time, and you don't know what to do?"

Lance shuddered.

He finally reacted—

Demon Heart!

Moment of truth. It turned out to be this thing jumping out to make trouble!

He bit his lip tightly, knowing that he was too careless. Because all along, except for the occasional few weird scenes in the Demon Heart, this heart has brought some positive benefits to itself.

So he was a little insensitive, and he even ignored the possible negative effects of the Demon Heart!

After all, this thing is something that even the corpse demon Haven, the former wizard king of the Alien Plane, fears.

"What do you want?"

After thinking about all this, Lance became calm.

The situation is irreparable, and it is useless for him to be bitter or angry.

He had to figure out where the heart in his body came from, and what was the danger of this thing?

If he can't figure it out, he might as well change to a weaker heart, after all, side effects like a fork in promotion. No one can afford it.

Including Reims.

"What do I want? What a smart little guy. The female voice whispered, "But I think." Let's talk about it another way. ”

"What do you mean?" said Lance frowned.

"I mean—what do you want?!" the female voice chuckled softly, "Because I wanted so many things that the old corpse demon was so frightened by my greed that he shrank back into the coffin." With the lessons of the past, I won't ask too much of you for a while. I want to hear what you want first. ”

"Force. Lance tentatively replied with one word.

"Very broad terms. It's also vulgar. But it's practical. The woman's voice was full of temptation: "About the amount of power." You've already tasted the sweetness of this heart, so I've already advanced this part to you. It's part of the deal. Next, it's time for you to give. ”

"Is this a deal?" asked Lance.

"You can see our relationship that way. Although I feel more like a parasite, because if I have one thought, your consciousness will be obliterated!" the female voice said darkly.

Lance frowned, not frightened by the other party's words, but faintly sensed that something was wrong.

"What do you need me to give?" he asked quietly.

The woman immediately replied, "Life, flesh, and soul!"

"Of course, it's all someone else's. If you choose to satisfy me with mortal flesh and blood, I can only be grudgingly satisfied, but if you are willing to give me the lives of your fellow wizards, I will grant you even greater strength. She said greedily, "As for the number, of course the more the merrier." In the twenty-four hours from now, I will need at least thirty mortal flesh and blood souls as a tribute. ”

Do you want to kill thirty people?

Lance's face was cloudy: "What good do I have." ”

"Force. The other party replied.

With this voice, Lance suddenly found that the mana pool in his chest had suddenly been assembled again, and he stayed there steadily.

"You can become a second-level wizard without any problems. That's what I pay you. The woman said.

"Heart-warming rewards. Lance said calmly.

The next second, he suddenly sneered: "But I choose to refuse!"

The woman's voice became grim: "Don't you want to become a second-level wizard?"

"Absolutely. But I'm thinking more about how to get you vicious woman out of my ears now. ”

Lance sneered and said, "After all, my time is limited, and I can't afford to delay." If it is delayed for too long, the newly constructed mana pool will damage the body's organs. I've got to hurry up and put it in the Secret Lands. ”

"Your magic pool, it's a joke!" said the woman viciously, "I won't let you get what you want." ”

In the next second, the magic pool in Lance's chest shattered again!

Lance said with an unchanged expression: "Whatever you want." Although this illusion is very real, it is still an illusion. ”

"I said, somehow, how could the mana pool collapse. But since it's an illusion, it's naturally possible. ”

"Now, please get out of my head at once!"

Lance's tone also became very fierce.

The woman's voice became a little panicked: "You—how could you have found ......?"

"Get out!"

An angry roar directly interrupted her words.

After a while, the woman's voice sounded low: "You can't escape...... I will be back. ”

The next second. The scene in front of me was slightly distorted.

Lance's mind recovered from the illusion, and his chest ached, and he saw that the blue-gray area had expanded in all directions.

He took a closer look, and saw that the full pool of dawn was floating right in his chest.

"You just can't eat too much poison. ”

Lance let out a long breath.

Another side effect of Smart is that it is prone to hallucinations. If a person is mentally strong and strong-willed, these hallucinations do not appear. But just now, just when Lance's mind was at its weakest, the side effects of the poison pill immediately set in, and he was led into a fantasy world. Almost sank inside.

Thankfully, the woman's words. He sensed something was wrong.

If she really had the strength to wipe out herself at any time, then why didn't she show up a long time ago, why did she have to show up at her promotion ceremony?

There is obviously only one answer, she is lying.

Soon, Lance reacted. He perfunctory to the other side. While trying to contact the fox.

Again, there was no response from the main chip. This strengthened his view.

Illusion is actually a cognitive deformity. Once the person who has fallen into the illusion realizes this, with a strong will. It's easy to break.

......

Awakened from his vision, Lance didn't waste any more time.

He chanted the incantation, opened the Secret Place, and placed the assembled pool of magic into it. When the door to the Secret Land slowly closed, and the sorcery vortex in the center of the magic pool glowed pale blue, Lance knew that he had succeeded!

Second-level wizard!

He did it!

However, this was not the time to celebrate, and he had to immediately begin deep meditation to restore his near-dry mental and magical powers.

In the brain domain, the rune representing the Vilen Meditation Technique shone with a faint brilliance.

Under the influence of meditation, the witchcraft vortex in the center of the magic pool began to spin at high speed!

Spell factors poured into his body in a frenzy. The outer walls of the mana pool shrank upwards, and the strainer-like holes attracted the flood of spell factors, which were compressed by the vortex of sorcery and transformed into new magical powers.

Lance's consciousness gradually entered a blank stage. He sat cross-legged on the ground, head slightly bowed, unconscious.

A deep meditative state is when a wizard is at his most vulnerable. If something dangerous happens at this time, they don't even have the slightest defense.

In the quiet and dark meditation room, time flies.

One day, two days...... In the blink of an eye, seven days have passed.

At noon on the eighth day, the door of the meditation room on the seventh floor of the Star Tower was opened.

A thin figure staggered out of it.

Lance's hair was messy, and although his eyes flashed with joy, the first action he took when he walked out of the meditation room was to look for food!

It turned out that during a long period of deep meditation, although he quickly recovered his mental power and magic power, his body was constantly consuming nutrients.

In just one week. He almost lost weight twice, and completely became a skinny teenager.

Feeling the hunger in his belly, Lance rushed out of the meditation room without even looking closely at the results of his meditation.

After a hasty meal, Lance lay down on the couch contentedly.

He squinted his eyes and rested for a moment before he picked himself up and noticed the changes in his body.

According to the fox's calculations, when he entered the realm of a second-level wizard, his combat power suddenly increased by five or six times! This is still on the premise that Lance has not learned second-level witchcraft.

He now uses a first-level spell, and his spell strength will also be multiplied, which is much more powerful than before.

In the process of promotion, the remnants of the burning magic fused into Lance's body, further improving his physical fitness.

His strength and physique have broken through the 5.0 mark. Agility, which is slightly weaker, also reaches 4.6.

This is already a very terrifying set of numbers, and even a third-level wizard is unlikely to have such a physical fitness.

However, what Lance is most concerned about is not the change in physical fitness.

"I wonder how much this deep meditation has improved my magic power?"

Lance opens his own stats panel in the main chip, and every moment of change in his body is recorded by the fox inside.

It's just that before he could check the relevant information, a new rune suddenly appeared in his brain.

"Huh? This is ...... This is my talent spell?"

"Yes, after being promoted to a second-level wizard, there is indeed a certain chance of awakening a talent spell, although this probability is relatively low. ”

"Looks like I'm in luck......" (To be continued......
