Chapter 372: Improvement and New Abilities

"I don't know how Lacey is doing now. I remember she said she wanted to become the governor of Caster City-State."

"Really? Then she must be an excellent governor."

Perhaps in front of familiar people, Wei En did not pay too much attention to the mysterious and weird things such as "World Clothes", "Chaos Sect", "Disaster Sect", "Ms. Disaster" and so on.

At the same time, it also reminded him of the normal life in Caster City-State.

Although it was only a month, his understanding of this world was mostly based on his experience during that period.

He knew about the Orthodox Church, Dawn, Storm, Earth and Red Moon, etc. They treated ordinary people as shelter and fooled them, all for the power of faith.

He also came into contact with the evil god sects, such as Desire, Despair, Abyss, etc. The meaning of the existence of these sects seemed to be deliberately contrary to the Orthodox Church, eroding ordinary people to fall and sacrifice, but everything was still for their gods to gain more powerful power.

In addition, there are nobles, such as those of the Glory Society, who are good at looking at everything from the perspective of interests and self-interest.

The so-called noble glory is like eating a wave of bonuses from the distorted extraordinary system, and luckily integrating into the bloodline to become an extraordinary person.

"Remember the Never-Sleeping City?" Seeing that he was a little distracted, Marco took the initiative to mention this impressive place.

"Of course," Wayne chuckled, "I remember you took the opportunity of going out to investigate and sneaked to the Never-Sleeping City. After being discovered by Lacey..."

The end was extremely tragic.

"If it weren't for you, how could I be beaten by Lacey?" Marco also laughed, "To be honest, I was really surprised that you would appear there that day."

"I also didn't expect that the secret passage of the Ceres family would lead to the Never-Sleeping City."

Wayne recalled that he was chased by the Vasquez family and fled to the Never-Sleeping City with old Ceres, as if it was just yesterday.

However, it was also the investigation experience in the Ceres family that made him taste the great improvement brought to him by killing.

"Yes, no one would have thought of what happened later."

Marco thought of that night. Before that, he could not have thought that he would appear on the sea.

Not only did he give up the glory of his family, but he also gave up the leisurely life in the Caster City-State and chose to become a pirate.

The two chatted casually, and the roar of hundreds of gunmen training [Explosive Sniper Rifles] was heard in their ears, giving them a feeling of quiet in the midst of noise.

However, such time is always short. Not long after, Black Jack and Menor arrived. Wayne took over the relics of the Third Age that they had sorted out, and prepared to return to the theater space to read them.

"Wizard Wayne, do you want to participate in the attack on the island to which the Araniga belongs later?"

Wayne thought about it, shook his head and refused: "You go, and call me when you find the location of Suade and others."

The pirates left on the island are not strong, most of them are ordinary people, and the rewards they get are limited. It is better to go to the deep sea to kill.

Moreover, the damage caused by his attack is too great, and it is not as suitable as Black Jack and others.

"Then we will set off now. If you need anything, go directly to Walid or Marco."

"Okay."

After the two left, Wayne said hello to Marco and returned to the theater space directly through the golden key.

…

Wayne returned to the studio, and instead of rushing to look through the relics of the era, he opened the panel and took a look—

Name: Wayne Loft

Occupation: Great Wizard (Primary)

Toughness Level: 27122.13

Spirit Level: 27122.65

Origin: 3412 (3413) (1 point of origin is sealed)

Talent: Deception (Proficient), Spiritual Transformation (Proficient)

Features: Ballistic Control, Secret Detection, Rapid Fire

Partner Contract: Healing, Teleportation (Disaster)

Servant Contract: Mitra (Desire Cult Favored), Nightmare Worm (Messenger)

Rune Knowledge Tree: Rune Mastery (20/1000 Runes)

Potion Knowledge Tree: Potion Proficiency (92/100)

Survival Points: 381356

“Survival Points, Origin, Basic Attributes, Skills…” Wayne checked and confirmed one by one.

Although the survival points are enough for him to improve several skills, the improvement in his overall strength is not obvious.

After thinking for a while, Wei En decided to follow his previous idea. The existing eight original sub-bodies would only learn six spell systems. In addition to the fate divination system that he had not yet learned and mastered, he needed to brand two of the remaining three original sub-bodies with the existing spell system runes.

Then, he summoned the original sub-bodies, looked at the ghost and smiled: "I'll find you two younger brothers."

"Baba, are you going to continue to improve?" The ghost looked at the other original sub-bodies, implying that these were not his younger brothers.

"Bang."

The driver, as the second original sub-bodies to come out, did not indulge him and gave him a headbutt directly.

Wei En smiled and did not care about the fight between them. Instead, he found two original sub-bodies with only the soul-devouring spell rune and the soul-melting rune engraved on their eyebrows, and began to brand them with the spell runes of the undead spell system.

With previous experience, he completed the rune branding of the two original sub-bodies in less than an hour.

And because of the existence of the ghost, the newly formed spell rune marks are of the same level, eliminating the consumption of survival points.

"Baba, do you need to fuse the source power into the spell mark?" Ghost No. 2 asked proactively.

"Is it possible?"

Wayne was stunned for a moment. Could it be that when the spell marks of the same spell system are the same, the progress of fusion of the source is also shared?

If so, that would be great!

In the future, after he improves the ghost meditation method, the extra source sub-body can further increase the speed of his fusion of spell rune marks!

"Of course." Ghost No. 3 smiled and said, "Baba, I can also fuse it."

Wayne did not hesitate and directly asked them to try to fuse, "Fuse Corpse Explosion and Fear Howl."

Ghost No. 2: "Fusing Corpse Explosion takes ten days and occupies 300 sources."

Ghost No. 3 also said: "Fear Howl takes 25 days and occupies 500 sources."

"Three hundred, five hundred, a total of eight hundred source power, plus the previous two thousand eight, which means at least three thousand six hundred source power."

Wayne calculated, and then converted part of the spirit and toughness level into source power through the spiritual conversion talent.

Resilience level: 26464.13

Spirit level: 26464.65

Origin: 3600 (3601) (1 point of origin is sealed)

After doing all this, Wei En looked at the forehead mark of Ghost No. 2 and No. 3, which were fusing the power of origin, and couldn't help but smile.

This should be the happiest thing he has encountered in recent times.

If he had known that the origin sub-bodies of the same spell system could fuse spell runes at the same time, he would definitely imprint the runes as soon as the meditation method was upgraded.

Then, Wei En checked the survival points required to upgrade the ghost meditation method. It takes one million survival points to upgrade from level 6 to level 7.

"Well... we have to wait..."

After thinking about it, Wei En decided to upgrade other spells first, and then upgrade the meditation method after he had enough survival points.

On the one hand, he could get survival points from those deep-sea mutants later. It would only take a few days, so he would not lack survival points.

On the other hand, he was a little worried that upgrading the meditation method without imprinting runes on the origin sub-bodies would bring other effects.

Therefore, he had to first imprint the fate divination spell system, imprint all the eight origin sub-bodies' forehead marks, and then upgrade the meditation method.

As for now——

Wai En directly chose to add points on the panel, and first upgraded the spells that would be helpful for the next battle.

Undead Claw (Death) Level 4 (1/50000)... (50000/50000).

[Undead Claw (Death) Level 4 (50000/50000), do you want to upgrade? ]

[Upgrade. ]

[Congratulations, your skill: Undead Claw (Death) Level 4 is upgraded to Level 5. Effect: In the name of the Death, summon a hand of the Skeleton King in the depths of the Undead World. ]

[Note 1: The Skeleton King's bone palm attack power is comparable to the Kingdom Hand Level 1 attack. ]

[Note 2: Because of your identity as the controller of death, you will prioritize summoning the Skeleton King who has the identity of "Deadpool" in the Undead World. ]

[Your skill: Shadow Coil (Death) from level 4 to level 5. Effect: You can summon the arm of an undead creature at the level of the Hand of the Kingdom, and the range depends on the consumption of spiritual power. ]

[Note 1: Because of your identity as the master of death, you will give priority to summoning undead creatures with the identity of "Deadpool" in the undead world. ]

[...Shadow Step (Death) from level 4 to level 5, effect: When activating the spell, 10 toughness levels are consumed per second, the movement speed is increased by 50%, and you can stay in the protection of the kingdom of death for 30 seconds. ]

[Note 1: In the name of the god of death Alanar, you can enter the periphery of the kingdom of death, and your sight can be focused on the kingdom of death. ]

[Note 2: Don't look directly at the god of death Alanar for a long time, as that will make him sense your presence. ]

In addition to the spells of the undead spell system, Wayne also upgraded some spells with lower survival point consumption and slightly lower levels.

Including the five spells of Healing, Strong Wall, Blood Mark and Shadow Thorn from the flesh and blood strengthening system, Fireball, Lightning Bolt, Mental Shock, Frost Shock, Water Elemental Spirit from the elemental spell system, together with Claws of the Dead and Death Coil, a total of 380,000 survival points were consumed.

"There are new changes!"

After the upgrade was completed, Wei En carefully checked the prompts on the panel and found two places that were different from the previous spell upgrades.

One is Claws of the Dead and Death Coil from the Undead spell system. These two spells can summon undead creatures in the undead world to attack.

After the upgrade, these two spells can actually give priority to summoning undead creatures with the identity of "Deadpool".

"If I remember correctly, there are five undead creatures with the identity of 'Deadpool' now."

"One is the liaison officer, who was transformed into a zombie. The second one is a skeleton monster, which was transformed from the third-level disaster on Dakman Island."

"The third one to be transformed is the gravedigger of the Dusk Cult, who summoned the 'Lord of Truth and Killing' McAllister."

"The fourth one is the third-level disaster summoned by the Lord of the Abyss Gregory when Ales attacked Alexei Island, and was transformed into a zombie monster."

"The last one is a legendary vice captain who was killed in the last attack on the Douglas. He was transformed into a skeleton warrior."

After some calculation, Wei En immersed himself in his mind, feeling the five marks far away in the world of the dead.

He could vaguely see the current situation of the five undead creatures with the identity of "Deadpool", and three of the marks were very close.

That is, the three undead creatures he transformed at the beginning, a female zombie, a skeleton beast, and a ghoul, they are now in a dead sea in the world of the dead.

"Tsk!"

After sensing it, Wei En couldn't help but grin.

Long before, he discovered that the liaison officer was doing well in the world of the dead, with the skeleton beast feeding him, and now she was even more excessive, actually letting the ghoul transformed from the gravedigger be her bodyguard.

She sat on the pile of corpses, and all the undead thrown up by the skeleton beast would be killed by the ghoul, and the origin core would be taken out for her to devour.

"Life is really good. I wonder if she will still remember me when I see her again. If she still remembers..."

It must be very interesting!

…

…

In the unknown sea, the wind is calm. On the two connected islands, countless corpses are scattered. Blood flows into the deep sea along the terrain, causing hundreds of deep-sea mutants to churn under the sea.

In the center of the island, two piles of human heads are placed on the altar.

Their appearance is clean and tidy, and even their greasy hair has been specially cleaned. It is not only soft and shiny, but also reasonably fits their face shape.

However, on their bloodless and pale faces, there are pairs of lifeless eyes, as if covered with a layer of gauze-like white mist, turbid and unclear.

The altar below is made of bronze and is square in shape. There is a circle at each corner. The circle is engraved with complex marks, and the patterns are constantly changing over time, like a living creature.

In front of the head that was looking straight ahead, several figures wrapped in golden bandages stood tall, and behind them were hundreds of gravediggers, with tombstones in their hands swinging unconsciously, making muffled bangs.

"Have you checked it?"

"Lord Engelbert, I have carefully confirmed the two altars. The alchemy array is operating normally. The only thing left is the opening of the sacrifice ceremony."

The golden bandaged man in the lead had a pair of cold and emotionless eyes. After scanning around, he waved his hand and said: "Activate the secret array and temporarily save these two islands."

"Yes!"

After a while, dark clouds gathered above the two islands, and the dim mist rolled down to form two swirling tornadoes, slowly covering the two islands.

The next second, the surging waves washed over without hindrance, carrying the deep-sea mutants attracted by the bloody smell around them.

"There are still eleven missing..."

"Lord Engelbert, to be precise, there are still ten missing. On the Silent Island, we can rely on oak trees to form the required sacrifices."

"That means there are still ten missing..."

Engelbert turned around and looked at the other figures in golden bandages, and asked indifferently: "Have the wizards found anything?"

"Not yet, but I think it should be soon. The arrangement there has been completed, and it will soon release the breath of 'truth and killing' to the outside world. I believe it will attract the attention of Vaklav and others."

"Yeah."

Engelbert nodded, and the corners of his mouth under the bandage slightly raised, "According to the plan, in another month, the alchemy array will be ready. When the sacrifice ceremony begins, no one will be able to hinder the arrival of the great master!"

"The transformation between reality and illusion, we should be the protagonists of this world!!"

"Hahaha... I look forward to it!"

...

...

Wayne learned a lot of things, whether it was the purpose of the joint expedition of the three major wizard schools, the arrangement of the Twilight Sect at sea, or the war between the Araniga and the Black Pearl, he knew all of these.

However, he only grasped the general direction and knew the trend of the event, but he was not aware of the many secrets hidden in it.

For example, the next move of the Dusk Sect, how the "Lord of Truth and Killing" McAllister would come, and why Chief Vaklav and others were afraid of the Chaos Sect hidden in the dark...

Although he could not tell the secrets of these major events, Wayne knew that the operation of the world was not centered on him.

He was preparing for the Araniga and the Lady of Disaster, so Suade and the Lady of Disaster must have their own plans.

Everyone is working hard for their own goals - idealists, only for themselves!

At this time, Wayne sat quietly in front of the workbench, took out a scroll of epoch relics and flipped through it.

Seeing the strange faces or whispers on those relics, he was no longer moved, and the spiritual power attached to his hands instantly smoothed them out.

"In the 687th year of the Turing Empire, the sun was shining brightly in the middle of the East Continent. The sun seemed to have grown bigger, making people feel listless and lazy. However, as a believer of the great Church of the Sun, it gave me even more powerful power."

"In the 1011th year of the Turing Empire, many major events occurred in the Dickens City-State of the West Continent, which made people feel uneasy."

[You have successfully unlocked new Gonzalez vocabulary. Evaluation: You have gained knowledge... Special rewards: Survival points +10, Gonzalez +2. ]

As the reading of the relics continued, Wayne also encountered some Gonzalez words that he did not recognize, but he translated them all based on the context and gained some improvement.

Compared to the relic left by Claire, the contents of the epoch relics brought by Menor and Black Jack are very messy. Some record people's livelihood, some praise gods, and some record major events.

However, he never saw the records of the Disaster Sect and Lady Disaster that he wanted to find, until-

"In the 323rd year of the Turing Empire, the Sun Church held a grand God's Day in the Umaru City-State. The eldest prince, Byrne Lilith Leonard, together with Archbishop Canderus, prayed to the great Sun God to bless Turing for a long time."

"During this period, the two princesses, Tina Lilith Leonard and Anyu Lilith Leonard, had a quarrel, which made the believers of the Sun Church very unhappy."

"Archbishop Canderus even wanted to tell His Majesty Turing I Carol Leonard that he wanted to severely punish Princess Tina..."

As Wayne's translation deepened, a light and shadow seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and he saw what happened that day in the distant past.

He subconsciously activated his specialty-secret detection!

Wei En's eyes blurred in a trance, and the dreamlike scene gradually became real...
