Chapter 717: To Be Safe, Upgrade!

"I, I..."

Vladimir was like a stuck tape, unable to utter a complete sentence.

In the end, the toad-headed demon elder took two steps forward and patted his shoulder meaningfully, which prevented Vladimir from suffocating to death on the spot.

"...Okay, cooperate well and don't be stupid. After all, it's not easy to get the devil prince..."

The latter seemed to have had his backbone taken away, and his whole body was limp.

If there wasn't a troll blocking him behind him, it might have turned into a puddle of mud and spread on the ground.

Kagmo and Bogan on the side were so scared that they peed!

The few words the demon elder just said have actually made it very clear——

You are the one who poked the hole, and you should also bear the blame.

Cooperate honestly, take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility, and when things turn around, everything will be fine.

If you dare to cheat and evade responsibility,

Not only will you have to bear all the responsibility for the crime, but you may also be killed on the spot!

all in all,

The three demon princes Vladimir cannot leave.

You must wait outside the entrance, waiting for Evelina and Lu Li to come out of the ancient basin.

"Now, let's talk about it carefully." Another demon elder also took off the hood on his head, revealing a deformed head covered with bone spurs.

There were two clusters of blue-purple flames burning in the hollow eye holes of his skull, as if if he stared at it for a moment longer, his soul would be sucked in.

"Describe to us everything that happened between you and these two challengers."

"Oh, by the way, you should all know my methods, so don't even think about lying..."

…

Inside the ancient basin.

The starting point of section 8.

Lu Li took out two bottles of purification potion and poured it into his mouth, and at the same time activated [Extreme Healing] to treat his injuries.

He just passed the seventh section in one breath, almost using up all the energy stored in the power bank behind him.

And because the frequency of attacks is intensive in the center of the road section, if you free up your hands to supplement, defense holes will inevitably appear.

So Lu Li could only grit his teeth and hold on!

Fortunately, there was no danger and he finally reached the starting point of the next section, allowing him to take a breather.

"Obviously to cope with the difficulty of the sixth section, I only used up five stamina power banks... I didn't expect that the seventh section actually consumed twenty of them..."

"The concentration of demonic energy in the surrounding environment has also increased by several levels. It seems a bit difficult to only rely on [Holy Barrier] and a sacred talent to block it..."

"If we continue according to this pattern, the eighth section may consume 80 power banks, which is enough energy for 400 people!"

"I only have a hundred full stamina power banks left in the ring now... It's not safe no matter how you look at it..."

"How about...upgrading?"

With this thought in his mind, Lu Li took out the [Vision Dissolving Mixture] that had been hidden in the ring for a long time.

This was originally after he completed his level 30 job transfer, thinking that if a powerful alien enemy invaded, he could improve his strength in a short period of time to deal with it.

However,

Because the situation developed much more smoothly than he imagined.

Therefore, the mixture has been stored in the ring and has not been used.

"If I remember correctly, the elemental crystals dissolved in the mixture should be enough to support my promotion to Lv. 69..."

"Forget it, we have to upgrade anyway. To be on the safe side, just raise the level!"

[Yuanjing Dissolving Mixture] is a mythical quality item that can dissolve any level of Yuanjing and absorb and store the experience points in it.

Although drinking solvent can only gain 80% of the experience points contained in it,

But there is no dissolution limit, which completely makes up for this shortcoming!

With his mind made up, Lu Li immediately began to take out the crystals from the space ring and put them into the mixture.

Even the tenth-level colored crystal given by the yellow-clothed travel merchant was dissolved without any hesitation.

After emptying the inventory, Lu Li still felt that it was not safe enough, so he took out the [Living Nest] and summoned Soul Guard Luo Yonghao from it.

Because the latter stayed in the [Living Nest] for a long time, living a life of a cow and a horse who "didn't hear anything outside the window and only focused on plowing small fields," he didn't know that Lu Li had taken him to the depths of the ancient basin.

I thought the other party was still in the main domain of the Chen family.

When I first came out, I almost choked to death from the strong demonic energy around me.

Fortunately, Lu Li was well prepared and used a [Divine Divine Shield] on him in time, thus preventing the soul guard from being quickly eroded into a shadow monster.

"Boss, what are you doing for me?" Luo Yonghao stared at the horrific scenes of flesh and blood around him and murmured:

"The demonic energy is so strong that it would be an exaggeration to call it hell..."

"Almost..." Lu Li grinned, and after a perfunctory sentence, he went straight to the point:

"How much of the Yuan Jing you have left?"

Luo Yonghao took the 'promotional path', and the talent he chose was still the [Underworld Lamp] he had during his lifetime.

The diamond-level 'Corpse Control' talent, coupled with the [Staff of the Dead] specially left for him by Lu Li, gave this 'Undead Farmer' a lot of corpse soldiers to raise.

Different from Lu Li’s soul soldiers,

Whether it's Ant-Man or a ghoul,

As long as there are physical corpse soldiers, they must eat to maintain their strength and ensure evolution.

So on weekdays, whenever Lu Li came across a corpse, whether it belonged to a monster or a player, he would strip it naked and throw it into the living lair.

Just to fill those hungry mouths.

But later, due to the increase in the number of corpses and Lu Li's own laziness.

He began to stop carefully cleaning the equipment and props on the corpse.

Only pick up precious and useful things.

After confirming that there is nothing like [Self-Explosion Talisman] or [Desecrated Water] that would damage the living nest, directly throw the corpse into it.

Luo Yonghao inside is responsible for collecting and classifying.

After a while, he will collect it once.

In addition to equipment props and potion materials, Yuanjing is also an important accumulation.

But since Lu Li discovered that Luo Yonghao could consume Yuan Jing inside the living lair to extend the 'time acceleration' feature of the lair, he deliberately excluded Yuan Jing from his routine collection.

Don't ask,

Just asking is lazy.

If it can be fully automatic, who would bother to do it manually?

But now, it's time to collect a wave!

"Well, I haven't counted them carefully. They are all piled up into a hill, about five meters high. There are four and a half in total."

The expression on Luo Yonghao's face was still confused, but he still gestured and said:

"When I usually charge the living lair, I always use the low-level ones first. When I've almost used them, I then pick the high-level ones."

"The most numerous ones now should be the fourth-order elemental crystals..."

Lu Li made a rough estimate and nodded slightly:

"Okay, take this in, put all the Yuanjing in, and then bring it out to me."

As he spoke, the Yuan Jing Dissolving Mixture was stuffed into Luo Yonghao's arms:

"Later, I will adjust the time flow rate inside the [Living Nest] to the fastest speed to shorten the time it takes you to invest the Yuanjing."

"But you have to act quickly, I don't have much time to wait."

Lu Li looked around, his eyes gradually becoming serious.

According to the prompts on the map, although the starting point of the road section is a safety zone, it is only a temporary safety zone.

If you stay too long, those flesh and blood monsters wandering on the path of pain will come to you.
