Chapter 263 Promotion and Calling
As the space fluctuated violently, a huge, illusory red figure appeared in the original place, and then gradually solidified, and finally turned into a red dragon again.
Cassius looked around at the environment that turned into white and burned with the fire of the abyss.
"Burning body explosion..."
"It's quite powerful."
Although he was relatively relaxed in this battle, this was actually partly due to his ability to restrain.
If the red dragon did not take action personally, this Balor Flame Demon could even destroy half of the Burning Kingdom alone. At least at present, the high-level forces of the kingdom have not been able to resist this demon. Even Rump can only barely support it. This is the powerful force from the abyss.
And when the abyss sent out the real high-level forces to contain him, the current Burning Kingdom troops would have to pay a painful price even if they won the abyss demon army with difficulty.
Fortunately, he destroyed the demon nest that Coman had developed for several years in one fell swoop, and the army of thousands of demons was also destroyed. At least in the short time when the abyss portal was not opened, they could no longer gather such a powerful force.
Cassius looked at the panel again, and then many more messages were refreshed.
[You killed [Baguara] and got 1800xp]
[You killed [Vro] and got 2300xp]
[You killed [Seducer] and got 5000xp]
[You killed [Berserker].]
[You killed [Newborn Balrog - Coman (Challenge Level: 18)] and got 20000xp]
"Three years have passed, and I finally have enough experience to upgrade."
Cassius sighed.
As a special template, in addition to killing enemies to absorb, he can also gradually accumulate that kind of strange energy during his sleep. After three years of continuous accumulation, coupled with the results of destroying the demon army, he can finally step onto a new level.
[You choose to upgrade [True Dragon Warlock] to level 13]
[Since dragons are born to cast spells, your current caster level is: 18]
But level 13 is more like a transitional stage for professionals, and there is no qualitative change. You can only obtain some additional spells. Cassius can only pray to the god of fate to get good spells from the inheritance.
Fortunately, his luck has never been bad.
[You get additional dragon spells [Mind Labyrinth] [Treasure Guardian]]
Mind Labyrinth
8th-ring enchantment spell [Mind-affecting]
Duration: until consumed
Your eyes narrow into a slit, while foul and smelly black energy floats above your head, sucking light and the lost thoughts of others.
You twist your mind into a magical maze that can confuse unaware casters. If an enemy casts a mind-affecting spell or ability on you, the maze-like layout of your consciousness will confuse him.
"Mind Labyrinth"
Cassius's expression was slightly surprised.
He has always lacked this type of control spell, and often needs to rely on [Tiamat's Horrible Illusion] to contain the enemy in battle.
But this is not without cost. Although this power does not come from Tiamat's gift, the more frequently this kind of spell related to the gods is used, the deeper the invisible "bond" between him and Tiamat will be. In the end, he will even be forcibly tied to the chariot behind the five-colored dragon, which is what Cassius never wants to see.
Now he has obtained the mind spells of the dragon race from the inheritance, and it is even at the eighth level. It can be said that he has made up for another shortcoming, which can make him more calm in battle.
Treasure ward
Fourth ring protection system
This spell will act on a continuous pile of treasures within the range. As long as any item is taken from the pile, its carrier will feel sick and vomit, unless the carrier's body is strong enough to resist.
The creature who wants to vomit must give up the mentioned item, otherwise the effect will be enhanced and cannot move. Note that every treasure worth 10 gold coins will be considered an "item".
"Chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, a pity to throw away."
"But it's better than nothing."
This is Cassius's evaluation of [Treasure Guard].
This spell is obviously a masterpiece of the dragon clan. It can be said that it vividly shows the greedy and stingy qualities of the dragons. They even designed this spell specifically to protect their treasures.
But in Cassius's opinion, this is more like the product of the dragon's excessive worry about the treasure. After all, it is difficult for the existence that can steal his treasure to be affected by this spell, and the weak existence that will be affected will be caught by the covetous dragons and tiefling guards before they even see his treasure house.
This can also work for those thieves who are proficient in concealment but weak in themselves.
A huge stream of information containing two spells poured into Cassius's mind, but he was already familiar with this feeling.
The caster level of up to 18 can make him easily understand everything about the eight-ring spell. After all, the upper limit of his will contacting the magic network has already reached the ninth level.
Cassius finally opened his eyes and turned his attention back to the messy environment around him.
The demons did not leave much of their bodies behind. After they died, their chaotic essence would return to the bottomless abyss, and their essence would become new demons.
And the former demon's lair, under the burning explosion of the Balor Flame Demon before his death, has turned into a scorched earth. Most of the mountain was destroyed by the horrible explosion, and the pits and potholes in the cave were also filled with burning abyss fire, and the passage leading to the depths of the cave was buried by collapsed rocks.
"So where does Koman's power come from?"
Casius stared at the abandoned cave, and his eyes narrowed slightly, with doubts in his pale golden pupils.
"He is just a young frost giant, and it is impossible for him to grow to this point in three years by his own strength."
"And the former Casius, as a young dragon who lost the protection of his mother dragon, could never grow into the 'Raging Flames of Mountains' that shook the Northland in just ten years, which was just a nap for the dragon, without external intervention."
"There is probably an abyss lord behind them."
Casius thought so.
He slightly opened his jaw and spit out a hot breath of fire. The flames easily melted and pierced through the piled rocks, and also revealed the dark and deep passage.
Suddenly, the red dragon's frilled ears trembled, and the forehead with protruding bone spurs wrinkled slightly.
He seemed to hear some kind of
call.
Yes, a call.
It was not transmitted through matter, but from a higher level of spiritual level, affecting and connecting his consciousness, which made Cassius alert in his heart and subconsciously built a fortress of the mind.
But the low voice still came from the void, and it was simply omnipresent.
"Come."
"You will come here and embrace the abyss."
