As soon as Madam Elina died, the dark elves in the square lost their fighting spirit and were quickly slaughtered.
Alan put all their souls into the magic mirror.
Killing all of Elina's cronies, a total of more than 200 dark elf souls were accumulated, and the worst of them were also second-level troops.
Elite drow warriors and experienced drow assassins are third-level troops.
There are more than thirty drow warlocks and priestesses in total, and their souls can be exchanged for the fourth-level troops of the Burning Legion!
With the addition of these powerful mercenaries, Alan is confident that he can gain a foothold in the Underdark!
Although the ogre wizard ancestor spirit that Alan merged with was reluctant to make a deal with the devil, he was not unable to accept using the devil's power to fight against the dark elves.
Fighting violence with violence and evil with evil, Allen put his own philosophy into practice and gained the recognition of the ancestral spirits, thus achieving a stage of perfect meditation.
Successfully broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the early stage of the fifth level!
After upgrading, all attributes are comprehensively improved.
Current attributes: 47 physique, 32 agility, 54 spirit
Potential reserve: 19 points
The palm bone spurs evolved again, extending their extension length to 30 meters.
Including his fists and feet, all the organs on Allen's body that can be used as weapons are equivalent to level 3 enchanted weapons.
Fifth level atavism, poisonous wizard form, no obvious change in body shape.
Physique, agility, spirit and natural armor are all +10!
The beast armor inherited from the blood of the leopard man breaks through the upper limit of the mainstream beastman. At least level 3 enchanted silver is required to break the armor.
The anti-magic barrier inherited from the bloodline of the ogre wizard has been upgraded to level 3.
Immune to most magic below level 3, as well as supernatural attacks of the same level, such as level 3 dragon breath and level 3 magical martial arts.
The last and most surprising evolution for Alan...
In the fifth-level atavism state, the "fast self-healing" physique derived from the beast bloodline can be replaced by the "regeneration" physique of the ogre wizard!
…
Regeneration: If a creature loses a part of its limb, it can automatically regenerate the limb. High temperature and strong acid can temporarily suppress cell regeneration.
…
After reading the system's introduction to "regeneration", Alan decided to do an experiment.
Experience for yourself whether “regenerating” physique is really that magical.
He first used the bone spur that popped out from the palm of his left hand to stab his right hand.
The bone spur pierced the hand, but was blocked by the soft and resilient skin and could not penetrate deeper.
Allen's bone spurs are equivalent to a level 3 enchanted weapon.
Without silver plating, it would indeed be blocked by its own beast armor.
Fortunately, Alan can use his mind to suppress the beast armor and make it temporarily ineffective.
Remove this layer of natural armor and the bone spurs will be unstoppable.
With a "whoosh" sound, the right hand was pierced directly.
Scarlet blood beads then gushed out.
Alan twitched the corner of his mouth.
Enduring the stinging pain in the palm of your hand, you pull out the bone spur.
As he watched, the wound on his palm healed .
The entire healing process takes only 6 seconds.
Apart from the remaining blood, there were no signs of injury.
That’s all, and it doesn’t explain how strong the “regenerative” physique is.
The same therapeutic effect can also be achieved through “rapid self-healing”.
If Alan wants to test the difference between "regeneration" and "rapid self-healing", he has to be harder on himself!
Which of the human body's tissues and organs can be removed without causing obvious harm to health?
appendix?
Appendix?
It is too troublesome to perform surgery to remove these internal organs.
Alan didn't want to cut himself open with his own hands.
He hardened his heart, gritted his teeth, pulled out the "Sister-in-law's Blade", and cut towards the little finger of his left hand!
Snap!
The knife flashed, and the finger, about one centimeter long, was cut off!
Alan endured the pain and observed the cross-section of the severed finger.
There was bleeding, but the amount was much less than normal.
As he watched, the bloody broken bones and flesh began to sprout many wriggling little buds.
Alan suddenly had an idea, picked up the severed finger with his right hand and pressed on the broken part.
The granulation tissue that emerged from the wound immediately fused with the severed finger, which still had vitality.
Within seconds, the severed finger was reattached as before, without any visible scar.
Alan wiped the blood with a handkerchief and hooked his left little finger.
Apart from a slight pain, my fingers are still as flexible as usual.
After moving it a couple more times, even the pain disappeared.
Alan nodded and chopped down again!
The severed finger that had just been reattached was cut off again!
This time, Allen did not manually reattach the severed finger.
Endure the pain and watch quietly.
The cross-section of a severed finger shows the budding flesh and the growing bone, which reshape the missing limb at a speed visible to the human eye.
There is not much difference from the original fingers, except that the skin is whiter and more delicate, like a baby's skin.
The severed finger was regenerated, and the whole process took less than a minute.
Afterwards, Alan felt a little tired and his stomach was growling.
It seems that you have just engaged in long-term, high-intensity physical activity and consumed a lot of energy.
This is normal.
Regeneration is actually overdrawing one's own energy in exchange for the regeneration of severed limbs.
The more serious the injury, the greater the consumption of the body will be in repairing it.
Afterwards, it is best to replenish nutrition in a timely and abundant manner and get enough rest.
If overdrawn energy cannot be replenished in time, it will shorten your lifespan!
Alan couldn't help but think of the troll.
When it comes to regenerative physique, people often think of trolls first.
Ignorant people, spreading false information, actually believe that trolls are immortal.
This has led to many absurd statements.
For example, if you stuff a troll into a stove and use it as firewood, you can get a stove that never goes out.
For example, you can cut meat from trolls and obtain inexhaustible food ingredients.
These fantastic legends are simply impossible to come true.
High temperatures can inhibit the regeneration of flesh and blood, and the trolls in the furnace will be burned to ashes. This rumor is easily dispelled.
The second rumor... was actually verified by the trolls themselves.
Stupid trolls, when food is scarce, will indeed eat their own flesh to satisfy their hunger.
This is not an uncommon phenomenon; some octopuses have similar habits.
It eats its own tentacles when hungry, and grows them back when food is plentiful.
The difference between a troll and an octopus is that the troll's limb regeneration speed is much faster than that of an octopus' tentacles!
To the point that it creates an illusion that one can produce and sell by oneself in an infinite cycle.
However, the trolls eat their own hands and feet, which only gives them a false sense of fullness.
In order to regenerate severed limbs, the energy consumed is much greater than the little energy obtained when advancing.
If this continues, the troll will soon die of exhaustion.
Yes, trolls are not "immortal ".
You will feel hungry, thirsty, and even suffocate to death when you can't breathe.
Of course Alan would not do such a stupid thing as "eating his fingers".
He always carried plenty of spare dry food in his storage bag.
After the limbs regenerate, a big meal can replenish the nutrients and avoid shortening your lifespan.
In the early stage of his promotion to the fifth level, Allen also awakened two fifth-ring magics.
The first one is "Breaking the Barrier", which is specifically used to remove various negative states, such as charm, hypnosis, immobilization, curse, petrification and parasitism.
There is also a "Moonlight Veil".
Spend 12 mana points to create a hazy moonlight.
Any shapeshifting creature under the moonlight, if its mental resistance is not high enough, will be cursed and its shapeshifting ability will be permanently sealed.
Obviously, "Moonlight Veil" is an enhanced version of the 5-ring "Moonlight Light", and it is a bit like the "Moon Shadow Bomb" synthesized by Allen himself.
Compared with "Moonlight Light" and "Moon Shadow Bomb", the advantage of "Moonlight Veil" is that it has a longer range of 300 meters and a wider coverage area with a radius of 30 meters!
"Moonlight Veil" is undoubtedly a powerful weapon against the beast type.
Especially on a large battlefield, a "Moonlight Veil" can cover an area of ​​nearly 3,000 square meters!
The cursed beastmen and beast warlocks have their beast abilities collectively sealed.
Unable to transform, nor able to revert to his original form, his combat power was weakened by at least 60%!
The only flaw in the "Moonlight Veil" is that it is not lethal.
If the enemy resists the Moonlight Curse through willpower, this magic will have no effect on him.
Alan naturally made the association.
If the "Moonlight Veil" and "Moon Shadow Bomb" were combined, combining the former's large-scale curse effect with the latter's double damage to deformed creatures, wouldn't it be perfect?
This idea is worth trying.
But before that, Alan had to practice the "Moonlight Veil" diligently.
Whether it is martial arts or magic, a certain level of proficiency must be reached before it can be used as fusion material and included in the system's examination.
After finishing today's practice, Alan sent and received several letters to learn about the latest news of his relatives and friends.
Feilin, Julie, and Taona's practice in the mushroom garden is steadily improving.
Over in the Silver Moon Secret Realm, Instructor Pansen and Senior Sister Tanya have also touched the threshold of breaking through.
Kelly, Renee, and Angie have all made great progress during this time.
Especially Kelly.
Alan invested the most effort in his sister, and his sister did not disappoint him.
The path of spiritual practice starts the latest but progresses the fastest!
Kelly now has caught up with Tigress Leni and her cultivation has reached the early stage of the fourth level!
This is certainly because Kelly is talented and hardworking enough, but it is not Renee's fault that she does not work hard enough.
After all, this Tigress has to work part-time as Allen's maid and Master Shiva's nanny, so she can't devote all her energy to practice like Kelly.
Renee has a good attitude.
He wasn't in a hurry to be caught up by Kelly, let alone jealous.
He is still smiling all day long, busying about here and there, and enjoying himself.
Junior Sister An Qi’s cultivation has reached the late fourth stage.
He comprehended the "Moon Shadow Bullet" instilled by Alan, as well as the advanced version of the "Fighting Spirit Thread" - the "Fighting Spirit Net".
However, the little sister was not in a good mood.
Yesterday, she received a message from her mother, Ms. Sora, and was so angry that she couldn't sleep well all night!
Taking the opportunity of correspondence, he confessed his grievances to Allen.
"Brother! Our Keith family is in trouble again!"
"That guy named Grisha, the scum of the Beast Cult!"
"I sent two apprentices to my house to cause trouble, but you beat them away."
"I didn't expect Grisha to not give up!"
"You are so arrogant that you call yourself my father and claim that you will come to pick up your daughter in person in seven days and take me back to Red Moon Island to recognize my ancestors."
"You despicable rapist, how can you say that?"
"Bah! Why doesn't he take a piss and look at himself? Does he deserve it?!"
Alan first comforted his junior sister to calm her down, and then sent a letter to Teacher Sora to inquire about the matter.
The results confirmed that Anqi's description was not exaggerated at all.
The ultimatum that Grisha gave to Madam Kes consisted of only three sentences.
"In seven days, I will come to pick up my daughter in person and take her back to her ancestral home."
"If Angie isn't here, I'll kill your whole family!"
"Anyone who dares to obstruct will be killed without mercy!"
The arrogance is beyond description!
"Teacher Sora, what is Grisha's current level of cultivation?"
"He is an elder of the Beast Worship Sect, and his cultivation should be in the late fourth stage."
After receiving Sora's reply, Alan fell into thought.
Teacher Sora concluded that Grisha's cultivation had not yet reached the fifth level, otherwise he should have advanced to the "Rakshasa Evil Demon".
His position in the church will also be upgraded from elder to archdeacon level.
However, with a mere late fourth stage, he dares to speak so arrogantly?
Grisha's cultivation level is about the same as Angie's.
If the two of them fight one-on-one, An Qi won't necessarily lose.
Where did he get the courage to come and snatch someone away?
Even if Grisha didn't know Angel's current level of cultivation, he should at least know that Angel had a close relationship with him, Alan Panthers, and was also a direct disciple of Master Shiva.
Angel's hometown, Kais Town, belongs to the sphere of influence of the Silver Moon Monastery.
Grisha declared that he was going to cause trouble in Keyes Town. Wasn't he afraid of angering the Silver Moon Monastery and never coming back?
If Grisha really wanted to take Angie away, he should have followed her secretly, waited patiently for the opportunity for Angie to leave the monastery alone, and then kidnapped her.
But how did he do it?
Publicize it in advance so that the whole world knows about it!
What is even more puzzling is that they claimed that they would not visit until seven days later.
It seemed as if they had deliberately given the Case family ample time to inform the Silver Moon Monastery and seek help.
The more Allen thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and he vaguely smelled a hint of conspiracy.
If Grisha's visit to snatch his daughter was just a cover, what was his real purpose?
With doubts in mind, Alan took out a small amount of "Forget Spores" as the material for casting the "Wind Signal Spell" and sent a letter to Spanna who was far away on Red Moon Island to inquire about the inside story.
The pink spores merged into a small whirlwind and disappeared into thin air.
Just a few seconds later, Alan's question was transmitted directly to Spanna's mind through remote telepathy.
Not long after, Allen received a reply from Spanna.
"Elder Grisha is a close confidant of Queen Bee Weiss. I have a distant relationship with the Bee Clan, so I don't know what they are planning recently."
"Don't worry, there's still plenty of time. I'll try to find out."
"Besides, I just happen to have something important to discuss with you!"
"I have already told my mother your suggestion, and I have also shown her the first-level anti-aging potion you made yourself!"
"Guess what? My mother praised your medicine-making skills!"
"She also said that even she herself couldn't make such a perfect potion!"
"Later, she learned that the Panthes Holy Water you invented is not only effective in treating lycanthropy, but also has no side effects. She became even more interested in you."
"My dear! When is it convenient for you to meet with my mother and exchange ideas on alchemy skills?"
"Just as you said, we will provide the prescription and herbs, and you will help my mother make the second-level anti-aging agent."
"If you succeed in refining it, how about we split the potion in half?"
"To show my sincerity, you will specify the time and place of the meeting."
"When the time comes, mother will only take my sister and me to the appointment."
"Don't play tricks on your side, you can only bring two people at most!"
At the end of the reply, Spanna issued a solemn warning.
At least she had not forgotten that the Silver Moon Monastery, to which Allen belonged, and the Beast Cult, to which she belonged, were hostile.
The two sides contacted each other privately to exchange medicine-making techniques, but they also had to be wary of each other.
Alan really wanted to communicate with the Spider Queen and use the herbs and formulas she provided to refine a second-level anti-aging agent.
However, he wanted to help his junior sister solve her troubles first.
So he wrote back to Spanna, briefly telling her about the feud between Grisha and Sora and Angie, the mother and daughter.
Let Spanna tell the Spider Queen to restrain Grisha and tell him not to bother Angie anymore.
Alan felt that his request was reasonable.
As the Pope, Caroline could easily dispel Grisha's delusions with just one word.
Spanna's reply surprised him greatly and even made him angry!
"Of course my mother can restrain Grisha, but one thing is one thing. If you owe her a favor, you must pay an equal price."
What does "owing someone a favor" mean?
Why should I “pay the price”?
Alan was simply amused.
Caroline's attitude towards this matter is like:
My subordinates always bully you. I can make them stop with just one word, but you have to pay me protection money!
Doesn't this mean that if you don't have any chips, you have to create them out of thin air?
Isn't it just robbery disguised as extortion?
Apart from the fact that the way they eat looks a little better, isn't it essentially the logic of a robber?
Caroline, the Pope of the Beast Cult, how could she act like a gangster boss? !
Wait a moment……
Alan thought again, the Beast Cult is a gang that worships evil gods, so there seems to be nothing wrong with this style of plundering and robbery.
Reluctantly suppressing his anger, Allen wrote back to Spanna, discussing the matter at hand:
"The Kes family is at least a warlock family with a certain reputation on Silver Moon Island. You are causing trouble on Silver Moon Island, do you think there is no one in my Silver Moon Monastery?!"
Spanna's reply faithfully conveyed the Spider Queen's arrogant attitude.
"My mother said that on Silver Moon Island, the only person who can make her feel a little bit afraid is Shiva."
"Master Shiva is seriously injured now. Even if he retreats to the secret realm to recuperate, he will not be able to recover in just three months."
"At least right now, this period of time is really the golden period for us, the Beast Cult, to stir up trouble on Silver Moon Island!"
"You only saw us, the Beast Worshipers, causing trouble on Silver Moon Island. How did your disciples from the monastery make contributions to the sect?"
"Do you really not know, or are you pretending to be confused?"
"Aren't those all caused by killing and setting fires on our Red Moon Island?!"
In the following words, Spanna also expressed her own little emotions.
"My mother was attacked by the three great leaders of your monastery and was seriously injured. She was forced to live in seclusion in a secret place to recover from her injuries."
"During that time, you Silver Moon Monastery were so rampant that you often went to Red Moon Island to rob us and killed many of us. Why didn't you say anything?"
"What is a feud? This is a feud!"
"The feud between our two families can be traced back hundreds of years. It's a mess and it's impossible to sort out who is right and who is wrong."
"No one is innocent, so don't blame anyone for taking advantage of someone else's misfortune!"
"My dear! I treat you as my own, so I explain everything to you."
"If I can help you personally, I will do it without hesitation."
"But my mom...excuse me, do you have such a relationship with me?"
"Why should we restrict our own people and give a favor to outsiders for free?"
"Of course, if you can make a second-level anti-aging agent that satisfies my mother, that would be another matter."
"Face is earned by yourself, not given by others!"
"My dear! Calm down and think about it carefully!"
Alan had to admit that there was some truth to what Spanna said.
After calming down and considering carefully, he replied the last letter.
"See you in Kes Town in seven days."
"The Case family has a well-equipped pharmacy. I can exchange alchemy skills with your mother there."
Spanna quickly responded:
"My dear, you chose to meet there on purpose. You must be very scheming!"
"Mother asked me to tell you... you must be on time for the appointment!"
After ending his correspondence with Spanna, Alan sent letters to Sora and Angie.
He comforted the mother and daughter and told them to relax. After seven days, he would accompany them back to Keys Town to visit their relatives and completely solve the problem of Grisha.
Although the letter sounded lighthearted, Alan was actually feeling quite heavy-hearted.
Seven days later, there will be a bloody storm in Kes Town!
His opponent is not just Grisha...
Putting his worries aside for the moment, Alan returned to the mushroom garden.
Next, he had to seize the time and focus on studying the newly-comprehended 5th-ring magic "Moonlight Veil" to prepare for the coming storm.
