Chapter 34: The Dead Souls
Bai Qi took out a monocle from his pocket and put it on. He glanced at the flaming ghost and relevant information immediately appeared on the lens.
Originally, Bai Qi was planning to buy a pet encyclopedia first, but who would have thought that President Qin's secretary would actually send one to him directly, saving him some money again.
It is this appearance that always reminds Bai Qi of a certain ape-man creature who rated human combat power as five.
[Name]: Hellfire Ghost Fire
[Race]: Dead Soul
[Growth Level]: Level 1, Level 4
[Bloodline Level]: High Elite
[Racial Skills]: Ignite, Candle Soul, Wailing
[Introduction]: The souls living in the land of death, the flames on their bodies will cause both physical and mental damage to the enemy.
"The first six levels were all about ice and undead, but the seventh level is about fire and undead. Hmm, that makes sense."
Bai Qi looked at the enemy in front of him with some numbness, and said to Alpha: "Alpha, be careful, physical attacks are useless against this guy."
Crunch.
(Good master. )
As a fellow undead, Alpha naturally knows the peculiarities of the dead souls.
It has no entity, is in pure soul form, and can only stand by and watch helplessly against ordinary physical attacks.
However, he is not only capable of physical attacks.
Alpha glanced at the Hellfire Will-O'-the-Wisp that was still hovering outside the frozen area, then he rushed forward waving Frostmourne, and everything he passed was frozen by ice.
The Hellfire Will-O'-the-Ghost clearly had no intention of fighting Alpha head-on. It swam flexibly in the air, constantly dodging Alpha's attacks, while waiting for an opportunity to contact Alpha, leaving flame marks all over Alpha's body.
"Is this, lit?"
[Skill Name]: Ignite
[Skill Introduction]: Leave a mark by contacting the enemy. When the energy accumulated by the mark reaches a certain level, will-o'-the-wisp will ignite and burn the enemy.
It's also a time-delay skill.
Bai Qi passed a series of instructions to Alpha through the soul contract. Alpha's attack method suddenly changed. He completely gave up defense and focused on attacking the Hellfire Ghost Fire.
"ah!!!"
Alpha's fierce attack made the Hellfire Ghost Fire a little flustered. A shrill wail suddenly came from its twisted body. Alpha's soul fire suddenly trembled violently, and the movement of his hands also stopped.
And the moment Alpha stopped, the ignition marks left by the Hellfire Will-O-Wonder exploded together, and the blue flames instantly enveloped Alpha, gradually condensing into the image of a candle above his head.
[Skill Name]: Candle Soul
[Skill Introduction]: Use your own soul as nourishment to burn the enemy. The candle will go out only when one side's soul is burned out.
Oh my god, there is such a way of fighting where both parties die?
This clearly shows that he is confident in the advantages of his own ghost system.
Bai Qi smacked his lips and complained in his heart about the abnormal skill of Hellfire Ghost Fire, but he had no intention of commanding Alpha to resist. He let the Candle Soul Fire burn Alpha clean bit by bit, without even leaving any residue.
Because it was also affected by the Candle Soul, the Hellfire Will-O-Wonder's size became much smaller, but it was obvious that it was not affected at all. It floated to the place where Alpha disappeared and looked around with some confusion.
Although the Candle Soul will reduce its own soul, as long as it defeats the enemy, it can also get some feedback. But now there is nothing, which makes the Hell Flame Ghost Fire very confused.
Crunch!
(Look at my Shadow Lotus!)
Just when the Hell Flame Will-O'-the-Ghost was confused, the ice where Alpha disappeared suddenly broke, and ice-blue bone spurs drilled out from the ground, like a blooming flower, surrounding the Hell Flame Will-O'-the-Ghost.
Seeing this, the Hell Flame Ghost Fire tried to escape immediately, but these bone spurs were all wrapped in a thick layer of ice, and there were dark auras flowing in them, which directly ignored the flames around the Hell Flame Ghost Fire and pierced into its body.
ah!!!
With a sharp cry, the Hellfire Ghost Fire's body exploded instantly, and when only a small ball of fire was left, it was frozen by Alpha.
Crunch.
(Master, can you try this?)
Alpha quickly returned to normal and carefully dragged the core of the Hellfire Will-O-Wonder to the front.
"Can the Revenant type also be used?"
Looking at the small ball in the ice that could go out , Bai Qi felt confused, but he still pressed it.
Click.
Several cracks suddenly appeared on the evolution egg, and the progress increased again.
The ghost is really good!
[Name]: Evolution Egg (Black Iron Egg 68%)
【Status】: Activated
When I fought the Ice Ghost Guard and Ice Swordsman before, I gave them 5% each. Now the Hellfire Ghost Fire has given me another 10%. The Evolution Egg has been increased by more than half.
According to the current trend, another upgrade is just around the corner.
Bai Qi loosened his palm, and Alpha squeezed it hard, crushing the core of the Hellfire Ghost Fire. A shriveled branch appeared on the open space in front of the two of them.
【Name】:Soul-nourishing tree
[Introduction]: The branches of a special plant can enhance the spiritual power of the dead souls and other creatures. However, it will cause irreversible damage to living things, so use with caution.
The first-time reward for the sixth level is still Ice Spirit Iron. I thought the seventh level would be some fire attribute material, but I didn’t expect it to be some ghost attribute material.
After seeing the introduction at the beginning, Bai Qi immediately planned to take it for himself, but after seeing the supplement at the end of the illustration, he had to give up.
Damaging the body to strengthen the soul is not something that can be used by humans. Only inanimate undead creatures can handle it.
But this thing is also good for Alpha. After all, whether it is the skeleton system or the soul system, the soul is crucial.
Bai Qi put away the soul-nourishing wood, let Alpha rest for a while, and then continued to walk to the next floor.
After receiving the first-pass rewards for the sixth and seventh floors in succession, Bai Qi felt relieved. After all, Xia Xuan should not be able to overtake him.
Eighth floor, here I come!
…
Under the Tower of Lamentations.
The door banged open, and Xia Xuan and his Mechanical Tyrannosaurus appeared at the bottom of the tower together. Some traces of burns could still be vaguely seen on Mechanical Tyrannosaurus' body.
The ferocious beast on the seventh floor suddenly turned into a fire ghost, which made it very difficult for Xia Xuan, who had modified the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex specifically to target ice enemies, to fight against it. He only held on for a while before retreating.
Although Machine Tyrannosaurus has strong firepower, it is still at a disadvantage against these incorporeal ghosts.
"Xia Xuan? Why did you come down? Who is that person up there who is still challenging the eighth floor?"
Seeing Xia Xuan appear, Han Wei looked at the still flashing eighth-level rune with some confusion.
"Humph! I don't know!"
Hearing Han Wei's question, Xia Xuan snorted in annoyance, walked aside and stopped talking.
"It can't be him, right?"
Gao Cheng and Han Wei looked at each other, and Bai Qi's figure appeared in their minds.
"Impossible! That guy is just a skeleton soldier, how could he possibly climb to the eighth floor!"
Lu Yuan, who had always maintained his aloof appearance and waited to be spoken to, finally couldn't help but speak after hearing the conversation between the two, but Gao Cheng was bewildered.
"Skeleton soldiers? Isn't Bai Qi's pet Shadow Bone Spur?"
“…”
