Chapter 89 Virtual Fire Burning Body Technique LV3! New Features!
Li Zhen immediately said, "You saved our lives, these black mullet people can take as much as they want."
"As for your proposal just now, we also agree to it!"
"Then let's do it!"
At Zheng Cheng's command, several people immediately took action.
Qin Zheng, Yao Zhixue, Cai Shen and Li Zhen went to support Bai Jingqi.
He himself, together with Song Chaoyu and Liang Feifan, went to rescue Li Jiao.
After both parties complete their tasks, they will reunite to snatch the Heart of the Earth!
When Zheng Cheng was about to collect the corpses of the black-pulp fishmen, he heard Cai Shen running into the group of corpses again, looking for something.
"Rookie, what are you doing? Take some time to rest, you still have to rescue Bai Jingqi!"
"Brother Cheng! Come and see, there are gems on the bodies of these fishmen!"
"Um?"
Several people's eyes lit up slightly, and they quickly ran over to search for it.
Sure enough, some of the fishmen had a dusty grey bead around their necks.
When I picked it up and took a look, it turned out to be a special gem!
[Item: Gray Moonstone]
[Attribute: Gem]
[Rank: 1 star]
[Effect: Can be inlaid on armor, cloth armor, chain mail, vestments, helmets, shoes and other equipment to gain a slight layer of water element shield. ]
[Description: The mysterious stone hidden deep in rivers and lakes has gained special energy by absorbing moonlight and water elemental power.]
"Good stuff, put it away!"
Several people hurriedly started looking for these gray moonstones on the fishman's corpse.
Qin Zheng came over and asked curiously: "What are you looking for?"
"Special gem." Zheng Cheng threw a gray moonstone over: "It can be embedded in equipment to increase the ability of the equipment."
Qin Zheng's eyes lit up slightly: "It turns out that those special gems in the family were brought out from the secret realm. No wonder they are so rare."
"Do you know?" Zheng Cheng asked, "We also found another special gem from the orcs."
"Of course I know." Qin Zheng threw the gray moonstone back: "Although our family's special gemstones are precious, we also have quite a few."
"But I warn you, these gems are huge pitfalls!"
"What's the meaning?"
Qin Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Equipment needs to be drilled by a blacksmith or alchemist before gemstones can be inlaid. The rule for inlaying gemstones is that one-star gemstones must be inlaid first, and then two-star and three-star gemstones can be inlaid, and so on."
"And the special gems we found in the secret realm are mostly one-star. If we want to find two-star gems, we must let some skilled blacksmiths, alchemists and other life professions upgrade."
"Three one-star gems can be upgraded to two-star gems; three two-star gems can be upgraded to three-star gems... and so on."
"Also, there is a success rate for upgrading gems. If you fail, all the gems will be destroyed."
Qin Zheng shrugged and said, "Even with the strength , there are only three seven-star gems in the family, and these are accumulated over hundreds of years!"
"Ordinary members of the tribe can only inlay three-star gems at most!"
"So that's how it is." Zheng Cheng suddenly realized. According to what Qin Zheng said, it was really a big trap!
If you count, a seven-star gem would require... 2160 one-star gems!
hiss……
Zheng Cheng took a deep breath.
This doesn't even include the chance of failure.
If you fail a few times in the middle, it will be so painful.
Zheng Cheng asked again: "What is the price of a first-class gemstone?"
"That depends on the type of gem." Qin Zheng said, "For example, the sunstone that is most popular among physical melee professionals for increasing attack power and the moonstone that increases spell defense are worth about 100 gold coins for a one-star gem."
"Two stars are five hundred gold coins, and three stars are three thousand gold coins."
"Once it reaches four stars, the price will increase tenfold!"
"For ordinary professionals, it's good enough to be able to use three-star gems."
Qin Zheng counted on his fingers again: "The equipment of the professionals includes weapons, armor, pants, hats, shields, and jewelry such as rings, bracelets, and earrings... A set of three-star gems costs about 30,000 to 50,000 gold coins..."
"Damn! This is such a rip-off!" Zheng Cheng cursed inwardly, stroking the gray moonstone and said, "According to what you said, special gems should be consumables. Do the Night's Watch need these?"
"Of course!"
Qin Zheng said: "A one-star gem can be exchanged for 10 merit points."
"Of course there is a limit. We can't redeem unlimitedly, otherwise the Night's Watch's merit system would have been in chaos long ago."
"Since it is valuable, let's save it first."
Zheng Cheng made a prompt decision and said, "Okay, don't look for it yet. I'll collect all the bodies and look for them slowly after we get out!"
After saying that, he activated the space ring and collected all the corpses of the black merman on the ground.
"Oh, there's one more thing." Zheng Cheng came to Li Zhen again: "In order to save your sister, I need to borrow something from you."
"What is that?" Li Zhen asked curiously, "As long as my sister can be rescued, I will agree to any condition."
"The egg you just snatched from the black murloc. Since the black murloc values that egg so much, I can use it to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
Li Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up: "Good idea!"
"Don't even mention borrowing it. I don't know what this egg is for, so I'm just giving it to you."
After saying that, Li Zhen took out the reddish egg and handed it to Zheng Cheng.
Taking advantage of the rest time, Zheng Cheng directly ate the black fish heart's blood to the maximum.
30 pieces!
His agility increased by another 60 points, and his spirit also increased by 30 points.
Even the toxin resistance has increased by another 30%.
The most important thing is the underwater breathing ability, which has also increased by 30%!
With the underwater breathing potion he got from Li Zhen and others, he could now be considered half a murloc.
In addition, he also swallowed the gallbladders of the two black water snakes.
Spirit increases by 6 points again, Agility increases by 3 points, and Poison Resistance increases by 4%.
Male function…also increased by 2%!
Finally, he swallowed the orcs' blood to the maximum.
Constitution, increase by 30 points!
Strength, increase by 30 points again!
Now his four-dimensional attributes have reached:
【Constitution: 94】
[Strength: 115]
[Agility: 85]
[Spirit: 70]
The strength attribute directly broke through the 100-point mark.
The other three attributes are also above 70!
This attribute is enough to crush anyone present!
Everyone had rested enough and prepared to split up.
"Take care of yourself!"
"Take care of yourself!"
By the river, Qin Zheng and Zheng Cheng said goodbye, and the seven of them separated immediately.
Li Zhen and Qin Zheng took out four floating talismans and gave them to Yao Zhixue and Cai Shen.
The four of them slowly drifted towards the opposite shore.
Zheng Cheng, Song Chaoyu and Liang Feifan dived underwater.
There were two giant python soul beasts surrounding each of them, blocking the approach of the water and allowing them to breathe temporarily.
As soon as Zheng Cheng entered the water, he immediately felt a cool feeling flowing through his body.
A trace of cold oxygen seeps into the body through the skin, maintaining the circulation of oxygen in the body.
Breathe underwater!
This made Zheng Cheng swim quickly in the water like a fish.
The three people underwater were unable to communicate, so Zheng Cheng waved his hands and asked the two to follow his instructions and swim towards the bottom of the water.
The water flow around was calm and dark, but thanks to the faint glowing creatures swimming in the water, one could still see clearly.
Especially since Zheng Cheng also has the guidance of the central radar life monitoring technology, there is no problem at all.
After descending about forty or fifty meters, Zheng Cheng suddenly stopped and grabbed back with his left hand.
Song Chaoyu and Liang Feifan stopped quickly.
This is the hand gesture for encountering an enemy.
On the central radar life monitoring map, a dozen black mermen were swimming towards them at an extremely fast speed.
Behind them, there are more enemies!
Zheng Cheng waved his hand again, and Song Chaoyu made a gesture with one hand. Suddenly, ten pitch-black black-paste fish-man soul beasts swam out from behind him and pounced on the group of black-paste fish-men!
These black-paste fish-man soul beasts were specially condensed by Song Chaoyu when he was on the shore.
In an instant, more than ten black fishmen and soul beasts started fighting each other.
Zheng Cheng took advantage of this opportunity to take out a one-handed sword from his space ring.
This one-handed sword is about five feet long, heavy and sharp.
But with Zheng Cheng's strength of 115 points, it was as easy as a toothpick.
While the group of black fishmen were entangled by the soul beasts, Zheng Cheng grabbed the one-handed sword and shot it out like a javelin.
“Puff!”
Although it was under the water, this one-handed greatsword still tore through the water at an extremely fast speed and pierced through a black murloc!
The sticky blood immediately gushed out, making the surrounding black fishmen even more ferocious.
Zheng Cheng flipped his hand, grabbed another javelin and shot it out.
He used the same trick again, and javelins and long swords flew out like arrows, easily slaughtering all the black fishmen!
On the other side, Song Chaoyu's beautiful eyes were fixed on Zheng Cheng.
Zheng Cheng...how can he be so awesome!
This is happening underwater, and there is still such a strong force .
How did he do it?
It's a pity that he actually rejected my suggestion. It would be great if he could be the same as before.
Unlike Song Chaoyu, Liang Feifan felt completely desperate.
He looked at Zheng Cheng with extremely horrified eyes. He couldn't understand how Zheng Cheng did it.
A three-star priest, why does he have such strong power?
Even in the water, it can exert such strong combat power.
Is it a natural supernatural power?
Or does his parents have some special bloodline?
In this world, there are indeed many mixed-race people due to countless invasions by foreign races.
Although they are not professionals, the power and talent inherent in their blood are in no way inferior to those of ordinary professionals!
"How did Zheng Cheng do it?"
"Night Watchman? Or does he have some secret that no one knows about?"
He subconsciously grabbed the magic sword, his heart pounding.
"If I knew this secret, wouldn't it be..."
"That's right!" Liang Feifan's eyes flashed suddenly, as if he remembered something.
"I remember that his mouth kept moving as he walked along, as if he was eating something?"
"Especially those two snake gallbladders..."
"The secret to his strength lies in the food he eats?"
"As long as we catch him and force him to tell us these secrets..."
"no!"
He frowned again: "I am no match for him with pure strength now. I can only catch him by sneak attack. If I fail, it will be bad!"
"Or, I can sell this secret to Qin Zheng and the others..."
“Hehehe, the children of aristocratic families would probably be willing to pay a large price for this secret!”
“Gugugugu~”
“Gugugugugu…~”
The three were just about to take action when they saw dense black spots swimming towards them again in the distance.
Still the black murloc!
This time there were more black merfolk, at least seventy or eighty of them, surrounding the three people in a fan shape.
Especially the strong smell of blood and the corpses of their own kind that permeated the water made them even more angry.
At this time, Zheng Cheng took out something.
The seventy or eighty black merfolk present immediately fell into a state of madness.
What Zheng Cheng just took out was that red...egg!
The coral baby inside the egg membrane seemed to be trembling slightly.
“Gugugugu~”
“Gugugugugu~!”
The leading black merman let out a few strange cries, and dozens of his fellow mermen behind him immediately rushed up.
The ten black-paste fish-man soul beasts that were blocking the way were immediately submerged.
Zheng Cheng stretched out his hand and a bloodthirsty staff appeared in his hand.
A strange mental wave immediately fell on the leading black fishman.
Virtual Fire Burning Body Technique!
"boom!"
An illusory flame immediately burst out from its body and burned fiercely!
Affected by the corpses of his own people, and especially stimulated by the seizure of the tribe's sacred objects, the already furious Black Slurry Fishmen were unable to stop the burning of the Void Fire Body Burning Technique.
In just one second, its spirit and body were burned into a mummy, and it was killed instantly!
The corpse floated silently in the river, drifting with the current.
With a thought, another virtual fire burning body technique fell from the sky and landed among the school of fish.
"Boom! "
The flame only burned for a second before it was killed instantly!
In such a short period of time, the army of black murlocs had already rushed over.
Zheng Cheng waved his hand, the Yunxiao Sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed with it!
"puff!"
The water surged, cutting the first black fishman that rushed out into two halves!
At this time, the giant python soul beast that enveloped Song Chaoyu and Liang Feifan also pounced over.
He tore and bit these black fishmen.
Zheng Cheng was like a fish in water, wielding the Yunxiao Sword and killing and slashing indiscriminately, and there was no enemy that could match him at all.
While fighting, he continued to use the Virtual Fire Burning Body Technique, burning these black pulp fishmen so that they could not stop him at all.
In just a few minutes, these seventy or eighty black fishmen were slaughtered by Zheng Cheng and his two companions!
Including the orcs and murlocs he had killed before, Zheng Cheng’s level directly reached LV12!
Song Chaoyu and Liang Feifan also reached LV11.
After adding all the free attribute points to the spirit, Song Chaoyu cast a spell again, and another four black merman soul beasts crawled out from the corpses.
The level of Zheng Chengxu's Fire Body Burning Technique was also upgraded to LV3!
[Your skill, Virtual Fire Burning Body Technique, has been upgraded to level 3! ]
[Virtual Fire Burning Body Technique LV3: Mutated skill, instant, group (1-3 people). Consumes one's own mental power to trigger virtual fire in the target's body, which then spreads to the entire body, causing a large amount of damage to the target. The greater the target's mental fluctuations and emotional changes (including anger, sadness, fear, etc.), the higher the quality of the virtual fire triggered, and the higher the damage. 】
[You have activated the 1st characteristic of the Virtual Fire Burning Technique! ]
[Feature 1: Burning the heart and soul. After the virtual fire burns, it can touch the target's soul in a short period of time, causing its soul to burn in a short period of time.]
"Burning souls?"
Zheng Cheng's eyes flashed, he didn't expect that the characteristic of the Virtual Fire Burning Body when upgraded to LV3 would be to directly burn the target's soul!
He subconsciously glanced at Song Chaoyu.
This skill of mine... seems to be a perfect counter to hers.
Song Chaoyu saw Zheng Cheng's eyes and smiled sweetly.
“Gugugugu~”
