After replenishing himself at home, Liu Nian embarked on another journey to find the twisted resentment.
With Xiao Hei's company, Liu Nian was no longer lonely. He patted its little head and sent it off to scout.
Liu Nian planned to continue the Northern Expedition.
Without the interference of infected people on the streets, their advance was much faster this time.
It wasn't until they reached the place where they had chased Lin Bao last time that the number of infected people gradually increased.
Fortunately, after the battle at the hospital, his magic points soared and successfully broke through the 800 mark, allowing him to upgrade to a level four ghoul.
After a system notification stating "You cannot summon any more," Liu Nian successfully upgraded the ghoul to level four.
The fangs and claws of the level 4 ghoul were further enhanced, and one more was added to its number.
A scholar should be viewed with new eyes after three days' absence!
Currently, Liu Nian can summon four skeletons and four ghouls. The Soul Devouring talent has greatly enhanced Liu Nian's strength.
Looking at the remaining magic points on the panel, Liu Nian decided to try to reach the 1,000 magic point mark today.
Then all the infected people along the way suffered, becoming stepping stones for Liu Nian to break through the barrier.
With a whole class of summoned creatures by his side, he killed anyone who stood in his way, as if he were in an empty field!
When you reach a gas station, a special monster crawls out of it.
The monster was pale yellow all over, with long, thin, and sharp mouthparts. It had a transparent wing on each side of its back, about half the height of a person, and looked like a flea magnified hundreds of times.
Upon seeing this flea-like monster for the first time, Liu Nian's anus instinctively tightened.
Liu Nian thought to himself that being pricked by a flea's mouthparts would definitely leave him with a lifelong trauma.
Insects? What if they're Zerg units from StarCraft? It's not impossible.
This game can't be understood using common sense.
As usual, we first send a skeleton to test the flea monster's skills.
There was no problem engaging the enemy; the flea monster sprang to the nearest skeleton with a leap of its hind legs.
His jumping ability is amazing; this jump covered a distance of three or four meters.
Upon seeing this, Liu Nian quickly retreated.
It's definitely a close-range attack. It can't recognize living people; does it lack intelligence? I'm not entirely sure, so let's not take too many risks.
The nine skeletons had already begun to form a circle around the flea monster, and once the encirclement tightened, it would trap the flea monster inside and kill it.
The flea monster seemed to sense the danger and quickly put down on all fours before the skeleton could close the encirclement.
It bent its four limbs, then pushed off forcefully, instantly springing into the air and easily escaping the encirclement.
Having pinpointed the location of the flea monster's landing spot, Liu Nian commanded the ghouls to surround and annihilate it.
The ghouls were much faster than the skeletons, and after receiving the order, they rushed towards the flea monsters.
At this moment, Tiffany finished casting her fatigue spell, and with a wave of her wand, the spell enveloped the flea monster in the sky.
The flea monster was noticeably less agile after landing, and the ghoul in front rushed up and swung its claws at its head.
Seeing the ghoul approaching, the flea monster stood up, its hind legs on the ground, its hook-like forelimbs blocking the ghoul's claws.
The two claws interacted, and the sound of metal clashing together rang out.
For a time, no winner could be determined.
The ghouls behind it then fell down beside it.
Seeing that things were not going well, the flea monster tried to use the same trick again.
After bending the limbs, one should jump.
With the aid of fatigue magic, plus the fact that ghouls are much more agile than skeletons.
The ghoul took a step forward and pressed its claws down from above. If the flea monster jumped up, it would inevitably run into the ghoul's claws.
Seeing that the airspace above was blocked, it could only change its course from jumping to crashing, heading straight for the ghoul whose claws were raised in the air and whose belly was exposed.
Before the ghoul could react, its claws struck its abdomen, sending it crashing backward and sprawling on the ground.
Fortunately, the ghouls arrived and began to scratch at the flea monster rolling on the ground with their claws.
Under Liu Nian's command, the skeletons retreated a distance, forming an outer encirclement to prevent the flea monster from escaping.
Liu Nian and Tiffany stayed away from the outer perimeter but within the spell's range to prevent the flea monster from getting close.
Surrounded by the ghouls in a cross shape, the flea monster, unable to fight back with its two fists, suffered repeated injuries. Its carapace could not withstand the claws' scratches, and several places broke open, oozing dark green fluid.
Even worse, Tiffany's poison magic was now complete, directly enveloping the flea monster's head.
After being attacked repeatedly, the flea monster, seeing that it could not escape, simply disintegrated on the spot.
The head and body separated, and then split in two.
Strangely, it did not die; its head grew out of its body, and its body grew out of its head.
It instantly split into two tiny flea monsters, each one smaller than the original.
After swinging its limbs and feeling much more fluid, the two flea monsters charged at the ghoul beside it.
Distracted by this strange move, the ghoul was scratched several times by the flea monster.
After the split, it seemed as if Tiffany's magic had been broken.
To preserve Tiffany's magic points, Liu Nian let it rest in place.
Seeing this, Liu Nian felt that the flea monster only had these tricks, and then began to cast fear magic while muttering incantations.
The shrunken flea monster no longer had its previous jumping ability, and the skeleton's outer perimeter began to shrink.
Once the two-second cast time was up, a skull icon with a trembling mouth appeared above the head of the flea monster targeted by Liu Nian's spell, and then its body began to run around uncontrollably.
Seeing that the Fear spell was effective on the flea monster, Liu Nian was overjoyed and continued to cast Fear on another flea monster.
Unable to protect itself after being afflicted by the fear spell, the flea monster was killed by the combined efforts of the approaching skeletons and ghouls. Soon after, another flea monster followed in its companion's footsteps, being killed by the summoned creatures in fear. After letting out a wail, it collapsed at the entrance of the gas station.
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully killing the Vampire Beetle and gaining 20 experience points.]
Vampire beetles? You're unlucky to have met me; I'm a bunch of bloodless undead creatures.
After the battle, as usual, I checked my loot: thirty-two game coins, one item card, and a twisted resentment.
After picking up the game coins, Liu Nian's hand once again exceeded three hundred game coins.
It's an item card, and a good one at that!
【Fog of Deception】: After use, it can maintain invisibility for 30 seconds. The potion will be ineffective if hostile creatures appear within two meters.
Note: You won't use it for anything bad, right?
It has special uses for both surprise attacks and escapes.
"use"
After a flash of light, a transparent glass bottle, about the size of a palm, appeared in Liu Nian's hand, containing a wisp of gray smoke.
Carefully place the bottle into your shirt pocket; the more props, the better.
After picking up the twisted resentment from the ground, Liu Nian walked into the gas station ahead.
The gas station shop wasn't very big, about 30 square meters. Looking around, I didn't find any other monsters.
Liu Nian took out a scroll and prepared to summon the Yin spirit.
