Chapter 157 Can I say that I have also absorbed it? (Two chapters in one)
Moreover, under the continuous interference of Ryan, the blood and flesh tree spirit was also very uncomfortable. The penetrating wound on its body caused by the high-level divine art "Sword of Judgment" has not been completely healed until now.
If it were based on the previous healing speed, it should have been self-healed five minutes ago.
But now because of Ryan's interference, the huge wound has only shrunk from the original basin diameter to the size of a fist.
The fundamental reason is that most of the roots that could have been used to heal the wound were cut off by Ryan and fell to the ground in pieces.
The intelligence of the blood and flesh tree spirit is not low. It knows that it can't continue like this.
If it continues like this, it may really be worn to death by this little thing in front of it.
I saw that its upper body suddenly stood up, and the inside of the penetrating wound on its body, the tiny tentacles that were originally squirming, all shrank back at once.
The next second, the bloody tree spirit was facing Ryan, performing a special move of flying and death rolling!
Ryan's pupils shrank, and he quickly rolled sideways to avoid it.
Just now, the bloody tree spirit just attacked and swallowed the slightly injured Templar directly into his stomach.
So, although the bloody tree spirit had been using its roots to fight Ryan, Ryan was always on guard against this big move of the bloody tree spirit.
If this big move hits Ryan head-on, it can be said that there is no chance of survival!
Sure enough, the opponent used it again.
The bloody tree spirit's bloody mouth passed by Ryan closely. Its huge body and super-fast movements gave it great overall kinetic energy.
In an instant, the nearly 20-meter-long bloody tree spirit passed by like a meteor, knocking a big hole in the thick white marble wall of the temple.
Suddenly, smoke and dust rose up!
In addition, Ryan also discovered that once the blood and flesh tree spirit's main body began to participate in the attack, its self-healing would completely stop, perhaps because of too much energy consumption, or because the main body would tear the wound when launching an attack.
No wonder it had not participated in the attack just now.
The blood and flesh tree spirit stood up again and shook its huge body. It seemed that the action of hitting the wall just now also made it a little dizzy.
However, when it woke up and found that it had not hit Ryan just now, it seemed extremely angry!
After confirming Ryan's position again, the blood and flesh tree spirit roared to the sky.
The next second, the blood and flesh tree spirit inhaled a large amount of air around it, and its entire body expanded twice. Then, from its bloody mouth, it spewed out a large amount of blood-colored mucus, 360 degrees without dead angles!
This scene was like a volcanic eruption, almost covering the entire temple hall. Even Rudolph and the other two who were hiding in the corner of the temple hall could not avoid it!
Facing the witchcraft-like attack of the flesh and blood tree spirit, Rudolf's face changed greatly, and he secretly regretted not taking measures earlier.
Now, even if he and Machini used their last killer moves, it would be too late!
Templar Machini immediately raised the steel shield in his hand and blocked Rudolf.
Lagre was half-crouching with a sturdy body, staring at Ryan with a pair of beautiful eyes, holding the blood-patterned steel shield in her left hand, her slender and powerful thighs tense, and the whole person was like a female leopard ready to go.
Lagre should have planned to rush to Ryan immediately and use the shield in her hand to block the spit of the flesh and blood tree spirit for Ryan.
But the next second, she was stunned!
The same situation also happened at the top of the hall. The eagle incarnation of the black-haired elf was about to dive down and cast the "hurricane technique" for rescue, but soon, she also stopped diving.
The not-so-big body in front of the bloody tree spirit did not retreat but advanced, and calmly took out a scroll from his arms!
"I originally wanted to keep this witchcraft scroll 'Extreme Cold Wind' as a backup for the canonization test, but I didn't expect to use it here." Ryan said softly with a little distress.
While talking to himself, his hands did not slow down at all. Ryan quickly injected a trace of mental power into the witchcraft scroll 'Extreme Cold Wind' and slightly controlled the direction of release.
In an instant, an extremely cold airflow appeared out of thin air and blew dozens of meters in front of Ryan, almost completely covering the huge bloody tree spirit.
The next second, the extremely cold airflow confronted the blood-colored mucus spewed by the tree spirit.
The power of this cold air far exceeded Ryan's expectations. The blood-colored mucus was quickly frozen as soon as it touched it, and it quickly fell to the ground like a large piece of ice, and shattered with a "click".
And this is far from over. After freezing the blood-colored mucus, these extremely cold air currents still have some energy left, and they rush straight to the body of the blood-colored tree spirit.
And the spit just now is also very energy-consuming for the blood-colored tree spirit.
It was seen gasping for breath, and the wounds that penetrated its body expanded again. Except for a few large roots, all other roots on its body had fallen off.
Facing the extremely cold air current, the blood-colored tree spirit did not have time to make an effective dodge or resistance.
Soon, the roots and even the body of the blood-colored tree spirit were covered with thick white frost and crystals. At the same time, its movement speed and attack speed were greatly reduced, as if it had suddenly changed from a flexible monkey to a staggering old woman in her eighties or nineties.
In addition, due to the huge difference in temperature in the air, a large amount of white fog filled the hall of the temple at this time, obscuring Ryan's figure, and even the abnormally large blood-colored tree spirit could not be seen clearly.
At this moment, Ryan kicked his right foot hard, swung the sword in his hand, and shot towards the body of the bloody tree spirit like an arrow.
More than ten meters along the road, there was a continuous "crackling" sound. It turned out that these white roots fell to the ground one after another.
Under the influence of low temperature, these originally tough roots have become extremely fragile.
Therefore, dozens of white tentacles were cleared by Ryan in an instant, and a long passage leading directly to the trunk of the bloody tree spirit appeared!
Ryan shook the glimmering giant sword in his hand, and the next second, he had arrived at the side of the trunk of the bloody tree spirit.
As Ryan's left hand rested on the rough skin of the bloody tree spirit, a low incantation sounded from his mouth.
That's right, Ryan was casting the lv2 witchcraft 'Scorching Touch' that he mastered!
After just over two seconds of chanting, a red light appeared on Ryan's palm and quickly sank under the rough skin of the bloody tree spirit.
With 22 points of mental power, the power of Ryan's Scorching Touch has been further improved.
Although it is not known how much it can be improved, it must be much more than before.
Hmm?
In an instant, Ryan felt as if he had ignited a gunpowder barrel!
It seemed that the bloody tree spirit's body was full of gasoline, and it just needed a fuse.
And his 'Scorching Touch' was the match.
Ryan's face changed instantly and he retreated quickly.
The next second!
"Boom!!"
The bloody tree spirit screamed!
I saw that the area that Ryan had just touched had a huge hole half a person's height, and the blazing flames were continuing to burn the body of the flesh and blood tree spirit at the wound.
The surrounding roots were desperately trying to extinguish the flames at the wound, but because of the witchcraft scroll "Extreme Cold Wind" that had been hit before, the speed was slow, so the fire extinguishing effect was not obvious.
This made the burning gradually become more and more intense.
Ryan was overjoyed!
Obviously, this shows that his previous judgment was accurate.
This flesh and blood tree spirit, whose name contains the word "tree", was unexpectedly afraid of fire.
Ryan felt that he should thank the first person who named the flesh and blood tree spirit.
Accurate naming contains the key to defeating the enemy.
Almost without hesitation, Ryan decided to beat the fallen dog!
Borrowing a saying from a great man, that is, "It is better to pursue the enemy with the remaining courage, rather than to seek fame and imitate the tyrant!" '
Ryan immediately exerted force on his feet again, and the whole person quickly attacked the blood and flesh tree spirit. Once he found a suitable opportunity, he would release the witchcraft "burning touch" on other parts of the blood and flesh tree spirit.
Although the blood and flesh tree spirit instinctively tried its best to avoid Ryan's attack, after being hit by the witchcraft "extreme cold wind", its body, including the roots, moved much slower, and it was completely unable to avoid Ryan's attack and approach.
So, in just over ten seconds, many parts of the blood and flesh tree spirit were ignited by Ryan!
And with the successive explosions of multiple parts, it seemed to have caused some kind of chain reaction!
Suddenly, the nearly 20-meter-long body of the blood and flesh tree spirit stopped moving. It no longer avoided Ryan's attack, but trembled slightly.
The next second, the huge body of the blood and flesh tree spirit suddenly expanded and was full of fiery red.
At this moment, its body seemed to be filled with magma, like a volcano about to erupt.
Ryan was immediately shocked and retreated quickly!
He was still worried whether the Blood and Flesh Tree Spirit had other trump cards, or some desperate tricks.
But the next second, under Ryan's gaze, the Blood and Flesh Tree Spirit's huge body suddenly shrank back and quickly shrank, while emitting a large amount of pungent and smelly black smoke.
The densely packed roots on its body seemed to have lost all their vitality at once, hanging down lifelessly, motionless.
It seemed that the expansion and contraction just now had released all the energy in the Blood and Flesh Tree Spirit's body at once.
For a while, the Blood and Flesh Tree Spirit was silent!
At this time, the system prompt sounded:
[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, experience value +1291]
[Your skill Burning Touch has been improved, experience value +35]
[You have experienced a battle, Knight (Super) experience value +276, Wizard Apprentice (Super) experience value +112]
Ryan saw it and felt relieved.
Fortunately, although this flesh and blood tree spirit is strong, there is no second stage or transformation.
At this moment, it should be dead.
Huh?
What is this?
Ryan noticed keenly that under the corpse of the flesh and blood tree spirit, he seemed to sense a special faint breath.
This breath was the first time Ryan had come into contact with it. It was full of vitality, vastness and spirituality. In addition, it seemed to be accompanied by a trace of unspeakable evil?
Immediately, Ryan quickly cut open the bottom of the flesh and blood tree spirit.
A walnut-sized crystal and a light golden tree wrapped in a fist-sized transparent film appeared in front of Ryan.
Hiss!
This is
what he just sensed. It should be the breath of the light golden tree. The light golden tree is light golden throughout, like a divine object, but the sharp-eyed Ryan can detect that there seems to be a trace of black air flowing under its light golden appearance.
The breath of the crystal is quite similar to the breath of the evil energy crystal dropped by the evil spirit knight, but it is more intense and vast.
After thinking for a while, Ryan used the tip of his sword to pick up the crystal first.
As soon as he held it in his hand, the system prompt sounded:
[Ding! Detection found unknown absorbable energy, yes/no to absorb? (Note: After absorption, it can be converted into designated professional experience points.)]
Sure enough!
This should be some kind of energy body that is more advanced than the evil energy crystal.
After working so hard for so long, it's finally time to reap the rewards.
Ryan was delighted and chose "Yes" without hesitation!
The next second, the thick black energy that had been flowing in the walnut-sized crystal instantly passed through Ryan's arm and rushed into his body.
Just like last time, Ryan himself still did not feel any discomfort this time, and the entire absorption and transformation process was over.
[Ding! A total of 1536 points of extraordinary experience points have been converted. Please choose Knight (Extraordinary)/Wizard Apprentice (Extraordinary)/Beast Tamer (Extraordinary) to upgrade. ]
Tsk tsk!
The flesh and blood tree spirit is awesome!
Ryan found that he was a little in love with the evil creature of the Mother Tree Sect!
This reward is too generous!
After a little thought, Ryan decided to continue to choose Beast Tamer (Extraordinary) to add points.
The reason is also very simple. He can slowly accumulate the professional experience of Knight or Wizard Apprentice through fighting, but not Beast Tamer.
In addition, he is currently Beast Tamer (Extraordinary) lv3 (12/500). After choosing Beast Tamer to add points, he can upgrade two levels again.
But if you choose to be a knight or a wizard apprentice, you can only upgrade one level.
As for the reason for not prompting the blacksmith, it was because in Ryan's opinion, the blacksmith was not an extraordinary profession after all, and it was not difficult to upgrade.
As Ryan silently chanted "Beast Tamer!" in his
heart, two consecutive system prompts appeared:
[Congratulations, your beast tamer
(extraordinary) professional level has been upgraded! ] [Congratulations, your beast tamer (extraordinary) professional level has been upgraded! ]
Seeing the beast tamer (extraordinary) level on the panel from lv3 (12/500) → lv5 (48/2000), Ryan couldn't help but smile brightly.
Continue to look down.
At the bottom of the panel, it was prompted with the remaining attribute points: 3, and the remaining skill points: 5.
Among them, the remaining attribute points have been restored to three points again, and the remaining skill points have reached an astonishing five points.
This made Ryan feel that he was getting richer and stronger the more he fought!
Since there was still a light golden tree that he hadn't checked, Ryan didn't immerse himself in the joy of upgrading for too long, but immediately took out the fist-sized light golden tree from the flesh and blood tree spirit.
At this time, the system prompt sounded again:
[Ding! Detected that the host has obtained the mother tree seed, triggering the job change - Mother Tree Sacrifice (Extraordinary)! ]
[The prerequisites for the job change to Mother Tree Sacrifice are: 1. Knight (Extraordinary) lv3 or above, Wizard Apprentice (Extraordinary) lv3 or above; 2. Physical fitness 15 points or above, spirit 18 points or above; 3. Believe in the mother tree or use the mother tree seed. The current conditions are met, yes/no to change to Mother Tree Sacrifice (Extraordinary)? ]
Hiss!
Looking at the job change information prompted by the system, Ryan's eyes suddenly widened!
This is the first time he has seen a job change with such high prerequisites.
It actually requires both the knight and the wizard apprentice to reach lv3 or above.
Ryan's brain was working fast. After a few seconds, he resolutely clicked "No!"
The reason was very simple. The Mother Tree Sect was listed as a cult by the Empire. If he changed his job to become a Mother Tree Priest (Extraordinary), he would naturally stand on the opposite side of the Empire. Ryan did not think that the Extraordinary profession of Mother Tree Priest could bring him benefits that matched the huge risks!
[Ding! The test found that the Mother Tree Seed contained a large amount of life energy. Yes/No to absorb it? (Note: After absorption, the Mother Tree Seed will be destroyed.)]
Huh?
Can it be like this?
After a little thought, Ryan chose "Yes!"
Since he didn't change his job, he would naturally use it to absorb it, at least it would be used on himself.
In an instant, a warm current that made Ryan feel so comfortable that he couldn't describe it was from the pale golden Mother Tree Seed. It couldn't describe one tenth of it!
At this time, four system prompts also came quietly:
[Congratulations! Your physical attribute has been improved! ]
[Congratulations! Your strength attribute has been improved! ]
[Congratulations! Your agility attribute has been improved! 】
【Congratulations! Your spiritual attributes have been improved! 】
This.
All attributes +1!
The mother tree seeds are awesome!
Please give me a dozen!
Ryan, who came back to his senses, really didn't expect that there would be four system prompts as soon as he arrived!
At this time, the white mist began to gradually dissipate.
In the corner of the hall, Rudolph, Lagre and Machini stared blankly at the flesh and blood tree spirit that was obviously dead in front of them, and Ryan standing with a sword beside them.
The three of them didn't know what to say for a while!
The situation changed so quickly!
In half a minute, the flesh and blood tree spirit that had just had the upper hand was now motionless at Ryan's feet.
At this moment, Ryan was covered with a layer of light golden light in the sunlight shining through the gap in the hall, and he looked particularly tall.
And the flesh and blood tree spirit that was originally like a hill was now charred all over and emitting bursts of black smoke, completely becoming a background board for the golden light.
At this time, Rudolf also realized something, frowned, walked forward and looked at Ryan carefully, and then slowly asked: "Ryan, the large-scale frost attack you just performed should be witchcraft, right?"
Because his vision was blocked by Machini, he did not see the scene when Ryan took out the witchcraft scroll.
Ryan looked up and found that the expression of the head priest Rudolf was both happy and slightly worried. He immediately understood what was going on.
It seems that Jenny was right last time.
The church and the supporters of the orthodox knight path are quite disgusted with witchcraft and wizards.
Ryan expressed his understanding of this, because this is almost the struggle for orthodoxy in the fairy tales of the previous life, or the difference between capitalism and society in modern society.
"That's right, Priest Rudolf. I just used a witchcraft scroll seized from a wizard apprentice, called 'Cold Wind'."
Rudolf's brows relaxed and his complexion improved a lot when he heard that it was from the spoils of war. He nodded and said, "That's good. Although witchcraft is powerful, there are many unpredictable dangers in the process of learning."
After a pause, Rudolf continued, "And divine arts are not only more powerful but also safer. Ryan, I hope you understand this."
Ryan naturally would not argue with Rudolf about this issue at this time. He smiled slightly and nodded again.
However, suddenly, Ryan looked around in confusion. He felt a vague sense of being watched after he killed the flesh and blood tree spirit.
The feeling of being spied on was very weak. Ryan looked up again and found that a few birds fluttered away from the top of the hall. So he shook his head slightly and thought to himself:
"Maybe I am too sensitive! I think the curious peeping of some birds and beasts is the peeping of intelligent creatures."
At this time, Rudolph said something that made Ryan's heart skip a beat.
Rudolf muttered in confusion:
"It shouldn't be! After the death of an evil creature of the level of the Flesh and Blood Tree Spirit, there should be at least a large piece of evil energy crystal."
"In fact, normally, there should be evil energy fragments left. How could there be nothing left?"
"Ryan, have you seen any crystals similar to those dropped after the death of the Evil Knight?" Rudolf turned around and asked.
"Haha, I really haven't. By the way, Priest Rudolf, is it possible that the high-level divine art 'Sword of Judgment' you just released is too powerful?" Ryan laughed.
Sorry!
Priest Rudolf, there is this thing, but I have absorbed it.
I can't spit it out for you.
"That's a possibility." Rudolf frowned and thought for a while, then nodded, as if he agreed with Ryan's statement.
"Priest, let's retreat now." Ryan, who was a little guilty, said hurriedly.
After all, the high-level divine scroll "Sword of Judgment" played a very important role in the process of killing the flesh and blood tree spirit, but the problem now is that Ryan has "taken all the benefits for himself".
"Wait, there should be something of the Mother Tree Sect here that needs the protection of the flesh and blood tree spirit."
"In other words, there must be something here that is very important to the Mother Tree Sect, otherwise, the flesh and blood tree spirit and the evil spirit knight would not be born for no reason."
"Uh"
Could it be that thumb-sized light golden sapling?
Priest, can I say that it has been absorbed by me?
Ryan secretly glanced at Priest Rudolph who was looking around, and felt even more guilty.
But at this moment, he could only remain silent and follow Priest Rudolph, pretending to search around the hall of the temple.
Suddenly, the Templar Knight Machini shouted in the middle of the hall: "Priest, there is a stone slab here!"
Ryan raised his eyebrows, huh? This... is really something?
The two walked over quickly and saw that Machini had dug out a one-meter-long obsidian slab under the initial position of the tree spirit. Something was written on it in spiritual language (Akkadian).
Rudolf nodded and said confidently, "It should be this thing."
"Is the flesh and blood tree spirit guarding this thing?" Templar Machini asked curiously.
As a Templar of the church, he had never learned this kind of spiritual language. On ordinary days, he had no time to learn combat skills and pray, so naturally he could not be distracted to learn other things.
However, as the head of the church, Rudolf did have some research on spiritual language.
"The great mother tree follows the humblest servant. Pray to you."
Ryan was surprised and looked at it carefully for a few times, but later, he was not interested.
Because if he was not mistaken, this should be a ritual text or prayer for sacrifice, that is, the ritual language used during sacrifice, used to pray to the so-called mother tree.
Obviously, this is almost meaningless to him, and he is not a mother tree priest.
If Ryan had just changed his job to become a 'mother tree priest', this prayer would be very useful and he could study it seriously, but now, it is really useless.
"Machini, dig this thing out and take it back." Rudolf said after thinking for a while.
Although Rudolf thought it was just an ordinary prayer after translating it, he thought carefully and believed that the obsidian slab that the blood and flesh tree spirit focused on guarding should have some special purpose or meaning.
However, it may be because he is not knowledgeable enough in this area, so he can't see the importance of this obsidian slab at once.
Looking at the Templar Machini 'grunting' to dig out the heavy obsidian slab, Ryan looked at Rudolf suspiciously and thought:
"Priest, do you really think that the blood and flesh tree spirit is guarding this slab?"
Soon, Ryan and his party returned to the entrance of the temple garden.
At this time, seeing Ryan and his group coming out, the night watchmen and security guards immediately surrounded them.
After a conversation, they heard that there was a nearly 20-meter-long monster inside, which made everyone smack their tongues!
Judging from the expressions of everyone, they all looked lucky.
Otherwise, it is not difficult to see from the bodies of the fallen Templars that ordinary people like them would definitely suffer heavy casualties, or even be wiped out!
After figuring this out, the short Matteo and other night watchmen looked at their own security lieutenant Ryan with gratitude.
——After
Ryan and his group left the temple hall, the eagle on the top of the hall flapped its wings and flew down.
When it was about to land, the eagle suddenly transformed into a black-haired elf. The tall and slender figure walked calmly to the corpse of the flesh and blood tree spirit and checked it out.
"Strange, the witchcraft scroll that the human knight just tore open was obviously frost-related, but the flesh and blood tree spirit obviously died of fire-related witchcraft." The black-haired elf looked puzzled.
She had just witnessed the entire battle, but soon after Ryan tore open the witchcraft scroll 'Cold Wind', a thick fog filled the entire hall.
At this time, no one except Ryan himself could see clearly what Ryan did at that time.
So it was not surprising that the black-haired elf had such doubts.
"Could it be that the human knight just cast a fire witchcraft?"
The black-haired elf quickly thought of a possibility.
"Perhaps, it's because the other party brought a fire witchcraft scroll."
"Huh? This breath is..."
The black-haired elf's beautiful eyes suddenly widened twice, her cherry mouth opened wide, and her face was full of disbelief.
Because she just sensed a trace of the remaining breath of the elven mother tree seeds.
She was naturally very familiar with this kind of aura, it was almost exactly the same.
"No, this should be the aura of the dark mother tree seed that the Mother Tree Cult believes in!"
The next second, the black-haired elf reacted.
