The Witcher starts by getting the inspiration panel

Chapter 74 Clearing Missions (for further reading)

Hearing Melo's anxious tone, Li Cha knew that something should have happened.

Immediately, Li Cha followed Melo and hurried all the way to the second-floor laboratory of Mentor Seles.

Along the way, Li Cha tried to ask Milo if she knew what happened, but Milo looked around, shook her head, and said that she would know when she got to the mentor.

Seeing that Milo was so careful, Li Cha immediately understood that Milo must know something, but he couldn't make it public.

The wizard apprentices of all levels encountered along the way also looked hurried!

As soon as the two arrived on the second floor, they heard the voice of Mentor Seles from inside.

"Both of you come in! Cough cough." This time, Seles was not doing the experiment, and it seemed that he was waiting for Richard on a special trip.

As soon as Li Cha entered the room, his face turned pale with fright. His mentor was pale and bloodless, and he was still coughing non-stop.

It looked like he was seriously injured.

"Teacher, are you injured?"

"I'm fine, just a small injury!" Seles waved his hand and said.

"Did you all see the scene in the afternoon? I can't disclose the specific content because it involves top secrets. But as my disciples, you two, I hope you can prepare early.

Tomorrow, the school should organize all wizard apprentices to participate in wartime missions. "

Li Cha's face turned cold, and he couldn't help asking: "Teacher, has the situation collapsed to this extent?"

If the opponent is really a shadow hunter or even a higher level, it is barely reasonable for the second and third level wizard apprentices to participate in the battle, but if the first level wizard apprentices can also participate, it is no different from sending them to death.
Seeing Li Cha's expression, Seles couldn't help laughing: "Li Cha, what are you thinking, the opponent has been repelled by us, but the official wizard of the school is still stationed near the passage, in case the opponent makes a comeback.

cough.
In the previous battle, some vassal races of the night elves were defeated and fled in all directions, so they sent wizard apprentices to clean up these miscellaneous fish.

At that time, the third-level wizard apprentices will fight independently, and the second-level wizard apprentices and first-level wizard apprentices will be mixed into teams to clean up.

Generally, a second-level apprentice leads three to four first-level apprentices, but this is not clear yet.

cough.
And you, Li Cha, since you are the chief freshman, although you have not yet participated in the second-level promotion assessment, the school has already recognized that you have the strength of a second-level wizard apprentice, so it is very likely that you will lead a small team by yourself.

Cough. The top three in the freshman qualifying competition will have this arrangement. "

After Li Cha finished listening, he remained silent.

"What? Scared?"

"No. It's just" Li Cha hesitated for a while, not knowing what to say.

"Li Cha, you have to look at the problem from a different angle. This is both a challenge and an opportunity for you! For example, this time, I have obtained a material that I have been looking for for a long time - the eyeball of the dark murloc.

I always thought that the things that had disappeared from the main plane still existed in the Underdark.

So, I believe, Li Cha, you will definitely have your opportunities and your gains.

Moreover, the path of wizards to pursue the truth will never be smooth sailing, all you have to do is to strengthen your strength and remove all obstacles! "

Li Cha, who came out of Seles Laboratory, was in a very heavy mood!
But the only thing worth mentioning is that Li Cha has already made an appointment with Milo-senpai. If they can choose their own team members tomorrow, Milo-senpai will contact Hans, Karina and another old student to join Li Cha as the leader. team.

The joy of winning the new chief has long since disappeared.

Unexpectedly, the school would directly recognize the top three in the qualifying competition as the strength of the second-level wizard apprentices, and thus need to lead a group of first-level wizard apprentices to participate in wartime missions.

This made Li Cha feel very uncomfortable.

The vassal races of the night elves are trash, but the first-level wizard apprentices are also trash.

Trash vs. trash!
If I had known this before, I might as well just hang on, but if I hang on, I won't have the finger of the banshee in my hand.

However, the teacher's words were not wrong.

Including my golden finger, I have to kill monsters to get energy points, and the steady flow is still not suitable for me.

Moreover, although the mission of this eradication is full of crises, it is also accompanied by opportunities.

Maybe I can get a lot of energy points again, so as to quickly improve my strength.

It is also possible to obtain rare alchemy materials like a mentor.

However, preparations still need to be strengthened.

The scorched wooden short stick buried outside the school's resident had to be dug out immediately, and then sold directly, and replaced with an item that would improve strength immediately.

In this situation, I can't take care of so much.

Moreover, he is now shrouded in the halo of the chief freshman, even if others have doubts, but without real evidence, the school will definitely not do anything to him.

Also, the egg of the Soul-devouring Demon Spider had to be brought along.

When killing an enemy, by the way, you can feed it with the enemy's soul, killing two birds with one stone.

In the end, the zero-level witchcraft of summoning skeletons must be raised above the level of proficiency.

I heard from the instructor of the paid course "Introduction to Summoning the Undead" that there is a certain chance of summoning two skeleton soldiers at the proficient level of summoning skeletons at the same time.

At the master level, there is a small chance of summoning three skeleton soldiers at the same time.

But if he wanted to summon the Skeleton Warrior, Li Cha's current mental strength was not enough.

It is said that the skeleton warrior can only be summoned directly after the total amount of mental power reaches a certain standard.

Otherwise, you can only use the method of slowly cultivating, constantly killing enemies, and using the dead energy of the enemies to strengthen the skeleton soldiers.

Dead air, that is, death energy, is one of the categories of dark energy.

Similar to ice-type energy, ice-type energy is a type of water-type energy, or mutated energy.

After returning to the dormitory, Li Cha immediately planned to start upgrading the zero-level witchcraft summoning skeleton.

[It is found that the host is casting zero-level witchcraft to summon the skeleton, is/is it consuming energy to obtain the inspiration for zero-level witchcraft to summon the skeleton? 】

Glancing at the slider from 0-1000, Li Cha thought for a while, then decided to drag the slider to the 1000 position, and chose "Yes!"

This time, Li Cha decided to use up all the energy points, and try to see if he could directly raise the summoned skeleton to the master level.

With a whirlwind, Li Cha came to the dream space. This time, the scene was a huge and empty hall.In the center of the hall, the phantom of Li Cha was possessed, holding the finger of the banshee also inlaid with a crystal ball in his hand.

With the sound of a low-pitched incantation, the miniature magic circle carved in the crystal ball was immediately projected on the ground in the center of the hall.

With the crystal ball that rubbed the magic circle in advance, the whole summoning process became very simple.

A few seconds later, Li Cha's tentacles of mental power penetrated into that strange plane again.

In this way, the process of summoning, penetrating, communicating, and ending is repeated in a cycle.

After hundreds of times, the communication efficiency of Li Cha's mental tentacles is getting higher and higher, from only one-on-one at first, to one-on-two now, and finally, finally, one-on-three.

And this time, Li Cha deliberately tried to choose skeleton soldiers with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.

As for why he did this, Li Cha considered it after careful consideration. According to his own combat characteristics, he deliberately chose this way, because Li Cha knew that his characteristic was super powerful long-range attacks.

Therefore, if you can have defense-oriented sword and shield skeleton soldiers to resist the enemy in the front and attack from the rear, then whether you use witchcraft or bow and crossbow to attack, it will be more handy.

Considering his own safety, it would be best if he could summon two sword-shield skeletons, one to defend in front and the other to protect him, wouldn't it be great!
If he succeeds, even if he encounters an enemy like William with super high attack power and fast moving speed, he will let the other party know why the flowers are so popular.

After his soul returned to his body, Li Cha suppressed his desire to summon in the room.

Glancing at the panel, [Witchcraft]: Summon Skeleton (Master 7%, Mystery: Triple Summon)

I was overjoyed, it seemed that my feeling in the dream was correct, I could indeed summon three skeleton soldiers at the same time, and, unlike the certain probability that the teacher said, if I used the secret technique, I would definitely be able to summon three skeleton soldiers soldiers.

The difference between just two words is a world of difference!
In the eyes of ordinary necromancer apprentices, the relatively common witchcraft of summoning skeletons has been played by Li Cha.

Huh!Manipulating skeletons (26% proficient), Li Cha couldn't help being greatly surprised.

I remember that I was clearly at the level of proficiency before, so why is it at the level of proficiency.

Could it be that this trick is somehow related to the zero-level witchcraft summoning skeletons? After all, it has been improved so much that it is difficult to explain it with the commonality of witchcraft.

It's a pity that now my energy points have been exhausted and I can't try again.

Originally, he could try to upgrade the trick of manipulating skeletons to the master level first, and see if it would be of any benefit to the zero-level witchcraft of summoning skeletons.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Cha planned to dig out the scorched wooden short stick first, because that place is not far from the school, only five or six miles away, and it wouldn't take too much time to go back and forth.

Moreover, it is just right to take this opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the skeleton soldiers and their new tactics in the field.

Covered tightly, Li Cha walked out of the school's residence alone.

After walking a few hundred meters, Li Cha saw that there was no one around, and immediately began to use witchcraft to summon the skeleton.

With the injection of spiritual power, the crystal ball on the banshee's finger instantly projected a summoning circle with a diameter of three meters on the ground.

In just over a second, three skeleton soldiers holding swords and shields crawled out from the center of the glowing green summoning circle.

But at the moment of success, Li Cha suddenly had a feeling of being hollowed out, and his head was dizzy for a while!
"No, this is a sign of mental exhaustion!"

Li Cha immediately took out a tube of vitality potion and gulped it down.

As Li Cha sat down in a circle, the three sword shield skeletons took Li Cha as the center very conscientiously, and stood at three points to protect them.

For this, Li Cha, who was resting, was very satisfied!

An hour later, Li Cha, who was holding a slender package in his hand, started his return journey. He happened to meet a sharp-toothed crocodile along the way, and Dang even ordered a sword and shield skeleton to attack.

Although the sword and shield skeletons were obviously at a disadvantage, the sharp-toothed crocodile's mouth was full of blood, but it was helpless against the skeleton soldiers for a while.

It seems that a shield is still useful!
Immediately, Li Cha sent another Sword Shield Skeleton.

Under the siege of two sword and shield skeletons, the sharp-toothed crocodile began to add wounds. As time passed, the number of wounds gradually increased, and the sharp-toothed crocodile began to retreat.

But Li Cha couldn't let it slip away as he wished, and sent out the last Sword Shield Skeleton.

Under the siege of three sword and shield skeletons, the sharp-toothed crocodile didn't even have a chance to escape, so it was consumed alive on the spot.

Summoning three sword and shield skeletons to guard his side, Li Cha fell into deep thought for a while.

The fighting power of the sword shield skeleton is weaker than he expected, because the fighting power of a sharp-toothed crocodile is about the same as that of a quasi-knight among humans.

In this comparison, Li Cha's three sword shield skeletons combined are about the same as a formal knight, and their attack power is really not high.

But in terms of defense ability, it is still possible.

With an idea, Li Cha stuffed a tube of Fire Dance Star on one of the sword and shield skeletons.
