Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 286 Goodbye, Alais...

"Nico, Luke."

Wei En flashed away, and the sixteen phantom clones dispersed, trying to cast charm spells.

But, the next second!

All the phantom clones were instantly shattered by Alais.

Wei En came to a slowly sinking three-masted sailboat on the edge of the port. He stood tall and tall on the top of the mast and calmly stared at the figure like black lightning.

"It's useless, Director Alais. I am no longer the investigator who first joined the Secret Investigation Department."

"is it?"

Alais's speed did not slow down at all, and after gliding past and shattering the phantom clone, he came to Wei En's side in an instant.

"Arrow of Disaster!"

boom!

Black lightning struck the three-masted sailing ship, and the entire hull was reduced to black powder under the erosion of the source of the disaster.

It seems that he can't go on like this. Once he can't take him down, when the battle on Asmir's side is over, he will die in his hands.

Wei En raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized, no wonder the "brave" saint from Dawn Church hadn't shown up yet. It turned out that Menor's space teleportation ability helped.

Wei En frowned slightly, is he the one from Custer City State?

Thinking of this, Alais took out a statue that was as tall as him.

Alais did not deny it. He patted the ship's bow statue that had swelled several times beside him and said with a chuckle: "Thanks to Menor. Without him, I would not have been able to escape the pursuit of the 'heroic' saint, nor would I have been able to obtain this piece." Forbidden objects, come to Alexey Island again..."

what is that? A legendary creature from the world of the undead?

Thinking like this, Wei En looked at the approaching figure and snapped his fingers.

"Gia, Lir, Jins."

Wayne took out the silver harmonium from the space ring and held it in his hand, and asked: "Are you going back to Custer City State? Director Alais."

"Dipper, Rocko, door!"

"..."

The moment he hit, his original strength was almost destroyed by the bone palm.

"Little guy, is the enemy this time... a disaster?"

[Note 2: The bow image of Taboo 0-91 Homecoming will randomly throw people within meters into a different space after losing control. 】

Strengthen the origin...

[You witnessed the bow image of "Forbidden Object 0-91 Homecoming", the trajectory of your fate has changed slightly, and the current encounter progress is 25/100. Rating: A weird thing with an anchor in this world! Special rewards: Origin +5, Resilience Level +5, Spirit Level +5. 】

"Of course!"

"Hoho, good original power, but it's a pity..."

Wei En secretly thought: If you want to improve your strength as quickly as possible, you still have to fight often...

"Yes."

[Note 3: Method to remove "Forbidden Object 0-91 Homecoming's Bow Portrait": After losing control of the Homecoming, it was very eager for the touch of the captain of the Homecoming. Therefore, rubbing it three times will stop it from getting out of control. 】

Toughness level: 22348

Spirit level: 22348

Origin: 1523 (1524) (Seal 1 point of origin)

Survival points: 137340

The thousands of abyss monsters he had just killed and devoured had brought him a considerable improvement, especially the reward for killing a great demon.

boom!

"This is……"

"Menor?"

Alais dodged the spell attacks, even the bone palm, he dodged like lightning.

"Such a spell has no effect on me!"

As the gray mist rose up, a huge crystal white bone palm descended from the sky and struck Alais.

Alais twisted around subconsciously and then retreated!

Do not,

It's about killing!

Only by killing more people will his power grow rapidly!

"Ok?"

Alais frowned and looked at Wei En with a gloomy face.

The four original sub-bodies, except the driver, each cast spells and shot towards Alais.

As he spoke, the five fingers of the falling bone palm spread out and bent instantly, blocking the path that Alais must pass.

It must be an undead creature with a very high extraordinary level!

Wei En...Why does he always have some spells with very unique effects...

Within the rune circle, the voice of the King of Bones came out gloomily.

Wei En stared at Alais' figure closely and replied calmly: "This time it is a disaster!"

Wei En flickered away again and appeared in mid-air, his red eyes flickering slightly as he glanced at the panel attributes in his mind.

[Note 1: Forbidden object 0-91 The bow portrait of the Homecoming will absorb alien origin from a different space and enhance the user's own original power after use. 】

Before the King of Bones could finish saying what was a pity, he disappeared into the rune circle due to the timing of the spell.

"Bray, Franco, Ava!"

For a time, elements such as lightning, frost, and flames shone one after another.

"I know you have also joined the Eternal Life Society. In fact, my relationship with them is also very good. How about..."

As Alais spoke, he rubbed the ship's bow statue, and several strange sources of power emerged from his body. He continued: "Why don't you give Tina to me, and I will let Menor help you become the new immortal." Council elder?"

"Ah!"

"Menor, I will go find him, but you - you must die here!"

Wei En sneered, put the harmonium to his mouth, and played it.

Slow and bright music echoed in this empty and messy port, and almost everyone felt the lack of power in their bodies.

Even Salvatore Samuel Capo, who has four pairs of bone wings in the sky, is no exception!

[You use "Forbidden Object 2-77 Karel's Whisper", the trajectory of fate changes slightly, and the current encounter progress is 85/100. Evaluation: Another loss of strength... Special rewards: 20 survival points, +5 origin, +5 spiritual level, +5 toughness level. 】

[You gain gains: your spiritual level is increased by fifty percent, your toughness level is increased by one hundred percent, your attacks are blessed by the shadow source, and your original sub-body 'ghost' obtains a temporary spell brand - Soul Sting...]

"Damn it! Who is it!?"

Mubarak, who was turning into a shadow to attack Salvatore, instantly returned to his original appearance. His shadow origin was inexplicably unusable after the mouth organ music.

Unlike when it was dissolved before, this time he could feel that the shadow source was still in his body, but he couldn't use it, let alone consume it.

For a moment, he was stunned on the spot, and there was only one voice left in his mind: Dead!

I could barely resist it originally, but now I can't even defeat it...

No, even the ability to escape is gone!

The same is true for Asmir next to him, but he is better than Mubarak, just because of the loss of mental strength...

Salvatore frowned, he could feel that he was missing a spell rune brand.

"Don't make such a fuss. Isn't it just that the source is gone? I also lost a spell brand. Did I say anything?"

He looked at Wei En, who had four original sub-bodies below, and his eyes fell on the ghost's forehead. There was indeed an extra spell mark there, and the level was exactly the same as the one he had lost...

"But now, you can wait and die."

Although he didn't know what was going on, Salvatore didn't mind getting rid of the Calamity Cult members in front of him first, and then killing Mubarak.

If he really escaped, at worst he would ask his eldest brother to go to the Southern Continent.

I believe that the Shadow School will figure out what to do!

"Go on, I haven't tried the power of the source of disaster yet!"

As he spoke, Salvatore's bone wings vibrated behind him and he went straight towards Asmir.

Below, Alais was shocked and angry, staring at Wei En.

He had just used the power of the ship's bow statue to obtain the amplifying effect of the alien origin, but he did not expect that he would feel weak immediately afterward.

The amount of terrifying resilience that disappeared actually consumed less than half of his own source of disaster.

Coming and going, does it mean there is no increase? !

"You...your forbidden object..."

"I said, I am different now than before!"

Wei En replied in a calm tone. His original strength did not increase much, but the toughness level and mental level in his body increased horribly, making him feel full of strength.

Especially when he moved his hands and feet, there was a dim shadow attached to him, giving his every movement the blessing of the shadow source——

Toughness rating: 22358 (44716)

Spirit level: 22358 (33537)

Origin: 1533 (1534) (Seal 1 point of origin)

Wei En turned off the panel and his attributes increased so much. No wonder he felt the vigorous power himself!

Immediately afterwards, he did not dodge as before, but cast the newly learned spell for the first time——

"Domingo, add, Naxi!"

The ghost looked excited. After reciting the incantation, it turned into a gray mist and fell onto Wei En's head.

In an instant, the ring formed by the imprint of necromancy runes appeared in the middle of Wei En's eyebrows, and a pair of eyes emitted two dim red lights.

"Well."

"Is this what it feels like after merging souls?"

Wei En clenched his fist. He felt that he could control every part of his body, even a hair, to exert his own original power.

And his magic——

[You are affected by the soul-melting spell, fuse the original sub-body "ghost", and obtain the benefit effect: the spell level of your necromancy system +1! 】

Add one level to the level of all necromancy spells...

The corners of Wayne's mouth turned up slightly, he looked at Alais and said, "Go on, if we delay it any longer, Tina will get impatient!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he recited the incantation that had been chanted by ghosts before:

"Cechel, add Biardini!"

The next second, a terrifying scream echoed around!

"not good!"

Alais secretly thought it was not good, and quickly blocked his ears, while his figure shot backwards and away.

but--

[The Howl of Fear (Death) spell you released hits Alais Coulibaly, causing him to fall into fear and despair for 20 seconds. Evaluation: Oh? This looks a bit cool, not bad... Special rewards: +30 survival points, +1 spiritual level. 】

Damn, damn...

Under the gaze of that terrifying being, Alais couldn't even move a finger.

When my consciousness was blurred, there was only this thought left in my mind - would it be nice to die like this...

Immediately afterwards, Wei En's body suddenly swelled several times, and under the blood boiling spell, his whole body was like a volcano about to erupt.

boom!

With a kick of his feet, he appeared next to Alais and punched him down.

"This punch is for myself!"

boom!

Alais fell into the port, and the turbulent water swept over and poured into the deep pit that had just appeared.

Wei En's face was calm, his figure flashed, and he stepped on his head.

"This kick is for myself."

It was just me when I was forced to leave Custer City-State!

boom!

"This punch is for Tina!"

Would you even hurt a little girl like that? !

boom!

"This time, it's for the people in Custer City who died because of you!" Wayne punched Alais one punch after another, one kick heavier than the other, and he kept hitting Alais.

Even if his body is protected by the source of disaster, the recovery effect may not be very good when he loses consciousness.

Not only that, along with his fists, the two original sub-bodies of the Secret Master and Red Ghost were also releasing spells.

Even so, it took him nearly a minute to completely eliminate Alais.

[You use the Claws of the Undead (Death) spell to injure Alais Coulibaly. Evaluation: Some improvement... Special rewards: +10 survival points, +1 mental level, +1 toughness level. 】

【…】

[You kill Ales Coulibaly. Evaluation: It’s a boring battle, but once your strength reaches a certain level, you can kill instantly with just a few gestures! Special rewards: +100 survival points, +5 spiritual level, +5 toughness level. 】

[When you discover the origin that can be swallowed, should you use the soul-eating spell? 】

Wayne looked at Alais, who was almost in disgrace, and couldn't help showing a bit of complexity on his face.

If he could have had such power when he was in Custer City State, would he still choose the same way as before?

Soon, he nodded mentally.

Will do!

Tina, a little girl like that, has been in despair since she was born - just like when she first entered this world, she was unfamiliar with everything around her and could only passively accept the arrangements of fate.

"Goodbye, Director Ales Coulibaly..."

"Adagua!" (Soul Devouring Spell!)

[You use the soul-eating spell to swallow part of Alais Coulibaly’s origin, and your origin is improved. Evaluation: The source of disaster is Haha. Special reward: Origin +10. 】

After doing this, Wei En picked up the bow statue that fell on the ground, looked at it and threw it into the space ring.

There is one more taboo item——

[You touch "Forbidden Object 0-91 Homecoming's Bow Image", the trajectory of your fate changes slightly, and the current encounter progress is 30/100. Special rewards: Origin +5, Resilience Level +5, Spirit Level +5. 】

The process of killing Alais this time was much smoother than he imagined...

Well, thanks to the Salvatore legend in…

At this time, Asmir, who was fighting fiercely with Salvatore in the sky, felt the dissipation of the source of the disaster below, and cursed trash in his heart.

"Oh? You did a good job, little guy." Salvatore also noticed the end of the battle below and glared at Asmir, "Just stay there and let me kill you so you can show off to the little guy. "

"Humph!"

Asmir snorted coldly. Taking advantage of the gap between Salvatore's attacks, he retreated instantly, landed on the high wall of the city, and looked at Wei En: "I will come to you again!"

Before he finished speaking, he melted into the shadows and wanted to escape from the island.

"Want to run?"

Salvatore glanced around, his bone wings vibrated twice, and he instantly appeared outside a building in the city-state, slashing it with the death scythe in his hand.

"Leave it to me...huh?"

The sickle only hit part of his body, but more of it disappeared in a strange way.

"You're running so fast, but you still want to know the inside story about the old calendar thing!"

Victoria's etching knife...is that woman's weapon...

Is she really dead?

Thinking of this, Salvatore lifted the spell and returned to his original appearance, his face became a little pale.

Tsk, the source consumption is too high... Really, what a loss if the little guy doesn't join the Taboo Research Institute!

On the other side, Wei En looked at Salvatore who was chasing after him, and his eyes fell on Mubarak.

"Wizards of the Shadow School..."

"Humph!"

Mubarak stared at him in shame and did not reply. I deeply regretted coming to help Alais this time.

In the end, none of his goals were achieved, but because of Salvatore's arrival, his originality was greatly reduced.

Now I am threatened by a great wizard...

"Killing you won't arouse the hatred of the Shadow School, right?"

Wei En landed lightly beside him, still holding the mouth organ in his hand. Looking at Mubarak in front of him, there seemed to be a voice echoing in his mind: Kill him, devour him, kill him, devour him!

kill him?

Kill a legendary wizard and he should get a lot...

Thinking like this, Wei En punched him——

Ok?

Salvatore appeared next to him and stopped him, "Wait a minute, little guy."

Wei En frowned and asked doubtfully, "You want to let him go?"

"Of course not." Salvatore shook his head slightly, glanced at the horrified Mubarak and chuckled: "He is still somewhat useful, it would be a pity to kill him now."

"Oh."

Wei En resisted the temptation to get rewards for killing Mubarak, removed the use of the mouth organ, and breathed a sigh of relief.

award……

The urge to get rewards is not as threatening as Salvatore's strength!

"You..." Mubarak's face turned pale. He did not feel lucky that he did not die in Wei En's hands. He glared at Salvatore and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"What do you say?"

Seeing that his shadow origin power had recovered, Salvatore hugged his neck and said in a low voice: "Only with you here can it be proven that you are the perpetrator. I believe that the Shadow School must have paid more."

"Don't even think about it!"

Mubarak's face changed slightly. These damn robbers, thieves, and bastards have long been salivating over the inheritance of their shadow school.

He could imagine how disastrous the losses would be once the school agreed.

"It's not up to you!"

Salvatore slapped him on the abdomen and waved his source to instantly print a small rune circle on it.

"you!?"

Mubarak looked at the magic circle in front of him and fell to the ground. He was even worse than before when he couldn't use the source. This time he couldn't even feel the shadow source.

"You, you kill me!"

"I told you I won't kill you." Salvatore asked with a smile: "How does the Blood Spirit School's forbidden mark rune array taste?"

"That's right. Your Shadow School has a magic circle with similar effects. I hope you can blackmail it from there this time... um, learn from it."

"impossible!"

"Then it depends on the courage of your chief!"

Salvatore casually took out a coffin and threw Mubarak into it.

Wei En was speechless for a while. It seemed that the act of borrowing magic knowledge from other schools was engraved on every ghost wizard.

"Okay, when it's over over there, we can leave this island."

"Ah."

Wei En looked at the sea in the distance, where there was a legendary favored person from the Desire Sect, fighting the deep sea beast.

But get out of here...

"Legendary Salvatore, you want to take me back to the school?"

"What, you still don't want to go back?" Salvatore chuckled: "Are you reluctant to leave the outside world, or are you afraid of the school?"

reluctant?

Not really.

But he still had a few things to finish.

at the same time--

Wei En pursed his lips and said softly: "I have always had a question."

"tell me the story."

"I once devoured a shadow intelligence officer, and the source improvement I received was much greater than that of others... So, I'm worried..."

Salvatore was a little surprised, "I didn't expect you to have encountered other ghost wizards before."

"Yes." Wei En's heart tightened.

This was his long-standing concern and one of the reasons why he did not dare to return to Ghost.

Salvatore was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "You are right to be worried."

"Ok?"

"In fact, since the founding of Ghost, there have always been some occult wizards with impure minds. There is a unified name for them within the school - Devourer!"

Salvatore said with an ugly face: "The higher-ups are also aware of their existence. Although there are measures to prevent them, they have not been eliminated for several epochs."

"Many arcane wizards with extremely powerful talents like you were killed and devoured by them."

Wayne frowned, "Then why not clean them up directly?"

It was difficult for him to understand why Ghost left such a threat in the school.

Could it be that those wizards who do whatever it takes to gain power are also part of the school?

"On the one hand, they are hidden very deep, and several cleanings have no effect. On the other hand..."

"Some of the Devourers have also made great contributions in several crises of the Guarding School."

"Therefore, most of the chief leaders in the past chose to turn a blind eye in order to prevent the school from being damaged."

"Since you have swallowed it before, you should know how tempting such an improvement is to wizards. Even I..."

Having said this, Salvatore paused for a moment, his eyes showing a bit of sadness, and said in a low tone: "Even I, there was a time when I couldn't resist that temptation."

"you?"

Wei En was startled and secretly on guard.

"Don't be afraid," Salvatore waved his hand and said, as if reading his thoughts, "That was all before the new calendar."

"In short, you don't have to worry about the devourers of the school. Those people may be extinct soon..."

Before the new calendar? More than a thousand years ago?

"Does the legendary wizard live so long?"

Wei En nodded. Without those threats, he would be protected if he returned to the school.

But fortunately, the legendary wizard in front of him was not the Devourer, otherwise he might not be able to escape even if he wanted to.

"Yes, if you transform into an undead creature like Boras, you can survive forever if you are not killed."

Salvatore smiled, "However, I don't want to be an undead, as that would lack a lot of fun in life."

"You can't feel the temperature of the experimental body, and you can't smell the blood. The difficulty of the research will be much higher..."

Wayne: "..."

This is really a unique reason.

"Back to the topic, are you sure you don't want to return to the school?"
